Chapter 24: Tiger Roars and Gains Strength
Chapter 24: Tiger Roars and Gains Strength
Return to the outer courtyard of the martial arts hall and continue daily training.
"There are only 6 or 7 days left."
Perhaps Zhou You was feeling guilty, as he always felt that Fang Guiqi was looking at him.
Later it was determined to be an illusion. This guy was elusive and his whereabouts were a mystery. How could we have the time to monitor him?
13. The tiger bone plaster must be used up as soon as possible, otherwise the smell will spread and bring disaster.
Zhou You put one piece of tiger bone plaster on his chest, back and limbs respectively.
Using 6 patches of tiger bone ointment at the same time can provide 6 times the usual amount of secret medicine.
Such an extravagant behavior directly brings 6 times the powerful medicinal power into the body.
"Hoohoo!"
Zhou You felt his blood boiling and his muscle cells bathing in the heat, growing stronger step by step.
"Strength +1, Speed +1, Defense +1."
"Strength: 13, Speed: 13, Defense: 13."
By the next day, the five patches of tiger bone ointment had been completely absorbed, with less than 5% of the medicinal properties remaining in the body.
Zhou You called up the panel to check his data.
Name: Zhou You.
Strength: 14.
Speed: 14.
Defense: 14.
Experience value: 358.
Occupation: Boxing apprentice.
Ability: Iv8, square lv8, generation Iv9
All parameters are only one step away from the threshold of upgrading Gao Fu Hu Quan
Zhou You took out another 6 patches of tiger bone plaster, covered his entire body with them, and began to practice with the help of the medicinal power.
The medicinal power penetrates into the skin through the pores, quickly nourishing the skin, fur, bones, and internal organs.
With every punch and step, he broke through the air with great force, driving the muscles and bones throughout the body to function, greatly absorbing the medicinal power of the tiger bone ointment.
Half a day later, Zhou You heard a ding sound in his ear.
"Strength +1, Speed +1, Defense +1."
"Strength: 15, Speed: 15, Defense: 15."
"The upgrade conditions for Subduing Tiger Fist are met. Do you accept the experience value -90, Subduing Tiger Fist lv9→lv10."
Zhou You chose to confirm without hesitation.
"Experience value -90, Subduing Tiger Fist lv9→lv10."
The next moment, Zhou You’s mind felt like it was hit by a huge iron hammer, and it kept buzzing.
An extremely itchy and numbing sensation emerged from deep within the bone marrow, flowing through the body like an electric shock, penetrating the lungs and internal organs.
The power finally showed up.
Before this, Zhou You practiced countless times, trying to grasp the essence of strength, but he never succeeded.
It is like an invisible wind. You know it exists, but you cannot capture it, let alone figure it out.
It was not until now, after meeting the upgrade conditions, that I touched upon the true existence of strength.
"Sure enough, physical condition is the threshold."
Strength? The 15 points of speed and defense are the basic conditions for cultivating strength.
The Subduing Tiger Fist is a basic training method for catalyzing powerful strength.
For the new apprentices in the outer courtyard, whether they are throwing random punches or using tiger bone ointment, the ultimate goal is to stimulate the potential of the body.
Some people succeeded and exerted their strength, while others failed and left sadly.
Zhou You came to Jianxiong Martial Arts School, endured invisible pressure, practiced hard day and night, and finally touched the edge of strength at this moment.
The development of strength not only requires qualifications, but also needs to be explored through acquired training.
At the last minute, Zhou You used 12 patches of tiger bone ointment to finally break this barrier.
He seemed to hear the sound of rushing water in a great river, the sound of blood flowing. The blood flowed faster, the body surface temperature rose, and the internal pressure on the internal organs was far greater than that of ordinary people.
This is the upscaling of the flesh and blood!
Only by reaching a frequency that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, will one be qualified to deliver a shocking blow.
At this moment, Zhou You is like a pupa that is eager to break out of its cocoon and become a butterfly. Beneath his seemingly normal appearance, he hides amazing potential.
The sky gradually darkened, the light around gradually faded, and the martial arts field in the outer courtyard also became quiet.
The new apprentices left one after another. They had been tired after a day of work and needed to rest and replenish their energy at night so that they could be in better condition for training the next day.
Zhou You stood in front of the wooden stake and punched the hard wood again and again, making a banging sound.
The century-old hardwood stake is the standard unit of measurement for testing boxing and martial arts prowess.
A person without strength will not be able to break a hardwood stake even if he exerts all his strength for his entire life.
If you develop strong strength, you can easily knock down a hard wooden stake even with just one punch.
"Just a little bit, and I can achieve the effect of strength."
Practicing martial arts is a process of breakthrough and transformation. Even if all conditions are met, he still has to deliver the most crucial punch.
Zhou You roared, his muscles tensed, and sweat gathered into streams and flowed to his feet.
He is at a critical moment, success or failure depends on this one.
"That's the feeling, hunger, real hunger."
The image of a hungry tiger lurking on a barren hill emerged in my mind, with calm eyes and a thin and strong body full of explosive power.
Zhou You felt his own breath merge into one with the impression of the tiger in the painting.
His eyes flashed with a dim light, and he wished he could break the hardwood stake in front of him, tear it into pieces, and swallow it into his stomach.
"There is still one piece of tiger bone plaster left. We can't waste it."
Zhou You casually placed the last piece of tiger bone ointment on his chest, and a new flow of medicine flowed into his heart.
Just like the weight of the last straw, it directly points out the key node where quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
Zhou You suddenly shuddered, and a tingling chill shot up from his tailbone and went straight through the top of his head.
All kinds of feelings such as itching, numbness, tingling and pain came to my mind.
Zhou You could see with his naked eyes that the skin on the back of his hands, arms and thighs were covered with goose bumps.
His whole body shook subconsciously, and he swung his fist, unconsciously delivering a powerful punch.
The sound of this punch breaking through the air was different from previous ones, sharp as a knife, piercing the eardrum and causing pain.
Faintly, the sound of a tiger's roar could be heard from the fist wind, which was fierce and intimidating.
"It's done."
Zhou You felt an inexplicable mysterious feeling in his heart. Before his fist touched the wooden stake, he saw the stake breaking.
Boom! The fist hit the wooden stake, but it no longer had the toughness and strength it had before and instead broke.
Zhou You felt unprecedented relief with his fist, and directly knocked the broken hardwood stake several meters away.
The force flows under the skin like a nimble little fish.
Zhou You took a deep breath and took a step forward. Driven by the force, his speed suddenly increased three times.
In a flash, he rushed from the center of the open space to the corner, almost bumping into the wall.
I looked back to measure the distance under my feet. It was about 7 or 8 meters, and I crossed it in one breath.
This is the magic of strength, which can greatly enhance strength, speed and defense.
No wonder in martial arts schools, only those who have developed strong strength can be considered formal apprentices. Only at this stage can one be considered to have truly mastered the whole martial art.
Zhou You took a few deep breaths to dissipate the energy, and the temperature of his body returned to normal.
A wave of dizziness came over him. The strength consumed too much of his body, not to mention that he had just mastered the training and his body had not yet adapted.
Fortunately, there was still some residual medicinal power from the tiger bone plaster in the body, which quickly seeped into the blood and replenished the consumed physical strength.
"Ha ha!"
Zhou You laughed in the night. At this moment he grasped the thread of his destiny.
