Chapter 152: The Second Acupoint!

~7 min read 1,253 words

After saying goodbye to Bing Li, Jiang Cheng walked on the road to the Training Hall.

Now his Spiritual Power has surged, allowing him to absorb more Force each day, so it's time to quickly raise the proficiency of the Breaking Jade Technique, break the second, third and fourth Acupoints, and become a Second-level Force Warrior.

As for the pricing of the Firearm course.

He also held the mindset of Jiang Taigong fishing, letting the willing take the hook.

His Firearm shooting is already flawless, absolutely qualifying him to charge such a high price.

If someone books a session, that's even better.

If no one books, never mind; he can still peacefully cultivate without loss.

He collected a key at the front desk and entered a Quiet Room.

The interior was simply furnished; aside from the walls, there was only a meditation cushion.

Jiang Cheng sat on the cushion, closed his eyes, and felt the ubiquitous Force Light Points.

However, he did not rush to absorb them; instead, he first activated the Cultivation Method, refining two hundred Force Light Points within the first Acupoint.

After entering the Breaking Jade Technique, the refining speed is not fast; only eight can be refined per minute.

His current Spiritual Power can absorb about 4,800 per day at most; at this rate, ten hours will finish the refining.

If his Spiritual Power were too high, absorbing ten thousand Force Light Points a day, that would be a waste.

Fortunately, this is not a major issue.

As long as the Breaking Jade Technique reaches a proficient level, the number of Force Light Points refined per minute will increase, also saving time.

But for now, he estimates that the whole day will be spent in the Quiet Room.

Time passed little by little.

Around nine in the morning, the Shooting Range gathered quite a few people.

Basically they were all Force Warriors below fifth or sixth level, and even some ordinary people.

After all, possessing a Firearm, even with an average body, grants the power to kill a Force Warrior.

But today was different from before, because many noticed that the selectable Firearm instructor had increased by one.

The charge was two thousand yuan per hour.

The price was indeed not cheap, but they were well‑experienced and took it as usual.

What they could not accept was that the instructor turned out to be a Level One Force Warrior.

"Are you kidding? Who gave this guy the nerve to set a thousand yuan per hour?" a man shouted loudly.

"Yeah, a Level One Force Warrior charging the same as a Seven-level big boss? What does that mean? Does he think his Gunmanship is stronger than a Seven-level boss?"

"Let me see what this guy is called? Cang Hai? Wow, why isn't he called Universe?"

"What, Cang Hai? That name sounds familiar; isn't he the newcomer who came yesterday?"

"The newcomer who came yesterday? A newcomer, he dares to set two thousand yuan per hour?"

At that moment, the people around were even more shocked.

"Look at his introduction."

Someone said that, though it was unclear who.

Someone clicked the avatar and found a paragraph below, roughly meaning that with a Large‑caliber Handgun, he killed five gunmen, one of whom wielded a Heavy Sniper Rifle, and those five were not ordinary people but second- and third-level Force Warriors.

In other words, a Level One Force Warrior used a Handgun to kill five second- and third-level Force Warriors armed with Rifles.

The atmosphere instantly quieted considerably.

After a while, someone finally looked at the people around, as if talking to themselves or to others: "It's fake, right?"

"No way, this is an endorsement from the guild, it shouldn't be fake."

"Could the guild have made a mistake?"

"Perhaps that's possible?"

"Just make a call and we'll know," someone took out a phone and dialed Bing Li.

The call connected quickly; the man's face showed shock, then he hung up, looked at the crowd and said, "I've confirmed with brother Bing Li; this record is real. Though there was help from others, the five gunmen were indeed shot dead by that newcomer called Cang Hai."

"What?" the crowd exclaimed, unable to accept it.

"In short, that's the situation; the newcomer does indeed have some skill, but he thought that alone would let him charge two thousand per hour, which shows he's a bit clueless."

The man who hung up shrugged.

At such a high price, why doesn't he go ask that Seven-level big boss for guidance?

Even though there's a queue and one must wait a while.

"Exactly, that kid thinks it's beautiful, really believing everyone is stupid and has money?"

"Anyway I won't spend money on his course."

"Me either."

"Then we'll see which sucker ends up paying for his…"

"He can't possibly go a whole month without selling, can he?"

The hall erupted in laughter.

Soon, everyone dispersed, treating the matter as a joke.

In the blink of an eye, a day passed.

The next day, Jiang Cheng was still refining Force in the Quiet Room.

Just as the proficiency of the Breaking Jade Technique rose to one‑third, a change occurred.

A massive surge of Force flooded his body, rushing toward a spot near the first Acupoint.

Jiang Cheng was first startled, then his face showed delight.

Is this striking the second Acupoint?

Just as the thought popped into his mind, he seemed to hear a sound of glass shattering inside his body.

Crack!

The second Acupoint opened, and in the next instant it was filled with Force Light Points.

Jiang Cheng counted, and it had a hundred more Force Light Points than the first Acupoint.

If his Spiritual Power hadn't increased tenfold yet, Jiang Cheng might have been excited for a long time, after all each day another three hundred Force Light Points that could be refined appeared.

By now, all he can say is, that's it.

And at this moment, every part of the body, like a black hole, frantically absorbs the surrounding Force.

Without his control, it can automatically refine.

This time the duration lasted a bit longer than opening the first Acupoint, but after it ended, Jiang Cheng did not feel the improvement was as great as last time.

"It should be related to the limits of the human body."

For a simple example, in a 100‑meter sprint, a person who can finish in 14 seconds is already considered very good.

To break into the 12‑second range, the effort required is probably several times what it was before.

If one aims for 10 seconds, it may no longer be just a matter of effort.

Continuously breaking human limits follows the same principle.

At first, the body might absorb ten thousand Force Light Points and double its strength.

Later, absorbing several tens of thousands of Force Light Points might only increase strength by half.

Further on, perhaps a hundred thousand, or several hundred thousand, are needed for the body's strength to increase by a tenth.

"This is only the second Acupoint; the remaining two Acupoints must also be opened to meet the Second-level Force Warrior standard."

Jiang Cheng glanced at the progress of the Broken Jade Technique.

It still needs two or three more days.

At that moment, the phone set aside suddenly lit up, as if a new message had arrived.

Jiang Cheng instinctively grabbed the phone, glanced at it twice, and was a bit surprised that someone had actually bought his course!
