“Ah, Eunuch Liu, is that you? Are you alright...?” Upon seeing Eunuch Liu spit out blood, Yan Liqiang quickly threw the eight-meter-long weapon on the floor and rushed toward him, inquiring about his condition with great concern.

“I’m fine, I’m fine. I heard that you’ve been cultivating diligently in this archery range for the past few days. Initially, I wanted to come here and test your abilities, who knew... cough cough...” Before Eunuch Liu could finish, he began coughing violently as if his lungs had been damaged like leaking air bag. Yan Liqiang hurriedly patted Eunuch Liu’s back and slowly brought his breathing back to normal. After two whole minutes, Eunuch Liu’s complexion gradually returned to normal. He then waved his hand slowly as a gesture to Yan Liqiang to stop patting his back.

“The strength of the young will always triumph against the old...” Eunuch Liu shook his head and continued, “When I assaulted you, I was only using forty percent of my strength. I intentionally used my murderous intent to stir you just because I wanted to see the strength you would unleash should you encounter a situation with imminent danger. But I didn’t expect your reaction and power to be this devastating. I couldn’t even stand against that...”

Yan Liqiang scratched his head and said in an embarrassed tone, “I didn’t expect the assailant to be Eunuch Liu either either. Please forgive me...”

“It’s not your fault. It’s my fault for not anticipating such strength from you. This is truly an extraordinary power...” At this point, Eunuch Liu seemed to have noticed the heavy poles that were strapped on Yan Liqiang’s back with shackles. The weapon that he tried to attack Eunuch Liu with just now was also thrown down on the ground. This long spear assembled with four eight-meter-long metal poles seemed like it could truly make one’s blood curdle. Eunuch Liu then continued, “Are these the items you commissioned from the far away blacksmith workshop?”

“Yes, that’s right. These are the items that I commissioned from the blacksmith workshop!”

“One weighs how much?”

“350 jin!”

Upon hearing Yan Liqiang’s words, Eunuch Liu glanced at the large item on the ground and sucked in a mouthful of cold air. As he kneaded his still somewhat painful wrist, he muttered, “That means the thing you hurled toward me weighs about 1440 jin in total...”

“Yes, that’s about it...”

“The six things on your back must weigh...”

“2100 jin...” Yan Liqiang said in honesty. Even though he preferred to not publicize his business, Eunuch Liu had already seen everything. As a result, he felt that there was no need to hide anything in front of Eunuch Liu any longer.

Eunuch Liu listened to his answer and walked toward the item that Yan Liqiang had thrown on the ground. He took a deep breath and bent down, attempting to lift it up. However, even with all of his strength, he could only prop up the pole from the ground. Meanwhile, the other end of the pole was still touching the ground. After that, he finally put down the pole while gasping for air.

Eunuch Liu’s cultivation realm was considered high, yet this did not mean that his physical strength was undeniably stronger than Yan Liqiang’s. Despite the boost to one’s power as their cultivation realm increased, the boost had a limit. It would not give his power a sudden impetuous upgrade. Moreover, the boost was actually based on the person’s potential and internal cultivation. In addition to Eunuch Liu’s old age, his physical strength was not as powerful as before. Hence, it was normal for him to not be able to lift the metal pole that Yan Liqiang had used previously.

“Indeed, this weighs over 1400 jin...” Eunuch Liu shook his head before he shifted his gaze toward Yan Liqiang, “How did you manage to lift this heavy thing up?”

“I don’t know either!” Yan Liqiang put up a facade, pretending to not know the truth, “Ever since I broke through the Horse Stance, I feel my strength growing stronger each day. This month, I have been cultivating on a daily basis ever since I came to Deer Villa. My strength began to increase as well...”

“Then this is your inherent extraordinary power...” Eunuch Liu muttered to himself, “There was a general in the Great Han Empire two hundred years ago who was just like you, a person with inherent extraordinary power and a big appetite...”

“That’s probably it...” Yan Liqiang said as he scratched his head.

“Let me see you pick up this thing again...”

Yan Liqiang abided Eunuch Liu’s words and proceeded to bend down. Without much effort, he picked up the large pole with his hand.

When Eunuch Liu saw Yan Liqiang pick up the metal pole with such ease, his eyebrows unconsciously twitched. He then looked around at his surroundings before he pointed at a giant rock nearby, “Try to see if you can smash that giant rock into smithereens...”

The giant rock was about the size of two oxen heads. It was lying on top of a bunch of grass patches and seemed to weigh about four to five tons.

“Eunuch Liu, this is will make quite a commotion...”

“There’s no one else besides you and me here. Don’t worry. I will have the final say in this place. Don’t make me have you apologize for this...”

Upon hearing Eunuch Liu’s words, Yan Liqiang decided to keep quiet. He gazed at the rock as he wielded the eight-meter-long metal pole and let out a roar before rushing toward it. When the distance between him and the rock was about ten meters, he began spinning the metal pole with both of his hands and continued rushing forward. There wasn’t any technique to it and it was as simple as smashing the pole down with all his might...”

“Bang...” A loud sound rang out. The rock that was about the size of two oxen heads was smashed into smithereens from the center, causing debris to fly everywhere.

Once the giant rock was smashed, Yan Liqiang retracted his metal pole and stood without a change in his expression.

Eunuch Liu observed at the side and continued to dart his gaze around the smashed rock and Yan Liqiang’s body. A gleam then appeared in his eyes after witnessing such a demonstration. He didn’t utter a single word after that. It wasn’t until half a day had passed that he finally asked Yan Liqiang a question, “Well... does Lord Sun know about your inherent extraordinary strength?”

“When I followed Lord Sun last time, I did demonstrate this in front of a group of guards by lifting up shackles that weighed 300 jin, just like this time. However, Lord Sun has never witnessed something like this before...” Yan Liqiang shook his head in response.

“Does this mean that I am the first person to witness your extraordinary power?”

“I guess so!”

“You must have been cultivating the spear technique just now, right?”

“That’s right. Eunuch Liu is very perceptive. I am currently cultivating a basic spear technique. I have never learned of any other advanced spear techniques before!”

Eunuch Liu sighed, “With your strength at this level, even if you have not yet learned any advanced spear techniques, as long as the weight of your weapon can keep up with your speed, no one would be able to block the thrust of your spear and the wallop of your pole. I almost received a monstrous beating from you just now, let alone other people. I heard that you have taken a sturdy ten picul bow too. Is the strong five picul bow no longer suitable for you?”

It was at this point that a shred of dejection appeared on Yan Liqiang’s expression, “I don’t want to hide this from Eunuch Liu, but I accidentally broke the five picul bow during practice a few days ago. Therefore, I went to the storehouse and took a strong ten picul bow to practice with instead...”

“The situation in the Imperial Capital is complicated. It is best that you refrain from allowing too many people to know about your inherent extraordinary power for now!”

“Eunuch Liu, thank you for the reminder. I understand!”

“Mm, if you need anything within these few days, feel free to ask. If you need something special, you can come and find me directly...” Eunuch Liu swept his gaze at Yan Liqiang’s feet as he spoke. The pair of ordinary martial art shoes that he was wearing was already damaged when he smashed the giant rock with the metal pole due to the immense strength he had exerted on the ground. The shoes were unable to sustain such power, thus leading to their destruction, causing his toes to peek through the holes. It was at this moment that Eunuch Liu finally realized why Yan Liqiang was quick to ‘wear out’ his shoes...

“Alright, I will remember that. Thank you, Eunuch Liu!”

“Mm!” Eunuch Liu’s voice was still resounding in Yan Liqiang’s ears, but as he lifted his gaze up to look at Eunuch Liu, he had already vanished.

Yan Liqiang did not think too much of it either. He felt that Eunuch Liu had no evil intentions toward him, so after Eunuch Liu left, he decided to continue his cultivation in the forest since the day was still young and he still had a lot of energy left in his body. By doing so, he hoped that he would be able to reap a greater result after he recovered from the training later on.

Within this month, Yan Liqiang realized that the result of the Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing had already overthrown his initial expectations. With the exponential increase of his stamina each day, he realized that using his physical strength to the point of exhaustion within a short period of time proved to be increasingly difficult. The only thing he could do now was continuously increase the load on his body.

The prologue of the Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing foretold that Marshal Yue also possessed such a terrifying power of the world. But based on Yan Liqiang’s perception, he felt that the effectiveness of the Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing cultivation in this world seemed to be more dreadful and grim than that of his previous life on Earth due to the abundance of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and energy. The result he reaped from the past few days had also exceeded his expectations.

Yan Liqiang never thought that he could present that many surprises to Eunuch Liu today. As Yan Liqiang continued to practice in the archery range, Eunuch Liu was already sitting on a carriage and leaving Deer Villa in a hurry. His destination was none other than the Imperial Palace itself...
