Chapter 290: Chapter 48: The Sixth Trial, Final Battle! (Two-in-One Da Zhang)

"You actually got first place?" Zhuang Ziqing gritted his teeth. "Didn’t you say you only had two spells of the seventh-turn Grassman Skill?"

"Yes." Zhao Xing shrugged. "You asked about the seventh-turn Grassman Skill, and indeed, there are only two."

"I’m going to fight you!" Zhuang Ziqing made a move to strangle Zhao Xing’s neck.

"Brother Zhuang, let it go." Cao Shuang quickly laughed and held him back.

Cai Jin also said, "Yes, even I, from the Taicang Institute, haven’t said anything. Why are you getting so excited?"

Han Bing said coldly, "Brother Zhuang, why don’t you ask him how many turns his other Grassman Skills have?"

Zhuang Ziqing paused, then asked, "Right, what about the others?"

"There are also two of the ninth-turn."

"..."

"Damn it, brothers, let’s beat him up!" Cao Shuang, Zhuang Ziqing, and Cai Jin immediately pounced on him.

...

Zhao Xing’s rapid progress shocked these upper-class geniuses.

"For the next seven days, I’m going to the Primordial Dojo to train as well!" Zhuang Ziqing said, "I still have two chances unused. This time, the fifty thousand points can’t just benefit Zhao Xing for nothing!"

"I used to think it was just a rumor that Zhao Xing only sleeps for one hour a day, but now I believe it," Cai Jin said. "Brother Zhuang, let’s go together!"

"Han Bing, you stay and keep an eye on Zhao Xing. Don’t let him secretly train more," Cao Shuang said.

"No need to bother, we’ll just team up and beat him half to death," Han Bing said expressionlessly.

"Hiss, you people from the Divine Might Army are ruthless. I just thought of using the Earth Palace Skill to lock him up."

"..."

After the rankings of the fourth round were announced, all the geniuses flew off to comprehend the Grassman Skill.

The top-ranking geniuses, including Shi Yong, were all stimulated by Zhao Xing.

The main academy of Taicang Institute was even howling!

The spring wind blew, and the battle drums thundered! They vowed not to return without taking first place!

If the academy’s selected training was taken first place by Zhao Xing, this genius from the Geography Institute, where would they save face in the future?!

Brothers, one word: train!

In the main hall of the Ten Thousand Skill Palace.

Lu Bang looked at the rankings of the fourth round and couldn’t help but shake his head: "This is outrageous. Not a single person from the Taicang Institute held the first place. Have they taken the resources and gone to practice other skills?!"

Liu Tianning smiled and said, "The performance of the Minister of Agriculture from Taicang Institute isn’t bad either. They occupy half of the top ten and more than half of the top twenty. Your students, Cai Jin and Feng Qi, are both excellent."

Lu Bang said, "Simply being good isn’t enough. I really regret recommending them to Marquis Tian. It would’ve been great if they stayed in the Taicang Institute."

Liu Tianning said, "Forcing them to stay wouldn’t mean they’d willingly cultivate Self Sect spells. It’s better to think of ways to attract them."

Lu Bang laughed and said, "Of course I understand this reasoning, but I don’t have your skill, Mr. Liu. Your Grassman Skill is unrivaled in the Nineteen States."

After Liu Zonghai’s improvement in Taihe County, Liu’s Technique of Weaving was recognized as the best Grassman Skill in the world.

During the Grand Ancestor’s time, it was widely promoted, but the difficulty was too high. Plus, during Emperor Wen’s period, with no wars, the Grassman Skill gradually had no use. Later, it was replaced with a simpler version, and Liu’s Technique of Weaving was reserved for the military.

As the Grassman Skill declined, only nine relatively simple versions were fully promoted during Emperor Jing’s period.

The Liu Family always wanted to restore the glory of the Grassman Skill, and Liu Tianning was the most outstanding among them.

Lu Bang had great admiration for Liu Tianning.

"After this Grassman training course by Mr. Liu, it will surely attract a large number of Military Minister of Agriculture Officers to cultivate the Grassman Skill."

"So many people went to comprehend it at the treasure lands of the Taicang Institute."

"Hmm? Even Shi Yong went to the most precious treasure land of the Taicang Institute, the ’Primordial Dojo,’ to comprehend?"

As one of the justice Directors of the Taicang Institute, Lu Bang was naturally the first to know the movements of various treasure lands. When he learned that Shi Yong had also gone to the Primordial Dojo of the Taicang Institute to comprehend, he grinned widely.

"Shi Yong has always been first in various trainings. After being in the sub-institute for so long, his cultivation during his spare time was not diligent. Compared to others, you could even say he was a bit lazy."

"He hasn’t even used the free passes to Primordial Dojo and Thirty-Six Waterway, which are available to upper-class geniuses."

"Now, there are actually four people ahead of him, especially the first-place Zhao Xing, who is not even from the Taicang Institute. It seems Shi Yong has also been stimulated."

Liu Tianning nodded: "Zhao Xing’s talent in the Grassman Skill is indeed extraordinary. If he can continue practicing, he will certainly achieve something in this field in the future."

Lu Bang raised his eyebrows, surprised by Liu Tianning’s high evaluation of Zhao Xing: "If that’s the case, let Zhao Xing stimulate these geniuses. They shouldn’t neglect the practice of Self Sect’s spells."

.....

In the fourth round, half of the participants were eliminated.

Of course, this was just an elimination in terms of the points reward test, not that they were forbidden to learn.

The remaining participants could still enter the Ten Thousand Skill Palace to study. Those who were ahead in the first and second rounds could also come to the third round to comprehend and get the basic points of the third round.

Some Ministers of Agriculture felt that the Grassman Skill had great potential. Even if there weren’t more points to be gained later, they still chose to spend more time cultivating it.

The vast majority, however, left after collecting the points.

After all, the Heavenly Time Sect and Earth Advantage Sect were the mainstream, and the other training courses also offered points. Naturally, they were not willing to waste time in the Grassman training course.

As for the fifty people who passed the fourth test, they all seized the time to cultivate the Grassman Skill.

Striving to perform well in the next round, ’Multiple Skills Integration.’

...

"Spell integration should originally be something to tackle after reaching the seventh-rank, but the Ministers of Agriculture in the Ten Suns Cave Heaven are already the best of the best. Many have begun this step already." Zhao Xing arrived at a square behind the main hall.
