I Can Level Up By Staying Idle

278 Staying Invincible Before Leaving the Mountain

The night at Jiangnan Martial Arts University was still as quiet as water.

Behind the silence, the entire school was discussing what had happened today excitedly.

After all, what happened at Jiangnan Martial Arts University today was definitely a huge earthquake in the entire Blue Planet’s martial arts world!

Not only had a martial arts grandmaster died, but even the number one expert of the Blue Planet, the “Village Chief” of the Cherry Blossom Country, had died here.

The entire Blue Planet’s martial arts world was in an uproar.

The whole Cherry Blossom Country fell into grief. Countless martial artists and ordinary people began to mourn their Village Chief.

Still…

To the teachers and students of Jiangnan Martial Arts University, what excited them the most was that they had seen the legendary figure of Xia country today, the Hall Master!

Moreover, many professors and teachers secretly speculated that the Palace Master’s strength had very likely surpassed the two extraordinary war gods of the White Eagle Confederation and the Great Bear Kingdom. He was already the number one expert on the Blue Planet!

Principal Tu guessed that it was very likely that the Hall Master was no longer an extraordinary War God, but had already broken through to a “first-level lifeform in the Milky Way”.

Of course, there was something else that also excited the teachers and students of Jiangnan Martial Arts University. That was… Lin Mo was actually Black Earth!

One had to know that the names “Lin Mo” and “Black Earth” were definitely unprecedented geniuses. But now, these “two” unprecedented geniuses had actually become one. It was obvious how terrifying they would be!

Almost everyone was certain that the inheritance of the Primordial Universe Controller was definitely Lin Mo’s!

Could there be anyone more genius than Lin Mo on the Blue Planet?

‘Impossible!’

In every corner of Jiangnan Martial Arts University, praises and flattery for Lin Mo were everywhere.

However, at this moment, Lin Mo was reflecting deeply in his dormitory.

“It was so dangerous today!” Even now, Lin Mo was still a little afraid.

‘Almost!’

Lin Mo was so close to dying there!

If not for the fact that the “Hall Master” had been lurking in Jiangnan City, Lin Mo would probably be dead!

Although Lin Mo had been saved by the Hall Master today, he did not like the feeling of his life being out of his control.

Therefore, after escaping danger today, Lin Mo had been reflecting.

He reflected on why he was in such a desperate situation.

“I’ve been too arrogant recently!” Lin Mo thought to himself. “Ever since I entered Jiangnan Martial Arts University, my strength has increased too quickly, much faster than when I was at Haicheng Martial Arts High School! And my rapidly increasing strength has also brought about a change in my mentality. I often want to show off my strength…”

Sometimes, it was not that Lin Mo deliberately wanted to show off, but that he really couldn’t help it!

Though, Lin Mo had really tried his best to hide his strength every time he did. Usually, he only displayed a small portion of his strength. It could be said that he was already very low-key!

However, it was this small portion of strength that attracted the assassination of the Cherry Blossom Country.

“I didn’t need to flex all those times! It was not necessary!” Lin Mo reflected. “If I hadn’t made a move, no one would have known my strength and I wouldn’t have attracted the assassination!”

Of course, if Lin Mo hadn’t been showing off, he wouldn’t have been able to obtain thousands of hours of use of the gravity room, nor would he have been able to compete for the dormitory with the highest involution index in the school. In that case, his leveling speed would undoubtedly be much slower.

Therefore, to a certain extent, the speed of growth was proportional to the risk!

If he wanted to grow faster, he had to take some risks.

“I won’t attack in the future if I can! I won’t show off if I can!”

This was the result of Lin Mo’s reflection.

“Before I’m invincible on the Blue Planet, or at least until I have the absolute strength to protect myself… I’ll try my best not to attack again!”

Having learned from his mistakes, Lin Mo had already deeply understood the principle of “the tallest tree will be destroyed by the wind”. He would definitely not show off in the future!

Just stay low!

He would hide until he was invincible before coming out!

Just as Lin Mo was secretly making up his mind to be a “hiding god” from now on, the hall master knocked on his dormitory door.

“Hall Master!” Lin Mo was undoubtedly grateful to see the Hall Master again. After all, if the Hall Master hadn’t hidden in the dark to protect him, Lin Mo would have been gone today. “What brings you here?”

“Lin Mo.” The hall master smiled and asked, “Did you gain anything from facing death today?”

The hall master deliberately attacked at the last moment to create a chance for Lin Mo to “face death head-on”.

There was great terror and strength between life and death. Facing death head-on could also allow one to walk the path of martial arts faster and further!

Of course, these opportunities were very rare, because if he was not careful, he would really die! The Hall Master was also absolutely confident in his abilities, so he allowed Lin Mo to face death head-on, hoping that Lin Mo could comprehend some of the essence of martial arts.

“Gain…” Lin Mo thought for a moment and said, “Yes! I gained a lot!”

And he wasn’t wrong to think that.

It was precisely because he was facing death today that Lin Mo thought through his future path of martial arts. That was to hide!

The Hall Master naturally did not know that Lin Mo had only comprehended the word “hide”. He thought that Lin Mo had really gained something in the enlightenment towards martial arts and even nodded in satisfaction.

“Not bad, not bad!” The hall master smiled in satisfaction. “Since you have gained something, my efforts were not in vain!”

Lin Mo did not quite understand what the Hall Master was doing, but he did not need to understand. In front of his savior, he should just say thank you!

“Thank you, Hall Master!” Lin Mo said without thinking.

“Do you have any plans next?” the Hall Master asked again.

‘Plans?’

‘What other plans could he have?’

...

Of course he was leveling up!

Of course, Lin Mo had to make it sound nicer. “Next, I plan to calm down and focus on cultivating!”

“Yes!” The hall master nodded in satisfaction. “If you can focus so much on the path of martial arts, no wonder you have such high achievements!”

How could the Hall Master know that… Lin Mo was either lying down or on the way to lie down every day!

Focus on the path of martial arts?

Focus my ass!

“Then continue to cultivate in peace in Jiangnan Martial Arts University!” The hall master said calmly, “As for safety, you don’t have to worry. I’ll live in Jiangnan City. Once you encounter any danger, I’ll take action!”

Lin Mo’s eyes lit up.

That made him even more at ease!

“One more thing!” The hall master continued, “There’s less than a month before the Ground of Sharpening opens. And this is also the only chance to compete for the inheritance of the Primordial Universe’s controller! Therefore… when it opens, no matter what you have achieved in cultivation, you must follow me directly to the outer realm battlefield!”

“Yes!” Lin Mo nodded.

...

The inheritance of the Primordial Universe Controller? Of course he wanted to participate in the competition!

“Cultivate well during this period of time! The stronger you are, the more hope you have of obtaining the inheritance of the Primordial Universe Controller!” The Temple Master said. “By the way! I saw you controlling a feather with your psychic force when you were fighting Grandmaster Zhitian previously?”

“Yes!” Lin Mo said and prepared to take off his belt and show the Hall Master the feather.

“There’s no need to take it out!” the Hall Master laughed. “I know what kind of feather it is!”

“Oh?” Lin Mo was curious.

Lin Mo had actually been trying to figure out what this magical feather was.

The Hall Master smiled and asked, “Do you know what kind of place the outer realm battlefield is?”
