Chương 88: War God’s : — Chapter 88 - You… Just Kiss Me Once. That Will Do

Under the moonlight. Chen Yuting's enchanting face was coated in moon frost. Whether from her talent or not, she looked both seductive and pure at once. Wang Xian thought to himself: As expected of you. Who can scheme like you?

"That Earth Abyss Demon Chi—you deliberately lured it up, didn't you?" Wang Xian said. Chen Yuting neither admitted nor denied it.

"You knew I hadn't left yet. Lure out the Earth Abyss Demon Chi, trap the candidates..." Wang Xian narrowed his eyes.

"Whether the patrol warriors could respond in time or not, I'd definitely come."

"You wanted to use that to make me agree to your talent trade from before."

"But that was only your first layer."

"If I refused and could handle the demon chi anyway, you'd use the fact that I saved your life to make me accept the talent power you're offering."

"So what are the conditions this time?"

"What conditions could I possibly have?" Chen Yuting lowered her head.

"You saved my life. I use my method to help you awaken martial talent. Isn't that perfectly reasonable?"

"Is one human life not worth one martial talent?" It is. Absolutely.

"Also..." Chen Yuting lifted her head again, those peach blossom eyes blinking.

"You don't want me owing you, right?" Wang Xian didn't answer.

"How do you plan to help me awaken martial talent?" Wang Xian asked. A flash of delight crossed Chen Yuting's eyes. The moon frost on her cheeks gained a few shades of blush.

"Very simple."

"You just... kiss me once. That's all."

"That thing inside my body can only be drawn out into yours through intimate contact." She gently bit her lip. Her peach blossom eyes were expectant yet hesitant, as if dampened by something.

"..." Wang Xian. Impressive. I bow to your skill. Compared to your methods, Ye Miyue is like a child just learning to walk. And yet... Wang Xian still shook his head. Chen Yuting froze.

"It's useless," Wang Xian said.

"What do you mean?"

"Any awakened talent will just vanish inside my body." Wang Xian's tone was flat.

"So sorry. I still have to refuse." He'd been curious about the New Martial Arts system, true. But after embarking on the Stellar Body Refinement Art, this self-created Old Martial Arts path, at least for now, he had no way of entering the New Martial Arts path through martial talent. His body contained an immensely vast reserve of Spirit Malevolence. This powerful energy would almost certainly devour a martial artist's talent power and alter it. For him, it wasn't just useless. It could cause problems.

There was an extremely small probability the talent power might mutate into something stronger. But even then, it would conflict with his divine meridians, creating two different power systems. Setting aside how low that probability was, even if it succeeded, future cultivation would be full of uncertainties. The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation. In his past life, he hadn't even cultivated the Stellar Body Refinement Art to its peak.

How could he suddenly change course to cultivate New Martial Arts now? And gamble on an extremely slim probability on top of that?

"Why?" Chen Yuting frowned.

"Is there something wrong with your body?" Wang Xian shook his head. Even in his past life, very few people knew what he cultivated. After all, cultivating by absorbing Spirit Malevolence was too much of a shock to Blue Star's current New Martial Arts system. It could even be said to defy common sense.

"You can keep it." Wang Xian looked at Chen Yuting. He knew that with her personality, she'd never give up easily.

"Perhaps one day in the future, I'll have use for it." Wang Xian gazed at the starry sky. Chen Yuting thought for a moment. The smile on her face suddenly grew even more enchanting.

"That works."

"Only..."

"Only what?"

"The longer it stays, the harder that thing becomes to extract from my body." Chen Yuting smiled.

"Right now, just a kiss is enough. But after some more time, it won't just be a kiss anymore..." Her smile bloomed like a flower. Perhaps due to the World-Toppling Demon Avatar at work, even the clothes on her body seemed to become transparent gauze. The moon frost traced another devastatingly alluring curve across her form like brushstrokes. Between her brows lay an enchanting charm that could overturn the world.

"Then what would it take?" Wang Xian remained unmoved, only frowning. Chen Yuting drew closer and softly breathed out two words:"Copulation."

"..." The seductive sound burrowed into his ear, enough to make countless men's blood surge.

"Hah." Wang Xian laughed once, turned around, and said flatly:"Next time, don't do something this stupid. In a place like Spider Heart Summit that even satellites can't detect, within the crevice where the Earth Abyss Demon Chi appeared, there's an extremely high probability that other military examiners were hidden on-site, supervising."

"Every move you made was being watched. If you hadn't genuinely protected those candidates, you might've been arrested on the spot." Chen Yuting was stunned, as if she hadn't considered this.

"But why didn't that examiner intervene..." she said, slightly puzzled.

"The true bonus question..." Wang Xian paused.

"Perhaps it wasn't just testing whether candidates could defeat the Earth Abyss Demon Chi. It was also testing whether, in a moment of danger, they wouldn't flee in fear but face the enemy head-on." This was something Wang Xian only deduced after receiving the battle merits. Because the battle merit reward from the military was far too generous for candidates. Lin Ao and He Yiming hadn't participated in the battle against the Earth Abyss Demon Chi, but they'd bravely taken that first step forward.

That meant they'd essentially passed a kind of trial to receive such generous rewards. Combined with the fact that Chief Zhao and Bai Hongtian arrived with extreme punctuality, clearly knowing everything about Spider Heart Summit despite having no real-time monitoring footage, the only possibility was that Spider Heart Summit itself had an examiner hidden there, secretly supervising. And one of no low realm either. At least fourth or fifth realm.

"Next time you try something like this, no matter how perfect your story is, the military might not believe it." Wang Xian walked away.

"Can I take this to mean you're concerned about me?" Chen Yuting's voice drifted over from behind.

"..." Wang Xian. Thicker-skinned than I am. After returning home: [Ye Miyue: What do you plan to do over summer break?] [Wang Xian: Play games] [Ye Miyue: Mm... Tiandu Jingwu said they want me to come over early...] [Wang Xian: Going early to become a disciple isn't bad. You have a taboo talent, so you're different from others. You need at least a sixth-realm or seventh-realm grandmaster to properly guide you. And Tiandu Jingwu's resources are different from Seventh High's.] [Ye Miyue: But I don't want to go...] [Wang Xian: Then what do you want to do? Play games with me?] [Ye Miyue: I don't know how...] [Wang Xian: Then come over tomorrow. I'll let you massage me once, as a reward for your bravery today.] [Ye Miyue: [Embarrassed/Angry] How is that a reward!] [Wang Xian: Then how about I massage you? As a reward?] [Ye Miyue: No...] [Wang Xian: Not this, not that. How about I give you your favorite—a big slap on the ear. jpg] [Ye Miyue:... Wang Xian, will you really choose Tiandu Jingwu University?] [Wang Xian: Definitely. Listen to me. You go first. I'll come in 2 months.] [Ye Miyue: Okay!] [Wang Xian: Oh, and before you leave, find a time to fulfill that promise.] [Wang Xian: You don't want to become someone who goes back on their word, right?] [Ye Miyue:......] In truth, if Ye Miyue could go to Tiandu Jingwu University to train earlier, that was certainly a good thing. After all, she had a taboo talent. Tiandu Jingwu had the absolute resources and conditions to ensure Ye Miyue's cultivation.

Someone like her would definitely be listed by the nation as a key support target, cultivated as a 'future Martial God seed.' Choose a good master at university, and her future would be bright. It was just that losing 2 months of rest time was a bit unfair to her. With a teacher, Ye Miyue would have a detailed cultivation plan. There'd be no issue of overtraining or anything like that. She could also exchange daily cultivation insights with him via phone.

With him remotely overseeing things, nothing could possibly go wrong. As for himself:"Summer break goal: finish mastering the Tiger Soul Blade Technique, open the 12 regular meridians, then refine the divine meridians."

"Then solo queue more in Martial Arts Endless and practice the 'Defensive Arts' secret skill with martial warriors from all across the land."

"By university enrollment, at least half of the 12 regular meridians converted into divine meridians. Life force reaching over 500."

"That way, I'll have a chance to access that lost spear technique lineage's advanced spear technique at Tiandu Jingwu."

"Also, the Northern Tibetan Ruins upheaval now, less than a year remains, right..."

"I need to find time to thoroughly investigate that..." Wang Xian's cultivation plan was fairly reasonable. Over summer break, he'd balance work and rest. He really did intend to stay home and play games, directly entering Martial Arts Endless to hone his secret skills and practice blade techniques. The next day, Wang Xian arrived at the Rong City Military Battle Affairs District and exchanged for the Tiger Sha Blade Technique. ➤ Next: Fusion! Mastering the Tiger Malevolence Blade! 1667 Points!
