The system is the proficiency panel

"Ningxue, did I look like an immortal just now?"

Lin Ji came to Xiao Ningxue's side as soon as he left Qingjing Palace.

"It's very cool, brother, have you learned that..."

Hearing that Xiao Ningxue was about to tell him about her martial arts skills, Lin Ji stepped forward to stop her, and took her hand and walked outside.

Uncle Ye came out earlier and announced that he had something to discuss with the two senior brothers, and if not, they could leave on their own.

Coming to the place where he often practiced sword, Lin Ji found a tree to sit under, let go of his hands and leaned against the tree and said comfortably.

"Uncle Ye told me not to tell anyone about Xiu Chengshi and Kong, so I pulled you out."

"Got it. I never thought that you could master that technique right now. You're amazing!"

Looking at Xiao Ningxue's admiring expression, Lin Ji enjoyed it very much.

"By the way, Xiao Ningxue, I will go out with Master Ye in two months to watch a swordsmanship competition."

"Can you take me with you?"

"No, I have to go. I can't make a breakthrough in my swordsmanship, so Uncle Ye is willing to take me with him."

Seeing Xiao Ningxue looking like she was unhappy and trying to coax him, Lin Ji reached out and rubbed her flawless face. Mm, it felt really good.

"Don't be upset, I'm not leaving right away, and maybe I'll be back soon after I go."

"Ok."

Xiao Ningxue agreed reluctantly. Lin Ji withdrew his hand and thought for a moment before making a suggestion.

"Ningxue, how about we spar with each other? I will only use the first level of Qi training and swordsmanship. I really want to know your current strength?"

"Okay, I just happened to have a newly-made water-attributed formation that I want to test out, but you need to give me some time to prepare. I can't deploy it right away."

When they arrived at an open area, they stood opposite each other 5 meters apart. Some array patterns spread out with Xiao Ningxue as the center, just covering Lin Ji. Slowly, Lin Ji could feel the water vapor around him becoming thicker.

"Brother, I'm ready, let's start."

After saying this, the surroundings suddenly became foggy and I couldn't see anything.

Looking at the things in front of him, Lin Ji released his mental power to explore Xiao Ningxue's current location.

Swoosh! Several fist-sized water balls attacked Lin Ji. He drew his sword and cut them apart, quickly approaching the position where Xiao Ningxue was sensed by his mental power.

Lin Ji, who blocked the attack again, had already approached Xiao Ningxue and placed the sword across her neck.

"Ningxue, it's over."

"Brother, not yet."

The voice came from the wrong location. Lin Ji was about to step back when Xiao Ningxue in front of him suddenly exploded, accompanied by an attack from behind.

"This fake body can actually deceive the detection of mental power, amazing."

He turned around and cut off the attack from behind. At the same time, spiritual energy condensed in the direction of the fake body, forming a light shield that wrapped half of his body to block the explosion.

Lin Ji used his mental power to lock onto Xiao Ningxue again. This time, he did not approach her. Instead, he gathered spiritual energy in his sword and prepared to sweep it across with a sword energy to try.

"Brother, stop. I surrender." Xiao Ningxue looked at the light on the sword and quickly surrendered. Then she dispersed the formation and the fog around her slowly disappeared.

After hearing Xiao Ningxue's words, Lin Ji also dissipated the spiritual energy on the sword, sheathed it, and walked towards her position.

"Ningxue, your formation is really powerful, especially that fake body that I didn't recognize. If Xiao Yi gave you time to use the formation, he would definitely not be your opponent."

Listening to Lin Ji's praise, Xiao Ningxue's disappointment at not being able to beat him at once recovered a little.

"The fake body is powerful but also consumes a lot of energy. Now I can only use one, and I am afraid of those moves with large range and great power."

"No one is afraid of this kind of move! Let's talk somewhere else."

After complaining about Xiao Ningxue, and looking at the pits around, especially the big pit formed by the fake body's self-explosion, Lin Ji suggested changing places and taking Xiao Ningxue with him.

"Let's go to the pavilion that Xiao Yi and Ye Wanjun are fighting for. Let me see what's good about this pavilion?"

Along the way, many disciples saw the two holding hands, and they were used to it, so they didn't make a fuss. Before, Xiao Ningxue would blush when she was seen holding hands, but now she chatted with Lin Ji naturally while walking.

"Strange, isn't this pavilion popular? Why are you the only one here, Ye Wanjun?"

From a distance, it looked like an antique pavilion. It was not very large and there was only a stone table and four stone benches inside. But when he arrived at the pavilion, he saw that only Ye Wanjun was sitting inside. Seeing this, Lin Ji stepped forward to ask.

"Because I have cleared the surrounding area and am waiting for you to come and hand over the pavilion to you."

Lin Ji and the other person found a place to sit down and continued asking questions.

"What is so attractive about this pavilion that makes you fight over it?"

"You will know if you try practicing yourself. Lin Ji, I am far behind you now, but I will catch up with you sooner or later!"

Ye Wanjun left after saying this. Looking at his departing back, Lin Ji said to Xiao Ningxue.

"Let's try and see if it works."

Lin Ji felt that his thinking speeded up, his perception of the surrounding things became clearer, and his understanding of time and space also improved.

[You come into contact with the green jade stone, and your comprehension is slightly improved, and your understanding of time and space is deepened, but you cannot break through because your cultivation is not enough to fully release the time and space domain.]

Lin Ji was surprised. How could there be something that could increase one's understanding be here? At this time, Xiao Ningxue also stopped practicing and looked at him in surprise.

"Brother, this pavilion is amazing. I originally had a lot of questions about the water-attributed formation that I couldn't figure out, but now I suddenly understand a lot."

"This pavilion can increase your understanding, but I don't know why it is here."

The two discussed for a while but couldn't figure out the reason, so they agreed to come here to practice in the future. The feeling of increasing one's understanding is a bit addictive.

A cave located in Xuantian Sect.

"Master, our new disciple Lin Ji has learned Time and Space. I will report this to you right away. I hope we can strengthen our protection for him."

Ye Xun respectfully reported to the True Lord who was sitting on Yu Pu.

"Tell him that when Lin Ji leaves Broken Mountain after a year, find a reason to give him the best courtyard under the Jindan in our sect. Also give him this defensive talisman I made. It will automatically trigger when it receives fatal damage."

The True Lord on Yupu handed a golden talisman to Ye Xun and instructed him on other matters.

"Master, I have something else to tell you. Lin Ji has been unable to make a breakthrough in swordsmanship. He hopes to go with me to a nearby dynasty in February to watch a swordsmanship competition. This is the selection of independent disciples held by the Sword Sect every three years."

"You can go. You won't be in danger with this Fu Li. Ye Xun, you can go down too."

Only after Ye Xun left did Zhenjun smile.

"This technique has been in the sect for 500 years. No one has ever learned it except for myself. Ten years ago, I issued an order to give this technique to the talented monks in the sect for free. Someone has learned it. God is on my side! I have a chance to go to that planet again."

As the sky gradually darkened, Lin Ji and the other person returned to their respective rooms to sort out what they had gained today.

"Thanks to the help of the Jade Stone, I feel that I am very close to a breakthrough in swordsmanship. Let's go into the Trial Tower and give it a try."

Lin Ji sat on the bed and thought about entering the Trial Tower.
