Hearing the familiar voice, the vicious aura that was originally produced by Lin Tian's chest immediately dissipated. He indifferently replied: "Wait a moment, I'll be right there."

Lin Tian tidied himself up a bit. He didn't know how long he had been in closed door cultivation for, but thinking about it, it shouldn't be too short.

When they exited the cave, they discovered that Fang Xing, Du Feng, and Gu Yan'er had already gathered outside. It seemed they had been waiting for quite some time.

Lin Tian walked out of the cave and looked at the three of them. Right now, the three of them had expressions of disbelief on their faces as they looked at Lin Tian.

Lin Tian was slightly startled. He could not help but ask: "What happened to you guys?"

"Are, are you still human?" After a moment, Fang Xing snapped out of his daze and turned to face Lin Tianjiao.

"Hmm?" Lin Tian was even more confused. Just what was Fang Xing talking about?

"Look, look for yourself!" At this time, Du Feng walked in front of Lin Tian and lightly pushed Lin Tian's body, causing Lin Tian to turn around and look for himself.

He didn't know when to look, but seeing Lin Tian gave him a fright.

"This …" At this time, Lin Tian was also flabbergasted as he watched this scene. His heart was in disbelief.

What they let Lin Tian see was nothing else but the surroundings of the cave that Lin Tian was in. Right now it was completely desolate and all the flowers, plants, and trees in the cave were unexpectedly withering.

Not only that, but what was even more frightening was that not a single blade of grass grew nearby.

"What kind of monster are you?" Fang Xing couldn't help but ask.

Du Feng also looked at Lin Tian with a face full of anticipation. He wanted to know Lin Tian's answer. This kind of destructive ability could simply be said to be terrifying.

Gu Yan'er also stubbornly stared at Lin Tian. She also wanted to know what Lin Tian had done to cause the surrounding plants to all wither and die.

It was obvious that the surrounding vegetation had all been drained of their spiritual power essence, resulting in their deaths.

Because there was a powerful Spirit Gathering Formation laid out in the cave, it caused the surroundings of the cave to be filled with extremely powerful Spiritual Energy.

Therefore, the surrounding vegetation also contained an extremely powerful spiritual power.

But right now, within a circumference of dozens of meters around Lin Tian's cave, not a single blade of grass grew. Even the soil was dried up and there was not even a single trace of life.

Lin Tian slightly froze for a moment before reacting. When he stabilized his Jindan Stage cultivation realm, other than using up all of the spirit crystals he had accumulated, it seemed that he had also swallowed quite a bit of the surrounding Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Now that he thought about it, it should have been at that time that the whale swallowed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth that caused this kind of change. However, this situation was truly out of Lin Tian's expectations.

Lin Tian also did not think that his destructive power was actually this strong.

But luckily, there was a Spirit Convergence Array, which could help Lin Tian continue to gather the surrounding spiritual energy.

"Alright, stop looking. Let's go. Didn't you say that you want to choose a martial arts technique?" Lin Tian knew what the situation was and immediately turned around to leave.

"You still haven't told me how you did it, and why did you become like that?" When the other three saw that Lin Tian had left, they couldn't help but follow Lin Tian and ask him what the situation was.

"I don't know, I was just like all of you. If it wasn't for you calling me out, I wouldn't have come out. This is the first time I've seen such a situation …" Lin Tian casually replied before changing the topic: "That's right, what exactly is the matter with the martial arts technique and how is it chosen?"

After hearing Lin Tian ask about the important matter, the other three didn't get entangled in this matter.

"You never came out of seclusion before, no wonder you didn't know." Gu Yan'er indifferently replied. As she spoke, she explained a few things to Lin Tian.

After Gu Yan'er finished explaining, Lin Tian suddenly understood.

So it turned out that this selection of martial arts techniques was a benefit for new students.

The Northern Courtyard did not provide for idle people. Although there were all sorts of martial arts techniques displayed in the North Courtyard's Martial Arts Hall, some of them were top-notch. However, they were not open to the public.

If you want to choose a martial arts technique, it's simple. Take out your contribution points, and you can pick any martial arts technique you want.

However, if you don't have enough Contribution Points, I'm sorry, but you can forget about entering the Martial Arts Hall.

However, these rules were all set for seniors.

There was one time when a new student who had just entered the Northern Courtyard could choose the benefits of a cultivation technique without paying contribution points.

Of course, this was only limited to one attempt.

After all, there was only a batch of new students every year.

Lin Tian had been in closed-door training for over ten days. This time, it was his only chance, so even if Lin Tian was still in closed-door training, Fang Xing and the others would still forcefully summon Lin Tian out.

After all, he couldn't afford to miss this opportunity.

Initially, he had relied on Nangong Fan and the others to obtain 50,000 contribution points, but he had used them all up in one go. If he were to enter the Martial Arts Hall, he would need to obtain more contribution points. Who knew how many missions he would have to complete in order to accumulate enough contribution points to enter the Martial Arts Hall.

The inheritance of the Ancestral Dragon was indeed incomparably powerful, but its consumption was also a bottomless pit.

Lin Tian sighed. After which, he followed a few people to the Martial Arts Hall.

The Martial Arts Hall was inside the Mission Pavilion.

The Northern Courtyard's mission pavilion was seven or eight stories high, and there were different treasures hidden within each floor.

Spirit stones, medicinal pills, weapons, cultivation techniques, as well as some unique cultivation spaces, he had everything he needed.

The Martial Arts Hall was on the fifth floor of the Mission Pavilion.

At this moment, a large number of new students had already gathered in front of the Missions Tower.

After Lin Tian and the others arrived, they discovered quite a few familiar faces.

At this time, the chief instructor of the Mission Pavilion, Zhang Feng, had also arrived in front of everyone.

"Are all the new students here? If not, we won't wait any longer." Zhang Feng glanced around before he asked.

Seeing that no one replied, Zhang Feng pointed at the old man behind him and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the instructor for the transmission of kung fu in the North District's Martial Arts Hall. Instructor Qian Jue will lead you to the Martial Arts Hall in a while."

Behind Zhang Feng was an old man in a black robe, who was also staring at all the new students.

When Qian Jue's gaze fell on Lin Tian, his gaze lingered on Lin Tian for a few more seconds.

But on Lin Tian's face, there was a calm and collected expression. Just this aura alone was enough to arouse a bit of interest from Qian Dun, Lin Tian.

When his gaze swept across the crowd just now, he had already secretly used his own strength. Among the other students, most could not bear the gaze of Qian Jue, whether it was lowering their heads or slanting their faces, from beginning to end, they did not meet his gaze. Only Lin Tian, who had a tranquil face, was not affected in the slightest.

"Alright, come with me." Qian Jue retracted his gaze and spoke to everyone in an indifferent manner.
