I Have A Martial Arts Panel-Chapter 337 - Escape to the South, Rank Four

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Escape from here…”

Guan Yue was obviously tempted.

Evidently, she had also noticed that it would be difficult for the Black Willow Institute to recover from this crisis.

“However, where can I escape to…”

Guan Yue frowned.

Once the Black Willow Institute was destroyed, they, the disciples of the now Black Willow Institute, would be on the list of targets.

Once she appeared in their territory, her life would be in danger.

“The further the better.”

Xu Ning said.

“Mmm…”

Guan Yue weighed her options and looked at Xu Ning. “Are you going to escape here as well?”

“Of course.”

Xu Ning nodded.

Xu Ning did not plan to stay any longer, in case something unexpected happened. Plus, he had already gathered enough energy units for a rank four advancement.

“Where are you going?”

Guan Yue asked.

“South of the Barren Wind Region.”

Xu Ning gave an answer.

Xu Ning already had a plan.

Compared to the north of the Barren Wind Region, the arcanist community in the southern part of the Barren Wind Region was larger. There were more arcanist organizations there, meaning that there were also a lot of wars there.

In that kind of environment, it was easiest to find opportunities to obtain large amounts of resources.

“South of the Barren Wind Region…”

Guan Yue was intrigued.

“Can I come with you?”

Guan Yue pleaded with Xu Ning.

She knew very well that if she migrated to the south from the north of the Barren Wind Region, even if she was a rank two arcanist, her life would be in danger.

When passing by some arcanist institutions, some powerful arcanists would occasionally kidnap weaker lone arcanists and force them to become their subordinates, basically forcing them to assist in their cultivation while also taking away their personal freedom.

Some arcanists would even experiment with weaker arcanists in order to study their own arcane techniques or develop arcane medicines.

Therefore, it was very risky to leave one’s own arcanist institution and become a lone arcanist.

“Sure.”

Xu Ning did not refuse.

Finding someone to take care of his daily needs and some chores was a good choice.

Moreover, Guan Yue gave him a good impression.

“The head of the Black Willow Institute has fled with injuries! The disciples of the Black Willow Institute who are still resisting, quickly surrender!”

A loud voice spread throughout the entire Black Willow Institute.

“That is the voice of one of the rank four arcanists who fought with Institute Head Fang!”

Xu Ning and Guan Yue both realized that they were in deep trouble.

“Go!”

After learning that Institute Head Fang had fled far away, Xu Ning sped up his movements, grabbed Guan Yue, and fled outside the Black Willow Institute.

Not only Xu Ning and Guan Yue were fleeing, but the other disciples of the Black Willow Institute and even the instructors all lost their fighting spirit and fled.

“Chase after the deserters of the Black Willow Institute!”

There were sounds of pursuit everywhere.

Xu Ning and Guan Yue were also targeted by several waves of enemies.

But Xu Ning easily defeated them all and left the territory of the Black Willow Institute with Guan Yue in tow.

…

Inside a desolate mountain.

“There should be no more pursuers.”

After running non-stop for half a day, Xu Ning and Guan Yue finally stopped.

“Let’s rest for a while.”

Xu Ning and Guan Yue found a cave.

“We will leave in two days.”

They ate some food to replenish their energy.

Xu Ning walked deep into the cave and sat cross-legged alone.

He was ready to advance to a rank four arcanist.

Guan Yue secretly looked at Xu Ning who was sitting cross-legged.

Her eyes were full of curiosity towards Xu Ning.

Yesterday, Xu Ning was just an ordinary servant in her eyes, but today, the strength he displayed refreshed Guan Yue’s understanding of him.

‘In any case, I’m lucky to have escaped from death… I just hope that my journey from now onwards will be relatively smoother…’

Guan Yue prayed.

Afterwards, she closed her eyes and sat cross-legged. She leaned against the wall of the cave and fell asleep.

As for Xu Ning, he was opening the Martial Arts Panel.

…

Consume 2,500 units to advance to a rank four arcanist?

Yes / No

…

‘Yes.’

With a thought from Xu Ning, he made another breakthrough in his realm.

A rank four arcanist could already be considered a master in the world of arcanists.

‘This feels pretty good…’

Xu Ning felt the surging power of an arcanist in his body.

‘I still have more than 500 units of energy left. With this amount, I can practice a more advanced arcane technique.’

Xu Ning thought to himself.

The Arcanist World was different from the Martial Arts World. The attribute power of the Martial Arts World was determined by the cultivation technique.

But in the Arcanist World, one could practice any attribute-based arcane technique. As long as one could successfully practice it, the power of an arcanist could activate it.

‘What arcane technique should I choose…’

There were more than a hundred arcane techniques in the memory crystal given to him by Duan Huiyao.

“This one…”

After going through the array of techniques, Xu Ning confirmed the arcane technique he was going to practice.

This arcane technique was called Gravity Field. After practicing it, one could manipulate gravity within a certain range.

‘Engrave…’

Xu Ning easily engraved it on the Martial Arts Panel.

…

Consume 500 units of energy to cultivate Gravity Field?

Yes / No

…

‘Yes.’

Xu Ning easily learned a new arcane technique.

‘Arcane techniques that cost 500 units are indeed stronger…’

Xu Ning thought to himself after testing the skill.

The arcane techniques in the Arcanist World were different from the techniques in the Martial Arts World.

In the Martial Arts World, as long as one was in the same realm, the energy consumed to cultivate a technique was the same.

But the arcane techniques in the Arcanist World consumed varying amounts of energy according to the overall combat power.

‘With my current strength, I should be able to safely reach the southern part of the Barren Wind Region…’

Xu Ning thought to himself,?‘Moreover, after reaching the southern part of the Barren Wind Region, I should be able to easily stand my ground there…’

With the help of the Martial Arts Panel, Xu Ning’s experience in the Arcanist World was a hundred times smoother than Duan Huiyao’s.

Every one of Duan Huiyao’s attempts was never as smooth as Xu Ning’s first attempt.

They rested for the night.

Xu Ning and Guan Yue regained their energy.

“Huh?”

When Guan Yue woke up and saw Xu Ning, she felt a little strange.

She could sense that Xu Ning was different from yesterday.

“Xu Ning…”

After Guan Yue called Xu Ning’s name, she realized that she had disrespected Xu Ning, so she quickly changed her word choice and said, “Brother Xu, you seem to have improved?”

Guan Yue knew that she was completely dependent on Xu Ning now. Their status was now different.

“I have advanced to a rank four arcanist.”

Xu Ning did not hide anything. 𝗳𝒓𝚎e𝚠𝒆𝐛𝐧𝐨v𝚎Ɩ.co𝓶

“Rank four arcanist?!”

Guan Yue’s pupils contracted, and she had a dazed expression.

A rank four arcanist was at the level of the Black Willow Institute Head.

Xu Ning looked so young, yet he had already advanced to this realm. It was terrifying.

‘Where did he come from? Why did he work as a servant previously?’

Questions swirled in Guan Yue’s mind, but in the end, she held back her curiousity and did not ask.
