Su Chen recalls how Lin Lanxin sacrificed greatly for him, deceiving admissions and using her own funds to ensure he could attend university with her. He regrets his past indifference and resolves to protect her in this life, focusing on the impending threat posed by Xu Ming, the man responsible for Lin Lanxin's death in his previous life.

Yet, Lanxin rejected him without a second thought.

How could Young Master Xu, a scion from a prominent and influential family, ever have faced such an outright refusal?

Especially with so many witnesses, where could his pride possibly be salvaged?

In a fit of rage, he summoned over a dozen bodyguards from the Xu family, intending to forcibly abduct Lanxin, his audacity truly beyond belief.

Naturally, Lanxin had to escape; the thought of what Xu Ming might do if he captured her filled her with dread.

However, in her haste, anxiety, and sheer terror, she misstepped on the stairs and took a terrible tumble.

She was rendered unconscious immediately, her head and face gushing with fresh blood.

At that moment, Lanxin was not actually deceased; had she received timely medical attention, she absolutely could have been saved.

But alas.

Chillingly, not only did Xu Ming remain unmoved, cruelly watching Lanxin transition from critical injury to death's door.

Even more appallingly, among the many guests at the birthday celebration, some of whom were Lanxin’s own acquaintances, they too were too intimidated by Xu Ming to intervene, resulting in not a single emergency call being placed.

Lanxin perished just like that, succumbing to massive blood loss!!!

She died right before everyone’s very eyes.

“Back then, the birthday party was packed with people!

If even a single soul had offered Lanxin aid, she wouldn’t have met her end…” Su Chen gritted his teeth, his heart aching with every recollection.

He struggled to comprehend the utter despair Lanxin must have experienced, lying helpless on the floor, bleeding out without any assistance.

A fierce and unyielding glint entered Su Chen’s eyes.

He harbored profound self-loathing, intense hatred for Xu Ming, and a bone-deep animosity towards every single person present at that party, even everyone within that grand hall.

After a period of intense reflection, he managed to regain a semblance of composure.

It was now eleven-fifteen, mere minutes remaining until the conclusion of the last class.

Once the lecture ended, he was obligated to accompany Lanxin to the birthday festivities.

Therefore, he absolutely had to locate the Qi Sensation swiftly.

Only by achieving Qi Sensation would he officially join the ranks of martial cultivators, and only then would he possess the might to avert such tragedies, to personally exact retribution upon his foes.

This world is undeniably not a common realm, far from the reality perceived by ordinary individuals.

It is a world inhabited by martial cultivators.

Potent martial cultivators can sunder mountains and rivers with a mere gesture, possessing unfathomable might; the pronouncements of a formidable martial cultivator can seal the fate of countless lives.

Even relying on the memories from his prior existence, he was acutely aware that the true magnates and power brokers within China were backed by formidable martial cultivators or established martial arts lineages.

“Only by ascending to the status of a powerful martial cultivator can one safeguard their loved ones; only a potent martial cultivator will never be subjected to bullying!” Su Chen couldn’t help but lament.

And what serves as the hallmark of a martial cultivator?

Qi Sensation!

Precisely, Qi Sensation!

Considering the scarcity of spiritual Qi in contemporary China, for an average person to attain Qi Sensation is akin to hitting the jackpot, an occurrence rarer than winning any lottery – this is why commoners remain blissfully unaware of martial cultivators and their influential families.

However, for Su Chen, the quest for Qi Sensation presents no insurmountable challenge.

Firstly, in his former life, he achieved the Grandmaster Realm of Mysterious Qi in one continuous cultivation push, establishing himself as one of China’s most formidable martial cultivators, already endowed with vast experience in martial cultivation.

Secondly, he possessed a supreme cultivation technique—the 'Heaven Earth Secret Art'!!!

A cultivation methodology that defied conventional understanding!

In his previous incarnation, it was through an extraordinary twist of fate that he obtained this heaven-defying technique.

Regrettably, he found himself unable to cultivate this art in his past life, as the prerequisite demanded absolute commitment—in other words, he would have been compelled to annihilate his own Mysterious Qi and all other cultivated advancements, reverting himself to the status of an ordinary mortal, and commencing anew.

Upon acquiring the 'Heaven Earth Secret Art,' he had already reached the Grandmaster Realm of Mysterious Qi, standing at the absolute zenith of China's martial arts world.

How could he possibly forsake everything he had achieved and start from scratch at such a juncture?

“But in this new life, everything has been reset, allowing me to cultivate the 'Heaven Earth Secret Art'!” Su Chen’s lips curved into a faint smile, his heart brimming with eager expectation.

The existence of the 'Heaven Earth Secret Art' represented his most significant hidden advantage and the bedrock of his confidence.

With the 'Heaven Earth Secret Art' at his disposal, he would not only easily achieve Qi Sensation, but his martial cultivation progress would also be astonishingly swift, far surpassing the pace of his prior life.

“Then, let’s begin!” In the next instant, Su Chen shut his eyes, and the cultivation path of the “Heaven Earth Secret Art” unfurled within his mind, stirring his thoughts.

The “Heaven Earth Secret Art” is comprised of Nine Layers, each corresponding to a unique meridian circulation chart, totaling nine such pathways.

He focused his entire being, adhering to the Qi Meridian Induction route of the first chart from the “Heaven Earth Secret Art,” attempting to draw in the world's Spiritual Energy.

Moments turned into minutes.

Approximately ten minutes elapsed.

Suddenly.

Su Chen’s body gave a slight tremor.

In just ten minutes, he sensed the Spiritual Energy and achieved Qi Sensation.

“At this juncture, one must remain calm; the key is to gently guide the Spiritual Energy into the body and accomplish a single circulation within the Meridians!” After all, he was a profoundly powerful Grandmaster Level martial artist reborn into a new life, abundant in experience.

Should an ordinary individual experience the sensation of Spiritual Energy at this point, they would likely be overcome with shock, losing all composure, or erupt in unbridled excitement.

However, Su Chen’s elation was fleeting, quickly replaced by an even more profound seriousness.

He was acutely aware that after the initial discovery of Qi Sensation and its introduction into the body, the utmost priority was to seize the opportune moment and ensure the energy completed one full circulation through the Meridians.

This deliberate action would prove immensely advantageous for his future journey in martial arts Cultivation.

Time continued its relentless march.

Five minutes later, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, releasing a breath of stale air, a triumphant smile gracing his features.

He had succeeded!

He had flawlessly executed the crucial steps: achieving Qi Sensation, guiding Qi into his body, and circulating it once through the Meridians.

He was now, undeniably, a true Martial Cultivator.

Without a second’s delay, Su Chen lifted his hand, gripping the surface of the iron desk with his index and middle fingers, applying significant pressure.

Then, he released his grip, and it was clearly visible that upon the desk’s surface, nearly two millimeters thick, a distinct imprint of his fingers remained.

“What astonishing strength, reaching the Basic Entry Level and already possessing approximately 1500 Jin (around 1653 pounds or 750 kilograms) of raw physical power!” Su Chen’s eyes blazed with delight, profoundly pleased.

“The ‘Heaven Earth Secret Art’ is even more formidable than I had anticipated!” Among different Martial Cultivators, even those within the same Cultivation realm can exhibit varying degrees of strength, influenced by the specific cultivation methods they practice.

Su Chen distinctly recalled that in his previous existence, as a beginner-level Martial Cultivator, his initial strength was merely around 400 Jin, which was already considered exceptionally formidable.

It is important to note that a typical Martial Cultivator’s starting strength hovers around 200 Jin, with very few managing to attain 400 Jin.

To reach 1500 Jin at this stage was simply beyond comprehension.

In the very next moment, “Ring, ring, ring…” the bell signaling the conclusion of the final class echoed through the air.
