Chapter 119: Seems Not Wanting to Be Alone
Since he finally got the chance, Zhou Shang naturally wanted to test Jiang Tian a little.
See what his current level of strength was.
Soon, the test results came out.
---
Zhou Shang stared at the report, remaining silent for a long time.
---
[Test Report]
Realm: 1st Level Awakening
Body Refining Degree: 80%
External Blood Gas Value: 1,800
Internal Blood Gas Value: 4,000
Total Blood Gas Value: 5,800
Evaluation: Welcome to Tangguo Xingguang Testing Company. According to results, the product may be faulty. Please return it to the factory for repair.
---
Zhou Shang ignored the last evaluation.
This was a newly purchased instrument, there was no way it could be faulty.
---
What shocked him was the speed at which Jiang Tian tempered his body—
It was way too fast.
---
Through the martial arts college entrance exam, Jiang Tian's body refinement progress had jumped from 10% to 80%.
This meant that his meridians and dantian were almost fully tempered.
Although this process would slow down over time, Zhou Shang estimated—
Jiang Tian would soon reach the 2nd level.
---
Zhou Shang was curious—
As Jiang Tian's realm increased, just how much more abnormal would his combat power become?
Would it still be possible to fight across multiple levels?
---
"At a low level, it's already very difficult for top talents to fight across levels," Zhou Shang mused.
"Most need to rely on external forces."
"But this kid… He fights entirely on his own strength."
---
Zhou Shang suddenly laughed.
He was really looking forward to seeing what kind of chaos his disciple would bring to Hongwu University in Xingcheng.
---
For years, Hongwu University had always been ranked second.
They were labeled the eternal runner-up.
Zhou Shang had endured endless taunts from his old rival, the president of Tiansheng University, which always held the top spot.
---
But this time?
Things would be different.
With his disciple leading the charge, he would be like a catfish among a school of fish—
Stirring everything into motion.
---
Jiang Tian's Limit
"Teacher, what's the result?" Jiang Tian's voice snapped Zhou Shang out of his thoughts.
Zhou Shang looked at Jiang Tian and replied:
---
"The result? Quite abnormal."
"For ordinary people, the limit of the 3rd level of the Fusion Realm is around 5,999 blood gas points."
"Anyone who can break 6,000 points is considered a genius."
"But the absolute limit of this realm is 6,600 blood gas points."
"The only one who reached this limit was Teacher Ji Qiudao."
"He once said that this was the maximum possible."
---
"If I reach the 2nd level, I might be able to surpass that," Jiang Tian noted.
Zhou Shang spread his hands and sighed.
---
"Your situation is too special to judge by normal standards."
---
Jiang Tian fell silent.
This time, the teacher didn't hold back—
He gave him a clearer understanding of his own abilities.
---
It seemed that the physical talent Jiang Tian had in his past life had been magnified in this world.
---
On Earth, his natural superhuman physique had earned him the nickname "Monster."
Now, in this parallel world, with spiritual energy tempering blood gas, his body was evolving into something beyond human limits.
---
"I was already an anomaly in my original world," Jiang Tian thought.
"Now, in this world, I'm a double anomaly."
"So, maybe I'm just a normal kind of abnormal?"
---
A Last Free Summer
"I'll head to the university early to work on your special major," Zhou Shang said, rubbing Jiang Tian's shoulders.
"Just relax this summer."
"It's the last peaceful vacation you'll ever have."
After saying this, Zhou Shang said goodbye and left.
---
Checking Messages
Jiang Tian returned to the house, where his parents were still excitedly discussing the day's events.
He cleaned up the kitchen and picked up his phone—
Noticing a message from Xue Ruyan.
---
After reading the message, Jiang Tian smiled.
It seemed that the special training he gave Xue Ruyan had paid off.
---
Jiang Tian:
[Xue, your hard work is the key. I saw all the effort you put in during the exams.]
---
Bing!
Shortly after sending the message, he received a reply.
---
Xue Ruyan:
[But Jiang's help was crucial! Especially with the delicious food—double the effect!]
[ε==(づ′▽`)づ Likes!]
---
Seeing her enthusiastic reply, Jiang Tian hesitated for a moment before sending another message.
---
Jiang Tian:
[What are your plans for summer vacation?]
---
Xue Ruyan:
[Of course, I'll train hard and prepare for college. Martial Arts University is tough, and competition is fierce.]
---
Jiang Tian:
[Is the competition really that intense?]
---
Xue Ruyan:
[Of course! There are only so many resources, and they won't be distributed evenly.]
[To get more, you have to prove yourself.]
[My grandparents say we must always maintain a certain level of competitiveness. If we're too comfortable, we won't have the ruthlessness needed to face aliens on the battlefield.]
[Otherwise, when we're out there, our legs will turn to jelly, and we'll get eaten alive.]
---
A Strange Invitation?
Before Jiang Tian could reply, another message arrived.
---
Xue Ruyan:
[You suddenly asked me this question… Is Jiang trying to make an invitation?]
[* (●ﾟωﾟ●) *]
---
In her room, Xue Ruyan sat cross-legged on her bed, staring at the screen.
Her cheeks were flushed, her heart pounding.
---
Did I really just ask that?!
---
What kind of girl asks a boy if he's inviting her somewhere?!
She wasn't planning to socialize this summer—
Her goal was hard training and self-improvement.
Alone.
---
But now…?
For some strange reason, she didn't want to be alone anymore.
---
Oh, right!
She was just thinking that Jiang Tian would be developing new dishes during summer vacation.
And he'd need her help!
---
With her ability to enhance food, she could train faster too!
Yes—
That's what this is about!
---
Just as she convinced herself, another message popped up.
---
Bing!
Jiang Tian had replied.
---
What Would He Say?
She held her breath—
And clicked to open the message.
---
(To be continued…)
