Online Game: Me, with Unparalleled Comprehension

After leaving Qingshan Town, Wu Changfeng rode his black horse northward along the official road for about ten miles. The farmland and houses on both sides of the road gradually became sparse, replaced by rolling hills and dense forests.

He reined in his horse, looked around, and finally chose a valley with jagged rocks and dense shrubs on the east side of the official road.

The location here isn't too remote, but it's enough to block the view. Some grayish-brown shadows are flickering in the depths of the valley; they are level 15 "Ironback Mountain Boars," with thick skin and thick flesh, and their movements aren't very agile, which is perfect for him.

He dismounted, tied the horse to an old tree far from the spawn point, patted the horse's neck, and left some hay.

They headed straight for the valley.

Upon seeing the first Ironback Mountain Boar with its head bowed and its bristles like steel needles, Wu Changfeng rushed forward.

The "Mountain-Splitting Fist" begins, slamming a punch into the wild boar's thick shoulder blade with a muffled thud. The wild boar howls in pain, and a damage count of -588 floats above its head.

The wild boar, its eyes red, charged forward with its head down. Wu Changfeng unleashed his "Flying on Grass" footwork, lightly gliding to the side and whipping out his right leg like a whip, striking the wild boar's side with a -501.

He was completely absorbed. His mind was free of distractions, focused solely on the actions and the numbers.

With continuous practice, the five newly learned third-rate martial arts skills—fist, palm, leg, body movement, and external skills—are constantly improving.

The charge and tusk-splitting of the iron-backed wild boar became clear and slow in his eyes.

He would occasionally use the rudimentary techniques of the Stone Skin Technique to withstand a few blows, feeling the dull pain and slight numbness as the rough pigskin hit his body, and watching his proficiency in the Stone Skin Technique fluctuate with each blow.

Sometimes he would push the "Flying on the Grass" to its limit, his figure weaving through the wild boar herd, leaving a trail of afterimages and making several wild boars dizzy.

Repeated punches, kicks, dodges, and blocks. Sweat quickly soaked through his newly changed, clean outfit, and his arms and thighs ached from the continuous exertion.

As soon as one wild boar falls, another appears, seemingly endlessly.

But Wu Changfeng didn't find it boring.

He was highly focused, constantly fine-tuning and optimizing the force and angle of each attack, and the timing and footwork of each dodge.

The newly learned martial arts skills quickly became fluent and natural, as if they had been practiced hundreds of times.

The proficiency indicator keeps popping up at the edge of the field of vision, and every kill or attack grants a steady 126 proficiency points.

The morning sunlight gradually became intense, then slowly softened.

When Wu Changfeng struck the last wild boar's skull with his "Pushing Stele Hand" technique, denting it and watching it turn into white light, he stopped, stood still, and exhaled a long breath of foul air, tinged with the smell of blood and sweat.

In the skill bar, the proficiency bars for "Mountain Opening Fist", "Stele Pushing Hand", "Whirl Leg", "Grass Flying", and "Stone Skin Skill" have already overflowed several times.

On a whim, he chose to get promoted.

Five streams of heat, each of varying strength but all quite considerable, washed over the body in succession.

The muscles and bones emitted subtle crackling sounds, and the control over strength, the coordination of the body, the use of speed, and the perception of defense all instantly rose to a new level.

[Mountain-Splitting Fist (Grand Perfection). Arm Strength +25, Constitution +5, Fist Damage +28%, with a certain chance to cause the "Shock" effect.]

[Pushing the Monument Hand (Great Perfection). Arm Strength +28, Constitution +8, Palm Damage +30%, Powerful Palm Force, with Additional Penetration Against Defense.]

[Stone Skin Technique (Great Perfection). Constitution +35, Maximum Health +400, External Defense +120, Reduces external damage taken by 15%, Qi circulation accelerates healing of superficial wounds.]

The attribute panel was refreshed again, and arm strength, agility, and constitution all increased dramatically.

Wu Changfeng clenched his fist, feeling an explosive power coursing through his body, and his steps were so light that he seemed to float away.

He walked back to where he had hitched his horse, took out the sesame seed cakes and dried meat he had bought in town that morning from his backpack, and sat under the shade of a tree, slowly chewing them with some water.

The virtual food soothed the virtual stomach, and the hunger level slowly returned. The black horse quietly nibbled on the hay nearby, occasionally snorting.

After resting for about fifteen minutes, his strength had mostly recovered. Wu Changfeng mounted his horse and continued north along the official road.

He continued eating his dry rations as he traveled. Time in the game flowed at the same pace as in reality.

But the simulation of hunger is so realistic it's almost frustrating.

He feels like he spends most of his day eating in the game, while only eating one or two meals in real life.

After running for more than thirty miles, the sun was already setting in the west.

Ahead, a more secluded forest appeared, with some level 16 blue wolves roaming in the clearings. They were faster than wild boars and their attacks were more cunning.

"This is it." Wu Changfeng dismounted and this time took out his goose-feather spear and iron-slaying sword.

Next, we practiced "Splashing Wind Knife Technique", "Gentle Breeze Sword Technique", "Central Level Spear", and "Eyebrow-Level Staff Technique".

He first took his spear and entered the forest. The Zhongping spear technique emphasizes steady and solid attacks, so he abandoned the agile and unpredictable style of the Jinghong spear technique he had used before, and each thrust was straight and steady, using force to overcome skill.

The wolf was fast, so he predicted its trajectory and shot it in the throat.

A sweeping swing of the gun barrel could also send the charging blue wolf flying.

His swordsmanship shifted to a frenzied, unrestrained style, pursuing ultimate speed. The white machete dropped from the wild boar he had just killed transformed into a screen of azure light in his hands. The sound of the blade cutting through the air was continuous, and the trajectory of the sword was almost invisible, with only the bursts of blood and soaring damage numbers on the blue wolf's body visible.

The swordsmanship has been changed to a gentle breeze, taking a light and agile approach. The sword moves no longer pursue ferocious output, but rather point, thrust, wipe, and flick, focusing on vulnerable points such as joints, eyes, and ears. Often, after a few strikes, the Blue Wolf's movements become sluggish, leaving him wide open.

The staff technique uses a staff that reaches the eyebrows, combining offense and defense.

The staff flashed, sweeping and slashing, keeping the attacking wolves at bay. Occasionally, a powerful thrust could be delivered, causing considerable damage.

He rotated between four different weapons, deliberately balancing his proficiency gains.

The setting sun cast his shadow long through the woods, and his clothes were soaked with sweat time and time again, only to be dried by the intense exercise.

Only the steadily fluctuating proficiency indicator and the occasional notification of realm advancement provide the most direct feedback.

As the sun set and only a faint crimson glow remained on the horizon, the last blue wolf howled and fell to the ground.

Wu Changfeng leaned on his goose-feather spear, his chest rising and falling slightly.

Opening the skill bar, the proficiency bars for the four martial arts skills had already reached their limits.

Promote.

The spear's intent is more concentrated, the blade's light is faster, the sword's wind is more agile, and the staff's momentum is more stable.

【Splashing Wind Blade Technique (Great Perfection). Strength +30, Agility +18, Blade Damage +32%, Attack Speed ​​+25%. Attacks are like a raging storm, relentless and continuous.】

【Qingfeng Sword Technique (Great Perfection). Strength +22, Agility +25, Sword Damage +28%, Attack Speed ​​+20%. Skilled in agile swordplay, adept at finding openings to attack.】

【Qi Mei Staff Technique (Great Perfection). Arm Strength +26, Constitution +12, Staff Damage +27%, Block Efficiency +25%. Well-rounded in offense and defense, adept at dealing with group attacks.】

At this point, apart from Iron Palm and the Wild Bull Strength which still requires time for meditation and practice, all nine third-rate martial arts skills newly learned at the Green Mountain Martial Arts School have reached perfection!
