Reborn with a System I Grow Stronger by Collecting Martial Debts - Chapter 2:
Chapter 2: Even Black-Hearted Capitalists Would Kneel and Call Me Father!
“My current strength is really weak!” Chen Mo sighed.
Martial cultivation was divided into nine major realms: Tier-1 Martial Artist, Tier-2 Martial Master, Tier-3 Martial Grandmaster, Tier-4 Martial Lord, Tier-5 Martial King, Tier-6 Martial Emperor, Tier-7 Martial Sovereign, Tier-8 Martial Saint, Tier-9 Martial God.
Each major realm was further divided into nine stages.
Before his rebirth, Chen Mo had already reached the 6th stage Martial Emperor, stepping into the ranks of the world’s top experts.
But now, Chen Mo was only a minor 1st tier Martial Artist.
The 1st tier Martial Artist Realm was the laying the foundation for martial cultivation. The 1st to 9th grades were respectively: Body Tempering, Blood Condensation, Body Refinement, Bone Forging, Bone Tempering, Core Forging, Marrow Cleansing, Meridian Opening, and Rebirth Transformation.
Chen Mo was currently at the 3rd stage Flesh Refinement Realm of the 1st tier Martial Artist and was about to break through to the 4th stage Bone Forging Realm.
In his previous life, when Chen Mo broke through to the 6th stage Martial Emperor Realm, he was only 28 years old, which was ten years later.
A Martial Emperor under 30 years old was extremely rare in the world.
Logically speaking, after being schemed against so badly by Liu Zihan, missing the Provincial Sprint Camp, and performing poorly in the [Holy Sect Trial], Chen Mo should not have achieved such high martial accomplishments later.
But fortunately, when Chen Mo was 25 years old, he met Ye Nishang, a 7th stage Martial Sovereign Realm.
From that moment on, the gears of fate began to turn.
Ye Nishang cultivated a strange Heaven-tier high-stage cultivation technique called the “Great Void Yin-Yang Art.”
Chen Mo seemed to possess a special physique and was the perfect “furnace” for Ye Nishang.
The core of the “Great Void Yin-Yang Art” was: “Evolve the true meaning of the Great Void, unite the great Dao of Yin and Yang, break chaos to create transformation, balance Yin and Yang, and transform all things into the Great Void.”
In the early stages, Chen Mo’s martial cultivation was low. When cultivating together, Ye Nishang’s “Supreme Yin” nourished Chen Mo’s “Supreme Yang.”
In just three years, Chen Mo’s cultivation advanced rapidly, gaining tremendous benefits from Ye Nishang.
Once Chen Mo broke through to the 7th stage Martial Sovereign Realm, he could nourish Ye Nishang in return, helping her break through to the 8th stage Martial Saint Realm, or even the 9th stage Martial God Realm.
Unfortunately, before Chen Mo could break through to the 7th stage Martial Sovereign Realm, a great martial catastrophe erupted.
And Chen Mo was reborn.
Thinking of Ye Nishang, that icy beauty, Chen Mo could not help but smile.
“If I meet you again in this life, I won’t let you suppress me anymore. This time, I’ll be the one suppressing you.”
Having lived again and possessing the system, if he still could not achieve that, then what was the point of being reborn?
Next, Chen Mo carefully studied the [Debt Must Be Repaid] system.
Its functions were even more powerful than he had expected.
First, debts were not limited to money or cultivation resources.
Even “favor debts” counted as debts.
In other words, whether someone owed him physical items like Bone Forging Grass or intangible favors, the system would classify them as debtors.
Second, the interest was not fixed.
It varied depending on the debtor’s situation.
For someone like Liu Zihan, who maliciously refused to repay her debt, the interest had reached a terrifying level in just one month.
Even black-hearted capitalists would kneel and call him father!
There were also many ways to repay the debt. Besides using martial cultivation and martial talent, as previously mentioned, even the debtor’s martial luck could be forcibly seized by the system.
…
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
At 9:00 in the morning.
Qingyun No.1 Martial Academy was already packed with people.
For the more than 10,000 first-year martial students present, today was an extremely important day.
(Due to force majeure, the background has been changed to first-year students. All martial students are already adults!)
Because this concerned the [Holy Sect Trial] two months later.
The [Holy Sect Trial] was conducted by the Dragon Nation’s five most powerful Holy Sects to select the nation’s top martial geniuses.
The age requirement for participating in the trial was between 18 and 20 years old.
At that time, first-year martial students, martial arts family descendants, and eligible trainees from martial academies across the nation would participate in this highly anticipated trial.
Every year, two months before the [Holy Sect Trial], the Provincial Sprint Camp would select outstanding martial students from major academies across the province for two months of final intensive training.
In Qingyun City, there were only 10 Provincial Sprint Camp slots.
But there were 32 martial academies in the entire city.
The first round of selection would choose the top ten students from each academy.
Then, those 320 outstanding students would compete for the final 10 Provincial Sprint Camp spots.
The difficulty was obvious.
At this moment, more than 10,000 martial students stared eagerly at the martial testing machines lined up in front of the training field.
“The test is about to begin. Damn, I’m so nervous I want to go to the bathroom.”
“You’re only at the 2nd stage Blood Condensation Realm. Why are you nervous? This has nothing to do with you.”
“What if I suddenly break out and perform well?”
“Come here. My urine is yellow. Let me see if I can wake you up.”
“Bro, that’s way too rude…”
“By the way, who do you think will pass the preliminary selection?”
“Hard to say for others, but Liu Zihan is definitely guaranteed.”
“Of course. Liu Zihan broke through to the 4th stage Bone Forging Realm a month ago, and she’s the only genius in our academy who has awakened a martial talent. Forget the preliminary selection, she’ll enter the Provincial Sprint Camp with her eyes closed.”
Martial talent, as the name implied, was a special ability awakened in martial cultivation.
For example, a Martial Artist who awakened [Strength Enhancement] would have far greater strength than others at the same level.
A Martial Artist who awakened [Steel Body] could possess a body as strong as someone at the 4th stage Bone Forging Realm even while at the 1st or 2nd stage.
Because of this, those who awakened martial talents could crush opponents of the same level and even fight across levels.
They were regarded as the chosen ones of martial cultivation.
On average, only one or two martial talent awakeners appeared among 100,000 Martial Artists.
…
Chen Mo calmly listened to the discussions around him.
At this moment, he had already broken through to the 4th stage Bone Forging Realm of the 1st realm Martial Artist.
After all, in his previous life, he had been a 6th stage Martial Emperor Realm. Even without Bone Forging Grass, breaking through was effortless for him.
The only regret was that Chen Mo could not cultivate the “Great Void Yin-Yang Art” alone.
Otherwise, his cultivation speed would be many times faster.
Before meeting Chen Mo in his previous life, Ye Nishang cultivated the technique alone.
As a result, she became an icy figure and suffered from bone-piercing cold poison every midnight.
If Chen Mo cultivated it alone, he would suffer from blazing Yang poison, enduring burning agony every day.
“I remember that in this year’s Provincial Sprint Camp, there was a white-haired martial genius girl who later became the provincial champion in the [Holy Sect Trial] and even entered the national top ten.”
“And she possessed the one-in-a-billion SSS-stage martial talent [Profound Yin Exquisite Body]. She’s the perfect dual cultivation partner for the Great Void Yin-Yang Art,” Chen Mo thought.
Therefore, he had to enter the Provincial Sprint Camp.
…
While Chen Mo was thinking, Chen Qingyang, the principal of Qingyun No.1 Martial Academy, stepped onto the platform at the front of the training field.
His gaze swept across the crowd, and the entire place instantly fell silent.
“The test begins!” Chen Qingyang ordered directly.
Without any unnecessary words, the selection test officially started.
Following the order, the first student nervously walked toward the two machines on the far left.
These were the Blood Energy Tester and the Strength Tester.
The student placed his hand on the first machine.
A few seconds later, the giant holographic screen above the field lit up.
“Name: Zhang Qiao”
“Blood Energy Value: 21”
“Martial Cultivation: 2nd stage Blood Condensation Realm, 1st stage Martial Artist”
Then Zhang Qiao walked to the strength tester and threw a punch.
Boom!
“Strength: 2025 kilograms”
This result was not ideal.
Next, student after student stepped forward to test.
There were 10 Blood Energy Testers and 10 Strength Testers, all connected to the giant holographic screen.
Everyone’s results were displayed in ranking order.
As time passed, two names at the 4th stage Bone Forging Realm appeared at the top.
“Cao Yun: Blood Energy Value 41, Strength 4120 kilograms, 4th stage Bone Forging, 1st tier Martial Artist”
“Duan Yankun: Blood Energy Value 40, Strength 4011 kilograms, 4th stage Bone Forging, 1st tier Martial Artist”
…
Two hours later, a sudden commotion erupted across the field.
Because Liu Zihan had appeared.
