Chapter 5

Facing the overwhelming pressure of the powerful Force, Li Yi was not only not intimidated, but he gritted his teeth and tried to break free from this restraint.

By the time he completed the third round of the long fist, Li Yi gradually felt the Force flowing within his body. It was a very peculiar sensation, as if there was a small train inside his body, slowly circling around his meridians.

When Li Yi finished three rounds of the long fist, the training time was over. The screen showed that Li Yi's Force value was 0.3.

"Force index 0.3? It took me almost eight years to reach 0.2, and today I improved by 0.1 in just one day?" Li Yi looked at the display on the screen and couldn't help but feel excited.

"This is the benefit of the Morning Star system. I detected that the owner's body has very high cellular activity. This rapid progress should continue for some time," Kele said happily.

Li Yi nodded heavily and strode out of the training room, his expression somewhat excited.

He saw that his classmates, who had entered the training room with him, were already sprawled out in all directions, all looking very painful. Liu Jinyuan's large head was drenched in sweat, as if he had just taken a shower.

The instructor Taida said sternly, "To be honest with you, today the Force training room was only operating at its lowest power. Tomorrow, I will increase the power by ten percent! Go home, wash up, and go to sleep! The real hellish training hasn't even started yet!"

...

The next morning, in the Force training room.

An Xiaobai entered first, just like yesterday. This was a privilege for the top students. Among the day's activities, the morning was when a person's energy was most abundant, and only the best students could use the training room in the morning.

An Xiaobai, who had always been a top student, was not only a talented warrior but also a well-known beauty. She had red lips, white teeth, and long black hair that flowed smoothly behind her, exuding a fresh and alluring aura.

An Xiaobai's beauty was widely recognized in the school, but few dared to approach her because, while beautiful, her demeanor was cold, and she was not very talkative, being a quiet and reserved girl.

Moreover, An Xiaobai's background was quite mysterious. According to rumors, someone had once seen her walk into the No. 4 courtyard in the south of the city, which belonged to the high-ranking officers of the Jinan War Zone. The soldiers responsible for the security of the No. 4 courtyard not only did not stop her but also saluted her.

The screen still showed Li Yi's Force value from yesterday, 0.3? An Xiaobai frowned slightly, thinking to herself, who is this person? Their performance is so poor? She felt somewhat disdainful towards Li Yi.

On the third day, it was still An Xiaobai who used the Force training room first, and the remaining value had become 0.4!

An improvement of 0.1 in the Force index in just one night? Even An Xiaobai, who was hailed as a genius of China, found it hard to believe, thinking she might have seen things wrong.

On the fourth day, An Xiaobai habitually looked up at the value Li Yi had left from the previous day, and it had become 0.5! Another 0.1 increase in the Force value!

After leaving the Force training room, An Xiaobai curiously looked at the usage board hanging above. She was the first user every day, and the last one was Li Yi.

"Li Yi?" An Xiaobai muttered thoughtfully.

On the fifth day, Li Yi's Force value increased by another 0.1, reaching an astonishing 0.6!

An Xiaobai had to start taking Li Yi seriously. The speed at which this stranger's Force was improving was almost insane!

It's worth noting that a genius like An Xiaobai, from the beginning of her training to now reaching the level of an eighth-grade warrior, took a full eight years! According to Li Yi's current rate, he would only need 80 days to reach the same level as her!

80 days...

It took An Xiaobai eight years of training to achieve eight Force units, and she was called a genius. What should someone with an even faster improvement rate be called? A monster?

An Xiaobai, who rarely smiled, even went so far as to inquire around the campus about who Li Yi was. When she saw Li Yi in person, she was somewhat puzzled.

It wasn't that Li Yi was ugly; it was just that Li Yi, who had grown up in a place under the overpass where all sorts of people mixed, had a bit of a rogue's aura.

An Xiaobai always believed that geniuses should be extremely intelligent, hardworking, and have a positive and ambitious image. Li Yi's image was completely different from what An Xiaobai imagined a genius to be.

When she saw Li Yi leave the campus and light a cigarette without any restraint, An Xiaobai found it even harder to believe that this rogue-looking, joke-telling youth could be a genius more powerful than herself?

Fate always likes to play tricks on people. A typical top student like An Xiaobai, by all logic, should never have noticed someone like Li Yi, who was at the bottom of the class. But An Xiaobai couldn't help but think about him, and every night, the image of Li Yi with a cigarette in his mouth would appear in her mind.

Now, An Xiaobai had developed a habit. The first thing she did every day when entering the training room was to secretly note down Li Yi's Force index before the screen cleared, and she was also looking forward to Li Yi's performance the next day.

0.7!

0.8!

0.9!

Li Yi certainly didn't disappoint An Xiaobai. The remaining numbers appeared one by one in An Xiaobai's breathtakingly beautiful eyes, each time making her remember Li Yi's name even more deeply.

...

Since completing the body reconstruction, Li Yi entered a period of rapid improvement. Besides the daily progress that surprised Li Yi, the increasing appetite also became a problem for him.

From the start of the summer training on July 1st to now, July 7th, in less than a week, Li Yi found himself out of money, with only a pitiful hundred or so yuan left in his pocket.

He was an orphan, receiving a monthly allowance of 600 yuan from the tactical school. The house was left by his parents, so he didn't have to pay rent, and his life was relatively comfortable.

But now, Li Yi's appetite had increased significantly, and he wanted to eat meat with every meal. Currently, Li Yi could only feel half-satisfied after eating two pounds of beef, and the rest had to be supplemented with flatbreads.

Lighting a cigarette, Li Yi frowned slightly, pondering how he could earn some money using the Star Network.

Buying things on the Star Network naturally required money, but fortunately, there was a lot of free information on the Star Network, such as scientific journals and professional books.

"Master, I have detected that your body needs to replenish energy again. The energy provided by the ten packets of instant noodles tonight is limited and cannot meet your daily training needs."

"According to the energy index of Earth's food, beef is a very good basic food, rich in protein, low in fat, and contains sufficient calories. Therefore, I suggest you supplement with one kilogram of beef, one liter of milk, one kilogram of vegetables, one kilogram of fruit, and 0.5 kilograms of starch. Also, I have found that some medicinal herbs on Earth are very beneficial to the body, such as American ginseng and caterpillar fungus..."

Li Yi quickly stopped Kele, sighing, "If I eat like this, I will really go hungry this month. As for American ginseng and such herbs, do you know how much they cost per tael?"

"It doesn't take much. Three kilograms of American ginseng per month would be enough," Kele said naively.

Li Yi was speechless at Kele, who didn't need to eat or drink. Three kilograms of American ginseng per month? Even if Li Yi sold himself, he couldn't afford it.

"Being a warrior is really a money-burning profession. If I obtain a初级 warrior certificate, my monthly allowance can be increased to 1,000 yuan, but it's still not enough," Li Yi muttered to himself.

Glancing at Kele, Li Yi said with a mischievous smile, "Kele, can you think of a way to make some money, like using your abilities to hack into the bank system and rob a little..."
