Hmm? It's a bit sticky.
Only then did Zhang Shen realize that his body felt sticky and smelled fishy.
“Are the impurities in the body being expelled?”
He was not surprised, as this was an inevitable experience for ordinary people to break through. The room next to the training room had already prepared water for him to take a bath.
After taking off his clothes, Zhang Shen sat comfortably in the bathtub.
Just as he was about to take a comfortable bath, he noticed a small dot flashing at the corner of his eye.
"Hmm?" Zhang Shen's heart moved. Normally the panel is hidden, and only when there is a change will a flashing white dot appear in the corner of his eye.
When I opened the panel, the things on it had changed.
The strongest physical system
Host: Zhang Shen
Physical level: Acquired first level
Progress: 1%
Cultivation: Acquired Level 1
Progress: 1%
Evaluation: Your physical body has surpassed the limits of human beings. At this moment, you are like a baby in the first level of acquired realm, vulnerable to any blow.
The changes in the panel caught Zhang Shen off guard.
Especially on the percentage that symbolizes the progress of cultivation, experience values of +1, +1, +1 continuously float out and are invested in the level of the physical body.
"This means that improving one's cultivation can also generate experience points?" Zhang Shen took a deep breath and was overjoyed.
The ordinary practice of martial arts still focuses on the physical body, but after reaching the acquired level, it tends to focus on Qi training.
The main practice method of cultivation is not suitable to be changed frequently unless it is passed down from one generation to the next.
"I was worried that after completing my main training, the speed at which I would gain experience points would slow down."
"I didn't expect that the increase in cultivation would also generate experience points. It's really nice."
After feeling the powerful strength brought by his physical body reaching the first level of the acquired realm, Zhang Shen closed the panel.
He was so happy that he happily took two large buckets of bath water.
I felt so refreshed that I went out to tell my parents the good news of my breakthrough.
The next day, Zhang Shen came with several martial arts secret books in his hands.
"Is this the trouble of the family members?" Zhang Shen said with a smile.
The secret book in his hand contains detailed explanations of body movements, fists, swords, and acquired cultivation.
Add to that the "Ming Yue Gong" in his hand, this is basically a complete set of inheritance.
Although it is only limited to the acquired stage, it is enough for Zhang Shen to use for a long time.
"It's just that I have to start my hard study life again."
The education Zhang Shen received and the knowledge he acquired over the past few years were only enough to train him to his mundane limits.
If he wants to be able to read and comprehend these acquired secrets in his hands, he needs to study further.
Hongyuan City has its own special school.
This was jointly established by three families to teach their younger generations.
We also accept a small number of foreign students.
The composition of these students is complex. Some are descendants of subordinates who have joined the three families, and some are outsiders who have paid enough money and resources to be admitted.
"Mundane knowledge can be taught by ordinary teachers."
"Acquired knowledge requires specialized warriors to teach."
"There are many warriors in the Zhang family who are qualified, but they are all busy with their own affairs and can only give guidance occasionally."
"But occasional instruction is not enough. To lay a solid foundation, it takes at least three to four years of continuous instruction and learning."
Zhang Shen did not resist and was even a little excited.
The students in the school are all warriors who have entered the acquired realm, and only they can understand the knowledge taught by the teacher.
Although what is taught is only the basic knowledge of the acquired field and basic boxing and kicking skills, it is enough.
They are only required to impart these basic knowledge; it is impossible for each family to impart their own unique skills.
In the days that followed, Zhang Shen got up at the crowing of the cock, washed, ate, and then went to school with his fellow tribesmen.
He would return home at noon, have lunch and rest for a while, then start practicing his martial arts in the practice room, and occasionally go to another training square belonging to martial artists to practice and fight with others.
He would often get beaten black and blue, but Zhang Shen didn't get annoyed. Such real competition could help him grow faster.
During the quiet hours of the night, he would practice the Bright Moon Skill to improve his skills.
Zhang Shen's life can be said to be very regular, and his progress is visible to the naked eye.
But while he was happy, someone was secretly unhappy.
What a martial artist needs to practice is not only the secret manuals of martial arts, but also sufficient resources for practice.
If all you swallow all day long are ordinary vegetables, fruits, and grains, even if the quantity is large, it is not enough to support the consumption of a warrior.
Meat is essential, as are various high-nutrition foods, and even one or two medicinal herbs with good medicinal properties are needed occasionally.
Eating these once or twice occasionally is not a big deal, but if you eat them every day according to this standard, it will be a huge expense.
Even in the Zhang family, only a handful of talented people can enjoy such treatment, and the training standards for others are much lower.
But these good things are limited. Even if Zhang Tianlong increases his investment, with the power of the Zhang family, he can only get more than before.
A little.
This little bit is not enough for Zhang Shen to consume.
Then he will naturally squeeze the shares of others and require others to give him a portion of the materials they enjoy.
Although the family increased its investment in training, the addition of a top predator meant that the treatment of others decreased instead of increased.
Naturally, some people are unhappy.
Especially since Zhang Shen occupied a spot for the family's top training, those who originally had hopes of entering this group instantly lost hope.
These people hated Zhang Shen the most.
This is not about right or wrong, it’s just that one general’s success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers.
A successful general must have stepped on the corpses of millions of people.
A successful warrior must have cut off the martial arts hopes of countless people.
The so-called resentment is the natural emotion that arises from one's own future being robbed by others.
These resentments and dissatisfactions were suppressed by Zhang Tianlong, so that they could not affect Zhang Shen.
But this is only temporary.
As Zhang Shen's cultivation level improves, he will need more resources, and his share will gradually expand.
More and more tribesmen will be squeezed and their resources taken away.
The dissatisfaction of these people will one day break through Zhang Tianlong's suppression and counterattack Zhang Shen.
That day came five years later.
In the meeting room, a fierce argument was going on.
"Zhang Tianlong, how long are you going to pamper him!" Zhang Yanxiong was furious.
"Your grandson, Zhang Shen! He has not achieved anything in these years. People of his generation have already started working hard for the family, but he is still hiding in the family."
"You are such a coward. Not only did you cut off his resource supply, you even wanted to increase it!"
"Is your brain full of bugs?"
"Zhang Tianlong, if you don't know how to be the clan leader, you should abdicate as soon as possible. The family doesn't need a clan leader who only dotes on his grandson!"
Zhang Yanxiong became more and more angry as he spoke, his arrogance rising, and everyone present was terrified.
But Zhang Tianlong was neither anxious nor impatient, and did not show any anger at all.
"Okay, cousin, don't be so angry."
Zhang Tianlong waved his hand, and his gentle innate true energy wiped away Zhang Yanxiong's violent aura.
This move made Zhang Yanxiong frown.
This old fellow's skills have improved again!
The reason why Zhang Tianlong can sit firmly on the seat of clan leader is not due to anything else, but the strongest strength of his Zhang family.
His cultivation gave him the confidence to ignore his cousin's provocation.
