If you only look at the numbers, it might not seem like much. But considering that this would normally take at least half a year to learn, and he achieved it in just under six days, it's actually a lot. Like, really a lot.
While Christian was also reminded that the skill High School Knowledge became harder to level up as it neared level ten, and the same could happen with the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu skill, as it didn't have a basic prefix.
It was still acceptable. As even with this, his level was now nearly at the purple belt, from what he had looked through.
The important point is that his high comprehension, combined with his improved body, was game-changing. He became much happier, almost forgetting about the math teacher. But of course, he didn't in the end.
Not to mention, the experience he gained was nearly equivalent to that of an intermediate skill, so farming experience for leveling didn't slow down and remained at the same pace, with his level now reaching thirteen.
Christian, who was happy at that time because of the many things he had discovered, was suddenly struck by an idea.
Researching.
His bodybuilding skill was doing two things now: performing exercises and adjusting them as it researched the optimal way. So, he was gaining more experience.
So while his progress with his current skills, were good, he couldn't help but get greedy after discovering this new mechanism within the Idle System, which he had uncovered through his bodybuilding skill.
He felt that taking advantage of these openings in the Idle System, which provided more experience, was better and more effective.
It might not have been the normal way, the Idle System was meant to be used, but he still felt like it was a steal, like buying one and getting one for free.
And how should he do his research? Christian got the answer easily.
He wanted to create the strongest hand-to-hand martial art.
In cultivation novels, there are sometimes techniques that only the protagonist receives, which are naturally the strongest.
It comes in many shapes and forms, but in the end, the protagonist always obtains the strongest technique.
But that's in cultivation novels—what about martial arts novels?
There would be very strong techniques, but rarely, if ever, would there be a single strongest technique. Or maybe the protagonist would develop one.
But the important point here is the famous idiom often repeated in these novels.
There is no strongest martial art, only the strongest martial artist.
So it's not the technique itself that is the strongest, but because of the one who uses it, it becomes the strongest.
Then, what about the real world?
When Christian began searching for which martial art to learn. They would talk about the strongest points of each martial art, its advantages, and so on..
So, that means even after extensive research up to modern times, there are many martial arts techniques, but each has its weak points and disadvantages.
Even if a martial art didn't have disadvantages, another one would have a point that was stronger, and so on.
Christian now wanted to challenge the phrase about the strongest martial artist.
He wanted to be the strongest one, but he also wanted to have the strongest martial art.
He admitted that maybe he was being greedy, and he also thought that focusing on a couple of martial arts might be better. After all, in many novels, those who don't specialize are often just jack-of-all-trades.
Well, not always, as sometimes they beautify it by calling it "well-rounded," but it means the same thing. He doesn't have that something unique and exclusive to him.
He could become someone similar—someone known for having average martial arts.
But he still wanted to give it a try anyway.
Maybe in the future, if he gained some supernatural power, these kinds of martial arts might become irrelevant. But he still wanted to pursue it; he wanted the strongest possible technique.
After all, in the end, it's every man's dream.
He was greedy, but maybe the Idle System gave him many practice slots to help him realize his greed after all.
Finishing his reminiscing and summarizing, and returning to the present.
While Christian was still greedy and wanted to develop the strongest martial art, he didn't start immediately. He wanted to be realistic, working logically and efficiently.
After gaining sufficient fighting ability, he could start then anyway.
His school plans and the findings in his Idle System didn't let Christian forget his initial goal.
The first was to repay his sister, and to have the money needed to do so.
And after these five days, Christian now had about fifty thousand.
It was really like the famous snowball effect; once the initial amount grew, making money became a lot easier.
But as carefulness was his motto, Christian also decided to start withdrawing some money from his trading account.
With the final goal of equalizing the amounts in his bank account and trading account.
And most importantly, he was close to the amount his sister had told him to have.
He just needed one more week, and he would reach the hundred thousand goal she had set.
Then finally, she should listen to him and stop working for that shit company.
Thinking of his sister, Christian was happy that he would finally be able to lift some of the burdens from her shoulders.
But putting his happy thoughts aside.
Christian started to write the article for his math teacher, with the file of evidence attached, preparing it to be ready for use at any time.
While it took some time, finishing the article and summarizing the evidence made Christian feel like a huge weight had finally been lifted from his shoulders.
The last five days, despite the exciting and not so ordinary things happening, were by no means enjoyable for Christian.
