I Have A Martial Arts Panel

With the Black Armored Guards conducting more in-depth investigations into the city, another group of secret Magic Faction warriors had been arrested and interrogated.

During the interrogations, the spy who was responsible for the recruitment of Magic Faction warriors was dug out. Two Black Armored Guards who had escaped surveillance were also found.

These operations eliminated a lot of potential risks in the city.

Among them, most of the Magic Faction warriors who were discovered were executed immediately after being interrogated tortuously.

There were also Magic Faction warriors in Camp Site Three who were about to be sentenced.

Inside Camp Site Three, Execution Room.

Several Magic Faction warriors were gathered together in the room.

As Magic Faction warriors, once they were arrested, their meridians would be destroyed.

After undergoing severe interrogation, they would be crippled and could barely move.

But even so, their legs and hands were still shackled, making it almost impossible to move.

Outside the Execution Room, footsteps were heard.

Tao Jin walked into the Execution Room.

With her was another young woman.

This woman was named Tan Chang, born in the Tan Village. Besides Tan Fengying, she was Tan Village’s most outstanding descendant.

She had friction with Tao Jin in the past. When they first entered the camp, Tao Jin and Tan Chang fought against each other in the dining hall.

But now that they have been in the camp for more than four months, everyone’s tempers had calmed down.

In addition, now that a war was about to come, the two became partners in the camp, training together every day, squashing their previous beef.

Today, the two of them were dispatched here to execute these Magic Faction warriors.

After walking to the Execution Room, Tan Chang’s face looked unnatural when she saw the terrified Magic Faction warriors.

Although her martial arts strength was good, she had never killed an enemy in actual combat.

Tao Jin’s mental state was better than Tan Chang’s. She looked at the Magic Faction warriors up and down. f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

She had previously read their files. Most of these Magic Faction warriors were ordinary people.

Only after being coerced, or threatened, did they begin to practice magic techniques.

But even so, in order to improve their magic techniques, some of them secretly killed people, so they were more than guilty.

“What should we do?”

Tan Chang looked at Tao Jin. She was slightly hesitant.

Tao Jin was decisive, she picked up the execution machete and said, “I asked my colleagues who’ve performed executions. They just told me to swing the knife swiftly.”

The newcomers in Camp Site Three were taking turns with the executions. The purpose of this was to train the newcomers to not to be afraid in real combat.

“But…”

Tan Chang was obviously still hesitant.

However, Tao Jin was quick to act, she lifted the knife and beheaded one of the Magic Faction warriors.

Blood splashed all over Tao Jin’s body.

After seeing the tragic situation of his companion, the other Magic Faction warriors began to scream and scramble.

But Tao Jin didn’t feel empathetic, she just began to slash the machete again.

Seeing this, Tan Chang could only clench her teeth and step forward with a machete.

The Execution Room was full of screams and cries.

Finally, the last Magic Faction warrior was executed.

Tao Jin was covered in blood and sweat.

Tan Chang put down the knife and backed away a few steps, her face pale.

“Go get the body sacks.”

Tao Jin still looked calm at this time.

“Understood.”

Tan Chang glanced at Tao Jin. This was the first time she felt that Tao Jin was better than her.

Suddenly, she felt that Tao Jin seemed to be heartless.

Tan Chang went outside to get the sacks, leaving only Tao Jin in the Execution Room.

The moment Tan Chang went outside, Tao Jin suddenly started to violently gag.

The veins on her forehead popped out, and her eyes were bloodshot.

After she was done vomiting, Tao Jin glanced at the door again. Tan Chang had not yet returned.

She took out a porcelain bottle from her waist, walked next to a fresh dead body, and collected the blood into the porcelain bottle.

‘Practicing magic technique with the blood of a Magic Faction warrior, how ironic.’

Tao Jin put away the porcelain bottle, smiled self-deprecatingly, and gagged again.

…

Half a month had passed. It would soon be the end of the month.

Inside Kangyun County, various camps sent out a large number of city guards and Black Armored Guards towards Qiuyun County.

Soon, everyone in the city learned that the rebels in Dingyun County were already preparing to attack Qiuyun County.

Once this news came out, Kangyun County decided to send them help.

Because of this incident, the city was in chaos again.

Some people had already begun to sneak out of the city and seek refuge with relatives far away.

Most of these people were ordinary people and small businessmen.

As for the wealthy shopkeepers, they were being watched by the Black Armored Guards and couldn’t leave at all.

Restricting their movement was a way to prevent the outflow of resources. At the same time, they were afraid of them surrendering to the enemy.

A few days later, the Black Armored Guards and the city guards who were sent to help Qiuyun County came back.

After the people in the city saw the reinforcements returning, their morale decreased.

News came out that Kangyun County’s aid to Qiuyun County had failed. Qiuyun County, just like Dingyun County, had fallen.

After news of Qiuyun County falling spread, more and more people started to flee the city.

Everyone was afraid that Kangyun County would become the next Qiuyun County and Dingyuan County.

Panic was spreading in Kangyun County.

…

“This month’s resources have been paid out.”

There were three Qi Dans and two Swallowtail Flowers on Xu Ning’s table.

‘I’m ready to absorb energy…’

Xu Ning seemed a little anxious.

In fact, he was also affected by the depressive atmosphere in the city.

Only an improvement in his strength could really make Xu Ning feel at ease.

—

Discovered energy: 5 units——

Absorb?

Yes/No

—

“Yes!”

…

Soon, 21 units of energy were absorbed by Xu Ning.

—

Name: Xu Ning

Martial Arts:

Spring Breeze Tactic (Mortal realm fifth stage: Pneumatic Realm) +

Source Breath Bodybuilding Tactic (Perfection Realm)

Gale Knife Technique (Perfection Realm)

Light Feather Bow Technique (Elementary Realm) +

Available energy: 80 units

—

His Martial Arts Panel had refreshed.

Xu Ning’s energy reserves reached 80 units, which coincidentally was just enough to raise his strength to the internal qi realm.

After chasing the rebel soldiers previously and getting their loot, Xu Ning’s energy reserves had increased to 52 units.

Over the past twenty days, the Thousand Source Bug expelled Aura Crystals seven more times, allowing him to gain 7 units of energy.

Coupled with the 21 units from just now, he had the 80 units required.

Xu Ning thought for a bit and clicked “+”.

—

Consume 80 units of energy to advance the Spring Breeze Tactic?

Yes/No

— f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

“Yes sir.”

Instantly, the 80 units of energy that Xu Ning had accumulated with great difficulty had been cleaned out.

‘What a surge of internal qi!’

Xu Ning felt a real sense of fullness and contentment in his body.

‘When I was in the qi realm and the pneumatic realm, I was always worried that the qi in my body would be exhausted during combat, but now I don’t have to worry about this at all.’

After being promoted to the internal qi realm, the quality and quantity of Xu Ning’s internal qi that Xu Ning could store in his body had once again increased.

Xu Ning activated his internal qi and slammed his force into the air, making a soft crackling sound.

Subsequently, the internal qi that Xu Ning consumed was quickly regenerated and filled up.

‘My speed of regaining internal qi has increased by a whole magnitude.’

‘No wonder that the inner enrichment realm is the limit of the physical body, and the internal qi realm is the limit of force.’

Xu Ning finally understood.?‘These are the ultimate stages that can be reached in the body of a mortal. The next realm, the mortal realm seventh stage state mind realm, is another higher level of ascension…’

After adapting to his new strength, Xu Ning once again checked the energy units needed to advance to the state mind realm.

He needed 135 units of energy.

This amount shocked Xu Ning.

‘This is too much.’

Xu Ning would feel satisfied if he could save 30 units of energy every month and advance in less than five months.

After all, for a general martial artist, it would take a lifetime to reach from the internal qi realm to the state mind realm.

Only a top genius could make a breakthrough in five months.

But a battle was imminent, so the requirement of 135 units of energy worried Xu Ning.

‘It seemed that reaching this realm is the best I can do before the war begins…’

Xu Ning began to think,?‘I wonder if there is another chance to gain some energy to improve my Light Feather Bow Technique, or learn another external skill?’
