Super Martial Era: My Little World

Chapter 2: Ferocious Beast Fruit
The next day, in martial arts class.

Yang Lie took out a Peiyuan Pill and swallowed it in one gulp, then performed the basic stance method and adjusted his breathing. A light warm current flowed through his body, strengthening his Qi, blood, and physique.

Yang Lie's eyes lit up: "Sure enough, swallowing pills is much more effective than ordinary cultivation!"

Ten days later.

Yang Lie swallowed the last of the Pei Yuan Dan pills and began practicing the basic stance method. Before long, he felt his blood boiling as he continued practicing the basic stance method. Then, an even stronger surge of Qi and blood emerged from his body, flowing into his limbs and bones, causing his entire body to swell slightly. It took a while for him to calm down.

Yang Lie raised his lips slightly: "The Qi and blood have changed! It's done!"

The Qi and Blood Realm is the foundation of martial arts practice, so anyone can achieve this level of Qi and Blood within ten days by taking the Pei Yuan Dan and eating spiritual rice and fierce beast meat. Without the Pei Yuan Dan, an ordinary person with adequate nutrition and diligent practice for six months can also achieve this level of Qi and Blood.

Yang Lie came to the punching force testing machine nearby and punched it.

"178 kilograms!"

Yang Lie raised his lips slightly. "When I was testing it before, my punch was only 78 kilograms! After completing the first transformation of Qi and Blood, my punching power has increased by 100 kilograms! Just this one transformation of Qi and Blood has already made my physical fitness far surpass that of ordinary Earthlings. If I complete the ninth transformation of Qi and Blood, I'll be considered a little superman on Earth!"

"178 kilograms! Looks like he's completed a Qi and Blood Transformation!"

"We have another master of Qi and blood transformation in our class!"

"..."

The classmates gathered around and talked about it for a while.

Beihe No. 1 Middle School was the top school in Beihe Base City, attracting the children of the city's elite. Many of them took Yuan-nourishing Pills daily, ate beast meat, and ate low-grade spiritual rice. Twelve of them had already reached the Qi and Blood Transformation Stage.

Yang Lie returned home and entered the small world directly. He saw a plant less than 30 centimeters tall growing in the center of the one-acre land, with a red fruit growing on the top of the plant.

"Mature!"

Yang Lie's eyes lit up, he picked the red fruit and swallowed it in one gulp. A warm current flowed through his body, strengthening his body.

The next day, after the martial arts class ended.

Yang Lie took advantage of everyone leaving and punched the punching force testing machine.

"208 kilograms!"

Yang Lie's eyes lit up, and he smiled. "That's right! According to current data, the average punching force of a warrior who has reached the ninth level of Qi and Blood Transformation is 1000 kilograms, and the highest punching force is 2100 kilograms! If I continue to swallow exotic fruits like the Crimson Fierce Ant Fruit, I might be able to break the record for a warrior who has reached the ninth level of Qi and Blood Transformation!"

In the following days, Yang Lie maintained a repetitive life, practicing basic stances, basic boxing, basic swordsmanship, and basic spearmanship, while taking Peiyuan Pills every day. Two months later, he was successfully promoted to a martial artist with the second level of Qi and blood transformation.

On this day, in the small world.

"Today is the last Scarlet Ant Fruit! I'm really looking forward to it!"

Yang Lie swallowed the scarlet fierce-armored ant fruit in one gulp. A warm current surged through his body, and then seemed to combine with the remaining strength in his body, madly strengthening his body and causing him to feel waves of severe pain.

An hour later, the transformation was complete.

"I can feel that my strength has increased dramatically again! And my defense has also increased significantly!"

After Yang Lie stood up from the ground, he left the small world directly and took out a kitchen knife and slashed it across his hand.

A feeling like thick old cowhide came from it. Yang Lie kept increasing his strength and used about 70% of his strength to barely cut his arm.

Yang Lie's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a smile. "Amazing! My physical defense is probably comparable to that of a Qi and Blood Realm warrior who has practiced martial arts like the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt!"

Yang Lie and other high school students are all college seeds. Their goal is to break through the Qi and Blood Realm and advance to the Yunzhen Realm, so that they can gain an advantage in the college entrance examination and be admitted to college.

Practicing hard skills like the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt requires a lot of Qi and blood, so most high school students don't practice them. Only retired soldiers who were drafted into the army after graduating from junior high school can practice martial arts like the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt at the Qi and Blood Realm.

The next day, after the martial arts class ended.

"748 kilograms!"

杨烈看着拳力测试机上显示的数字，露出了一丝笑容：“9颗赤红凶甲蚁果实的果实一共让我增加了470公斤的拳力。前面8颗一颗增加30公斤拳力，第9颗完成蜕变之后，一口气增加了230公斤拳力。”

Yang Lie was happy for a while, then quietly assessed his own strength.

"My current strength can rival warriors with Qi and Blood Transformation 7, but those warriors are proficient in martial arts, while I only know basic boxing and sword techniques! I'm afraid that even warriors with Qi and Blood Transformation 4 who are proficient in martial arts will not be their match."

"What a shame! Those pig-like beasts, known for their strength, generally weigh several hundred kilograms. Each kilogram of meat costs several hundred yuan, so a single one costs hundreds of thousands. I only have four million in savings, so even buying nine pig-like beasts is difficult."

Yang Lie's savings of four million was the pension he received after his parents died in battle. This pension was not a small amount for an ordinary person, but it was not enough for martial arts practice.

Yang Lie pondered, "The cheapest ones are the Ant Beasts! But individual Ant Beasts are weak! If I want to significantly increase my strength, I should choose the Wolf Beasts! Wolves aren't as strong as Pig Beasts, but they have more bones, are powerful, and are very agile, and they're cheap. Although there are dozens of first-level Ant Beasts, they're more cost-effective, but my time is limited!"

To gain the power of a fierce beast, Yang Lie must spend 90 days cultivating the fruit. He can only obtain the full power of four fierce beasts in a year. He also needs to cultivate high-quality spiritual rice in the second year, so naturally he has to choose the fierce beast with the best cost-effectiveness.

Yang Lie went directly to the market and spent 20,000 yuan to buy a complete first-grade low-quality black-haired wolf corpse and threw it into the small world for cultivation.

Ten days later, a thirty-centimeter plant grew in the center of an acre of land in the small world, and on the top of the plant was a black fruit the size of a longan.

"Black-haired wolf fruit!! I'm really looking forward to it!"

A hint of anticipation flashed across Yang Lie's eyes, and he swallowed the fruit in one gulp.

A heat flowed rapidly through Yang Lie's abdomen, surging through his body. Some of the heat strengthened his torso, while more strengthened his legs. An hour later, the strengthening was complete.

“I feel stronger and lighter!”

Yang Lie moved his body in the small world, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

The next day, in martial arts class.

He Qing stood aside and said calmly, "Today is the final exam! Students whose names I call, please come up! Lin He and Fang Xiong, come up."

The two young men came to the center of the martial arts arena, saluted, and then started fighting. They exchanged dozens of moves, and finally Fang Xiong was knocked to the ground by Lin He's punch, losing the round.

"Yang Lie, Zhou Wei!"

Yang Lie came to the center of the martial arts arena, and a tall, short-haired, acne-covered boy also came to the center of the martial arts arena.

The two men bowed to each other.

"start!"

"kill!"

Zhou Wei's eyes fixed, he roared, and threw a jab towards Yang Lie's face.

"so slow!"

Yang Lie casually slapped Zhou Wei's fist, deflecting it and slapping him directly in the center of his chest.

Zhou Wei was slapped away by Yang Lie's palm and fell to the ground, writhing in pain. Two students quickly stepped forward and carried him to the infirmary.

"Instant kill? Zhou Wei is a master of the third level of Qi and Blood Transformation!!"

"Yang Lie is actually stronger than Zhou Wei?"

"..."

The students sitting around immediately started talking.

There were only ten masters of the third level of Qi and Blood Transformation in Beihe No. 1 High School's first year, and they were all prominent figures in the class. Yang Lie had always been relatively unknown in the first year of Beihe No. 1 High School, but today, he became famous.

A hint of surprise flashed across He Qing's eyes. "What a powerful force! What a fast speed! Could it be that he has already reached the seventh level of Qi and Blood Transformation? Could it be that he is a genius of the same level as Fang Lingxiu?"

He Qing walked directly in front of Yang Lie and said, "Yang Lie, go test your punch strength on the punching machine! Give it your all!"

"Yes!"

Yang Lie came to the punching force testing machine, mobilized the power of qi and blood, and punched the punching force testing machine.

"802 kilograms!"

"802 kilograms? How did this guy train?"

"Eighth Transformation of Qi and Blood? Damn, he's actually a monster on the same level as Fang Lingxiu?"

“Isn’t this too awesome?”

"..."

When the students around saw this scene, everyone's eyes were filled with shock, and they looked at Yang Lie with a bit of strangeness in their eyes.

He Qing glanced at the students around him and asked, "Besides Fang Lingxiu, who else wants to challenge Yang Lie?"

The surrounding students looked at each other in bewilderment, none of them willing to step forward. Aside from Fang Lingxiu, the strongest among them was only at the third level of Qi and Blood Transformation. If they went to challenge Yang Lie, they would most likely end up humiliated.

"I come!"

A tall, short-haired, handsome boy walked out of the crowd.

"It's Zhang Linghe! He's a member of the martial arts club! It's said that he has mastered the family's Huang-level martial arts, Crane Fist!"

"Although he only has the third level of Qi and Blood Transformation, if he adds martial arts skills, he should have a chance of defeating Yang Lie!"

"..."

Many girls looked at Zhang Linghe, their eyes lit up, and they talked about him.

He Qing said calmly: "Let's start!"

As soon as He Qing finished speaking, Zhang Linghe performed the Crane Fist. He seemed to have transformed into a crane. His fist technique was ethereal, and his right palm turned into a bird's beak, pecking fiercely at Yang Lie's eyes.

Yang Lie slapped Zhang Linghe's right palm.

"You got Fooled!"

Zhang Linghe shouted loudly and quickly changed his moves. He hit Yang Lie's chest with his left palm. Then he felt as if he was hitting an old cowhide, and a powerful recoil force came from it.
