“Rend asunder!”
Qin Fen howled within the dream, his pair of hands grabbed onto the front paws of a saber-tooth tiger, a beast extinct for many years in reality. His two arms suddenly spread out as the strong saber-tooth tiger’s forelegs were actually torn away!
A leg trampled on the saber-tooth tiger’s body, and Qin Fen’s chest heaved violently. Vigilance flickered in the eyes of the surrounding ravenous beasts, none daring to come forth and attack him.
Qin Fen had been absolutely speechless when he saw the scene suddenly change into a vast praire containing all sorts of ferocious animals.
Over a dozen corpses of all sorts of bizarre beasts lay on the surrounding grass. There were leopards, tigers, saber-tooth tigers, and even wild boars.
These beasts were different from the animals of a zoo. The beasts here were brimming with animal instincts. According to the figure of light’s explanation, if Qin Fen were to receive a fatal injury here, then his mind would silently conform and believe that he had died.
To put it simply, it would be game over in real life if Qin Fen were to die here.
Qin Fen didn’t know whether the figure of light was telling the truth or lying. In any case, he didn’t dare to risk it. A person only has one life, something he was very clear about. He wasn’t the sort of zealous person who was willing sacrifice himself for the sake of scientific experiments and test.
“I got rid of the tiger! Now what’s next?” Qin Fen tossed away the tiger’s leg in his hand, looking all around him with an impressive presence. “Indian Elephant? Or will it simply be a giant mammoth?”
“The giant mammoth is the test of the third section of the second part of training.” The figure of light appeared before Qin Fen once more, “Right now we will carry out the final training of the first part. Virtual environment training.”
The instant the voice entered Qin Fen’s ears, the sight before his eyes suddenly darkened. He opened his eyes again, only to discover that there were dozens of hot, achy pains all over his body. He was lying in the bed of his old and dilapidated house.
There were two kids by his bed. They wore course clothes and their noses were covered in snot. They gazed at him with curiosity.
“You’ve woken up,” said a middle-aged woman wearing coarse historical clothes. She carried over a cracked porcelain bowl over before him. “It was these two kids who found you injured by the road. Come. Have some porridge.”
The steaming porridge of the cracked porcelain bowl was very watery. It was also made up mostly of bitter vegetable leaves. Right when Qin Fen was suspecting that he had become the main character of a fantasy novel, he heard the mechanical voice of the figure of light ring in his mind.
“This is the last of this first part of training. The conditions to pass are as follows: Destroy all enemies or survive for twenty-four hours.”
Qin Fen knew that he had been squeezed into a bizarre scenario once more by the figure of light. It was like the vast prairie from before, only this time it was more similar to role playing.
Destroy all enemies? Qin Fen was a bit curious. What kind of enemies were there? Were the dozens of cuts and slashes on his body caused by his enemies?
Though his throat was dry, making it hard for the porridge to pass down, there was a sensation of hunger coming from his stomach. He didn’t know if he was really hungry, or if the figure of light had created this sensation. In any case, Qin Fen slurped the porridge clean.
“Thank-you,” Qin Fen handed back the bowl, saying thanks by instinct. He suddenly felt that things were a bit funny. This was just a virtual scene created by the figure of light. There wasn’t a need to say thanks. It seemed like the generated scene was really too real.
“Take it easy and rest,” the middle-aged woman took the porcelain bowl, gently sighed, and turned to walk out the door. “The months and year has been full of turmoil and the chaos of war. When will it ever end.”
Turmoil and chaos of war? Qin Fen faintly guessed the circumstances of this training. He sat up with great difficulty, pushing off his hands for support, then he checked his body’s internal strength.
Qin Fen was shocked. How did the figure of light do this? Over half of Qin Fen’s strength was sealed. His current strength with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art didn’t exceed the one-star level.
“Big bro, do you know martial arts?” Lying by the side of the bed, the older of the two boys revealed a hopeful gaze.
“….” Qin Fen hesitated before giving a gentle nod, “A little bit.”
“Can you teach me?” The older boy grew excited in an instant.
“Teach you?” Qin Fen was puzzled.
“Yeah.” The boy replied very seriously, “All I need to do is learn martial arts and I can become strong. I can protect my mother and the other people in the village!”
Qin Fen had nothing else to do at the moment. He had to wait for the special training to start, so nodded, “Okay, I’ll teach you a set of mind-chant techniques.”
Qin Fen felt that cultivating the figure of light’s Dragon Elephant Prajna Art was an extremely arduous task. He took a moment to think. It was better to simplify his country’s publicized version of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, make it easier to learn, and teach it to these two boys.
The Dragon Elephant Prajna Art became weaker after being simplified. Qin Fen shook his head as he watched the earnest appearance of the two boys. The scene created by the figure of light was way too real.
Feeling a bit stiff and rusty, Qin Fen got off the bed and walked out the room. The feeling of being surrounded by four walls was not a good one, and soon those two boys, training in earnest, were all who were left in the room.
Qin Fen didn’t know that this thing he just casually did would make the apex-level strong of Earth be shocked speechless. Altering and simplifying a martial art was nearly the same degree of difficulty to creating one’s own martial art. Other than grandmasters, only people with extraordinary comprehension toward martial arts were able to do such a thing. Yet, it turned out a two-star martial artist casually did this. This can only be described as a miracle.
The village was a bit desolate with approximately a mere hundred people for the population. Their lives appeared to be extremely destitute and simple, yet everyone bustling down the streets greeted each other kindly.
Soon it became noon, and Qin Fen returned to the place where he originally woke up. The two boys were drenched in sweat by now, revealing an extremely tired appearance. Yet, they still persisted in non-stop training.
Qin Fen’s eyes shone bright. Even though the martial art had been simplified, it was still a big burden for the kids to train in. The figure of light created such a scene. Was it trying to tell him something through the perseverance of these two boys? A kid was able to do it, so a third-year high school student should be able to do it as well.
“Xingba, food is ready,” the middle-aged woman’s voice rang from outside.
