Chapter 295 The Diamond Lungs
Zou Mingjun shook his head at the girl who was speaking: "I used to think that mental power cultivation was just a minor path, and that mental masters were nothing more than that. Low-level mental masters could only play a supporting role in battle."
However, after fighting that nameless man, I realized that there was a reason why the Blue Star government valued Divine Sense Masters.
If this person is truly from Earth, but isn't among the top twenty on Earth's list of trainee mental masters, then Earth's top mental genius is simply too powerful.
He could sense that the nameless man's martial arts were far inferior to his own. If they were at the same level or the difference was not significant, he would probably have been defeated instantly.
"No wonder that person was so arrogant. So he's a top student in the Department of Mental Strength at Blue Star University? Could he be from the Super Genius Class?" the girl asked.
"If that nameless person was from Blue Star, then he must be a member of the super genius class in the mental power system."
"We'll meet again eventually," Zou Mingjun nodded and said.
"Is there such a big difference between spiritual masters? There are two spiritual masters in our Hunan-Guangdong Province genius group. When we spar with them, they attack us with mental power and cause us to be distracted for a moment. But as long as we react quickly, we may not suffer too much loss."
Moreover, they can only launch a maximum of two mental attacks in a single battle. As long as one's combat awareness is strong enough, a mentalist can't gain much of an advantage. "One of the girls said.
Zou Mingjun glanced at the girl and asked, "Do you have a lot of experience fighting against psychic masters?"
The girl nodded and said, "I used to have a rival in the Hunan-Guangdong Province Genius Training Camp. She was also a Ranked Divine Sense Master. I fought her more than ten times and knew her Divine Sense Master skills quite well. Although she had some skills, that was all."

"Oh? Who is it?"
"Her name is Chi Nayuki, Captain, you probably don't know her."
Zou Mingjun nodded and said, "Like martial artists, there are also differences between spiritual masters. The lower-level spiritual masters naturally cannot be compared with the top-level spiritual masters."
"It's just a pity, Captain, your 100-game winning streak was already at 97; now you have to start all over again!"
Zou Mingjun shook his head and said nothing more.
On the other side, Chen Lie was immediately teleported out of the virtual battle space after winning.
At the same time, the voice of the Sumeru Illusionary Realm's AI rang out.
"Virtual battle victory, Starry Sky University's 100-battle genius series, current progress (12/100)."
Seeing that the progress had indeed increased by 10, Chen Lie did not hesitate and started another virtual battle.
In just two hours, Chen Lie engaged in 25 virtual battles, fighting against all the Refining Stage cultivators from the five stars in the eastern part of the Canglan Starfield.
Because Jing Mu Kuang's mental attacks were always effective against those in the Refining Stage, Chen Lie quickly increased his progress in the Hundred-Battle spree to (37/100).
Just as Chen Lie was preparing to engage in another virtual battle, he suddenly sensed someone entering the space room. Instantly, Chen Lie's consciousness was pulled out of the Sumeru Illusion and returned to his body.
Upon emerging from the hibernation pod, Chen Lie saw a staff member from the Sumeru Illusion Palace enter and sever the connection between the hibernation pod and the Sumeru Stone.
"Students, your instructors have instructed that this is your first time entering the Sumeru Illusionary Realm, and you will definitely be so engrossed in it that you will forget the time."
It has been three hours since you entered the Sumeru Illusionary Realm. It's best not to stay longer than three hours for your first time there, so your instructor asked me to come and welcome you.
Chen Lie nodded and said, "Okay, I understand!"
After saying that, Chen Lie walked into the space room.
In the main hall of the Sumeru Illusion Palace, a group of students from the 15th elite class had gathered together.
Huang Yuande spotted Chen Lie from the edge of the crowd and quickly said, "Chen Lie, you're out?"
"Hmm!" Chen Lie nodded.
"This Sumeru Illusionary Realm is truly a wonderful thing. In the simulated battles within the Sumeru Illusionary Realm, I fought against the automatic sparring partner more than ten times, and my body did not feel tired at all, yet I did not lose a single bit of combat experience."
As he spoke, Huang Yuande shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity that you can only enter the Sumeru Illusionary Realm for free three times a month; after that, you have to pay!"
"It's just 50 credits, isn't it?"
"Damn, is 50 credits not enough? If I go twice a week, I'll lose four or five hundred credits a month."
"I've spent all my credits on this, what am I going to eat? Should I even continue practicing martial arts?"
"Blue Star University shouldn't be that rigid; there must be places to earn credits," Chen Lie said.
"I've already inquired about places to earn credits for you."
Every Wednesday and Friday, Blue Star University sends a starship to Kunlun Ruins in the northwest, which is plagued by wild beasts. The journey takes only half an hour.
Students of Blue Star University can hunt alien beasts in Kunlun Ruins. Hunting a Tier 1 alien beast earns 20 credits, a Tier 2 alien beast earns 50 credits, and a Tier 3 alien beast earns 100 credits.
"With my limited skills, if I want to earn credits by hunting exotic beasts, I can only team up with others. If there are too many people, the credits will have to be split equally. Even if I work all day, I probably won't earn a hundred credits." Huang Yuande shrugged.
"So it turns out that academic credits can be earned by hunting exotic beasts."
Chen Lie muttered to himself, "That would make earning credits far too easy for me."
Hunting hundreds of strange beasts in a single day can earn you thousands of academic credits.
He put in his best effort, hunting down nearly a thousand strange beasts a day, which is worth more than 10,000 credits.
It seems that he no longer needs to worry about resources at Blue Star University.
However, hunting four hundred strange beasts in a day is already conspicuous enough; hunting over a thousand would be too shocking, and he certainly couldn't do that.
"By the way, Chen Lie, why didn't I see you in the Blue Star District of the Sumeru Illusion Realm?"
All the other students are here, but you're the only one I can't find.
"Oh? The Sumeru Illusionary Realm is also divided into the Blue Star Region?" Chen Lie asked.
"You didn't know? Didn't the staff here explain it to you before you entered the Sumeru Illusionary Realm?"
"I didn't have the staff explain it to me," Chen Lie said.
"No wonder. After entering the Sumeru Illusionary Realm and scanning the body, you can choose to automatically locate the Azure Blue Star Region, and then select the eastern part of the Azure Blue Star Region, Blue Star District."
"Okay, I understand!"
"It's no use knowing. Just now, our new class monitor, Mu Ningshu, punched you, but you didn't respond. She was very angry and publicly criticized you for being disobedient and unsociable, saying that everyone else was there but you were absent."
They might want to question you!
"She's just a class monitor, why should I care what she says?"
"You can't say that, after all, a higher-ranking official can have a lot of influence."
In name only, all the students in the class must obey the class monitor's orders. I know you must be quite powerful in Dongchuan Province, but when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head.
Mu Ningshu's strength is extremely high even among those at the Qi and Blood Extreme Realm. Although you are the leader of Dongchuan Martial Arts, you may not be her match.
After all, even Chi Naixue from our Hunan-Guangdong Province's genius training camp couldn't beat her."
"You don't need to worry about that."
Chen Lie waved his hand, then walked with Huang Yuande to the crowded area of the hall.
Surrounded by students from Class 15, Mu Ningshu saw Chen Lie, immediately turned around, and said expressionlessly, "Chen Lie, have you successfully entered the Sumeru Illusionary Realm?"
"We're in," Chen Lie said.
"Then why didn't I see you in the Sumeru Illusionary Realm? Were you deliberately hiding from everyone?"
Other classes all acted in unison when entering the Sumeru Illusionary Realm. Where did you go?
Chen Lie said, "I entered the wrong area; I didn't enter the Blue Star area."

"Could it be that you've entered another district?"
Mu Ningshu stared at Chen Lie.
Chen Lie nodded without answering.
Mu Ningshu frowned and said, "Since everyone is here, I'll talk about something our tutor mentioned to me today."
"1000 credits per month is not enough for many students, so our advisors require us to participate in a group credit-earning activity at least once a month."
It involves everyone traveling together on a starship to the northwest defense line to hunt alien beasts, and the credits earned from hunting the beasts are shared equally among everyone.
I'll confirm the date in a few days and then notify everyone individually. For now, please join the Green Bubble group!
Mu Ningshu took out her communicator, created a green bubble group chat, changed the group chat name to "Blue Star University 15th Key Class", and then pulled all 150 people present into the group.
"It's getting late. I'll let everyone know in the group chat when the instructor will have a martial arts class. Everyone, you can all leave now!"
As soon as Mu Ningshu finished speaking, the students who had been gathered there dispersed.
Chen Lie went straight back to his dormitory in the teaching building.
Once inside the dormitory, Chen Lie sat cross-legged on the sofa to cultivate his mental energy. He spent the entire night cultivating the "Lingguang Divine Refinement Chapter".
Through the virtual battle space of the Sumeru Illusionary Realm, Chen Lie clearly realized that the mental power of the mid-stage first rank was difficult to deal with the blood and qi extreme realm of the Blood Refining stage.
It took a great deal of effort to unleash the power of the second-tier Star God-Ghost Golden Sheep to trap a Blood Refining stage cultivator in a mental illusion, thus securing a narrow victory.
Only those with late-stage first-level mental strength can truly deal with those in the Blood Refining stage.
However, Chen Lie has already begun cultivating the Vajra of Internal Organs, and there is also considerable room for improvement in his Qi and Blood. Once he cultivates the Five Vajra, his strength will far surpass that of an ordinary Refining Organs stage cultivator.
The next morning, Chen Lie refused Huang Yuande's request to go to the restaurant for lunch. Instead, he took the rare martial arts treasures he had exchanged with Tang Guanlin and went to the fourth floor of the teaching building to open a private training room.
After entering the training room, Chen Lie went directly to the training platform in the middle of the room. He unpacked the martial arts treasures and placed them next to him, then sat down cross-legged.
He has completed a significant portion of his Vajra Lung training, and now that he has the corresponding martial arts treasures at his disposal, he will attempt to fully master the Vajra Lung today.
Chen Lie's "Dragon Nirvana Technique" began to operate, and his blood and qi began to surge. A phantom of a dragon kept circling around him.
Chen Lie turned his head and reached out to touch the martial arts treasure beside him.
Instantly, a powerful surge of energy emanated from his hand, crushing the martial arts treasures into powder and drawing them into his body.
With the continuous operation of the Vajra Refining Technique and the assistance of corresponding martial arts treasures, Chen Lie's lungs, which were originally only partially golden, gradually turned completely golden.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Lie's lungs completely turned golden and began to shine brightly.
He scanned the area with his divine sense and discovered that the energy around the bright golden lungs was alternating, expanding and contracting with each movement. As Chen Lie exhaled, the golden lungs continuously absorbed pure energy.
"The diamond lungs are complete!"
Chen Lie stood up. Now, he was no longer just one foot in the Dirty Refinement stage, but a true Dirty Refinement stage expert.
The mastery of the Vajra Lungs is a beneficial achievement in martial arts, bringing immediate results and long-term advantages.
Because once a martial artist reaches a higher level, they must practice breathing exercises to release true qi, at which time the lungs will play an indispensable role.
"In my previous life, I had already exhausted all my potential by reaching the ninth-level Grandmaster realm, and it was difficult to make any further progress."
"Now, with the solid foundation I've built, even if I lose the martial arts knowledge of the Central Galaxy Empire in my mind, I can most likely become a ninth-tier martial artist by cultivating step by step."
Having mastered the Vajra Lung, Chen Lie's physical abilities improved significantly once again. He felt that his current Qi and blood could not keep up with his cultivation level, so he took two resource books and went to the resource category building outside the teaching building.
Upon entering, Chen Lie arrived at the lobby of the resource category building.
"Hello, do you want to use credits to purchase martial arts resources and martial arts techniques?" the staff member at the window asked.
Chen Lie said, "I'm here to exchange for resources. These are resource books that I was awarded in the provincial martial arts competition before."
"Oh, it's a resource book. Okay, one resource book can be exchanged here for an item worth no more than 150."
Credit resources and resource books can also be used together; for example, two resource books can be exchanged for the same item worth 300.
Points can be used to acquire martial arts resources, techniques, or cultivation methods.
"No need. Just give me two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs within the value of the Golden Book. One to increase the strength of my Qi and blood, and the other to increase the purity of my Qi and blood."
As he spoke, Chen Lie took out two resource booklets and handed them to the staff.
The staff member took the resource booklet, checked it, and said, "Okay, please wait a moment!"
A short while later, the staff took out two ancient medicinal herbs from the window.
"These are the Thousand-Year Spirit Blood Red Lotus and the Thousand-Year Blood Grape. These two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs can respectively enhance the strength and purity of one's Qi and blood. I wonder if they meet your requirements?"
Chen Lie nodded and said, "Okay!"
After saying that, he left the Category Building with the two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs.
Back on the third floor of the teaching building, Chen Lie entered another personal cultivation room.
He directly consumed the two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs raw. After feeling the powerful energy growing within his body, Chen Lie's "Dragon Nirvana Technique" started operating again.
The cells in his body moved like hungry cosmic beasts, frantically devouring the energy brought by the two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs.
In just a moment, Chen Lie absorbed all the energy from the two thousand-year-old spiritual herbs.
Chen Lie clearly felt that his blood and qi surged, but the increase in his strength was negligible.
Once your stamina reaches twelve times its normal value, it becomes extremely difficult to improve it further.
