Martial Research Master

Chapter 39



Their aura had a huge difference to that of what was before in a month. It was obvious how much they have improved in the last month. The ancient aura was something that was beneficial for the training of even Qi general realm practitioners. .......................

All three of them bowed to Jiao Sheng and the elders.

“Stand up proud. You three are the pride of the Jiao Country and I have huge expectations from you. I hope all of you have huge improvements in the last month.”

Long Mengchen raised her hand “Your majesty, I have a request.”

“Do state your desire.”

“Would it be possible for me to have a training arena in the royal manor for use.”

.....

“You surely can.”

” Are you ready for the fight big brother. I hope you haven’t forgotten the stakes?”.

Long Tao, with a look of disgust “As I said before, you are not capable enough to have a talk with me.”

“We would never know before we have a try at it.”

” Fine”, Long Tao complied with a deep breath.

.......................

If he backed out now, all his act until now will crumble to nothing. He already knew that Long Mengchen had Awakened her bloodline which also enabled her to break through the Qi master realms.

Long Tao would have been nervous with his previous power to take her on but now the conditions were different. Not only did he advance to the 9th stage of the Qi realm, but additionally, he has opened 8 primary meridians, 10 secondary meridians, and 8 acupoints.

His body has gone a qualitative morphosis at least three times. He had also mastered 2 arts which he got from the royal library. Long Tao couldn’t even start to estimate the improvement he has achieved in the last month.

The group proceeded according to the direction of an elder and soon reached an arena that was built within the manor. The elder requested both of them to proceed towards the arena and asked about the rules of the match.

” No barriers to use of any technique, power or weapon. The last man standing will be the winner.” Long Mengchen complied with a nod. Both of them stood opposite each other and took the battle stance.

...............................................................................

“Who according to you is going to win?”. An elder asked Jiao Sheng.

” As per the last match between the two, Long Mengchen was at the peak of the Qi child realm but was still defeated by Long Tao who was at the 7th stage of Qi child. ”

“I couldn’t predict the future this time as we know that Long Mengchen has already awakened her bloodline and probably already had a breakthrough to the Qi master realm.”

The two of the elders nodded. The third elder didn’t say anything for some time and just looked at the two participants:

” The boy will win the match.” Jiao Sheng and the two others were surprised

“Although he is going to be one of your group, you don’t need to be so supportive of this brat.” one of the elders said with a laugh. But the facial expression of the elder didn’t change. He didn’t bother to reply to the comment.

Even Jiao Sheng was surprised at the declaration. He knew the character of the elder. He was not someone who would proclaim something without absolute certainty. Has this brat gone through some insane improvement too or was he hiding his power?

............................................................

The Crimson Lord world-

“We need to get more data on the art practiced by her. It would be vital in the development of my understanding of the sword and the creation of a technique.”

“I have already recorded your previous fights. You can review those to get more ideas on the arts.”

LonG tao thanked the Keeper. He needed to come up with a solid hypothesis to build his technique on. This art could be the base.

................................................................

The arena-

Long Mengchen had absolute confidence that she could defeat Long Tao now that her bloodline is active and her break-through into the Qi master realm. She barged towards Long Tao raising her fist to bash him, and the same scene as in the previous match appeared again.

Long Tao simply dodged the attack and started observing the rhythm. The tackle continued until Long Tao came in between the steps and broke her rhythm, hence breaking the attack pattern.

Long Mengchen didn’t stop and unsheathed her sword and started attacking. Too. After a period of time, Long Tao was actually having multiple bruises on his body, while he was unsuccessful to break the rhythm.

Long Mengchen’s talent was really scary. She managed to comprehend another pathway while in training. Long Tao calmed himself down and was starting to get him. After gaining multiple injuries, he was finally able to force her back and break it.

............................................

“Even if you managed to learn a new pathway, it’s still insufficient.”After exactly 3 strikes, Long Tao was hurt once more.

” This lass is really talented. She not only learned a new growth path but now is able to simultaneously use multiple growth paths. She is switching gears.”

The next scene astonished the audience even more. Long Tao was being grievously wounded. He was not able to put any defense. Long Mengchen stopped after a series of attacks:

“Are you knowingly showing sympathy to me and not putting a fight. Show me your battle strength. I don’t require your pity to win a fight against you. I have not even utilized any real amount of power yet.”

Long Mengchen released a furious offensive aura, and as predicted by the elders, she was already at the Qi master realm.

“Are you sure that the boy is going to win even now?”

” You want to make a bet.”

“Why not, do you think I am scared of you?”

“Fine then, let’s bet on a weapon of Qi general grade.”. An awkward silence permeated the whole viewer’s stand.

A Qi general realm weapon was no joke. It was something very precious. Even Jiao Sheng only had a single set poof those. But the guy insisted on betting a Qi general weapon on this fight whose results were this obvious.

“Are you scared?”

The elder clenched his teeth, ” Fine “, he took out a staff.”

“This is my tempo staff. What are you going to bet”.

The guy waved his hand and a sword came out” It is called the Black demon sword. ”

Even looking at them from far, the quality of the black demon was greater than the staff but, both were ultimately Qi general level weapons.

..........................................................

Long Tao looked at the offensive aura spewed out of Long Mengchen’s body.

” So, I was found out. I was just giving you some satisfaction of hitting me because otherwise, you will never have the chance.”. Long Mengchen’s face was red with anger.

” Fine since you don’t want my pity, I shall go on the offensive. Let’s see. What should I use? You are not powerful enough yet for me to use weapons to fight. Fine, my fist will do.”

Long Took a step back, used the flash step, and dashed towards Long Mengchen. This technique still mesmerized the audience and shocked Long Mengchen as to how fast it was, but it was a unidirectional speed art, and hence Long Mengchen decided to dodge.

Long Tao, changed his footwork, instantly to use the movement of flowing water and rammed Long Mengchen’s body with a punch. The audience was shocked. How could Long Tao be so powerful and skilled? Just one attack sent Long Mengchen flying and her body was actually caved in.

........................................................

“I used too much power”, Long Tao was concerned internally. He didn’t want to inflict any grievous damage to Long Mengchen. Long Mengchen managed to stand up.

Her clothes were torn, and the spot where the punch hit was caved in. But she didn’t give up on the brawl. She didn’t dare to hold anything back. She utilized the full limits of her power, but Long Tao was now on the offensive and his aura was already at Qi child peak.

He kept barging at her with attack and wasn’t even inflicted by any damage from her. After they separated, Long Mengchen was spewing blood from her mouth. She was glancing at Long Tao with huge trepidation. Even now she was not his opponent in a frontal confrontation.

“Didn’t I tell you. You are not worthy of talking to me.” Long Tao said with a mocking tone and was beginning to leave. But suddenly the atmosphere changed. A weird aura started spewing out of Long Mengchen’s body.

” I want you to be a careful boy. She is starting to activate her bloodline power now. Its time you get serious.”.

“I will say this once. She is still not worthy enough to talk to me.” He was so confident in his strength. But Then he analyzed the power and laughed. What Long Tao had shown until now was just the tip.

His Qi reservoir was immense due to the Origin avatar art, which allowed him to draw Qi from all the 9 avatars. He had his own bloodline power. He had his immense soul power and the attack method that he trained in (The one he got when he stepped into the Qi child realm from the omnipotent soul art).

He hadn’t utilized his weapons yet. And was still not utilizing the power of acupoints. He began to understand what gave Long Tao such confidence. After all his power was easily able to rival the mid-Qi master realm and even a high-grade Qi master in a death fight.

............................................................

“Bloodline activation is it. Let’s see how powerful you become.” Long Mengchen opened her eyes. They were now shinning with golden and blue light. Her aura was now releasing a frosty and a dominant feeling.

“Dual bloodlines. The mystery around her grows stranger as time passes. ”

She approached Long Tao and attacked with a simple fist. Long Tao, for the first time in a fight, was sent rolling to the edge. His skin was ruptured and some bones displaced.

He was shocked. His earlier thoughts were now gone. If it was before with his earlier cultivation, he might have died due to the attack. Long Mengchen looked like a war goddess.
