Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 207 - 95 Innate Divine Strength_2
"No need for Master to say it, I would have done so myself! As fellow disciples, we should help each other!"
"You agree, don't you, Brother Jiang?" Zhou Xing looked at Jiang Ning as he said the last two sentences.
Jiang Ning simply smiled noncommittally, then said, "Brother Zhou does have a point!"
At that moment,
Yu Yuan suddenly spoke up, "Master Wang, my disciple will take the stage first."
As soon as his words fell, several people from the same wooden shed, belonging to the Divine Might Martial Arts Hall, immediately stood up and walked towards the arena.
"Brother Jiang, shall we go over as well?" Zhou Xing asked Jiang Ning.
"Okay!" Jiang Ning nodded.
...
A moment later,
Jiang Ning and his group arrived under the arena located to the southeast.
By this time, the three major arenas had already begun.
Each arena had ten people fiercely battling in the center.
"Brother Jiang, eliminating five out of ten isn't hard, how about you and I team up?" Zhou Xing observed the situation on the arena for a moment, then turned to Jiang Ning and suggested.
"Okay!" Jiang Ning nodded.
Just then,
Zhao Hu suddenly spoke, "Brother Zhou, I have arrangements with others, so I will not join you on stage."
After saying this, without waiting for Zhou Xing to respond, Zhao Hu hurried away.
Zhou Xing watched Zhao Hu's swiftly departing figure, shaking his head.
"It's alright! Since Brother Zhao has his reservations, let him be."
Saying this, Zhou Xing's gaze briefly flitted across Jiang Ning.
Having witnessed the minor conflict between Zhao Hu and Jiang Ning on their way here, he naturally knew what Zhao Hu was wary of at this moment.
It was clear that he was cautious about Jiang Ning potentially attacking him covertly, causing him to fall off the arena.
Such a concern seemed reasonable to Zhou Xing.
After all, this opportunity was like a leap through the dragon gate for someone like Zhao Hu, who came from a commoner background.
Missing it meant losing a chance to rise above his class.
Meanwhile,
Jiang Ning watched Zhao Hu's hastening figure.
"He's quite fast!" he thought to himself.
If they were in the same arena, he wouldn't mind using some tricks to knock Zhao Hu off.
Now that Zhao Hu had left, that plan had to be temporarily abandoned.
...
Soon,
one of the arenas had already concluded.

Five contestants were knocked off the arena, leaving only five remaining, signifying that these five had now become members of the Inspection Office.
Watching these five, the crowd below revealed looks of envy.
Simultaneously,
below the arena, in the area where the Martial Arts Garden disciples were gathered.
"Brother Liuu, shall we take the stage?" A young man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, holding a gold and jade-inlaid longsword, said to Liuu Shansheng.
"No!" Liuu Shansheng shook his head.
"Why not?" the young man with the sword-like eyebrows asked.
Liuu Shansheng said, "Because He Jinyun is about to take the stage!"
Hearing these three words, the young man gasped sharply.
"Sss—"
"He Jinyun is going on stage now? Then we better wait!"
Immediately, a sense of retreat emerged in the young man's words.
At this moment, Liuu Shansheng also nodded slightly, "He Jinyun is known for his Innate Divine Strength. There's no need for me to confront him head-on right now."
"Brother Liuu is right!" another young man beside him interjected. "With Innate Divine Strength, he has an advantage at Eighth Grade, but that won't be the case later. There's no need for you, Brother Liuu, to compete with him at this point."
"Compete? You think you're qualified?" suddenly, a cold snort came from behind.
The group turned and saw a lean man with sallow skin approaching them, immediately showing signs of wariness.
For he was He Jinyun, the one they spoke of, a practitioner of Innate Divine Strength.
Also known as the top of the Eighth Grade among the students of the Martial Arts Garden.
Hearing the mocking tone in He Jinyun's voice, Liuu Shansheng's expression darkened slightly.
"He Jinyun, don't be arrogant."
"What if I am arrogant?" He Jinyun showed a mouthful of yellow teeth as he sneered at Liuu Shansheng, "I've always disliked people like you! If you're displeased with me, you can come up to the arena and fight me fair and square!"
With these words, He Jinyu passed by with his group towards an empty arena.
Watching He Jinyun's departing figure swagger away, Liuu Shansheng's face alternated between shades of green and white.
He knew, even though he had already entered the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm and had some renown in the Martial Arts Garden, it was merely due to his age.
In terms of talent and ability, he was no match for He Jinyun.
He was nearing his thirties, while He Jinyun was just over twenty.
Regarding strength, both being Martial Arts Eighth Grade, He Jinyun had only recently entered this realm and did not have as long a period of accumulation as I had.
But with his Innate Divine Strength, I was certainly no match for him now.
In terms of status?
My family in Luoshui, while looking at the whole of Dongling City, was just an ordinary family, one that had just established its roots in Dongling City.
The He family, however, was an Earl's family of the Fourth Grade, even a declining Earl's mansion was far superior to the Liuu family.
Even though He Jinyun was the youngest in his generation of the Earl's mansion, compared to me, the eldest legitimate son of the Liuu family, he could step on my face and his father would still have to apologize for him.
...
On the other side.
Watching as one of the arena stages had just been cleared.
Zhou Xing suddenly spoke, "Brother Jiang, let's go up together!"
"Not in a hurry, let's wait a bit longer!" Jiang Ning raised his hand to stop Zhou Xing from being too eager.
"Why?" Zhou Xing looked at Jiang Ning in surprise.
At this moment, Jiang Ning looked toward a slightly agitated crowd in the distance.
The conversations of the students from the Martial Arts Garden had all been heard by him, thanks to his powerful auditory system, and had reached his ears.
The students from the Martial Arts Garden were also the group he paid most attention to today.
The students from Dongling City's Martial Arts Garden were of orthodox backgrounds and deep foundations.
Those Martial Arts Garden students were either scions of illustrious families or individuals with exceptional talent.
In terms of resources and perspectives, they were far superior to the so-called prodigies of Luoshui County.
Thus, without a doubt, their strength was naturally much more formidable than those so-called prodigies from Luoshui County.
You should know that in Luoshui County, Shi Xiaoyuan, who was Martial Arts Eighth Grade, could control the vast Green Snake Gang, which showed the not so high levels of martial prowess in Luoshui County.
Under such circumstances, the so-called prodigies, even Zhou Xing who was considered a Kirin child, even if he did everything for the chance at the Inspection Office, Martial Arts Eighth Grade was probably the limit.
But Dongling City was different, it was a County, not just a County town.
Families that could establish themselves in a County had fortunes and power that were certainly much superior to those in a County town, let alone other resources and connections.
Thus, the Martial Arts Strongmen from a County were naturally much more numerous than those from a County town.
Therefore, in Jiang Ning's view, it would not surprise him if a Seventh Grade Martial Artist emerged from this group of Martial Arts Garden students.
Under such circumstances, he naturally paid special attention to the conversations about the Martial Arts Garden disciples and thus heard the conversation from Liuu Shansheng.
He Jinyun's name was also deeply etched in his mind.
Because of those four words.
Innate Divine Strength!
Thinking of this, Jiang Ning said, "Brother Zhou, the Martial Arts Garden students are going on stage, shall we watch them first?"
"Martial Arts Garden students?" Zhou Xing was immediately startled, then quickly composed himself.
"That sounds good!" Zhou Xing nodded, "Then let's follow Brother Jiang's suggestion and see what these Martial Arts Garden disciples are capable of."
...
A few breaths later.
A few people had just gone up.
The next moment.
Boom boom boom——
Five individuals suddenly leaped from the crowd, crossing a distance of several yards, and landed on the arena.
"Are these five the Martial Arts Garden disciples Brother Jiang mentioned?" Zhou Xing asked softly at the side.
"Yes!" Jiang Ning nodded.
Zhou Xing said, "They look ordinary, especially that pale and skinny one, he doesn't look like a Martial Artist at all, more like a sick person!"
Hearing this, Jiang Ning slowly shook his head, "Brother Zhou, appearances can be deceiving!"
At this moment, Jiang Ning's gaze continued to sweep over these five individuals.
He knew that among these five, there was probably a prodigy from the Eighth Grade Divine Power Realm, and also the one proclaimed to have Innate Divine Strength.
But he couldn't tell who it was.
Because just now, he had only heard their voices and not seen them.
Just then.
The pale and skinny He Jinyun spoke to the host, "Hurry up! If the check is done, don't waste time! The sun is really scorching."
It's him!
Hearing this voice, Jiang Ning instantly identified the pale and skinny He Jinyun.
The sound was consistent, which confirmed for him that this person was the one with Innate Divine Strength mentioned by Liuu Shansheng.
Jiang Ning took another look at He Jinyun and thought to himself.
You really can't tell!
How could this appearance and physique possess Innate Divine Strength?
At this time.
The host on the arena, faced with the urging from He Jinyun, was not annoyed at all.
"Young Master, don't be in a hurry, we need to check each identity carefully!"
"Hurry up! I'm in a hurry to go back and rest!" He Jinyun said lazily.
"No problem, Young Master!" the host responded.
