C17 Getting Beaten up

Qin Hao sat in the audience quietly. Elemental energy flowed out of his dantian continuously, nourishing all the cells in his body.

He was more familiar with controlling elemental energy. As long as he wanted to, he could instantly circulate his elemental energy to any part of his body and use it to fight.

His foundation was very solid, but it was also very important to use elemental energy in battle.

After resting for an hour, he continued on stage.

After that, what he encountered were all ordinary characters. They were usually dealt with in two or three moves, clean and quick, without the slightest bit of sloppiness. They seemed to have the demeanor of a great family.

After the consumption and regeneration of the essence energy within his body, his cultivation vaguely increased by quite a bit.

Very quickly, Qin Hao already obtained ten consecutive victories and obtained the qualifications to enter the monthly championship. At the same time, he received the support of many spectators, and his cheers were especially high.

In the private room, Suen Bufaan was very happy.

As long as Qin Hao competed, he would place his bets every time, and it would be ten thousand gold coins. In just half a day, when he went out to draw money, he had earned more than sixty thousand gold coins.

In the past few years, he had lost more than 100,000 gold coins in Battle Arena. After knowing Qin Hao, not only did he return all his money in just two days, he had also earned tens of thousands more gold coins.

He believed that if this continued, Battle Arena would go bankrupt sooner or later.

The premise was that Qin Hao could keep winning.

Now that he had so many gold coins, he would be able to purchase some supplementary herbs for cultivation when he returned. He wanted to break through to the next realm first. He had been in the Late Period of the Martial Disciple Stage realm for two years.

In the accounting room of Battle Arena, a smile appeared on Jiang Mingkun's face, "Kid, you should be proud of yourself for a few more days. When the competition for the championship begins, it will be the day of your death!"

On the Xuan paper on the table, Hao Ran wrote a big "die" word in red ink.

"Young Master, ever since this Qin Hao appeared, Battle Arena has been losing money." Old Zhang was a little nervous. He showed Jiang Mingkun the recent accounts.

"It's okay. It's just some gold coins, isn't it?" Jiang Mingkun did not mind at all. He said casually, "Soon. When I get that girl, I will be able to become a martial master. When that time comes, how much will it cost?"

"Young Master is right." Old Zhang agreed.

...

After receiving the ten consecutive victories, Qin Hao was invited by Suen Bufaan to the private room to watch the battle. The two of them exchanged some pleasantries and confirmed the situation.

After that, Qin Hao slowly understood what was going on.

The Tianmo City was very stable on the surface, but there were internal conflicts in the interior. They fought each other while they were down. A few families had fought in private, but with the Prefecture and General's Mansion keeping an eye on it, it didn't cause too much trouble.

They had to take care of the reputation of the Tianxuan Country.

The conflicts in any city would end with the intervention of the Tianxuan Country's officials.

It had been more than ten years since the Tianmo City had become the sole power of the three major families. Furthermore, there had been a strong sense of unrest recently. The Prefecture and General's Mansion were like fire and water, both wanting to pull each other off their horses.

After learning about this, Qin Hao realized that this world wasn't peaceful at all.

They watched the battle and chatted idly. Suen Bufaan had a wide range of knowledge, and he gave Qin Hao a lot of knowledge that Qin Hao did not know about before.

However, the chaos in Tianmo City didn't have much to do with him, because he was going to leave soon.

The sky was about to turn dark, and Qin Hao took his leave. Suen Bufaan, on the other hand, was forthright and gave him another ten thousand gold coins. In the end, he could not refuse, so he accepted it. After all, he had helped Suen Bufaan win another eighty thousand gold coins after an afternoon of analysis of the battle situation.

Thinking about it, Suen Bufaan had earned more than a hundred thousand gold coins through him today.

Qin Hao returned to his room. He had felt a lot through the battle and watching the battle.

He carefully replayed the battle for a few days, looking for a way to defeat the enemy, and then simulated it. This process took roughly two hours.

Then, he began to cultivate.

In these few days of competition, his essence energy had been depleted and restored. There was actually a certain growth. He wanted to give it a try and see if he could break through his current realm before the competition.

But unfortunately, breaking through realms was not that easy.

If an ordinary martial artist wanted to break through to the next realm, they might need several months or even years of hard work. As for Qin Hao, from the moment he awakened, he had been at the intermediate Martial Disciple realm for more than ten days. Now, he even wanted to break through to the Late Period of the Martial Disciple Stage realm, so he was a little anxious.

One night later.

"He still hasn't broken through?" Qin Hao muttered.

"It takes a long time to break through to the next realm. Once I understand it, I will naturally be able to break through." At this moment, Yun Heng came out to explain, "If you want to break through forcefully like this, you have already fallen behind."

"So that's how it is." Qin Hao nodded.

He knew he was in too much of a hurry.

"Cultivation mainly focuses on the cultivation of the heart. If the heart is not pure, it will be very difficult to break through to the next realm. Maintaining a pure heart is very important. Remember, don't lose your mind. Everything is up to fate." Yun Heng added.

"Often it is the breakthrough of one's state of mind, leading to the breakthrough of one's realm."

"As long as one can comprehend it, a breakthrough in one's realm will only happen naturally. It's nothing more than absorbing and refining some energy. Your current state of mind isn't enough. No matter how much energy you are given, it will be difficult for you to break through. Instead, you might go berserk."

Yun Heng was a reliable senior. He had a lot of experience in cultivation. Moreover, he was a martial artist with a high realm before this. He was very knowledgeable and had a lot of experience in cultivation.

With him guiding Qin Hao, he immediately walked out of the corner of the bull's horn.

"I was too anxious." Qin Hao kept these words in his heart. These were all cultivation experiences that were hard to buy with a thousand gold coins.

"Your movement technique is barely at the beginner level, but your fighting technique is a lot worse. Today, I will help you train." Yun Heng said, "I will mainly train your ability to resist attacks and adapt to the situation."

Qin Hao was helpless. He rolled his eyes. "To put it bluntly, you are just taking a beating?"

"That's right." Yun Heng nodded. "If you want to kill an enemy, you need to be able to take a beating first. Otherwise, he will slap you to death. How can we talk about the follow-up?"

"That's true. I just hope you don't go too far." Qin Hao felt a chill all over his body. He had a bad feeling about this.

"It's just normal training. Don't make a big deal out of it." Yun Heng smiled. "Not everyone has the chance to be guided by me every day."

"You win."

...

Qin Hao went outside the city and chose a rugged area as a training ground.

There were stones of different shapes and sizes on the ground. They were sharp and bumpy. There were weeds growing between the stones. It seemed a little desolate.

"Mm, it's been a long time since I've seen the sun. This feeling is really good." Yun Heng appeared. He was an illusory spirit body.

"Is it okay for you to appear like this?" Qin Hao asked. He was referring to whether anyone would discover Yun Heng.

"Don't worry."

Yun Heng patted his chest and promised, "In this world, if I don't want to, no one will find me in this world. You don't have to worry about that. You should worry about yourself. The training that I arranged is not something that everyone can handle."

Alright, let's begin. " Qin Hao was completely prepared.

Yun Heng was very mysterious. Previously, he was very powerful, but now, he only had a remnant soul left. However, his experience was not something Qin Hao could compare with. Therefore, Qin Hao had no doubts about training.

"There is a way of training in the world of martial artists. It is called body tempering."

Yun Heng was not in a hurry to train. Instead, he explained. "And these kinds of people have powerful physiques. When they cultivate to a high level, they are invulnerable to swords and spears, and are immune to all evil. When martial artists at the same level make progress, the ones who will win will be them."

"But the breakthrough in the body refinement method has to endure tremendous pain every time."

"Correspondingly, the benefits after breaking through are also obvious."

"During the day, you use stones to practice your beating, training your reaction. At night, I will brew a recovery potion for you to prevent internal injuries from affecting your future cultivation."

Yun Heng nodded and said, "You can start now."
