The Kryptonian Who Couldn't Cultivate Ki

"These are just ordinary ingredients, but after being roasted with Ki, they're so delicious. If you don't have anything to do in the future, you could actually open a barbecue shop. It would help ease the family's financial pressure…" Clark said softly as he watched Robet in the final stages of cooking.

"Jonathan is already suggesting we take out a loan to buy a new farm, or perhaps have you enter an eating contest to see if you can win a prize."

Even though Clark was already far from home when Jonathan spoke to Martha, his hearing was perfectly clear enough to catch their conversation. Clark didn't have any objections to Jonathan's two suggestions.

After all, as far as Clark was concerned, as long as the two farms weren't on opposite ends of the world, tidying up one more farm would be a simple matter.

As for the eating contest, after witnessing Robet's appetite, Clark didn't believe anyone could be Robet's opponent. Forget ordinary Earthlings; even unremarkable aliens wouldn't stand a chance!

"Burp!" Robet swallowed the last bite of grilled meat and let out a satisfied burp. His eyes lit up as he looked at Clark and asked, "Eating contest?! Is it a competition to see who can eat more?"

Robet: (☆▽☆)

"It seems you don't mind this sort of thing…" Clark's mouth twitched slightly as he saw Robet's excited expression. He then smiled helplessly, unable to tell whether Robet preferred eating or fighting more at the moment.

Clark didn't know that Robet would have definitely preferred fighting originally. For Robet, food was still a case of "nice to have, but not essential."

However, Robet now possessed Saiyan blood, which not only amplified his warlike nature but also made delicacies, which hadn't been that important before, into something he cherished.

This was because Robet's genes told him he could no longer go hungry.

"Why would I dislike something delicious? Besides, eating a big meal outside not only satisfies my stomach but also brings in revenue for the household. What's not to like?" Robet said with a smile, wiping his mouth, and added with some anticipation, "Honestly, I can't wait to participate in that eating contest!"

"It should be this weekend. We'll know after we get back and talk with Jonathan and the others." Clark recalled for a moment, then looked at Robet with some anticipation. "What's this Ki of yours all about? Can you teach me?"

"Of course!" Robet looked back at Clark with equal anticipation. Honestly, before Clark had even started training Ki, his body had already reached such a formidable level. Robet couldn't imagine how much he would improve if he truly cultivated Ki.

Robet had seen the fastest and most significant power-ups, from weak to strong. It was Broly, that cheater who controlled Great Ape Power in his humanoid form. He went from being far inferior to the Z Fighters to being able to clash with Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta, all within the span of a single battle!

And that was Gogeta, mind you, the Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta, who was also known as the invincible Vegito and the strongest Gogeta across dimensions!

That battle even shattered the dimensions of the real universe, showing just how monstrous their combat power was!

Robet felt that if Clark mastered Ki, his improvement wouldn't be that drastic, but it might be comparable to the gap between his normal state and Super Saiyan.

After all, Clark's body was sufficiently powerful. Such a strong body meant he could condense even more potent Ki. The strength of Ki and the body were mutually reinforcing.

"Come! Follow my guidance…" Thinking this, Robet looked at Clark with great anticipation and began to explain the mysteries of Ki, trying to guide Clark to channel this power that had always coexisted with his body.

With a "hiss," just as Clark was following Robet's instructions step by step, his eyes suddenly turned red. Immediately after, a beam of red Heat Vision shot uncontrollably from Clark's eyes, just like when he dealt with the Kamehameha Wave before.

It was fortunate that Robet was alert and reacted quickly. He dodged the Heat Vision immediately and wasn't injured. Even so, Robet looked at Clark with lingering fear, as this beam of Heat Vision was even more powerful than the previous one, leaving a bottomless crack in the ground.

Robet: ┌(.Д.)┐

"Robet, are you alright?!" Clark retracted his Heat Vision with lingering fear and asked Robet with concern.

"Did it succeed? It doesn't look like it!" Robet ignored the crack on the ground and instead examined Clark with some confusion, muttering to himself.

For Robet, shooting beams from his eyes wasn't anything unusual. Earthlings and Saiyans didn't have such techniques, but many aliens could use their eyes to launch beams to surprise opponents.

Even on Earth, there were experts in this regard, such as King Piccolo, Piccolo Jr., and Tien Shinhan; they could all unleash eye beams, firing light from their eyes to attack others.

However, this was the first time Robet had seen someone who could only shoot light from their eyes. After all, those with similar abilities who liked to attack from their mouths…

These techniques didn't require much skill. It was just that the eyes and mouths of Earthlings and Saiyans weren't special. Circulating Ki to these areas and releasing it wouldn't result in much power and would easily affect their combat. Thus, only aliens with peculiar appearances typically used such techniques… cough, not that only monsters used this move.

"I don't know. I did as you said, and then I felt a power inside me release through my eyes. It doesn't seem any different from releasing a laser before…" Hearing Robet's muttering, Clark said hesitantly.

"Hmm, you have a unique energy of your own within you. You can't fully control it yet, but its existence also prevents you from cultivating Ki…" Robet observed carefully and then nodded in understanding before analyzing.

"Furthermore, this power manifests differently from Ki. It doesn't have as many uses as Ki, but it seems to have replaced Ki's original function and status. It's a special energy that can strengthen your body, and it can also be released through your eyes!"

"Next, we need to figure out where this energy comes from and whether it can become stronger with your training. If it can, then this energy is actually no different from Ki…"

Yesterday, with over 300 collections, after a humble and awkward period of hesitation, I finally found the editor and got the contract signed (Д`)
