Chapter 413 - 295: Eliminating the Huang Family’s Backup Plan, Tang Wen’s Question

Chapter 413: Chapter 295: Eliminating the Huang Family’s Backup Plan, Tang Wen’s Question

[Visualization Martial Arts, Night Divine Fist, Expert (2399→2400/12000)]

The experience for Night Divine Fist had passed the one-fifth mark.

Stimulating his Blood Marrow had caused a change in his ability’s awakening.

[Extraordinary Ability: Dark (Awakening Progress 79.61%→81.61%)]

It had jumped two full points!

His Dark Ability’s awakening progress had broken through the eighty percent mark.

The effect was comparable to three or four vials of Sixth Grade Blood Marrow.

But Tang Wen just kept shaking his head.

For most people, breaking through from Extraordinary Seventh Grade to Gangwu Sixth Grade was nowhere near this difficult.

For one thing, how many of them could possibly train their Night Divine Fist to the "Expert" level?

Most Sixth Grade practitioners probably couldn’t comprehend it to such a profound degree.

’It seems I have to reach 100% in my Extraordinary awakening before I can become Sixth Grade,’

’There are no shortcuts with the Night Divine Fist.’

’It can only be mastered through slow, grinding effort.’

’Advancing from Expert to Grandmaster, let alone even higher, is easier said than done.’

The door to the chamber opened.

Feng San Niang walked in from outside, a handmaiden in tow.

After serving him tea and water, she personally handed Tang Wen a hot towel to wipe himself down.

"San Niang, if you keep this up, you’re going to spoil me rotten."

"That would be for the best." Through the towel, Feng San Niang gently wiped Tang Wen’s abs, her eyes lingering on them.

She had been accompanying Tang Wen in his cultivation for three days straight.

Witnessing his extreme training methods, Feng San Niang was a mixture of alarmed, pained, and deeply impressed.

"Senior Sister, if Wen Lang keeps training like this, will he be okay?"

Shui Yun watched Tang Wen from the doorway, her eyes glinting.

Behind them, Zhou Bing, who had just finished training in the Gravity Chamber, shook her head. "He’ll be fine. He’s always trained like this. Back when he was a Martial Artist, he would even drain his Spiritual Power until he passed out."

"What?"

"Really?"

"Mm-hm. Back then, the camp didn’t have much Extraordinary Beast Meat to give him. There were a few times he trained so hard he could barely stand up afterward."

The two women were utterly astonished.

Training one’s Spiritual Power to the point of collapse was not only painful but also exceedingly difficult.

They’d all had similar experiences. They knew that once your Spiritual Power was depleted to a certain point, it became impossible to concentrate.

Forget about mustering the last, pitiful dregs of your Spiritual Power for a few more rounds of tempering until you pass out.

At that point, it was hard to even focus on simple movements.

More often than not, you couldn’t move, but you couldn’t sleep either.

You could only endure the profound discomfort until it passed.

BANG!

A noise came from another chamber.

"Hasn’t Miss Xia come out yet?"

Zhou Bing wiped the sweat from her brow, drank some water, and swallowed an elixir. "My aunt is also a madwoman when she trains," she said, walking toward her own chamber.

With that, she entered the chamber and closed the door behind her.

"Alright! It seems they’re all pretty hard on themselves." Shui Yun stretched languidly. Her training clothes pulled taut, revealing her curvaceous figure and accentuating her ample chest. "I need to get to my duties as well. I have less and less time for training these days. I hope I don’t fall too far behind you all!"

Despite her words, Feng San Niang knew that Shui Yun put in extra training late at night.

Once everyone was gone, a flicker of hesitation crossed her face.

’Logically,’ she thought, ’as someone at the Peak of Sixth Grade...’

’I should be pushing hard to break through to the Fifth Grade.’

’But my Realm is already higher than Tang Wen’s.’

’I don’t even dare to suggest we be intimate.’

’If I break through to Fifth Grade first, won’t the day we can finally be together be even further away?’

She couldn’t make up her mind.

That evening, Tang Wen, splayed out on the floor like a starfish, couldn’t help but laugh when he heard her dilemma. "Of course you should train hard!"

Feng San Niang put the towel aside, grabbed a prayer cushion, and sat on the floor. She helped Tang Wen rest his head on her lap, his cheek against her thigh beneath her long skirt.

Her legs were soft and fragrant.

Tang Wen sighed in comfort. "Wait until I’m rested. I’ll show you just how powerful your husband can be."

’Your husband!’

Feng San Niang’s heart skipped a beat, and she pressed her legs together even more tightly.

「An hour and a half later.」

Her red lips were parted in astonishment as she watched Tang Wen use his Spiritual Power to don pieces of heavy armor, one by one.

The clatter of the armor plates echoed in the room.

Feng San Niang’s eyes narrowed. She could tell how heavy the armor was.

It was all forged from an extremely dense, special ore.

Snapping out of her daze, she quickly stood up to help with the last piece—the breastplate.

However, as she lifted it, she realized she had grossly underestimated its weight and nearly stumbled.

Feng San Niang exclaimed in shock, "This piece alone must weigh thousands of pounds!"

Dressed like a golem, Tang Wen chuckled. "A typical Extraordinary Exotic Beast can’t carry much more than this, can it?"

Feng San Niang’s face flushed. For some reason, watching Tang Wen moving under ten times gravity while wearing armor as heavy as a small hill...

...reminded her of a time in her childhood when she was traveling with a merchant caravan and witnessed the breeding of an Extraordinary bull.

"Wen Lang is truly... s-strong."

Tang Wen grinned proudly.

He began to practice the Eight Vajra Techniques, even while wearing the bulky armor.

"San Niang, you need to learn this technique," he said.

"Mm-hm, okay!" Feng San Niang knelt on her cushion, her eyes fixed on him, not blinking once.

Being watched so intently by a great beauty renowned throughout the city, Tang Wen found his mood for Martial Arts Training improving considerably.

His performance of the Eight Vajra Techniques was exceptionally fluid.

He personally taught Feng San Niang, who then ran off to a chamber to practice it herself.

The Black Water Gang’s chamber resources were tight, but she didn’t need to apply for her own. She could simply use one by staggering her schedule with Zhou Bing.

Tang Wen and Shui Yun were now so influential that no one would dare complain about them occupying several chambers for their cultivation.

While Tang Wen and the women were immersed in their arduous training...

...the major powers of Ganshan City, after numerous discussions and at the strong insistence of the Huang Family, finally finalized the rewards for the upcoming trial.

The Huang Family: A Fifth Grade Fire Department Technique, a portion of Fifth Grade Blood Marrow, and the Curiosity, the Life Pearl.

The Chen Family: A portion of Fifth Grade Blood Marrow and the Curiosity, the Secret Sword.

The Lu Family: A portion of Fifth Grade Blood Marrow and a Curiosity...
