The Favored Son of Heaven

One day, two days, three days, four days…

One week, two weeks, three weeks…

One month, two months, three months…

Time flew and Qin Fen lived almost the same routine every day.

He would wake up, go to special training, eat, and cultivate. He would rest and sleep when he was tired.

This hermit-like life, like in a scenario where one would be immersed completely, could make people forget time and ignore the existence of space.

Occasionally, the two head of departments, Sakra Azia and Ferrero, would appear in Asura’s training ground, to deliver the batch of medicine that belonged to the young people.

As the disciples of the heads, the medicine given by Sacred Martial Hall was quite sufficient.

However, none of this batch of medicine belonged to Qin Fen in the eyes of the Sacred Martial Hall, because he had not passed the so-called apprenticeship test.

In this case, it was natural that it did not trouble Caesar and the others.

Every time they received the medicine, everyone would gather all of the different medicinal herbs together and then redistribute them evenly. Naturally, some of the medicine would reach the hands of Qin Fen.

The Secret Art Hall had all kinds of secret art suitable for everyone. With the guidance and teachings of the two heads, everyone’s martial foundation had grown unconsciously. Qin Fen, who was temporarily not a disciple, could only stand aside and listen.

Of course, the eyesights of these two heads were brilliant. When they taught martial dao and noticed that Qin Fen’s eyebrows had a hint of doubt, they would explain the topic with more details.

With his whole heart and body devoted to martial dao, Qin Fen had been specially trained for nearly half a year without realizing it. Not only did his active level gradually raise, his star-class strength also continued to rise at a high speed. Even his own martial dao road was constantly being refined.

The strength of eleven-star was raised to the twelve-star class level. Not long after that, his twelve-star class level was upgraded to the thirteen-star class level.

Asura Fenghua Danyun watched Qin Fen quietly as Qin Fen meditated. The strength of this young man did not stay in the thirteen-star class strength for long and he had made an amazing breakthrough again. His aura of power entered the strength of the fourteen-star class level directly.

In less than half a year, Qin Fen reached the peak of the fourteen-star. This was the speed of improvement that would make the Martial Madman back then concede in defeat.

The true energy of The World Martial Arts Master Outline flowed slowly in the body. Qin Fen felt it very clearly. Today’s true energy was harder to push than ever during his cultivation, as if there were some weird obstacles blocking in front.

This was not the first time Qin Fen Had experienced this feeling.

Every time his star-class strength was about to improve, the true energy during the cultivation process would become very lazy, as if every ounce of true energy were pressed on by a rock of millions of catty.

The feelings these days were all the same, but the feeling today was especially clear.

About to breakthrough again! Qin Fen held his firm martial dao heart and was not over-excited because of the possible breakthrough, which would result in a lack of concentration.

Raise the level! Qin Fen had accumulated a lot of experience in terms of raising the level. If the concentration of the heart was lost in this moment, then not only would the raise fail, even the heart would. No one could help raise star-class strength externally. Qin Fen’s forehead oozed sweat as large as beans gradually. His solemn expression was like a thousand-year-old stone Buddha.

“This is…?”

Fenghua Danyun’s watery eyes flashed a huge surprise. This was not the first time this expression was seen in Qin Fen during the six months of special training.

Every single time! Every time Qin Fen were to breakthrough a star-class strength, he would be in such a special state!

“Fifteen-star?”

Fenghua Danyun’s cheeks twitched repeatedly. She was not as shocked when Qin Fen spent less than ten days during the special training to breakthrough from eleven star-class to twelve-star level as compared to today.

Fifteen-star… countless martial artists with great prospects have been stuck at this level for their entire life and could never surpass it.

If a fourteen-star level martial artist wanted to enter fifteen-star, they must have completed the Nirvana Marrow Transformation first.

How long has it been since Qin Fen entered the fourteen-star class? Even if his active level had reached a value of one million… that had nothing to do with Nirvana Marrow Transformation, it should’ve needed a long time to experience and comprehend slowly.

Unless he doesn’t need to complete the Nirvana Marrow Transformation? Fenghua Danyun shook her head repeatedly . This is absolutely impossible! No martial artist could violate this ironclad law. Without Nirvana Marrow Transformation, you can’t break through and enter the fifteen-star class strength.

Unless he had already completed the Nirvana Marrow Transformation? Fenghua Danyun’s look was more dignified, this Nirvana Marrow Transformation could be said to be a really special existence that could not be described by words. She had simply told Qin Fen about the feeling of the so-called Nirvana Marrow Transformation a few days ago. Did he complete it easily just like that?

For the first time, there was agony in Fenghua Danyun’s smile. She found the right genius of martial artists, but this was the first time she had seen a genius martial artist as such. Even the Martial Madman or any other big masters of Sacred Martial Hall had suffered a lot during the Nirvana Marrow Transformation.

This level was regarded as a nightmare by countless of genius martial artists… Fenghua Danyun sighed helplessly. It was the first time she saw someone who could enter the fifteen-star class so easily.

“Hey!” Fenghua Danyun sighed again. When Ferrero and Aziya came last time, he said that Qin Fen was about to encounter the Nirvana Marrow Transformation and he was worried that it would become a divine dragon lock that locked Qin Fen.

It seemed that the fear at the time was a waste of emotion.

Fenghua Danyun’s pink cheeks showed a shallow smirk once again . When Ferrero and the others come again next time, it must be able to scare them, right?

Pa…

Qin Fen’s clothes expanded outward suddenly, the sound of a whip twitching in the air was heard and his sweat at this moment had shaken off his skin along with his clothes.

In the windless room, the clothes expanded automatically! Caesar’s eyes lit up. His handsome face smiled happily and he looked at his equally happy companions.

What did this mean? This meant that Qin Fen’s true energy could be released! The basic condition that could release the true energy would need the strength of a martial artist that had reached the strength of the fifteen-star class!

Fifteen star-class… Fenghua Danyun’s heart vibrated. She suddenly understood what Qin Fen had just achieved, he might have created a brand new martial artists record! The youngest martial artist who entered the fifteen-star realm!

The youngest? Fenghua Danyun thought for a few seconds and confirmed her speculation once again.

“That’s right! He must be the youngest!” Fenghua Danyun nodded, “Jupiter’s Qinglong was only rumored to be very young, but it is not necessarily that he would be so young. Even if he was younger, he wouldn’t enter fifteen-stars as fast as Qin Fen.”

Hu…

Qin Fen exhaled a pure, long arrow-like energy slightly that was almost visible to the naked eye. When his eyes opened again, there was no feeling of being as sharp as a knife like before. Instead, it was a little calmer and restrained.

“Qin Fen, congratulations!”

Caesar cheered as several young people pounced on Qin Fen and the sweaty Qin Fen was pushed to the ground.

Fenghua Danyun’s lips clicked in admiration as she became more curious about Qin Fen. Every young martial artist who was present was people who wanted to explore the limits of martial dao. It was obvious that they have a strong desire to compete with each other and this could be seen during their usual training.

You are strong, I am stronger! You are fierce, I am more fierce!

With such a strong competitive state, it would not be surprising if it was filled with hostile emotions. This could almost be said that they were competitive to the point where they could kill one another, yet they take care of each other, without the slightest of jealousy and only have a heart for the competition.

Whenever someone had the strength to break through, those congratulations were always sincere and happy; there would be no hint of toxic hypocrisy.

Strange, it’s really strange. Fenghua Danyun didn’t notice that her smile also had the sweetness that was not seen in the past.

In this somewhat hypocritical society, Fenghua Danyun was also very clear, whether it was friends between the Sacred Martial Hall martial artists or many so-called friends in the outside world, when she heard about people being promoted to other places or made a fortune, her mouth screamed congratulations but had a false smile. Yet, when she turned around she revealed a heart of strong jealousy.

“Hu…”

For the first time, Fenghua Danyun was a bit jealous of Qin Fen. It wasn’t about his frightening active level or because he managed to break through a point easily which others struggle to break through. It was because of the group of caring friends who surrounded him.

“If I had such a bunch of friends, how good would that be?”

Fenghua Danyun turned quietly and walked to the side. If there were such a friend in life, what else was there to demand?

Laughing and battling had temporarily replaced the atmosphere of the cruel special training.

Fenghua Danyun watched everyone’s celebration for ten minutes quietly and then she clapped her slender hands, “Everyone done being happy ah? Then continue to train! Do not think that becoming the youngest fifteen-star class martial artists and creating history is something worth to be prideful about. I heard the little Madman had just successfully broken through to the sixteen-star class and the time for the half-year special training’s end is very close. If you don’t want to lose too much, you need to step up your training.”

The Martial Madman finally reached the sixteen-star class? Qin Fen stood up from the ground with a bit of caution in his eyebrows. This opponent was very different from other opponents, there was almost no advantage to be in front of him.

The deep foundations that had been accumulated have been developed within the past six months. If the deep foundation was lost, most of the ability to overcome the challenge would be lost as well. At least the ability to overcome the challenge would be weakened by a lot.

At that time, at eleven star-class he could fortunately defeat a fourteen-star class. Today, if Qin Fen, who was fifteen-star class, were to fight against the martial artists of the seventeen-star-class, he knew it clearly that the outcome would be a hundred percent defeat.

The higher the star-class, the greater the gap between each star-classes.

To describe the gap between each star-classes to be as big as Hong Gou [1] may not be enough.

Caesar nodded lightly and looked at Qin Fen with a little worry. This freak may be a rare freak among the fifteen-star class martial artists, but isn’t the Martial Madman a famed genius martial artist? Qin Fen had a certain level of ability to challenge, but what about the Martial Madman?

The joy of everyone because of Qin Fen’s success just now was extinguished quickly with Fenghua Danyun pouring cold water [2] on the heads of the group.

“What are you afraid of?” Qin Fen patted Yang Lie, “Don’t forget, I have a strange power that few martial artists have.”

Strange power…

Fenghua Danyun’s lovely lips twitched. This strange power was indeed a huge trump card of Qin Fen in battle. As the strength of his star-class grew, his strange power also grew terribly.

If martial artists of the same star-class battled against Qin Fen, there was almost no possibility of winning. The same quality and quantity of true energy, when in the process of offsetting each other, would fully display the power of Qin Fen’s monstrous abilities.

When Fenghua Danyun fought with the fourteen-star Qin Fen, the outcome was that she flew out with just a punch. If she did not adjust in time, her body would possibly break through the wall of the house.

“Strange power ah?” Fenghua Danyun’s smile was seen in the corners of her eyes and everyone suddenly felt a chill. This kind of smile represented the witch wanted to use quirky means to conduct special training experiments again.

Not long later, in the special training house, Qin Fen’s groan could be heard. Qin Fen, who had strong endurance groaned non-stop, even though he hadn’t screamed. Xue Tian, who had just pushed the door to enter was wise enough to retract the hand that was on the door.

“It seems that the witch is in a good mood today, I don’t want to go in and provoke her at the moment.” Xue Tian leaned his back against the wall outside the room and took out a notebook from his arms and looked at it leisurely, “The Head of Invitation Department is really amazing. Every time I go, I can get new things. I don’t know how long I can learn this time. However, Master Ferrero’s complexion today was not good. Is he unwell?”

“Ah ti!” Ferrero sneezed in the office and sat on the futon with a helpless look.

As for Xue Tian, Ferrero had to admit that he underestimated him.

When the “Twelve Styles of Swords and Blades” that was originally given to Xue Tian, Ferrero had concluded that he had to study for more than half a year.

As a result, he did not expect that Xue Tian took a leave of absence from Asura for half a month and came forth and asked for new martial arts to be taught.

Ferrero certainly didn’t believe that someone else could learn anything from in a year or even a few years, yet Xue Tian had learned it all in half a month and asked to be tested on the spot.

In the subsequent tests, Ferrero had to admit that Xue Tian may not be as monstrous as Qin Fen but he was definitely not an ordinary genius character.

“This is the ‘Thirty-six Style Sword of The Dipper’ that I have developed from the ‘Twelve Styles of Swords and Blades’. I estimate that in a year… no! I estimate that you will not come to me within half a year…”

Ferrero’s voice still echoed in his ear and a month later, Xue Tian visited his doorstep again.

“You have learned it again? That’s good! This is the ‘Seventy-two Styles Demon Sword’ that I created because of the ‘Thirty-six Style Sword of The Dipper’. This time, I believe no matter what you need more than half a year to learn.”

After a month and a half, Ferrero had to say to Xue Tian again, “This is the two sets of martial arts that I have reintegrated to create, ‘Hundred and Eight Swords of Heaven and Earth’. Enough for you to learn for half a year!”

Certainty soon became uncertainty.

Ferrero rubbed his forehead gently. Xue Tian, who was just given “Hundred and Eight Swords of Heaven and Earth”, visited once again and it still did not take Xue Tian half a year to understand it. This time even notes of “Dual Swords Technique” were given to him just to temporarily make him stop coming.

“Hu…”

Ferrero had a feeling of depression. Qin Fen was someone who couldn’t learn others’ things, but he could learn it after he had observed others; Xue Tian, however, was a super learning machine. He could learn and comprehend the creators’ full efforts completely without any mistakes in a short period.

“The things that were given this time are good. It seems that I really have to study it properly.” Xue Tian leaned against the wall and his eyes were full of interest, “The more exciting it is, the faster I learn. Even if my strength couldn’t match the written state, the essence will soon be mastered by me.”

“Xue Tian, you have been taking your time outside the door for a long time ah? Don’t you want to sleep tonight? Ready to eat late at night?”

Asura’s words came out from the door. Xue Tian put away the notes immediately, put on a cute smile and pushed the door into the room. He nodded and said, “No, no. I realized that I went out on vacation and forgot to buy sister Danyun’s gift and I was blaming myself.”

The hero who does not accept the loss in front of him was played by Xue Tian to the extreme. The thing about eating late at night, even Qin Fen said that it was so painful that it was like a hundred layers of skin being skinned alive.

The time during the special training flew away unconsciously once again, and half a year had passed.

Qin Fen ran a week-long cycle and opened his eyes slowly. Caesar and the others smiled as they stood by his side.

Today was the last day of the special training. Everyone ended all their training early for the first time and Xue Tian even greeted Asura and left in a flash.

In the daily lives of these six months, no one had ever left this almost enclosed place except for Xue Tian, who occasionally went out during the training interval. Everyone had already gotten used to the sudden disappearance of Xue Tian.

The door of the special training room opened slowly on both sides as Qin Fen opened his eyes, welcoming the long-awaited sunshine.

The beautiful sunshine shone on the back of Fenghua Danyun, suddenly giving everyone the illusion of a fairy that had descended from the sky.

However, this illusion flashed in the hearts of young martial artists for only an instant. After half a year of the special training, Asura Fenghua Danyun’s weird training had led everyone to agree that this was a witch who wore an angel cloth.

“Okay! You may all leave ah.”

Fenghua Danyun simply stood at the side of the door and she used a lady-like gesture to ask them to leave.

Qin Fen was slightly shocked, half a year of special training, getting along with each other, and everyone had established some sort of feelings in this relationship.

When the special training was completed, they were like students that had completed a stage in education. They were about to graduate and step out of the school.

It was this kind of time that people would often have a little sadness in their emotions. Even if the relationship between the teachers and students was not good, they would become sad because of the atmosphere of separation and they would only remember the good of each other.

This woman did not actually reminisce during the departure. Her straightforward actions and words were quite unacceptable.

“What? Don’t you want to leave?” Fenghua Danyun smiled as she moved her wrist, “You still want me to give you another special training for another half a year ah…”

Fenghua Danyun had not finished her sentence and there was a loud roar in the room, the sound like a barrage of arrows broke through the air.

The strong wind blew and Fenghua Danyun’s waterfall-like hair was flowing gently along with her slightly cunning smile, which gave people a different feeling of beauty.

However, this kind of beauty was unable to be retained and the young martial artists rushed out of the special training room in a flash.

Qin Fen looked at Caesar and the others’ movement techniques and smiled bitterly. Fenghua Danyun’s long special training gave everyone a lot of improvement. No one expected the last sentence after the special training was completed was able to make everyone react faster than before.

After half a year of special training, they devoted fully.

When they stopped the special training, they looked back at the special training scene. Qin Fen’s spine has a burst of cold sweat, there was a feeling of death better than life. It was many times worse than being killed.

“Hehe…” Fenghua Danyun’s hand covered her lips and there was a faint mist in her eyes. “You guys better be more diligent ah.”

Boom!

The door of the special training room closed and Fenghua Danyun’s long hair fluttered into the air. The sound of an automated voice sounded again, “After training these people, I have temporarily lost the interest of training others ah. I am in a bad mood, a really bad mood ah. A few excellent newcomers came a few months ago. If their performances can’t satisfy me, I will train until they die ah.”

Exit! Qin Fen ran quickly onto the streets of the Sacred Martial Hall and the sound of a whistle traveled through his ears. His emotion was like a wild horse that was spreading rapidly in his body.

The Martial Madman entered the sixteen star-class, was there any new development now? Qin Fen’s brain was thinking about a few things. I heard that Sacred Martial Hall had a newcomer a few months ago and entered the Sacred Martial Hall in a ten-star class state. From their first move, they seem very formidable and they also gave the people who came to perform their glorious traditions and sent those people to the hospital directly.

Martial artists around the world really couldn’t be belittled! Qin Fen looked up at the fiery sun in the sky and his fists were held together tightly subconsciously. He would leave the Sacred Martial Hall after a little more cultivation! There was one thing that must be done!

As he touched the antique phone, Qin Fen dialed a number that was familiar that he had not dialed for a long time quickly.

“I am very dissatisfied…”

Qin Fen listened to the familiar voice from the receiver, and his face had an unspeakable feeling in his heart. During the seclusion period, he could not even make a phone call to the outside. He could only get news from Ferrero when he talked about the outside world occasionally. In the past six months, Qin Fen indeed owed Song Jia.

Behind the sentence of ‘I am very dissatisfied’, there was no hint Song Jia’s voice like it was in the past, but was followed by a series of gentle sobbing.

Qin Fen’s heart sank slightly, for half a year, even after the seclusion…

“I know you are in a seclusion special training…” Song Jia’s sobbing voice did not stop and her words came forth intermittently, “But my heart was still feeling uncomfortable.”

Qin Fen stopped running and stood quietly as he listened to Song Jia’s remarks.

After ten minutes, Song Jia finally stopped sobbing and there was a hint of happiness in her voice, “How? Are you out now?”

“En, fifteen star-class level.”

“Fifteen-star-class level? So fast? I am very satisfied!”

The long-awaited ‘ I am very satisfied’ or ‘I am very dissatisfied’. Qin Fen shrugged and whispered to the microphone, “No matter how Qilin looks at me, I will come and propose in a few days.”

“Ah…”

On the other side of the phone, Song Jia’s exclamation, gladness, surprise, happiness, unexpectedness, shyness… they all contained an unspeakable emotion. It expressed that her heart was shaken.
