Returning home, Lu He and Lu Yu eagerly approached to inquire about Lu Yun’s strength.
Lu Yun rehashed the explanation he gave to the Old Village Head, then returned to his room and closed the door.
“He broke through while practicing, and even became a Martial Artist?” Lu He was dumbfounded, stunned by Lu Yun’s words.
“I remember that he said last time that he broke through while practicing, and it’s the same this time.” Lu Yu awkwardly said.
Lu He shook his head, feeling obviously defeated.
“Ah, Xiaoyun has excellent martial arts talent which is great for our family and the village. We should be happy.” Lu Yu comforted him.
“Yes, we should be happy!” Lu He tried hard to squeeze out a smile.
In his room, Lu Yun flipped through the Mix Origin Technique manual, which detailed how to use the Heaven and Earth’s energy to temper oneself, stimulate physical potential, strengthen vitality, and enhance physical strength and burst power.
It took Lu Yun an hour to memorize the content, and then he called out his panel with a thought.
[Name]: Lu Yun
[Force]: Spirit Creek Village
[Martial Arts]: Breaking Wind Saber Technique (Perfection, Not Upgradable),Mix Origin Technique (Pre-Entry, Not Upgradable)
[Innate Talent]: Level 5
[Martial Arts]: Enter Martial Realm Early Stage
[Energy Points]: 0.9
If one does not record their martial arts techniques, they won’t appear on the panel.
Now, the Mix Origin Technique appeared on the panel, proving that Lu Yun had fully memorized it.
Since all energy points were used to enhance the Breaking Wind Saber Technique, Lu Yun couldn’t take shortcuts.
However.
Not being able to use energy points to improve martial arts does not mean one should waste their days away.
Lu Yun’s innate talent was now Level 5, which was considered good, and he believed that even with his own hard work, he could improve his martial arts.
——
Time always flies when one is practicing diligently.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
During this time, Lu Yun practiced and accumulated energy points without neglecting either.
Meanwhile, as he practiced, his reputation as a genius gradually spread throughout Spirit Creek Village.
Lu Yun, of course, didn’t pay much attention to this.
In Lu Yun’s view, only improving his own strength was the truly important task at hand.
Ding dong!
One day, the entrance gate was knocked on.
Lu Yun opened the door and saw Lu Youxiong standing outside.
“Uncle Youxiong!” Lu Yun’s face broke into a sunny smile.
“Hmm.” Lu Youxiong kindly nodded, his eyes full of anticipation as he said, “I heard that you chose the Mix Origin Technique from the Talent Building last time. Have you reached the Entry Level yet?”
“I just reached Entry Level.” Lu Yun’s eyes flickered, revealing a brilliant smile.
Over the past month, he had achieved rapid progress through day and night hard work, so it wasn’t as simple as just reaching Entry Level. However, to avoid causing a commotion, he didn’t tell the truth.
“Haha, I knew you could do it.” Lu Youxiong waved his strong right hand and slapped Lu Yun’s shoulder, laughing, “You’re the first in Spirit Creek Village to reach Entry Level with the Mix Origin Technique, and you did it in just one month. The future is boundless!”
Lu Yun awkwardly touched his nose and silently checked the progress of his Mix Origin Technique.
[Mix Origin Technique: Small Achievement (3%), Not Upgradable]
[Energy Points: 0.1]
Having reached Small Achievement in the Mix Origin Technique in just one month was something no one else could have anticipated.
Although he used some energy points, he didn’t gain too many during this month, and the improvement of the Mix Origin Technique mostly relied on Lu Yun’s day-by-day hard work.
After exchanging a few casual words with Lu Yun, Lu Youxiong said, “There’s less than half a month until the Martial Academy’s assessment, so you must leave now to participate. Lu Liangpeng and Lu Tianhu are already prepared, so hurry up and get ready.”
“I’m all packed and won’t delay anyone’s time.” Just then, Lu Yu came out of the house with a bundle in her hand.
“Xiaoyun is going away, and all I can do is make a new outfit for you in my spare time.” As Lu Yu handed the bundle to Lu Yun, her face showed reluctance.
Ever since Lu Yun showed extraordinary martial arts talent, she knew that her younger brother didn’t belong to this place or even to Cloud Water County, so she had been prepared.
However, when faced with separation, she realized how reluctant she was in her heart.
“Sister, don’t worry. When I achieve success in the martial arts, I will definitely bring you and elder brother to the city!” Lu Yun solemnly declared.
“I believe in you, Xiaoyun!” Lu Yu smiled and nodded, holding back her tears and pretending to be strong.
“Xiaoyun, we’ll be waiting for your name to spread throughout Cloud Water County, and even in Ling Province!” Lu He laughed loudly, his eyes filled with pride as he looked at Lu Yun.
Compared to Lu Yu’s reluctance, Lu He was more proud.
This was his younger brother, with extraordinary martial arts talent and immeasurable future achievements. A small Spirit Creek Village could not constrain him, and Cloud Water County or even the larger Ling Province was his true stage.
Lu Yu looked at Lu Yun with reluctance, rubbing her dress corners with her small hands and her eyes reddened.
“Eldest brother, sister, I’m leaving!” Lu Yun’s eyes glistened with tears. Although he was reluctant at heart, he eventually had to leave.
Having said that, he picked up his bundle and, carrying his saber, turned and left with Lu Youxiong.
First, they went to the Village Head’s house, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Lu Liangpeng, Lu Tianhu, and two middle-aged men already waiting there.
Lu Yun recognized one of the middle-aged men as the captain of the Spirit Creek Village hunting team and Lu Tianhu’s father, Lu Bingsheng.
As for the other strong man, Lu Yun guessed that he should be Lu Liangpeng’s father.
“Is everyone here?”
Quickly, the Old Village Head, Lu Cangsheng, walked out of the house.
He looked extremely old, but his eyes were sharp and piercing, giving people a powerful sense of oppression.
“Village Head!”
Lu Yun and the others greeted him one by one.
“Bingsheng, during my absence, you must work with Youxiong to take good care of the village.” Lu Cangsheng instructed.
“Don’t worry, Village Head. I will order the hunting team to strengthen security during the day, ensuring that there is no mishap.” Lu Bingsheng said, patting his chest.
Lu Cangsheng nodded, looked at Lu Yun, Lu Liangpeng, and Lu Tianhu, and kindly said, “Alright, let’s get ready to set off!”contemporary romance
No sooner had he finished speaking than a carriage appeared outside the door, driven by a young man who was also one of the martial artists in the village. Lu Yun remembered that he was called Lu Cang, and he had a good relationship with his eldest brother Lu He.
“Village Head, get in the carriage!” Lu Cang loudly said.
Quickly, they boarded the carriage, which slowly set off and drove away from Spirit Creek Village.
“It really is desolate.”
Out of Spirit Creek Village, the area became sparsely populated. The carriage traveled dozens of miles without encountering a single person.
The world was chaotic, with sects hostile towards one another and conflicts between provinces. Travelers were few and far between, except those with some strength of their own.
Even then, they traveled in groups, like Lu Yun and his group.
Due to the Old Village Head’s presence, the atmosphere inside the carriage remained silent and oppressive.
After traveling for several hours, Lu Liangpeng couldn’t stand the silence and started to chat idly with Lu Yun.
Of course, their conversation was limited to their daily lives in the village and they rarely talked about each other’s cultivation progress.
