Translator: 549690339
[Congratulations to the host for completing the breakthrough after your tireless efforts!]
[Congratulations to Little Ji Ruo for triggering a special achievement: Heaven rewards hard work, number one!]
[Acquired innate talent: More is better! Big is strong!]
[More is better: When the host obtains or faces growth in terms of quantity, the upper limit of the stage growth will be increased to the theoretical limit of the stage! (Cannot be upgraded)]
[Big is strong: When the host obtains or faces growth in terms of ‘size’, the upper limit of the stage growth will be increased to the theoretical limit of the stage! (Cannot be upgraded)]
[Remark: Children who work hard deserve to be rewarded!]
[Remark: Your efforts will not be wasted!]
[Remark: No pain, no gain! Work hard, hardworking child. Please grow up healthily and happily!]
His innate talent instantly took effect, and Ji Ruo, who had just broken through to the Qi Pulse Realm, ate the ‘talent bonus.’
Originally, when breaking through the Qi Meridian Realm, there would be a spiritual energy infusion.
Due to the limitation of his physical strength, the extent of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy Empowerment this time would fluctuate to a certain extent.
Endurance, luck, willpower, and so on were all factors that could affect the spiritual energy infusion.
A level-nine Martial Apprentice was the theoretical limit of a normal person’s physique, and it was also the level where one could withstand the spiritual influence to the greatest extent.
During the spiritual energy infusion, the spiritual energy would cleanse the body to the greatest extent, resulting in extremely intense and continuous pain during the process.
How long he could endure it was entirely up to his own will.
Moreover, the enlightenment was passive. Under normal circumstances, there was no way to control it, so it also depended on one’s luck.
But Ji Ruo was different.
The spiritual energy infusion would cause pain. Other than cleansing the body, a large part of the reason was that the newly opened meridians were too small and could not withstand too much spiritual energy.
With the [Big is Strong] talent in effect, even if Ji Ruo had just opened his meridians, his meridians were several times thicker than the average person’s!
The majestic spiritual energy entered from the Baihui acupoint on the top of his head, followed a special human meridian that did not exist before, and entered the Danzhong acupoint on his chest. It stayed there and flowed into his limbs and bones along with his blood.
The meridian had just been opened, but it was already as thick as the meridian of an ordinary Qi Meridian Realm martial artist.
The effect of the spiritual energy infusion was extremely terrifying!
A visible spiritual energy fluctuation gathered above Ji Ruo’s head and formed a vortex with a diameter of several meters. The cleansing of his body brought unimaginable pain to Ji Ruo.
But Ji Ruo gritted his teeth and persevered.
Hence, the [More is Better] talent also took effect.
The Spirit Qi vortex grew a few more circles, and it continued to grow bigger. With the help of the two talents, the quantity and volume of Spirit Qi began to increase toward the theoretical limit.
Ji Ruo had broken through when he was a Level Eight Martial Apprentice.
However, the Spiritual Energy Empowerment had only lasted for a moment, and the majestic Spiritual Energy had made Ji Ruo’s physique directly surpass the level of a Level Nine Martial Apprentice!
The speed of growth was unimaginable!
Liang Shixian looked at this scene with his mouth agape. Why did he suddenly open his qi meridian? Was it that careless?
How could he know that Ji Ruo’s life was very hard? The financial aid provided by the Great Xia government was only enough for Ji Ruo to barely live a normal life. There was not even a little surplus.
It wasn’t that the Great Xia officials were stingy, but that their resources were limited.
The area of cultivated land in Great Xia’s territory was decreasing every year, and the demons were backed by secret realms. Their fertility rate was shocking, and their resources were inexhaustible.
In comparison, it was not easy for some humans living in the border areas to even eat their fill.
Such people, their only hope was to participate in the martial arts examination. They either changed their fate and became martial artists who ate demon beasts, or they died in the Myriad Beast Mountain and were eaten by demon beasts…
Ji Ruo’s parents had died in the battle against the Beast Tide, and the Great Xia government was able to provide some allowance for Ji Ruo to eat every month. This was really the limit.
After all, Ji Ruo wasn’t the only orphan in Great Xia.
Of course, because of the difference in geographical location, the closer one was to the center of Great Xia, the more prosperous the lives of the people were.
Even people like Liang Shixian, who had both parents and a good family background, could occasionally eat bloody rice.
But Ji Ruo had never eaten it before.
Under such circumstances, Ji Ruo still practiced martial arts and was able to reach the level of a Level Six Martial Apprentice. This in itself proved how hard the original body worked.
His training volume was several times or even ten times that of ordinary people!
Diligence can make up for stupidity!
Because of this, Ji Ruo was actually a little malnourished.
His body craved for nutrition, and this martial examination made up for his lack of nutrition.
Thus, Ji Ruo bounced back from the bottom. Under the urging of his pure mind, Ji Ruo naturally broke through.
The Wind God Falcon was surprised to see Ji Ruo breaking through the meridian and receiving spiritual energy.
She could feel that at this moment, she was rapidly becoming stronger-although she was still very weak compared to her.
However, compared to Ji Ruo from before, it was simply double!
“Chirp -(Human martial arts are really amazing!)
Liang Shixian’s surprise did not last long before he began to practice martial arts again. He was even more serious than before. As he waved his fists and feet, his strength was heavy, as if he wanted to squander all his strength! Ji Ruo’s breakthrough didn’t make him jealous. He knew that Ji Ruo deserved it.
He would only be happy for Ji Ruo and work harder!
He was the class president! How could the class monitor be weaker than his classmates? If the class monitor was not strong, how could he protect his classmates?
Therefore, with the support of this intention, a moment later, because Ji Ruo gradually learned the basics of ‘concentrated breathing’ , Liang Shixian naturally…He became a Level 9 Martial Artist.
Ji Ruo, on the other hand, was still receiving the spiritual energy infusion. His face was abnormally ferocious, but he did not make a sound.
Veins bulged on his forehead and neck as if they were about to explode.
Blood seeped out of his skin and gradually dyed Ji Ruo’s body red. His heart was beating like a drum, and his blood was surging like a river!
“Inhale, exhale, exhale, exhale.”
Half an hour later, Ji Ruo’s spiritual energy infusion ended.
His meridians and bones were still aching, but the powerful energy that seemed to be surging in his body made Ji Ruo happy from the bottom of his heart.
“The feeling of breaking through is really good!”
Ji Ruo, who was covered in blood, raised his palm and waved. The Genuine Qi in his meridians surged and combined with the flowing blood, bringing Ji Ruo an unparalleled force.
His palm was red with a tinge of black, burning with raging flames!
The scorching heat caused Liang Shixian’s cheeks to turn red, and he swayed in the strong wind in the high sky-Meridian Realm, Special Effect Martial Art!
The Iron Sand Palm that was close to the level of perfection finally displayed its due power under the enhancement of the qi meridians and true qi!
Ji Ruo held the flame in his hand and was covered in blood, but he smiled. “Class monitor, quick, quick, help me take a photo and record it for me!” Liang Shixian took the watch in a daze and took a photo of Ji Ruo.
In the background, there was the Wind God Falcon Auntie, the two Little Wind God Falcons who had been awakened by Ji Ruo’s breakthrough, and Little Rosie who was still eating her fruit.
[Punch in!] Talent bonus increased to 2.5%
The two little wind falcons, Big Treasure and Two Treasures, were not angry because they were suddenly awakened. Instead, they surrounded Ji Ruo and chirped excitedly.
“Chirp! Chirp!(Fire! Fire!) “Chirp -(Amazing! Aren’t your hands hot?” Little Rosie continued to eat.
