How did you do it?
Of course, it was all about uploading and downloading in one smooth motion.
At the critical moment, it was still Baidu Netdisk that could be relied upon.
This was also thanks to Cao Potian's pretentiousness, which made the invitation scrolls fly very slowly, floating over. It was also thanks to the upgraded smart assistant, which made the operation more convenient and time-saving, giving Lin Beichen this opportunity to take a shortcut and show off.
Otherwise, if the invitation scrolls flew like arrows, Lin Beichen wouldn't have had time to operate, and his wrists and arms would have been broken by the shock.
But such inside information, Lin Beichen naturally couldn't reveal.
He smiled and said, "Maybe I'm just very familiar with this invitation scroll."
Chu Hen: "......"
Are you treating this like you're eating a steak?
The other instructors were also silent and speechless.
But since Lin Beichen was unwilling to say, they naturally wouldn't press him further.
We are all adults.
Han BuFu's eyebrows furrowed, looking even more worried, but he still took the initiative to bow to Lin Beichen.
Lin Beichen's words just now had salvaged some of his dignity.
Yue Hongxiang was already used to it.
After experiencing the various events at the preliminary camp, in her eyes, nothing Lin Beichen did would surprise her anymore.
A moment later.
Bai Qin Yun, who had recovered his mobility, also came out of the medical room.
The ice-cold little girl used an unprecedentedly serious expression to carefully examine Lin Beichen from head to toe.
After a brief discussion among the three major figures of the academy, the test continued.
The entire test consisted of six major categories and twenty-eight subcategories.
A single person's complete test took two hours.
The four of them took a total of five hours to complete all the tests.
The final results were both within reason and unexpected.
The person with the strongest overall strength was still Han BuFu, with scores higher than the instructors had imagined, reaching the 9th level of Warrior, just one small step away from the Martial Master realm.
Yue Hongxiang was at the 6th level of Warrior.
Bai Qin Yun was at the 8th level of Warrior.
Lin Beichen was at the 9th level of Warrior, on par with Han BuFu.
Chu Hen's face was smiling, but he was slightly disappointed in his heart.
He had thought that Lin Beichen, who had repeatedly created miracles, could bring him even greater surprises.
But...
This result was also acceptable.
After all, Lin Beichen's strongest points were in swordsmanship, mystic energy, and physical strength.
His swordsmanship comprehension was at the A level, his mystic energy at the Super A level, and his physical strength at the A level.
These three points greatly boosted his overall score.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have reached the 9th level of Warrior.
Because his mystic energy resonance, frequency, upper and lower peaks, and control were all somewhat low.
Even lower than Yue Hongxiang's.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page.)
This clearly indicated a rapid improvement in cultivation over a short period of time.
In other words, it could be confirmed that Lin Beichen's combat strength had indeed improved rapidly after the fall of the War Heaven Marquis Manor. He hadn't hidden it, and this also indirectly proved how terrifying Lin Beichen's potential was. As long as he solidified his foundation, his future achievements would be limitless.
The biggest surprise was Bai Qin Yun.
This little girl, who had only been in school for a little over ten months, had excellent talent and potential.
With proper cultivation, she would bring great glory to the Third Academy.
Han BuFu's performance was slightly better than expected.
Only Yue Hongxiang...
Well, those who knew the reason for her advancement to the main competition had no objections to this result. Compared to the mid-year competition, Yue Hongxiang's improvement was still quite fast, which was also a cause for joy.
Soon, four highly targeted test reports were produced.
Lin Beichen and the others all received their test reports.
"Why does it feel like I'm getting a health check-up report on Earth?"
Lin Beichen couldn't help but comment in his heart.
"The reports detail and analyze your martial arts strengths and weaknesses. Go back and read them carefully, think about how to adjust and improve. When the special training starts, the academy will develop the most reasonable cultivation methods for you."
With Chu Hen's instructions, this test was finally over.
...
Bamboo Courtyard.
Lin Beichen was lying on the bed reading the report.
He actually knew his martial arts strengths and weaknesses very well.
The biggest problem was his unstable foundation.
His mystic energy, sword techniques, and strength were all obtained through the mobile app.
It was like in PUBG, where you land and immediately get a Level 3 helmet, Level 3 armor, Level 3 backpack, a fully equipped AWM with an 8x scope, and a fully equipped M4, along with all the first-aid kits and energy drinks, making you a god-like player.
But to truly achieve the level of "killing anyone who stands in your way," you need the skills to match such god-like equipment.
Lin Beichen's current situation was that he had the god-like equipment but lacked the skills.
To improve his "skills," he needed continuous practical training.
He wasn't worried about this.
What made him happy was that after carefully reading the report, he finally seemed to understand the martial arts realm system of this world—something that no one had ever taught him before, as it was considered basic knowledge.
When he went to the library before, he couldn't find any books on the martial arts realm system in the designated area.
But this report explained it in great detail.
The principle was simple and easy to understand.
What is cultivation for?
The martial arts civilization system of this world recognizes three purposes of cultivation:
First, greater strength.
Second, a more resilient body.
(To be continued, please turn the page.)
Third, a longer lifespan.
Therefore, the connotations of the martial arts realms are related to these three aspects.
The Warrior realm is divided into ten levels, based on the intensity of mystic energy.
1.0 is the 1st level of Warrior.
2.0 is the 2nd level of Warrior.
And so on.
10.0 is the Great Perfection of the Warrior realm.
Above that is the Martial Master realm.
Above the Martial Master realm is the Great Martial Master realm.
The standard supporting these values is simple:
Strength.
Generally speaking, a 1st level Warrior can generate about 100 pounds of explosive force when activating mystic energy, beyond the normal human strength. This increases to 200 pounds for a 2nd level Warrior, and so on, up to 1000 pounds for a 10th level Warrior at Great Perfection.
This is a terrifying number.
A thousand pounds of explosive force is enough to kill many creatures.
Why are the values so neatly standardized?
Perhaps it's because some of the sages who studied and divided the martial arts realms in this world had a bit of OCD.
It also makes it easier for later generations and observers to understand and categorize.
It's worth noting that the explosive force in this standard mainly refers to the explosive force generated when mystic energy is activated.
Without activating mystic energy, the physical strength of Warriors, due to the constant nourishment of mystic energy, is greater than that of ordinary people, but in the Warrior realm, it is limited. A typical 10th level Warrior, without the explosive force of mystic energy, has a physical strength of about 300 to 400 pounds. Those with exceptional talent might reach 600 to 700 pounds, but those with 1000 pounds are extremely rare.
Those with innate strength but no mystic energy cultivation might not necessarily lose in a pure strength contest against a Warrior.
The theoretical average lifespan of Warriors is slightly higher than that of ordinary people because their strong bodies can resist many diseases and accidents.
But theory often doesn't match reality.
Because Warriors face more battles and have a higher probability of going to dangerous places in the wild, most Warriors are likely to die young due to duels, adventures, and accidents, making them, in reality, shorter-lived than ordinary people.
This is a truly sad topic.
After reaching the Martial Master realm, in addition to these numerical standards, there are some visible standards that serve as the greatest indicators of martial arts strength:
The awakening of mystic energy attributes.

The updates are a bit irregular... I apologize to everyone.
There are still 3 updates today.
Also, the public WeChat account is still running a red envelope event, so everyone can pay attention.
This chapter mainly introduces the setting of the martial arts realm. Some of you might find it a bit watered down, but the author has almost exhausted his brain to create these detailed things. To avoid affecting your reading experience, I try to make it as natural as possible, like inserting ads. At the beginning of the book, I tried to focus on the story and avoid these narrative elements, but now I'm writing some.
