High-level martial arts: Starting with a heart of steel, stats crush everything.

"You've ended it too?"

Gu Feng turned to look at Yang Zuo, who had been out for a while.

"Yes, your human race's technology is really convenient." Yang Zuo nodded, as his Celestial Race did not have such convenient technology.

There are only countless resources and extremely strict teachers.

"That's right, technology changes lives." Gu Feng sat down next to Yang Zuo and took a sip of mineral water.

After glancing at the empty No. 4 gravity tempering chamber, he turned to look at the No. 1 gravity tempering chamber where Chen Mo was.

"puff!"

Gu Feng spat out a mouthful of water and took a big step to stand in the No. 1 gravity tempering chamber where Chen Mo was.

The No. 1 tempering room was covered in blood. Chen Mo sat cross-legged on the ground like a blood gourd, with blood spurting from his skin from time to time.

It's a human-shaped fountain.

"No, buddy! Didn't you see me?"

Gu Feng turned to look at Yang Zuo, who looked calm, and wondered if Yang Zuo's brain had been crammed into the Celestial Race.

"I saw him, but there was nothing wrong with his breathing, so I didn't wake him up."

Yang Zuo nodded, got up and walked to the door of the No. 1 Gravity Tempering Chamber, looking at the fountain version of Chen Mo inside.

"That's not a problem? Didn't you see he's completely bald???"

Gu Feng lay on the transparent bulletproof glass and shouted at Chen Mo's shiny bald head.

"Your breathing is fine."

Yang Zuo shook his head, still believing that Chen Mo was alright.

Are you stupid?

"I'm not stupid."

"Fine, I'm just stupid."

"I'm not stupid."

Gu Feng completely gave up on communicating with Yang Zuo. This guy was like a human machine, with virtually zero emotional intelligence.

"What should we do? What should we do? This will damage the foundation!"

Gu Feng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but he did not have the authority to operate the gravity quenching chamber from the outside, so he could only watch Chen Mo inside like a fountain.

At this moment, Chen Mo did not notice the commotion outside. He was doing his best to temper the last piece of untempered skin on his body.

That's the fertility bag.

"Yo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh..."

Even Chen Mo found this soul-piercing pain unbearable; he could hardly imagine how ordinary martial artists tempered their reproductive organs.

Chen Mo even felt that being stabbed twice was more comfortable than having his genitals tempered.

"Almost there, almost there, just hang in there..." Chen Mo grimaced as he did his best to temper the last piece of skin.

As the stinging pain grew increasingly unbearable, the system announcement finally sounded!

[Congratulations, host, on completing the full-body skin tempering and achieving the Steel Skin Realm!]

[Defense increased, settlement in progress...]

[Congratulations, host! Your Steel-Skinned Realm has gained 6500 defense points!]

After hearing the system announcement, Chen Mo opened the system panel and glanced at his attributes.

Name: Chen Mo

【HP: 228396】

Life Response: 200 (per second)

[Qi and Blood: 5508]

Attack Power: 4298

Defense (Damage Reduction): 7920

【Mental Power: 500】

[Percentage damage reduction: 12%]

[Percentage Armor Penetration: 0]

[Fixed Armor Penetration: 0]

"Six thousand seven hundred and twenty defenses!" Chen Mo was overjoyed. His current defensive power was even stronger than that of the lord-level Rhinoceros King.

If we exclude freakish geniuses like Yang Zuo and Gu Feng, attacks from martial artists below level five would be completely unable to break through his defenses.

"Wait a minute, why is my Qi and Blood still only around 5,000?"

After reviewing his attributes, Chen Mo felt somewhat puzzled.

The breakthrough from level two to level three should have increased your Qi and Blood by several thousand at once, so why didn't it increase this time?

"No matter what, I have broken through from level three to level four Steel Skin Realm."

"Wouldn't this be considered the fastest breakthrough in history?"

Standing up, Chen Mo wiped the blood from his face.

"Um?"

Realizing something was wrong, Chen Mo touched his face again, then the top of his head.

"Where's my hair!?"

His scalp felt as smooth as a peeled boiled egg; it was even smoother than his buttocks!

Realizing something was wrong, Chen Mo quickly shut down the six times gravity, opened the door to the gravity tempering chamber, and went out.

Gu Feng stared blankly at the bald version of Chen Mo, who was covered in blood. He rubbed his eyes, his mind blank.

"Chen Mo...are you alright?"

"Something's happened! Something really serious!"

Chen Mo grabbed Gu Feng by the collar and pointed to his bald scalp, shouting.

Where is my hair?

"What about my thick hair?"

"I...I don't know! I didn't take your hair!" Gu Feng was shocked. It was the first time he had ever seen such a frightening Chen Mo.

"My hair..." Chen Mo actually knew that this had nothing to do with Gu Feng, but he just couldn't stand Gu Feng's flashy hairstyle.

"What happened? How is Chen Mo?"

Just as Chen Mo was mourning the loss of his hair, Song Bin suddenly appeared in front of them.

"......?" Song Bin looked Chen Mo up and down, then grabbed his arm.

"Is the tempering complete?"

"How is that possible...?"

Song Bin's face was full of disbelief. He ran his two large hands over Chen Mo's body, examining every inch of his skin.

"You... even tempered the skin of those little parts in your crotch into steel?"

"Otherwise, isn't the Steel Skin Realm just about tempering all your skin into steel?"

Chen Mo was in tears; the joy of breaking through to the fourth level of martial arts could not suppress the sorrow of losing his hair.

"You're right, but no one can refine all the skin on their body at once..."

Even Song Bin, a grandmaster, was a little stunned. This was the first time in all these years that he had ever seen someone temper their entire body's skin in one go.

"Hey, if you touch your genitals again, you probably won't have any hair left."

Chen Mohu's body trembled, and he unbuckled his belt and reached inside.

"..."

The entire third basement level fell into a deathly silence as Gu Feng and the others watched Chen Mo turn completely gray.

"My hair, my fur..."

"I thought that with your talent, you could only temper the skin of one arm at most, and it would take a week for the whole body."

Song Bin sighed, walked over to Chen Mo, and patted him on the shoulder.

"When the skin is tempered, the pores will shrink, and the hair that was once thick or thin will no longer be suitable for this body."

"Naturally, it will be eliminated, and then new hair will grow."

"Others gradually refine their skin, the old is discarded, and the new one grows quickly, so they naturally won't experience what you're going through."

"but......"

Song Bin hesitated for a moment, then could only pat Chen Mo on the shoulder and sigh.
