Full-Time Magister: The Strongest Summoned Beast is Actually Myself

Chapter 6, Blue Star Battle Qi

After that day, Chen Hongsheng went out. Originally, Chen Hao thought his father was short of money and was avoiding him.

Unexpectedly, half a month later...

Chen Hongsheng returned home carrying an inconspicuous black alloy box.

The box didn't look big, but it was surprisingly heavy; when it was placed on the dining table, the tabletop trembled slightly.

"Open it and take a look. Here's what you wanted. It's certified by Parthenon Authentication Agency, so it shouldn't be fake." Chen Hongsheng finished speaking and silently lit a cigarette.

Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, only then realizing that his father had actually gone to Athens in person. He felt a warmth in his heart; this was what it felt like to be cared for.

He strode forward, placed his palm on the surface of the alloy box, and could feel a faint coolness, and even a sense of oppressive pressure that made his heart pound, leaking out from the gaps.

The box was opened, revealing bottles of sealed red serum. A few wisps of silver light floated on the surface of the blood, as if some life force had not yet completely died.

—Semen and blood of a Titan larva from Earth, 92% pure.

It was much higher than he had expected.

“This batch of goods wasn’t cheap; it was only with the help of a blacksmith friend of mine who I used to be on good terms with. You better step up your game, kid.” Chen Hongsheng patted him on the shoulder, his tone unusually serious.

Chen Hao nodded slightly, without saying anything more, and went straight back to his room with the box in his arms.

That night, he locked the door from the inside, sat cross-legged on the bed, took a deep breath, and slowly opened the bottle of semen.

[High-purity primate demon blood essence detected, meeting the advancement criteria. Proceed with blood fusion breakthrough?]

"confirm."

Please follow the steps below to advance to the next level.

Following the system's instructions, Chen Hao found a stone slab and carved a strange and profound magic circle on it. He then poured the essence blood of the Blue Star Titan into the circle. The thick blue essence blood slowly flowed along the grooves of the magic circle, as if attracted by some invisible force, gradually seeping into the core of the circle along the complex rune trajectory.

As the last drop of blood essence fell into the center, the magic circle seemed to be ignited, emitting a faint silver-blue glow. The air in the entire room seemed to be compressed and become stagnant.

[Please begin the advanced stage!]

The advancement ceremony is expected to last 2 hours.

Chen Hao had already sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and no longer suppressed the desire for advancement within him. A certain energy was surging wildly within him, as if it were about to explode.

The next second, the essence blood in the array suddenly exploded into tiny blood-red particles, like billions of stardust, surging towards him from all directions, drilling into his pores, blood vessels, and bone marrow, and rushing straight into the depths of his soul.

A violent tearing sensation followed, as if all the bones in my body were being rebuilt, and my blood was being drained, filled, drained again, and filled again—a continuous cycle.

Chen Hao gritted his teeth, clenched his fists tightly, veins bulged on his forehead, and sweat instantly soaked through his clothes.

The body is experiencing pain that is difficult for ordinary people to bear, as if it were a test between life and death.

Time seemed to pass in an instant, yet it also felt like an eternity, a hellish ordeal.

Just as Chen Hao's consciousness began to fade and he was about to give up, the system's notification sounded like a morning bell and evening drum:
[Advanced ceremony concluded.]

[Congratulations, host! Blood fusion breakthrough successful!]

[Life Level: Early Servant Level] [Awakened Talent: Blue Star Battle Aura]

At the same time, Chen Hao suddenly opened his eyes, a silver-blue light flashed in the depths of his pupils, and his aura subtly changed—the density of his flesh, the toughness of his bones, and the strength of his muscles all increased dramatically!

He slowly raised his arm, clenched his fist slightly, and the air seemed to make a faint "crackling" sound.

"This is what you call physical enhancement..."

He muttered to himself, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

"Go out and test its power."

Chen Hao quickly changed his clothes and couldn't wait to go downstairs, where all his gym equipment was located.

At that moment, Chen Hongsheng was having tea and chatting with his friend Lao Li when he was startled to see Chen Hao, who looked noticeably bigger than he had two hours earlier, come downstairs. He suddenly remembered his son's instructions not to tell anyone, and now it seemed his son might be hiding something.

"Hey, Old Chen, has Xiao Hao grown taller again?" Old Li asked in surprise.

"Of course, look at whose genes you are. You brat, going out so late?" Chen Hongsheng said casually.

"Hello Uncle Li, I'm planning to work on my strength." Chen Hao walked towards his pile of gym equipment.

"This kid is already a magician, yet he still likes to mess around with these ordinary people's things. He's simply not doing his job properly..." Before Chen Hongsheng could finish speaking, he spat out a mouthful of tea.

Chen Hao lifted the half-ton barbell, which was filled with weight plates, directly above his head with one hand, and even subconsciously pushed it back and forth a few times, showing no signs of strain.

Old Li was also stunned by this scene. Was this even human?
The two men stared intently at the steel barbell in Chen Hao's hand, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Old Chen... your son is born with superhuman strength! He could probably tear demons apart with his bare hands, right?" Old Li's hands trembled, and his voice quivered.

"Magician, isn't that how it is?" Chen Hongsheng couldn't say anything more about genes. Even if there were five more, he wouldn't be able to lift that thing, let alone with one hand.

Chen Hao didn't do anything too outrageous; he practiced briefly and then went out.

After the recent confirmation, 500 kilograms is not his limit. He estimates that his current single-arm lifting limit should be over 800 kilograms.

Note that this value refers to the action of raising one arm overhead. If it were replaced with other simpler exercises such as bench press or deadlift, it would probably be even more terrifying, since raising one arm overhead is the most difficult and least effective exercise.

Other postures will more or less involve compensation from other body parts.

Chen Hao found a secluded spot and prepared to test the power of his battle qi.

He stood in an old, abandoned factory building. The night was deep, and all around was silent except for the dilapidated metal sheets rustling gently in the wind.

Chen Hao slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and, following the guidance given by the system, began to try to circulate the newly emerged energy within his body.

[Guide to Using Demonic Battle Aura, Stage One: Battle Aura Possession!]

In an instant, Chen Hao felt as if his body had been ignited. Scalding energy surged through his meridians, flowing through his limbs and bones, and finally condensed into a faint blue halo on the surface of his skin.

It was an indescribable feeling—the flesh and blood seemed to be thoroughly strengthened, the bones seemed to be infused with steel-like toughness, the tendons were full of explosive power, and the whole body was lighter and stronger than ever before!
His breathing became deep, and with each inhale, it was as if he were inhaling some element from the air; with each exhale, the surrounding air was subtly impacted, rippling slightly.

"...Is this what it means to be possessed by battle qi?"
