High Martial Arts Era

Chapter 39: Starry Spear Technique

"B-level contract?" Song Yi sat on the sofa, murmuring to herself, "In a level-five sub-hall, only the hall master has the authority to sign a B-level contract, and there are at most two slots per year."

"To get more slots, you need to apply to the Jiangcheng sub-hall or even the Jiangbei sub-hall." Whether it's the Starlight Martial Hall or the Starry Sky Martial Hall, the levels of the sub-halls are generally equivalent.

The Guanshan District sub-hall is a level-five sub-hall, the most basic level. The Jiangcheng City sub-hall is a level-four sub-hall. The Jiangbei Province sub-hall is a level-three sub-hall. Above that is the China headquarters, a level-two sub-hall, and the Blue Star headquarters, a level-one sub-hall.

"Wan Qinghe?" "The rumors were true, he loves to gamble." Song Yi whispered to herself, "Just arrived, and already giving me a hard time."

"Let's see what happens." "A kid with decent mental strength but no awakened martial arts spirituality, at best worth a C-level contract, and you actually gave him a B-level contract. I'll be watching to see you make a fool of yourself."

As a source warrior and vice hall master, Song Yi wasn't really concerned about losing out on signing a martial arts genius. It was just that this matter made her feel embarrassed. ... After 10 PM, at Wanhua Platinum Residence, in the Li family home, Li Qianqian and Li Muhua would usually be washed and in bed by this time. Today, the living room lights were on, and the whole family was present.

"Qianqian, Muhua." Li Yuan sat on the sofa, his smart ring watch projecting a light screen, his fingers moving swiftly across it, filling in information quickly. Li Qianqian and Li Muhua stood excitedly beside Li Yuan, staring at the light screen.

Suddenly, a popup appeared on the screen indicating — Family Card approval. "Good." Li Yuan smiled, "Your family cards are ready. Tomorrow, you can use facial recognition to enter the family area of the Starlight Martial Hall."

"Wow! Martial Hall!" "The last time I visited was during a school event. The place is huge." "Training there must be so much better than in the community martial arts room."

"Brother, is it really all free?" Li Qianqian and Li Muhua were extremely excited, eagerly asking Li Yuan. Chen Hui, sitting on a small stool, smiled as she watched this scene.

"Not everything is free." "But things like fruits, drinks, basic therapy, public martial arts rooms, and the weekly public martial arts classes... these are free. Some things do require payment, like nutritional meals, but your family cards are linked to my account. If you want to buy something small, just swipe." Li Yuan said, "From now on, you will have dinner at the Martial Hall and then train in the public martial arts room every evening."

Middle school students don't have evening self-study sessions. "At 9 PM, wait for me at the Martial Hall entrance, and we'll take the car home together." Li Yuan looked at his younger siblings.

L3-level members are provided with a 'personal electric car' by the Martial Hall, with usage rights, available on call within Jiangcheng City. "Yay!" "My classmate bragged about having a W2-level membership card for the Martial Hall." Li Muhua's eyes sparkled, "Brother, from what I read, the family card has even higher privileges, equivalent to a W3-level membership card."

"And therapy." Li Qianqian was also excited, "I always feel sore all over after training..." The siblings chatted more and more excitedly.

Li Yuan felt joy as he watched them. Since the second year of middle school, he had devoted himself entirely to training. It was all for moments like this, to improve his family's conditions.

Li Yuan always felt that he had taken up resources and care meant for his siblings... being able to compensate them was his greatest joy. "Alright, the cards are ready." Chen Hui's smile faded, and she spoke sternly, "Your brother worked hard to get this early contract."

"I don't expect you to be as outstanding as your brother, but you must train diligently at the Martial Hall, understand?" "Got it, Mom." Li Qianqian smiled. "Mom, I will definitely learn from my brother and strive to get an early contract with the Martial Hall too." Li Muhua was full of determination, "Then I'll buy you a big house."

"Sure, sure, I'll wait for you to show your filial piety. Now go take a bath." Chen Hui urged them to the bathroom. A few minutes later, Chen Hui returned to the living room.

"Aunt, I just transferred one million Blue Star coins to you. Did you receive it?" Li Yuan asked quietly. "I told you, we still have money." Chen Hui sighed, "You'll need plenty of money once you become a martial artist."

"Aunt." "This money is for Qianqian and Muhua." Li Yuan said solemnly, "Muhua has awakened his martial arts spirituality. If he follows the usual path, getting into a martial arts university won't be difficult."

"But Qianqian... she hasn't awakened her martial arts spirituality. The basic blood and qi potions must not be stopped; otherwise, her martial arts training will fall behind."

"Qianqian's martial arts talent..." Chen Hui hesitated. She hadn't planned to let Li Qianqiandelve deeply into martial arts training. "Aunt." Li Yuan interrupted Chen Hui, "Qianqian's martial arts talent isn't high, but that's exactly why we need to cultivate her as much as possible. For the college entrance exam, even if she takes the academic route, martial arts scores still account for 30%."

"Qianqian excels academically. As long as her martial arts scores are slightly better, she has a chance to get into a C9 university." Li Yuan said earnestly. "As for me?" "The money I have left is enough for now." "After the midterm exams in January, the school will award scholarships." Li Yuan smiled, "When I get into university, there will be various national scholarships."

After much persuasion, Chen Hui reluctantly agreed to accept the money. ... Late at night, back in his room. "I gave Aunt one million Blue Star coins." "My cash balance is now 1.33 million." Li Yuan glanced at his account balance.

The next cash payment from the Martial Hall, 1.2 million Blue Star coins, would come in October next year. In other words, Li Yuan's current cash and Martial Hall points, used for various martial arts resources, might not last until then.

But Li Yuan didn't regret it. "In martial arts training, money is never enough. If you want to find an excuse not to give, there will always be one." Li Yuan's eyes were sharp, "But my siblings, these years are crucial for them too."

"Not enough resources?" "I'll find a way." "There are still three months until the midterm exams. I'll give it my all to get into the top five." Li Yuan hadn't forgotten Mr. Xu Bo's promise.

Top ten in the grade, ten thousand Blue Star coins. Top five, fifty thousand Blue Star coins in special scholarship. "First, learn the spear technique." Li Yuan sat in the virtual network pod, connecting his consciousness.

Entering his personal training space. Spacious, over 200 meters in length and width, and more than 50 meters high. "Learn the Starry Spear Technique." Li Yuan said aloud, "First-time learning."

Immediately. "Boom~" A lot of light converged, finally forming the figure of a burly man in black battle clothes, holding a long spear, with sharp eyes. He stared at Li Yuan. The invisible aura he emitted made Li Yuan instinctively tense up, but it was only for a moment.

"Virtual teaching?" Li Yuan looked at the man in black. "The Starry Spear Technique is a second-level spear technique, an advanced version of the first-level technique Rock Spear Technique." "The Rock Spear Technique originates from the Rock Practice Method, implying stability and immovability like a rock." The man in black said in a deep voice, "It emphasizes defending by attacking, neutralizing the enemy's momentum..."

"Swish!" As the man in black spoke, he began to wield the long spear, sometimes withdrawing the spear, sometimes thrusting, chopping, or striking, sometimes parrying... the moves seemed simple, but to Li Yuan, they were familiar. It was the Rock Spear Technique he had practiced countless times, and he could see traces of his own spear techniques in it.

Rock Foundation, Hidden Dragon in the Ravine, Mountains and Valleys... one move followed another. It looked ordinary, but in the hands of the man in black, it had a magical, transformative quality. "This!" "This! This!" Li Yuan's eyes widened, "I've practiced spear techniques for years, first mastering the basic moves, then practicing the Rock Spear Technique, finally breaking through to the third stage, and comprehending a few ultimate moves."

"But my moves are nowhere near as seamless and flawless." Li Yuan held his breath. Too powerful! The same moves, but in different hands, had vastly different power; the man in black was far superior to Li Yuan.

"Fourth stage." "The spear technique displayed by this man in black is definitely at the fourth stage, perfectly integrating the body's strength. He is the spear, and the spear is him." Li Yuan understood, "This is the realm of a spear master."

"The Rock Fist Technique has eighteen moves." "The Rock Spear Technique also has eighteen routines." The man in black continued to demonstrate,
