The moment Bai Li Dong Jun bowed to become his disciple, Su Sheng heard a voice in his mind.
【Congratulations, host, for accepting Bai Li Dong Jun as your disciple. You have obtained the Innate Martial Lineage and a jar of Seven Cups of Starry Night Wine.】
【Bai Li Dong Jun】
【First Disciple】
【Martial Arts Talent: Prodigy Level】
【Martial Arts Level: First Grade】
As the system's voice faded, Su Sheng felt a surge of incredible energy coursing through him, reshaping his meridians and bones.
Once the transformation was complete, he felt like a completely different person. He now possessed a profound understanding of martial arts simply by holding a book on wine. Moreover, memories of Su Mu Qing drawing his sword flooded his mind.
If he had a sword, he would definitely be able to perform the Sword Drawing Technique.
This is the power of the Disciple Return System?
The rewards were simply unbelievable, transforming a complete martial arts waste into a prodigy level martial arts genius. This was like being reborn!
More importantly, any advancements in Bai Li Dong Jun's cultivation or skills would be reflected in him, earning him various rewards. This wasn't a Disciple Return System, it was a System for the Lazy!
Su Sheng beamed, helping Bai Li Dong Jun to his feet. "Since you are my first disciple, I shall give you a gift!"
Su Sheng then discreetly produced the Seven Cups of Starry Night Wine, hidden under his sleeve, and placed it on the table.
Bai Li Dong Jun's eyes lit up at the sight of the exquisite wine jar. "Master, what kind of wine is this?"
"This is wine brewed by me, a gift to welcome you into the fold!"
Bai Li Dong Jun excitedly opened the jar but couldn't smell the usual wine fragrance. Instead, the jar seemed to be almost empty. "Master, it seems there is no wine!"
Su Sheng casually chopped the jar in half, revealing seven exquisite wine cups.
"Seven Cups of Starry Night Wine!"
Bai Li Dong Jun's eyes shone with excitement. He couldn't wait to grab a cup and drink it down in one gulp. His eyes instantly glimmered with brilliance. "Good wine!"
As the wine flowed down his throat, Bai Li Dong Jun grabbed the sword at hand and drew it.
The sword leaped from its sheath, a wave of powerful inner force instantly sweeping outwards, shattering the window!
Bai Li Dong Jun felt the power surging within him and couldn't believe it. "This wine..."
"The finest wines in the world can be savored in three flavors, even the Autumn Dew White can be appreciated in three ways, but this wine is from heaven, a taste beyond the reach of mortals!"
Bai Li Dong Jun's eyes shone brightly. "Master, I want to learn how to brew this heavenly wine with you!"
Su Sheng said, "Brewing is a tough profession, there is much to learn. I heard you dislike martial arts..."
"I am willing to follow Master's teachings!"
Su Sheng nodded. The first experience pack was in hand. From now on, he wouldn't have to worry about system rewards. "Alright, today's lesson ends here. You cannot drink the rest of the wine, it's for the Duke of Westward and the Crown Prince!"
With those words, Su Sheng left the school.
Bai Li Cheng Feng was astonished. "Father, did Dong Jun's swordsmanship suddenly reach the Diamond Mortal Realm because of that wine?"
Bai Li Luo Chen looked at the wine on the table. "Heavenly Wine, a taste beyond the reach of mortals? Interesting. Let's see if it's his wine. Why don't you try it?"
Bai Li Luo Chen strode into the school, picking up a wine cup, about to drink.
Wen Luo Yu stepped forward. "Father, let me take a look first!"
Bai Li Luo Chen was very respectful to his daughter-in-law. He handed the wine to Wen Luo Yu, who sniffed it, confirming it was not poisoned, before handing it back to Bai Li Luo Chen.
Bai Li Luo Chen lifted the cup and drank it in one gulp. He then let out a glimmer in his eyes. "Good wine. This reminds me of my youth..."
Bai Li Luo Chen's words were cut short. Suddenly, a powerful internal force erupted, his body glowed, instantly breaking through from the Soaring Realm to the Great Soaring Realm.
In the Young White Horse's martial arts classification, there are a total of seventeen levels. Levels one through nine are ordinary martial artists, unable to release internal force.
Above this, there are four major realms and eight minor realms. The four major realms are the Diamond Mortal Realm, the Soaring Earth Realm, the Soaring Heaven Realm, and the Immortal Wandering Realm.
Within the Immortal Wandering Realm, the Diamond Mortal Realm is the weakest, and the Xuanxian Realm is the strongest. Among them, the Soaring Heaven Realm is further divided into nine levels, the Soaring, Great Soaring, Half-Step God Wander, and the final, God Wander Realm.
Bai Li Luo Chen was originally in the Soaring Realm, known throughout the world as the "War God" for his military exploits.
He could easily bury an army of ten thousand without batting an eye.
But even this War God was stuck in the Soaring Realm, unable to make any progress.
He had tried every method, but all had ended in failure.
He had assumed that he would be stuck in the Soaring Realm for the rest of his life. But at his age, a single cup of wine from Su Sheng allowed him to break through to the Great Soaring Realm.
Throughout the world, there were only fifty or sixty people above the Soaring Heaven Realm, and even with the so-called dark forces, the total number wouldn't exceed two hundred! This level of strength ranked among the best in the world.
Bai Li Luo Chen looked at the wine in his cup, his eyes shining.
"This wine..."
Bai Li Cheng Feng said, "Father, why is there heat radiating from your head? Is the wine poisonous?"
Wen Luo Yu said, "That's not heat, it's true energy. When true energy condenses and exits the body, it usually happens during a breakthrough..."
Bai Li Cheng Feng asked, "Are you saying that a single cup of wine allowed Father to reach the Great Soaring Realm?"
Bai Li Luo Chen snapped out of his reverie and walked to the door, saying in a loud voice, "Mr. Su, thank you!"
Su Sheng waved his hand. He had brewed this wine purely to attract his disciple, Bai Li Dong Jun. Now that he had received the reward, the Innate Martial Lineage, he was eager to find a martial arts technique to cultivate.
Bai Li Luo Chen looked at Su Sheng's back, his voice cold. "Li Huo, Li Tian, you two will secretly protect Mr. Su. Also, the events that happened in the mansion today must not be spread!"
"Yes!"
Bai Li Luo Chen looked at the wine on the table. "You two should also drink this wine. Drink it and don't say anything. Remember, today's breakthrough was due to my own enlightenment, it has nothing to do with anyone else!"
Bai Li Cheng Feng asked, "Father, why?"
"Why? That Su Sheng is just a scholar, yet he possesses this Heavenly Wine. A harmless person with a precious treasure is an easy target. If others knew about it, how could he possibly survive?"
Bai Li Cheng Feng was curious. "Is this wine really that amazing?"
