This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!

Chapter 435: Chapter 2: The Ghostly Shadow Appears, Heading to Daluo

“Why am I leading the team?”

Li Fei asked, puzzled.

He was still just a student of Wuda, representing Wuda to attend such an important event—was that really appropriate?

“The previous Martial Arts Exchange Competition was decreed by the Emperor to be held at Wuda; we’d already communicated with the Daluo Sect beforehand, and my going there was just to show the importance of the competition, a mere formality,”

Shi Caiming, while smoking, explained to Li Fei:

“This time, the exchange competition has not been decreed by the Emperor to be held in any specific location, and the Central Cabinet has not yet come up with a definite outcome, so in the following days, all universities will send representatives to the Daluo Sect to discuss this matter.”

Li Fei understood.

Such a Martial Arts exchange competition was undoubtedly a grand event; whichever university hosted it would use the opportunity to increase its influence.

In addition, the court would allocate part of the rewards to the participants of the competition, and the university responsible for organizing the competition would naturally get a share.

In summary, hosting a competition like this had many benefits.

Wuda had already hosted the first one; it was impossible for all good fortune to be Wuda’s, with over a dozen other universities waiting in line.

Therefore, the second competition definitely could not be held at Wuda again.

Shi Caiming was very clear about this, so he couldn’t be bothered to make another trip to the Daluo Sect, especially since there was no chance to win it, might as well slack off and let Li Fei go…

“I understand, thank you, principal,”

Li Fei bowed to Shi Caiming.

Such matter might be insignificant to Shi Caiming, dismissible, but for him, it was very important.

Not everyone had the chance to represent Wuda.

Shi Caiming appointing him to represent Wuda at the Daluo Sect was in itself a public display of his valuation, and also made Li Fei’s standing heavier!

Li Fei was going on behalf of Wuda; any targeting of him was equivalent to taking on the whole Wuda.

Furthermore, the Martial Arts Exchange Competition was an event established by the current Emperor, and Li Fei’s going also counted as carrying out an ‘Imperial Mission’; targeting him would be tantamount to disrespecting the Royal dignity!

Although the fact that Li Fei was the Green-faced Ghost should currently be unknown in the provincial city, Shi Caiming nonetheless took this opportunity to add a few layers of ‘insurance’ for Li Fei.

This way, unless someone wanted mutual destruction, at least the identity of Li Fei would be safe.

Even if one day the identity of the Green-faced Ghost was exposed, if others wanted to harm Li Fei, they would have to consider it deeply.

Li Fei saw through Shi Caiming’s well-intentioned arrangement and therefore paid his respects.

Shi Caiming, seeing that Li Fei had understood his intentions, showed a relieved smile.

Teaching a student like this was truly satisfying.

“Go ahead.”

He waved his hand, indicating that Li Fei could leave.

…

The next day, after finishing a class, Li Fei returned to his dormitory.

He took out a bottle of Sleep Wood Pills from his safe; these were used to calm the Wood Attribute Implants, making them fall into a deep sleep state.

After taking three Sleep Wood Pills, Li Fei sat cross-legged and performed the corresponding Visualization Method.

Soon, the [Illusion Leaf] in his brain fell into a deep sleep, preventing it from interfering with other implants.

Li Fei opened his eyes and gulped down two kinds of pills used to stimulate the [Ghostly Foot].

Over the past month, besides practicing the Red Sound Fire Vajra Skill with Shi Caiming, he spent the rest of his time attending classes and cultivating the [Illusion Leaf] and [Ghostly Foot].

Although he had stepped into the Tao Foundation Stage, there were still some courses at Wuda that were beneficial to him.

In addition to Mo Yizhou’s poison class, he also enrolled in a few professors’ courses to study the techniques of integrating the Five Elements Innate Qi with each other, the application of advanced Gold Attribute Force, and how to deeply stimulate multi-attribute implants.

These three courses all corresponded to his current Realm, especially the last course, which gave him a lot of insights and inspiration for deeply stimulating [Ghostly Foot].

A little over a month ago, the battle with Gu Yufeng.

That fight stimulated the [Ghostly Foot] quite well, making Li Fei feel that it wasn’t far from awakening the second Extraordinary Ability of the [Ghostly Foot], that core-level Extraordinary Ability.

It’s easier to stimulate an implant deeply and unlock its second Extraordinary Ability, but from the second implant onward, the difficulty of deep stimulation exponentially increases!

During the following month, Li Fei applied the techniques learned from Wuda’s professors and persistently stimulated [Ghostly Foot] with painstaking efforts.

He could sense that he was very close to success.

Inside the room, after taking the medicine, Li Fei activated the [Ghostly Foot] and commenced ‘Divine Movement,’ rapidly moving within the room.

The dormitory he lived in alone was quite large; he had deliberately filled the room with many obstacles, and tied bells on each one.

As he moved swiftly inside the room, he had to ensure he did not touch any obstacle, keeping the bells silent.

Not only that, but he also did this with his eyes closed throughout.

So this practice was not only for ‘Divine Movement’, but also ‘Danger Perception’.

After incorporating the second implant, both ‘Overlord Body’ and ‘Danger Perception’ were enhanced.

When Hao Yi trained Li Fei in ‘Danger Perception,’ making him fight blindfolded, it was to train Li Fei’s perception of ‘dynamics’.

Now, as Li Fei navigated swiftly through the room blindfolded, precisely avoiding all obstacles,

It was a training for the perception of ‘statics’.

Li Fei’s ‘Danger Perception’ was almost evolving into ‘Heart’s Eye’, preempt the enemy, gain Insight into the finest details, and imprint everything on the heart!
