In this way, Long Tian continued to train for a few hours to get used to his improved body, and this time he was able to perform the first 7 postures much more smoothly than before, and only stopped at the 9th posture, which he could not complete.
Tian felt certain that he had mastered all the 50 postures in the first part of the Asura Body, and only due to the lack of precious Medicinal Materials and Spiritual Beasts meat, his physical fitness and vitality were still lacking, which limited his progress and prevented him from performing the rest of the postures !
As for Long Ruru, she was actually able to perform the first 15 postures because she was originally a Second-Level Martial Apprentice, so her physical fitness and vitality in her body were much greater than Tian's and met the requirements for performing more postures
But that didn't mean that it was simple or easy for her, on the contrary, her success in performing the training postures so quickly was only due to her Talent and iron will. These postures exhausted all of her body's vitality and energy to repair and strengthen its foundations, which was extremely painful for her, but after seeing the results, she eventually found that this pain was very comfortable
The same thing happened with Long Wan, she was able to feel her body's progress and improvement, a feeling that she had almost forgotten, so she continued to train like a madwoman and her pace had not slowed down until now, she was actually able to surpass Ruru and performed the first 20 postures perfectly
With this, Tian knew that her body, despite being injured, was much stronger than Ruru's body, who had broken through to the Second Level of the Martial Apprentice Realm a few weeks ago
As for his aunt Long Jia, Tian spoke to her at length and explained his strange ability and how he obtained it after he lost consciousness in the garden, he also tested it in front of her on some of her medicines which caused him to lose some Energy Points but made his aunt's eyes shine
She asked him about his ability a little more and after understanding what he needed she took out a small bag and handed it to him
" I had decided to buy you some Medicinal Herbs and Spiritual Beasts Meat with this money "
" But I think you might as well use it yourself "
" As for the new Technique, I already see that its results are quite amazing, but unfortunately I can't do it before I heal my body a little bit or else I will suffer from extremely severe pain and i will make my condition worse "
" Thank you for your concern Tian, I'll just be happy to see you guys progressing well "
After saying goodbye to his aunt, Tian returned to his room and after checking the bag she gave him, he found that it contained 1,000 White Spiritual Stones
Because he, Ruru, and Wan had been training so hard, he had to make three more fish cages and upgrade them to meet their needs after he felt that their Meat consumption had increased significantly, especially Long Wan, whose body seemed to be seeking compensation for years of starvation
With the Points he had previously spent on his aunt's medicine, Tian had lost most of his Energy Points and had almost nothing left
Tian directly absorbed 100 White Spiritual Stones, which made his Energy Points 510
He had also tried to upgrade Wan's Talent before, but a screen appeared in front of him saying that he needed 10000 energy points, so he sighed and decided to wait a bit
Tian checked his condition two days later, where he had successfully executed the 10th position and found that as follows
[Name] : Long Tian
[Introduction] : 12 years old, Human
[Status] : Level 1 Martial Apprentice (Healthy)
[Talent] : High Five-Stars (upgradable)
[Training Style] : Part 1 of Asura Body / Immortal (can be upgraded) Mastery None (can be upgraded)
[Energy Points] : 500
" My talent is five stars ! Mmm not bad I guess ?! "
" Huh ! Mastery upgrade ! "
Long Tian looked at his new state in a somewhat puzzled manner
He had learned some things about training and knew that mastering combat styles and techniques was divided into three stages: Basic, Flowing and Perfection
For Basic mastery, a fighter performed the style perfectly and achieved 100% of its effects
Flowing mastery meant transitioning between the movements and postures of the style smoothly, multiplying its natural effect by many times
As for Perfection, it was a stage that someone rarely achieved and he had no idea what made it special until now
" Eeeeh, it seems that this upgrade is more about my mastery of the Technique rather than the upgrade of the technique itself ? "
Tian thought about it for a while and seemed to have discovered a new feature of his ability
His ability can absorb Energy from special items like Spiritual Stones and then convert them into Energy Points that are later consumed to perform the upgrade process
He can upgrade pretty much everything from artifacts, herbs, powders and medicinal products, training techniques and even his mastery of them and maybe others as well !
This means that if I learn a specific technique, I won't need to be proficient in it anymore
I only need to practice it for a short period, then I can use the Energy Points to upgrade my mastery and cut short years or even decades of hard work
Tian looked at the points needed to upgrade his mastery to the basic level and found that it was 1000 Points
" It seems that my Energy Points are still not enough "
He then looked at the remaining stones in his hands and decided to wait a little while until he drew up a suitable plan to use the Energy Points and upgrade what he urgently needed in his first stage as a Martial Apprentice only and leave the rest for later when he had a surplus of points
" I haven't been able to perform the training moves yet, and here I am trying to upgrade the mastery already ? "
" Slowly, Tian ! Slowly and steadily, then the development will naturally reach a stage where it will resemble a huge tsunami and cannot be stopped ! "

Long Village Training Ground
At this moment, a group of teenagers around the age of 13-14 surrounded a beautiful girl with a lively build, and they continued to train and talk non-stop
Not far away from them, there was another group of slightly older youths practicing martial arts
One of them looked at the group of teenagers and especially the girl in the middle with a glint of hatred in his eyes
Well, it was Long Hao
He had been locked in the house by his father Long Fuji for a while and was only allowed out a few days ago
Just a few days after he felt happy after being released, he heard that Long Ruru and the others had returned from Black Snake City and Ruru turned out to have a High 4-Stars Talent !
This made him feel extremely jealous and upset for days
Well, it was all for two reasons: the first was that his Talent was a high two-stars and thus he felt jealous that she had a better Talent than him, and the second reason was that with her proficiency, she had already obtained the qualifications for the Black Snake Academy entrance seat that Elder Suny had promised to give her for free
The annual seats for entering the Academy were always extremely few and did not exceed ten in their village
He had originally wanted to obtain the seat and give it to a young man to join his faction, but all his plans evaporated in an instant
' Damn Long Tian ! '
' Damn Long Ruru ! '
' And also, Elder Suny, you old fool, why the hell did you mention this compensation ? '
Long Hai lowered his head and his eyes were red with anger
Grit his teeth and cursed Tian and Ruru, and even Elder Suny did not escape his hatred
" Long Ruru ! Did 5-star and 6-star Talents really appear in the test ? "
" Yes, Sister Ruru ! Tell us ! "
Ruru was in the field, surrounded by her childhood friends who continued to bombard her with questions
She thought for a while and then repeated what she had explained to her family and described the scene more vividly
" Wow ! "
" So amazing ! "
" How do you determine talents ??? "
" You don't know ? "
" Talents can be measured by the color and intensity of the light emitted by the testing stone "
" White represents one star, yellow two stars, then orange, red, green, cyan, blue, purple, gray and black, and the darker and more intense the color, the higher the grade "
Long Hai listened to the children's chatter and couldn't control his anger. He walked towards them and stood in front of them
" Long Ruru, you've secured a spot to join the Black Snake Academy but do you have the skills to qualify to go ? Or do you want to get beaten up and make our village lose face ! "
" Huh ? "
Ruru was initially surprised when she saw Long Hai advancing towards her and provoking her, but quickly a sharp light flashed in her eyes and her expression turned evil for a second before she quickly hid it and acted stupidly
' Hehe ! You beat my brother up and didn't look for you, and now you came to me ? '
Ruru thought to herself and then replied in a weak voice
" I have the ability … !? This has nothing to do with you anyway ! "
Long Hai became extremely angry after hearing her statement
" Who said it has nothing to do with me ? I'm also a member of Long Village ! "
" If you embarrass us in the Academy, how will we show our faces when we're in the city ? "
" Let me give you a chance to prove yourself, if you win against me, I'll admit that you're qualified, and if you lose, you'll give up your spot to me ! "
