"Integrating the Eternal Divine Eyes has truly enhanced my bloodline beyond expectation!"
"After just half a day of training, I've already broken through to Martial Arts Stage Two!"
A smile curled at the corners of Chu Feng's mouth.
Without a doubt, the Eternal Divine Eyes were the supreme eyes of the martial arts world!
Compared to other super eyes, the Eternal Divine Eyes were undoubtedly the most suitable for this realm!
"By the way, if I remember correctly, outer disciples of the Zhao Clan who break through to Stage Two can receive certain rewards…"
Martial arts families never mistreat their outstanding disciples. If one's cultivation advances, a substantial reward is guaranteed.
Chu Feng immediately headed to the Hall of Fortune.
The hall was managed by a scholar dressed in simple clothes. He glanced at Chu Feng, his eyes showing a hint of surprise. "You've reached Martial Arts Stage Two?"
"That's right."
Chu Feng nodded.
"Very well! According to the Zhao Clan's rules, you can receive fifty taels of silver."
The scholar quickly prepared fifty taels of silver and handed them to Chu Feng.
Disciples who could reach Stage Two before the age of fourteen had significant potential. The scholar, being wise and experienced, wouldn't neglect Chu Feng.
After receiving the silver, Chu Feng noticed a change in his interface—
Silver: 52
Reputation: 25
"So, advancing in cultivation also increases my reputation…"
Chu Feng thoughtfully stroked his chin.
He looked at the scholar and asked, "Can I exchange this silver for some pills to aid my training?"
The scholar patiently guided him, "If you head two miles east of the Zhao Clan, you'll find the Mysterious Pill Pavilion. They sell all kinds of pills at reasonable prices."
Chu Feng nodded and immediately set off for the Mysterious Pill Pavilion.
The guards and receptionists at the pavilion were not ordinary people but martial artists from various martial arts families.
As Chu Feng entered, they quickly noticed his cultivation had reached Martial Arts Stage Two.
A young woman approached him. "May I help you find a specific type of pill, sir?"
"I have fifty-two taels of silver. What's the best pill I can get with that?"
Chu Feng asked straightforwardly.
The receptionist understood immediately and retrieved a delicate jade bottle from a cabinet.
"This is the best pill for breaking through from Stage Two to Stage Three, called the Body Tempering Pill."
"It costs exactly fifty-two taels of silver."
Chu Feng spent all his silver without hesitation.
After the transaction, he quickly returned to the Zhao Clan, sat down, and adjusted his state of mind to its peak before opening the jade bottle.
"Everyone starts with two taels of silver."
"And breaking through to Stage Two earns you fifty taels."
"The best auxiliary pill for breaking through to Stage Three costs fifty-two taels."
"This is all deliberately arranged."
"Good thing I didn't spend those two taels recklessly, or I wouldn't have enough to buy the pill!"
With this realization, Chu Feng immediately consumed the Body Tempering Pill.
Since advancing to Stage Two could earn rewards to buy the best pills, using them right away would yield the best results.
He was here to complete his mission, not to train leisurely. The task was to maximize his cultivation level in the shortest time.
Concerns about rapid breakthroughs were irrelevant here.
As the pill took effect, a gentle energy spread through Chu Feng's body.
He wasted no time and began practicing the Flame Dragon Fist.
Now at Stage Two, the power of the Flame Dragon Fist became more apparent!
With each swing, strong gusts of wind accompanied his fists, and at the peak of his movements, flames crackled in the air.
Chu Feng's bones emitted cracking sounds, a sign of the pill's efficacy!
His cultivation advanced rapidly, and his body underwent significant changes…
Chu Feng continued practicing the Flame Dragon Fist without any fatigue, thanks to the pill's constant energy replenishment.
After an entire day of training…
"Boom!"
Another deep sound resonated within Chu Feng's body!
His cultivation had reached Martial Arts Stage Three!
"Fantastic!"
Chu Feng exhaled deeply, feeling the strengthening of his body, relishing the sense of power.
Compared to when he first entered the martial arts world, his strength had vastly improved!
Moreover, as his cultivation advanced, the abilities of the Eternal Divine Eyes seemed to grow as well!
With super vision, Chu Feng could now see everything within two miles as if there were no obstructions.
"According to Zhao Clan's rules, outer disciples who reach Stage Three before turning fourteen can become inner disciples!"
"The treatment for inner disciples is vastly superior to that for outer disciples."
"Besides receiving richer monthly stipends, they can also access the second floor of the Sky Martial Pavilion to learn more powerful martial skills and techniques."
Without further delay.
Chu Feng returned to the Hall of Fortune.
The scholar saw Chu Feng again and scratched his head, puzzled.
However, upon closer inspection, he realized Chu Feng's cultivation had already reached Stage Three!
"This…"
The scholar gaped at Chu Feng, full of disbelief. "You've reached Martial Arts Stage Three?"
"Indeed."
Chu Feng calmly nodded as if breakthroughs were a regular occurrence for him.
"I need to inform the elder of the Hall of Fortune. Since you've reached Stage Three, you can become an inner disciple."
"Your future arrangements are beyond my authority!"
The scholar hurried to the back of the hall.
Soon, a white-bearded but spirited elder came out.
The elder's eyes lit up upon seeing Chu Feng. "Excellent, reaching Stage Three before fourteen shows immense potential!"
"Here is your inner disciple token and a reward of five hundred taels of silver."
"With this token, you can go to the Sky Martial Pavilion and choose two martial skills that suit you. Don't aim too high; pick ones that fit you best."
"Additionally, you'll receive a monthly stipend of fifty taels of silver."
After receiving the inner disciple token, Chu Feng's interface changed again—
