After class, Su Li had originally planned to talk to the girl who had been peeking at him and see if he could get her to keep his secret, but she ran off at lightning speed, disappearing the moment class ended.

Left with no choice, Su Li could only temporarily abandon the idea of persuading her to keep it confidential.

Actually, having a big appetite was not necessarily a bad thing. Even if normal people heard about it, they would only think he ate a lot, not that he had eaten so much and was not even half full.

After that, Su Li made several more trips to the cafeteria, only stopping when he suddenly realized that his wallet seemingly could no longer take it.

Before returning to the dorm, Su Li planned to visit Feng Tao first.

Su Li had borrowed Zheng Hongyu's gym card not because he actually intended to work out. He had no interest in that sort of thing, nor did he have that much time.

Su Li remembered Zheng Hongyu mentioning that the gym called Feng Tao had a Force Tester. That was precisely what Su Li was after.

Su Li wanted to see just how strong he was now. Only by knowing the limits of his strength could he control it properly!

Otherwise, what if he accidentally beat someone to death in a fight someday?

Ten minutes later, Su Li left Donghai University, but on the way, he saw something that greatly surprised him.

"Ah, life is this hard already. The world truly is unpredictable!" Su Li could not help sighing as he looked at the two-story building across the street, which was being renovated.

Su Li remembered that this place used to be a fairly popular internet café, yet it had now gone out of business and even had a sign bearing the words "Detective Bureau."

Although Su Li had no idea what the Detective Bureau did, that did not stop him from feeling sentimental.

After all, in the blink of an eye, his standard of living had fallen from moderately comfortable to not being able to eat his fill, while this internet café had gone from thriving to bankrupt. No matter how he looked at it, they seemed to share the same misfortune.

After walking a little farther, Su Li arrived at the fitness club called Feng Tao.

After entering, Su Li kept his eyes straight ahead and headed directly for the Force Tester.

After observing the area around the Force Tester for a while, Su Li found an opening when no one was nearby and walked over.

Boom!

212 kg!

Boom!

487 kg!

"..."

Su Li stared at the reading from his second punch and pondered for a moment. In the end, he did not throw a third punch, because he was afraid that if he kept increasing his strength, the Force Tester would be scrapped.

That was not impossible. After all, when this Force Tester had been designed, no one could have anticipated someone named Su Li coming here to test his strength!

However, those two punches had given Su Li a fairly good grasp of his own power.

For the first punch, he had merely struck casually, yet his strength had already reached over two hundred kilograms, something ordinary people could hardly attain.

For the second punch, he had put in a little effort and used roughly half his strength, yet the result was still astonishing.

Even elementary school students knew that one ton equaled 1,000 kg. In other words, if Su Li went all out, the force of a single punch could probably be measured in tons.

He was practically inhuman!

"I just became a superhuman, and I'm already this ridiculous. This really is the rhythm of me conquering the world!" After muttering to himself, Su Li quickly left.

He had just produced such absurd numbers, and he did not want anyone to notice and block his way here.

As for Zheng Hongyu's fantasies, Su Li could only laugh. More than half the people in a fitness club like this were burly men, and among the remaining women, there were very few above average. Most were accompanied by male companions too. Anyone looking for a romantic encounter here either had explosively good luck or had something wrong with their head!

Su Li considered his luck average and his mind perfectly normal, so he left without the slightest hesitation.

After returning to the dorm, Su Li greeted Zhang Yu, who was still lounging in bed, then lay down under Zhang Yu's stunned gaze.

Ignoring Zhang Yu, Su Li focused his mind. A moment later, his figure appeared in the Virtual Universe once more.

Just as Su Li was about to head to Gorol Star again, he suddenly paused.

Primal Star's cooldown is over?

Feeling the pull of another star, Su Li fell silent.

Three days ago, he had died once on Primal Star and had been unable to enter ever since. He had not expected the cooldown to end today!

Su Li had always been intensely curious about Primal Star. It seemed he could finally go take a look today?

However, that brightly colored little snake from before had left quite a psychological shadow on him, so he was still somewhat hesitant about whether to go.

A moment later—

"Damn it, it's just a snake. I can crush it with one hand!" Thinking of his current strength, Su Li's confidence instantly soared.

"Enter!"

Gritting his teeth, Su Li made his decision.

After a brief dizzy spell, Su Li appeared in a lush forest.

Whoosh!

The next second, a pitch-black shadow shot out from the grass to one side and lunged at Su Li's calf.

Just as the shadow was about to touch Su Li's leg, he suddenly bent down and reached out with his right hand, instantly grabbing its body.

"What the hell is this?"

When Su Li saw what he was holding, his heart skipped a beat.

A beetle the size of an adult's fist, with two rows of sharp teeth in its mouth?

Name: Miasma Beetle Level: Ordinary Traits: Carapace, sharp teeth, delicious Evaluation: A bug with little combat ability, but rather tasty meat

Staring at the Blue Screen that had suddenly appeared before him and the few lines of text on it, Su Li fell into thought. The Blue Screen had this function in the Virtual Universe too? Had he remembered wrong?

"Miasma Beetle, delicious?!"

Su Li was not resistant to the new function that had suddenly appeared, so his attention quickly shifted to the bug in his hand.

Although the Blue Screen's evaluation of the bug was rather ordinary, Su Li knew very well that if he were still the same ordinary person as before, he definitely would not have been able to deal with it so easily.

Its speed was quite fast, and it possessed two rows of sharp teeth that looked fairly formidable!

Yet this disgusting-looking bug was actually rated as delicious. It was simply unimaginable!

"Even if I starved to death, I wouldn't eat this thing!"

After muttering to himself, Su Li exerted a little force with his right hand. In an instant, the struggling bug turned into a pale yellow mixture of solids and liquids.

After dealing with the Miasma Beetle, Su Li finally began examining his surroundings.

Towering trees stretching as far as the eye could see, all kinds of parasitic plants clinging to the trunks, dense patches of weeds taller than a person, and sparse sunlight!

That was everything around Su Li.

"It looks like a primeval forest. Primal Star really lives up to its name, even the environment is this primitive!"

After killing one foolish creature that had tried to challenge him, Su Li's confidence grew another notch. Thus, even though the surroundings were not particularly friendly to someone raised in civilized society, he showed no discomfort.
