"I don’t recomnd you do this," Chen Zilu said.
Jiang Ye asked suspiciously, "Why?"
"Is the star sky energy like drugs, causing side effects?"
"No."
Chen Zilu shook his head and explained, "You have the Original Talent, so your absorption efficiency of star energy is very low."
"The reason why star sky energy is called that is because it originates from the starry sky. Humans discovered this substance on Mars hundreds of years ago."
"Therefore, the price of star energy is much higher than martial arts ingredients, and the expenses far exceed the gains, making it not worth the cost," Chen Zilu said.
Jiang Ye was slightly stunned.
Original Talent, absorption efficiency very low?
Suddenly, he recalled a question that had always puzzled him.
The difference between physique and talent.
The Blue Star Federation places great importance on martial arts talent, and there must be a reason.
Jiang Ye couldn’t help but ask, "Teacher, is the grading of talent related to star energy?"
"Correct."
Chen Zilu indeed nodded, saying, "Star sky energy is very important to Star Sky Martial Arts. After stepping onto the path of Star Sky Martial Arts, only by continuously absorbing this energy can the transformation of life be pushed forward."
"Moreover, the higher the talent, the more efficient the absorption of star energy."
Jiang Ye understood.
Hundreds of years ago, the Blue Star civilization connected to the starry sky.
Today, human footprints already cover the entire solar system.
It is said that the current cultivation system ’Star Sky Martial Arts’ was discovered during the exploration of the solar system.
Now it seems all of this is related to star sky energy.
Original Talent is called ’Lower Talent’ because of the very low absorption efficiency.
"So, when it cos to Star Sky Refinent, doesn’t that an my ti spent will be longer than others?"
Jiang Ye frowned slightly.
It seems that breaking through the First Break is more difficult than previously imagined!
At this mont, a light laugh ca from the watch: "Regarding the Star Sky Refinent, you don’t need to worry; I have a way to speed up for you when the ti cos."
"Your current goal is to break through the Cultivation Technique to perfection as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ye was delighted and said repeatedly, "Thank you, Teacher."
"Hmm, are there any other questions?"
"No more."
"Be careful, there have been disappearances in the city lately," Chen Zilu said.
Jiang Ye was slightly stunned, "Is it the Shadow Disaster?"
Chen Zilu shook his head, "Not necessarily, it could also be human factors. Just be extra cautious during this period."
Jiang Ye nodded, "Alright, you too."
After hanging up the call, Jiang Ye sat in place, contemplating.
Whether it’s the potential danger or the issue of Star Sky Refinent, they both made him more determined about his goal.
Beco stronger!
Break through the Star Martial Cultivation Technique to perfection as soon as possible and enter the special class.
Jiang Ye’s gaze beca more resolute.
But just then, his expression suddenly froze slightly.
"What is this..."
Before him, several system ssages suddenly popped up!
[Warning! Warning! Your hearing has reached the system limit!]
[You have unlocked a new achievent: Clearly perceive sounds ten kiloters away and communicate over ten kiloters!]
[Unlocked Title: Downwind Ear]
[Reward: Hearing increased by 200%, the further the clearer!]
——
Jiang Ye was almost stunned.
No way... Bro?
He just made a phone call, and broke the system limit?
And unlocked the ’Downwind Ear’ achievent??
"Indeed, in the Grounded Martial Arts world, there is no such thing as a phone."
"So, in the system’s judgnt, making a phone call beca transmitting sound over thousands of miles?"
Jiang Ye wore a bewildered expression.
This rule is easy to understand, but it was sothing he never imagined.
Suddenly.
A peculiar expression appeared on Jiang Ye’s face.
This could be considered a way to exploit bugs, right?
If this could unlock achievents, then many paths he’d never imagined might also unlock new achievents!
As Jiang Ye was still amazed in his heart.
He suddenly felt his ears wriggle.
Next, the internal structure of his ears seed to undergo so subtle changes.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, an incredibly noisy sound entered his ears.
For a mont, Jiang Ye felt like his mind was about to explode, filled with countless noises.
But soon, he gradually adapted, trying to control his hearing.
Extracting useful information from those chaotic sounds.
Vaguely, he heard dialogue from two hundred ters away.
"Mama, mama, look at the flowers~"
"Have you finished your howork!?"
"Boo hoo hoo..."
"..."
Jiang Ye slightly closed his eyes and turned in another direction.
From three hundred ters away, a faint voice ca.
"This guy, drunk after just a few bottles? So weak."
"So, you’re brave?"
...
"Now I can hear sounds from three hundred ters away."
Jiang Ye opened his eyes, a hint of contemplation in them.
Previously, he could only hear sounds within a hundred ters.
In other words, this reward directly tripled his ability.
"However, these kinds of achievents won’t be one-ti, right?"
Jiang Ye pondered: "If there are no higher-level achievents in the sa category, this achievent should be unlocked later when it’s more valuable."
He realized that this kind of achievent exploiting bugs is not necessarily better when unlocked early.
Take the Downwind Ear for instance.
From his original hundred-ter hearing enhanced to three hundred ters, it wasn’t much.
But if he had a thousand-ter hearing, enhancing it to three thousand ters, that increase would be huge.
The stronger one’s ability, the greater the gain.
But since he unlocked it, there was nothing to regret.
"In three weeks, the trial will begin."
"I can try more to see if similar achievents can be unlocked to boost my strength."
Jiang Ye contemplated silently.
Soon, he ca up with an idea.
...
Not long after, Jiang Ye left ho.
He stood by the roadside and flagged down a taxi.
"Driver, do you take highway routes?"
"Costs extra."
"Not going far, just around An City, is a hundred enough?"
"Get in."
Jiang Ye got into the taxi, exhaling gently.
This ti, he risked coming out.
After all, Chen Zilu ntioned that the city hasn’t been safe lately.
But to verify his idea, Jiang Ye decided to go out anyway. It’s noon now, which should be relatively safer.
"Driver, after getting on the highway, please drive at the maximum speed for a while," Jiang Ye said.
In this world.
The highway standards differ from those in the past, with a maximum speed reaching 200km/h.
However, this taxi is unlikely to go that fast, probably only 150 or so.
Even so, it should far exceed the standards of the Grounded Martial Arts world!
Exactly.
Jiang Ye just wanted to see if this can unlock a new achievent.
"Just testing, if it works, I’ll buy a plane ticket when I have money."
In this world, comrcial planes are mostly supersonic.
The prices are also very high.
Even for a short dostic trip, round-trip requires tens of thousands.
Apart from planes, floating cars are available.
But their speed is generally within 500km/h, with a starting price of a thousand.
"Without money, nothing works," Jiang Ye sighed.
A penny troubles a hero!
Whether it’s living costs, transportation costs, or martial arts resources, all require substantial wealth.
The path of a powerhouse might be lonely, but never poorly furbished.
Thus, through the upcoming trial, entering the special class, and getting into the Twenty-Five Schools Alliance beca Jiang Ye’s necessary goal.
"We’re on the highway."
At this mont, Jiang Ye’s gaze brightened as he looked out the window.
After passing through the highway toll booth, the car speed gradually increased.
100km/h
120km/h
130km/h
