Chapter 3

No one is content with mediocrity, and Lin Feng is no exception.

However, his goal is not just to satisfy his own desires; he also wants to make his father proud.

In his previous life, he had no parents and grew up in an orphanage, so in this life, he cherishes the hard-won family ties.

He hopes that through his achievements, he can make his father proud, and that's all he wants.

"In theory, as long as your mental strength is powerful enough, the附属 space can be infinitely accelerated or decelerated! However, in practice, the strength of your mental power is based on the physical strength meeting the standard. If your mental strength is too powerful but your physical strength is weak, it will ultimately lead to the collapse of your body."

Number One's reminder was like a wake-up call, jolting Lin Feng out of his joy.

Physical strength?

Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh, "Physical strength is my biggest weakness."

Although Earth Mages are called mages, their physical strength far surpasses that of ordinary people.

Lin Feng's mental strength is about twice that of an ordinary person, but when it comes to physical strength, he is like a wilted eggplant, lacking any vigor.

However, he has one advantage: perseverance. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will not retreat or give up.

Isn't it just about physical training?

If one day isn't enough, then train for a month; if a month isn't enough, then train for a year; if a year isn't enough, then train for ten years. He doesn't believe that his physical strength can't be improved at all, even if it's just a little bit, he will be satisfied.

He clearly knows what he wants and what he needs to pay for it.

...

"Finally passed the second level." Although he has only passed two levels, Lin Feng feels a sense of accomplishment.

The first level took him an hour, but the second level took him ten hours. He doesn't know how difficult the hundredth level is or how much time it will take to pass, but he knows it will be an astronomical number.

His mental strength has increased by 2P again, plus the 1P increase from passing the first level, totaling 23P.

"With the increase in mental strength, my mind is also clearer." Lin Feng feels that his current state is pretty good.

However, the side effect of the increase in mental strength is that he feels his body is more difficult to control, feeling lighter and more unstable.

Earth Mages, after each advancement in cultivation, will be washed by the laws of the earth, automatically enhancing their physical strength.

Lin Feng, on the other hand, needs to actively train.

His mental strength is not cultivated, so it cannot be recognized by the laws of the earth, and thus cannot be washed by the laws of the earth.

Earth Mages and Earth Warriors, though different in cultivation methods, both belong to the realm of Earth Pulse Techniques. Earth Pulse Techniques, also known as Earth Vein Techniques, are divided into Earth Warriors and Earth Mages. Throughout history, countless outstanding predecessors have developed Earth Pulse Techniques to their utmost, passing down various techniques from generation to generation, forming a prosperous and complete Earth cultivation system.

Earth Warriors follow the path of warriors, and when cultivated to the extreme, their strength can overturn rivers and seas, making rivers dry up and mountains collapse. Earth Mages follow the path of mages, and when cultivated to the extreme, they can cast devastating spells—earthquakes and landslides, capable of destroying a city.

However, both paths ultimately converge, leading to integration.

It is said that when breaking through to the 'Supreme' level, the mental strength of Earth Warriors will be washed, rapidly growing to the level of a Mage Supreme, while the physical strength of Earth Mages will be maximally enhanced, reaching the level of a Warrior Supreme.

Therefore, whether it is an Earth Warrior or an Earth Mage, after breaking through to the 'Supreme' level, there is no longer any distinction.

Spending eleven hours in the Number One space, only a little over five hours have passed outside.

When Lin Feng's consciousness returned to his body, it was just dawn, and the distant mountains were just beginning to turn white.

At this time every day, he needs to get up and work, and today is no exception.

First, he fetched two buckets of water from the river in Shuanglong Town, then he started the furnace and used a fan to increase the fire. When the fire stabilized, Lin Feng was already quite exhausted. The time he spent today was clearly longer than usual, and the entire process consumed more physical strength. "It seems that physical training is urgent," Lin Feng knew he couldn't delay any longer.

Lin Tao would probably get up in about half an hour, so Lin Feng took this time to think about how to train his body.

After much thought, he couldn't come up with an efficient method. It seemed he could only rely on the vague memories from his previous life to do some traditional exercises like push-ups, running, and frog jumps.

Having decided on the exercises, Lin Feng began to train.

He didn't want to wait until tomorrow, for tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow would only multiply the delays.

Even though these exercises seemed simple, they were indeed very tiring when done with effort. Moreover, Lin Feng's body was already weak, and this exertion made him even more exhausted, making breathing difficult. However, he persisted with a strong will and determination.

For half an hour, he only rested once. Despite the high-intensity training, Lin Feng remained silent and consistent.

Creak—

The door to Lin Tao's bedroom opened.

Lin Tao walked out of the room, glanced at Lin Feng, frowned, and said, "Who taught you to train like this?"

"No one taught me; I figured it out myself," Lin Feng stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Training like this will greatly reduce the effectiveness," Lin Tao said, then walked towards the blacksmith shop.

Lin Feng called out, "Wait, Father, can you teach me how to train effectively?"

Lin Tao stopped, indifferent, and said, "With your talent, even if I teach you how to train, it won't be useful." With that, he turned and left.

"Is that so?" Lin Feng watched his father's departing figure, feeling somewhat disappointed.

When Lin Tao's figure disappeared around the corner of the backyard, a voice came from behind: "Remember, when you jump, extend your arms to the sides, and it's best to hang a small piece of ore on your wrists. When you land, touch the ground with your toes first, keep your body vertical, and don't bend down." It was Lin Tao's voice.

Hearing this, Lin Feng's lips curled into a smile.

...

With Lin Tao's guidance, training according to his method indeed improved efficiency.

Of course, the difficulty also increased.

After training for a while in the backyard, Lin Feng, with his tired body, went to the front yard, opened the door, and started business.

...

"Lin Feng, what are you doing?" The speaker was the fat aunt from the west side of the town.

Lin Feng, while jumping, smiled and said, "Training."

He stopped and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go get the hoe you ordered yesterday."

"Training is good. Lin Feng, your body is too weak, you need to train more. Look at me, I'm as strong as a horse! Most men can't even compare to me!" In the countryside, people don't care much about a woman's appearance; they care more about whether she can manage the household, has the strength to work in the fields, and isn't petty. A woman like the fat aunt is very popular in the countryside.

Lin Feng just smiled and didn't say anything.

Soon, Lin Feng brought the hoe and handed it to the fat aunt, "Here, try it and see if it suits you."

The fat aunt said straightforwardly, "Hey, you kid. I've bought things from your family before; I know the quality. To be honest, your father's craftsmanship is excellent, and the prices are fair. For these two reasons, I always buy hoes and knives from your family."

"Thank you." Lin Feng, not good at talking, had to be polite, "Even the best hoe needs to be used by someone who knows how to use it. If it weren't for Aunt Li, our hoe wouldn't show its quality." This was a small compliment.

The fat aunt immediately smiled, modestly saying, "Where, where, just barely making do, as long as I don't bring shame to the family."

"I'll leave now, Lin Feng, you continue your training. Aunt believes that one day you will be as excellent as your father, a great blacksmith!" The fat aunt encouraged him before leaving, her attitude much better than when she arrived.

However, becoming an excellent blacksmith?

That's not Lin Feng's goal.

Becoming an Artisan, Lin Feng is somewhat interested in that.

After the fat aunt left, Lin Feng continued his training.

While training, he also did business. Lin Feng is probably the only one who does this.

...

After dinner, moving the ore needed for the next day, Lin Feng was so tired he could hardly walk, not even wanting to move his fingers.

This was the most tiring and fulfilling day of his eighteen years.

Entering the Number One space, Lin Feng continued to study the third level of the初级 version of "Elimination."

Silently watching Lin Feng immersed in the game, Number One couldn't understand why Lin Feng was so fully immersed in this game that everyone despises.

After all, this game is known as one of the ten most boring games in the Alliance.

"This host is indeed special."
