On the way back to the tree base, especially when he passed by the grassland, Zhang Tie couldn't help but recall what had happened that day and the way the wolves had looked at him. That was an unforgettable hatred. Zhang Tie had a premonition that he would meet the four wolves again.
At noon, there was only one person left in the tree base. Today, it was Bagdad. When Zhang Tie returned to the tree base, he saw Bagdad, bare-chested and holding a long spear, diligently practicing assassination movements under the dragon-claw tree. The moment Zhang Tie approached the tree base, he was discovered by Bagdad.
"Who?" The sweaty Bagdad turned around with his gun in his hand.
"You're so diligent and vigilant. Boy, are you stimulated by me who has already lit the Shrine surging point?" Zhang Tie smiled as he walked towards him.
Seeing Zhang Tie's surprised expression, Bagdad's expression froze. His face twitched as he swore, "Bastard!" Dropping his spear, he walked towards Zhang Tie and fiercely hugged him. "Don't be complacent. I will surpass you sooner or later!"
"Bagdad, do you know that I always have a big secret that I don't want to tell you!" Zhang Tie said with a very solemn expression.
As expected, Bagdad was fooled and asked, "What secret?"
"The secret is that I'm actually a genius among geniuses …" Zhang Tie's solemn look turned into an annoying smile, "Previously, I wanted to experience the life of mortals so as not to hurt you. Therefore, I purposefully suppressed my brilliance and only displayed 5% of my real strength. After this event, I've already decided to go all out. Therefore, it will be increasingly difficult for you to catch up with me in the future. I advise you to change your goal. Take a genius like me as your goal to surpass. This is your greatest misfortune as mortals! "
"Ah. You bastard... "Realizing that he had been fooled, Bagdad directly put his arm around Zhang Tie's neck, almost causing Zhang Tie to roll his eyes...
…
Needless to say, when Barley and the others came back and saw Zhang Tie, the tree base became boisterous again. They didn't have any big harvest today. Although they didn't catch any big prey from the big traps, they caught two pheasants from the small traps made of twigs and stones that Zhang Tie taught them. Plus over ten palm-sized fishes from the brook and the wild vegetables brought by Zhang Tie, it was another delicious meal tonight.
In the evening. Zhang Tie told them that he had invited a girl for supper. After that, he went to Wild Wolf Castle to pick Pandora up amidst the cheers of the other guys. As it was the first time for Pandora to be invited to supper by a male student, she was a bit reserved. However, after arriving at the tree base, she became much more relaxed amidst the laughter of the other horny students.
After dinner, Zhang Tie invited Pandora to visit the tree base. After that, he, Bagdad, and Sharwin escorted Pandora back to Wild Wolf Castle in a gentlemanly manner. Seeing the corners of Pandora's mouth rising on the way back, Zhang Tie knew that this invitation and supper were very successful. It seemed that it was not difficult to invite a girl.
When the three of them came back, a bonfire had already been lit under the Dragon-Claw Tree. Barley and the others were sitting under the tree and chatting about Pandora.
"That girl's breasts are a bit small, and her body is not fully developed. However, her face is not bad. Bighead's taste is a bit strange!" Leit said.
"Maybe this kind of girl can easily arouse Bighead's desire to conquer her. I heard that many uncles who are physically weak like this kind of petite and exquisite girl. They are easy to conquer, hahaha..."
"Haven't you noticed that Pandora's eyes are very watery and beautiful? According to my observation, all women with beautiful eyes are good at pleasing men..." Hista said obscenely.
"Even Bighead has a partner. We have to work harder. There are many beautiful girls in the team that we invited last time. Let's try again tomorrow..."
Talking about girls, all the other horny students became excited. Seeing that Zhang Tie and the others had returned, they moved their butts to let Zhang Tie and the others sit down and started to chat with them. Being questioned by the others, Zhang Tie honestly told them how he had met Pandora. Although Zhang Tie had repeatedly stated that he really didn't have any other thoughts about Pandora and that the two of them could barely be counted as friends who could chat with each other, and that he really wanted to help them pass this survival training, nobody believed him. Zhang Tie's explanation was only met with suspicious gazes and boos.
"You don't have any thoughts about her now because you haven't been circumcised. In this survival training, you're also forbidden from contacting girls. Heh... heh... without these two obstacles, I think you would have long revealed your true colors!"
"I know. You want to keep Pandora until we return to Blackhot City. That's a good idea. You're really far-sighted. This little girl is inconspicuous now, so she's very safe. If you build a good foundation, you won't have to worry about being robbed by others!"
"Two months later, Pandora should be able to grow a bit more!"
"She should be a bit more feminine. Girls nowadays mature very early and grow very fast!"
"She's indeed a bit small now. Let's occupy this pit first, then we won't have to worry about not having a place to take a sh * t in the future..."
"Heh... heh..."
"These beasts," Zhang Tie cursed inside. In order to prevent his ears and pure mind from being polluted by their dirty words, Zhang Tie decided to change the topic and used his trump card.
Zhang Tie didn't say anything; instead, he just took out the secret book of "Iron-Blood Fist" from his coat. While those guys were smiling obscenely, Zhang Tie quietly read it beside the bonfire.
"Bighead, what book are you reading?" Sharwin, who liked reading books, asked out of curiosity.
"Nothing, it's just a secret book of the Norman Empire's royal family's secret martial skill, 'Iron-Blood Fist'!" Zhang Tie said it casually, as if he was talking about a second-hand knight novel that he had bought from a waste paper recycling station on the roadside.
"Oh!" Sharwin replied in a normal way. However, one second later, he widely opened his eyes and mouth, staring at the book in Zhang Tie's hands.
Zhang Tie continued to flip the pages as if nothing had happened. Gradually, the voices around the bonfire died down. Everybody's eyes widened as they stared at the book in Zhang Tie's hands. Then, sounds of people swallowing saliva drifted from beside the bonfire.
After a long while, only the rustling sounds of Zhang Tie flipping pages could be heard beside the bonfire. When everybody stopped talking, Zhang Tie pretended to be surprised and raised his head, casting a 'strange' glance at all the guys. "What? Why don't you talk anymore? Go on! "
"Hehehe..." Forcing a smile, Bagdad stared at the book in Zhang Tie's hands. "You … you said this is a martial arts secret manual?"
"Oh, you mean this..." Zhang Tie turned over the book, revealing the cover. The four words "Iron-Blood Fist" were reflected in everybody's eyes, causing all the horny students' eyes to turn red. "It's nothing. Although "Iron-Blood Fist" was a secret skill of the Norman Empire's royal family, it had long been popularized in the Norman Empire's army before the Second Holy War. It's not a very powerful thing, it's just a very common thing. Many people know how to use it. It's really a very common thing. However, the silver paper is a bit advanced. This kind of secret skill has to be copied by hand... "
Zhang Tie continued to act cool. However, with the secret skill "Iron-Blood Fist" in hand, it was extremely effective.
"How could you have this kind of secret skill?" Leit also widely opened his eyes and stared at Zhang Tie with an unbelievable look. Even if it was a common secret skill, it was still a secret skill. Anything that was related to the word "secret" would be out of reach for commoners. As for the guys who had graduated from the Seventh National Male Middle School in Blackhot City of the Andaman Alliance, it was really hard to find anyone more common than them in the entire Blackson Human Clan Corridor.
"I'm lucky..." Zhang Tie shrugged helplessly. "Several days ago, when I was recuperating, Captain Kerlin gave it to me. This thing was also obtained by Captain Kerlin on the battlefield. Captain Kerlin liked me and felt that I was lucky enough to carry this thing forward. Therefore, he gave it to me!
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem Captain Kerlin's intention was exposed by Zhang Tie's nonsense.
Once again, various envious and jealous gazes and sounds of swallowing saliva were heard.
"Then … did Captain Kerlin say …" Fatty Barley asked hesitantly. However, his words made everyone's heart skip a beat.
"He said that I have the complete ownership of this book. As long as I like someone, I can lend this book to that person. As long as I don't make it public, it would be fine. No matter what, 'Iron-Blood Fist' was once a royal family's fighting skill of the Norman Empire. The royal family of the Norman Empire didn't express that this book could be made public. Therefore, it's better for the person to keep a low profile! Look, I'm very low-profile. After getting the secret skill, I don't casually show it in front of others... "
'Low-Profile? Don't casually show it in front of others?' However, all the surrounding guys hurriedly nodded. "That's... that's..."
Doug, who was sitting beside Zhang Tie, rolled his eyes and pushed Hista away. He then hooked his arm around Zhang Tie's neck and moved his face closer to Zhang Tie with a flattering smile. "Bighead, when you were recuperating two days ago, I stayed by your bed all night, fearing that something bad would happen to you. I killed hundreds of mosquitoes for you all night without even closing my eyes. Look, the mosquito bites on my arm are still there..." Saying this, Doug rolled up his sleeves and tried his best to show the red spots on his arm to Zhang Tie. God knew where the mosquito bites came from...
Glancing at Doug, Zhang Tie smiled. Under Bighead's unbelievable gaze, he directly threw the secret skill of 'Iron-Blood Fist' into Bighead's hand. "Fine, since you stayed by my bed for me, you can have the right to read this secret skill for one hour!"
"Really?" Bighead exclaimed out of surprise.
"You have to start from now!" Zhang Tie reminded him.
Holding the secret skill, Bighead hurriedly started to flip through it. Beside him, Hista and Bagdad stretched their necks even longer than giraffes, but they were too embarrassed to directly move closer. It was a taboo to read other people's secret skills without permission across the entire continent. Therefore, the others all looked at Bighead with admiration.
"Ah, what does the line on the first page of the secret skill mean?" Doug scratched his head.
"That's the language of Huaxia, and it's also the principle of the Iron-Blood Fist. It means that force is power. When one's strength reaches the extreme, he will be able to touch the supreme universal law!" Zhang Tie translated the general meaning of that sentence. Similarly, this sentence shocked Barley and the others. From this sentence, they could see the level of this secret skill. The surrounding guys' gazes became even more fervent.
After Doug, Leit was the second one to react. "Bighead, during the days when you were recuperating, all the fishes you ate were fished by me. Did you forget that I even brought you fish soup twice?"
"Fine, after Doug reads it, you can have it for one hour!"
Leit burst out laughing.
Baley jumped to his feet. She looked at Zhang Tie with tears in her eyes, "Have you forgotten? Lady Anna … "
"Alright. It's your turn in the next hour after Wright finishes watching! "
Barley also beamed with joy.
Bagdad, Sharwin, and Hista were scratching their ears and cheeks anxiously, trying to think of a reason to let them read the secret books for an hour.
"I even borrowed Miss Daina's notes for you to copy at school!" Sharwin thought of something.
"Alright, you can watch it for an hour after Barley finishes!"
"Bro, in the future, as long as it's related to women, I'll tell you. Just come and ask me. As long as you like someone, I will definitely help you get her! "Hista acted like a pervert as he patted Zhang Tie's shoulder.
"Alright. After Sharwin, you can watch it for an hour! "
In the end, only Bagdad was left. Seeing that all of his brothers had found a reason, Bagdad thought for a long time and finally put down his' expert 'status. Forcing a smile, he leaned over and asked in a flattering manner, "Erm … Bighead, you haven't fully recovered these two days. Next time, when it's your turn to keep watch, can I have the honor to serve you?"
"Hmm, erm, it's not good. If someone knows it, they will gossip about it. We're all brothers, if someone misunderstands that I'm abusing my power among us brothers, it would be bad." Zhang Tie pretended to think for a while.
"If anyone dares to gossip about it, he will be alienating us brothers. I will never let him go!" Bagdad became anxious as he waved his fist. "As long as I hear it, I will beat the sh * t out of him!" After saying this, he glared at the other guys and asked in a threatening tone, "Bighead is not well and has not fully recovered. If I help Bighead keep watch, will you gossip about it?"
The others hurriedly shook their heads.
"Fine, after Wright, you can watch it for an hour!"
Letting out a sigh of relief, Bagdad also grinned.
Everybody fixed their eyes on Doug. In the flames, Doug seemed to be fascinated by the "Iron-Blood Fist Skill". His facial expressions were extremely rich. His eyebrows relaxed and frowned. Occasionally, he would wave his hand in the air, making the others more curious about the contents of the book. At this moment, Zhang Tie was also smiling inside.
He had originally planned to share the "Iron-Blood Fist Skill" with his brothers. However, people's hearts were always like this. When something was delivered to them, they would never cherish it as much as when they fought for it. Therefore, they would not be so invested in it. This was a trick that Donder had taught him to grasp people's hearts. From now on, he would use this secret skill to arouse the enthusiasm of these guys and make them beg to read it in various ways. One hour at a time, they would read as much as they could. If one time was not enough, they would come again next time. Such an effect would definitely be much better than throwing the secret manual to these guys without any consideration.
Thinking that he would be able to "act like a tyrant" in front of these guys, Zhang Tie became happy …
In the future, he would finally have a lot of time to think about how to improve his strength. It had been a week since he had entered the Castle of Black Iron. The second Leakless Fruit must have already been ripe!
It was time for him to enter the Castle of Black Iron again. He didn't know what kind of surprise that small tree would bring him this time …
As Zhang Tie thought about it, the faces of Glaze, his lackeys, and Captain Kerlin appeared in his mind once again. Zhang Tie didn't know why, but when he recalled Captain Kerlin's face these days, he always felt that Captain Kerlin seemed to be a bit worried … 'Is it my illusion? Or is that straightforward one-eyed man worried about something?' Zhang Tie thought to himself.
