Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

So the reason for refusing the battle was here.

Xu Jin didn’t reply to the message about the one hundred taels of Silver, and he didn’t issue any more challenges either.

They had fought a total of six matches, with two wins and four losses.

The proportion of defeats was relatively high.

In each match, both sides were continuously adjusting their tactics. Relatively speaking, Xu Jin’s chances of losing were greater.

”If my strength could further improve, then my chances of winning would slowly increase.”

”After eight consecutive battles in the Martial Arts Secret Realm, is this the limit of Divine Soul Power for a top-tier genius?”

The ’No Big Deal’ Starlight Transmission incidentally revealed a lot of information.

Eight times, that’s quite a lot.

Before Xu Jin had the engraving of the Clear Soul Star Pattern, he could only do it five times; after initially engraving it, six times; after thoroughly consolidating it, he could challenge up to eight times. Now, with his Divine Soul Star Casting, he had never tried to reach the limit.

But compared to the top geniuses of Jinshan Taoist Institute, there was still a gap.

Lu Xianbing could challenge consecutively five times in the Martial Arts Secret Realm and claimed he could barely manage six times, but after six, he would suffer from splitting headaches.

And this year’s Star Pointing champion, Yue Daqi, could challenge six times consecutively in the Martial Arts Secret Realm.

One more time equates to an increase in Divine Soul Power by fifteen to twenty percent.

Is this the difference between the Jinshan Taoist Institute’s geniuses and the top geniuses of other forces?

Of course, that’s assuming ’No Big Deal’ truly reached his limit.

On July 19th, Xu Jin decided to return to his home to live.

It was too much of a disturbance.

Ever since becoming the chief big brother of the Taoist Institute for half a day, visitors came to his door in an endless stream, especially at night, which made Qi anxious.

There were those seeking to build relationships, those who came to ask for guidance from the big brother, and those who wanted to reserve Xu Jin as a mountain-picking companion.

One after another, they came smiling, often bringing some gifts.

As the saying goes, ”One does not slap a smiling face,” which made it hard for Xu Jin to turn them away.

Even if he didn’t open the door, just the knocking would disturb his Cultivation or rest.

Xu Jin also made a point to inform Ning Yuchan.

The location of the house he bought was quite good, only a ten-minute walk away, or one to two minutes if he hurried.

Ning Yuchan consented, but specifically instructed Xu Jin to visit her the next morning.

Having told Ning Yuchan, it was natural to inform Qi Shanye too.

At night, the place where Qi Shanye gave guidance to Xu Jin turned into Xu Mansion.

”The Star Skill you mentioned is probably the effect of the Cangming Star Hall’s Secret Star Patterns Hooking Mystic Star Pattern. As for the Star Skill, it’s the Star Burst Technique, a variation of Star Arrow.” When Xu Jin spoke about the battles in the Martial Arts Secret Realm that evening, Qi Shanye immediately had his judgment.

”What you encountered must be a True Disciple of Cangming Star Hall. These unique Secret Star Patterns are only taught to True Disciples, to top-tier geniuses.

According to what you’ve described, that person is likely to have achieved a Purity Body and reached the Peak of Seventh Layer of Dining Dawn.

Managing to secure two victories under conditions where your Cultivation Level is inferior to his, means you haven’t disgraced your teacher,” Qi Shanye said with a laugh.

”Teacher, are the Cangming Star Hall’s Secret Star Patterns really that powerful? Why do I feel like the Lingji Star Hall’s Secret Star Pattern Mingji is a bit weak?” Xu Jin asked.

Hearing this, Qi Shanye glared, ”Who said that!

The Mingji Star Pattern is an auxiliary Star Pattern; its effectiveness increases significantly in the Late Period.

Moreover, the Mingji Star Pattern is auxiliary. After you complete Star Casting, there will be another unique Secret Star Pattern from Lingji Star Hall that will greatly enhance your Combat Power,” Qi Shanye said.
