Chapter 40: Dragon Blood
The crowd chatted a few more sentences, then Yao Lèdān bid farewell to them and approached the newcomers. Seeing Yao Lèdān leave, Jia Dong looked at his back and murmured,
“Is this the Martial Arts Track?”
He shook his head with self-mockery:
“Too social. I thought university was when it would start feeling like society, but the Martial Arts Track began it. I thought she was a good person before, but after getting to know her, it turns out she just wants benefits. We’re just students.”
“I don’t think there’s any problem. Sister Le is pretty good.”
Deng Hao didn’t care. “Kind reminder, responsible explanation, and offering better conditions than school. She just said Brother Ye starts with twenty Ironclad Pigs a day, so we can definitely hunt a few a day too. That’s all money.”
“Do you have something wrong with you?”
Jia Dong said irritably, “A few? Did you forget why we fought Guo Chumíng back then? Old Yan said he came back after hunting one. We’re all One Dragon Gate, and we’re even newer, from Martial Arts Schools. How much better can we be than him?”
Deng Hao shouted, “Then train harder. I don’t want to be like Guo Chumíng. He has no ambition and went to the Preparatory Canteen to show off. Don’t blame others for cursing your mom. We all need to be spirited and not lose face for Martial Arts Students!”
Jia Dong rolled his eyes at him.
Li Ye said with a smile, “Just train Martial Arts well. Don’t cause trouble all day long.”
Deng Hao thought of something and said, “Brother Ye, aren’t the main force players different from us? What kind of treatment do they get?”
Li Ye explained briefly, and Deng Hao said enviously, “Damn, they can learn Martial Arts freely? We ordinary Martial Arts Students don’t have that choice. Old Gu said he would issue Martial Arts to us targetedly for learning, just like the Master Craftsman’s targeted guidance.”
“I think so too. Martial Arts Teachers seem just like Master Craftsmen.”
Jia Dong nodded. “Just free ones.”
Li Ye said, “Cultivation is your own. Everything others do is just auxiliary. Being a Martial Arts Teacher definitely means good experience. Listening more is beneficial.”
After chatting for a while longer, Gu Yang appeared again, this time carrying a large box.
“Line up to get Nutritional Supplements.”
Hearing this, all the Martial Arts Students who were still training stopped. They wanted to go over, but as one stopped, the crowd paused too, just looking at Li Ye, as if waiting for him to go first.
Including the iron tower-like burly man, one of the main force players Yang Jie, who also stopped.
And Fu Yan’s daughter, the great beauty level Fu Chuxue, had long disappeared.
Yao Lèdān walked over helplessly. “Li Ye, they won’t go if you don’t.”
“Am I some ferocious demon?” Li Ye was somewhat speechless.
He just smashed one person. Is it necessary to become like this?
But he didn’t mind, went up first, and received the Nutritional Supplements from Gu Yang, a total of four. The liquid inside was gray but clear, unlike the black muddy liquid he had encountered before.
After distributing the Nutritional Supplements, Gu Yang said directly:
“Drink them right away. After drinking, continue Martial Arts Training. Everyone trains as usual. Including the newcomers, don’t hold back. Let me see what you’re good at.”
Actually, when the Martial Arts Students got the Nutritional Supplements, they had already drunk them and continued cultivating.
Deng Hao and Jia Dong uncapped theirs, poured them into their mouths, and after drinking, exchanged a glance, both showing shock.
“So potent!”
Deng Hao roared, his fists flying like a storm, and began performing Martial Arts.
Li Ye also uncapped one, drank the Nutritional Supplement, and was somewhat stunned.
Qi and Blood rose by 5 points.
The materials inside were a mix of various high-quality herbs, plus extremely faint Demonic Creature blood for neutralization, enhancing the effect.
The key isn’t the herbs.
Since it’s school-issued, exclusively for Martial Arts Students, the Nutritional Supplement must be special compared to market stuff. Li Ye had planned to taste what was in it, but this taste was something else.
Li Ye shook the remaining Nutritional Supplement in his hand and looked at Yao Lèdān. “Do you know the ingredients inside?”
“There are analyses of Nutritional Supplement ingredients on the market, trying to replicate and improve them, but there’s a special component that fuses everything together, which technology can’t analyze.” Yao Lèdān said.
How could they not have thought of replicating? There are training classes on the market claiming High Technology Martial Arts Training. If they could truly replicate the Nutritional Solution supplied nationwide to Martial Arts Students, those capital chasers wouldn’t let it go.
Hearing this, Li Ye looked at the Nutritional Supplement in his hand again and smiled wryly.
Although very faint, once it entered his mouth, there was nothing he couldn’t taste.
The medicinal ingredients were fine, just good quality, but that Demonic Creature blood, no matter how faint, he identified the component.
Dragon!
The Demonic Creature named [Red Blood Dragon] appeared in Li Ye’s mind via Authority, details unknown, but he tasted it was indeed dragon.
Martial Arts Students drink dragon blood!
The dragon blood component was very faint, almost negligible, definitely diluted, but even so diluted, it exerted extremely strong effects, even neutralizing the herbs into pure Qi and Blood boosting utility.
Li Ye smiled, putting away the remaining few.
Shenzhou is generous.
But thinking about it, the Disinfection Bureau supervises all Demonic Creatures in the city, yet outside they rampage. Just that Experience Point shows it.
Shenzhou trains Martial Artists out of strategic need, definitely putting in effort. Otherwise, with so many Martial Arts Competitions and Experience, even if they don’t grow into the talents Shenzhou needs, at least they can achieve self-preservation.
This is also why Li Ye has no resistance to the Disinfection Bureau and Staffing.
Good treatment, sense of responsibility. To individuals, some might resent it, but for real ordinary people, they definitely hope their place is like this.
If they really ignored everything, how would Shenzhou have 2 billion people.
He didn’t plan to drink the remaining Nutritional Supplements now. He didn’t need Martial Arts to convert this Nutritional Supplement into actual Qi and Blood. Better to go home and use Five Flavors Chopsticks to boost it three times for maximum effect.
Normal people can’t achieve such efficient gains, but with his cheat, of course he can.
One gives 5 points, four give 20 points, a month is 80 points. With his Five Flavors Chopsticks, a month can be 240.
If it were normal Qi and Blood boosting, he’d break to Four Dragon Gates in less than three months, but his Martial Arts can’t be calculated that way, since it has a tenfold Conversion Rate.
Li Ye clicked his tongue. These Cultivation Resources are still scarce.
The family debt isn’t urgent. Once he’s strong, he has everything.
But at this pace, he won’t achieve Qi Blood Leap to higher levels even in a year.
The more so, the more he felt he couldn’t repay Director Pan’s great kindness. If he didn’t know the other was an official, he’d think they were raising dead warriors.
He still needed to find ways to make money and get Ingredients.
For next week’s Experience Point, he’d take a good look.
Seeing those around him training, including Yang Jie who found a rotatable Iron Man Stump, striking it to spin and move, the extending Iron Rods also whipping hard on his body, making dull thuds.
Li Ye shook his head, left the gym, and headed to the Library.
He planned to see what Martial Arts were available.
Although he had Top-tier Martial Arts, he wasn’t on the normal path. Essentially as a Dragon Gate Realm Martial Arts Student who broke through recently, he was still interested in Martial Arts.
Like Xiang Feipeng’s Lightness Skill that seemed to control wind, completely different from his, more ethereal.
There are always different Martial Arts, and he needed them to experiment with.
