Xu Jingming also sensed the changes in his body. On the one hand, he was relaxed and happy, but on the other hand, he was sensitive to his surroundings.

I can sense my body in a much sharper manner.?Xu Jingming sat on the ground and took in the sensations his body gave him, only to be surprised.?Lv. 3 is about fusing the mind into every part of the body, greatly improving one’s physical response. But now, my physical response is even stronger!

Not only did his tendons, bones, and flesh—even his organs—feel much clearer, but it seemed as though the past clarity was a blur and was only average now.

The stronger my sensory response, the easier it will be for me to mobilize my body’s strength.?Xu Jingming got up, reached out, and retrieved the black spear before attempting it.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

With a shake of his spear, he spun and stabbed out dozens of times consecutively, producing afterimages—he was clearly much faster than before. Then, he used a move that had rapid force delivery as he swiped left and right. He also used Spear Cleave and Spear Crush, as well as other moves.

The feeling of every strike is clearer and more natural.?Xu Jingming nodded slightly.?With the country’s grooming, the method of training my mind might not be inferior to spearmanship in importance.

I don’t know the true name of this mind-training method. I’ll temporarily call it Mental Tempering Art, Xu Jingming thought.

I’ve learned three methods from that legendary cosmic expert, Xuan. Which one is more important—the Life-Nourishing Spear Technique, the Beam Transformation Spear Technique, or the Mental Tempering Art? It’s still impossible to determine, Xu Jingming thought.

Beam Transformation Spear Technique appeared to be the most powerful move, but it was only a single thrust! He ultimately hadn’t reached Xuan’s level, so it was impossible for him to use a single ‘thrust’ in combat.

In contrast, the Life-Nourishing Spear contained many variations of the spear.

Mental Tempering Art… had the effect of elevating one’s spirit and mind. It was also beneficial to one’s control over the body.

Oh right, other than these three, there’s also Xuan’s opponent.?Xu Jingming thought of the armored man.?In that battle, the opponent used shield and hammer techniques more than 9.87 million times. I sensed it clearly every time.

As he had possessed Xuan, Xu Jingming could clearly sense his opponent’s shield and hammer techniques.

Although I don’t know the essence behind them, with Xuan’s senses, I can at least see through parts of it, Xu Jingming thought.?Before Xuan broke through, that muscular expert even had the advantage in head-on clashes. It’s just that his speed was inferior.

His shield technique is very domineering.?Xu Jingming recalled the memories he had from experiencing more than 9 million strikes.?His shield technique is extremely domineering. It suppresses spacetime and obliterates everything!

A small area of space was obliterated where the shield and spear beam collided.

Xu Jingming extended his right hand, and a square shield similar to the muscular man’s appeared. It was more effective learning with similar weapons.

Bang!

Xu Jingming tried smashing his shield.

As he didn’t possess the armored man, Xu Jingming could only imitate him and try again and again according to his idea of shield techniques. Just like that, he executed shield techniques one after another on the mesa.

He practiced with his left hand and then with his right. This was because the armored man used a single-handed shield. When learning, Xu Jingming temporarily used a single-handed shield.

Beep! Beep! Beep!?

At 12 noon, Xu Jingming stopped practicing his shield technique when he was informed of the time.

...

At lunchtime, Xu Jingming went offline punctually. Feeling hungry, he saw Li Miaomiao sitting on the sofa in the living room.

“Jingming, are you hungry?” Li Miaomiao smiled.

“I’m a little hungry,” Xu Jingming said apologetically. “I was a little carried away by my training and didn’t log off.”

“The dishes have just been prepared,” Li Miaomiao said. “I guessed that even if you’re a Divine expert, you can’t spend more than 16 hours a day online. I guessed that you would definitely come out for lunch.”

“Five, it’s mealtime!” Li Miaomiao shouted.

The butler robot, Five, started carrying the dishes to the dining table.

Xu Jingming walked over and started eating in large mouthfuls. He hadn’t eaten for more than 30 hours after returning from Binhai, so he was naturally hungry and thirsty.

Li Miaomiao ate very slowly. She usually didn’t spend time in the virtual world during the day and ate all three meals. She only spent most of her time online at night because Radiant Sun players could only spend 12 hours a day online.

“Ever since you entered the Cosmos Ranking, you were taken away by the country the next afternoon,” Li Miaomiao said with a smile as she ate. “You were in seclusion after you returned. I’m afraid you haven’t been keeping up with matters, right?”

“What matters?” Xu Jingming asked.

“Ninth place appeared on the Cosmos Ranking yesterday, and tenth appeared today,” Li Miaomiao said.

“Two more appeared?” Xu Jingming nodded. “As time passes, experts will appear faster.” After all, China had groomed many people, so other countries would definitely groom their geniuses.

“World number nine is from Japan. Name’s Kiyori Toichi,” Li Miaomiao said.

“Oh, it’s him?” Xu Jingming nodded slightly. “He’s a martial arts expert from the older generation. He should be around 45 this year, and he’s the number one spearman in Japan. He’s also considered a spearmanship grandmaster.”

He also practiced spearmanship, so he naturally knew this overseas expert from the older generation.

In human history, it wasn’t just China that used spears; all the other countries had studied spears as well. In particular, the World Martial Arts Tournament had influenced the world for 30 years, allowing many spearmanship schools around the world to flourish. There were also many spearmanship practitioners in Japan.

“World number ten is from India. His name is Halu Singh, and he’s 25 this year,” Li Miaomiao said. “He was originally a martial arts genius, but he was injured during a competition at the age of 16, causing him to be bedridden. When the virtual world arrived, his body recovered, and he’s now ranked tenth in the world. India has gone crazy over him, and everyone idolizes this genius expert.”

Xu Jingming sighed with emotion. “Paralyzed at the age of 16? That’s terrible.”

As they chatted, Xu Jingming finished 80% of the food on the table and got up. “I’ll continue practicing my spearmanship.”

“You’ve practiced in the virtual world for more than 30 hours. You are still training while offline? Aren’t you tired?” Li Miaomiao couldn’t help but ask.

“I’m not tired; I’m filled with energy.” Xu Jingming grinned and picked up a spear before running to the yard to continue practicing.

Even learning the knowledge in a book took a long time. First, he had to understand the gist of things. Then, he had to analyze each and every piece of knowledge meticulously. He even needed to try some questions to determine if he really understood the content…

After careful study and assimilating the content, it could only be considered as gaining basic knowledge for a book.

It was the same with Xuan’s spearmanship!

Xu Jingming had only gained a basic understanding during his training in the virtual world; he hadn’t even grasped the basics. Even grasping the basics required a lot of time. It took time and effort to grasp it deeper.

Jingming is that engrossed in his spearmanship??Li Miaomiao looked through the glass window at her boyfriend in the yard, who was focused on his spearmanship. She couldn’t help but mutter to herself and sigh with emotion.?Perhaps this is why he’s ranked in the world’s top ten while I’m still stuck at Radiant Sun.

...

Xu Jingming studied in reality and practiced hard in the virtual world. Gradually, he became accustomed to it.

In reality, the focus was on the Mental Tempering Art! It was matched with three runs of Heavenly Python Evolution.

In the virtual world, he focused on Life-Nourishing Spear Technique, Beam Transformation Spear Technique, and shield techniques.

Xu Jingming didn’t have a clear direction in the past, so he could only fumble his way forward. Now that he had a clear direction, there were many things worth studying—be it spearmanship or shield techniques. He was completely immersed in them and didn’t care about the changes in the outside world.

In the outside world, as days passed, Fang Yu, Zhou Yi, Zhang Qing, Tie Lianyun, Xiong Tianshan, Zhao Fan, and others from China consecutively placed themselves on the Cosmos Ranking. There were even more experts from countries around the world who entered the Cosmos Ranking.

In the blink of an eye, September passed, and October arrived.
