Chapter 132: Chapter 116: Kill One in Ten Steps (Vote for Monthly Tickets)
“It's true!”
“The senior brother's personal score has reached 242 points.”
“I told you, the senior brother will never let us down, he is the strongest freshman of our batch,” a classmate couldn't help but say excitedly, pumping his fist.
“257 points now.”
“In just these few seconds, it rose by so much?” Gu Qianghan and An Nong exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.
It wasn't just the freshmen from the Sixth Institute.
At this moment, in a row of train compartments, freshmen from all eight institutes, and even some older students from Kunlun Martial University, had noticed Li Yuan's rapidly increasing score and ranking.
The change in score was almost calculated by the 'second', enough to stun anyone.
What did it represent?
It represented that Li Yuan was encountering a large number of Star Realm creatures and was engaging in a frenzied slaughter!
Too insane.
The fourth combat assessment base.
A small basin surrounded by hills, with wooden huts built into the jungle on a hillside.
A Rock Desert Tribe village that once teemed with vitality.
At this moment, it was already a chaotic river of blood.
“Roar~”
“Whoo!” “Whoo!” The densely packed Rock Desert Tribe warriors, with skin like rock, were howling as they frantically waved their primitive wooden and stone weapons in hand.
Due to their racial traits, they were all incredibly tall.
The slimmest among them stood over two and a half meters tall,
Dozens of warriors surged like a tide towards a 'slender and short' figure clad in black armor.
He wielded a long spear, behind him more than ten bodies lay, blood splattering and staining the crimson tassel of the long spear, as if he had stepped out of hell.
Due to the obstacles of trees, houses, and boulders, at most a dozen of the Rock Desert Tribe warriors could attack Li Yuan at any time.
“Boom~” “Peng~” “Peng~”
Standing at a farther distance, some of the Rock Desert Tribe warriors were swinging their arms, hurling huge stones fiercely towards Li Yuan.
Hundreds of pounds of boulders whistled down.
Even with a transformed physique, Li Yuan dared not take them head-on.
But, relying on his greatly enhanced physical quality after the transformation, combined with his movement technique, Li Yuan's figure flickered and easily avoided the barrage of boulder attacks.
“Peng~” The boulders struck the trees, gouging out large chunks, even causing the trees to topple and fall, while the ones hitting stones caused numerous fragments to scatter.
“Clang! Clang! Clang!”
Li Yuan, advancing steadily, had a cold look in his eyes. His long spear danced in his hand like a dragon, instantly and easily parrying the attack of one warrior after another.
Following the vibration of the spear's shaft, he counter-thrusted with the momentum, the spear tracing a half-circle, its tip swift as lightning.
“Stab! Stab! Stab!” Two of the Rock Desert Tribe warriors' necks were slit in an instant, blood spraying out as they collapsed with a thud.
“[You have killed… with a Spiritual Awakening Level of 21.8%]”
“[You… with a level of 21.9%]” Two notifications from the Divine Palace panel flashed consecutively.
“Killing one only raises it by 0.1%, and I've killed less than twenty,” Li Yuan murmured to himself.
Through combat and Divine Palace inquiry, Li Yuan quickly deduced that most of these Rock Desert Tribe warriors were actually only around levels 12-13; those exceeding level 13 were in the minority.
Just now, sneaking over from the depths of the forest, Li Yuan had intended to launch a surprise attack.
Alas, it was broad daylight, and the vigilance of the Rock Desert Tribe was extremely high, with not only visible sentinels but also hidden scouts.
Li Yuan had only killed two before the entire tribe was alerted.
Since the surprise attack failed, Li Yuan simply stopped pretending and launched a direct frontal assault.
It quickly drew a large number of Rock Desert warriors rushing out from houses, caves, and wooden huts.
At this moment, in close combat,
warriors of the Rock Desert Tribe who had been throwing huge rocks from afar finally had to stop, fearing they would injure their own people.
“Pfft!” “Pfft!” One warrior after another fell to the ground, most shot in the throat.
Their skin was tough; if Li Yuan stabbed anywhere else, he wasn't confident of a kill with one strike.
Only the throat was very vulnerable.
In terms of strength, Li Yuan was actually weaker than many Rock Desert warriors.
But his skill was much too superior, completely overpowering the majority of Rock Desert warriors who had not even reached the Second Stage.
“Die! Die!” Li Yuan's eyes were icy cold, without the slightest bit of mercy.
First, the ones coming out of the Rock Desert Tribe were all warriors, hardly any old folks, women, or children could be seen.
Second, in a race war where life and death were at stake,
there was no room for Li Yuan to show mercy.
“Whoosh!” “Pffft!” Li Yuan displayed his spear technique to its fullest, as one warrior after another fell.
Previously, when facing creatures of the Star Realm above level 12.5, the gap in strength was too big, and Li Yuan did not dare to meet them head-on, relying only on his movement technique to fight.
As a result, he often fought for a long time, inflicting minor wounds on the opponent before he could seize the opportunity to kill one.
Now? His Life Level had reached 12.7.
With Li Yuan being able to tap into even deeper layers of his body's strength, the power he could unleash was strong enough to rival a level 13 Rock Desert warrior.
He dared to confront these Rock Desert warriors head-on!
“Woof!”
“Roar~” “Roar~” As one warrior after another fell, the remaining numerous Rock Desert warriors howled at each other, communicating in their own simple language, their steps slowing down.
The Rock Desert Tribe was indeed bloodthirsty and frenzied, but when faced with a battle with no hope of victory, they, too, began to fear.
All living beings fear death, and fear is contagious.
Over the past two days, there had been numerous 'alien race' attacks on their tribe, with nearly a hundred tribal warriors lost.
Now came an even more terrifying 'alien race.'
At this time.
“Roar~” From the central and largest stone house of the tribe, finally, three figures emerged, each more burly than the last.
The tallest one was probably nearly three and a half meters tall, truly deserving of the name 'rock giant.'
Clearly, these three were the chieftains of the Rock Desert Tribe.
“13.8 level, 13.7 level, 14.1 level.” Li Yuan remotely conducted a Divine Palace inquiry, and immediately knew the strength of the three tribal chieftains.
Two were close to level 14.
The strongest had surpassed level 14, and given their intelligent-looking eyes, they were very formidable.
“Spiritual Awakening Level 23.2%.” Li Yuan glanced at the Divine Palace's panel: “Keep killing.”
The continuous slaughter also ignited the fervor in Li Yuan's heart.
This kind of thrill, skirting the edge of life and death, where one mistake could mean severe injury or even death, was something that countless virtual duels and combat trainings could never replace.
“Roar~”
The 14.1 level Rock Desert Tribe's great chieftain, seeing the constant injury and death among the tribal warriors, could no longer hold back and erupted with an angry roar.
“Die!!” The slightly stiff roar still made Li Yuan instantly understand the other party's intent.
It understood a bit of human civilization's language.
This roar echoed throughout the entire tribe, immediately heard by all warriors, invigorating their spirits without exception.
Boom!
The Rock Desert Tribe's chieftain, like a rolling boulder, had his speed soar to the extreme, bringing up a whirlwind as he charged at Li Yuan like lightning.
“Roar~”
“Hmm!” The many Rock Desert Tribe warriors hastily retreated to the sides, clearing a path.
Li Yuan's eyes slightly narrowed, keeping watch on the opponent from the corner of his eye, his hand gripping the long spear as it swept out with terrifying power in a burst, the speed increasing by a great margin.
Spear's point attack!
“Puchi~” “Puchi~” In an instant, another three Rock Desert Tribe warriors fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the originally spectating second and third chieftains of the Rock Desert Tribe could no longer hold back and, with roars, joined the fray.
In the fourth base, within the third-floor conference room of the War Fortress, dozens of teachers were staring in shock at the immense screen before them.
It was showing Li Yuan's battle in the heart of the Rock Desert Tribe.
“Li Yuan, he?”
“President Li, is Li Yuan really a freshman? His physical quality has definitely surpassed level 12.5!”
“How did he train?”
“Alone, he dared to charge into the Rock Desert Tribe's territory? Qiu Jing tried before and managed to kill a dozen or so before he was chased off in a disarrayed flight.”
“Did he hide so much strength before?”
“His points have now exceeded 500, shooting up to 16th rank in the fourth base.” The teachers were discussing fervently, all quite astonished.
“Old Li, is Li Yuan's physical quality really that strong?” Dean Xu was equally surprised.
It was one thing for other teachers not to monitor Li Yuan constantly, but she had been attentive throughout.
Previously, Li Yuan had shown to possess roughly level 11.5 in terms of physical quality.
After one night's sleep, it had nearly matched up to level 13.
“Haha, I've said before that he has exceptional talent, just watch.” President Li chuckled, “Otherwise, why would I have arranged for him to be at the fourth base? I certainly had my reasons.”
“Really?” Dean Xu expressed skepticism; Li Yang's explanations seemed inconsistent.
“Really.” Li Yang nodded, appearing very composed.
In reality, Li Yang was more shocked than any teacher present; he was all too aware of Li Yuan's strength.
“One night.”
“A rise of about 1.5 levels in physical quality? How did Li Yuan do it?” Numerous thoughts flickered through Li Yang's mind: “Heavenly Materials Treasures? Or perhaps some Forbidden Medicine?”
He contemplated many possibilities.
But chose not to reveal them.
“I'll ask him slowly when we get back to school,” Li Yang thought to himself, leaning towards the possibility that Li Yuan possessed some Heavenly Materials Treasures.
The battle commenced.
“The three great chieftains of the Rock Desert Tribe have attacked simultaneously.” Li Yang focused on the screen that had been enlarged.
All the teachers watched intently.
This battle was definitely the most pinnacle battle of the combat assessment at the fourth base to date.
It's worth noting.
At this moment, above the Rock Desert Tribe's territory, more than 20 silent combat drones hovered, ready to swoop down at any moment to slice through the Rock Desert Tribe's warriors and rescue Li Yuan.
…In the Rock Desert Tribe.
“Die!” bellowed the great chieftain, resembling a rock giant, as he swung a metal combat saber, his body clad in tattered metal armor.
Metal weapons and armor could tremendously increase the combat power of a Rock Desert Tribe warrior.
Most importantly, the chieftain's wisdom was extraordinarily high, almost human-like. Prolonged battles had honed his formidable and impressive combat skills.
“Whoosh!” The chieftain's figure darted forward, attempting to close in on Li Yuan with a faster burst speed.
“Whoosh!”
A terrifying slash of the saber whizzed by.
“Kill!”
Li Yuan, too, erupted in an instant, sidestepping the light of the saber. His long spear, like a starburst, streaked across the daylight, instantly producing a trail of spear-tip afterimages.
“Clang!” “Clang!”
“Clang!” The long spear danced, like the Milky Way falling from the heavens, tumultuous and overwhelming, each blow stronger than the last, each wave higher than the one before.
It was the 'Galaxy Waterfall', the second technique of the Stellar Spear Technique, best known for group battles and consecutive strikes.
Spear shadows burst forth, layer upon layer; droplets of fresh blood sprayed as the Rock Desert Tribe warriors, who tried to restrain Li Yuan, fell one after another.
“Clang!” Even the Rock Desert Tribe chieftain widened his eyes, desperately swinging his combat saber to block the assaults.
Too fast.
Li Yuan's physical strength was far inferior to his.
However, with the Second Rank Secret Manual's killing move, the long spear's burst speed far exceeded his combat saber's. The spear, like lightning, nimble as waves, surging like a mighty river, was terrifying to the extreme, forcing the Rock Desert Tribe chieftain to block purely on instinct.
In almost the blink of an eye.
The Rock Desert Tribe chieftain had blocked nine of Li Yuan's thrusts and had been pushed back nine steps. His combat saber had become pockmarked under the relentless stabs of the long spear… The gap in the quality of their weapons was enormous.
“Twelve Continuous Strikes!”
After harnessing energy for twelve strikes, Li Yuan's spirit, energy, and mind all reached an unprecedented peak, his fighting spirit soaring to the skies.
“Whoosh!”
The long spear flashed, unleashing a spear thrust with all of Li Yuan's vigor, erupting thunderously. There was no flashy technique, no variation, just a burst of speed pushed to the utmost extreme.
The Stellar Spear Technique's third form–Dawn Piercing the Clouds!
This was the combination of two devastating techniques, and also Li Yuan's strongest attack!
“Ooooh!!” The Rock Desert Tribe chieftain screamed in horror in his native tongue, instinctively trying to raise his combat saber to block.
But after continuously blocking the long spear, his arms were already awash with soreness, precisely when he was at his weakest.
“Pfft~”
A flash of silver, and the spear tip had already pierced through skin, deep into the Rock Desert Tribe chieftain's throat, and then it was violently withdrawn, blood spraying copiously.
“Clang~” The huge combat saber fell to the ground.
“Ah~~” The Rock Desert Tribe chieftain, nearly three and a half meters tall, instinctively covered his throat with his palm, helplessly opened his mouth, but not a sound came out as blood gushed from his mouth.
After staggering backward a few steps.
“Boom~” the Rock Desert Tribe chieftain finally collapsed to the ground behind him, heavily crashing down, his massive body trembling and convulsing.
Until his eyes dulled completely.
The Rock Desert Tribe chieftain, surpassing level 14, dead!!
“You have killed a Star Realm creature over level 14, Points +200.”
“[You have slain an Entry Rank creature, obtaining Spiritual Nature nourishment, Spiritual Awakening Level reaching 25%]”
Li Yuan retracted his long spear, coldly fixing his gaze on the second and third chieftains of the Rock Desert Tribe, who had just arrived nearby, their faces filled with terror.
