Apocalypse: Grinding EXP through Hunting

Chapter 245: Chapter 224: Tang Wen: Why Not Start With a Small Goal

This showed that the Stinging Dragon Qi Replenishing Technique was a notch more difficult than ordinary Basic Techniques.

From experience, the higher the difficulty, the better the Skill’s effect.

Without giving it much thought, Tang Wen buckled down and continued his training at the medical hall.

Elder Liu finally saw for himself what Liang Yu meant by "Martial Arts training fanatic."

Around noon, the Cultivation Technique broke through.

[Stinging Dragon Qi Replenishing Technique, Beginner → Master (1/1000)]

[Body: 23.58 → 23.78]

An increase of a full 0.2!

The twenty or thirty Cultivation Techniques from the past few days had only increased it by 0.57 in total.

[Essence: 36.49 → 36.66]

A rather auspicious number.

His Essence increased by 0.17.

Including the increase from the past three days, the total was 0.66.

Tang Wen closed his eyes and, within his Sea of Consciousness, attempted to sketch the 37th pictograph.

As expected, he failed once again.

The difficulty of sketching the 37th pictograph was more than double that of the 36th.

He had previously estimated it would take three months. Now, thanks to the growth in his Spiritual Power, it might only take two months to successfully sketch the 37th pictograph.

Of course, this two-month estimate assumed he spent all his time, aside from eating and sleeping, on the Spiritual Meditation Method.

With that in mind, it was clearly a wise decision for Tang Wen to spend time honing his Health Cultivation Technique and Basic Techniques.

At noon, Elder Liu personally went to the kitchen and made a large pot of nourishing, restorative soup.

After Tang Wen finished eating, a pleasant warmth spread through his body.

In the afternoon, the training continued. Liang Yu wasn’t idle either. She began practicing flexibility exercises, striving to contort her body into a series of difficult yoga-like poses.

Tang Wen glanced over unintentionally.

He immediately felt a rush of heat surge downwards!

’It’s not that I’m too lecherous. Everyone saw it—she was the one who tempted me first.’

[Sun-Devouring Rejuvenation Technique, Beginner → Master (1/1000)]

Body +0.19

Essence +0.23

As evening fell, his second Cultivation Technique broke through.

When dinnertime arrived, Tang Wen and his servant showed no intention of leaving.

Elder Liu was about to prepare some specialty dishes.

But Tang Wen waved his hand. "Liang Yu, just go to the restaurant next door and order a full spread."

"Alright. I’ll go get the Tiger Bone Wine."

Tang Wen said, "Elder Liu, there’s no rush to drink. Let’s keep training!"

At that moment, Elder Liu had not yet realized the gravity of the situation.

’Train, then? What’s the big deal?’

’I’ll just be giving him a few pointers. It’s no trouble.’

When the food was delivered, they watched as Tang Wen ate and drank his fill as if he were heading into battle. Then he started honing his techniques again.

The old man was a bit stunned. "This... Seventh Young Master is in the prime of his youth. Instead of visiting the brothels at night, he’s actually doing extra training?"

Liang Yu revealed a faint smile. "Elder Liu, please don’t be alarmed. This is only the beginning."

"What do you mean?"

"Er, a few days ago, the Young Master lived on the floor of the clan’s Armory for several days, just training."

"Are you saying the Seventh Young Master will be training here for several days as well?"

"I’m afraid so." Liang Yu seemed to recall something and added, "My Young Master once said, ’What genius? I just use the time others spend drinking tea for my training.’"

"Hiss!" Elder Liu tugged at his beard, exclaiming excitedly, "How enlightening! Truly enlightening!"

"Someone, come!" he shouted.

A middle-aged man walked in. "Ancestor, your orders?"

"Go! Bring those little brats from the family here. Let them see how diligent and hardworking the clan’s number one genius, the great Seventh Young Master, truly is! How dare they go out carousing every day?!" Elder Liu yelled, slamming his hand on the table.

That night, while he was training hard in the [Jade Firmness Essence Formulas], Tang Wen suddenly noticed that quite a few people were watching him.

He looked at Elder Liu. "What’s this?"

"Young Master, please don’t be offended. These are the juniors of my family. They have long admired you, and when they heard you were at the medical hall, they insisted on coming to see you."

The juniors, who had been secretly sneaking glances at Liang Yu: ???

’So we came here voluntarily.’

Elder Liu turned his head and shot them a glare, and the juniors all nodded quickly.

"Yes, Seventh Young Master, we’ve finally gotten to see you."

They all chimed in, sounding as if they really meant it.

Elder Liu seized the opportunity to lecture them, telling them to learn from Young Master Tang Wen and properly hone their Martial Arts.

"Would you offer them a few words of encouragement?"

Tang Wen thought for a moment. "If you don’t train hard when you’re young, you’ll regret it when you’re old!"

After speaking, he glanced at Liang Yu and added, "First, set a small goal for yourselves: reach the Extraordinary realm before you’re thirty! When that time comes, what kind of woman won’t you be able to get?"

Elder Liu, who just a moment ago had thought Tang Wen was truly talented, fell silent along with all the juniors.

’Reach the Extraordinary realm before thirty?’

’That?’

’Isn’t that the standard for the clan’s young masters?’
