Chapter 538 - 538: Protective Film (2)
“Dragon Tiger Fist Technique…”
This time, Zhao Yu received a reminder from his super brain.
[Discovered Yellow Grade Upper Class martial art: Dragon Tiger Fist Technique. It has been automatically recorded. Do you want to spend 1 Technology Point to learn it?!]
It was good that it was recorded!
Zhao Yu could not help but be delighted. He did not expect that he would really get a new technique.
” That’s right. This Dragon Tiger Fist Technique is indeed Yellow Grade Upper Class. Do you have any other techniques?”
He Yun was a little stunned. He didn’t know how Zhao Yu could tell if it was correct or not!
At the very least, if someone used two fist techniques to fool him, he wouldn’t be able to tell with his level.
Could it be that he was putting on an act?
With this thought in mind, he recited another cultivation technique.
“Yellow Grade Upper Rank again, Eight Trigram Palm…”
This time, he didn’t read it wrong on purpose. He finished reading it completely and wanted to see what Zhao Yu would say.
[Discovered Yellow Grade Upper Class martial art: Eight Trigrams Palm Technique. It has been automatically recorded. Do you want to spend 1 Technology Point to learn it?]
“Not bad, continue!” Zhao Yu said with a smile.
The suspicion on He Yun’s face grew even more.
He didn’t believe that someone could tell right from wrong just by listening to a cultivation technique.
At the thought of this, he recited another one. This time, it was a movement technique. He combined the two movement techniques together and recited
them.
Unexpectedly, just as he finished reading, Zhao Yu started mocking him.
” What a clumsy performance. The ability of an ancient martial arts successor is not something you people can imagine. I advise you to stop wasting my time!”
His tone of speech was deliberately imitated by Huo Zhen Wu and the other true ancient martial arts successors.
A true ancient martial arts successors!
” What organization are you from? Did you really come from the novice area?!” ” He Yun asked.
“Take a guess!” Zhao Yu said casually.
He Yun calculated and felt that it was impossible for other forces to have such a person. If there was, it was impossible that they had not heard of him after such a long time.
Therefore, Zhao Yu most likely came out from the novice area.
This meant that the other party’s martial arts were very likely to be learned in the real world.
According to Guo Yang’s description, there were many people like him.
So…
Had an ancient martial arts sect from the real world descended upon this place?
This was the only way to explain why Zhao Yu was able to understand whether the cultivation technique was complete or not.
Whether it was true or not, he would know if he tried again.
He Yun recited another cultivation technique as final test.
This time, he was reciting a Mystery Grade Low Class Lightfoot skill. He wanted to know if Zhao Yu could understand it.
[Discovered Mystery Grade Low Class: Cloud Ascension Ladder Lightfoot, automatically recorded. Would you like to spend 2 technology points to initiate it?]
A lower class Mystery grade technique?!
Zhao Yu was elated, not expecting He Yun to recite such technique.
According to the Super Brain’s prompt, the technology points required to enhance proficiency in this grade technique had increased to 2 points.
But that was secondary; currently, he had no spare technology points for learning.
“Not bad, a lower class Mystery grade technique. Do you have more?”
“You really could determine it by listening?!”
He Yun was shocked.
He had never encountered anyone like this!
“Heh, you know nothing about descendants of ancient martial arts!” Zhao Yu scoffed.
He Yun believed that Zhao Yu could indeed comprehend these techniques.
A capability likely exclusive to the descendants of ancient martial arts.
He envied that Zhao Yu already knew so much martial arts.
“No more, Mystery grade techniques are expensive, even in the camp, they’re hard to come by. This one cost me a lot of money and favors!”
He Yun’s words were true; only second-tier camps had Mystery grade techniques.
As his stamina continued to deplete, He Yun felt he couldn’t last much longer.
“Kid, we’re ultimate fighter. Continuing this stubbornness will only benefit the monster chasing us…”
He grew fearful; continuing to run would deplete their stamina but the monster behind was tireless.
If Zhao Yu died, that was one thing, but dragging him down too was infuriating.
“Heh, as a nobody, dying alongside the boss of Wang Feng Valley wouldn’t be so bad!” Zhao Yu said lightly, not seeking help.
This strategy indeed hooked He Yun.
“I know how to evade the king-level monster. You don’t have to drag me down with you…”
“Oh?!”
Zhao Yu seemed unconcerned, casually responding.
“Let’s hear it.”
He Yun sighed and revealing his trump card at this moment, “The king-level monster is confined to this area…”
“Just run to a tier one area, and the king-level monster can’t follow us anymore!”
“First tier area?!”
“Exactly!”
He Yun explained, “We’re in the newbie zone, south of the boundary road is considered the outer circle of the newbie zone…”
“This is the inner circle of the newbie zone…”
“At the northernmost part of this newbie zone is a first-tier camp. There’s an invisible barrier like a wall. Crossing it takes you to the first-tier area…”
“That barrier is meant to protect us, the zero-tier humans…”
“Monsters or humans of first-tier level can’t return to the zero-tier area…”
“Likewise, zero-tier area monsters can’t cross the barrier to the first-tier area…”
“But, as far as I know, zero-tier humans aren’t restricted and can freely pass through the barrier…”
Zhao Yu was surprised, wondering why they hadn’t gone to the first-tier area
then.
“Brother, the weakest monsters in the first-tier area are comparable to the king-level monsters here…” He Yun bitterly explained.
“What good would it do for us to go there?”
Understanding dawned on Zhao Yu.
“You must have heard that each of the five overlords possesses a first-tier coin…”
“Entry to the camp has always recognized first-tier coins, not people…”
“So, there have been non-overlord forces organizing hunts in the first-tier area, ended miserable.”
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, understanding that the group must have not succeeded; otherwise, there would have been six or even seven major forces here.
“Since that’s the case, lead the way!”
He Yun nodded and dashed towards the Protective Film.
In reality, he was familiar with the terrain and had reached a few kilometers near the protective film, running parallel to it all this while.
His aim was naturally to have a backup plan, in case he couldn’t exhaust Zhao Yu, he could escape into the first-tier area by himself.
Now, he had no choice but to take Zhao Yu with him.
The two moved quickly and it took them only a few seconds to reach their destination.
It was a wall of air that connected heaven and earth, unnoticeable from afar, but up close, Zhao Yu could clearly see the wall.
“Brother, here we are, go on in!” He Yun shouted loudly.
“Heh, you go in and check it out first!” Zhao Yu said lightly.
With no choice, He Yun had to run towards the air wall.
Behind them, the king-level monster realized there was a problem and roared thunderously while speeding up.
But by then, it was too late.
After seeing He Yun pass through the air wall unharmed, Zhao Yu followed suit.
Indeed, the air wall did not obstruct him.
However, the king-level monster behind them stopped at the other side of the air wall, quietly watching Zhao Yu as it waiting for him to come out.
Safe at last!
Zhao Yu sighed in relief.
Just then, He Yun’s sinister laugh sounded, followed by a gust of wind coming at him.
“Kid, you’ve played me for long.. NOW! go to hell!”
