While watching Berth and Renald argue back and forth, I heard a sudden question from Alicia. “System, recomnd a martial arts technique.”
I thought for a mont before accepting her request and created several screens in front of her.
[Here are so recomnded Martial Arts manuals.]
[Body Tempering Technique.
Cost: 1.000 points.
Limit: Martial Saint
Detail: Body Tempering Stage technique that could convert martial artist’s vital energy into spirit qi and allow a cultivator to skip the qi sensing stage.
Note: extrely difficult to practice.]
[Talentless Technique
Cost: 2.000 points
Limit: Martial Grandmaster.
Detail: An extrely rare martial arts technique that allow people with no talent in martial arts to practice it.
Note: slow progression even for genius.]
[Lightning Body Technique
Cost: 1.000 points
Limit: Martial Lord.
Detail: An average martial arts technique with extrely fast training speed.
Note: super fast training speed]
Although I only recomnded three martial art techniques to Alicia, those three are the most special martial arts level techniques I have in my disposal. That specialness is also the reason for their sky high price. It’s definitely not because I am trying to profit from it. This is simply the law of equivalent exchange.
All three techniques are as special as the Body Tempering Technique. Anyway, I don’t need to introduce the Body Tempering Technique which Ren Qingquan has used.
As for the Talentless Technique, it is sothing I found inside the hidden compartnt of a book in the Pure Wave Sect’s library. Although having an uncouth na, it actually has a heaven defying function that allows everyone to practice martial arts. The only downside for this technique is that it directly ignored the existence of talent and forced anyone to have the sa slow as snail training speed.
When I heard Alicia asked to recomnd a technique, I imdiately thought of this one. Mainly because they planned to share the technique purchased from to others in their group.
I suggested it after taking into account the fact that not every human has a talent in martial arts. It is also the reason there are many mortals in the Martial Arts world Ren Qingquan first transmigrated into. Except for the problem of resources, talent is also another high wall to surpass for anyone that wishes to train.
anwhile, the Lightning Body Technique is the exact opposite of Talentless Technique. It is a technique that allows its user to advance in cultivation stages like there is no tomorrow. By the way, it is also a body tempering technique I took from the Pure Wave Sect’s library.
Just like Talentless Technique, it also has a downside. Because of the extre speed, it ignored stability and accumulation. In simple terms, the people practicing this technique are the bottom most among soone at the sa stage. Nevertheless, they could still smack most of those on lower stage than them with no problem.
Well, I said most, because this technique is basically the exact opposite of the techniques usually practiced by those main characters in cultivation novels. If the common xianxia protagonists usually practiced so secret technique that slows down their cultivation speed but gives them a super solid foundation so they can smack so cannon fodder one stage above them and play the pig to eat a tiger.
Then, the practitioner of Lightning Body Technique is the cannon fodder in question. The one that got smacked by the protagonists because of their inflated realm. They are the paper tiger that got eaten by the ‘pigs’.
To be honest, I don’t quite understand how there are quite a lot of aweso books hidden in the Pure Wave Sect’s library. That sect is like the best stage for a child of luck’s rise to prominence.

Once she read the description from those three techniques, Alicia closed the screen and said, “I agree with the student council president’s plan. I’ve also found a suitable technique to practice.”
When she saw her words had gathered everyone’s attention, she continued. “Let’s go and collect so points the day after tomorrow. Today, I wish to rest for so ti. It’s been extrely tiring to hunt zombies for more than a week straight.”
She then pointed at the student council president. “You’ll need to co with too and see the difference between our two systems.”
Just like a chicken pecking on rice, the student council president nodded his head at high speed.
With Alicia’s decision, everyone left the classroom and prepared for another long week of zombie hunting.
Once she left the room, Alicia went to the school’s bathroom to take a bath to freshen herself before going to sleep.
As an excellent system, I spread my [Scan] as far as possible to make sure she is far from harm. I also spent more of my attention on the [Scan] while only leaving a small part to handle everything else.
That’s when I found so good news. Well, at least it is good news for . For the humans of this world, this news is incredibly bad.
For starters, the death energy within the surrounding area has been increasing. Initially, the increase is incredibly subtle which makes ignore it. But, after I spent most of my attention on [Scan], I finally sensed it.
Then, I spent most of the night comparing the data of death energy from different hours.
Look and behold, it is indeed increasing. It has also been increasing with faster speed every passing hour. Let’s say the increase of death energy ten hours ago is 0.1% per hour. Then, right now, it would’ve reached around 0.2% per hour.
I simply can’t fathom how the death energy density could increase on its own. It simply didn’t give any face to the law of energy conversions.
Those increases in death energy would also help strengthen the surrounding zombies. According to my calculation, if they continued to wander aimlessly like what they do currently. Around one week later, those zombies would begin to evolve en masse, with the strength of weaker zombies increased by a realm.
At that ti, zombies at the mortal level would’ve risen to Martial Apprentice level. anwhile, the zombies at Martial Apprentice level would rise to Martial Master level. Basically, any human gathering group without an awakened will be fucked real hard.
But, it’s not too important for . A higher average level just ans more effective point gathering speeds. Especially with Martial Grandmaster level Alicia holding the fort.
What raised my concern are those zombies that’s also at the Martial Grandmaster levels. Although rare, my [Scan] could detect around ten of them just within the 5 kiloters range limit of my [Scan].
I even pushed everything else and spent most of the day elongating my [Scan] to envelop more grounds. From a whole day of hard work at controlling my [Scan], I found around 20 zombies at Martial Grandmaster level. Five of them have reached the upper level of the Martial Grandmaster stage, which is around the sa level as the current Alicia.
Around two weeks to a month later, five Martial Saint or Qi Refining stage zombies will be born. anwhile, on the human side within my [Scan] radius, only Alicia alone has the chance to catch after their level.
I could indeed help kill those zombies, but if they keep on leveling at such a speed. Eventually, the gain from handling those zombies myself won’t outweigh the cost of the points I spent to create the attack capable of killing them. Especially with how the lightning punishnt of this world is incredibly weak.
I sohow missed the cultivation world’s lightning punishnt and spatial crack. Although they initially give a massive headache, after being abused by Ren Qingquan, that thing has turned into an overpowered ans of attack.
Wait, I am getting side tracked. Have I gone old already? How co I suddenly entered a nostalgia mode.
It’s not like I can’t return to the Cultivation World. With just a thought, I could transfer most of my attention to Ren Qingquan.
Anyway, I needed to prepare several plans to help strengthen Alicia’s group. That ans I need to be more involved. For example, I’ll need to warn Alicia of the zombie’s impending mass evolution.
Sigh, I thought I could just sit back and wait as Alicia’s group turned stronger on their own to contribute more daily inco for . Guess there is no such a thing as a free lunch, huh?
I quickly got into action and created a warning notification.
[Warning! The System has detected an increase in death energy. Based on calculation, within less than a week the strength of weaker zombies would’ve increased by a realm. System has also calculated that a Qi Refining stage zombie will be born within your vicinity between two weeks or one month later.]
Once I gave those warnings, I refocused my attention on Alicia.
At this ti, more than a day has passed and Alicia’s group once again has left the school grounds. For this hunting trip, her group consisted of eight awakeners with varying strength and a dozen relatively strong normal humans.
While they are walking in the area they’ve cleaned from zombies, Alicia suddenly pauses upon seeing my warning.
She frowned and asked, “System, what’s this Martial Grandmaster and Qi Refining stage thing you’re talking about?”
I saw everyone paused when they heard Alicia suddenly talking to herself.
Urghhh, even though they’re staring at Alicia and knew she was talking to , I still felt a second hand embarrassnt.
Steadying myself, I replied to her question.
[Those are the nas of martial arts and cultivation realms. With increased level, they can be separated as the following based on whether the user followed the martial arts path or the cultivation path:
Mortal
Martial Apprentice/ Early Body Tempering
Martial Master/ Middle Body Tempering
Martial Grandmaster/ Late Body Tempering
Martial Saint/ Qi Refining
Martial Lord/ Foundation Building
Martial Emperor/ Golden Core
There are a few other stages you’re currently intelligible to see. With every level up, the practitioner will gain an increase in life level which grants increased lifespan and power.]
I added the last part definitely not because I am lazy, but I just don’t want to info dump her. I will repeat it once more. It’s definitely not because I am lazy.
