Boom!
Lin Qi unleashed a colossal strike with his Black Long Spear, a golden spear-light surging forward to smash into the Ironspine Warbear’s skull.
A shockwave erupted from the impact, rippling outward in all directions.
The spear-light swept like a collapsing heaven and earth.
“Roar!”
Crack!
The Ironspine Warbear roared, its skull shattering instantly. Blood spewed from its nose, mouth, and ears as its massive body crashed to the ground.
Boom!
The concrete pavement cratered, the shockwave kicking up a dust storm that toppled two nearby Clawrend Apes.
Boom!
Lin Qi landed heavily, his feet carving a web-like fissure into the ground. He thrust his spear again, golden Vital Force condensing into a piercing spear-light infused with Grand Scenic Aesthetic—
“Roar!”
The Clawrend Ape’s roar was drowned out as the spear-light pierced its maw, drilling through its skull in an explosion of gore.
Lin Qi pivoted, charging the second Ape. His Black Long Spear shot forward like a straight line, its Mountain-River Collapse technique surging with intent.
The spear-point tore through the air, plunging into the Ape’s throat. Scalding blood sprayed across Lin Qi as the beast’s roar choked into silence.
“Roar—!”
The battlefield fell still.
He exhaled, exhaustion crashing over him.
Suddenly, the world froze. A notification appeared:
[Congratulations, Lin Qi. You have passed the 16th Trial.]
[Congratulations. You have cleared the Disaster Beast Trial Tower. You may now set foot on the battlefield against Disaster Beasts.]
[Ranking: 1st]
[Overall Ranking: 5→1]
Lin Qi blinked at the messages.
Two years had passed. He’d finally conquered the Trial Tower.
And he’d overtaken four geniuses—Lei Shuang, Meng Yuxuan, Zhang Tianyang, and Shen Heng—to claim the top spot.
His breakthrough in the 16th Trial came from his Spear Techniques advancing.
His Status Panel updated:
[After battling 1,000 Disaster Beasts in the Trial Tower, your Spear Techniques have reached a new peak. River and Mountain Spear Techniques advanced. Spear Techniques +1%]
[After battling 1,000 Disaster Beasts, you’ve mastered the second Kill Move of River and Mountain Spear Techniques: Heaven and Earth Annihilation. Spear Techniques +3%]
[After battling 1,000 Disaster Beasts, your Body Techniques advanced. Body Techniques +3%]
[Spear Techniques: 59%→63% of Fourth-Circle]
[Body Techniques: 53%→56% of Fourth-Circle]
A grin spread across his face.
His Spear Techniques had broken into the late Fourth-Circle, and he’d unlocked the second Kill Move: Heaven and Earth Annihilation.
Few could achieve this—even Seventh Realm martial artists would struggle.
Most geniuses advanced their martial realm first, then their techniques. A Seventh Realm warrior would typically reach the late Fourth-Circle in techniques only after breaking through their realm.
But Lin Qi had done it at Sixth Realm Late Stage.
“With my current strength, I can take on a Seventh Realm opponent.”
He tightened his grip on the spear. His Adamantine Body Fist was perfected, his physical constitution far surpassing peers. Combined with late Fourth-Circle Spear Techniques, confidence surged.
“Not enough. I need to Awaken soon.”
Shaking his head, he chose to exit the Trial Tower.
Seconds later, outside the tower, no one waited.
All were competing in the Global Martial Arts Championship. None noticed he’d conquered the Trial Tower.

By 8:00 PM, the fourth round of the championship concluded.
The top 250 warriors emerged.
As competitors logged out to eat and rest, Shen Heng sat in his private Xingxiu Residence—a luxury villa for Sss-rank geniuses.
Dressed in black martial robes, his body radiated heat.
Cross-legged, he assumed the Five Hearts to Sky posture.
Earlier, he’d consumed 50 kilograms of Eight-grade Disaster Beast flesh and premium resources like Washing Marrow Elixirs.
“No holding back,” he muttered. “I must push myself to the Seventh Realm.”
He channeled the Marrow Training method, beginning the final phase.
Zzzzt!
Silver patterns rippled under his skin, twisting across his body. Pain lanced from his bones, but he clenched his jaw.
The Disaster Beast flesh and Elixirs surged through him. Impurities flushed from his marrow, inching him closer to the immaculate, frost-like “Marrow Like Frost” state.
Four hours later, at midnight, Shen Heng’s eyes snapped open, crackling with lightning.
His aura erupted—a thunderous, vital energy surging, his body undergoing metamorphosis.
“This is Seventh Realm Blood Replacement?”
“My physical constitution has skyrocketed!”
He clenched his fist, grinning. After months stalled at Sixth Realm Peak, he’d broken through.
Now a Seventh Realm martial artist, he felt ready to vie for the championship.

Elsewhere, at Star Cultivation Mansion No. 36, a sleek black electric car parked outside.
Lin Qi stepped out, spear and bag in hand.
Inside, the dining table overflowed with sizzling Disaster Beast steaks—aromatic and glistening.
After five hours in the Gravity Chamber, he devoured 200 kilograms—50 kilograms of it Eight-grade—before ordering Xiaochan to prep 200 more kilograms via smart robots.
Dressed in black martial robes, he sat cross-legged, assuming the Five Hearts to Sky posture.
“Five hours in the Gravity Chamber drained me. My cells are starved of energy.”
“But consuming so much Disaster Beast flesh… my Vital Energy stat should break through.”
Warmth coursed through him, a nascent force stirring. The Awakened state loomed.
He inhaled deeply, channeling the Platinum Demon Tiger Evolution Method’s Marrow Training.
