94 Ancient Tomb (2/2)

Happy smiled, already making calculations in his heart. There was still more than half a month before the first stage of the banditry disaster would come to an end. During that period of time, he wanted to train in Yangzhou and push his qi realm to Blessed Realm so that he could learn his first high-tier martial art—Flowering Knights' Song.

'Blessed Realm…'

People's qi would be refined to an exquisite degree by that time, which was why only those who reached that realm had the right to learn the lowest grade high-tier martial arts. It was also why only then would they truly have the right to wander around the lands and gain a footing in the world of martial artists. Otherwise, they were bound to only be passersby.

Just like Happy.

Even though his current strength was great, there was still quite a distance between him and true powerful players in Blessed Realm.

If Orochimaru's Reverse Dual Swordplay had been higher in level, it would have been impossible for Happy to win against him using the advantage of his experience in various areas. It would also have been impossible for him to become the champion of the offline martial arts tournament and obtain the high-tier martial art—Flowering Knights' Song.

Happy knew that since the game had been launched for two months and he only joined one month after it was launched as well as the fact that he had been held up with feeding rabbits for a period of time at the start, he was destined to suffer from a disparity in strength against the strongest batch of players in the game!

If he wanted to make a name for himself in the storyline quest and reap benefits from it, it would not be enough to rely on just his abilities in Gate Realm and a few throwing knives.

Not only did he need to increase his qi realm, he also needed to have a high-tier martial art with a rather high realm.

Until then, his qi had increased to 65.89.

He only needed to push Flashing Sword Breaker and a few other ninth realm or tenth realm martial arts into Grandmaster Realm, and it would be more than enough to fulfill the qi requirements to reach Blessed Realm.

However, the hardest task was to actually level up high-tier martial arts.

Practicing high-tier martial arts was different from practicing low-tier martial arts.

There were plenty of things that could be used as target practice for low-tier martial arts. The players could begin with practicing on wooden dummies during the first realm, then move to some normal wild beasts, and when their martial arts reached the fifth realm, they could aim for Gate Realm NPCs. Later on, when they reached the peak of Gate Realm, they had even more choices and targets to choose from.

However, it was completely different for high-tier martial arts!

The skills of high-tier martial arts were developed from low-tier martial arts in Grandmaster Realm. It meant that they received an upgrade, and every single skill and technique in high-tier martial arts were the pinnacle of perfection of each skill and technique for their respective low-tier martial arts.

It was impossible for Happy to increase the level of high-tier martial arts if he went up against normal opponents!

If he considered his targets based on their qi realms, then he had to choose targets in Blessed Realm, because he could not gain any experience from enemies below it and the level of his martial arts would not increase then! Only when he chose opponents who were in or above Blessed Realm would the level of his high-tier martial art increase.

Once Happy realized that there was an ancient tomb outside Yangzhou City, he was immediately tempted.

The fever for stealing tributes grew stronger every day. He believed that most powerful Blessed Realm players would join in, and they would neglect training during this period of time. If he went to train right then, he would probably find all the good training grounds empty of people.

When Happy was about to leave, the built man frowned, and in the end, he could not help but say, ”If you really want to practice your martial arts, then come with me.”

Happy stopped and turned around to look at the stall owner.

”Huh?”

”I've been practicing my martial arts in the ancient tomb. If you really want to go, we can form a party. You can wait for me to sell these items and buy some medicinal tablets to restore qi before we head there.”

The man had a good eye for judging people. He had been able to tell that Happy did not want to go there to farm beneficial items, but to train.

”Alright. I'll wait for you over there.”

Happy could already be considered as a very experienced person who was as cunning as a fox. He knew that it was very difficult to practice high-tier martial arts in their initial stages. A lot of time will have to be spent using recovery items, so he nodded and agreed to the deal.

When he saw that Happy had indirectly acknowledged that he did indeed have the goal of practicing his martial arts, a hint of joy that was rarely seen on him showed up on the built man's face. Once they exchanged a knowing look, the man decided to put away his stall. ”You're even more impatient than I am. Then, I won't be wasting your time. Come. Quite a number of my party members have left my party, so I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find anyone to train with me.”
