Chapter 36 Saber Art Level 30
As he felt the ‘evil wind’ attacking him from behind, Zhao Gao calmly dodged to the side.
Then he drew the saber from his left and used it to block the arrows coming from his right rear.
“Ding! Ding! Ding!”
The entire field was filled with the sound of arrows colliding with the saber. After all the arrows had been shot out, Zhao Gao waited for Ma Feifei to pick up the arrows and fill the quiver once more. They then started another round of training.
Round after round, until two hours later, when Ma Feifei no longer had the strength to move, the training stopped and she rested.
“Alright, you rest. I still have to train for a while.” Zhao Gao decided to continue training as it was only 2000 hours. “Sure,” Ma Feifei nodded while breathing heavily. She walked to a corner by the wall and sat down immediately to rest. After Ma Feifei left, Zhao Gao stood where he was and practiced the basic saber techniques for another hour.
Thereafter, he began to practice his unique “Slash” technique.
He closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and mobilized all his strength.
“Slash!”
He pulled back his strength, raised his large saber, and adjusted his aura again. “Slash!”
He practiced again and again, until his right hand began to ache, 30 minutes later. He then switched to his left hand and continued training
“Slash!”
Each time, Zhao Gao would try his best to mobilize all his strength and focus on the movement of slashing. It was only by practicing the slashing movement a million times could he master the desired effect.
If a million times was not enough, he would do it a billion times. One day, he would be able to deliver his own “23rd Saber”.
Zhao Gao only stopped to rest at 10 pm.
As he sat in a corner by the wall, Zhao Gao opened the system interface and began to add points to his skills, before going to bed.
“Storage EXP: 3784 708”
As he looked at his current EXP points, Zhao Gao thought for a moment and made a decision.
He decided to upgrade his Basic Saber Art to Intermediate Saber Art.
As he did not have sufficient Evolution points at the moment, he had to wait until his Character Stats reach Level 10 tomorrow. He would receive an Evolution point reward then. Hence, Zhao Gao decided to first upgrade his Basic Saber Art to Level 30. After increasing the level of his Character stats tomorrow, he should have enough evolution points to break through to Intermediate Saber Art.
His saber technique would only undergo a qualitative change when he advanced from the basic level to the intermediate level. That was how Zhao Gao could then be confident of surviving this war.
After deciding on his plan, Zhao Gao immediately began to upgrade his Basic Saber Art.
“Basic Saber Art upgraded successfully!”
“Level 28 (788 320)”
“Level 29 (879 080)”
“Level 30 (976 560)”
“Remaining EXP: 1 140 748”
At this point, the upgrade of the Basic Saber Art stopped.
The remaining EXP points were insufficient to increase the level of his breathing technique. He did not feel the need to increase the levels of his other skills as well, so he decided to keep the EXP points.
Zhao Gao then closed his system interface and stood up to look around. From afar, he saw that Ma Feifei was still training her archery skills.
“It’s getting late. You should go back and rest. Rest well so that you can be in a better state to train tomorrow, Zhao Gao advised her.
“Alright, I’ll be right there.” Ma Feifei wiped the perspiration off her forehead, and placed her bow and arrow on the weapon rack. She then ran to Zhao Gao’s side.
As he watched her run over, he noticed that her beautiful cheeks were flushed from the strenuous exercise.
At this moment, Zhao Gao suddenly realized that he was attracted to her again.
“Endure! Endure!” Zhao Gao quickly shook his head to kill this dangerous thought.
“Let’s go!” Zhao Gao pretended to be calm on the outside and walked out of the field. As for Ma Feifei, she followed behind Zhao Gao like a compliant wife.
After leaving the field, Zhao Gao walked towards his military tent.
“See you tomorrow,” he said. “Okay, see you tomorrow.” Ma Feifei was shocked. She had thought that Zhao Gao would see her back to the tent, and that was why he had waited for her to leave together.
She did not expect that Zhao Gao was genuinely telling her to go back and rest, and he had no ulterior motive.
She stared blankly at Zhao Gao’s departing figure.
After a while, she stamped her feet and muttered to herself, “Silly man, you deserve to be single!”

Zhao Gao, who had walked far away by now, naturally did not know that Ma Feifei was complaining about him. He just followed his logical understanding that they should return to their respective tents after saying goodbye.
When he returned to his military tent, he glanced at his four roommates who were already asleep. Zhao Gao did not bother about them.
He took off his armor, lay down on the small bed, and pulled up the thin straw blanket.
“Hmph!” Actually, this straw blanket did not matter at all.
With Zhao Gao’s current level of physical fitness at 20 points, even if he were to sleep in a temperature below 10 degrees Celsius, he would not catch a cold.
Covering himself with a blanket while sleeping was just a habit he had for years.
As he closed his eyes and thought about this, Zhao Gao drifted to sleep.
The night passed in a flash. “Dong! Dong! Dong!”
The drums that served as an alarm rang out again. Zhao Gao started to get out of bed.
He quickly put on his armor. Like a gust of wind, he sped towards the latrine in the field.
“Phew! That feels good!” Zhao Gao closed his eyes and enjoyed the refreshing feeling of emptying his bladder.
After that, he left the latrine and waited for Chiliarch Yu to arrive.
“Hey! Zhao Gao.” Ma Feifei suddenly pat Zhao Gao on the shoulders.
Zhao Gao turned around, and saw Ma Feifei smiling and greeting him warmly.
When he saw her looking like this, Zhao Gao had no choice but to pour cold water on her. “Don’t pat my shoulders from behind next time. Your Black Stone Fist skill level isn’t high, so you might not know.”
“If I hadn’t known it was you, my body would have automatically grabbed your wrist and dislocated your joint the instant you pat me. At the same time, my other hand would have made a dragon claw and crushed your throat.”
“The whole process wouldn’t take more than half a second, and you’d be dead.”
After saying all these, Zhao Gao stared at her throat. It was as though he was thinking about what would be the easiest way to crush it.
“Heh… Heh.” Ma Feifei smiled awkwardly and took two steps back. She quickly used her right hand to cover her neck to block Zhao Gao’s gaze.
“It’s… it’s not that serious right?” she asked awkwardly.
Zhao Gao continued to stare at her neck and asked coldly, “What do you think?”
“Sigh! I know. I’ll pay more attention next time. Besides, aren’t we teammates? I believe that you won’t treat me like this.” Ma Feifei quibbled and tried to get through this by acting coy.
As an appreciator of beauty, Zhao Gao was certainly not immune to her coyness.
He could only force himself not to react, and turning around, he said, “Chiliarch Yu is here. Get in line and prepare to gather for training.”
“Aye! All right. From now on, I’ll stand beside you. You shall watch my back from now on,” Ma Feifei quipped.
Zhao Gao did not have the time to bother about her. After Chiliarch Yu gave the order to gather, he quickly got into formation.
“Gather!”
“Get your bows and arrows and start cross-practice shooting the target.”
Everyone ran quickly to the weapons rack, picked up their bows and arrows, and ran to the front of the targets.
After getting into the formation of 300 people per line, they began their morning training under the command of Chiliarch Yu.
“Aim!”
“Shoot!”
“Change!” “Aim!”
