Lu Wei sipped his tea, then set the cup down and continued speaking.
“The Mid-Tier Primordial Energy Martial Art created by visualizing a Level 9 Disaster Beast is a masterpiece of our Blue Planet’s martial arts civilization. It’s one of our most refined techniques,” he said, his tone measured. “Not only does it grant a bone-tempering method unlike any other martial artist’s, but it also allows your physique at this stage to surpass others by leaps and bounds.”
“If you don’t cultivate a Five-Star-rated Primordial Energy Martial Art during the Mid-Tier stage to lay a solid foundation,” he added, “you’ll never break through to the Seventh Realm in the future.”
Lin Qi’s eyebrows shot up. He hadn’t realized that advancing to the Seventh Realm required such a prerequisite. To reach that level, he would need to master a Five-Star Mid-Tier Primordial Energy Martial Art—and its visualization must center on a Level 9 Disaster Beast.
“Once you succeed in cultivating this martial art,” Lu Wei explained, “it will feel as if your body has shattered an invisible shackle. Your physical form will absorb energy far more efficiently, boosting your Vital Energy stat dramatically.”
“If you want to break through the Fourth Realm quickly, you have no choice but to cultivate this technique,” Lu Wei concluded.
Lin Qi nodded. With his current Vital Energy stat at 300, training at his usual pace might take a full year to reach the Fifth Realm. That was unbearably slow. He resolved to purchase the Mid-Tier Primordial Energy Martial Art as soon as he returned home.
Dean Liu suddenly interjected, “Lin Qi, I advise against cultivating the Mid-Tier Primordial Energy Martial Art immediately.”
Lin Qi frowned. “Why?”
Lu Wei stepped in. “Mid-Tier Primordial Energy Martial Arts, especially Five-Star-rated ones, are vastly different from lower-tier techniques,” he explained. “They’re not only far more difficult to master but also require specific resources—like the blood of a Level 9 Disaster Beast. That alone costs at least ten million.”
Lin Qi’s brow furrowed deeper. This is going to be expensive, he thought.
Dean Liu added, “Even with the martial art and the divine image, an S-Rank Genius would still need two to three months to succeed.”
“Even S-Rank Geniuses need that long?” Lin Qi asked, startled.
Dean Liu nodded. “For someone like you, it might take over twenty days. But that’s still an immense challenge.”
Lu Wei continued, “To shorten the time, Blue Planet’s martial artists discovered that using Disaster Beast blood and personally observing a Level 9 Disaster Beast’s corpse can aid cultivation.”
Lin Qi’s eyes lit up. “Observing a Level 9 corpse?”
“Exactly,” Lu Wei confirmed. “You’ve visited the Disaster Beast Museum, but there are no Level 9 corpses there. They’re all stored in the Otherworld.”
Lin Qi recalled the museum’s map. Every exhibit housed only Level 8 beasts.
“Level 9 Disaster Beast corpses are too massive,” Lu Wei explained. “Even in death, their genetic instincts absorb ambient Primordial Energy. If we stored them here, they’d drain the entire planet’s energy.”
“So the Otherworld—where Primordial Energy is denser—was chosen instead,” Dean Liu added. “Perhaps once its energy concentration increases, we’ll consider returning them to Blue Planet.”
Dean Liu leaned forward. “In half a month, the second semester’s Disaster Beast Hunting Competition will begin. Afterward, we’ll arrange for you and Ten Institute’s geniuses to enter the Otherworld for firsthand observation of Level 9 corpses. This will aid your cultivation of the Mid-Tier Primordial Energy Martial Art.”
“Think of it as sharpening your axe before chopping wood,” Lu Wei said. “In the meantime, you can use superior resources to boost your training. A Bone Tempering Elixir, for instance, would suit you well.”
Lin Qi nodded. “I understand.”

After Lin Qi left, Lu Wei and Dean Liu remained in the office.
“That kid’s talent is… astonishing,” Lu Wei mused.
“His breakthrough speed is unreal,” Dean Liu chuckled. “If I told Wu Yueze, he’d probably have a fit.”
“Huo Wanyang finally awakened as an SS-Rank Genius, but even he can’t match Lin Qi’s pace,” Lu Wei added. “I’d wager he won’t reach the Fourth Realm until at least half a month from now.”
“Currently, only four students in Ten Institute have broken through to the Fourth Realm,” Dean Liu said. “With Lin Qi, that makes five.”
Dean Liu grinned. “Recruiting Lin Qi was the best decision I’ve ever made.”

Back at his villa, Lin Qi entered his Martial Arts Training Hall and began taking notes.
“I didn’t realize how challenging cultivating a new Primordial Energy Martial Art would be,” he muttered. The need to visit the Otherworld—and the costs involved—meant another hefty expense.
“Xiaochan, open the Crimson Heaven Residence!”
“Yes, Master!”
The petite, doll-like Xiaochan twirled in the air, summoning a glowing green interface. The Crimson Heaven Residence’s marketplace materialized instantly.
Lin Qi searched for [Bone Tempering Elixir]. The results loaded:
Item: Bone Tempering Elixir
Effect: Crafted from rare herbs and Disaster Beast bones. A precious resource for Fourth Realm Bone Tempering martial artists, enhancing and strengthening the user’s skeletal structure. Single-use only.
Price: 2,500,000 Crimson Heaven Points per vial
Lin Qi exhaled sharply. The cost was staggering. A Skin Tempering Balm cost 1,000,000 Xia Kingdom Currency for two uses. This elixir was 2.5 times more expensive—and single-use.
Still, he purchased five vials. He then added five Spirit Nourishing Elixirs (2,000,000 each) to his cart, along with cheaper supplements.
The final bill totaled 25,000,000 Xia Kingdom Currency, reduced to 15,000,000 with his 60% discount.
Payment successful!
Your items will arrive tomorrow. Enjoy your shopping!
Lin Qi slumped back, checking his balance. “Between January and February’s Trial Tower rewards, I’ve earned nearly 20,000,000. But after spending 15,000,000, I’m left with less than 3,000,000…”
He sighed. Saving 50,000,000 felt like a distant dream. Mid-Tier Primordial Energy Martial Art, Disaster Beast blood, Otherworld entry fees… I’m broke.
