He had it; he set his sights on a large tree in the courtyard.
This large tree clearly had some age to it, with a trunk large enough for one person to embrace, perfect for testing his punching power.
He circled to the back of the tree. "Hmm, this direction works. Even if I break it, the chances of being discovered are small."
He stood firm, not using his full strength, only about two or three tenths, and launched a punch.
With a "bang!" his fist slammed into the tree trunk.
The tree remained motionless, not even its leaves quivered.
"Huh! Although this punch didn't budge the tree, I didn't feel any pain either."
"Isn't the action of force mutual? Why no pain?"
"Could it be that my sense of touch and pain nerves have also weakened?"
"No, that's not right. When I punched just now, my fist surface touched the bark, and I could feel the unevenness of the bark."
He looked at his fist; there was no damage.
"It seems I can increase my strength. This time, I'll try with half my strength," he thought, and once again, he launched a punch.
With a "bang!" this time, the sound was much louder.
Although the trunk had no reaction, the leaves above his head clearly swayed.
He glanced at the bark again; the previous strike had actually broken the bark.
"Young Master, come back quickly! Your voice is too loud!"
Qing'er, leaning on the doorframe, called out softly.
Huang Ye also knew that sounds could travel far in the silent night, so he quickly darted to the wheelchair, pushed it, and returned to the room.
Closing the door, he looked at Qing'er.
"Didn't I tell you not to get up?"
"I was a little worried!"
"No need to worry, I have a sense of proportion."
Huang Ye helped Qing'er to the bedside. Qing'er was about to lie down on the bed.
"Wait, I'll carry you up!" Huang Ye had a flash of inspiration.
Qing'er's small face flushed. Although they had often shared a bed before, the Young Master was a fool back then.
Now that the Young Master was awake, she was somewhat shy.
Huang Ye paid no mind to this, directly scooping the sister up horizontally, even weighing her with his arm, and then placed her on the bed.
He felt Qing'er's body was very light. Qing'er was about 1.6 meters tall, with a figure that was neither fat nor thin.
Based on his experience of carrying rice in his previous life, this sister's weight should be around fifty kilograms.
It seemed his strength had significantly increased.
Previously, he had to use all his might to lift fifty kilograms of rice, but now he felt he could easily swing Qing'er around.
His current strength could lift at least three Qing'ers.
He hadn't expected to test his strength this way; going out earlier was truly a waste of time.
"Qing'er, do you know how much you weigh?"
"I don't know recently, but I measured it once before. That time it was forty-five kilograms, and my height was six feet nine."
"Uh! I don't think I asked for your height."
Huang Ye didn't care about this data. The units of measurement here were definitely different from his previous life; a general standard for the value was enough.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded from outside the courtyard, and he quickly dove under the covers.
"What's wrong?"
"Someone's outside."
The person stopped nearby but did not enter the small courtyard.
Huang Ye vaguely heard the voices outside.
"The sound just now seemed to come from this direction."
"It looks like there's nothing unusual. This is the Third Young Master's residence."
"Should we still go in and look?"
"No need. He's just a fool. Even if something happens, no one will care!"
"Let's go. We just need to ensure the safety of other areas."
The two finished speaking and left in a hurry.
"Qing'er, can you hear what they're saying?"
"It sounds like someone is talking, but I can't hear what they're saying."
It seemed his hearing had also greatly improved.
This was not bad. Although Transmigration didn't give him a System, it comprehensively improved his physical qualities.
A System was nothing more than something that added skills, issued tasks, and gave gift packages upon completion.
Although a System could skip the process of Cultivation and progress, it also lost a lot of fun.
As long as he worked hard, he wouldn't necessarily be worse than System users.
Now he had a solid foundation; as long as he was willing to learn, he could escape his current unfavorable situation.
"Qing'er, who taught you your martial arts?"
"All those guards taught me. In the beginning, I secretly watched them practice martial arts."
"Later, when I was discovered, they saw I was young and didn't say anything, just allowed me to watch from the side."
"Sometimes they even taught me a few moves. Actually, my martial arts are very ordinary, just some simple self-defense techniques."
Huang Ye was a little disappointed. He had thought Qing'er might have a martial arts Secret Manual that he could also read.
"Young Master, you didn't practice martial arts when you were little, did you?"
"I don't know. I have no memory of it."
"Just now, I saw your punch in the courtyard; it was very fast and seemed very powerful. Even the leaves swayed. This is not something an ordinary person can do."
"Although it's a bit weaker than those guards, the difference isn't big, and they are all Martial Artists who have practiced martial arts since childhood."
"You've been lying in bed for five years, and you have this strength as soon as you wake up. It's really strange."
"Haha, it means your Young Master is not an ordinary person."
"Mm, Young Master is the best, Young Master is the most excellent."
After speaking, she unceremoniously pressed her delicate body against Huang Ye, and even the pain seemed to lessen.
"Young Master, please take N婢. N婢 doesn't ask for any status, only to serve you for a lifetime."
Huang Ye was stunned. This girl seemed very forward-thinking.
"Qing'er, your injury hasn't healed yet."
"It's fine, I can endure it."
"You see, you're already reacting!"
Huang Ye thought to himself, "I'm a normal person. If you press against me like this and I don't react, wouldn't I be a eunuch?"
It was just that this girl was too enthusiastic, disregarding her pain.
"Qing'er, let's talk about it after your injury heals. I've also just recovered and haven't adapted yet."
"Alright, then in a few days. As long as Young Master is willing to have me, that's enough."
Huang Ye had no way to refuse Qing'er's unreasonable request.
Although he didn't know what she was thinking, having protected him for so many years, the Xiao Yatou must have a deep attachment to the Huang Ye of her childhood.
If it weren't for his Transmigration into this body, this girl would very likely have protected him for a lifetime.
This was a debt owed by the previous owner, and since he inherited this body, he had to repay the debt.
Actually, this was not a strange thing in modern society.
He didn't know how this society judged such matters; he just had to do his best.
The next morning, Qing'er's pain had mostly subsided.
Although walking was still a bit uncomfortable, she could get out of bed and move around.
Yue'er still brought a food box early in the morning. Huang Ye naturally wouldn't eat it, still dutifully eating those pastries.
A peaceful day passed. As night fell, Huang Ye once again left the room. This time, he was going to test his jumping ability.
He went back to that large tree, visually estimating the lowest branch, which was about five meters high.
He took a light jump from a standing position and grabbed the branch with both hands.
"Holy cow, this jumping ability would definitely win an Olympic gold medal! And this is without a running start."
In his previous life, his highest record was only 1.2 meters. Now, it had increased by almost two times.
He decided to try how high he could jump with full effort.
He took two steps for a slight running start, and with a "swoosh!" his feet landed steadily on the branch.
"Oh my god, I actually jumped five meters high!" Huang Ye still couldn't believe it, glancing down at the tree. He had indeed jumped that high.
This jumping ability completely astonished him. If he had a basketball, he would definitely be a slam dunk master.
What Sakuragi Dao, Rukawa Kaede, or even Jordan, Kobe, LeBron James, they were all weaklings in front of him.
He really wanted to Transmigrate back and let those famous basketball legends of his previous life witness his strength.
