Fang Qingyu heard the nickname "Sister Jiang" and was momentarily taken aback. Then, he couldn't suppress a slight upward tug at the corner of his mouth, almost choking on his own saliva.

"Cough..."

He forcefully suppressed that bit of absurd laughter, but his eyes held understanding.

In fact, deep underground, when Jiang Wei said, "This time, I'll help you," Fang Qingyu had already faintly sensed the distinctly different aura on her body, far exceeding the Micro Realm.

That was definitely not power that could be mobilized within the Micro Realm.

But at that time, the situation was urgent, leaving no room for detailed thinking.

Now it seemed she indeed broke through before the life-and-death battle in the underground.

"Yes, that's right." Qi Hao also leaned in, his face still holding shock,

"You didn't see it, Qingzi! Xiaojiang... uh, Sister Jiang woke up, and that look, that aura."

"Tsk tsk, she felt like a completely different person. Even though she still has that petite frame, when she stood there, even the medical team specialists sent by Vice Director Zhao didn't dare to speak loudly. Her presence was incredibly strong! When the examination results came out, it showed that her spiritual origin transition was completed, definitely at the Divine Cultist Tier Three! Our Qingjian City's branch is in an uproar now!" Qin Hui added, "And she's recovering really fast, woke up two days earlier than you, now she's lively, just... doesn't like to talk much, stays in the corridor outside your ward every day, now she's sleeping there."

Fang Qingyu knowingly nodded.

He understood Jiang Wei's special nature better than anyone. This breakthrough was unexpected, yet logical.

Seeing that Xiaojiang was fine, Fang Qingyu started to care about the aftermath of the pit.

"What happened over there later? What about that Molting Level Life Ghost?" Fang Qingyu asked, his voice still somewhat hoarse.

Qin Hui and the others immediately began to narrate one by one: "Martial Saint! Qingzi, you didn't see it, a real Martial Saint! Descended from the sky like a meteor, bang, smashed that over thirty-meter-high flesh monster to pieces! Blown to smithereens!"

With hands and feet moving excitedly, Qi Hao was spraying saliva as he spoke.

"It was the Pavilion Master of Dragon Abyss Pavilion, Yan Shouzheng! Banmeng's master!" Old Qiao added, his face full of admiration,

"That aura, tsk tsk..."

"And another Martial Saint came, mysterious as ever, directly captured a bagful of Creation Technology's traitor leaders and threw them to Vice Director Zhao!" Lv Chen also couldn't hide his excitement.

"Pavilion Master Yan also went underground and retrieved the body of that white giant serpent!" Qin Hui said, his expression turning a bit peculiar, "The elder looked at the wounds on the serpent's body and said... it was killed by you and Sister Jiang together!"

Fang Qingyu quietly listened. When he heard the two Martial Saints took action, especially when Yan Shouzheng confirmed that the serpent died at his and Jiang Wei's hands, the faint smile on his lips deepened.

This result was what he risked his life to achieve.

It seemed Vice Director Zhao Qiming didn't let him down in the crucial moment either.

"Was Zhao Qiming the first to rush in and block that flesh monster?" Fang Qingyu asked.

"Yes!" Qin Hui nodded heavily, with definite assurance in his tone, "At that time, the situation was critical, and that monster was blocking the exit. Vice Director Zhao's eyes were red, and he led people charging in, shouting 'Hold the line!' until his voice broke! Truly a man!"

Fang Qingyu acknowledged with a hum, not saying much more.

To charge ahead in such a desperate situation truly deserves the word "man."

The group chatted for a while longer, seeing Fang Qingyu's face growing more and more tired, Qin Hui said, "Alright, Qingzi, you just woke up, don't tire yourself out. We'll head out now, you rest well. Sister Jiang... uh, no need to worry about her, she's doing well, just a bit high and mighty right now..." With that, the group left the ward gently, with teasing smiles on their faces.

The ward returned to silence.

Fang Qingyu did not immediately close his eyes to rest.

Instead, he slightly moved his mind, letting his consciousness sink into the depths of his mind.

[Atlas]That familiar light screen unfolded in his consciousness.

He first looked at the most central [Martial Artist Profession] panel:

Profession: Martial Artist (★)

Level: Lv.3 (0/800)

"As expected... profound."

Fang Qingyu whispered in his heart, with little surprise.

When he hammered the Earth Element Divine Chosen underground, he already felt it in his heart. The invisible barrier within his body had long been loosened under the pressure of the life-and-death battle.

At this moment, the panel clearly verified this point.

Then Fang Qingyu's gaze swept over other skills.

On the Martial Artist panel, besides the already perfected Qi Blood Technique, Observation Method, and Thunder Strike Eight Slashes, others like [Thunder Instant Cloud Trace], and two other Hard Skill experiences that hadn't reached perfection, all showed significant growth.

The various original skills of Candlebearer.

With frequent use of [Eternal Night Curtain] and [Blazing Armor], the experience improvement was even more evident.

Next, Fang Qingyu's gaze fell on the nightstand.

There lay an open box, quietly holding a palm-sized, shimmering scale.

Red Python Scale!

As Fang Qingyu's thoughts concentrated on the Red Python Scale, the atlas once again jumped out with a prompt:

[Detected advancement material 'Red Python Scale' (Color Quality)!]

[Do you want to immediately use this material for 'Martial Artist' profession advancement?]

[Preconditions not met, requires 'Martial Artist' professional level to reach Lv.3 (Max), advancement failed.]

"Everything is ready except for the east wind."

Fang Qingyu looked at the only unmet requirement, his eyes calm.

Now, he just needs to max out the experience points for Martial Artist Level 3 and max out the new phase of Qi Blood and Observation Method, and everything will fall into place naturally.

Remembering the various events of the pit adventure, from the fierce battle with the serpent to the fiercely fighting Sikong Zhen in the ruins... each time was a frenzied test on the edge of life and death.
