Everything was normal at home when Chen Xiaobei returned.
His parents were asleep; just like Chen Xiaobai was on the couch while Sirius laid down in the front porch.
While he was relieved, Chen Xiaobei thought that he could not afford to waste his precious time on sleep. Grabbing another bottle of Hundred Herbs Potion from his treasure chest to replenish his vitality, he went back to his room to study Xiangyu’s Emperor Health Ultimate Enhancement Skill!
It did not take a long for him to understand that the skill was not all too complicated. As a technique best utilized for talented individuals it synchronizes muscle and bone to push the body to its maximum capacity and surpass the user’s physical limit.
Ultimately, the user would be able to strengthen their body by leaps and bounds. Although Chen Xiaobei was not as talented as Xiangyu, he had taken a Pill of Purification a while ago which ensured that his body was in tip-top condition.
In other words, he was more than qualified to learn the skill.
“Let me try it out first!”
Chen Xiaobei had the Scholar Heart out with him, which in turn helped him master the skill completely in a short period of time.
His skin, muscle, blood vessels and bones greatly improved in almost no time at all. Through a really special technique, Chen Xiaobei was also able to inject more energy into his own body – and the more energy he pushed in, the quicker he reached his limit.
“Phew… Man! This training works like a charm!” He was exhausted after his first training; his forehead was filled with sweat.
“I think I’ll be completely worn out after ten rounds of training! Twelve to thirteen rounds of training should be my limit… And according to Bro Yu, I should use Hundred Herbs Potion to rejuvenate my body once I reach my limit – which would be boosted for one whole notch! No wonder Bro Yu could raise Wenyuan’s weak body to ten thousand health in just two months; this speed of improvement is crazy!”
“Still, I would have to train faster than Bro Yu… My enemies won’t give me two months to strengthen my body! I hope that I can fuse the Emperor’s Health Ultimate Enhancement Skill with Emperor Yan’s Unwavering Body Fortifying Skill soon to discover a brand-new physical boost technique!”
Chen Xiaobei took out the Duskdawn from his treasure chest, placed in front of him and slowly absorbed its Spiritual Qi. Afterwards, he applied Emperor Yan’s Unwavering Body Fortifying Skill – which was rather unique. It utilized Spiritual Qi to strengthen the body, and he would be able to accelerate the training if sufficient Spiritual Qi was around him.
The only thing Chen Xiaobei needed to do right now however, was to focus on combining those two body-enhancing skills. Soon, he succeeded! In theory the pair of skills were incompatible due to several clashing facets, but somehow, he managed to solve those issues and created something new by sheer brute force.
“Success! Now, I can train with both skills simultaneously! Fantastic!” Chen Xiaobei declared, and quickly began his new training in no time.
Time flew, and it was soon morning, and Chen Xiaobei must have went through ten bottles of Hundred Herbs Potion through the night as he kept soaking in Spiritual Qi from the Duskdawn.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Early phase of Qi refining stage. Health: 6200. Combat power: 5700!]
“Well! An extra five hundred health after spending the night enhancing my body… that means I could raise it by a thousand if I train all day, and that I would reach ten thousand health in four days! This is definitely faster than Bro Yu’s training! An insane rate of improvement!”
Chen Xiaobei was really excited; however, there was the issue of Spiritual Qi. At most, Duskdawn would only last for another four to five days; he must figure out some other way to acquire the energy.
Still, that would be a problem for a later time – it was morning, and Chen Xiaobei had things to do.
First, he contacted to Yap Liangchen; a ten thousand combat power servant to protect his family. His cover story was that Yap Liangchen was a friend from school, and that he had to move in due to some personal issues. After returning from Emperor Yan’s tomb, his charm had significantly increased, therefore augmenting his lies.
His parent did not suspect a thing.
Chen Xiaobei then left Yap Liangchen at his home and traveled to Hearty Island, where Wu Junfan had already brought in employees to the fruit shop and handled any logistics issues. And so, he decided to move all the First Love Peaches to the shops and begin selling them tomorrow first thing in the morning!
“Haha! Let me post something on Weibo first!”
Chen Xiaobei was beside himself in joy when he saw the peaches on his trees. He took a few pictures of them with his phone to post them online and captioned the images: First Love Peach! Officially going up for sale at eight in the morning! One per customer and selling at 998 each! First come first served!
His feed went crazy after he uploaded it.
[Damn! Damn! Damn! 998 for one single peach?! Bro Bei, I think you’ve forgotten a decimal point between that figure! It should be 9.98, right?]
[That price is insane! 998 for a single peach?! Is that a golden peach?!]
[What do you mean by one per customer? What are you going to do with the leftovers?]
[We are really confused! Bro Bei! Please explain!]
….
Some of the fans were confused after Chen Xiaobei posted the status; they had no idea what he was up to. Soon, however, another wave of comments came.
[So cheap! One for only 998?! I had a First Love Peach at the charity dinner before, and I would buy it even if it’s 9988!]
[The taste and satisfaction it brings are priceless! Money is nothing!]
[Why did you limit our purchase? Bro Bei, please remove this rule! It’s torture! We have the money, so why can’t we buy more than one?!]
Naturally, the second wave mostly consisted of individuals from high society of Green Vine City. As if walking advertisements for Chen Xiaobei’s First Love Peach, they would promote the fruit whenever he posted something related – and they were well connected too.
Soon, a chain reaction followed.
“Well! My fans are increasing!” Chen Xiaobei watched on his cellphone as the number of his fans increased in an unimaginable speed. Soon, he had fifty thousand fans!
“This is the true power of my charm! I feel like I’ll have sixty thousand fans by tomorrow morning!” He said excitedly. “According to NeZha, these fans are my disciples! Is the Primeval Lord of Heaven going to reward me with a thousand years of training if I successfully recruit three million disciples?”
