I Have A Martial Dao World-Chapter 735 - 734. Methodical and well-organized
Chapter 735: 734. Methodical and well-organized Chapter 735: 734. Methodical and well-organized “`
Competitors unleashed their ultimate techniques, locked in intense combat at the pace of roughly 30 seconds per round, spilling blood and sweat.
By the end of the first day’s contests, the champion of the “Blood-Exchange Group” was no longer in doubt—it was “Zhu Beneng,” who had been enlightened by Lu Yao.
This individual had a history of wartime achievements, with ample resources like the Ten-Complete Immortal Pill for cultivation, and also had a wealth of combat experience.
Most crucially, he had ascended to the Spirit Refining Oblivion during the battle against Izumo and, with his Spirit Refining Stage overwhelming everyone else, stood out among the many competitors.
By contrast, the competition in the Innate Group was fiercely contested.
The women included Bai Lu of the Wudang Sect, Yun Qinglan of the Joyful Sect, and previous candidates for the most beautiful woman in the martial world—Wen Qiaoqiao, Miao Ruoxi, Ran Qingying.
The men were the Fu Fangsheng brothers, as well as the eldest and youngest of the Seven Disciples of Wudang.
...
These individuals were closely matched in strength; none had a clear advantage, and the outcome depended on their performance on the spot.
For a time, successive booming explosions and the roaring cheers of the audience rose to the skies.
Meanwhile, on the moon terrace of the Heavenly Palace, Li Pei was feasting with the highest echelons of the Yi Dynasty while enjoying the martial arts competition.
At this moment, Great Grandmasters like Zhang Wenda, Zuo Gong, Wen Taiji, Miao Zhen, and Master Wuqing watched the grand spectacle and couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
“These are all seeds of Great Grandmasters, a wealth of talent indeed. In just a few short years, the Great Yi Dynasty has soared high,”
“Prodigies emerge one after another. Our Great Yi Dynasty already possesses some of the air of an ‘Immortal Dynasty’!”
“Perhaps we may witness such a grand event within our lifetimes.”
…
Just as the Great Grandmasters expressed their excitement, they raised their cups to Li Pei in unison, “We salute Your Majesty’s ascension to Great Grandmaster.”
Li Pei laughed and drained her cup. However, the liquid was but ordinary for those present, its significance purely symbolic.

She waved to Zhang Jin at her side.
Zhang Jin immediately stepped forward, carefully holding a jade wine jar, and filled the cups of the Great Grandmasters.
In an instant, a rich aroma filled the air, and several Great Grandmasters even showed signs of intoxication!
Little in the world could induce this feeling in them, and they instantly realized this was no ordinary wine!
This was the “Immortal Brew” created by Liao Ya.
The Xuan Gui Great Saint had provided plenty of “Tianyi Divine Water” as raw material, and with two pregnant women at home who couldn’t drink, it seemed wasteful for the “Immortal Brew” to lose its essence over time.
Better to share such divine substance with the high-ranking officials of the empire.
Raising her cup, Li Pei said, “Today, the pillars of our nation have gathered together. My heart is filled with joy. Let everyone drink to their fill.”
The audience lifted their cups with both hands, eager to down the contents. They were immediately overwhelmed by the potent liquor, and the place fell silent.
After a long while, they opened their eyes and exhaled deeply.
They had all felt the profound effects of the “Immortal Brew” and now bowed in gratitude together, “Thank you for Your Majesty’s generous gift. We are deeply grateful.”
The Great Grandmasters hadn’t experienced the sensation of intoxication in a long time. With the novelty of it all, the atmosphere suddenly became much warmer.
Unnoticed by anyone, the Epang Palace subtly trembled.
~~~~~~~~~~
It turns out, Lu Yao had exhausted his Divine Thought and instead used the power of wishes to fuel his Magical Treasure.
While the world was abuzz with excitement, he was quietly cultivating alone, preparing to venture into the Xuanhuang Realm.
He immersed his entire being in the essence, rapidly recovering his depleted energy, while contemplating in his mind:
“I’ve ignited 385 Nuclear Fusion Acupoints. According to my plan, I’m short by 15 more.”
“Divine Thought tearing through space needs 0.9 seconds of preparation… not good enough, I must compress it to within 0.3 seconds. Otherwise, against a true expert, I won’t have the time to execute it, nor will my attack land.”
Lu Yao had two trump cards: an enhanced version of “Supreme Taiyi Thunderclap Hand” and “Spatial Shatter.”
He placed high hopes on the latter and invested a lot of effort into it.
About a quarter of an hour later, thanks to the miraculous effects of the essence, both body and soul were rejuvenated.
“`
Lu Yao withdrew his wish power and instead steered “Epang Palace” with his own divine thought.
The strain on the divine soul was immense, making the palace float in the sky, causing waves of dizziness in his mind.
Although it was uncomfortable, it was like the ultimate deadlift or bench press for refining the divine soul, with excellent effects.
Of course, the key was having “spirit mechanisms” as an assist, which could rapidly restore one’s state. Lu Yao steadily and strategically advanced towards his goal.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
After three days passed, jubilant cheers and applause suddenly broke out from outside; the champions of the martial arts competition must have emerged.
Indeed, Li Pei sent a mind communication: “My Lord, the competition has ended. Zhu Beneng and Fu Fangsheng each won the championship.”
“I know, I’ll be right there. It’s the perfect time to test the fruits of my recent cultivation.”
Lu Yao’s figure blurred and vanished in an instant.
In front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, one hundred Blood-Exchange Warriors and ten Innate Grandmasters stood proudly.
They were the victors of the competition, and as champions, Fu Fangsheng and Zhu Beneng rightly stood at the forefront of their respective lines.
Amid the flashes of countless cameras, Li Pei personally presented them with prizes and “medals.”
The medals were palm-sized with the design of a dragon patterned jade, an honor that could serve as a family heirloom.
Just then, everyone’s vision blurred as Lu Yao suddenly appeared at the scene.
The atmosphere exploded with fervor as 200,000 people cheered in unison, “Lord Lu Tian has arrived!”
Amidst the intensely eager expressions of the crowd, Lu Yao said to the two champions, “Congratulations to you both.”
As he spoke, he lifted a hand and infused each with two units of spirit mechanisms.
To Lu Yao, this was nothing, but for facing Heavenly Tribulation and the Sun God Realm, these resources caused Zhu Beneng and Fu Fangsheng to react intensely.
One touched his tongue to his upper palate and bridged the heavens and earth on the spot, breaking through to the Innate Realm; the other’s acupoints shimmered like stars as they instantly ignited a flame of True Qi, advancing to the Leakless Realm.
Right before everyone’s eyes, exclamations arose one after another:
“They both broke through a major realm at the same time! Is this the power of spirit mechanisms?”
“Look, their auras are substantial and their energies are surging. This is no forcible growth; it’s a true advancement!”
“I wish I could take their place!”
But more astonishing events were to follow, as Lu Yao took out a strange object resembling a gas cylinder, marked with a radioactive symbol, an old-fashioned “atomic bomb” from the Einheit Fleet, with a 20,000-ton yield. It was meant to bomb the Yi Dynasty but was now being used by Lu Yao at this moment.
“Let this wish everyone a Happy New Year,” he said.
Without any external aid, Lu Yao’s divine thought triggered a chain reaction in the atomic bomb he held, creating a terrifying nuclear fireball in an instant!
At the same time, his divine thought, powerful enough to tear space, transformed into an impregnable invisible shield, encompassing the energy of the atomic bomb within it.
He even controlled the intensity of the reaction, allowing it to slowly release light and radiation.
Thus, a glowing “crystal sun” appeared in the arena, not only radiating light but also exuding an Indestructible Will. This terrifyingly powerful divine thought, capable of suppressing an atomic bomb, was the result of Lu Yao’s recent cultivation.
At that moment, those who had experienced something similar the previous year immediately alerted their relatives, “This is the heavenly lamp! Quick! Start absorbing now, or it will be too late!”
People rushed forward, competing to absorb the energy as much as they could.
Those qualified to be here were no ordinary folks; the ones with higher cultivation could get closer while those with insufficient strength were held back by the high temperature and radiation.
For a time, the only sound in the entire square in front of the palace was that of breathing exercises.
Lu Yao then turned to the stage and conversed happily with several Great Grandmasters.
At this time, Bai Lu, bathed in the light of the “crystal sun,” looked at Lu Yao’s figure with complex emotions.
She and Lu Yao, or to be precise, his women, were no longer in the same world.
