Chapter 100: Awakening a Special Ability Again
To the species that were physically strong by default, they naturally preferred close combat.
This way, they could use both divine power and their physical strength, thereby exhibiting even greater combat power.
Tigers were exactly like that. They were stronger in close combat.
The White Tiger Battle Art was split into three stages. Mastering the first stage would increase the might of the cultivator’s attacks by 50%, be it in close combat or ranged combat.
Mastering the second stage gave him a threefold increase.
What kind of concept was a threefold increase?
If one were to liken it to Wang Hu’s shoulder height and take five ters as half a cultivation realm’s stage, at a shoulder height of 15 ters, Wang Hu’s combat power—inclusive of his divine power and his physical strength—would only be twice as much as his at a shoulder height of 10 ters.
Every difference of five ters—in other words, half a cultivation realm’s stage—was more or less like this, where his combat strength would double that of the previous.
This would only change when his shoulder height reached 50 ters, where his strength would double every 10 ters instead.
White Tiger Battle Art’s second stage gave his strength a threefold increase. This was equivalent to him having a shoulder height of 10 ters but possessing strength that he would only have at a shoulder height of 16 to 17 ters.
How could that not be powerful?
The third stage could even give him a fivefold increase, thereby allowing him to possess strength that he would only have when his shoulder height grew to approximately 21 ters while still at a shoulder height of 10 ters.
When matched further with his two great special abilities, the effect was self-evident.
The Wind-Riding Divine Art was similarly split into three stages.
The first stage increased his flight speed by approximately 50% and his speed of reflexes by 20%.
The second stage gave his flight speed an approximately twofold increase and increased his speed of reflexes by 50%.
The third stage gave his flight speed an approximately threefold increase and his speed of reflexes a twofold increase.
While it seed like it was a far cry from Extre Agility Ti’s third stage and couldn’t even compare to its second stage, the two weren’t supposed to be compared that way at all.
Comparing the two would be unfair to the Wind-Riding Divine Art.
Besides, once he successfully learned and cultivated the Wind-Riding Divine Art, he would be able to use it in tandem with Extre Agility Ti, thereby increasing its might.
The only sha was that his original idea of using Extre Agility Ti after using his speed special ability to give his speed an extra fourfold increase seed to have been shattered.
He gave the beginning of Wind-Riding Divine Art a little test—it didn’t work.
It seed like the two were only additive, not multiplicative.
However, Wang Hu wasn’t too filled with regrets either. Extre Agility Ti was already imbalanced enough. The fact that it had an additive effect was already pretty good. If it had a multiplicative effect, it wouldn’t be logical anymore.
Besides, apart from that particular aspect, he was already fast enough. He was confident that nobody could beat him when it ca to speed. Thus, he didn’t need to feel any regrets there.
After a mont’s thought, without much hesitation, he decided to focus on cultivating White Tiger Battle Art first, with Wind-Riding Divine Art being secondary instead.
After all, he was already fast enough. Ironically, his power was currently the weakest among all of his abilities.
Without further delay, he consud a pill and started to cultivate his divine body.
No matter what, the divine body was one’s true foundation instead. It was also the most important and the biggest primary focus.
After a while, he took a look at Big Treasure and Little Treasure—who had fallen asleep after Silly Girl put them to bed—and continued to cultivate with peace of mind.
He cultivated all the way until it was midnight. Only then did he stop and take a ntal look at the Map of the Universe.
The number had increased from 0.99 to 1.
He could light up the third light dot now.
He was full of anticipation. Every ti he reached this point, he would undoubtedly be elated because the lighting up of each light dot represented a great increase in his combat power.
I wonder what kind of special ability it would be this ti.
A brief thought later, his deep and serene gaze flickered, and he resisted the urge.
A woman must always be present to witness the crucial monts whenever a man exhibited his charm, of course.
More than ten minutes later, when he saw Silly Girl coming out and getting ready to cultivate, he imdiately transford into a streak of gold and flew right up to her.
“Baijun,” said Wang Hu. As though nothing had happened in the day, he called out to her as gently and dearly as always.
Di Baijun, who had a frosty look on her countenance, didn’t even spare him a glance. She turned away and held her hands behind her back. Her actions overflowed with an air of dominance and were exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
“What’s the matter?”
Her cold, haughty voice brimd with a sense of rejection that pushed people away, and she let out several icy snorts inwardly. What a shaless jerk he was.
He had made her so angry in the day, and yet now, he was actually approaching her as though nothing had happened. There were no words to describe the extent of his shalessness.
No, perhaps that shaless jerk hadn’t even taken the matter earlier in the day to heart at all.
When she thought of it that way, another wave of anger seed to surge up within her again. She hastily drove the thought away. She had already made up her mind during the day that she would just hang that jerk and give him a good whacking one day.
It wasn’t worth getting angry over him. Ignore him; she would just ignore him for now.
Wang Hu was also ignoring sothing—that frosty aura of hers. With a gentle gaze, he admired his wife.
My wife is just so pretty that she’s practically oozing with beauty.?Wang Hu thought proudly to himself.
With a smile, he replied, “Nothing much. I just ca to discuss with you our plan regarding the tigers after we get back.”
With Silly Girl, conversation topics ca readily to him off the top of his head.
True enough… upon hearing the phrase ‘our plan regarding the tigers’, Di Baijun’s gaze flickered, and she curbed the urge to leave. Now that she had developed the notion of talking to Wang Hu, she asked coldly, “What’s the plan?”
“Baijun, both you and I have attained the Divine Body Realm now. I think we should speed up the tigers’ developnt,” replied Wang Hu seriously without any hesitation.
Di Baijun looked thoughtful. It seed like that was indeed the case. She developed so interest though her countenance remained icy-cold; she didn’t want to show that jerk any amicability at all. She said haughtily, “Tell more.”
“We should search out all the Transformation Realm cultivators in our territory and bring them under our control. Firstly, it can indirectly strengthen the tigers as a clan. Secondly, without them around, the tigers in the territory can also develop in a safer environnt.” Wang Hu told her the plans that he had already thought of a long ti ago.
Di Baijun considered his suggestion seriously. After concurring with his suggestion, she said aloofly and imposingly, “Alright, I’ll leave the matter to you.”
“Okay. Don’t worry, Baijun.” Wang Hu agreed to it right away.
“By the way, China gave so gifts when I broke through back then. They’re pills that can help to speed up one’s cultivation. We’ll take half each, Baijun.”
As Wang Hu spoke, he also brought out five tiny bottles that contained 40 pills.
Di Baijun raised an eyebrow. Without even pausing to think about it, she said, “I don’t need it.”
“Just keep them with you for now. Even if you don’t intend to use it, you can still give them to Old Third, Su Ling, or future subordinates as rewards,” replied a stubborn Wang Hu as he forcefully pushed the five little bottles into Silly Girl’s face. He looked as though he would never give up until she accepted them.
Di Baijun’s temper cooled a little, and she unwillingly accepted them.
A smile imdiately ford on Wang Hu’s face. He paused for a mont, and then—with a sowhat hesitant expression yet as though he couldn’t stop himself—he asked, “Did sothing make you unhappy in the day, Baijun?”
At once, Di Baijun warned herself.?Don’t get angry. Don’t get angry. It isn’t worth getting angry over that shaless jerk.
However, when she thought of how she was already close to driving herself mad from anger and yet the jerk still looked like he was completely unaware of what was going on; Di Baijun couldn’t help but feel awfully upset, and she felt an urge to beat soone up.
However, she restrained herself and replied with haughtiness and disdain, “What a joke. What does my unhappiness have anything to do with you?”
Wang Hu let out a soft sigh. He said with utter dejection, “You don’t need to keep it a secret from , Baijun. Neither will you be able to. Even if the whole world couldn’t tell whether you’re angry or not, do you think I won’t be able to?
“But you should also know that I’m rather dense when it cos to certain matters. Maybe I had unintentionally done sothing to displease you. At tis like that, you have to let know. I will change my ways.”
Di Baijun took a deep breath and turned away from him completely. Her frail and delicate shoulders were trembling.
I mustn’t get angry. It’s useless even if I do. That shaless jerk doesn’t know anything at all. I’ll only end up stewing in silence by myself. It’s completely useless.
Di Baijun, you’re the Paragon of Tigers. You must remain calm. You must remain calm.
She imdiately warned herself over and over again.
But… what do you an when you said that nobody in the world would be able to tell except for you?
You’re exactly the blindest one in the world.
What do you an by ‘dense when it cos to certain matters’? What do you an by ‘unintentionally’? What do you an by saying that you’ll change?
To think a shaless jerk like you have the cheek to say such things in front of —!
No, I can’t stay here any longer. It isn’t ti for to beat up that jerk yet.
I’ll wait for a while more until he’s spent so ti cultivating his special abilities, and I’ll wait until I’ve completely mastered my special abilities.
Just as she was about to leave, Wang Hu had already put on an even sadder and even more dejected look on his face. He said, “I apologize if I’ve really done anything bad, Baijun. I’ll leave now.”
Then, he turned and started to take a step forward. However, he had only taken a step when a mysterious aura arose around him.
A startled look ca over Di Baijun’s countenance. Unable to care about anything else, she imdiately turned around and looked at the jerk. Astonishnt surfaced in her eyes. How could this be?
Bloodline awakening!
No, it was the awakening of a special ability!
The third awakening of a special ability!
A sense of incredulity surged up in her. This…
Even with her knowledge and experience, she couldn’t help but find this amazing.
That jerk didn’t possess any kind of powerful bloodline. How was he able to awaken special abilities one after another?
The first two were even awfully extraordinary and had already tamorphosed and evolved.
She was still caught in her mont of stupefaction when Wang Hu’s expression turned serious. He said quickly, “Baijun, I feel like so kind of power is about to awaken. I’ll have to trouble you to guard while I cultivate.”
Then, he sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes. The mysterious aura beca increasingly stronger.
His words snapped Di Baijun back to reality with a start, and she subconsciously let out a light snort.
Why do I have to guard you just because you say so? How shaless.
She glared at him in dissatisfaction. Then, her brows drew together a little again as she pondered over the sa question again.
That shaless jerk’s aptitude is really…
Apart from aptitude, she honestly didn’t know how she could explain it anymore.
Aptitude was absolutely the most unreasonable thing in the whole universe.
Why had it awakened at this point, though?
What had happened just now?
Could it be that sothing had triggered him?
She thought back to every single detail of the events just now. It seed like the jerk had misunderstood sothing and had been affected by her attitude, resulting in him feeling dejected…
Could it be that his feelings of dejection had triggered it?!
The mont the thought occurred to her—while she felt alard and unsettled, she also felt rather speechless.
Had he awakened a special ability just by being triggered by feelings of dejection?
Even with her fully-awakened White Tiger bloodline and her experience as the Paragon of Tigers in the Wild World, she couldn’t help but be a little jealous at the thought.
That jerk was practically unreasonable.
Everything about him was unreasonable.
She would need to hurry up and master her own special ability after this, as well as cultivate so other special abilities, too.
Now that the jerk had awakened another special ability, he would definitely beco even stronger. She mustn’t let down her guard. She had to have a foolproof plan.
Her frustration cald down after a while. As she watched that calm and quiet visage, she felt like giving him a slap.
He might look decent at the mont, but all he did were ridiculous things. All he knew was how to anger her.
To think he even said he could see through the best. Ha, you’re the blindest person ever.
The more she looked at him, the more she thought and the more disdainful she felt toward him. How she wished she could stomp on him ruthlessly for a few days and a few nights.
