Christina lay on the ground, resembling a toad, while simultaneously activating her lung strength and breathing intensely.
The next moment, her body twisted suddenly and she sprang out, smacking a fly on the wall dead with a slap.
The teacher in the suit said without expression, "Zhou Bai, what are you doing? How many times is this now? Why are you always hitting flies? Mosquitoes?"
Christina, embarrassed, wiped her face with her hand, "It was an accident, all accidents."
The teacher shook his head but noted today’s event in his mind.
Thus, that very evening, several new records were added to Zhou Bai’s student profile.
"Suspected to possibly have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, characterized by lack of concentration and excessive activity."
"Physical strength has increased rapidly, with extremely strong resistance to blows, suspected of awakening Divine Blood lineage."
Meanwhile, Christina lay down again, activating her lung power and full bodily strength, and her body shuddered as the muscles intertwined and tightened like strands of steel wire, continually accumulating power.
With intense exhaling, a continuous croaking sound came from her lungs, as if an actual toad was calling.
After more than ten seconds, her sternum expanded to its limit and her muscle fibers also tensed to their breaking point. Christina, controlling Zhou Bai’s body, was like a spring compressed to the extreme, which then released and shot out with a boom.
In a flash, she controlled a pair of meaty palms, mixing them with the power of the Primordial Spirit, and fiercely struck a large steel plate over ten meters away.
The terrifying force exploded from the point of contact with the steel plate, radiating outward in all directions, instantly shattering the entire plate, then shooting out like bullets in every direction.
Seeing the results of her strike, Christina’s face showed immense surprise, then she clenched her fists tightly, thinking to herself, "So useful, Zhou Bai’s body is really useful. This physique is too powerful, and this Toad Skill move is also very impressive. Using Zhou Bai’s body, even just the first level realm, the destructive power far exceeds my flying sword.
The only pity is that it requires over ten seconds to accumulate power."
The teacher in the suit nodded and said with satisfaction, "Very good, you have completely grasped the first realm of the Toad Skill. For the next realm, the Five Organs Realm, you will need to study diligently every day, gradually enhancing the strength of your organs and grasping their sensitivities."
"As for the last two realms, don’t pursue them too heavily, as they are time-consuming and exhausting, and you’re not following the path of martial arts to Dao through the blade diagram route, which makes cultivation even slower. And this kind of destructive power, once your sword path cultivation reaches the first realm, will naturally become available."
The teacher continued to advise, "Also, you need to pay attention to this issue of accumulative power. Although the Toad Skill is powerful, accumulating power takes too long. You must never use it lightly in battle, and even if you do accumulate power, know when to stop, just two or three seconds should suffice. Really taking over ten seconds to accumulate, you would have been killed by then..."
Hearing about the issue of accumulated power, Christina immediately chuckled to herself.
For others, accumulating power for so much time in battle would be incredibly difficult.
But for Zhou Bai, who possessed terrifying defensive power even while lying or crouching down, this accumulation time was hardly a concern.
"Based on my tests these past few days, ordinary cultivators at level 0 can’t even break through the defenses of Zhou Bai lying down, and even among level 1 cultivators, only a few exceptional ones could possibly penetrate his defenses."
Today’s Toad Skill lesson ended, and Christina respectfully saw the teacher off. She then went to another classroom as per her schedule to learn the basics of Array knowledge.
A white-haired elder said with a smile, "Here comes Zhou Bai, today we’re studying the Three Talents Formation."
A moment later, observing Zhou Bai who constantly fidgeted in his chair, appearing restless no matter how he sat, he thought to himself, "Could this child possibly..."
That night, another record was added to Zhou Bai’s profile.
"Restlessness, unstable lower stance. Suspected of having hemorrhoids, recommended to strengthen lower stance and limb strength training."
Several hours later, Tina left the classroom, ready to practice the Sword Diagrams again.
Christina, controlling Zhou Bai’s body, arrived at the classroom for the day.
There, she saw a young girl and an old man already present.
Since Ying Hui was not a practitioner of the Sword Diagrams path, Christina naturally needed another teacher to instruct her in the Sword Diagrams.
The girl in front of her was Liu Bingxin, the 10th-ranked student in the special class for practicing the Sword Diagrams, at the first level.
The old man was called "Old Serpent", and he was a strong cultivator of the fifth level in the Sword Diagrams path.
Upon seeing Christina enter, Liu Bingxin kept cultivating by herself, while Old Serpent glanced at Zhou Bai and nodded slightly, saying, "Continue with your previous arrangement today and do not disturb Bingxin."
After finishing his sentence, his gaze affectionately and expectantly turned to Liu Bingxin. ’Bingxin has awakened her Divine Blood lineage, and she possesses the rare innate Sword Bone, making her a prodigy in the art of Sword Flight, perfectly suited to inherit my mantle.
In a year’s time, at the exchange competition, she will surely reach the second level. Then, using her innate Sword Bone to perform my Sword Flight Technique, she will undoubtedly shine brightly and become the top Sword Cultivator student at East Divine Dao School.’
Thinking this, Old Serpent could not help but reveal a slight smile.
Then, he briefly glanced at Zhou Bai, who had already started cultivating, thinking, ’No issues there.’
So he casually said, "Zhou Bai, although you are only at level zero, you can start thinking about which diagram to choose for level one.
The nine fundamental divine diagrams at level zero are just nine different cultivation paths, but the path of cultivation is vast; each cultivation path is extensive, and exploring them fully could consume a lifetime.
The choice of divine diagram at each subsequent level represents the direction you choose to further deepen in these nine paths.
If you cultivate to the first layer of the Sword Diagrams path, our school offers three divine diagrams to choose from: Cheng Ying, Chun Jun, and Gan Jiang Mo Ye."
"Like Bingxin, she chose the Chun Jun Diagram for her first level. You might consider choosing the same one and learn more from her."
Old Serpent then continued to focus all his attention on Liu Bingxin. There, he saw a green Sword Qi circling around Liu Bingxin’s head, which suddenly trembled and split from one into two.
"Good! The Sword Qi has successfully split!"
Liu Bingxin opened her eyes, a trace of joy appearing on her face.
Old Serpent laughed and said, "The first step of splitting the Sword Qi has succeeded, and from here, the path is clear. As long as the power of the Primordial Spirit is sufficient, it can continue to split indefinitely, and the next step is to forge sword artifacts."
Saying this, he gestured with his hand and walked out, "Bingxin, come with me. I have specially reserved a Heavenly Primordial Sword Pill for you, which can greatly help a Sword Cultivator enhance their Sword Qi and harmonize the Golden Lung Qi of the body."
Liu Bingxin nodded quietly and silently followed behind Old Serpent.
However, as she passed by Zhou Bai, she still glanced briefly at Zhou Bai and his pink Sword Qi.
Her eyes momentarily brightened as though a sword light flashed, scanning Zhou Bai’s Sword Qi, then she turned her head away and looked no further.
In her heart, she silently thought: ’The sword stance is weak, possessing a sword but lacking the spirit. I heard he also divided his focus to practice Body Refining Techniques. Is the sword merely a weapon to him? He lacks the resolute heart of a devoted Sword Cultivator; no wonder the teacher doesn’t pay attention to him, only casually teaching him a few things to improve his cultivation level.’
Christina controlled the Sword Qi to flicker back and forth, thinking to herself: "I’ll draw a circle first, then a circle, hmm, maybe a heart shape next. Still, Sword Qi and Sword Flight are better; you can stay far away in a fight, and once I learn Sword Flight, I can escape quickly."
Just as she was about to walk out, Old Serpent suddenly patted his forehead, "I almost forgot." He turned to Zhou Bai who was sitting nearby and said, "Zhou Bai, just self-study for today’s lesson, no need to wait for us anymore, as we won’t be coming back today."
Watching the two leave, Christina pouted slightly, feeling somewhat upset, "This old man is biased, completely disregarding a genius like me, really."
