Xianxia: Why am I here?

Chapter 65 Entering battleground

Chapter 65  Entering battleground

The are of hundred meters around Wang, the water was shaking, this was due to some change in his body, as his muscles and even bones were being affected at the moment. He knew what was going on as his sight was on the system panel.

Name: Wang Bo

....

Lifespan: 257 years

....

Attribute value: 62

....

Potential value: 86

....

Realm: grandmaster (1/5) (Early stage artistic conception)

....

Martial arts: White Tiger Fist( 9th level), Biyun Fist (9th level) Sea Calming Manual(small accomplishment), Indestructible Pragna (3rd Level)

At this moment Wang felt the Biyun fist breakthrough first then followed by the White Tiger fist as the Qi in his body was formed from the two, making them somehow codependent. In the process of practice, he seemed to have fused them as he could attack with the two at the same time from just carrying out changes in the pattern of attack.

More than that, his arm strength had already risen to 240,000kg, in itself was not to be trifled with and his main objective after this was to find some resources to push the Indestructible Pragna that was at the peak of the third level to the fourth level.

In the pool below the waterfall the heat from his body was already affecting the water and its temperature had risen even having some changes of water that was being boiled. At the same time, one could hear some sounds of tiger roars, though not very vivid, some tiger-like patterns were being reflected on his skin, almost resembling a tattoo, but the tigers were numerous and in small shapes. It continued on like this and the tiger patterns on his skin, increased from time to time and the same time shrunk before another shape of a blue drop of water could be seen also condensing on his skin surface like a tattoo.

It took the same behavior to the tattoos and after the patterns seemed mixed, slowly forming and the energy from his body was being drained in this process, thankfully his Indestructible Pragna was at the third level and allowed the energy being consumed to seem less. At the same time,, he could feel that the strength in his muscles was improving with the passage of time before the energy was being dragged from outside his body. He just heard the sound of something cracking in his body before this started to happen.

"Crick!"

This indeed seemed to have led to an even more intense change just like the way the cow usually absorbs energy from the outside world to strengthen its body, it was happening to him. He seemed to suddenly have an idea about the way to strengthen himself in the future, as the body arts from the Fist techniques seemed to have also stepped into the level of grandmaster. From this moment, his main goal would be to absorb energy, and the small patterns hiding under his skin would be the focus.

Changes in it may be the ones to decide the strength in his body and since he was more focused on the superficial he forgot to check the changes that were happening in his tissues even the bones. Embedded under them, were indeed the symbols of drops of water and tigers, each time they vibrated the bones seemed to be undergoing tempering and the situation was indeed unique as he saw some substances floating on the surface of the pool, before being dragged off by the flowing water. It was impurities from his body.

In this situation, he used his perception and could see that on his skin impurities were being expelled with the passing of time. The vibration seemed to have even affected all the hairs around his body that collapsed resulting in his body turning bald. With this change, Wang was excited too for the improvement in potential, and even his lifespan was raised slightly which made him expectant about the future.

....

In the forest military camp, an old man was looking through the list of the new recruits coming to join the battle and after his eyes passed through several names, he sighed, "It seems like I am indeed old, back then at this age we were still polishing the blood forging realm."

In half an hour the man seemed to have drafted some lists that he passed on to his subordinates and then asked them to follow the protocol with the rest. In the list, the strongest were assigned as the leaders, and the man did not seem to be bothered with it afterward, as long as the groups contributed to dealing with the aliens. Unlike most people, he seemed to have some insider information and did not care if the strong send their disciples to train here, in fact, it was a good thing for him.

In the military camp, Ruruo was not sitting in her residence as she left with the two women, walking into the streets, and felt some aroma coming from a certain direction. She thus headed straight there and her nature indeed makes it such that she does not concern herself with those she has no interactions with. But three beautiful women on the streets will obviously attract attention and other than her attempt to understand the domain, she seemed to have kept other issues out of her mind.

The two women behind her were more or less puzzled by why she changed directions but did not bother her, as some sort of oppression seemed to be emanating from Ruruo all the time and with her cold look, making others not even dare to approach.

By the time she reached the restaurant she could feel the number of eyes on them were numerous, "Indeed I seem to attract more attention even compared to before when I used to cover my face. I guess the aura around me has indeed changed a lot." as her thoughts turned, she entered a restaurant.

On the same floor of the restaurant, there were a group of individuals dressed differently compared to the villagers.

Ruruo could also see it at a glance and also seemed to sense their strengths, some being just stronger grandmasters. It was also understandable as the battlefield minimum qualifications were the second stage of grandmaster. Sitting on the side of the restaurant Ruruo seemed to see everything that happened in the restaurant.

"Guest! What would you like to order?" A young man the same age as Ago seemed to have approached her as he asked the order and she looked towards the table the aroma was coming from before pointing in the direction. "Just like the dish on that table."

Seeing that Ruruo had a cold look on her face, the young waiter was smart and did not talk much and left to bring the order.

After her meal, Ruruo used her pseudo-domain to make sure that not everyone could see her other than the two women she was moving with.

"Indeed no wonder my husband always seemed to want to avoid walking with me as the attention I attract is too much even without doing anything." She thought as she saw some men were even already moving towards them before their figures disappeared from the street, due to cover of the pseudo domain.

But the group of men had some intoxicated expressions as though they were chasing prey. She was not bothered by this and continued to move until she saw, some commotion before them. It was only then did she see the notice on the wall standing in the center of the military camp.

From the discussions she could hear, the deployment had been posted on the wall, and at this moment all the elites from the Ziyu City that came to this place to use the battleground as a place for experience could have the chance to act. Even in Ruruo's eyes, some excitement could not be hidden.

For practitioners, exercising all the time can become tiresome, and would want to go out and exercise their muscles having some enemies is the most ideal place as the power can be released without reservations in such conflicts since one would not have regrets about killing their enemies. Even Ruruo is not an exception after all she had already spent more time studying some fighting techniques and they were not for decoration, even if one has no enemies they would still fight and kill each other when they struggled for the resources they were scarce. This was also the biggest cause of war, and between martial artists, it was even more pronounced.

With those that want to act nice, they would be surpassed by others and in the end, the strong would always exploit the weak in a way, either by setting up rules as they wished and those that were weak would have to follow them. Just like it is said, rules are for the weak and if one is stronger than the ones that set them up, it is easier to operate with the choice to do it or not. The correct way to put it is that the strong have the choice of whether to do anything or not, and no one can pressure them into doing it.

For the moment even Ruruo had to observe the rules set up by some people in this world as she was not strong enough to just choose to do things her way. The number of strong people in this world was too many for her to act as she wished and she knew this unlike Wang that had no idea about this, but even if he knew this at the moment he would not be bothered by it at all.

Looking at the post, she had been given a task as some squid leader, that would allow her to accomplish her goals much easier.

"Well let's go to the battlefield then!"
