Buzz!

[Sanshou: Proficient (19%)+]

"As expected, the enhancement effect has weakened."

"Progress hasn't even reached twenty percent."

Shaking his head, Chen Feng let out a quiet sigh as he saw the panel prompt in the room.

Since he had anticipated this, he wasn't too disappointed.

The proficiency of Sanshou at the Proficient level was far stronger than at the Beginner level, so naturally, improving it was much harder.

The same Limit Breaking Light Orb could hardly achieve the same effect anymore.

"There's still one Limit Breaking Light Orb left."

Chen Feng glanced at the panel.

At this moment, the information inside had already changed.

[Talent: Perception lv1 (1/100)]

[Limit Break: 1]

The former had appeared the last time he left the Dream World, corresponding to the Perception Talent's information.

The latter only showed up whenever he obtained a Limit Breaking Light Orb and would disappear after use.

"Even if I boost it now, Sanshou will still be at the Proficient level. The effect won't be significant."

"There are only two choices."

"Either keep saving up until the assessment day, see if I can gather enough Limit Breaking Light Orbs to push it all the way to the Mastery level in one go."

"Or, learn another Martial Art, add points to reach Beginner and Proficient, and gain new attribute boosts."

His eyes flickered with hesitation as Chen Feng weighed his options.

Who could say for sure what the future held?

Take today, for example. He was just living an ordinary life when suddenly he ran into a robbery.

If his strength were insufficient, he would have no choice but to be at others' mercy.

Beyond that, he still wasn't sure whether Zhao Jin was involved in this or if he would quietly seek revenge.

Naturally, having even a little more strength meant having more confidence.

With that thought, Chen Feng found himself leaning toward the second option.

"I'll hold onto it for now."

Decision made, Chen Feng didn't continue adding points to Sanshou. Instead, he temporarily kept that one Limit Breaking Light Orb.

Then, he looked around the room.

He noticed that the sensation had completely vanished.

Clearly, there were no more Light Orbs nearby. The Perception Talent also had a range limit.

Shaking his head, he prepared to leave the apartment and continue searching.

But soon, his gaze shifted.

Chen Feng suddenly noticed that on the table by the window in this bedroom, there was actually a Diary Notebook!

He had overlooked it earlier because the Light Orb had drawn his attention.

"Take a look?"

Curious, Chen Feng wanted to understand whether this Dream World was real.

His curiosity piqued, he quickly walked over to the wooden table by the window and picked up the diary.

It was entirely brown, bound with a leather buckle.

Beside it, a fountain pen with no ink left was also clipped to the notebook.

Rustle!

Chen Feng shook the notebook. A bit of dust drifted up, tickling his nose.

Waving a hand and turning his head aside for a few seconds, he finally flipped open the first page.

There was a faint, musty smell.

But Chen Feng paid it no mind, soon drawn in by the words on the page.

[Did Not Expect I would actually become a Supernatural. What a surprise.]

[The people at the Martial Arts Hall all said I had no hope of breaking my limits, but who knew I'd be so lucky as to awaken a Supernatural Talent.]

[How wonderful. From now on, my name, Wang Yu, will surely echo throughout all of Green Port City.]

[Heh, heaven really played a joke on me.]

[It turned out to be the most useless Spirit Control Talent. I'll never have hope of reaching a higher rank of Supernatural. Sigh.]

[There must be a lot of people laughing at me behind my back. I regret it now—I shouldn't have gone to the Martial Arts Hall to show off in the first place.]

[Good news and bad news.]

[Bad news: The Black Calamity has appeared. Someone found traces out in the wilderness.]

[Good news: The Enforcement Team announced they've already dealt with the Black Calamity.]

[Praise the Enforcement Team. As expected, they're worthy of being Green Port City's guardians. Truly reliable.]

[These bastards in the Enforcement Team!]

[Didn't they say the Black Calamity was already eliminated? How could it erupt again?]

[Heavens above, as a low-rank Supernatural, I still have to answer the call and head to the battlefield.]

[I really regret it. I never should have awakened my talent.]

"Black Calamity?"

"Green Port City?"

The diary's content was sparse, like a young man's self-muttering confessions.

The script was very similar to Chi Kingdom's language on Earth Star, so Chen Feng could roughly grasp the meaning.

"It seems this city should be Green Port City."

"As for the Black Calamity..."

Chen Feng tilted his head to look out the window, suspecting that pitch-black mist was the Black Calamity.

His mind churned with guesses. He remembered the living room had a TV, so he quickly walked out.

After some fiddling, he pressed the switch.

The TV screen remained black, completely unresponsive.

The only thing he got was a thin layer of dust on his hand.

"Still can't turn it on."

Chen Feng frowned, rubbing the dust off his fingers.

Refusing to accept it, he went to the other rooms on the third floor.

In the end, no matter how he tried, the TV, the computer, and even a tablet he stumbled upon—none of them would power on.

Even with the circuits properly connected, it was the same.

"How strange."

Chen Feng shook his head inwardly, sensing something was off.

Could it be that none of the electronic devices here worked properly?

The guess surfaced, and he moved to leave the house to test things further.

Tap!

But in the next second.

The world before him suddenly shifted, as if a layer of mist had dispersed.

The familiar ceiling reappeared. A ray of sunlight spilled in, and the curtains swayed gently.

"Seven-oh-five already?"

Chen Feng quickly adjusted, reaching for his phone.

The screen unlocked. The time was exact—he had indeed Awakened from the dream.

Then, with a thought, he quickly opened his phone browser and searched two keywords.

[Green Port City]

[Black Calamity]

[No results found.]

The website returned an error. Chen Feng shook his head.

Of course, nothing came up.

Clearly, the Dream World and Earth Star were most likely not the same place.

"Phew!"

Thoughts flickered. Chen Feng exhaled, stood up, and pulled open the curtains.

The sky was azure, the clouds pale white.

Glass high-rises and old concrete buildings intermingled in a jagged skyline.

A kid with a backpack bit into a fried dough stick by the street, jogging to catch up with a bus.

Young men and women on their way to work shuffled lazily, yawning, and sat down at a snack shop.

A bustling, peaceful scene—completely different from the pitch-black Dream World.

"Whether there's a connection or not, it has little to do with me for now."

"The most important thing is to be strong enough myself!"

With that thought settled, Chen Feng had no other stray ideas.

He washed up and tidied himself, then quickly went to cook noodles and three eggs, also tearing open two bags of bread and an energy bar.

Proficient in Sanshou, plus the Attribute Light Orb he'd obtained this time, had sharply boosted his physical fitness.

Chen Feng felt his appetite had grown by another twenty to thirty percent.

Gulp! Gulp!

Until finally, he poured a large carton of hot milk into his mouth, let out a burp, and stopped, satisfied.

"Sure enough, as physical fitness improves, food consumption increases too."

"I wonder what those Professional Grade martial artists, or even true Martial Artists, eat every day."

With that thought passing through his mind, the full-bellied Chen Feng let his imagination wander.

Fortunately, there wasn't much to do in the morning. Thinking of his plan, he quickly took out his phone again.

"Coach Lu's advice is pretty sound. Judo and wrestling—I really can give them a try."

"I'll gain an extra technique and also strengthen my body. Kill two birds with one stone."

Without further delay, Chen Feng sat at the dining table, quickly opened a video app on his phone, typed in six characters, and tapped search.
