I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Many powerful forces were not optimistic about Lin Yao. They felt that he might need several years or even 10 years to advance to a gold warlord.

They were not looking down on him. It was just that the path to becoming a gold warlord was not easy. It was difficult to master the gold combat skills, not to mention to meet the threshold of such combat skills.

Most people could reach the first four realms of combat skills through diligent studying and hard training. As long as one could get started with the gold combat skill, one would achieve real success through hard work.

It might take years, but at least there was a way of achieving it.

However, there was no straightforward way to achieve the profoundness that was a realm higher than real success. Profoundness was illusory and required a certain amount of comprehension ability, talent, and luck, which made it impossible for many people to work on it.

As for the final transcendence, it was even more difficult. To reach that realm, one needed to fully understand all the combat skills one had learned and to master all the essence. However, this was not enough. One would only achieve 100% profoundness to completely master the combat skills.

Other than mastering the combat skill, it was also necessary to innovate and make this combat technique one’s own. Only this way could it be regarded as transcendence and be engraved into the blood and aura gold elixir.

Even if one comprehended the profound meaning and reached one of the first few realms, the combat skill was not theirs. It would only belong to the person when they reached the final realm.

However, it was very difficult to take this step. A martial artist who could innovate and create his own combat skills could already be called a combat skill master.

‘It’s almost unrealistic to practice a profound meaning alone while hoping to innovate things with it. Normally, one will master several profound meanings before choosing the most familiar and suitable one and using the essence of other profound meanings for reference and integration in the process of in-depth studying to create something that belongs to them alone.’

If one was not experienced and knowledgeable, one could not innovate based on the original skill.

When one learned 300 poems of the Tang Dynasty by heart, even if one could not write poetry, one would still be able to recite it. This applied to the training of martial arts skills as well.

The practice of a combat skill was a cycle of going from simple to complex, and finally, from complex to simple.

Of course, before one became a silver warlord, the focus would still be on cultivation and training. When one was a silver warlord, one could no longer improve one’s physical fitness. Instead, one had to nurture the soul, and this was the time to comprehend the combat skill.

It might seem that a silver warlord did not need to improve their physical fitness and could easily advance. However, due to the difficulty of comprehending combat skills, many people were stuck in this realm. There were even geniuses who were stuck in this realm for several years.

Lin Yao was a super-genius in the physical aspect, but in the eyes of others, he’d only comprehended one profound meaning (Guardian holy seal—holy garment. The gene lock was comprehended through the stimulation caused by thunder and lightning. According to others, he did not comprehend it based on his comprehension ability). His comprehension was only at the level of ordinary genius, and it was normal to be stuck in the realm of a silver warlord for several years, or even 10.

Those people were right. In the past, Lin Yao would have done this, especially since he felt indignant about using gold combat skills as his gold foundation. This way, he might need more than 10 years to practice a diamond or king combat skill to the realm of transcendence.

However, he had undergone several transformations.

Of course, there was no need to talk about this now.

After getting up and checking himself, Lin Yao found that not only had he advanced to an intermediate warlord, he had also recovered totally. Hence, he got up and prepared to leave.

“Ss… You… You are already well enough to leave?!!”

“You are… When you were next to me just now, you still had the energy to talk. That’s very good.”

“Damn, I ended up being mocked by you. Alright, I was wrong just now. I was blind not to notice that you are a super-genius.”

People with thunder talent would reach their limits after in-depth development, and they needed to recuperate. The research institute naturally understood this, so a special nursing room had been set up there.

In order to facilitate management, most of the patients in a nursing room were the same batch of students who were undergoing development.

Everyone in the room noticed that Lin Yao stood up leisurely. There was horror and envy on their faces, and gasps of surprise were heard from time to time.

They had heard of Lin Yao’s feat from the nurse. He had endured for two hours, and they understood the horror of it.

It was precisely because they understood the pain that they could not believe it after seeing that Lin Yao had recovered and could already leave.

“He recovered in such a short time! I came over an hour and a half earlier than him, but it’s still hard for me to move around freely.”

“That’s already considered good. I’m still trembling all over.”

“Don’t talk about it. The gap between people is so damn big. I feel ashamed to face others!”

“Take it easy. As far as I know, he has persisted with low-level development for the longest time. It’s not that special that he was the first to recover now. Look, I don’t envy him. I really don’t envy him.”

“Well, Lin Yan, your face is really hideous. All the juniors brothers have been scared away by you.”

“I look hideous? What a joke, I don’t envy him. I don’t envy him at all!”

“…”

While everyone was envious of Lin Yao, he too felt that they were very strong. Although there were few people with thunder talent in Ninghai City, he had seen them a couple of times. Not only did they not persist in the development, but they also lay down for a long time after the development. Although it was difficult to move around, the people there were all trying hard. This was a display of the power of elites.

Therefore, what he’d said just now was how he really felt.

Lin Yao had come to the nursing room an hour and a half later than the rest of them but had recovered earlier than them. Although Lin Yao, who had fully recovered, praised them for being powerful, to them, it sounded like he was mocking them.

Seeing that the senior brother named Lin Yan had a look of envy on his face while looking upset at the same time, Lin Yao stopped provoking them and turned to leave.

The fully recovered Lin Yao was about to leave the research institute. However, he had just walked past the Radiance Array in the hall when he had a big shock.

‘How is it possible? It’s already evening, so why is the light energy over here not much different from that at noon?’

As the earth rotated, the distance between a certain place and the sun was constantly changing, which also made the brilliance of the sun constantly change during the day.

The biggest part of this change could be seen through the fact that sunlight was the strongest at noon and decreased in the early morning and evening. Lin Yao could clearly feel this change due to the Armored Body Of Light’s sensitivity to light.

However, at that moment, Lin Yao found that the power of sunlight in the Radiance Array had not diminished at all compared to noon, which meant that Lin Yao was recovering faster here.

Of course, this was not what he was interested in. He looked around, and soon, Lin Yao found the senior sister who had put electrode patches on him.

“Senior Sister Gui Xin, thank you for your help just now.”

“It’s alright, this is my job. Junior Brother, it was so brave of you to hold on for two hours.”

The senior sister with the name “Gui Xin” written on the tag on her chest was very enthusiastic as she talked to Lin Yao. After chatting for a while, Lin Yao asked what he was the most concerned about.

“Senior Sister, it’s already evening here. Why doesn’t the light energy change much?”

“It’s because we have adjusted it, of course.” After a random reply, she soon thought of something and said with a smile, “Are you trying to ask whether the Radiance Array will still be here at night?”

Realizing that the senior sister could tell what was on his mind, Lin Yao nodded repeatedly while admiring the cleverness of the people there.

Gui Xin smiled at his nodding movement and soon told Lin Yao something that made him almost jump up in joy.

“The Radiance Array with the sun disc as its core has the ability to gather the power of the sun. In addition to gathering that power, it also regulates and stores it. Therefore, if needed, it can be opened 24 hours a day.”

‘It can really be turned on 24 hours a day! If I am here, I can constantly go through in-depth power development!’

Lin Yao coveted the Radiance Array, but he soon noticed a problem with Senior Sister Gui Xin’s reply.

“If needed? What does that mean?”

“It’s just that you don’t usually need it. There are not many people with thunder talent who can redeem enough points. Sometimes they don’t turn on the array during the day, and the collected light energy will be transferred to other places. Of course, you can apply to use it at night, but it costs a lot to apply by yourself.”

‘In the end, it’s still about money.’

After hearing Senior Sister Gui Xin’s explanation, Lin Yao thought of something upsetting. He did not have any points in the University of Monster Science and Technology. He could not book it himself at night, nor would he even be able to come by himself during the day tomorrow.

He was dealt a harsh blow by the fact that he was poor, and he felt very disheartened.

“Thank you, Senior Sister.”

Worried about money and points, Lin Yao walked out of the research institute with a distressed look.

Yan Yu’er, Qin Xue, and the others who were waiting at the entrance were shocked to see Lin Yao in this state.

“What’s wrong, Ah Yao? Did the development not go well?”

“It has nothing to do with that. I just realized that I am a poor man.”

“Uh… I still have some money.”

“I can ask my parents for some money…”

Seeing that Lin Yao was feeling upset over money, Qin Xue and the others tried to raise money for Lin Yao on the spot.

Lin Yao felt warm inside upon seeing their behavior. Although he knew that the two twins did that because they were optimistic about his future, his mood quickly calmed down.

“No, what I lack is not pocket money. Go back and rest.”

Lin Yao sat in the car that Yan Yu’er had rented and called Senior Brother Song Ji to tell him that he had recovered. After doing that, he went to the apartment that they had rented.

On the way back, Qin Xue thought of something and hurriedly said, “Ah Yao, my cousin came looking for you half an hour ago.”

“What’s the matter?”

“It’s about the Flowery Sect’s competition tomorrow. She has collected some information and needs to update you.”

Lin Yao no longer lived with Qin Ya, but this did not mean that they had a bad relationship.

To be specific, the relationship between the two of them had reverted to a purely cooperative one. As Lin Yao’s manager, Qin Ya was naturally obliged to handle the competition for him, as well as everything related to him being a spokesperson.

In fact, he would leave all these things for Qin Ya to handle in the future.

However, that would be all. Lin Yao already planned to hand over the trivial matters in his life to personal assistants like Qin Xue and Yan Yu’er. They would help him with renting a house when they reached certain places, rent a car, buy train tickets, take care of his daily needs, and so on.

Qin Ya would handle any matters related to competitions, endorsements, and negotiations with other businessmen. After all, she was a professional in this regard.

‘I still lack a person who can be in charge of the foundation. However, this is related to my foundation, so I cannot find a random person.’

While he thought about his team, he nodded at Qin Xue. “Please connect me to Qin Ya.”

The car that Yan Yu’er had rented was a large nanny car. Lin Yao, who was sitting in the back seat, could use the computer while he drank some tea.

Of course, as a young man, he drank all kinds of drinks.

Soon, Qin Ya’s cool face appeared on the laptop screen in front of Lin Yao.

After Lin Yao had sorted out their working relationship and made things clear, she had quickly returned to her previous working style. This was the case now. After a greeting, she told him some of the information she had collected briefly.

“Tomorrow’s game is very important, so you better do your best.”

“You don’t need to remind me.”

As a provocateur, Lin Yao had to win in order to embarrass the Flowery Sect, thus forcing them to give in so he could accomplish his goals.

If he failed miserably, he would only be regarded as arrogant and overconfident.

“It’s good that you understand. Let’s talk about the competition now. There are many people in the sect that are worthy of being your opponents. However, this is not the time to say this. Watch videos of the past competitions of the Flowery Sect first.”

Lin Yao shook his head upon hearing this request.

“It is not necessary. The abilities of young geniuses change rapidly. The abilities they’ve had in the past few years cannot be used to judge their current abilities.”

“I’m not telling you to look at their abilities. What I want you to look at is the format of the game.”

“???”

Lin Yao was puzzled. What was so interesting about the format of the competition? It was simply an arena competition.

‘Don’t tell me the Flowery Sect is holding a team competition?’

Lin Yao frowned and opened the video sent by Qin Ya. Five minutes later, Lin Yao’s expression changed. The expression on his face changed from indifference to skepticism, as if he had seen something incredulous.

‘What the hell? Are you telling me this fancy thing is the Flowery Sect’s competition?’
