Zhao Yu couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, “Damn, you acted so convincingly before, I thought you were really powerful. Turns out you’re just all show!”

With the Super Brain controlling his body, Zhao Yu naturally didn’t miss the opportunity to taunt.

He Yun, enraged by the comment, retorted, “What do you know? This is the upper class Yellow grade martial art, Life-Taking Sword, and I’ve already reached the minor achievement stage…”

Then he became somewhat perplexed, wondering why his minor achievement stage martial art was so easily dodged by the opponent?!

Could it be that the Life-Taking Sword was actually quite weak?!

The two continued to exchange insults.

Zhao Yu’s tactic of distracting his opponent seemed effective, nearly catching He Yun off guard. However, limited by the level and stage of the Viper Kick Technique, it didn’t cause significant damage to He Yun.

The more they fought, the more astonished He Yun became. He could tell that the techniques used by his opponent were only lower class Yellow grade, and none had reached the minor achievement stage. The strongest seemed to be the movement technique, which appeared to be at a masterful stage.

In contrast, his weakest techniques were upper class Yellow grade, with mastery or even minor achievement stages.

Even so, his opponent easily parried him and had the spare capacity to counterattack.

This shocked him profoundly, even leading him to wonder if he had been practicing fake techniques.

Soon, he quickly realized that it wasn’t about the techniques; it was the person using them.

“What exactly are you ancient martial artists do and how can you bring out such strong effects from such low-level techniques?!”

He Yun asked, somewhat curiously.

Naturally, Zhao Yu wouldn’t reveal the existence of the Super Brain.

He casually fabricated, “Heh, you commoners, do you know that we descendants of ancient martial arts cultivate the ‘insight’? Once the mind’s eye is developed, one can see through all the flaws in any technique…”

Insight?!

He Yun was astounded, believing the explanation.

Only such an explanation could satisfy him.

“Can I cultivate it?!”

“You?”

Zhao Yu chuckled sarcastically, “Those who can cultivate the insight are one in a million even among ancient martial artists. Someone like you, placed in the outside world, wouldn’t even qualify to be an ancient martial artist!”

He Yun fell silent, finally coming to his senses, realizing that these ancient martial artists were beyond his reach. He stopped insisting and focused on the fight.

At this moment, a sparse sound suddenly came from the forest in the distance.

The fight between the two abruptly ceased as they simultaneously turned to look in a certain direction.

This was a first-tier area, where the weakest monsters were king-level!

Neither of them cared about continuing their fight. Sticking close to the protective film, they chose a direction and fled swiftly.

Zhao Yu initially thought of following He Yun, but upon reflection, he realized that following him would be disadvantageous.

After all, the king-level monster from the zero-tier area was targeting him. Following He Yun would mean that monsters from the first-tier area would also join the pursuit.

Facing a pincer attack from two king-level monsters would surely spell death.

With the Super Brain’s vision pushed to its limits, Zhao Yu was relieved to see that the creatures from the first-tier area’s jungle did not pursue him but instead followed He Yun.

This eased his concerns.

As he moved, the two-headed ox snake monster outside the protective film also started to follow Zhao Yu’s pace.

“Truly inescapable!”

Zhao Yu cursed but it was futile; he had no choice but to run as fast as he could.

Fortunately, running close to the protective film, he didn’t encounter any monsters along the way.

As for what happened to He Yun, Zhao Yu had no idea. Maybe he was killed instantly by a first-tier monster, or perhaps he had already escaped back to the zero-tier area.

None of that mattered now.

“Roar—I”

At that moment, a series of roars echoed from the high skies in the distance.

Zhao Yu slowed down, stopping to look up.

He saw two massive creatures attacking each other in the sky several kilometers away.

Even from such a distance, Zhao Yu could feel a strong oppressive force.

“Super Brain, calculate the size of those two monsters.”

Quickly, the Super Brain provided an estimate.

Both creatures had wingspans between fifteen to twenty meters and were more than eight meters long.

Terrifying!

These were definitely not ordinary first-tier monsters!

Turning to look at the two-headed ox snake monster, it was evident from its eyes filled with fear. It unconsciously retreated several tens of meters away from the protective film.

Zhao Yu dared not even breathe heavily. He found a large tree nearby and hid under it.

At this moment, he didn’t dare to observe anymore and stayed hidden, motionless, hoping the two massive creatures in the sky would leave soon.

As if his prayers were heard, the two massive creatures moved further away, and the sounds gradually faded.

Zhao Yu finally let out a sigh of relief.

He realized his entire body was soaked, drenched in sweat.

“I wonder if those two creatures were elite class monsters or commander-level monsters of the first-tier…”

He didn’t dwell on the question. Zhao Yu felt overwhelming fatigue.

After all, he had fought with the Eight Desolations Alliance, been chased by the King-level monster and fought with He Yun.

After such a day, his stamina was completely depleted, and it was only the Super Brain’s control that kept him from collapsing.

Now controlling his body himself, he felt sore and utterly drained.

Using vision, he quickly found a hollow tree.

He carved a small hole, crawled inside, and then covered the entrance with branches before falling into a deep sleep.

When he woke up, it was already dark.

The Super Brain informed him that he had slept for nearly sixteen hours, and it would be daylight soon.

With an empty stomach, but feeling much more energized, Zhao Yu first scanned his surroundings with the vision to ensure safety before moving the debris and crawling out of the tree hole.

The first thing he saw upon landing was the two-headed ox snake monster lying on the other side of the protective film, staring at him with its large bull eyes, watching his every move.

“Truly relentless!”

Zhao Yu resigned himself, understanding why people from the zero-tier area were afraid to return to the newbie zone. Being targeted by such a king-level monster, anyone else would have died long ago.

[Environmental restrictions lifted. Would you like to spend one hundred technology points to use a first-tier genetic enhancement potion for?]

I can break through to the first-tier now?!

Zhao Yu was momentarily stunned, realizing there were no restrictions in this first-tier area.

However, his technology points were long depleted, and even if he could break through, he had no means to do so.

Of course, even if he had one hundred technology points now, he wouldn’t dare to rush the breakthrough.

With his current strength, returning to the zero-tier area posed little danger.

On the contrary, if he advanced to the first-tier, he wouldn’t be able to return, and facing first-tier monsters, even elite ones, would risk his life.

“So, there’s no rush to break through to the first-tier. At the very least, I should elevate these few upper class Yellow grade and that one lower class Mystery grade martial arts to at least a master level, or even minor achievement level, right?”

During his fight with He Yun, he observed everything.

Although he easily dodged He Yun’s attacks with the Super Brain’s help, he knew if it were up to him, he wouldn’t stand a chance and would likely die under He Yun’s sword.

This showed how important a higher-level martial art and a higher-level stage were when physical abilities were equal.

Standing in front of the tree hole, Zhao Yu glanced at the two-headed ox snake monster and began to plan his next move.

“I can’t stay in this first-tier area forever; it’s too dangerous. Any random monster could kill me…”

“So, I need to go back, preferably find a monster den, and take the opportunity to hunt some monsters to replenish my technology points…”

After much consideration, Zhao Yu decided to return and accumulate some technology points first..
