Observe Basic Stance Notes, Cognition Point +2
Observe Basic Stance Notes, Cognition Point +2
...
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
Li Yun sat in a quiet corner outside the Ren 95 Courtyard, holding the Basic Stance Notes given to him by Xu Qing, while looking at the System panel.
Host: Li Yun
Age: 16
Aptitude: Fifth Grade
Identity: Tianwu Sect, Outer Sect Disciple of Ren 95 Courtyard
Realm: Postnatal, Body Tempering First Layer
Martial Art: Basic Stance (Proficient 95%)
Martial Dao Cognition Points: 36
In three days, or to be precise, after returning from Xu Qing's residence that night, his Basic Stance directly entered the Proficient Realm using the cognition points gained from observing the Cangyun Residence plaque.
If he had truly followed the agreement, he could have gone directly to Cangyun Residence the next morning to find Zhang Cong and fulfill the promise.
However, he wasn't that foolish.
With only Fifth Grade Aptitude and no background, achieving initial mastery of Basic Stance in a month, breaking the fastest record in history, was already surprising enough.
And then becoming proficient directly overnight.
Wasn't it obvious something was fishy?
Therefore, he decided to take it easy for now.
But he didn't expect that after Basic Stance became proficient, the efficiency of gaining cognition points by observing others practicing martial arts within the Ren 95 Courtyard would greatly decrease.
Adding point by point was one thing.
Observing for over half an hour wouldn't even add five points, which was less than the gains from his own cultivation.
After studying the System, he understood that it was because the gap between him and his fellow Disciples in Ren 95 Courtyard was too large, making it difficult for them to provide him with any further assistance.
To gain more cognition points, he had to find things at a higher level than himself to observe as much as possible.
So, he simply left the Ren 95 Courtyard and found a quiet corner by himself to study the notes given by Xu Qing.
It had to be said, these Basic Stance Notes were indeed quite good.
With careful observation, it could bring him a gain of about 2 cognition points per minute.
After three days.
Relying on these Basic Stance Notes, he had almost filled the proficiency level of the Proficient Realm.
This was still with many people around and the need for him to eat and sleep, making it impossible to observe non-stop for twenty-four hours.
Otherwise, at this efficiency, he would have already directly reached the Minor Completion Realm.
Even so, he was very satisfied.
He planned to take it easy for another two days, waiting for about five days in total, before going to Cangyun Residence to meet Zhang Cong.
In the afternoon.
After observing the Basic Stance Notes for nearly four hours and accumulating over four hundred cognition points again, Li Yun started cultivating once more.
The cognition points were directly cleared, and after careful comprehension.
Basic Stance officially entered the Minor Completion Realm, and the proficiency was pushed to 2%.
Upon reaching the Minor Completion Realm, his understanding of Basic Stance became even deeper.
He immediately couldn't wait to perform it.
From the first stance to the twelfth stance.
It was clearly done in one go, without any awkwardness.
Standing on the ground, striking a pose, there was even an indescribable charm emanating from him.
It felt as if a root extended from his feet, connecting to the earth, and some kind of energy was flowing into his body from the earth.
His qi and blood roared within his body, and his bones vibrated.
Suddenly, there were bursts of crisp booming sounds.
Li Yun couldn't help but be stunned, and then as if remembering something, he quickly pulled up the System panel again.
Upon looking, he couldn't help but be filled with pleasant surprise.
His cultivation, which was originally marked as Body Tempering First Layer, had actually risen by one level, reaching Body Tempering Second Layer.
Li Yun exclaimed, "Good heavens!"
It wasn't that Body Tempering Second Layer was incredibly powerful; in fact, compared to Body Tempering First Layer, it just meant gaining some strength and becoming more robust.
But this was genuine progress!
Moreover, it was progress achieved without taking any pills, truly real and substantial.
The feeling it brought was quite comfortable.
It made him wonder if he should just take the two qi blood pills Zhang Cong rewarded him with to further boost his cultivation.
But with just a fleeting thought, he restrained himself.
It wasn't that he didn't want to raise his cultivation Realm, but that he didn't want to waste the qi blood pills like this.
At his current efficiency, Basic Stance would soon be perfected.
Cultivating by taking qi blood pills with perfected Basic Stance had a completely different effect compared to taking them with Basic Stance at the Minor Completion Realm.
The former could utilize almost one hundred percent of the qi blood pill's medicinal effect, while the latter would absorb at most fifty percent, with the remaining fifty percent dissipating through his pores.
Taking two pills would be equivalent to wasting more than one pill for nothing.
One qi blood pill was worth a hundred taels of silver.
He wasn't the kind of rich person who could treat money like dirt and casually squander a hundred taels of silver like copper coins.
"Body Tempering Second Layer, and your Basic Stance has actually reached Minor Completion?"
Just as Li Yun was secretly sighing about why he couldn't transmigrate into a rich family, suddenly, a surprised voice rang out.
Li Yun was startled and quickly turned around.
Not far away, about ten meters out, a Mysterious Woman in white had appeared at some point.
She looked to be at most twenty-three or twenty-four years old.
The first impression upon seeing her was stunning beauty!
Not only did this Mysterious Woman have a tall figure and graceful curves, but she also naturally possessed a divine face that even filters from his previous life couldn't match.
She was a complete beauty.
Moreover, her temperament was excellent; standing there, she naturally exuded a very ethereal and refined aura.
"May I ask who you are...?"
Li Yun didn't dare to be negligent; he knew this person was likely a master, otherwise, she couldn't have appeared so silently.
"My name is Zhang Ruohan, from the Inner Sect Vermilion Bird Courtyard!"
Li Yun was filled with respect: "So it's Inner Sect Senior Sister Zhang Ruohan. I am an Outer Sect Disciple of Ren 95 Courtyard. I pay my respects, Senior Sister Zhang Ruohan."
Li Yun wasn't someone who couldn't walk when he saw a beautiful woman, much less someone who would presumptuously tease an Inner Sect Disciple just because she was pretty.
To be able to become an Inner Sect Disciple, she was basically an Innate master.
A person at this level, if slightly angered, could make him lie in bed for half a year just by poking him with a finger.
"Ren 95 Courtyard?"
"What a coincidence! So, you and my younger brother Zhang Chu are fellow Disciples?"
A sharp glint flashed in Zhang Ruohan's eyes.
Waves rose in her heart.
Her own younger brother Zhang Chu had just entered the Sect this year. As a biological older sister, she naturally had to come and take a look, lest some ignorant people bully her brother.
It was just that she had happened to be out on a Sect mission in the previous period and only returned today. She didn't even bother to submit the mission first and came over here instead.
She never expected such a coincidence, first encountering a fellow Disciple from her brother's courtyard, and this fellow Disciple seemed somewhat extraordinary!
A person like this, no matter what, she had to make connections with him for her brother.
And Li Yun was also stunned.
"Senior Sister Zhang Ruohan is actually Zhang Chu's older sister?"
"What a coincidence?"
Zhang Ruohan smiled, her smile was beautiful, like a flower.
"It is indeed a coincidence, even I didn't expect it."
"How about this, if you're free, could I trouble you to make a trip for me and help me find Zhang Chu? I'll take you two for a walk around the Inner Sect, how does that sound?"
