After Su Hao had independently dealt with the blue-striped tiger, he took the things worth money from the blue-striped tiger’s body and used the tiger skin into a bag that was twice as large as himself, carrying it behind his back. He quickly reached the rock where he had been standing before, and said to Wu Yuntian who was still standing on the rock: “Father, let’s go!”
Wu Yuntian drew his line of vision back and nodded without saying anything. He leapt down and left first. Su Hao tightened the tiger skin bag behind him and hurriedly followed.
Returning to the village, he greeted the villagers he knew along the way. The villagers saw the large tiger skin bag but didn’t view it as strange. They only smiled: “Yo, Xiangwu’s harvest today’s not bad!” “So amazing~”
Su Hao energetically smiled: “Oh no, oh no. Father helped a lot.” “If not for father, I’d be tiger food.”
Su Hao’s figure disappeared around the corner.He Qingqing, who had become more ethereal and agile, stared in the direction where Su Hao disappeared while biting her lips.
Little fatty had already become much taller, entirely unlike the little fatty appearance he had three years ago. Instead he looked strong and mighty. He was already as tall as snotnose Tao.
Now he couldn’t be called snotnose Tao because he no longer was constantly dribbling snot, so everyone called him silly Tao.
Little fatty withdrew his line of vision and said enviously: “Xiangwu and his dad have been hunting for three years. I’m so jealous.”
Silly Tao nodded: “Yeah! When will we be able to take a trip out?”
Little fatty sighed: “I heard Xiangwu had become a warrior long ago. The adults say that he might already be a mid-level common warrior.”
Silly Tao said in frustration: “I still haven’t been able to understand what blood qi is… Do I not have the talent to be a warrior?”Little fatty comforted: “Silly Tao, don’t be upset. I only became a warrior a year ago. You can still catch up. Keep working hard!”
Silly Tao: “Yeah… Little fatty, tell me how you found your blood qi again.”
“I told you to stop calling me little fatty. Look, I even changed how I call you to silly Tao.” Little fatty first pointed out silly Tao’s mistake in dissatisfaction before he proudly recapped his experience: “It’s actually very simple yea. It already exists. It’s right there yea. You just have to search a bit and then you’ll find it yea.
Silly Tao pondered on it: “So it was like that…”
Little fatty’s eyes lit up: “You get it?”
Silly Tao shook his head: “I don’t get it!”
Little fatty cursed and turned his head to look at He Qingqing and boasted: “Qingqing’s the real awesome one. She only spent a year to find her blood qi, so much faster than me. She’s a genius. Only Qingqing can chase up to Xiangwu right?”
He Qingqing turned and fiercely glared at little fatty and turned and stomped off.
Little fatty had a lost look on his face. Seeing Qingqing leave, he hurriedly followed: “Qingqing, where are you going?”
“To practice martial arts!”
……
Su Hao returned home, and after unloading everything, he merrily took a shower, then his consciousness entered the marble room and began to check on his physical state.
“Age: 8 years 3 months;
Height: 146 cm;
Weight: 45KG;
Physical state: Healthy;
Rank: High-level common warrior;
Blood qi: 5;
Combat skills: Basic swordsmanship (Proficient), Basic footwork (Proficient); Shadow Step (Proficient), Horizontal Slash (Proficient), Sneaky Stab (Proficient), Forceful Fist (Skilled), Collision (Entry), Shield Strike (Entry), Jumping Cleave (Entry);
Variable Control: Blood Qi Strengthening Function (Proficient), Muscle Strengthening Function (Proficient), Bone Strengthening Function (Entry), Organ Strengthening Function (Not yet started), Five Senses Strengthening Function (Not yet started)
”
The above was the program that Su Hao wrote during the past two years that monitored his situation. It mainly observed his overall state. He particularly cared about the “Physical State” column, which he had spent the most time on. He would not permit himself to suddenly die due to some random disease again.
“Physical State” seemed like a simple thing to regulate, but the scope of it was anything but simple. It included many standard measurements, such as blood testing, heart rate testing, urine testing, organ testing, etc. Any part of the body could be within its scope of testing at any time.
His basica goal remained the same. Every opportunity, he wanted to live as well as possible and reduce the amount of risks. Although he was not afraid to die, he didn’t want to die easily. What if one day he closed his eyes and never woke up again?
The calculation after “Blood Qi” pointed to his current day body’s blood qi quantity. It was established by using the amount of blood qi he had three years ago as a standard. So 5 meant that the amount of blood qi he had now was five times more than three years ago. One could imagine how much stronger his body had become in the past three years.
This kind of strengthening of the body was thanks to Su Hao’s mastery of the ‘blood qi enhancement wave’ and the in-depth research he had done on his body.
He discovered that by controlling “blood qi enhancement waves” he could control the body’s blood qi strength. By the same logic, did some special substance exist that could strengthen the muscles of the body?
He discovered that by maintaining blood qi’s quantity at the limit of what his body could handle, he could quicken the strengthening of his body. A long period of research let him find the muscle strengthening special substance, which he named the “Muscle Strengthening Wave”.
After a long period of continual searching, in the end he discovered “Bone Strengthening”, “Organ Strengthening”, and “Five Senses Strengthening” special substances.
Then Su Hao, according to the properties of the special substances, gave them their names. They were called “Blood Qi Strengthening Function”, “Muscle Strengthening Function”, “Bone Strengthening Function”, etc.
As long as he could control the variables for the special substance production, he could control the direction of his body’s strengthening. Wasn’t that what a function was?
The variables for the strengthening functions had always been an instinctually controlled by the body.
Now Su Hao’s consciousness had seized control and he could freely control these instinctual functions at will.
Up until now, Su Hao had been able to master “Blood Qi Strengthening Function” and “Muscle Strengthening Function” variables, and preliminarily master “Bone Strengthening Function” variables. Regrettably, though he had found “Organ Strengthening Function” and “Five Senses Strengthening Function” variables, he hadn’t been able to find a way to control them.
The current limiting factors for Su Hao’s overall body improvement were precisely his organs and five senses. Once he found the way to control the variables for those two, Su Hao’s strength would definitely improve by a whole level.
The combat skills column was put together more casually. Writing them out could help him have a more clear understanding towards his combat strength. They had been arranged in order of mastery.
The proficiency he had set was: Not yet started, entry, skilled, proficient, superior, supernatural.
Every time he looked at it, Su Hao would remind himself: “You are an assassin, not a warrior, don’t be reckless.”
What made Su Hao sigh was that Little Light’s currently level of intelligence was too low and it lacked too much data. Aside from the detection of “blood qi”, everything else had required him to manually update.
For example, what was entry, what was proficient, Little Light had no way of distinguishing and automatically assigning it a grade.
Back out of the marble room, Su Hao began to give himself tasks for the day.
“Currently, blood qi strength and muscle strength have their maximum value and don’t need to be strengthened further. Next up, I’ll strengthen bones for an hour, then I’ll use an hour to try ways to control strengthening organs and five senses.”
As soon as he said it, Su Hao sat cross-legged, and let himself relax, entering a state of meditation, all thoughts disappearing, focusing on a single thing.
After an hour, Su Hao awoke.
“Bone strengthening variables are such a pain to control, making bone strengthening go at such a slow pace.” Su Hao frowned with some helplessness. When controlling the variables for bone strengthening, he felt powerless. It wasn’t nearly as natural and smooth as controlling blood qi, “Being able to control it is already pretty good. The headache is organs and five senses. There hasn’t been any progress at all.”
Su Hao adjusted himself for half an hour and once again entered a state of meditation, trying to control the variables for strengthening the organs and five senses.
After an hour, Su Hao opened his eyes and shook his head: “Still no good. What exactly do I have to do?”
If you can’t figure it out, don’t force it. He got up and went for some fresh air.
As soon as he exited, he saw Wu Yuntian sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.
Wu Yuntian took a sip and put the tea cup down: “Xiangwu, tomorrow I will teach you how to become an elite warrior!”
Su Hao’s eye lit up: “Why not start learning today?”
Wu Yuntian held back for a while before saying a word: “… Habit!”
