Chapter 36 Ranked on the prefecture-level list
Because of the breakthrough, Qi An's strength is several times greater than before, and the destructive power has increased a lot, and the war puppets that were directly hit are not just a slight pause, but directly fall to the ground and do not move, at least after a few breaths, they can recover their mobility, even those war puppets that were smashed away because of the collision, they can only move after at least one breath, and Qi An has already gone far at this time.
I saw that Qi An was like a fierce tiger out of the gate, unstoppable, with a random punch or kick, he could make several war puppets fall and lose their ability to act in a short period of time, and the thirty-six human-level war puppets couldn't even delay their steps.
Soon Qi An encountered a more powerful ground-level war puppet, the ground-level war puppet is much more powerful than the human-level war puppet, but he can't stand Qi An's huge force, and those who are directly hit by the fist will still be blown away, and even knock over the war puppet behind, but after being smashed away, the stiffness time is not long, and he can quickly stand up and continue to join the battle, and the knocked over war puppet will hardly stop.
Even a ground-level war puppet still couldn't stop Qi An's advance, and he could only slow down his speed by relying on numbers.
But in fact, Qi An can be faster, because the ground-level war puppet can't break his defense, he can completely go on a rampage regardless of it, and the weapon of the ground-level war puppet can only tear his clothes when it hits his body, and even the surface of his skin can't be broken, at most, the collision and transmission of power make his speed slow down slightly.
This is the strength of the body refining cultivator, the attack and speed may not be outstanding, but the defense ability is absolutely first-class, just like wearing treasure armor, not afraid of swords, it can be used to fight in the most brutal and ferocious way.
Of course, body refining cultivators also have weaknesses, in addition to the most critical slow cultivation speed, body refining cultivators are usually only good at hand-to-hand combat, lack long-range attack methods, and lack the ability to attack in a large area.
Qi An, who was strict with himself, did not rely on his physical strength to rush desperately, he even deliberately avoided being attacked by the weapons of the war puppets to the torso and head, and completely regarded himself as a physically fragile interlocutor, and carried out the test with the most stringent standards, so although Qi An was like a bamboo, he was inevitably slowed down by many prefecture-level war puppets.
Finally, when Qi An broke through all the obstacles of the war puppets and reached the end, it inevitably took a lot of time.
Qi An glanced back at the results on the bronze mirror, ninety-nine breaths, and the font was red.
It just so happened that the steward guarding the exit happened to be the one Qi An met when he rushed to the list last time, of course he knew Qi An, and he was still very impressed, so when he saw the results displayed on the bronze mirror, his eyes widened, and he could hardly even say a word.
The numbers on the bronze mirror represent time, and the font color represents the level of trial, black is human, red is earthly, and gold is heaven.
Qi An smiled brightly at the steward, clenched his fists and turned away, until his figure disappeared, the steward came to his senses, hurriedly reported the results, and rewrote the leaderboard.
Soon after, the ranking of Life and Death Lane was updated, and Qi An's name appeared impressively on the prefecture-level list, ranking third, with a time of ninety-nine breaths, second only to Gongsun Riyue and Bu Feng. At this point, the five positions on the prefecture-level list have finally been filled, and it is very rare for the backer branch to have five prefecture-level masters at the same time.
Not to mention the backer branches, it is difficult for the hundreds of branches of the entire Qianqing Academy to have five prefecture-level masters at the same time, and usually there are only one or two, or two or three prefecture-level masters in a branch.
As we all know, as long as you reach the level of the peak martial sect, you can try to break through, and if you succeed, you can become a condensing realm cultivator. But the success rate of the hasty breakthrough is not high, and as soon as he reached the peak, the martial arts sect set out to break through, and the success rate was only one percent. If it fails, it will cause a large amount of the original accumulated true qi in the body to be lost, and it will take a long time to meditate and breathe again to make up for it.
Therefore, the peak martial sects are very cautious about breaking through the realm, and they usually try it when the accumulation is deeper and the grasp is relatively large, otherwise once they fail, the consequences will be very serious, and it will take a lot of cultivation time to make up for it, which is not cost-effective.
If you want to break through the peak martial arts sect of the realm, you usually have at least fifty percent certainty, less than fifty percent, it is better to continue to accumulate and cultivate diligently, so that the true qi accumulated in the body is more powerful, because the more majestic the true qi, the greater the possibility of constructing a stable true yuan vortex, and the higher the success rate of breakthrough.
It's like building a house, the materials are too little to build, if the materials are barely enough, you can build it, but it is not stable, and it may collapse when the wind blows, if there are enough materials, and they are all solid and reliable good materials, then it is easy to build a house, and the built house is big and strong, and can live for many people, and can live for many years.
Constructing the True Qi Vortex in the dantian is equivalent to building a house, and the True Qi that has been cultivated over time is the material for building a house. The more powerful the True Qi in the body of the Peak Martial Sect when it breaks through, the higher the success rate, the more stable the True Qi Vortex will be, and the faster the True Qi will run, and the stronger the strength will be after the breakthrough.
The peak martial sects that are usually able to break through the earth-level life and death alley are already strong enough, and their level is not at all below the normal early stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, and even stronger, but because they can only mobilize part of the true element in the body, the power of the move is not as strong as that of the early stage of the Qi Condensing Realm. It's like I have a million copper coins, and you only have 800,000, but I can only use half of them to do business, but you can invest all of them, and I am not as good as you in terms of abundant funds.
If the peak martial arts sect of the strength of the land list tries to break through, the success rate will reach at least eighty percent, and many masters with the strength of the land list will not stay at this level for too long, so there are not many masters in each branch of the Qianqing Academy, and if they continue to accumulate, the highest success rate can only be pushed to ninety, no one dares to say that they can succeed 100 percent, and it is not meaningful to stay in the school for a long time to dominate the list, only boring people will do this.
And now, the Backer Branch actually has five powerhouses at the same time, which is probably the first time since it was built. After all, the founding of the Great Qian Dynasty is only more than 200 years old, and the Qianqing Dynasty was established only after the founding of the country, and the history of about 200 years at most is not too long, compared with those who claim to be the thousand-year-old inheritance of the great sect of cultivation, it is far behind.
After the ranking of Life and Death Lane was updated, more and more people saw Qi An's name, so Qi An became a topic of conversation after tea and dinner in less than two months.
There are probably two theories about Qi An's two consecutive rankings. One is that Qi An was originally a genius, otherwise it would be impossible to enter the backer branch at the age of thirteen, the reason why he was able to rush into the ground list and achieve good results is entirely because his talent is extremely high, his cultivation is extremely fast, two years is enough to make his strength improve rapidly, and it is natural to break through the ground-level life and death alley; , and then use all his strength to occupy a place in the prefecture-level list.
Both statements are supported, but absolutely no one could have imagined that Qi An had the strength to be on the prefecture-level list because he broke through the great realm, and even if someone knew the truth, no one would believe it. Cultivating from the new Martial Sect to the Qi Condensation Realm within two years, I am afraid that only those peerless geniuses of the powerful Cultivation True Sect can do it with the support of the various resources of the sect, and it is absolutely impossible in the small backer branch.
The purpose of the branch is not to cultivate the pillars of the country, but to create a large number of grassroots officials, so it is impossible for any imperial relatives to enter the Qianqing Academy, and they are basically folk warriors who have no prominent background. Like Ji Zhengyue, Qu Han, Xiang Fang and other three, their backgrounds are already very good, they are not the sons of wealthy businessmen, or the descendants of squires and wealthy families, or they are the young masters of the dart game.
Qi An is naturally not a mouthy person who likes to show off, he didn't report to the academy that he had broken through to the condensation realm at all, because the rules of the Qianqing Academy were that he had to stay for three years, and he had only been two years, even if he announced that he had become a monk, he still had to stay in the backer branch for one more year, in order to avoid trouble, he kept this secret, even if Ji Zhengyue asked them, they only said that he had a great understanding recently, which led to a big increase in strength.
Strength is not only determined by the realm of cultivation, but by many factors, which has caused the same peak martial arts, some can't even break through the human-level life and death alley, and some can cross the realm to defeat the monks, although there is a difference in the degree of true qi, but martial arts cultivation occupies a more important factor, and there may even be some other reasons.
The vast majority of the masters of the earth list, in addition to the true qi accumulation and active strength, the martial arts cultivation is usually also very high. Take Murong Qing as an example, his sword skills and attainments in the body of stepping on the moon and chasing stars are all much stronger than Qi An, after all, Qi An's main energy in the past two years has been focused on cultivating King Kong is not bad, and his study of martial arts and body techniques is not thorough enough, and it is even inferior to the peak martial arts sects of many ranks, and it is completely relying on the improvement of the basic attributes brought by the cultivation of King Kong to reach today's strength.
