Eternal Life: I Have the Favor System-Chapter 217 - 152: Ambition

The Great Yuan Dynasty had over thirty Governor’s Mansions and several hundred cities in total.

Since the Court system was implemented, everyone was encouraged to practice martial arts. Each Martial Arts Examination produced hundreds of top scorers in the Daoist Examinations and over thirty Jie Yuans in the Provincial Examinations.

Over the years, there had been no shortage of women who achieved dazzling results in the Martial Arts Examinations. Some female Military Generals had even been deified.

The South City Daoist Examination.

Chu Lingguang and Hei Hu had also seen women participate in the Martial Arts Examination. Though they had trained to be burly and thick-waisted, their Qi Power was unfortunately far inferior to men’s, and they all ultimately failed.

They never expected a woman to become a top scorer elsewhere.

Moreover, the two women before them were slender with fair skin. Their tight-fitting martial attire made them look striking and heroic, and they projected an inviolable aura.

Clearly, they had managed to take the top spots not through sheer muscle and hardened bones, but by the vast Qi Power hidden within their bodies.

The two of them must have started practicing an Advanced Breathing Method from a young age, with abundant resources and guidance from a famous master. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to clinch the top spot in the Martial Arts Examination with such delicate physiques.

After seeing the two of them yesterday, Chu Lingguang and Hei Hu had muttered about them in private. Now that they knew their identities, they both had strange thoughts.

Hei Hu’s competitive spirit was ignited. He couldn’t help but ask himself, ’Why can’t I measure up to a woman? If I married someone like her, who would be in charge of the household and who would be in charge of external affairs?’

Chu Lingguang, on the other hand, wanted to see what kind of Breathing Technique the two women practiced that allowed them to become top scorers in the Martial Arts Examination.

"Before Samba arrives, I will help the eight of you activate your Bloodline Dragon Elephant. As for how many paths of the Bloodline Dragon Elephant you activate before he gets here, that will depend on your physiques and your fortune," Feng Zhiwen said.

"Thank you, Mr. Feng."

"Thank you, Mr. Feng."

Everyone spoke respectfully. Helping them activate their Bloodline Dragon Elephant was a great kindness.

"You can all spar with each other in your free time. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can also come and ask me," Guo Wei instructed.

When he went to find Feng Zhiwen, this group had been lining up, waiting for him to activate their Bloodline Dragon Elephant. After learning that the Turkic Mission had arranged a fight with Chu Lingguang, they came over with Feng Zhiwen.

Firstly, they wanted to stay by Feng Zhiwen’s side and wait to have their Bloodline Dragon Elephant activated. Secondly, they wanted to see what kind of person this Chu Lingguang was to have been singled out by the Turkic Mission. And thirdly, they hoped to contribute in the future and make a name for themselves.

Guo Wei knew what they were thinking.

Considering this group was quite strong, all top scorers from their respective regions, he agreed to let them come along. It was a good opportunity for them to integrate with Chu Lingguang. Perhaps they could create some interesting sparks together.

Time was tight, so Feng Zhiwen began helping everyone activate their Bloodline Dragon Elephant that very day. In Chu Lingguang’s imagination, Feng Zhiwen’s method would be to teach them some special cultivation Skill to guide them in activating it.

But to his surprise, Feng Zhiwen’s method was a combination of acupuncture and medicinal tea. He used acupressure techniques and the potency of the tea to activate the Bloodline Dragon Elephant in their bodies.

No wonder Guo Wei had said before that the key was a single word: pain.

Guo Wei had long since asked Master Yan to prepare the medicinal herbs Feng Zhiwen needed. That morning, while everyone was finishing breakfast, Martial Artists from Master Yan’s household had just delivered a cartload of herbs to the Martial Arts Hall.

Feng Zhiwen personally mixed the herbs, and after lighting a stove, he had Guo Fang and Mrs. Chu of the Zhang Family watch over it.

Afterward, in the backyard, he had Chu Lingguang and the seven others sit on the sandy ground, close their eyes, and circulate their Breathing Technique.

The six top scorers from various regions each began to showcase their Divine Abilities.

Xue Bingsheng was the top scorer of Jinchuan City, under the jurisdiction of the Taihu Governor’s Mansion. A Noble Family Disciple, he ranked third in the third round at Taihu Academy. He had simultaneously awakened two paths of Dragon Elephant Power and had a total of four paths of the Bloodline Dragon Elephant when he left the academy.

Yuan Zeng was the top scorer of Salt City, under the jurisdiction of the Taihu Governor’s Mansion. A Noble Family Disciple, he ranked second in the third round at Taihu Academy. He had simultaneously awakened two paths of the Bloodline Dragon Elephant and had a total of four paths when he left Taihu Academy.

Lian Junmiao was the top scorer of Iron Horse City, under the jurisdiction of the Taihu Governor’s Mansion. A Noble Family Disciple, he ranked first in the third round at Taihu Academy. He had simultaneously awakened two paths of the Bloodline Dragon Elephant and had a total of five paths of the Bloodline Dragon Elephant when he left the academy.

Hu Yong was the top scorer of Mazhou City, under the jurisdiction of the Mazhou Governor’s Mansion. He came from a line of Hereditary Military Generals and ranked third in the third round at Mazhou Academy. He had simultaneously awakened two paths of the Bloodline Dragon Elephant, had a total of three paths when he left the academy, and had mastered the Majestic Skin Aspect.

Du Juan was the top scorer of Yunchuan City, under the jurisdiction of the Mazhou Governor’s Mansion. A member of the Royal Family and Relatives, she ranked second in the third round at Mazhou Academy. She had simultaneously awakened three paths of Dragon Elephant Power, had a total of four paths when she left the academy, and had mastered the Majestic Skin Aspect.

Liu Qingqing was the top scorer of Celestial Peace City, under the jurisdiction of the Mazhou Governor’s Mansion. Hailing from a powerful and noble family, she had trained under a Royal Martial Artist and ranked first in the third round at Mazhou Academy. She had simultaneously awakened three paths of Dragon Elephant Power, had a total of six paths when she left the academy, and had mastered the Majestic Skin Aspect.

The achievements of the six were each more dazzling than the last.

After Chu Lingguang and Hei Hu learned these details from Guo Wei, they were speechless for a long time. Neither of them had expected Du Juan and Liu Qingqing to be so powerful. No wonder Liu Qingqing had dared to say she would take care of Samba for him.

Simultaneously awakening three paths of Dragon Elephant Power, having a total of six paths of the Bloodline Dragon Elephant upon leaving the academy, and even mastering the Majestic Skin Aspect—such talent was no less impressive than Yan Zhen’s.

Even though they were women, they were not opponents just anyone could handle.

Especially considering Du Juan was part of the Royal Family and Relatives, and Liu Qingqing was from a powerful noble family who had also trained under a Royal Martial Artist. Their heaven-defying resources and backgrounds were simply suffocating.

One had to understand that although the Yan Family had a deep foundation, they were merely a Noble Family, not true nobility, let alone comparable to the Royal Family and Relatives.
