Chapter 154: As Though Two Completely Different People

Translator: Ash Editor: Geoffrey

Ding Lingdang imdiately retracted her foot. A sliver of surprise appeared in the pair of her pretty eyes as she turned around and looked at Li Yao; in her heart, she was astonished.

"It can't be! Was my heavy punch still not enough for this kid to give up? He really is too stubborn!"

Contrary to her expectation, she only saw Li Yao grimace in pain as he weakly said, "Sister Ling, can you help

out? I can't walk."

"What!"

Ding Lingdang found it annoying as well as amusing at the sa ti. With a step, she rushed over and ruthlessly nabbed Li Yao's ear: "You conceited brat!"

Only then did she pull him to an island at the corner of the reefs.

From the get go, the Billowing Star Sea was sold to cultivators as a place for them to train, and as such, it was preinstalled with various facilities.

The island was a natural resting place and a combat zone, and the seller had set up a supply point at the corner of the island where not only were commonly used drugs were placed but also a dical treatnt pod as well.

"Armor?"

On one hand, Li Yao was saring ointnt, while on the other, he was curiously gazing at the supply point, discovering that apart from the drugs and dical treatnt pod, two huge weapon caches were also there.

Among which, one was jam packed with chainsword-like close combat magical equipnt, while the other had seven or eight sets of armor.

Ding Lingdang shrugged her shoulders:

"These ca as a gift when I bought the rights to use the Billowing Star Sea for ten years. Think of it as promotional ans of the seller; otherwise, it would be too expensive. But as I am a body practitioner, I seldom use these kinds of things. If you are so interested, you can play with them as you like."

Li Yao seed to have thought of sothing:

"Sister Ling, what if I wore three to five pieces of armor? Wouldn't I be able to withstand your heavy punches?"

Ding Lingdang scoffed:

"You are so wrong. If you wore a couple pieces of armor, your defenses would indeed increase, but what about your speed and reaction? The higher the defense of the armor, the heavier they would be. You would have to carry a couple hundred pounds or even over a thousand pounds. Let alone quickly dodging my attacks, you wouldn’t even be unable to walk—I might as well hit wooden poles!"

"That might not be necessarily true!"

Li Yao was still very confident in his own capacity.

He would often go to the floating mountains of the Combat Departnt to observe the training of the Combat Departnt students. Over there, he discovered that a majority of them painstakingly trained their offense and defense, but in regards to carrying heavy weight, such as squatting and so on, they don't train enough.

In comparison, he, in order to modify 1st Generation Tai'e furnace, had to carry several tons of wrecked magical equipnt and run on the rugged ruins every day.

Day after day, carrying such maddening training, his capacity to carry heavy weight happened to be absolutely outstanding and even better than a majority of the Combat Departnt senior students.

A re few hundred pounds of armor was simply nothing for him!

Without further ado, Li Yao first wore a piece of light armor crafted from a Black Ice Crocodile's skin. Following that, he once again donned a chain armor completely crafted from tal and another set of turtle armor refined from a Star Spotted Turtle's shell. Finally, he hung over a hundred pieces of demon beast bone spikes above the turtle armor.

Li Yao wore a complete set that weighed 400 to 500 pounds, and when he walked, a "jingling" noise could be heard coming from his entire body, head to toe—it was completely horrendous!

"Huff..."

Li Yao did two squats, jumped up and down a couple of tis off the jagged rocks to check if it was alright.

Donning so many layers of armor together was still not half as heavy as the crafting furnaces; his speed had only fallen by 20%.

Ding Lingdang coldly looked at him as she yawned and lazily said:

"A while ago, when you weren't even wearing the armor, you couldn’t even see from where my punch was coming from. Now that you have worn a couple hundred pounds of scrap, your reaction would be even slower. Isn't that nothing more than a wooden stake placed on the ground? You know, I can blast this armor with a few punches and kicks before beating you into a pig. This is simply not going to help

in training anyway."

A mysterious smile crept over Li Yao's face as he confidently said:

"Give

half a minute. After that, you can attack again. I guarantee, it will absolutely be nothing like before!"

"Oh?"

Ding Lindang was surprised for a mont. Noticing Li Yao's he-got-it-all-worked-it-out appearance, it gave off the impression that he wasn’t joking and got her interested as she said to herself, 'Could it be that this kid still has so trick left in his sleeve?'

"Alright, you have your half minute. However, let

warn you—if it is going to be just like before where you can't even take a hit and can’t stand for even half a second, then I will not give you a third opportunity."

Li Yao, of course, had a trick.

Li Yao's expression turned serious as he beca calm and focused. His computational ability, like an invisible tide, continued to expand within his brain.

One by one, algorithms, formulae, theorems, and array glyphs flashed past his mind as lines of light, one after another, continuously expanded, collided, blended, and intertwined together to create an abstruse and complex crafting furnace blueprint.

Lub-dub, lub-dub, lub-dub, lub… dub...

His heartbeat was getting slower and slower, but as a matter of fact, his brain cell activity was increasing.

110%, 120%, 130%...

Li Yao had entered the super perceptive state!

His pupils contracted till they seed as though they were black tips of a nail. He sowhat provocatively smiled at Ding Lingdang, simply wanting to bend his finger in an aloof manner and gesture for Ding Lingdang to co when suddenly—

The reef not far away from him appeared to be empty—Ding Lingdang was nowhere to be found!

Li Yao felt his scalp tingle as a trail of goosebumps went down his back; his entire spine felt as though it had been imrsed in an ice-cold water. anwhile, his brain cell activity, in the blink of an eye, broke through to 150%, and in response, his computation ability frantically soared, breaking past every limit one after another!

Behind ! On the right! Three ters! Target approaching at high speed!

This conclusion was not that he "saw" or "perceived
