After a slight hesitation, Tang Tian didn't hesitate to head towards the gate. He had spent five whole years cultivating basic martial arts in order to find the secret of the bronze medal, wasn't it just for this day?
Upon stepping through the cross gate, the scene in front of him changed.
The first thing that came into his vision was the black ground under his feet, the ground was made of some unknown material, smooth as a mirror, reflecting Tang Tian's figure. After stepping on it, the ground was as hard as iron. Tang Tian curiously looked around, the size of the ground was about three zhang square circle, empty, and the outside was shrouded in a blanket of dense fog. He tried to walk to the edge of the gray fog, but the gray fog seemed to have a strange repulsive force, no matter how hard he tried, he could not get out of the empty space into the gray fog.
Suddenly, a line of red characters surfaced on the black and smooth mirror-like ground under his feet.
Red letters on a black background, deep and demonic.
“Whether you are powerful or small, yourself will be your enemy for the rest of your life, this is the battle of a lifetime. You have nowhere to run, you can't get away with it, victory will make you unrivaled, defeat will leave you bumbling.”
“Victory over self. Rating: good. Rewarded cultivation time: ten days.”
Defeat of the ego?
Good?
Rewarding cultivation time?
Tang Tian disdainfully bristled, “Bullshit!”
Thinking about the fact that the gray man and himself had the exact same moves just now, what bullshit ego, that is, what he knows, the gray man knows all of it, however, wasn't it still defeated by me? Tang Tian thought of this and became a little smug again.
This realistic guy immediately focused on his loot. What was more exciting than loot?
Ten days of cultivation time? What kind of thing was this?
Tang Tian scratched his head and tossed it around for a while, but he still managed to figure something out. The bronze medal was supposed to be an object used to aid in cultivation, and a million basic martial arts skills to cultivate was the condition to open it.
Tang Tian was a little puzzled, when mom was alive, she never urged him to cultivate. Could it be that mom didn't know the usefulness of this thing either? Then where did mom get the bronze medal from?
Could it be that ......
Tang Tian's face clouded over, could it be that the bronze medal was given to mom by that asshole man?
As soon as this idea popped up, the more Tang Tian thought it was possible, every time mom changed the red rope for him, she would look at the bronze medal out of her mind, revealing a look of reminiscence.
Tang Tian's fists clenched at once!
Damn it!
After being angry for half a day, Tang Tian stopped being angry, he figured it out. If the bronze medal was really given to mom by that bastard man, that was even better!
He would make good use of the bronze medal, use it to make himself stronger, and then defeat that bastard man!
Haha, that bastard will regret giving the bronze medal to his mom!
Yes, that's it!
The thought of that asshole man's regretful expression, haha, that would be awesome!
Tang Tian was refreshed, and he felt that his decision was really a genius idea.
The number “0” lit up on the light door was dazzlingly clear. Has it been reset to zero? Will it still be a basic martial art? Tang Tian shook his head, he guessed that it should be a second rank martial skill.
He could finally cultivate second-order martial arts, he finally touched the real secrets of the bronze medal, but he still knew very little.
And ...... there are no traces left by mom in here ......
Tang Tian looked at the cross light door and was a bit out of his mind, had mom been here before?
The young man's face floated full of longing.
He stood dumbfounded for a while before coming back to his senses. He clenched his fists and muttered, “Mom, I will decipher the true secret of the bronze medallion! I will find the bastard and drag him to your grave to repent!”
The teenager's face was resolute, and without any further hesitation, he turned around and walked towards the cross gate.
The moment Tang Tian stepped out of the cross gate, it was as if he was passing through countless shadows of light, but this illusion was extremely short-lived, and in the next moment, the tactile sensation coming from his feet made Tang Tian immediately realize that it was the floor of his own home.
Sure enough, the next moment, Tang Tian appeared in his own bedroom.
Everything around him was so familiar, as if the scene that had just happened was all nothing more than an illusion.
He subconsciously touched the bronze medal on his neck, but his hand, all of a sudden, felt empty.
Tang Tian was startled!
On his neck, it was empty, only five entangled red ropes remained.
Copper medallion!
Where did the bronze medal go?
Just then, suddenly his palm was hot.
Tang Tian looked down, and a cross identical to the one on the light gate appeared in his palm.
The cross slowly faded until it disappeared.
Could it be ......
Tang Tian's eyes widened, his face full of astonishment, and suddenly his heart moved, the scene in front of him changed again, and he returned to the cross light door.
The bronze plaque had unexpectedly merged into his own body!
Surprised for a moment, the nervous Tang Tian felt that this was better.
Finally, he didn't have to worry about losing the bronze medal.
After going in and out many times, Tang Tian roughly figured out the function of the light gate.
What made him feel most surprised and magical was the one that rewarded cultivation time. After he stepped into the light door, the outside world's time seemed to stop flowing, and after he stayed inside for a whole quite long time, the outside time didn't move at all.
This made Tang Tian feel incredible to the extreme, he stayed for a long time before he came back to his senses, a smile had like ripples spreading across his face, turning into a laugh up to the sky.
Time ah!
In the past five years, he had spent an unfathomable amount of time on basic martial arts, and his time, compared to others, was four whole years less! But now, he finally had the possibility of catching up with others!
Finally able to get his time back!
Tang Tian's mood at this moment didn't know how to describe it. In five years, he had gone from twelve to seventeen, and before that, he had become the oldest cadet in the entire Ander Academy.
Although he gave people full attention on the outside, in his heart, he was always under immense pressure. What was able to inspire him every day were those cold numbers, beating over and over again, and the longing that was buried deep within his heart. Tang Tian longed to find the bastard who abandoned his wife and son, beat that bastard like a dog, and drag him to his mother's grave to repent. Longing to be able to fulfill his promise, he had promised Chie that he would definitely visit her in the constellation of Yingxian, and they had made a date to go to the Sky Road together.
So, he'd been gritting his teeth.
Until today, five years of seemingly foolish persistence had paid off.
“Haha, make sure to defeat Little Ash a few more times! Then that will give us more time!” Tang Tian was inexplicably excited, his right hand clenched his fist, his face full of light, brushing, his left hand crossed his waist, his right hand pointing straight at the gray shadow on the light door, “Aha! Little gray ash, in front of a god-like powerful man, obediently bow down! Be obediently defeated by me! The next time I see Chie, I'll make sure to scare her! Wahahahahaha!”
“I'm going to Heaven's Path! I'm going to find Chie! Whoa oh oh oh oh!”
“I really am a god-like man! Ahahahaha!”
Cheers came out from the houses.
Suddenly, the cheering came to a crashing halt, and Tang Tian's smile froze on his face. He suddenly realized a realistic and incomparable problem. Where was he going to learn second rank martial arts?
Second rank martial arts were different from basic martial arts, second rank martial arts required a Soul General Card, and without a Soul General Card, it was simply impossible to learn. A card made by a martial artist with his or her own soul imprint was a Soul General Card. The Soul General Card had two most important functions, one of which was learning martial arts.
“Soul General Card! Soul General Card! Soul General Card ......” Tang Tian's eyes were glazed over and his mouth was broken.
Even a bronze grade second rank soul general card wasn't cheap, the soul general card needed to be self-provided, but rather, when one was admitted to the academy and just enrolled, the school would distribute a soul general card based on the student's strength.
Tang Tian's gaze became straighter and straighter.
Bang Bang Bang!
The earth-shattering knock on the door startled Tang Tian, the door of the room trembled violently and looked about to fall apart.
Tang Tian straightened his gaze back to God at once, suddenly remembered that if the door is broken, he has no money to repair ah! Tang Tian was so anxious that he jumped up at once.
Boom!
The wooden door was finally unable to withstand the ravages, and boomed into countless fragments that flew apart.
Tang Tian finally understood what it meant for a house to fall apart, and he stared blankly at the scattered fragments of the wooden door ......
“Foundation Tang! You've finally been expelled! Aha, it's great! Just great!” Amory's ecstatic roar came in from outside the wooden frame.
The corners of Tang Tian's eyes jumped, and evil grew from his guts.
I've seen those who reveal people's scars, but I've never seen those who reveal people's scars like this!
“Hahahahaha! Terrific! Bravo!” Amory's spittle flew in all directions, his huge body rushing in like a gust of wind, “Foundation Tang! This is your destiny! You are the man destined to start a whole new martial arts path with me! Come, come to Beast Academy! Let's start a whole new martial way together!”
Tang Tian, who was about to go on a rampage, was instantly stunned,Beast Academy ......
“Cough.” Tang Tian loosened his raised fist and pretended to cough lightly, acting like an old geezer: “Stupid cow, could it be that you have some kind of doorway in Beast Academy?”
“Doorway? What doorway?” Amory was at a loss.
Tang Tian immediately died, damn, there really are people in this world who are dumber than mine! Greatly disappointed, Tang Tian waved his hand, “Let's also discuss the matter of you compensating me for the door.”
Amory glanced at the door, then retracted his gaze and said with a face full of eagerness, “Basic Tang, come to Mastodon Academy ......”
Tang Tian looked at Amory rather helplessly, muttering in his heart, how could there be such a stupid person in this world ......
And so on!
“How did you know I dropped out of school?” Tang Tian's face clouded over.
“Don't you know? The Zhou family didn't want to spread the word, how did they know that Young Master Zhou was stupid and proudly proclaimed it, but he let out the word that he would be the boss of Ander Academy in the future! Now the entire Star Wind City knows about it, right, the Zhou family has lost a lot of face this time!” Amory heatedly.
Zhou Family!
Tang Tian then realized, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, his fists clenched fiercely, this account would definitely be settled back!
“Come to the Fierce Beast Academy! Come come come!” Amory eyed Tang Tian.
Seeing this, Tang Tian had no choice but to be even more blunt: “I only know basic martial arts, and I've just been expelled, so how could Fierce Beast Academy accept me?”
“Seems like oh!” Amory had a dazed look on his face and nodded repeatedly.
Seeing this look on his face, Tang Tian didn't even have the urge to curse.
Amory frowned and squatted on the ground with a face of bitter contemplation.
“Hey, hurry up and pay me back for my door money.” Tang Tian reminded Amory, “Don't waste my time, I still have to find a job. A god-like man has to find a job too!”
Just then, Amory, who was squatting on the ground, brightened up and suddenly slapped the ground in excitement, “Haha! I have a solution!”
Bang!
Tang Tian only felt the ground shake, nearly unsteady.
Amory's entire palm was embedded into the floor, and at the edge of his palm, were cracks as dense as a spider's web.
In the dust that fell from the ceiling, Tang Tian was dumbfounded, his eyes straight.
Tang Tian looked at the old man in front of him who was dressed even more shabbily and sloppily than himself, and with a suspicious face, he turned his face and looked at Amory, this stupid cow wouldn't pull himself to do a good deed, right?
Although he looked like a good person at first glance, he couldn't pick this time ah!
“Old man Wei, I sent a great genius over to your school!” Amory said with a big grin, he was obviously familiar with the old man.
School?
Tang Tian was even more suspicious when he heard these two words, no school would allow such a scruffy person to serve in the school!
“Genius?” Old man Wei narrowed his eyes, “A genius of basic martial arts?”
Amory was taken aback and looked impressed, “Ahhhhhh! Even you can tell!”
Tang Tian rolled his eyes at the side, dude, can't you understand the opposite of what he said?
Amory was incredibly proud and continued, “He is the martial artist I admire the most, possessing the heart of the strongest martial artist, aspiring to create his own martial arts path, known as the perfect foundation Tang Tian, a god-like man!”
“Ho ho ho! Sounds awesome!” Old man Wei laughed gleefully, squinting his eyes and looking Tang Tian up and down.
“How's that? Earned a lot!” Amory thumped his chest, his face smug, “As long as you recruit him in, your crappy school, you can definitely make a turnaround.”
“Well, well, well, well, very reasonable. However, for something so interesting, Amory, don't you want to participate in it?” Old Man Wei smiled and said to Amory.
Tang Tian couldn't look away, in his eyes, this old man was simply hitting on Amory with that abduction look. Although he wanted to get into the school, he wouldn't be willing to let Amory suffer if he did so.
Although the fly cow was a bit stupid, his brother couldn't be unrighteous.
He was about to open his mouth to stop, when he suddenly heard Amory wiggle his carrot-thick fingers and start counting: ''Going isn't impossible, but the treatment has to be guaranteed. One fourth-order Soul General card, Blade Technique class, at least a silver card. Three times the usual subsidy. Five fourth-order star stones, fifty third-order star stones, and full marks in all disciplines without exams. If I can kill into the former Star Wind City government examination top fifty, reward fourth order star stone five, top thirty, fourth order star stone ten. Top ten, twenty fourth-order star stones, top five, forty fourth-order star stones, and for the first place, one fifth-order star stone.”
Tang Tian heard completely dumbfounded, this is simply a treacherous businessman ah!
The lion's opening opened up ...... inhumanly!
“Deal!” Old man Wei didn't hesitate and agreed in one bite.
Tang Tian instantly had the urge to burst into tears.
