Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation

“Haha, very good. This young fellow was discovered by me on the outside, and I found him quite extraordinary at first glance. Upon a closer look, he impressed even an old man like me. His foundation is extremely solid – he’s at least at the stage of True Qi Nine Refinements, or even possibly the tenth stage.”

Di Qing said with a smile, “The problem is, if this young man at this age already has such strength, and he also passes the Alchemist examination, that’s a bit terrifying.”

Even Deng He had been drawn over and after his gaze lingered on Lu Yun for a bit, he said with a complex look, “It’s beyond terrifying, he’s simply a monster.”

“Old Jiang, could this young man be a disciple from your Martial Academy who secretly came to join the Alchemist Alliance for fun?” Di Qing suddenly asked in a mysterious manner.

After reflecting for a good while, Jiang Wen finally said, “In our Martial Academy, there are currently only three outstanding individuals of this age: Bai Haoxuan, Lu Yun, and Xiao Chen. However, 1 believe none of them have reached the True Qi Nine Refinements or tenth stage yet.”

“Well that’s a coincidence, this young fellow’s name is also Lu Yun. Old Jiang, you don’t seem to pay much attention to the talents in your Martial Academy. This guy is blatantly right under your nose, yet you are clueless.” Di Qing said teasingly, a playful smile spreading across his faded face.

“Lu Yun?” Jiang Wen was momentarily stunned, then his face showed embarrassment as he laughed and cursed, “These youngsters are always so secretive. Usually in the Martial Academy, you barely see them.”

“Oh, please, find a better excuse. If I’m not mistaken, most of the time they’re either practicing or outside, and very rarely mingling with other students of the Martial Academy.”

“Old Man Deng is right, you Old Jiang are always so idle. Like this time, if it weren’t for the mandatory task, we might not even see you.”

Di Qing and Deng He, united in solidarity, criticized and revealed Jiang Wen’s casual disposition without reservation.

At this moment, Lu Yun was cleaning the residue inside the Alchemy Furnace and was unaware that he had been completely exposed to the three elders.

However, even if he knew about it, it wouldn’t matter. He didn’t intend to hide, otherwise, he wouldn’t have brazenly used his real name.

“I hope I’m not too late!”

Just then a lazy voice suddenly rang out in the hall, drawing nearly half of the attention.

It was a teenager dressed in white, appearing somewhat lackadaisical. His black hair was left untouched, hanging lazily around his back. His eyes, however, were incredibly clear, like the icy spring water on a snowy mountain, free of any impurities. His slightly handsome face was also adorned with a faint smile.

“You scoundrel, hurry up and take your place, the assessment is about to begin.” Deng He on the judging panel looked unusually angry, but the smile revealed in his eyes betrayed him completely.

“Alright, alright.”

With a slight bow of his hand, Deng Yunhui walked towards the compartment. As he passed by Di Ruoling’s compartment, he jovially said, “Sister Ruolin, it has been a while. You’ve grown even more beautiful.”

“Get lost, I don’t know you.” Di Ruoling waved her hand dismissively.

“Sister Ruolin, not only have you become more beautiful, but your heart has also become more ruthless. Now you even deny knowing me, how heartless.” Deng Yunhui continued to banter, with no intention to leave.

“The assessment begins now. Would all the candidates please enter the venue immediately. Otherwise, it will be regarded as an automatic withdrawal.” A faint voice came from the adjudication stand.

“Ha, if you dare, keep lingering around.” Di Ruoling blinked, openly challenging him.

“Hehe, I’ll take the opportunity to bother you again some other time.”

Deng Yunhui dashed into an unoccupied booth like a puff of smoke.

“The assessment begins now.”

As soon as the words had finished, a member of the staff flipped an hourglass and the sand began to flow.

The first thing Lu Yun did was scrutinize the pill recipe on the table.

To his surprise, this pill recipe was for Body Tempering Pill, which he had used before. This surprised him somewhat.

Holding the pill recipe for Body Tempering Pill, Lu Yun looked around at the other candidates. He noticed everyone around him had started to take action. However, judging by the spirit herbs they were choosing, not everyone’s pill recipes were the same.

Shaking his head slightly, Lu Yun then started to choose the spirit herbs according to the requirements of the pill recipe.

The spirit herbs before him were of a dozen kinds. Selecting the four materials needed to refine the Body Tempering Pili from these was the first test and also the simplest one.

After spending a good deal of time in the Book Collection Pavilion, Lu Yun had thoroughly memorized the characteristics and properties of various spirit grasses and spiritual fruits. Therefore, this first step did not pose a challenge to him.

As for the Body Tempering Pill, although he had yet to refine it, since his Alchemy Technique had reached the Second Level, he naturally wouldn’t find it too challenging.

So much so, that if he was now to refine a Second-Grade pill, he would officially become a Second-Grade Alchemist.

What hindered this progression step, was the pill recipe.

Putting aside his thoughts, Lu Yun concentrated his mind. In a flash, the pile of spirit herbs started to move and soon four types of spirit herbs landed stably on the table.

“This young fellow, he has such amazing control.” Lu Yun’s action immediately caught Di Qing’s attention.

If his control over True Qi wasn’t at a masterful level, he couldn’t possibly select the four spirit herbs he needed with such speed and precision from the multitude of other spirit herbs..
