I Can Level Up By Staying Idle

… .

At this moment.

Jiangnan Martial Arts University's training area, in the gravity room where Lin Mo was.

After the hour was added, Lin Mo only had a few minutes left in the gravity room.

But then—

"BOOM!!!"

Lin Mo suddenly felt a rumbling in his mind, followed by his entire soul shivering violently!

This was a tremble that truly originated from the soul!

Lin Mo felt that his soul and his thoughts seemed to have suddenly broken through the limit of his brain! Like a flood that had broken through a dam, they surged crazily into his limbs and bones.

Seeing this scene, Lin Mo immediately understood!

This was the sign of his combat technique reaching the "sixth rank"—spirit and flesh as one!

When one's combat technique reached this level, their soul would no longer be limited to their brain. Instead, it would spread throughout their body and fuse with their physical body!

Only by reaching "spirit and flesh as one" could one's control over the body truly reach the cell level!

For example, now, Lin Mo could "see" every cell of his body very clearly and even control them individually!

Directly controlling the entire body from the level of "single cells"… What precise control was this?

It was shocking to think about!

"Rank 6!" Lin Mo could completely feel the transformation of his strength.

At the "fifth rank" stage, although Lin Mo's control over his body had already changed from the macroscopic to the microscopic level, even at the peak of the fifth rank, his perception of his individual cells was still relatively blurry. He could not clearly sense a single cell, let alone control it accurately!

But now, Lin Mo had truly reached the level of "single cell" control!

His control over his body and the mobilization of his strength were completely qualitative breakthroughs! In terms of strength… it was more than double compared to when he was at the peak of the fifth rank!

If Lin Mo were to fight his "five-minute-old self" now, it would be like beating his son up!

'Easy!'

Of course, Lin Mo had only just entered the "sixth rank".

Although his control had already reached the level of a single cell, his stability is still a little lacking. It would take some time to truly control every cell in his body perfectly!

If Lin Mo's combat technique could reach the peak of the sixth rank, then with just a thought, the billions of cells in his body would instantly erupt together, and in the direction Lin Mo's will point… At that time, one could imagine how terrifying Lin Mo's strength would be!

"I've just entered the sixth rank. I'm still a long way from the peak of the sixth rank!" Lin Mo thought to himself. "I'm afraid it's a month or two away!"

After feeling the transformation of his strength, Lin Mo remembered to take a look at the time.

What he saw stunned Lin Mo.

"Holy sh*t! It's 7:58?"

There were less than two minutes before the eight o'clock challenge officially began!

BOOM!

Lin Mo rushed out of the gravity room.

"If I didn't go to the battle on time, wouldn't I be mocked to death?" Lin Mo sprinted all the way, feeling a little anxious. "I'm afraid many people are already flaming me now!"

If his opponent was another genius of Xia country, it would not be a problem for Lin Mo to be late or give up.

However, his opponent in this battle was Zuoteng Yijian from the Cherry Blossom Country! If Lin Mo hadn't arrived on time, who knows how ego inflated Cherry Blossom Country will be!

And Lin Mo was right!

At this moment, in the Primordial Universe, tens of millions of spectators were questioning whether he dared to fight. As for the martial artists from the Cherry Blossom Country, they were constantly jumping and clamoring.

"Black Earth? The number one genius on your Xia country's Genius List? He doesn't even dare to come for a challenge. I think he might as well change his name to Number One Trash in the future!"

"Even Black Earth is so timid, let alone the other nameless geniuses in Xia country!"

"Zuoteng Yijian is right. There are no geniuses in Xia country!"

… .

It was 7:59 PM and 45 seconds!

Just as the spectator area was filled with doubts, just as the martial artists of the Cherry Blossom Country were clamoring non-stop… Black Earth arrived late and finally logged into the Primordial Universe. Moreover, he rushed to the arena at the speed of light.

The entire venue fell silent.

"Black Earth is here!"

"It's already 7:59 PM and 50 seconds! There are only ten seconds left until the official start of the battle! He's cutting it close!"

"Black Earth must be feeling guilty for coming so late, right?"

"Black Earth definitely figured out the true strength of Zuoteng Yijian. He struggled and hesitated for a long time before deciding to fight at the last moment! After all… losing the challenge is better than giving up on the battle, right?"

"He knew that he would definitely lose, but he still dared to come to the battle! Black Earth has some courage!"

Although Black Earth had already entered the arena, almost no one in the spectator area thought highly of him.

After all… Zuoteng Yijian was too strong!

His combat technique could be considered top-notch even among martial arts graduate students!

As for Black Earth? He had just ended the martial arts college entrance examination!

One was the top strength of a martial arts masters student, and the other had just ended the martial arts college entrance examination… The difference between the two was too great!

No matter how heaven-defying Black Earth's talent was, could he use his talent to make up for the four year difference in skill level?

If this could be made up for by talent, what was the point of a martial arts university?

Therefore, it was only natural that almost no one thought Black Earth could win.

… .

"Black Earth!" Zuoteng Yijian finally opened his eyes. "You're finally here! I've been waiting for you for more than half an hour!"

"More than half an hour?" Lin Mo's expression was a little strange. "You've always maintained this posture?"

"That's right!" Zuoteng said with his sword.

For the past half an hour, he had been standing with his eyes closed and hands behind his back, motionless.

Although this posture was quite cool, Zuoteng Yijian actually felt a little bitter—he had thought that Black Earth would arrive soon, so he wanted to pose and show off.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for Black Earth to enter the arena, there were still tens of millions of people watching online. If Zuoteng Yijian moved his sword, he would fail his showing off!

It could be said that Zuoteng Yijian was in a difficult position. He could only hope that "Black Earth" could come earlier!

However, he never expected Black Earth to wait until the last moment to enter!

This half an hour was really quite tragic for Zuoteng Yijian.

"You really kept the pose?" Lin Mo was a little shocked. "Aren't your limbs numb?"

"It's numb!" Zuoteng Yijian smiled bitterly. He had finally broken through his defense. "Wait for me. My hands and feet are numb. Let me move around a little first…"

With that, Zuoteng Yijian ignored the gazes of tens of millions of viewers and began to move his limbs. It was not that he wanted to do this, but if he did not move them, his limbs would stay numb and he would really not be able to use much strength.

"…" Lin Mo was dumbfounded.

With this little strength, how dare he come out and show off?

Zuoteng Yijian quickly moved his limbs and recovered.

At that moment, he regained his arrogant posture. "Black Earth!"

Zuoteng Yijian looked straight at Lin Mo and sneered. He said proudly, "You should feel honored to be able to fight me!"

"I should feel honored?" Lin Mo, whose combat technique had already broken through to the "sixth rank", had no idea where Zuoteng Yijian's confidence came from.

"Logically speaking, you're not qualified for me to attack at all!" Zuoteng Yijian continued to speak ruthlessly, as if he was a senior looking at a junior. "After all, you're still too young. Perhaps in a few years, you'll be qualified for me to attack! But since you dare to shout a challenge in public, I'll show you the gap between us!"
