At one moment, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
Immediately after, a powerful energy surged into his limbs and bones.
The intense influx of energy caused his body to tremble violently, and a stream of heat raged through his body.
His body suddenly expanded significantly, his skin turning a pale blue, his legs becoming thick and sturdy, like iron rods.
His clothes instantly shattered, revealing his robust physique!
A formidable aura emanated from him.
Ye Ningze felt his strength increase immensely, and his mental will had also reached a certain level.
His mental attack power had also improved considerably!
This potent offensive capability gave him the feeling that he could now handle opponents who had already reached the Grandmaster level!
His heart was filled with immense joy!
"Excellent!"
Ye Ningze shouted inwardly with excitement.
Simultaneously, his mental will had made further progress, reaching a peak level!
"I must attempt to break through to the Grandmaster level!"
*Boom!*
Ye Ningze slammed his fist onto the ground.
*Thud!*
A dull sound echoed.
A fist imprint was formed on the ground, and Ye Ningze felt his punch filled with power.
However, he could not relax now.
He needed to properly refine the power contained within the essence blood in his body!
A smile curved Ye Ningze's lips: "Is this the Grandmaster realm? So strong! So strong!"
Ye Ningze knew that what he needed to do was to cultivate diligently. As long as he could advance to the Grandmaster level, his strength would increase again, and he would have the confidence to face those three Grandmasters!
"Now, I need to consolidate my strength first!"
Ye Ningze took a deep breath and then sat cross-legged on the ground.
His task was simple: to thoroughly temper the true essence within his body!
The power contained within his body was immense. Although he had already reached the peak of the Elite Warrior level, his body still struggled to withstand the impact of this vast power.
Therefore, he needed to quickly refine the power within him, absorb and refine it completely, allowing his body to perfectly control this immense energy.
This time, Ye Ningze would refine all the essence and convert it entirely into his true essence!
With his strength further increased, he was confident that if he encountered a Grandmaster, he would surely be able to defeat them!
This would be like an extra life-saving charm, giving him a greater chance of escape in times of danger!
Not long after, Ye Ningze opened his eyes.
He let out a long sigh. This breakthrough had given him a deeper understanding of his own strength.
Now, it was no exaggeration to say that he was like a berserk bull!
With a thought, he collected the essence blood into his backpack.
Then, he consumed the golden-scaled poisonous dragon python meat, preparing to break through to the Grandmaster level here.
Of course, his goal would not stop at the Grandmaster level.
One day, he would surely break through to a strength beyond the Grandmaster!
However, for now, he needed to reach this level to deal with the current situation. Once he reached the Grandmaster level, he would no longer fear ordinary Grandmasters!
Ye Ningze closed his eyes, continuously circulating the true essence within his body to refine and absorb the energy contained in the essence blood.
During this process, he dared not relax or let his guard down.
He had to ensure his state was at its optimal.
Otherwise, in this great battle, he would inevitably be placed in the most disadvantageous position.
Ye Ningze continuously absorbed the energy contained within the essence blood, while also expelling all impurities from the essence blood, making his essence blood exceptionally pure.
This, in turn, further enhanced his strength!
Meanwhile, on the other side, the people from First Academy had fallen into a state of near madness.
The elite warrior from their own academy had been publicly killed by Ye Ningze. This was a tremendous humiliation for the people of First Academy, and everyone wanted to retaliate fiercely against Ye Ningze.
These individuals were frantically searching for Ye Ningze, wanting to skin him alive and tear him limb from limb.
But Ye Ningze had no time to bother with them; his attention was entirely focused on cultivation.
During this period, his mental will had been tightly locked onto the energy he possessed within his body.
As time passed.
The immense energy within his body was gradually refined and absorbed, transforming into his true essence power.
After refining that vast energy, Ye Ningze's realm began to steadily break through.
It was known that many elite warriors could not break through to the Grandmaster realm in their entire lives, primarily due to their inherently poor talent.
Fortunately, Ye Ningze did not have such worries.
His innate talent was strong enough, so he had no such concerns, and his strength continued to break through.
The people from First Academy were also not idle. They began to frantically search for Ye Ningze's whereabouts, and even two instructors who had reached the early Grandmaster stage had joined the search for Ye Ningze.
Of course, even within First Academy, not everyone wished for Ye Ningze's swift demise.
Those who acted this way were instructors with connections to the Li family.
And those two martial artists who had reached the early Grandmaster stage were precisely two elders of the Li family!
Regarding the death of their own disciples at the hands of that damned brat Ye Ningze, these two elders were filled with boundless rage.
They wished they could kill Ye Ningze immediately and avenge their disciples!
Although Ye Ningze was unaware that the Li family had dispatched a large group of people to search for him, he felt a sense of urgency after defeating the martial artist from First Academy.
He had long known that in this world, only strength reigned supreme. If you did not possess sufficiently formidable strength, no one would bother you, no matter what you did.
The moment he decided to attack the people from First Academy, Ye Ningze had resolved not to leave Sunset Forest until his strength broke through to the Grandmaster realm.
