3 B-Level Martial Art, Falling Leaves Deadly Knives

Two days flew by in a flash.

In the forest, Li Jiye, who was utterly frazzled, pulled out his dagger from a Tier 2 Wind Wolf and let the scarlet blood splash onto his own body.

After taking the magic core, he turned around and started the journey back to the academy.

For Li Jiye, the assessment mission this time was full of the fruits of his labor.

Soon after, when he took out the Tier 2 magic cores in front of everyone on the academy square, everyone around burst out in exclamation.

The participants of this assessment were those who had yet to pass the skill-awakening last year, and for them, it wasn't an easy feat killing a Tier 1 demonic beast.

Under these circumstances, Li Jiye naturally took first place. The second place was even 59 points behind him!

Several instructors there looked at him as if they had picked up a piece of treasure.

During the award ceremony.

Li Jiye and the other nine people in the top 10 walked up to the high platform.

Immediately, Teacher Grasse announced the rewards for the second to tenth place. Each student obtained two body-building potions, while the first place obtained a body-building potion and a Tier 2-promotion potion.

Such a generous reward immediately caused a burst of exclamation.

As for Li Jiye, he took the opportunity to get closer to check Grasse's information.

Human: Grasse

Skill: B-level Wood Element

Realm: Tier 4 Warrior

Martial Arts: Vine Whip (C-level martial art), Falling Leaves Deadly Knives (B-level martial art)

It was a B-level martial art again!

Bilder had a movement technique, while Grasse had martial arts.

In comparison, the movement technique was undoubtedly much more precious.

But a B-level martial art was considered extremely rare for Li Jiye.

He was really caught in a dilemma between the two.

In the adult world, there was no such thing as settling on one.

He wanted both!

After the rewards for the others were distributed, he and a few mentors were left on the high platform.

He had already checked the skills and martial arts of the other instructors. No other martial art rivaled the Falling Leaves Deadly Knives.

Thus, Grasse was his best choice now.

"Li Jiye, your performance today was excellent. However, you cannot be too arrogant and complacent. You have a long way ahead of you. Don't be blinded by the momentary fame and fortune in front of you." Grasse nodded satisfactorily at him.

While talking, Grasse also handed the reward to him.

"I will keep your teachings in mind!" He accepted the reward with both hands.

"Teacher Grasse, I have always admired you. Can I shake hands with you?"

Taken aback for a moment, Grasse immediately nodded.

Li Jiye immediately freed a hand and reached out to Grasse.

Grasse also reached out to shake his hands.

"Ding! Congratulations on your successful replication of the B-level martial art, Falling Leaves Deadly Knives."

It was successful!

The B-level martial art was now his!

Li Jiye's heart was swelling with joy, and he tuned out what Grasse was saying.

He was 100% satisfied with this assessment.

Besides gaining the magic cores and the medicine potion, he had also gained the very important B-level martial art.

His next target was Bilder.

A B-level movement technique would definitely make him stronger.

"Li Jiye, come with me to test your skills. I have something to tell you later," Grasse suddenly said.

Startled, Li Jiye nodded quickly.

Grasse passed on his duties to the other mentors and immediately left with Li Jiye.

Soon, they arrived at the place for his skill-awakening. Under Grasse's supervision, he re-tested his skill.

When it was detected that Li Jiye only had a C-level Wind Element, a hint of imperceptible loss flashed across Grasse's eyes.

But he quickly regained his composure.

Not long after, Grasse brought him back to his office and asked him some questions.

After receiving his answers one by one, Grasse then assigned him to the C-level class.

Li Jiye left the office and went directly to Yibao Pavilion.

He sold all the magic cores and the promotion liquid for advancing to Tier 2. He then used all the gold coins obtained to purchase a body-building potion.

At night, he quietly left the dormitory and looked for an open mountain forest. He observed the surrounding area before settling down at the back.

When dawn broke, he opened his eyes.

After a night of refining, most of the body-building potion had been consumed.

His physical strength also skyrocketed.

But he still had a ways to go from learning the Godspeed Steps.

Fortunately, he still had some body-building potion left.

Looking at the weather, he decided not to continue cultivating.

He returned to take a bath in his dormitory and then went to his new class.

His story had spread throughout the school, and the students had all changed their views of him.

There was no more contempt and disdain when they saw him again.

In class, Li Jiye also greeted his new mentor, Daphne.

"Li Jiye, I have already heard of your performance in the assessment yesterday. I'm delighted that you're able to become my student. In the future, I hope you can improve your strength by leaps and bounds with my help," Daphne said with a gentle smile on her face.

"Teacher Daphne, you're too kind. It's my honor to be your student," Li Jiye politely replied to her.

"Okay. Go sit with Alice. You can introduce yourself once everyone is here."

Li Jiye nodded and walked in the direction Daphne pointed at.

Not long after, when all the students had arrived, Li Jiye went up to the podium and made a simple self-introduction as per Daphne's instructions.

After school, at noon, Daphne called him to the office alone.

He felt a little puzzled and wondered why Daphne wanted to talk privately with him.

"Li Jiye, you should know the Grand Four-City Contest, right?" Daphne asked.

"I've heard others talk about it, but I don't know it well."

He wasn't powerful back then and naturally didn't know much about these things.

"Yes, the Grand Four-City Contest is a duel between the four small towns under the medium-sized Yaoyang City, including Polar Star City. The other three cities have their own academies, just like our Polar Star City." Daphne nodded slightly. "The competition has a total of two events. One is the Tier 2 warrior competition, and the other is the Tier 3 competition."

"You're only at Tier 1 now, but with the assistance of the Tier 2-promotion potion, you'll reach Tier 2 sooner or later. The Grand Four-City Contest is still half a year away. You'll have a chance to participate."

"Not only will there be generous rewards, but most importantly, you can further broaden your horizons."

"Moreover, if you perform well in the Four-City Contest, you'll also have the opportunity to represent Yaoyang City in a duel with several participants from the Orc tribe. Regardless of whether you emerge victorious, it'll definitely be an extremely glorious thing!"

Although the relationship between humans and Orcs wasn't as direct as that with the demonic beasts, it was definitely not harmonious either.

Many Orcs had become slaves to humans, but even more humans had been killed and eaten by Orcs…

Li Jiye kept Daphne's words in mind and secretly came to a decision in his heart.
