Su Ru left with her sweetwith her The whole East Garden began to lose its color from her absence Chu Li felt depressed
He picked up the two seeds and used his aura gently to accelerate the growth It will now sprout and grow incredibly quick as soon as he plants it It will then break out of the soil and present its green sprouts within two days
Chu Li soon discovered that this batch was exceptionally long Their speed of growth is much faster than the usual rate; at least double the rate A month has been shortened to ten days, and ten days shortened to a blink of an eye
A white fog, thin as silk had engulfed the huge lake Almost like a dream
Su Ru then appeared with a pleasant aroracefully stood in front of the Moonlight Orchid parterre She smiled and looked at Chu Li
”My, have you completed the task?”
Chu Li pointed towards the six jade boxes on the stone table
”That's rather fast Why is that so?” Su Ru asked
”Practice makes one perfect, I suppose” Chu Li replied
”The appeal on being rank six conjures a strong determination within me I would even risk my life for it”
”Attaining a rank six is indeed worth the fight For now, proceed to theinformation that awaits you”
Su Ru said
”Understood” Chu Li nodded and smiled
The fourth floor of the Tower of Wisdom is called the 'floor of the unique scripture' Stored within it are treasured book that has been daainst the eleotten secrets that are written in unique characters where average folks are not able to decipher them
”Chief, may I enter the Hall of Martial Arts?”
”The Hall?” Su Ru was startled by the sudden request
”You still haven't not given up on martial arts?”
Chu Li smiled
”You may, obviously You are rank six after all, therefore, you are entitled to even obtain the finest of all skill manuals”
”However, you'll still need to build a strong foundation for achieving the higher level arts” Su Ru said, regrettably
In co the martial arts or to acquire a new skill It is alebra is learned If you lack the foundation foradvanced books on the subject would only serve to confuse you It would feel as if you are entering a hold different dimension just to proceed
”There's always another way, isn't there?”
”Uh…some of the manuscripts are better left untouched for your current level”
”Well, you have now peaked my curiosity”
”The rank systeenerally used in the Public House Once you achieve rank six, you iven access to the Scripture of God's Boundary The manual is indeed important, but you cannot be trained without sufficient sources”
Chu Li nodded

”Chu Li, I believe you are a clever a person You don't need excessive advice from me, but I feel the need to warn you Do not train without co your foundation!”
”Much appreciated, Chief”
Su Ru sighed ”…oh Chu Li” Su Ru smiled and shook her head; she felt as if Chu Li would not heed her advice
The Hall of Martial Arts is a tower made of pure bronze
The training field is round is red from the soil's unique properties Hundreds of people are seen training over it, giving the area a lively and crowded atmosphere
Chu Li had come to the hall alone as Lee Yue orried about the safety of the Moonlight Orchids He chose to stay on the island to care for them as a precautionary step
As he approached the ate of the hall, a sandalwood divider blocked the way Two gorgeous wooere behind it They welcomed him in a demurred manner
Chu Li proceeded to present his waist tag The ladies were taken aback as it was rare to see soe They then in return gave him a bronze medal
Upon inspection, Chu Li could see that the medal had the emblem of four white clouds
The two ladies guided him to the upper quarters in a polite fashi+on
Soon enough Chu Li reached the highest floor; the fourth floor He wasin front of the entryway They glanced at Chu Li's waist tag as he passed by
The two protectors were a rank nine
Chu Li considered this as a checkpoint No one dares to break through this place even if the perpetrators were two ranked nine Scribes If you were caught, the individual would forever be denied access inside the tower
The fourth floor had a cold and quiet atmosphere
There were e collection of books neatly arranged on their shelves Unlike the lower floors that were filled with books, the fourth floor had only five large shelves containing about a hundred books each
The books here are not allowed to be taken out of the floor Copying down content from the books are also prohibited in the library The only choice is to otten The second and third floors are always crohile the fourth floor is usually occupied with only five people in it, creating a fitting atmosphere for the library
Chu Li then looked through all the manuals from a shelf All of them were either about passive abilities or martial arts from the Scripture of God's Boundary
He went through every single page as he read Within a day, he had memorized half the books frole detail of the manuals within five days
He returned the last ood stretch When he had stepped out of the library, Chu Li had learned every single book frohest floor He wished to return to decide what to practice later on
He then left the hall and walked through the field Suddenly he was stopped halfway to his destination
Zhuo Feiyang earing a long blue shi+rt sneered at Chu Li Standing beside hi at them
Chu Li appeared worried He looked at Zhuo Feiyang
”What are you doing here, you scu scoffed
Chu Li paid no heed He gave hilance and continued to walk
Zhuo Feiyang had h rank seven with confidence He can now surely take his revenge on him
”Chu Li! Aren't you incredibly scared!?” Zhuo Feiyang said
”I am scared!” said Chu Li with a nod
”I'm scared of such a shameful person I may not be able to defeat you, but I can still avoid you!”
”One more match!”
”Don't think too highly of yourself You arethat can't even practice the martial arts!”
”Do you think I would actually fight you just from your whims?”
He shook his head
”Zhuo Feiyang, if you have this o horade your ienius”
Zhuo Feiyang's face turned absolutely sour He clenched his teeth, knowing that he would lose to Chu Li in a verbal fight He would have to force Chu Li to surrender He grabbed the pole of a banner and threw it towards him
”Catch!”
The pole acted like a weapon as it traveled fast directly to Chu Li
Chu Li caught it with his hand He smiled and shook his head
