Mu Jinyu entered the Advanced Combat Training Room and saw a life-size puppet standing woodenly inside.

It didn't appear to have any of the imposing aura of the Life-and-Death Realm.

However, since it's an Advanced Combat Training Room, this puppet must certainly possess Life-and-Death Realm combat power.

"Let's swipe the card first."

Mu Jinyu glanced at the puppet a few times and noticed there was a roller on its chest, marked with numbers from one to nine.

It should be for adjusting its cultivation level in the minor realms of the Life-and-Death Realm, right?

Mu Jinyu withdrew his gaze, muttered softly, and then held the Identity Plaque, walking to the activation slot beside the training room door.

Then he inserted his Identity Plaque into it.

"Beep beep!"

"Rumble!!"

When Mu Jinyu's Identity Plaque was inserted into the slot, the activation device emitted a soft hum.

Immediately afterward, the heavy stone door began to descend slowly, sealing the entrance shut.

"Sizzle!!"

At this time, Mu Jinyu turned around and saw the life-size puppet starting to emit brilliant Thunder Light all over, crackling with energy.

Its eyes also began to glow red.

It was clearly in an activation state.

"Hmm?!"

"Activating so slowly, maybe it's giving me some time to adjust the minor realm of the puppet's activation, right?"

Observing the puppet's state, Mu Jinyu's eyes flickered a few times, roughly guessing its purpose.

Then he quickly walked to the puppet, raised his hand, and started turning the roller on its chest.

"Click click..."

The roller was quite deeply embedded, and Mu Jinyu had to exert some energy to press and rotate it.

Finally, Mu Jinyu set the roller's number to six.

This way, the puppet's final activation strength should be at the Sixth Layer of the Life-and-Death Realm.

Which is to say, the peak of the Mid-Stage of the Life-and-Death Realm, advancing one minor realm to the Seventh Layer.

Mu Jinyu had previously defeated Lu Kaige, whose cultivation was only around the Fifth Layer of the Life-and-Death Realm.

However, the opponent's strength was formidable enough to be compared to the Late-stage Life and Death Realm.

Had Mu Jinyu not created the Life and Death Reincarnation Diagram at a critical moment, he wouldn't have been able to leverage its power to defeat Lu Kaige.

So, since Mu Jinyu wasn't ready to test the power of the Life and Death Reincarnation Diagram, he naturally wouldn't set his opponent's strength to the Late-stage Life and Death Realm or even its peak.

He was prepared to first test the Firewood Chopping Saber Technique, both Sword Dragon Slashes, and the Life and Death Twin Dragon Fist to see exactly how much these moves had improved after his bloodline became purer.

"However, let's not use the Riot-Quelling Sword for now, or it will be difficult to distinguish whether the enhancement in the move's power is due to a change in the magic treasure or oneself!"

After deciding to set the puppet's specific cultivation level at the Sixth Layer of the Life-and-Death Realm, Mu Jinyu instinctively wanted to draw the Riot-Quelling Sword to face the opponent.

But soon, he recalled the recent "remarkable achievement" at Cave Heaven Eleven, where a single strike had taken down most of Mo Yunqiong's bamboo grove...

Thus, Mu Jinyu did not draw the Riot-Quelling Sword.

He also feared that if he swung the sword and accidentally destroyed the puppet, what then?

"The room should have weapons of specific quality grades, right?"

Mu Jinyu glanced around, soon spotting a weapons rack in the corner.

On it were various weapons and magic treasures.

It could basically cater to the majority of people's needs.

Only a few people using very specialized magic treasures and weapons might not find a suitable weapon inside.

Mu Jinyu quickly walked over, swept his eyes across the rack holding various sword weapons, and found a style he liked - the firewood knife style.

This style of sword weapon came in different ranks, including Top-Quality Grade Life and Death Divine Weapon, Superior Grade Life and Death Divine Weapon, Medium Grade Life and Death Divine Weapon, and regular Divine Weapons.

Ultimately, Mu Jinyu chose a Medium Grade Divine Weapon level firewood knife that he was accustomed to using.

"You'll do."

Having picked the necessary weapon, Mu Jinyu raised his hand to grip it.

He was about to carry out a simple refining beforehand, otherwise, it wouldn't be easy to handle.

However, he found that the weapons here were somewhat special, as holding them gave a feeling of bloodline fusion.

As if they had already been refined into a Life-bound Magic Treasure.

Mu Jinyu paused for a moment, then guessed why this was the case.

It was likely that the designer of this Combat Training Room took comprehensive consideration, realizing that the difference between a magic treasure that hasn't been refined and one that has a complete bloodline connection, as if an extension of one's body, is vast.

So they ensured that the magic treasures here would provide a refined effect, no matter who used them.

Enabling them to perform at their strongest state.

In this way, students who couldn't afford the Divine Weapons they needed could come to the Combat Training Room to experience the effect of high-quality Divine Weapons in battle.

Meanwhile, students who had saved enough academic credits and wished to purchase their ideal Divine Weapon could test the effects here beforehand, aiding their decision on which Divine Weapon to buy.

"Boom boom boom..."

While Mu Jinyu considered these matters, an explosion sounded behind him.

Mu Jinyu immediately snapped back to reality, scanning with his Divine Sense, he saw that the puppet was now fully activated. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Originally, the puppet had looked wooden and lifeless, entirely like a toy.

But now, after activation, it had completely transformed into a man.

Yes, at least from appearance, one couldn't see it as a puppet anymore.

But a person!

With black hair cascading down, a tall, slender build, and eyes sharp as electricity, incredibly fierce!

"Clang!!"

The puppet slightly raised its hand, a Medium Grade Life and Death Divine Weapon long blade dropped into its grip.

Obviously, after Mu Jinyu adjusted its strength to the Mid Stage of the Life-and-Death Realm, the weapon it selected was also of medium quality.

"Swoosh!!"

Once the sword weapon was in hand, the puppet, without a word, swung its blade like lightning, slashing towards Mu Jinyu!

"Boom!!"

The blade's light descended like a hanging river of stars, exuding a terrifyingly immense presence!

"Hmm?!"

Seeing this, Mu Jinyu raised an eyebrow, marveling at the puppet's power!

Then he gripped the held firewood knife tightly, his eyes focused, bursting like lightning, and slashed out.

"Swish swish swish!!"

Mu Jinyu swung several moves of the Firewood Chopping Saber Technique, invoking an indescribable Power of Laws, and fiercely clashed with the puppet's blade.

But, as expected, his Firewood Chopping Saber Technique was shattered instantaneously.

Meanwhile, the strike like a river of stars showed no significant reduction in power, continuing to slash towards him fiercely!

Mu Jinyu had foreseen this result.

After all, his firewood knife technique had already become inadequate by now, having struggled against Shi Yiran, and was practically unusable against Ning Ruofan and Lu Kaige.

The puppet's strength was rated at the peak of the Mid Stage of the Life-and-Death Realm, making its cultivation level somewhat superior to Lu Kaige's.

So how could the Firewood Chopping Saber Technique possibly withstand this puppet?!

"Ha!!!"

In this moment of danger, Mu Jinyu let out an abrupt shout, gripping his firewood knife tighter, and immediately unleashed the Bone Tempering Section with full force, executing the White Bone Sword Dragon Slash!
