Chapter 675 - 623: Reaching the Peak 32 (4,000 words)
"How can I compare with Fei Hu? It gets your loving massages every day, Sister Shuangshuang, and no matter how stiff its body is, it can recover. I don’t have that privilege, and my body is very tired, making it hard to continue cultivating," Tan Feiyu said enviously, looking at Fei Hu, whose paws were being massaged by Tan Shuangshuang, and he couldn’t help but feel that humans were not as fortunate as tigers.
"Fei Hu’s daily training intensity is the same as mine. If you train like Fei Hu, I’ll massage you too. Do you want to train with me tomorrow?" Tan Shuangshuang looked at the disgruntled Tan Feiyu and said calmly.
Tan Feiyu blushed, rubbed his nose, and said nothing. He didn’t want to undergo such high-intensity and harsh training methods with Tan Shuangshuang, the training fanatic, like Fei Hu.
Liang Ziqian sat on the side, looking at Tan Feiyu and Tan Shuangshuang’s interaction weakly, exhausted. He admired but was also somewhat unwilling to acknowledge Tan Shuangshuang’s strength, as he didn’t want to admit his own willpower was inferior to hers.
But the fact was that he was almost at his limit with this painful training method, and Tan Shuangshuang was not only managing with ease but had the energy to massage Fei Hu as well. Such strong willpower and endurance!
Following this, after training for another seven or eight days in Hurricane Valley, Tan Shuangshuang finally felt she was about to break through, but it was clear that Hurricane Valley was not a good place for a breakthrough.
Suppressing her urge to break through, Tan Shuangshuang took Fei Hu and rushed back to the safe outpost, not even having the chance to call out to Tan Feiyu and Liang Ziqian, and entered the alchemy tent.
As soon as she entered the alchemy tent, Tan Shuangshuang sat down on the ground and began madly absorbing nature’s spiritual energy, preparing to break through the Martial Master barrier. Due to her wide meridians and large Spirit Mansion, her degree of spirit energy compression was also powerful; thus, when she broke through the Martial Master level, the commotion she caused was comparable to that of a Great Martial Artist!
Above the alchemy tent where Tan Shuangshuang was, nature’s spiritual energy was surging madly into the tent in an inverted waterfall fashion, stirring the forces of nature into a massive whirlwind above the tent, looking extraordinarily majestic!
Many people returned to the safe outpost to break through their levels after training in Hurricane Valley, as reaching a critical point and breaking through was quite normal.
However, very few caused such a grand spectacle like Tan Shuangshuang did, so everyone in the safe outpost was alarmed.
Those who loved excitement were gathering in layers around Tan Shuangshuang’s tent to watch the commotion, intending to be the first to see what the cultivator who caused such a great disturbance looked like.
Of course, everyone knew that disturbing someone breaking through a level was not allowed, so no one spoke loudly. They only watched quietly from the side, and any occasional conversations were carried out using voice transmission techniques to avoid disturbing the person breaking through.
Tan Shuangshuang’s breakthrough directly took three days. During this time, Liang Ziqian and Tan Feiyu returned and stayed outside the tent to guard.
The commotion from Tan Shuangshuang’s breakthrough was so great that even the guards in the safe outpost were alarmed, checking the situation several times a day. However, no military general-level people were seen. After all, despite the misunderstanding of the noise as that of a Great Martial Artist, a mere Martial Master breakthrough wasn’t worthy of attention from someone at the General Level.
After Tan Shuangshuang finished her breakthrough, she walked out only to be stunned by the crowd watching her. Before she could react, Tan Feiyu rushed over excitedly, grabbing Tan Shuangshuang’s hand with immense excitement and said, "Sister Shuangshuang, you’ve broken through to the Martial Master level! That’s amazing!"
Liang Ziqian looked at Tan Shuangshuang, his expression still complex, but he too smiled slightly at her and said, "Congratulations, Sister Shuangshuang, on successfully advancing to the Martial Master level."
Tan Shuangshuang looked at Liang Ziqian, his eyes full of emotions she couldn’t be bothered to discern. Ever since breaking through to the Martial Master level, her feelings of restlessness caused by Liang Ziqian had subsided significantly, as if suppressed by her own cultivation level.
This allowed Tan Shuangshuang to face Liang Ziqian more calmly, no longer frustrated to the point of wanting to escape his influence, and able to communicate peacefully.
After chatting a bit with Liang Ziqian and others who had come to speak with her, Tan Shuangshuang prepared to return to the Tan Family. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to continue training in Hurricane Valley, but Hurricane Valley was only effective for those below the Great Martial Artist level.
Now that Tan Shuangshuang had broken through to Martial Master, she first needed to stabilize her realm and wasn’t suited to immediately continue with body training, as overtraining could easily harm the body.
Moreover, Hurricane Valley was only applicable for those below the Great Martial Artist level, and once Tan Shuangshuang stabilized her cultivation, her physical strength would be comparable to the peak level of a Great Martial Artist, rendering the training there useless for her. Naturally, Tan Shuangshuang wouldn’t continue wasting time there.
