Pei Xuanjing looked at the other party with furrowed brows, rapidly recalling in his mind the information about the experts entering the forbidden place and blessed land provided by Guji, trying to figure out the origin of the woman in front of him.

He couldn’t help but be wary. With his own strength as a fourth-grade martial artist, he had already reached the realm of ‘sensing the wind before it blows.’ At least within a range of fifty meters, he could perceive every move.

Even if he was just too immersed in thought, it is not possible for an ordinary martial artist to get close to him, only about fifteen meters away, and he only noticed her when she spoke out.

This is not reasonable.

So, there is only one explanation, she is also a fellow fourth-grade martial artist, or she has practiced a secret method of concealing her presence.

The gallant woman looked at Pei Xuanjing’s furrowed brows and silent face, the look of surprise on her face subsided completely, and she greeted, “Li Yuzhen has seen brother Pei.”

Li Yuzhen.

Upon hearing this name, Pei Xuanjing immediately recalled her relevant information in his mind.

Li Yuzhen, the legitimate daughter of the Li Family of Longxi, twenty years old, a fifth-rank Martial Artist.

Despite being a woman, she has shown extraordinary talent in cultivation, a well-known heroine in the entire Northwest Dao.

Pei Xuanjing just did not expect that he would encounter such a proud daughter of a major power so quickly.

“I have seen Miss Second.” Since they have met, and she has been polite, Pei Xuanjing naturally responded in kind, “Listening to Miss Second, it seems that you know me.”

Li Yuzhen is second in rank in the Li family, and most people respectfully call her Second Miss.

This was mentioned in the news given to him by Guji.

However, Guji’s news seems to be a bit off, this Miss Second of the Li family seems to be not as simple as a fifth-rank martial artist.

Li Yuzhen smiled, “Brother Pei’S reputation, I believe no one who has come to Anping Prefecture does not know!”

Pei Xuanjing underestimated the speed of gossip spread in the martial world. Although he hasn’t been in Anping Prefecture for long, starting from his duel with Liu Ruilong, none of his actions have escaped the eyes of those interested.

Like these talented heroes from major powers, like Li Yuzhen, they would naturally collect information about their opponents in advance if they came to Anping Prefecture wanting to enter the forbidden lands, just like Guji did.

Upon hearing her words, Pei Xuanjing simply shook his head: “It’s just rumors.”

Li Yuzhen grinned and didn’t comment on Pei Xuanjing’s words.

However, Pei Xuanjing was curious about her previous words, asking, “What did Miss Second mean earlier?”

He did not understand what she meant when she said earlier, ‘I didn’t expect you to have reached this point, it seems that I have underestimated you.’

Li Yuzhen was taken aback this time, she did not hide the surprise on her face at all, “You don’t know your situation just now?”

Pei Xuanjing was confused and shook his head, “I really don’t know, if possible, please enlighten me, Miss Second.”

“Didn’t your elders tell you anything?” There was a puzzled look between Li Yuzhen’s eyebrows, “Could it be that you really have no tutors or mentors, and you have cultivated to this level on your own, this…”

Pei Xuanjing’s confusion deepened, his curiosity intensified, “Please enlighten me, Miss Second.” It is said that: A tutor is one who imparts knowledge, teaches, and resolves doubts.

The cultivation of martial arts is not only about grueling self-discipline, most have the guidance of a master or elder, or the insights left by predecessors to gain some common knowledge.

The sect he hails from, the Everlasting Observance, the highest realm of martial arts of the ancients is only seventh or eighth grade. Even though he has a life simulator in hand and can forcibly break through the realm of martial arts, he lacks some common knowledge and barriers for cultivation. This is a disadvantage of solitary cultivators and is inevitable.

Seeing that Pei Xuanjing didn’t answer, Li Yuzhen confirmed her guess, looking at him as if he were a monster, “You actually don’t know and you have stepped into this situation, it is truly unbelievable.”

Pei Xuanjing gave a wry smile, but he did not reply.

Ling Yuzhen looked at him with a complicated expression in her eyes. After some thought, she finally decided to excuse herself, “Anyway, you will find out sooner or later, I might as well do a favor.” Pei Xuanjing followed up, “Please enlighten me, Miss Second, I’m certainly not an ungrateful person.” What he was implying was that if what she said was indeed useful to him, then he would certainly have a reward in the future.

Li Yuzhen nodded, not caring about this.

The Li family of Longxi has a long-standing lineage, enduring for a thousand years without decay.

Although it has declined slightly in recent years, it still ranks among the top powers of the Great Ming Dynasty, and is not comparable to the suddenly rising nouveau riche like the Tie Sect.

For her, not to mention that Pei Xuanjing is just a fourth-grade martial artist now, even if he breaks through to the Upper Three Realm, whatever he can solve as an individual, her Li family can solve it, and what her family can’t solve, he will have difficulty solving as well.

However, Pei Xuanjing’s humble attitude made her very satisfied. In the past, only the elders in her family would direct her, but now she could be instructing others, especially a genius like him who managed to cultivate to the fourth -grade realm alone at the age of twenty. She felt somewhat happy and was hence willing to speak.

Li Yuzhen pondered for a moment before asking, “Do you know the main difference between a fourth -grade martial artist and a third -grade martial artist?”

Pei Xuanjing thought for a moment, then tentatively replied, “It is said that a third-grade martial artist has transcended the ordinary through a rebirth.”

This was what he deduced from multiple life simulations and some notes he had obtained. Li Yuzhen looked at him, “What you said is somewhat right, and somewhat wrong.”

She explained, “Martial arts cultivation involves external training of muscle, bone, and skin, and internal training of organs and marrow. After achieving great success, to break through to the Upper Three Realms, it is not only the completion of the physical body, but also the transformation of the mind, as well as the realization of a certain state.”

“An Upper Three Realms martial artist can be described by the eight words you used: Renovation of the body, transcending the ordinary. Renovation of the body refers to the transformation of the physical body. But to transcend the ordinary, it is a change of the mind, experiencing the inner meaning of martial arts.”

“I see.” Pei Xuanjing seemed to comprehend.

A true teacher imparts a single phrase, a false one imparts thousands of books.

Simply put, to break through from a fourth-grade martial artist to a third-grade martial artist, it involves not only the transformation of the physical body, muscles, bones and organs, and the marrow, but more importantly, the martial artist needs to transform their mindset and comprehend the essence of martial arts.

He had originally thought that the martial arts insight was only a breakthrough required for mastery of martial arts, and did not expect it would have something to do with the breakthrough to the third-grade realm.

Only then did he understand why his simulation failed last time, and what the royal mansion’s offer meant by saying he was eager for success and lacked sufficient insight.

And this so-called insight of the mind is just one thing: to grasp one’s own insight. Only martial artists who control this insight can truly break through to the Upper Three Realms..
