章 7: Survival: law of the jungle
Standing on a steep cliff, Situ Feng, *Use of Feng because past life and this life name have conflicts* Seemed to be lots in thought as he observed the vast territory in the distance.
"Xiaohe! Do you think we should start to fight others and increase our combat experience after all our practice is not increasing as fast as it should?" Situ looked at the maid standing beside him and spoke.
In fact, it had been half a year since he reached the peak of rank three but the methods he found to break through to the next rank, made him hesitate.
He could see that inner Qi was necessary to be formed later on, and the only way for it to be strong was to make sure the foundation was strong enough.
The first three ranks indeed increased his strength until he felt his body had already reached a limit, the next stage had to be from the fourth to the sixth stage.
In this stage, it was all about producing inner Qi, and thus the bones, muscles, and internal organs would be the key focus.
After they were all strengthened to the peak level, he would have then taken a step towards the late stage of martial artist rank.
In this stage, which starts from the 7th to the 9th stage, he would be capable of releasing inner Qi outside the body.
But he had some dissatisfaction with what he had already achieved and looking into the distance, he thought about the most important way to sharpen his martial arts technique that he had not even bothered to name due to the low level.
Xiaohe had also managed to gain some advice from Situ and in their hunting incorporated more other stone texts into her comprehension to improve her technique, allowing her strength to increase.
She thus did not believe the nonsense he was spewing from his mouth at the moment, "Young master, awe going to steal stone texts?"
When the question was asked straight, black lines appeared on Situ's face as he faced the distance, and he secretly cursed in his heart. "This woman is secretly going to spoil my legacy if she keeps speaking like this in the future. What steal? I was going to borrow them after we defeated the opponents."
With such thought in his mind, he did not dare say anything as he knew that Xiaohe would not be convinced by some politician's tactics.
He sighed and just looked at her, before turning around, "We should probably pack up the important stuff. We won't get this done quickly."
He moved away faster so as not to give her a chance to embarrass him again, and she was not far off, obviously, she had also entered the third level. With the resources present, it was not that difficult to break through in the beginning levels, and it seemed she had some good potential.
It is also the reason that his parents left her to take care of him, but he never figured out where she came from as he also never asked.
He treated her like a sister and it is also probably the reason she was bold enough to hit him with facts when he started bullshitting.
Or to be more precise, she was the rational one, as he seemed to be always causing trouble. The best case was the day he first achieved the first level of martial rank, his power had increased so much from being just an ordinary kid, and even with the memories from his past life, he could barely feel the urge to vent and went in the forest to hunt.
This resulted in him getting almost killed even though he succeeded in taking down the beast, which seemed just normal and the size of a wolf from his past life, he learned an important lesson.
But this was like an entertainment-level event for Xiaohe as she always laughed at him even up to now, he tries to avoid doing stupid things to trigger her memories or she would burst into laughter.
He probably never expected it and thus put more effort into improving his martial arts, until the current state he is in, even though the number of insights he got from the stone tablets all around this area their parents abandoned them, he still did not seem that confident with taking the step to the fourth level.
All of this is only based on the fact that he wants to make his foundation even firmer, but that would require deep accumulation and that can only come from visiting other places.
This region had been swept by the two and the current Xiaohe can crush her several months back without even a sweat.
It can show just how much they have taken and Situ always had a feeling that something was wrong, they were almost all the children in the town, thus if this occurs on a large scale, it is more like a farm for martial artists. But why?
He asked himself these questions several times and knowing he could not get an answer with this pitiful strength, he stopped bothering with the issue.
That was right, the weak should not concern themselves with the problems of the strong, since they have no actual help to offer.
So what if he knew?
With this in his heart, he calmed down and realized he had to focus on his current self and what those on his level should care about.
As a martial artist still under the nine ranks, he had to focus on them and each rank has a certain importance thus advisable to take his time pondering over it, strengthening the foundation, and not blindly trying to achieve breakthroughs.
He was only at the third rank but seemed to have also understood this principle, so he cast his eyes on the wider world.
Intuition told him that there were those who probably had the same thoughts as him, or even more sinister, trying to destroy the stones after checking the content.
Regardless of how young someone was, it did not rule out the possibility of their intelligence being higher than most.
But he was not worried at this thought, rather become secretly excited.
