"Let's go to the toilet." Meng Chao's eyes sparkled.
They went up two floors and found the most secluded toilet.
When he saw that there was no one around, Meng Chao sneakily opened a small cubicle and gestured for his friend to go in.
"What are you doing?" The white bear was nervous.
"Don't be afraid. I just want to study your muscles."
Meng Chao dragged him into the cubicle, and before the white bear could scream, he took the initiative to speak. "When you circulated Reckless Bull Force to the area below your ribs, did you feel sore and swollen? Did you feel as if your power was about to leak out?"
Chu Feixiong was stunned.
He pressed down on his ribs, and his expression was unpleasant.
"Also, based on the analysis of your footprints, your lower body isn't very stable, but I've observed your muscles and tendons, and there's not much of a problem."
Meng Chao thought about it. "When you stomped on the ground, did you first feel a sharp pain in your soles? Then, half a second later, the pain moved to your knees?"
Chu Feixiong was shocked. "How did you know?"
Meng Chao smiled. "You haven't mastered the profound secret of Reckless Bull Force. At most, you can only bring out 50% of your strength. The other half is running around in your body, and it's rebounding on your legs and soles, which puts extra pressure on your knees and ankles.
"If you continue training like this, you won't be able to bring out your full strength. If it's serious, you'll end up with osteoporosis, aging of your joints, and the pressure on your blood vessels going over the limit for a long time. It's not training, it's just suicide."
Meng Chao ignored the toilet behind him.
'He looks like an otherworldly elite.'
Chu Feixiong was stunned.
He obediently allowed Meng Chao to study his height, weight, length of his limbs, body fat percentage, and the distribution of his muscles.
Meng Chao closed his eyes and calculated for a while. A series of force execution formulas appeared in his mind.
When he opened his eyes again, they shone brightly. He held a sharpened pencil between his fingers. "Come, release your strength again."
When Chu Feixiong circulated Reckless Bull Force, his muscles swelled, and his blood vessels popped up.
Meng Chao suddenly poked him with the pencil.
Chu Feixiong was about to cry out in pain, but he felt numb.
There was a mysterious power that was fine-tuning every strand of muscle, every vein, and every strand of nerve.
The originally scattered brute force was now gathered together.
"What is this technique?"
Very soon, Big White Bear's expression changed from suspicion to surprise. "My exertion is much smoother. It doesn't hurt anywhere. Even my strength seems to have increased!"
"This is all because of your many years of hard work. I'm just helping you find the knack to release all of your power."
Meng Chao moved his brush as if it was flying, and it became smoother with each passing moment. He poked a total of 300 to 500 times before he stopped.
He shook his sore wrist and said, "Let's try punching."
Chu Feixiong gathered all his strength.
The sharp pain from the pencil tip poking into his acupoint guided him to a slightly different posture from before.
His muscles were taut to the limit. His entire body seemed to have shrunk, but it was even more solid, like extremely dense granite.
As he punched out, a few faint ripples appeared in the air, and the sound of tearing cloth could be heard.
Hiss!
Chu Feixiong was startled by the strength of this punch.
He had never thrown out such a satisfying punch before.
It was like a flash flood, destroying everything in its path.
Although he did not test it, Chu Feixiong was sure that this punch was at least 3% stronger than his limit.
In just a few minutes, he could increase his punching strength by 3%.
Meng Chao's technique could no longer be described as monstrous.
Chu Feixiong was shocked.
At the moment he punched, Kindling shone brilliantly at the corner of Meng Chao's eyes. The sparks turned into two lines of words.
[Taught normal citizen Chu Feixiong the basic Reckless Bull Technique. Learning progress: 10%.
[Normal citizens have become stronger. The overall fighting strength of Dragon City has increased. Congratulations, your civilization has become stronger. Increased contribution points by 10.]
"Huh?" Meng Chao was surprised and delighted.
There was a lot of meaning behind this.
'This means that I don't have to pick up trash. As long as I teach the future martial arts to the current Dragon Citizens, I'll be considered to have contributed to the civilization?
'Makes sense. The strength of a civilization doesn't depend on a hero fighting alone. No matter how strong I become, it's impossible for me to fight against all monsters and the supernatural beings of the Other World.' But if I can become an ace lecturer who's one hundred times stronger than Demon Yan and teach the future martial arts to all the citizens, everyone will be one hundred times stronger than they were in the nightmare. We'll be able to beat up the supernatural beings of the Other World.
'So, this is the true meaning behind contribution points. The stronger the civilization, the stronger I will be!'
When he thought of this, Kindling changed.
[Congratulations, Fire Relayer. You have contributed one point to the civilization. Please choose your first contribution reward.
[You can upgrade Reckless Bull Technique from Specialist Level to Master Level.]
[You can also awaken a new skill: Basic Gun Technique or Ripple Force.]
Behind the three choices was a very considerate list of the contribution points required to exchange for them.
[You need 756 contribution points to upgrade Reckless Bull Technique.
[You need 3,100 contribution points to awaken Basic Gun Technique.
[You need 1,500 contribution points to awaken Ripple Force.]
'They're both three basic force execution methods, so why is the price difference between Reckless Bull Technique and Ripple Force so great?'
Meng Chao remembered that he had spent 3,500 contribution points to awaken Reckless Bull Technique.
Now that he thought about it carefully, Reckless Bull Technique was an extremely tough and powerful force execution method. After he was injured last year, he did not practice it much. Ripple Force, on the other hand, was flexible and long-lasting. It was very good for recovery.
Over the past year, he had put aside all other training methods, but he still persisted with Ripple Force.
'Is it because I know a little of Ripple Force, so the price for awakening it is cheap?'
Between Reckless Bull Technique and Ripple Force, one was tough and the other was soft. One was leveling up, and the other was awakening. Which one should he choose?
He nodded and chose Basic Gun Technique.
Since it was given to him for free, it was only natural that he chose the most expensive one. Did he even need to think about it?
Rapid gunshots rang out in his head.
It sounded like a bullet storm had just passed by him.
A thought appeared in Meng Chao's mind, and he immediately thought of countless gun structures and shooting essentials.
The memories of his previous life flashed before his eyes like crystalline fragments.
He saw himself firing, firing, and firing at all kinds of otherworldly creatures.
Some of them looked like octopuses that had been stuffed into a roasted chicken's stomach. They were much uglier than the current monsters.
Meng Chao felt like he had killed thousands of such monsters in an instant.
His shooting experience increased by leaps and bounds. A numbing pleasure surged into every nerve ending, and it made him so happy that he kept moaning.
When Chu Feixiong saw him close his eyes, look intoxicated, and even make strange sounds, he could not help but shudder.
The fatty, who weighed more than one hundred kilograms, shrank into a corner.
After a long time, Meng Chao opened his eyes. His gaze was profound.
Now that he had awakened to a new skill, he was even hungrier.
Resources. He needed those damn cultivation resources!
Chu Feixiong felt like he was looking at a monster, and he could not help but feel his skin crawl.
"Meng Chao, where did you learn such a strange technique?" the white bear stuttered.
"I'll talk about that later. Let's test your maximum punching strength first."
Meng Chao thought about it and paused for a moment. "Wait. Let's listen to whether there's the sound of someone peeing outside. When we open the door, cover your face with a shirt. Otherwise, if someone sees us coming out of the same cubicle, it'll ruin my reputation."
…
Chu Feixiong jogged back to the cultivation room and arrived in front of the punching strength tester. He activated it eagerly.
The huge and precise crystal device let out creaking sounds as it operated, and the screen lit up.
The white bear howled and pounded his chest like a gorilla. Based on the force execution technique Meng Chao taught him, he assumed the starting stance for Reckless Bull Technique.
But just as he was about to execute his technique, someone suddenly blocked his path.
It was Zuo Haoran.
"What's wrong?" the white bear asked stiffly. He was so tense that he felt uncomfortable.
"Who told you to use the punching strength tester?"
Zuo Haoran had a straight face. "Even though this is a self-study class, we still have to abide by the rules. Everyone is training seriously, but you and Meng Chao sneaked out the moment class started and only came back after around twenty minutes. Then, you said that you wanted to test your punching strength. Did you get permission?"
His voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was just loud enough for the entire cultivation room to hear.
The white bear was so angry that his eyebrows shot up.
"Don't be angry, Chu Feixiong. I'm doing this for your own good."
Zuo Haoran cast a glance at Meng Chao. "After all, you're different from some people. You still have a high chance of getting into college. Focus on your training during the last one and a half months. Don't mix around with some people anymore. It'll affect your future, and it'll be too late for regrets.
"Alright, go and train first. Ten minutes before class ends, I'll arrange for everyone to line up and test their punching strength."
The class rep waved his hand as if it was only natural.
The white bear flew into a rage.
"Class Rep Zuo, do you really think that you're a teacher? You're using a feather as an arrow! "
He said loudly. "I just gained some epiphany from Reckless Bull Force, which is why I'm in a hurry to test my punching strength. Even if the homeroom teacher or Demon Yan came, they wouldn't stop me. Why are you poking your nose into other people's business? You're wasting my epiphany. Can you afford to pay for it? "
He was born with a loud voice, and he immediately attracted the students' attention.
Everyone perked up their ears. They wanted to know why the two elites in the class were fighting in public.
Zuo Haoran's expression was dark.
He did not expect that Chu Feixiong would dare to make a scene in public. He was being shameless!
"Epiphany?"
Zuo Haoran smiled coldly. "Chu Feixiong, I saw your stance when you executed your force. It's crooked and strange. It's too different from the standard Reckless Bull Force. If you execute your force like that, you won't be able to deliver a heavy punch. How is that considered an epiphany?
"I'm in charge of this self-study class. Your Reckless Bull Force is so clumsy. It's fine if you can't deliver a heavy punch, but if your force goes wrong and you injure yourself, I won't be able to pay for it.
