Chapter 28: Innate Talent Improvement
【Martial Dao Longevity Points: 39】
At the fifth watch, Xu Yang woke up. The first thing he did upon opening his eyes was to look at the panel. The points rewarded by the panel yesterday were thirty.
Because he entered the Turtle-Snake Great Stance yesterday and also learned the Mountain-Shaking Xiong Quan.
【Innate Talent: 30】
Without any hesitation, Xu Yang used all thirty points to improve his innate talent, not to improve the Turtle-Snake Great Stance or the Mountain-Shaking Xiong Quan.
His Turtle-Snake Great Stance entry was only one day later than Lu Ren's, yet still, no one believed he could become a martial artist. Besides the reason of resources, the most important thing was because his innate talent was not as good as Lu Ren's.
In other words, at the current stage, innate talent is more important than comprehension.
And comprehension involves the cultivation speed of cultivation methods, so using it to improve cultivation method progress wouldn't bring much benefit to breaking through the barrier.
In an instant, Xu Yang only felt his whole body heating up, and a feeling of numbness came from his tendons and bones.
His body became hotter and hotter, and he began to sweat.
He had experienced this situation three times.
The first time was when his innate talent improved to 5, the second time was when it improved to 10, and the third time was when it improved to 20.
And this time, his innate talent improved to 30.
"My current innate talent should be Grade C-plus, the same as Zhang Yong's."
After a while, his body gradually returned to normal. His whole body had long been soaked by sticky sweat, and this sweat carried a sour smell and was black in color.
He only felt his tendons and bones were stronger, his strength had undergone some changes, and his whole person felt much lighter.
Xu Yang didn't move the remaining points for the time being. Even if he wanted to improve the progress of the fist technique, he had to take it slowly.
He had only learned the Mountain-Shaking Xiong Quan yesterday, so he should wait a couple of days before improving it. It was best to add one point a day so it wouldn't seem so abrupt.
Walking out of the room, Xu Yang splashed a few basins of water to wash off the sweat on his body, and his stomach was already hungry to the point of being unbearable.
He was actually woken up by hunger. The things he ate at Weiyuan Hall last night had been completely digested. With the Turtle-Snake Great Stance entry, relying only on a little meat and rice was no longer enough to support his cultivation.
Returning to the room, Xu Yang ate two large bowls of brown rice with the chicken meat Xu Qing had stewed last night, still feeling unsatisfied.
If he ate to his heart's content, he could eat a whole chicken, but he had to leave some for Xu Qing.
The little girl was at the age of growing, and she also needed nutrition.
Xu Yang began to practice the Turtle-Snake Great Stance. With his innate talent reaching Grade C-plus, the cultivation effect improved quite a bit.
By dawn, the things he had eaten were almost digested again, so he immediately rushed to Weiyuan Hall.
He wasn't just scaring Xu Laoer last night; along the way, he told everyone he met about the matter of the brother and sister severing ties with Xu Laoer.
Xu Laoer had been crazy about money recently. What he was most worried about was that if he didn't comply, Li Hu would go find Xu Laoer.
With Xu Laoer's character, he might really sell Xu Qing for Yang Jun to practice martial arts. Yesterday's matter just happened to give him the opportunity to sever the father-son relationship with Xu Laoer.
Not long after, everyone in the entire Bai Shi Ward knew about this matter.
"The little brat is actually this clever!" Li Hu showed a strange look.
He came to Bai Shi Ward today precisely to buy Xu Qing through Xu Laoer, but he didn't expect to hear that they had already severed ties, thinking that Xu Yang had guessed his scheme in advance.
"Tiger Lord, what should we do? Since they've severed ties, Xu Laoer has no right to sell anyone." A subordinate beside him asked.
A fierce light flashed in Li Hu's eyes: "Giving face but not wanting it, since he wants to die, then fulfill him. Isn't the little brat working at the mine? Arrange a few people to go into the mine and finish him off directly."
"I wanted to do things properly, but he forced me to kill, so don't blame me."
Weiyuan Hall!
Zhang Yong still didn't speak to Xu Yang, but the hatred in his eyes wasn't as obvious as it was yesterday.
"Do you know why Liu Guangfa doesn't eat with us either?" Qian Jiaxing sneaked over.
Xu Yang said: "Why?"
Both of them lived outside the city and went home together every day. Qian Jiaxing would take this time to ask Xu Yang about the Turtle-Snake Great Stance.
Xu Yang wasn't stingy either; he would guide him on what he understood.
Everyone was struggling in the mud, so he didn't mind doing a small favor. As time went on, if you asked who had the best relationship with Xu Yang among the ten, it was undoubtedly Qian Jiaxing.
It was just that when they were at Weiyuan Hall, both of them had a tacit understanding not to let others see it.
Qian Jiaxing whispered: "He sold his meat to Zhou Yang, so he doesn't dare to eat with us."
Xu Yang was stunned and shook his head, saying: "It seems he has given up."
He wasn't too surprised. Liu Guangfa had long been out, and although he had memorized the Turtle-Snake Great Stance with Lu Ren's help, his Dao heart was already shattered, so this choice wasn't surprising.
Qian Jiaxing looked around, and after confirming no one was there, he lowered his voice and said: "It's not just because of what happened yesterday; others have also been shaken."
"He entrusted me to pass a message to you; he also wants to sell the meat in his hands for money, but he doesn't want to sell it to that group of dogs, Zhou Yang and his brother. If you are willing, he will sell the meat to you."
Xu Yang was somewhat tempted upon hearing this: "Who is it?"
Three hundred wen a month, and only ten wen a day to get three extra bowls of beef; this was absolutely a cost-effective deal, otherwise, the Zhou brothers wouldn't have been staring at them every day.
If he had three extra bowls of meat every day, his speed of storing blood and Qi would increase by a notch.
Qian Jiaxing shook his head: "He actually found me first, but I couldn't come up with that much money. He wanted one silver tael at once, so I said I would help him ask you. I promised him that if you were willing to buy it, I would say his name."
Xu Yang thought about it seriously and shook his head, saying: "I don't dare to take it." ===== CHAPTER 29 =====
One tael of silver, he could afford it, and it was also very cost-effective.
