"Hmm, my physical strength had probably increased threefold, maybe fourfold?" Wang Yi guessed inwardly.

The rate of improvement was unbelievable.

Before this, Wang Yi's physical development had already approached 1,300 kilograms.

Based on Wang Yi's vague perception, his physical development should now be between 5,000 and 6,000 kilograms!

His first cultivation of Gene Energy had increased his strength by nearly four or five thousand kilograms!

That was terrifying!

One had to know that the degree of improvement from one's first cultivation also represented a person's aptitude.

For some people, an increase of 300 kilograms in punching force during their first cultivation was fairly common.

An increase of 600 kilograms was considered rather outstanding.

An increase of over 1,000 kilograms meant they were elite.

And an increase of over 2,000 kilograms meant they were a genius!

Yet Wang Yi's first cultivation had multiplied his original foundation three or four times over!

Wang Yi knew he was not that gifted. Otherwise, after struggling for so many years, he would not have remained merely an ordinary Advanced Martial Arts Student.

"It's probably because my Gene Level has increased," Wang Yi guessed. "And I can feel that my absorption efficiency may far surpass that of other Martial Artists."

He could not help sighing inwardly. This Nine-Calamity Secret Manual truly defied the heavens. No wonder it had been one of Luo Feng's trump cards for increasing his strength in the original work.

Wang Yi's physical development had reached the level of five or six thousand kilograms of strength. With a threefold Gene Level, that became fifteen to eighteen thousand kilograms of strength.

The punching-force threshold for an Advanced Warrior was 4,000 kilograms!

The punching-force threshold for a Junior Wargod was 8,000 kilograms!

The minimum punching force for a Mid-level Wargod was 16,000 kilograms!

In other words, with the help of his Gene Level, Wang Yi's current physical fitness had already reached a level comparable to a Mid-level Wargod Martial Artist!

Only two months had passed since Wang Yi acquired the Sign-in Panel in April, yet his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds. From an ordinary Advanced Martial Arts Student, he had soared all the way to a level comparable to a Mid-level Wargod!

This rate of progress was simply terrifying!

However, only the first cultivation could produce such astonishing absorption results. Afterward, the pace would gradually slow down.

"This is only the beginning. In the future, I'll become stronger and stronger."

Wang Yi looked at the rising sun outside the window, and it seemed to represent his own life as well.

Early in the morning, Wang Yi arrived at Luo Feng's home.

"Ah, it's Xiao Wang. Why did you have time to come over?" Luo Feng's parents, Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan, recognized their son's friend and were somewhat surprised.

"Quick, come in and have a seat." They hurriedly welcomed Wang Yi inside.

Luo Feng's parents were very warm toward him because they knew their son had very few true friends.

Meanwhile, Luo Feng's younger brother, Luo Hua, a pale and frail-looking boy, sat in a wheelchair and blinked as he looked at Wang Yi.

Looking at the shabby, cramped home, Wang Yi felt somewhat emotional. Although it was not his first time seeing it, every time he came to Luo Feng's home and saw the family squeezed into this impoverished little place, he could not help feeling uncomfortable.

Although Wang Yi's family circumstances were poor as well, one must not forget that Luo Feng's family also had Luo Hua, who was disabled. Just caring for Luo Hua had exhausted the entire family.

Luo Feng's resolute nature was probably also influenced by the harsh environment he had grown up in.

"Uncle, Auntie, there's no need to be so polite. I have something to do later, so I'll be leaving soon," Wang Yi quickly said.

At the same time, his consciousness silently operated the golden Sign-in Panel.

"Sign in."

Ding! Congratulations, Host, on successfully signing in. Reward: Apprentice Ninth Order Mental Power Bead. Your Mental Power has increased. Remaining sign-ins at this location: 0

When this information appeared in Wang Yi's mind, an dark golden sphere slowly emerged out of nowhere within the vast white mist of his Sea of Consciousness.

Wang Yi could observe with his consciousness that the dark golden sphere kept spinning, while at the same time releasing wisps of white mist.

Wang Yi could feel that his perception of his surroundings had greatly increased.

With a thought, an invisible force spread outward like ripples.

It was as though he had gained an invisible eye, centered on Wang Yi, standing high above and overlooking everything around him.

When he focused his attention, he could clearly see even the path of a fly flying dozens of meters beyond the window.

When he concentrated, the sounds and movements of the entire building reached his ears.

At that instant, Wang Yi felt as though everything was within his grasp.

Wang Yi had a feeling that he could control the invisible force in his mind to manipulate other objects.

But naturally, Wang Yi would not do that inside Luo Feng's home.

"So this is Mental Power," Wang Yi murmured inwardly.

The human body possessed two kinds of power. One came from the body's genes and was called Gene Energy.

The other came from the mysterious soul and was called Mental Power.

Generally speaking, those who could cultivate Gene Energy could collectively be called Martial Artists.

Those who could use Mental Power, meanwhile, were called Mental Masters.

Mental Masters also cultivated Gene Energy. They were the most special and mysterious group among Martial Artists.

Even across the entire world, Mental Masters were extremely rare.

Because they cultivated both Gene Energy and Mental Power, every Mental Master could be called invincible among those of the same rank.

The reason was that the power of their Mental Power was two levels stronger than their physical strength.

An Advanced Warrior-level Mental Master could possess the Mental Power strength of a Mid-level Wargod.

Moreover, Mental Masters could manipulate multiple hidden weapons at once from a distance and launch attacks together. Their methods were varied, unpredictable, and extremely terrifying.

In the original work, Luo Feng possessed the strongest Mental Master talent among Earthlings. Once Luo Feng's physical fitness reached the Mid-level War God level, the dark golden sphere in his mind, which contained an enormous amount of Mental Power, would shatter and be completely absorbed. He would naturally gain Mental Power at the peak High-level War God level, becoming one of the most terrifying beings among War Gods!

And now, through the Sign-in Panel, Wang Yi had likewise obtained the same Mental Power talent as Luo Feng!

Wang Yi's current physical strength had roughly reached the Mid-level Wargod level!

And the strength of Mental Power was determined by the Martial Artist's own physical strength!

Normally, Mental Power was two levels stronger than a Martial Artist's physical strength!

In other words, Wang Yi, whose physical fitness had now reached the Mid-level Wargod level, possessed Mental Power roughly at the Beginner War God level!

At Eighteen Years Old, he possessed Beginner War God-level strength! Moreover, he was a Mental Master, the most terrifying kind of Martial Artist. In terms of true combat power, perhaps even Mid-level War Gods would not be enough to frighten him!

If he launched a sudden attack and caught them off guard, he could even kill a High-level War God!

A War God was already an important figure capable of influencing an entire Base City.

And now, Wang Yi also possessed War God-level strength. Moreover, he was a Mental Master with limitless potential among Martial Artists!

This was the current Wang Yi!

A high school student who had not even graduated yet, yet possessed strength that ordinary people could never imagine in their entire lives!

And as Wang Yi's physical fitness continuously improved, his Mental Power would continuously grow as well.

Furthermore, Mental Power could also help improve physical fitness. Of course, the effect was not as great as Gene Energy's, but it did exist.

Obtaining Mental Power at Luo Feng's home had once again caused Wang Yi's strength to soar, while also giving him a powerful trump card!

However...

The way he looked at Luo Feng became somewhat strange. As expected of the Son of the Plane in this world. Even the shabby house he grew up in can yield such an advanced reward.
