Chapter 178: Starlight Plan, Gu Tower Village Arena
After handing over the location information of Sky Dragon Lake to Yuan Guofeng, Yuan Guofeng began to make arrangements and sent people to search the area.
The two of them only needed to stay in Gu Tower Village.
Meanwhile, Yuan Guofeng was clearly more anxious than Bai Yu. He didn’t sleep all night and only received news as dawn approached.
The item has been found!
As Bai Yu had said, this Black Jade Pearl was under a large rock at the bottom of the lake, approximately twelve centimeters in diameter.
Yuan Guofeng really wanted to see the item immediately, but he still had people accompany the morning convoy.
Around eight in the morning.
Bai Yu cultivated for a whole night.
As soon as he walked out of the house, he saw Li Zha and two other geniuses.
Li Zha looked at Bai Yu carefully and said in surprise, “I feel your aura has become even more robust.”
“I just opened another Earth Grade Acupoint.”
He had indeed opened a new acupoint according to the cultivation plan obtained from Professor Wang Wen.
More importantly, he drank another bottle of the elixir from the Golden Buddha Acupoint.
Now, only the last Thundercloud Gold Fruit remained.
He had to find a way to get Professor Wang Wen to help him get a few more.
The effect is indeed quite good!
The key point is that he has now opened one Heaven-Rank Acupoint and six Earth-Rank Acupoints, which are the acupoints required for the new Technique on the First Page, the 【Nine Heavens Thunder Technique】 that requires 144 acupoints.
This Technique can borrow the power of the Thunder Department Celestial, its might is astonishing!
And someone with the strength of the Qi Gathering Realm casually claims to have opened Earth-Rank Acupoints.
It feels a bit like Versailles.
Li Zha enjoyed the feeling of those around him rapidly improving their strength and putting pressure on him.
“Haha, then let’s see how much benefit we can gain tonight. Perhaps we can reach a new level! At that time, maybe we can become teammates fighting side-by-side in the Starlight Plan.”
“Starlight Plan?”
“Oh? You don’t know?”
“I’m indeed not clear.”
“Then I’ll explain it in detail. You know about the Martial Arts Class plan, right?”
“Yes, I know about that.”
“Those selected for the Martial Arts Class plan are not really geniuses. They are just people with good potential, one in ten thousand.”
What a boastful statement.
“The Official must select true geniuses from the Martial Arts Class. Concentrate resources and cultivate them with all their might!”
“Just like many strong individuals you see now, their combat power at the same level is terrifying, and that’s because they received focused training! A continuous stream of high-level resources can enhance a person’s foundation.”
“The Starlight Plan should start at the end of the year.”
“At that time, the very top echelon from the Martial Arts Class will be selected to go on trials in various regions.”
“Secret Realms and Ruins will all be involved!”
“They will even go to many dangerous areas abroad for trials.”
Speaking of this, Li Zha patted Bai Yu’s shoulder and said, “Keep up the good work! You’ll most likely be able to participate.”
These words made Bai Yu inexplicably want to laugh.
No, I was just being low-key for a while, do they really think I’m a rookie?
He now understood that with his personality, it was difficult to pretend to be weak.
Pretending to be weak felt truly uncomfortable.
He now couldn’t help but want to boast about how amazing he was.
But thinking about the battle tonight, he just smiled and said, “Haha, I hope I can participate.”
“Let’s go, those two guys want to spar with me. Want to watch?”
“Okay!”
Bai Yu was quite curious about how they would spar.
He hadn’t received formal training and had never sparred with anyone until now.
On the other hand, monsters had become practice targets.
An ancient arena within Gu Tower Village.
This place was originally used by the men of Gu Tower Village for wrestling.
After the Spiritual Qi Awakening, it was naturally used for sparring among extraordinary individuals.
This time, the Official had clearly deliberately borrowed the stage to let the people of Gu Tower Village see the outside world and not become complacent.
Li Zha glanced at the inheritor of Zhao Yun and the inheritor of Zhuge and asked, “Who’s first?”
Yang Fei, the inheritor of Zhao Yun, said, “Me!”
“Alright!”
With that said, golden Buddha’s Light appeared on Li Zha’s body, and twelve Buddhist Rosary Beads materialized around him.
Behind Yang Fei, a white and blue figure appeared, clad in a general’s robe.
Immediately, a bright silver Long Spear appeared in Yang Fei’s hand.
The two floated in the air, their souls manifesting behind them, exuding an extremely powerful aura.
After an exchange of glances, the two energies collided.
Bai Yu glanced at Yuan Guofeng beside him and asked, “Who do you think will win?”
“In a friendly spar, it’s hard to say.”
“Indeed! Unless there’s a significant difference in strength.”
“However, when the Martial Arts Class begins, equipment will be sent down from above. It can simulate combat.”
“Simulated combat? Is it reliable?”
“Don’t underestimate the power of technology! Especially cutting-edge global technology. This technology is said to record all your combat data and generate a model. The only inconvenience is that if your strength increases too quickly, you need to constantly input new data.”
Hearing this, Bai Yu became interested.
This year is indeed an autumn of change!
All sorts of things have emerged.
The battle on the arena clearly shocked the ignorant youths of Gu Tower Village.
“They are so powerful!”
“Can Brother Gu Yu defeat them?”
“Brother Gu Yu received the inheritance from the Village Chief, he can definitely defeat them!”
The children of the village began to argue.
However, Gu Yu, who was watching, had a solemn expression.
After a while, Yuan Guofeng seemed to have received news about the Black Dragon Pearl and secretly gave Bai Yu a look.
The two then quietly left the area.
Inside the small house.
Bai Yu looked at the Black Jade Pearl.
Before he could speak, Bai Ling said somewhat impatiently, “Can Ling’er come out?”
Bai Yu glanced at Yuan Guofeng. Since he was the only one in the room, he said, “The White Dragon related to this matter wants to come out and see.”
“Oh? Could it be that there’s a discovery?”
“I don’t know about that, let’s release it and see.”
With that, Bai Ling couldn’t help but dart out from Bai Yu’s brow.
She circled the Black Jade Pearl a few times and exclaimed excitedly, “Ling’er knows how to deal with that stinky Black Dragon!”
Yuan Guofeng asked excitedly, “How do we deal with it?”
“This bead has a strong connection with that Black Dragon. Ling’er can activate the bead’s properties, absorb a part of that Black Dragon’s soul body into it, and then seal it. However…”
“However, what?”
“However, Ling’er’s current strength is very weak. The energy of the Black Dragon within the Black Tower alone is immense.”
Yuan Guofeng: “It’s alright! We can help you with all our might!”
Bai Ling said happily, “Thank you!”
Yuan Guofeng rarely heard these two words in such a major event.
He was stunned for a moment, then looked at Bai Yu and smiled, “Lend me your White Dragon for a few days.”
“Dream on! The Black Tower incident will be resolved tonight.”
“Alright, then you come with me too. We can go over the arrangements for tonight. I was going to tell you after getting the Black Jade Pearl anyway.”
Thus, Yuan Guofeng, with the help of the Black Jade Pearl and Bai Ling, readjusted the plans.
Seeing the Official’s arrangements, Bai Yu felt much more at ease.
This was clearly an effort to nip the Black Demon threat in the bud! Unless the Sea Monsters sent a large army, there was not a high chance of failure.
Thus, time ticked by, and night gradually descended.
Li Zha and the others looked proud, but as the major operation approached, they were more nervous than Bai Yu.
Bai Yu: Haha, I haven’t seen much of a big scene. For me, it’s just business as usual.
And under this night, undercurrents surged.
