Host: Shen Fan Talent: 5 (Mediocre) Lifespan: 36 Martial Path: Savage Bull Fist (Not yet initiated) Realm: None

Shen Fan looked at the Attribute Panel before him, his expression somewhat helpless.

Good heavens, how am I supposed to survive like this!

Shen Fan felt bitter inside. As a transmigrator, he had been in this world for over a month now.

At first, he thought he was dreaming, but after a day, he realized this dream was a bit too real, and he couldn't wake up.

Helpless, Shen Fan had no choice but to accept the reality.

Fortunately, the perks of being a transmigrator were not entirely absent; two days later, Shen Fan awakened this Attribute Panel.

However, after a month of exploration, Shen Fan had yet to discover the panel's function, which left him feeling deeply frustrated.

As a transmigrator, Shen Fan naturally understood that what was displayed on this Attribute Panel were his own attributes.

His talent was a pathetic 5 points; no wonder it was rated as "mediocre." Perhaps it would only be worth looking at once it reached 10 points.

But that was not what made Shen Fan feel the most desperate. What pained him even more was that his lifespan was a mere 36 years!

Since his current body was already 18, this meant Shen Fan had already lived through half his life! That was, of course, assuming no accidents occurred.

Although it was distressing, Shen Fan had no way to solve it for the time being.

Regardless, life had to go on.

Temporarily setting aside the matter of the Attribute Panel, Shen Fan began to properly understand this new world.

The identity Shen Fan transmigrated into was that of an apprentice at the Ox Demon Martial Arts School in Laiyang City.

Speaking of this Ox Demon Martial Arts School, one must touch upon the background of this world.

Even though he was at the very bottom, Shen Fan gradually learned that this was an ancient world where the Martial Path led to divinity!

There were martial powerhouses who could split mountains with a sword and sever rivers with a palm, and this was merely the display of might from the martial experts in this tiny Laiyang City.

Shen Fan was currently in the Great Xia Kingdom. The Great Xia Kingdom had seventy-two provinces, each province had thirty-six prefectures, and under each prefecture were hundreds of large cities and tens of thousands of small ones!

And Laiyang City was nothing more than an inconspicuous small city under the Xuanyang Prefecture of Lanzhou in the Great Xia Kingdom!

One could imagine just how powerful the top-tier combatants of this world truly were.

But these things were undoubtedly too far removed from Shen Fan. He was merely a young apprentice at the Ox Demon Martial Arts School in Laiyang City, and he hadn't even mastered the Savage Bull Fist taught by the school yet!

With such talent, he appeared far too pathetic in this world where the Martial Path flourished and the strong ruled over everything.

And the Attribute Panel, in which Shen Fan had placed high hopes, still had no clear purpose.

This gave Shen Fan the feeling of standing before a mountain of treasure without being able to enter, which was truly maddening.

However, being able to gain a foothold in Laiyang City and join the Ox Demon Martial Arts School to study martial arts meant Shen Fan's fate was actually better than many ordinary people!

This was the only thing Shen Fan found comforting.

"Thump, thump, thump."

"Wake up, everyone! Morning training is starting!"

The shouts of a disciple echoed through the martial school.

Shen Fan immediately opened his eyes, jumped out of bed, put on his clothes, and ran to the plaza to assemble as quickly as he could.

It was currently the hour of the Rabbit, the sun had yet to rise, and the chill in the air was biting.

Yet, not a single person standing in the plaza showed any sign of discomfort; instead, they were calm and collected, as if they were long accustomed to it.

A quarter of an hour later, all the apprentices, numbering about fifty, had gathered in the plaza.

A martial school disciple walked leisurely onto the high platform, looking down at the dozens of people below.

"Alright, morning training begins. Today, I will once again demonstrate the Savage Bull Fist for everyone!"

After saying this, the disciple began to practice the fist technique on his own, ignoring the reactions of those below.

Every move and every stance carried considerable momentum.

Shen Fan followed along and began to practice as well.

Upon entering the martial school, one becomes an apprentice, but not a true disciple. To become a true disciple, one must reach the Minor Accomplishment realm in the Savage Bull Fist!

Although the Savage Bull Fist was a foundational technique, it still required years of persistent effort for an ordinary person to reach Minor Accomplishment.

And once one reached Minor Accomplishment, they could step through the gates of becoming a Martial Artist!

This was what the Master who taught the Savage Bull Fist had said, and Shen Fan had remembered it deeply.

Although Shen Fan had only transmigrated for a little over a month, his predecessor seemed to have been practicing the Savage Bull Fist for a long time, so recently, Shen Fan had felt that he should be on the verge of a breakthrough!

After practicing the Savage Bull Fist once, Shen Fan felt his entire body burning, his Qi and Blood surging abnormally.

The disciple standing on the high platform seemed to notice Shen Fan's unusual reaction as well.

"This kid has been at the Martial Hall for over a year; is he finally about to reach the entry level of the Savage Bull Fist? Such Talent is truly..."

Shaking his head, the disciple turned away to observe the other apprentices.

He simply could not bring himself to care about someone with Shen Fan's level of Talent.

But Shen Fan did not care about what others thought; he was completely immersed in the pleasure of practicing his fist technique, or rather, the joy of an impending breakthrough.

Sensing that his hard work was about to bear fruit, Shen Fan felt a surge of soaring ambition, practicing the Savage Bull Fist over and over again.

Finally, as he practiced, his understanding of the Savage Bull Fist deepened, and his technique became increasingly proficient.

"Hah!"

As he finished this set of the Savage Bull Fist, Shen Fan suddenly felt a strange power surge within his body.

"Is this—Qi and Blood?!!"

Shen Fan was overjoyed; this meant he had taken a massive step forward on the path to becoming a Martial Artist.

Mortals cultivate Martial Arts to generate Qi and Blood, then rely on that Qi and Blood to strengthen their physique. Qi and Blood are the foundation of the Martial Path in this world.

Feeling the faint, warm flow of Qi and Blood nourishing his skin, Shen Fan felt an unprecedented sense of stability.

Just as Shen Fan was rejoicing that his Savage Bull Fist had finally reached the entry level, he suddenly noticed a change in his Attribute Panel:

Host: Shen Fan

Talent: 9 (Mediocre)

Lifespan: 40

Martial Path: Savage Bull Fist (Entry)

Realm: None

His original Talent had suddenly increased to 9 points, and his Lifespan had become 40—both had increased by 4 points. This meant that reaching the entry level of the Savage Bull Fist had boosted both his Talent and his Lifespan!

Thinking of this possibility, Shen Fan's breathing became rapid; he had never expected the Martial Path to bring him such a massive surprise.

Sure enough, with the increase in Talent, Shen Fan felt his mind become much clearer; many points of confusion that he couldn't grasp before were now suddenly illuminated!

Even the Savage Bull Fist he had just mastered improved significantly once more.

The Qi and Blood within his body became slightly more robust and far more agile.

And this was merely the result of a 4-point increase in Talent.

With every practice session, Shen Fan could feel his own progress; compared to before, he felt as if he were flying!

Originally, it would have taken him at least a year or two of hard work to reach Minor Accomplishment in the Savage Bull Fist, but with his Talent nearly doubled, Shen Fan was confident he could achieve it within half a year.

He would bring the Savage Bull Fist to Minor Accomplishment, break through to the Skin Refining stage of the Qi and Blood Great Realm, and become a true Martial Artist!

As for the change in his Lifespan, Shen Fan could not yet feel it, but he trusted the Attribute Panel.
