Chapter 334: Activating the Special Divine Skill - True Crimson! The Blood Source, Secret Martial Arts Reformists (4K)



"Ji Huaiyu, what's your take on this?" Several examiners turned their gaze to a handsome young man with a cold expression.

"You've also had contact with Sch Jing... Do you have any thoughts?"

Zhou Yinglin also looked at him.

Ji Huaiyu, originally from the outer ring of the Fifth Metropolitan Circle, was a disciple of the Four Elements Monastery.

He was a talented individual and had recently been recruited into the Secret Martial Society.

During the U19 Fengcheng elimination round, he had encountered Sch Jing before her debut, and the higher-ups had sent him here along with Zhou Yinglin to provide insights on dealing with Sch Jing.

Normally, Zhou Yinglin wouldn't even spare a glance at someone of Ji Huaiyu's background from the outer ring, considering it beneath him.

But after being defeated by Sch Jing twice... his stubbornness had diminished considerably.

Although he still didn't believe that Ji Huaiyu could be of much help, listening to his opinion was worth considering.

Ji Huaiyu thought for a moment and spoke in a calm, unperturbed tone, "He's a good person."

The crowd was taken aback.

"He did something I couldn't, and he even provided me with a good solution..."

Ji Huaiyu recalled his encounter with Sch Jing.

Previously, the disciples of the Four Elements Monastery had been bullying others, and under his master's instructions, he couldn't intervene to stop them. It was Sch Jing who helped him in this regard and suggested a method of 'checking for injuries' as a way to discipline his fellow disciples through concern.

Ji Huaiyu had a good impression of him.

"I'm not asking about that."

Someone sighed.

"I'm asking if Sch Jing has any weaknesses or flaws that we can exploit to deal with him."

Ji Huaiyu's expression remained cold, or rather, devoid of any emotion, like an empty shell. He glanced at the speaker and shook his head:

"He's very strong... Stronger than everyone else. There's no way."

Zhou Yinglin said indifferently, "I really don't know why they sent you here. You're of no use at all."

Ji Huaiyu didn't get angry; he just tilted his head in confusion, "I don't understand either... Since Sch Jing defeated you so badly, sending you to deal with her should be pointless."

Zhou Yinglin's eyes sharpened like those of a hawk, "Are you looking for trouble, kid?"

But he quickly retracted his gaze, his cheeks twitching.

Ji Huaiyu's words held no provocation; he was genuinely puzzled.

It felt like getting angry at someone like him was as pointless as getting angry at a rock.

"Alright, since we can't come to a conclusion for now, let's wait for our ace to arrive."

One of the examiners tried to smooth things over.

"Although relying on a kid is a bit unpleasant... With that person's strength, we can almost guarantee success."

Another young examiner spoke up, "It's not certain that it will be foolproof... Don't forget, not only us, but it seems like the Reformists have also come this time."

...

Sch Jing was observing the strange, distorted scenery of the borderland when suddenly, a figure slowly approached and stood beside him.

It was a man with a peculiar appearance, wearing military pants and boots, but only a black suspender on his upper body, almost naked, revealing his beautifully curved muscles.

He was extremely tall, a full head taller than Sch Jing, who was nearly one meter and ninety centimeters tall, appearing to be around two meters and twenty centimeters. His height made his figure seem slender, but he still exuded immense pressure.

But these weren't the main points.

The most striking feature was the faint blood aura emanating from his entire body, diffusing on the surface of his skin.

It was as if every pore of his body was constantly spewing out blood mist, and the visible blood aura made him appear to have activated some sort of explosive secret technique, leaving onlookers in awe.

His dark red hair, dyed in blood, moved on its own without any wind, dancing wildly.

With his arrival, all the students instinctively showed signs of vigilance and tension.

It was as if rabbits on the prairie had spotted a lion... Even if the lion had no intention of hunting them, the overwhelming sense of power and the absolute gap in strength still left them breathless.

"My name is Wei Yuzhao."

The tall man slightly lowered his head, looked at Sch Jing, extended his right hand, and greeted him in a deep voice.

Sch Jing slowly turned to face him.

The blood aura emanating from Wei Yuzhao's body made contact with Sch Jing's, bringing a scorching, burning sensation.

This person was powerful.

Sch Jing sensed a pure gap in strength from him.

In terms of physical strength alone, Wei Yuzhao had a crushing advantage over him.

But there was a subtle sense of strangeness within.

After some thought, Sch Jing reached out and clasped the man's hand.

"I'm Sch Jing," he said softly.

[Detecting divine substance, absorbing divinity...]



Sch Jing's eyes flickered.

This person... is a gifted one? After seeing the prompt, Sch Jing subconsciously opened the panel to take a look, and his heart trembled.

On the panel, at the very bottom of the divine skill column, strands of red light gathered in a new empty slot...

This was a sign of a new divine skill activation!

But why was the light red instead of golden? The phenomenon was different from the activation of previous divine skills, leaving Sch Jing puzzled.

The man named Wei Yuzhao nodded and tried to retract his right hand, but Sch Jing grabbed it firmly, not letting go.

Wei Yuzhao was taken aback.

Sch Jing, his expression unchanged, held Wei Yuzhao's right hand and said with a smile, "Brother Wei, you seem very strong... May I ask where you've achieved such prowess?"

Wei Yuzhao shook his head, "Sch Jing, I'm not your enemy."

Sch Jing still didn't let go, merely saying, "Please elaborate."

Although Wei Yuzhao didn't understand the significance of Sch Jing holding his hand, to show that he had no ill intentions, he didn't resist and continued, "I'm a member of the Secret Martial Society... But unlike those from the Traditionalists who want to cause you trouble, I'm a member of the Reformists."

Sch Jing asked in confusion, "Reformists?"

Wei Yuzhao spoke in a low voice, "We don't agree with the old ideas of the Secret Martial Society. We don't believe that only ancient martial arts are the power humans should use. Instead, we advocate for a reformist thought that embraces all means to enhance martial arts."

"After all, even the founder of the Secret Martial Society... used it, didn't he?"

Sch Jing's eyes lit up with understanding, "So that's the case."

The Secret Martial Society was originally a pure ancient martial arts organization founded by the Extreme Martial King. When he was the leader, there was no room for any other heterodox ideas.

But since he accepted the 'pacification' and joined the official forces, entering the Supreme Court, naturally, the organization that existed solely because of him would change with his thoughts and actions.

The emergence of the Reformists should be a new faction that appeared after the Extreme Martial King left the Secret Martial Society.

"You can probably tell that I'm a gifted one," Wei Yuzhao continued.

"The alien god I received is named 'True Red Master' and 'Blood Source'."

"This is an alien god whose gifted ritual has only been perfected in the past few decades. It is the source of all 'flesh and blood' in the world, symbolizing one of the true gods of the material foundation concept."

"It bestows an extremely wonderful blessing upon martial artists, and all the gifted rituals are in the hands of us Reformists."

Wei Yuzhao surprisingly revealed his entire background.

He looked straight at Sch Jing, "You should be able to sense how powerful I am... Even stronger than you, a rare genius in this world."

"This is all due to the power of the Reformists."

"Sch Jing, you're also a gifted one. You're different from those with rigid minds and can accept our new martial arts philosophy."

"Join us, become a member of the Secret Martial Society's Reformists. You'll receive unimaginable support, rise at a shocking speed, become stronger, and with your talent, in time, you could become the leader of our Reformists, or even a great person who elevates the world's martial arts system."

Wei Yuzhao's gaze swept around, and he said, "As long as you join, I'll help you crush any actions the Traditionalists take against you, ensuring your safety."

Sch Jing held Wei Yuzhao's hand and remained silent for a moment before smiling, "The conditions sound tempting."

[Divinity Absorption Complete]



The prompt appeared, and he opened the panel to check his current divinity.

[Divinity Held: 6620]



Previously, on the Dragon Core plane, he had obtained a large amount of divinity through the divine factor, and then cleared the map of dragon swarms with a single punch, gaining some more. He had around 4,400 divinity in reserve.

Now, he had increased to six thousand six... a total of nearly two thousand two divinity from Wei Yuzhao.

It was a substantial gain, but the acquisition of divinity wasn't the main focus.

His gaze shifted to the divine skill column on the panel.

At the very bottom, a new skill appeared, completely different from the other divine skills.

Its name wasn't shimmering with a faint golden light but with a blood-red glow, as if written in fresh blood.

The True Crimson (Inactive): Special Divinity Skill, requires 6620/5000 Divinity to activate.

A special divinity skill?!

Sch Jing's heart raced slightly as he read the unprecedented description and the terrifying amount of divinity required for activation, silently conveying the extraordinary nature of this new skill.

It required ten times the divinity needed for other divinity skills! He already had quite a few divinity skills, and while their strengths and usefulness varied, they all had the same activation requirement of 500 points.

But now, this skill called 'True Crimson' required a whopping 5000 points... What kind of monstrous skill was this?!

Suppressing the urge to activate it immediately, Sch Jing naturally released Wei Yuzhao's hand and calmly said, "Although the conditions sound good... I refuse."

Wei Yuzhao tilted his head, "Why?"

Sch Jing gave him a strange look, "Do I need a reason to refuse? You should ask for a reason to join."

The path he chose was different from everyone else... The Reformists seemed like a unique system that primarily focused on martial arts with other systems as supplementary, somewhat similar to his own path.

But it was only a superficial similarity; his core remained the same—the interface.

Different paths lead to different destinations... And for some reason, Sch Jing felt a sense of danger from the Reformists.

Wei Yuzhao paused for a moment, "No problem, take your time and think it over. There's no rush."

As he spoke, he turned and left without hesitation.

He thought to himself, when you are on the brink of danger, you will naturally need my help, and then...

Hmm? Why does the mutation rate seem to have suddenly decreased... Is it just an illusion?

"Whoa, Teacher Sch, who was that person just now? He had such a powerful spirit pressure!"

He Han patted his still-beating chest and asked Sch Jing with lingering fear.

As martial artists, they could vaguely sense the absolute suppression at the physical level, like cotton standing before steel. This gap was truly frightening.

"It's like he activated the Boundary King Fist, his whole body was bursting with energy, so exaggerated."

"Are all the examiners monsters?"

Sch Jing ignored the students' chatter and slowly closed his eyes, opening the interface.

【True Crimson (Inactive): Special Divinity Skill, requires 6620/5000 Divinity to activate.】

【Conditions met. Activate?】

【Yes/No】

Without hesitation, he clicked 【Yes】.

【Activation Successful】

【True Crimson LvMax (Special Divinity Skill, cannot be upgraded)】

【Effect: Temporarily sacrifice all special abilities except for blood and flesh to the True Crimson Master, exchanging them for enhanced blood and flesh strength at a certain ratio, entering the 'True Crimson' state.】

Hmm? Sch Jing's eyes narrowed slightly.

This skill... couldn't be upgraded.

No wonder it required 5000 points of divinity to activate... It was a one-time purchase skill, no further 'gold' required.

Thankfully... He had thought that he would have to raise a giant beast baby with an enormous appetite, requiring tens of thousands of divinity points to upgrade.

As for the skill's effect...

Sch Jing had a strange sense of deja vu.

This seemed like... the Forbidden Scroll.

By sealing all his special skills, he could enhance his physical combat power, leaving him with only basic attacks.

He wasn't sure how much his physical strength would increase.

Sch Jing felt an irresistible urge to test it out, but now wasn't the right time...

Just then, students from the surrounding exam halls suddenly started making noises, as if they had seen something.

Sch Jing opened his eyes and followed the sound.

A large flying vehicle was slowly approaching from the horizon, with a big '1' written on its side.

"That's... the Ultimate City No. 1 Exam Hall's flying vehicle," Chen Xingyan said, his eyes filled with gravity.

"All the No. 1 Exam Halls in the Inner Ring Cities are filled with students with extremely high potential evaluations... But that's not the key point."

"The key is, the examiner of the Ultimate City No. 1 Exam Hall this time."

"—The strongest elementary school student on Earth, an unprecedented martial arts genius... Li Sui Sui."

"No, he should be the strongest middle school student now."

The students all looked solemn.

"He's not even thirteen yet... I heard he's about to break the second limit."

"He's a monster; there's no way a human with undeveloped bones could have successfully broken the limit."

Sch Jing's eyes lit up as he watched the slowly descending flying vehicle, attracting everyone's attention.

The strongest elementary school student on Earth... He had heard of him for a long time and was quite curious.
