360 Righteous Qi Value. Add all of it to Galloping Horse Strength.
Then Galloping Horse Strength's proficiency would reach 500 points, and his cultivation realm would break through to the Third Realm of Jing Li.
Joy appeared in Qin Fen's eyes. Once his cultivation realm broke through to Smooth Strength, the gap between him and the Martial Arts Students at key schools would shrink considerably. Moreover, the school would teach more profound martial arts.
Galloping Horse Strength was merely a basic External Strength martial art. Even when cultivated to the peak of Peak Perfection, it only reached the Third Realm of Jing Li.
To reach a higher realm, he could only learn more advanced martial arts.
Qin Fen took a deep breath. Tomorrow, when he arrived at school, he could add the Righteous Qi Value to Galloping Horse Strength.
The reason he did not choose to break through now was that after a cultivation realm breakthrough, too much blood and qi would be consumed. His body would need a large amount of nutrition, and every cell in his body would be starving.
There was only ordinary food at home. No matter how much he ate, it probably would not fill him up.
If he broke through at school, he could consume Nutritional Meals containing Spiritual Qi to quickly replenish the blood and qi he had expended.
Nothing happened that night, and dawn arrived in the blink of an eye.
Qin Fen arrived at school early. After eating a Nutritional Meal in the cafeteria, he packed another three and brought them to the training room. With a thought, he summoned the Panel.
Qin Fen: Quasi-Martial Artist Martial Arts: Galloping Horse Strength/Peak Perfection (140/500), Eighteen Falls Upon Touching/Entering the Hall and Reaching the Inner Chamber (35/100), Thunderclap Fist/Entering the Hall and Reaching the Inner Chamber (150/500) Righteous Qi Value: 360
"Use 360 Righteous Qi Value to upgrade Galloping Horse Strength."
With a thought from Qin Fen, all of the Righteous Qi Value was added to Galloping Horse Strength.
The Panel flickered, and the Galloping Horse Strength entry blurred.
At the same time, his mind buzzed. His body trembled, blood and qi surged, and a great amount of blood and qi was rapidly consumed, transforming into jing force that flowed through his body along the circulation route of Galloping Horse Strength, pouring into his limbs and bones.
In that instant, the muscles, skin, membranes, and bones in every part of Qin Fen's body seemed to begin trembling faintly. His muscles continuously compressed, becoming incomparably firm. His tendons and bones grew tougher and tougher, while his strength soared.
Qin Fen felt that his control over jing force had instantly risen to a whole new level.
With a thought, the jing force darted through his body like little mice.
He threw a punch. Jing force surged and gathered on his fist, but at the moment it struck out, he withdrew that force again. His force flowed smoothly, able to be released and retracted at will. This was the mark of reaching the Third Realm of Jing Li, Smooth Strength.
But the next second, Qin Fen felt incomparably weak, as though he did not even have the strength to stand. His body staggered, and he nearly collapsed to the ground. Everything before his eyes blurred.
Qin Fen sat down where he was and slowly adjusted his breathing. After resting for a long time, he finally recovered a little strength.
The area beneath his nose was damp and carried a faint fishy smell.
Qin Fen gently touched his nose and found dark red blood on his hand. When he looked at the back of his hand, it was deathly pale. His head swam, and he desperately wanted to sleep.
"I actually got a nosebleed."
Qin Fen wiped the blood from beneath his nose.
Having taken medical classes, he knew this was a sign of depleted blood and qi.
This made Qin Fen understand that although Righteous Qi Value could increase martial arts proficiency, it did not increase jing force out of thin air. What it consumed was his own blood and qi, nor could it strengthen his muscles, bones, and the like from nothing.
When the increase was small, the sensation was not obvious.
But if the jump was too large all at once, he could clearly feel it.
For example, when he first cultivated jing force, he had consumed quite a bit of blood and qi, leaving him unbearably hungry.
Then there was the time he upgraded Thunderclap Fist at Thunder Spirit Martial Arts Hall. The marrow throughout his body had ached terribly, as if he had cultivated day and night. This time, the upgrade had directly caused a severe depletion of blood and qi.
This also depended on his physical condition. As his strength increased, the greater the increase his body could withstand. Last night, he had raised Galloping Horse Strength by 40 proficiency points, and his body had not felt any discomfort.
The effect of Righteous Qi Value was more like a catalyst. It could accelerate the process of improving martial arts. As long as his nutrition kept up, his cultivation realm could soar like a rocket.
He had been too excited this time and had forgotten that proficiency could not be raised too much at once.
Fortunately, Qin Fen had eaten a Nutritional Meal before the upgrade, leaving quite a bit of energy stored in his body. Otherwise, he might very well have fainted from the severe depletion of blood and qi.
Qin Fen immediately opened the Nutritional Meals he had brought from the cafeteria and wolfed them down.
After devouring all three Nutritional Meals, he immediately directed jing force to his stomach, making it churn and digest with greater force.
Before reaching the Third Realm of Jing Li, Qin Fen had needed massage techniques to digest food. But now that he had reached Smooth Strength, he no longer needed to assume a fighting stance to send jing force to every part of his body. By directing jing force to his abdomen, he could speed up digestion.
Once the food was digested, it immediately transformed into nutrients and seeped into every part of his body.
Then Qin Fen could clearly feel the cells in his body squirming. Every cell was like a starving ghost crawling out of hell, going mad at the sight of food, never satisfied.
The nutrients from the three Nutritional Meals were quickly absorbed by his body. Only then did Qin Fen's complexion gradually recover. His muscles and bones became even firmer, and he seemed to have grown a little taller as well.
Before cultivating jing force, Qin Fen had been somewhat thin.
But after becoming a Quasi-Martial Artist, his body became sturdier by the day. He was no longer thin, but tall and robust. He stood 1.75 meters tall, with yellow skin and firm muscles, overflowing with masculine vigor.
Qin Fen had only turned seventeen after the New Year. He could still grow taller.
Half an hour later, Qin Fen stretched his body. He was completely fine now.
His cultivation had reached the Third Realm of Jing Li. Even if he cultivated normally on his own, there was not the slightest obstruction when releasing force. His jing force could be released and retracted freely, and his strength had also increased greatly. When he gathered the force of his entire body into one punch, its power exceeded seven thousand jin. Moreover, he could deliver that seven-thousand-jin force in battle.
The limit of strength in the Third Realm of Jing Li was ten thousand jin.
If one's strength exceeded ten thousand jin, the jing force produced could be condensed to a certain degree, break through its limits, and leave the body. The basic condition for reaching the realm of External Strength was strength exceeding ten thousand jin.
Qin Fen had only just reached the Third Realm of Jing Li. He was still far from the Fourth Realm.
According to the Martial Arts Bureau's regulations, after reaching the Third Realm of Jing Li, he could apply to learn higher-level martial arts. However, the Freshman Martial Arts Exchange Competition had not yet ended, and Teacher Zhou Wu still had to lead the team, so he had no time to teach Qin Fen new martial arts for the moment.
Qin Fen did not mind waiting another couple of days.
After resting for a while, he began his basic physical training.
At around nine in the morning, a police car drove into the school. Two middle-aged police officers got out and headed to the principal's office on the fourth floor of the Teaching Building.
