Bab 819: 686, Practice Hard a Hundred Times [First Update]_1
Di Tian was somewhat puzzled, "But how do I know to what extent I must achieve this simple standard?"
Lin Yi, "It's very simple, listen to advice, follow it, and test it out. Then you'll know the result. For example, what I just said, if someone tells you that doing a hundred push-ups will let you surpass me in strength, all you need to do is to try it and see, right?"
Di Tian's eyes widened.
"Can't I immediately determine whether someone's advice is viable?"
"No, the principle of this reward is that practice reveals the truth. The original intention of listening to advice is to follow along no matter how outrageous the proposal from the other party is."
Di Tian nodded helplessly.
Lin Yi raised his hand and flicked the light orb representing the Gold Intermediate reward toward the other party.
He added one last thing, "Remember, to make better use of this reward, you have to set higher goals, define the effort required to achieve those goals as simpler, but both goals and effort must maintain a delicate balance and also have a certain connection. Neither can be too exaggerated, nor can they be completely unrelated."
Di Tian nodded, "I've got it!"
Lin Yi, "What's the use of you remembering? I was speaking to your companions. You're the one who listens to advice; they are the ones who give it."
Di Tian's face turned an awkward shade as he looked toward Gu Yuena and the others.
Gu Yuena and the rest, seeing this, nodded immediately, "Remembered... remembered."
"So, my lords, could you please set a small goal and give me some advice quickly?"
Di Tian said with some anticipation. To tell the truth, he was a bit excited; just the example that Lin Yi had given was enough to keep him awake all night, although the example Lin Yi gave didn't count.
Gu Yuena tilted her head, thought for a moment, and said, "If you just blow air a hundred times, you'll be able to develop Iron Lungs that can blow away a mountain with a single breath."
A muscle twitched in Di Tian's eye.
Although the lord had mimicked the example very well, why did the goal and methodology of this effort feel somewhat devalued?
Seeing Di Tian unmoved, Gu Yuena said with dissatisfaction, "Hurry up and do it."
"Yes!"
Di Tian didn't dare not do it. He quickly puffed up his cheeks and blew air in front of him. He blew with a high frequency and each breath lasted a long time. Lin Yi even wanted to commend him that the guy really had impressive lung capacity.
However, by the time he got into the eighties, Di Tian was clearly struggling. His lips turned white, his complexion pale, and his body bowed down. The sound he made when drawing breath was like that of an old, worn-out bellows, grating to the ears.
Gu Yuena frowned, "Di Tian, if you give up now, you might as well go die."
It seemed Gu Yuena's threat worked. Di Tian sucked in a deep breath again, and Lin Yi could even see the air currents surging into his mouth.
The 90th, 91st, 92nd... 99th, 100th!
Di Tian finally reached the hundredth practice!
At that moment, something magical happened. Di Tian's once pallid face instantly turned rosy, his weary look became one of energy, and he looked at Gu Yuena in amazement, then opened his mouth wide.
This time, not only Lin Yi saw the air currents surge into his mouth, everyone clearly observed this scene of air flowing back in mid air. Di Tian's chest swelled, and after a brief pause, he blew out a breath.
In an instant, a wind force comparable to the Banana Fan swept over the area!
It was fortunate that Di Tian hadn't faced the crowd when blowing, or even Gu Yuena might not have been able to stand her ground. All the wind rushed toward Lin Yi's direction, though Lin Yi himself remained unmoved. The marble tiles on the platform were lifted piece by piece and smashed onto his body, turning into rubble. Even Di Tian himself was startled by the scene.
Despite not having blown toward the crowd, they still felt the effects. Everyone raised their hands to shield their faces, and Zi Ji couldn't help but shout at Gu Yuena, "My lord, when you set the goal for the boss to blow away a mountain, was there any specification about the size of the mountain?"
Gu Yuena frowned, "I said it offhand. What does the size of the mountain have to do with me?"
Zi Ji, "..."
Di Tian's breath gradually subsided, and the scene before him was in complete chaos.
Lin Yi, though sitting steadily, was covered in dirt and grime, but with a wave of his hand and a flash of rainbow light, the messy scene returned to its original state.
"It seems that listening to advice for the first time was quite successful. Your leader isn't too dumb—her proposal just now was pretty standard."
Hearing what Lin Yi said, Gu Yuena boasted with arms crossed, "I'm very smart, okay?"
Lin Yi fell silent for a moment before saying, "I take back what I just said."
Gu Yuena: "Hey!"
She huffily lowered her arms and turned her head to Bi Ji and the others, "You guys should also make a suggestion to Di Tian."
Zi Ji turned to look at Bi Ji, seemingly suggesting that Bi Ji should speak first, while Di Tian also appeared eager to hear what kind of suggestion Bi Ji would make.
After thinking for a bit, Bi Ji pointed at Di Tian: "Boss, if you fart a hundred times in a row, you'll develop an Iron Fart that can blow away a mountain!"
Di Tian turned to stone.
Instantly, Gu Yuena tapped Bi Ji on the head, "Copying my ideas now, can't you think of something original?"
Bi Ji, rubbing her head, looked completely thoughtless.
Gu Yuena then turned to Wang Qiu'er and Zi Ji, "Forget her, you two go ahead."
Zi Ji thought for a moment, then said, "Boss, if you stare at me for a hundred seconds non-stop, you'll fall in love with me."
Di Tian suddenly fell silent.
Gu Yuena also became silent.
Lin Yi, too, remained silent, and everyone at the scene fell into a hush.
Unable to hold back, Di Tian spoke, "Are you here to cause trouble?"
Zi Ji: "Is it wrong? Won't you give it a try?"
Di Tian shook his head, "No, I'm afraid it might actually work."
"????
Zi Ji's eyes widened, as if her heart was pierced by a hundred sharp knives.
"Auspicious Beast, it's your turn. Give us a more reliable suggestion."
Di Tian's gaze swept past Zi Ji and landed on Wang Qiu'er.
Wang Qiu'er raised her hand to her chin, pondering for a moment before saying, "Di Tian, if you clench your fist a hundred times, and each time you clench it you say 'change', you'll be able to develop the ability to produce a treasure in the palm of your hand with just a clench of your fist."
This proposal was indeed peculiar, sparking a sudden interest in Di Tian.
He began his first fist clench, following what Wang Qiu'er had said, and uttered a deep and powerful "change" from his mouth.
To be fair, whether it was Di Tian clenching his fist and saying 'change' now or him blowing air at nothing earlier, he looked quite the fool.
Luckily, this fist clenching didn't take much effort, and Di Tian sped up, achieving more than ninety clenches in a short while.
"Change!"
With the final clench, Di Tian shouted out "change".
