Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 304 - 72: Spear Grandmaster

"The stronger the power, the greater the responsibility. Although the prodigies from first- and second-tier provinces enjoy resources far beyond those of martial arts students from third- and fourth-tier provinces, the pressure they face is unimaginable. Not only must they confront more formidable alien demon beasts, but they also battle some extraterrestrial creatures. The probability of their growth is less than half, with many incredibly talented martial arts students falling in numerous battles, even during examinations.

While Jiangbei Province is resource-poor, the pressure it faces mainly comes from the ocean, the Great Radiation Zone, and the Profound Realm. In contrast, first- and second-tier provinces face danger from the scrutiny of the entire alien race’s powerful beings.

Each hard-earned prodigy is a target for elimination by alien race powerhouses; the pressure and circumstances they face are beyond ordinary comprehension.

Therefore, not every aspect of their situation is enviable."

Guo Wei explained.

"What you say makes sense. How about we skip the national exam? I’ll just return to South City and watch over my little plot of land."

Ling Feng deeply agreed.

As someone who constantly practices the principle of coasting along, evidently, he is not suited to risk more dangers.

He initially thought that first- and second-tier provinces not only have abundant resources but also safety guarantees. Unexpectedly, the survival pressure they face seems more severe than that of the martial arts students in South City.

"Hmm?"

Guo Wei was stunned, immediately looking angrily at Ling Feng.

"Haha, I was just saying that casually."

Ling Feng responded with a cheeky grin. He knew that in the rules set by the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance, enjoying more cultivation resource subsidies meant higher responsibilities, and there was no escape.

"In the previous national exams, martial arts students who advanced to the third round had at least reached the Dirt Realm. As for this year, as far as I know, the relationship between aliens and humans is relatively harmonious. Humanity can reproduce and thrive, and many martial arts students with extraordinary talent have emerged. So I estimate that to enter the third round, the martial arts student must at least reach the Vitality Realm.

However, for many years, no martial arts student from Jiangbei Province has ever advanced to the second round. The King of North of the River does not have high expectations for you; you only need to advance to the second round to create a miracle.

According to your current strength, there is already a good chance. So in these last dozen days, I will do everything I can to help you consolidate your Spear Intent Power, allowing your spear technique and the Power of Heaven and Earth to have a better convergence point."

Guo Wei continued.

"Alright."

Ling Feng nodded.

"Now, come with me and demonstrate the Basic Spear Skill Thirteen Forms a few times, feel the changes in the Power of Heaven and Earth together with me. I will teach you how to apply that force more easily until your spear intent becomes solid and powerful, as solid as fortresses."

Guo Wei said as he began to wield the black long spear, performing a Cyan Dragon Emerges from Water Linked Spear, stabbing forward.

"Alright."

Ling Feng nodded, following Guo Wei to demonstrate the Basic Spear Skill Thirteen Forms. He had long mastered this spear technique, fully integrating it into his physical memory, and performed it flawlessly, with spear momentum advancing layer by layer.

Their cooperation was very perfect.

Guo Wei was also very satisfied. But just at the moment he released spear intent, sweeping the Power of Heaven and Earth, leading Ling Feng to erupt together in strength, Ling Feng suddenly lost rhythm, stopped his motions, and went aside to drink water.

(I’ll post a long Chapter later; I will not delay. The national exam is about to start! Just seeing many readers leaving messages, saying I’ve been too fast-paced recently, there’s a risk of combat power collapsing. It won’t actually happen. Ling Feng is still quite a distance behind the geniuses from the first- and second-tier provinces. I don’t feel the pace is fast, it’s even a bit slow. ps This part is free of charge.)
