Heavenly Dao Rewards Diligence

In the year 2125, Earth experienced a resurgence of spiritual energy. As Fierce Beasts and Alien Races invaded, the Human Race rose up to resist them through the path of martial arts!

After the arduous establishment of the Base Cities system, the Human Race saw a succession of talents emerge, constantly waging wars and expanding their reach!

Ten thousand years have passed!

Today, the Human Race is capable of exploring the universe!

They have occupied vast territories across the cosmos!

Galaxies are like clouds, and constellations are like the sea!

Yet, even so!

The Human Race has currently explored no more than ten percent of the universe! As the Human Race grew stronger, they even discovered higher-order civilizations and the ruins of Gods and Devils deep within the Starry Sky.

Within the territory of the Human Race Alliance!

On a planet named Dragon Star!

In the courtyard of a detached house in Rongguang City, a seventeen-year-old Youth with delicate features, black eyes, and black hair was sweating profusely as he continuously shifted his posture!

What he was practicing!

Was the Nine Revolutions Stance Skill, the most suitable foundation-building technique perfected by the Human Race over ten thousand years!

After several minutes!

As the Youth took a deep breath and completed a full cycle of the practice!

A screen, visible only to him, appeared before his eyes!

[Ding, completed one cycle of "Nine Revolutions Stance Skill"]

[Proficiency +1]

[Nine Revolutions Stance Skill Minor Accomplishment · Fifth Revolution (89/100)]

[Proficiency: Entry, Minor Accomplishment, Major Accomplishment, Perfection!]

Jiang Hao looked at the interface before him, a look of wild joy gradually spreading across his face: "It's real, it's actually real, I really have a system!"

Jiang Hao!

He had transmigrated into this world seventeen years ago!

Upon realizing he had arrived in this magnificent high-martial world, Jiang Hao had been filled with anticipation!

Unfortunately!

When he entered school at twelve to practice martial arts and had his Martial Bone measured, reality dealt him a heavy blow!

Because his Martial Bone was only: Dust Grade!

The Martial Bone represents talent, categorized into: Blazing Sun, Radiant Sun, Bright Moon, Sun-level, Moon-level, Star Grade, and Dust Grade!

Jiang Hao was miserable!

He was at the lowest Dust Grade!

Or rather, this was the standard Martial Bone for ordinary civilians; those slightly better might reach Star Grade at most, while Moon-level was one in ten thousand!

As for the higher levels like Sun-level, Bright Moon, and Radiant Sun, they only ever appeared among the great clans and top-tier factions!

Therefore, since enrolling, Jiang Hao had performed mediocrely, appearing as unremarkable as any ordinary person, and it was expected he would live out a plain life!

Even though Jiang Hao was diligent!

It couldn't make up for much!

He was now seventeen, with only seven or eight months left until the Martial Arts Exam at eighteen. To enter even the most basic Martial Arts University, one needed a minimum Blood Qi Intensity of 10!

Jiang Hao's current Blood Qi Intensity was 7.8; he was still far from the required 10!

In seven or eight months!

At Jiang Hao's current rate of improvement, he would reach 8.3 or 8.5 at most!

Unless he consumed various high-value Nutrient Solution or awakened a Supernatural Ability, there was no other possibility!

But all of this!

Had been completely rewritten ten minutes ago!

Because ten minutes ago, Jiang Hao had awakened a [Heavenly Dao Rewards Diligence] system. Just as the name suggested, as long as you were willing to grind, it would provide you with feedback!

Jiang Hao had initially thought his eyes were playing tricks on him!

So he had given it a try!

The result was actually real!

Jiang Hao clenched his fists, suppressing the excitement in his heart, his eyes burning as he stared at the interface before him: "According to the system display, I am only 11 cycles away from completing the fifth revolution of the Nine Revolutions Stance Skill. This matches my own feeling!"

"Fifth Revolution Perfection!"

"This will further increase the efficiency of tempering my Physical Body!"

"Previously, I gained 0.1 Blood Qi per month. Once I reach the perfection of the fifth revolution and enter the sixth, I should be able to cut that time by at least half!"

"Doesn't that feel just right?"

Jiang Hao said, already unable to wait to continue his Stance Training!

Immediately after!

[Ding, completed one practice session of "Nine Revolutions Stance Skill Minor Accomplishment · Fifth Revolution"]

[Stance Training Proficiency +1]

[Ding, completed one practice session of "Nine Revolutions Stance Skill Minor Accomplishment · Fifth Revolution"]

[Stance Training Proficiency +1]

After the fourth time!

Jiang Hao felt his body was completely drained, so he had no choice but to stop!

With his current physique, practicing the Nine Revolutions Stance Skill · Fifth Revolution four times pushed his muscles and Meridians to their absolute limit!

Continuing to train further would do more harm than good!

And to increase the number of training sessions!

He would need to consume expensive Nutrient Solution or rare treasures capable of nourishing and repairing his Meridians!

Of course!

Jiang Hao did not have the means for that!

Furthermore!

Jiang Hao had tried it in the middle; if his training posture was not standard, then Heavenly Dao Rewards Diligence would not count the proficiency, so every single practice session had to be performed with the correct method!

However, even though Jiang Hao was exhausted, his eyes were shining brightly!

Having lived in this vast world for seventeen years as an unremarkable, unknown person, he finally had something to look forward to!

After practicing the Nine Revolutions Stance Skill four times!

His Stance Training Proficiency had reached

[Nine Revolutions Stance Skill Minor Accomplishment · Fifth Revolution (93/100)]

!

Only seven more times to go!

At most, two days!

The Nine Revolutions Stance Skill would break through to the sixth revolution!

And thus enter the stage of Great Accomplishment!

While Jiang Hao was resting, a woman's voice suddenly drifted from inside the house!

"Xiao Hao, are you done training? I've drawn your bathwater. Go wash up and rest early, don't overwork yourself!"

The one speaking was Jiang Hao's mother in this world, Shen Man!

In this world, other than his poor natural talent, Jiang Hao had no regrets!

His parents were both alive!

And he had a younger sister!

His family life was happy; although they weren't wealthy, they earned what they worked for and had some small savings!

"Coming!"

Jiang Hao performed a carp kip to spring up from the ground, brushed the weeds off his body, and walked toward the house!

Entering the house!

The warm family decor came into view. The living room connected to the courtyard, with a coffee table in the center, a television on one side, and a sofa on the other!

Sitting on the sofa were two people!

Jiang Hao's father, Jiang Chuanning, who looked to be in his forties!

And his fourteen-year-old sister, Jiang Keke, with her fair skin, delicate, pure face, and an Aura of youth radiating from her entire being!

"Ge, you're blocking my view of the TV. Move, move! The Interstellar Mecha show is at the best part!" Seeing Jiang Hao standing motionless in front of her, Jiang Keke hurriedly waved her small hands, urging him to get out of the way!

Jiang Chuanning, who was reading a newspaper nearby, heard Jiang Keke's words, glanced at her, and huffed: "What's wrong with him blocking you for a second? You've been watching since dinner; you should learn from your Ge instead of wasting your talent!"

Jiang Keke was Jiang Hao's younger sister!

And she possessed remarkable natural talent!

She was the Star-grade Martial Bone mentioned earlier and was currently in the Key Class at Jiang Hao's Martial Arts Middle School!

Hearing Jiang Chuanning's words, Jiang Hao smiled: "Dad, Keke works hard enough training at school; it's good to balance work and rest!"

After Jiang Hao finished speaking!

He said to Jiang Keke!

"Your Ge is going to take a bath first, it'll be your turn in a bit!"

"Got it, got it!"

Jiang Keke nodded, her Beautiful Eyes fixed unblinkingly on the holographic television!

Jiang Chuanning rolled his eyes at Jiang Hao, lowered his head to his newspaper, and said speechlessly, "You and your Mom just spoil her rotten; sooner or later, she'll be completely lawless!"

Jiang Hao knew Jiang Keke's personality; she was still very well-behaved when out in public!

It was only around people she knew well that she would let her guard down a little!

Walking over to the laundry area, Jiang Hao took down the dried clothes and was just about to head to the bathroom when Shen Man suddenly appeared before him!

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Looking at Shen Man blocking his path, Jiang Hao asked in confusion!

Shen Man smiled slightly, then produced a bank card and handed it to Jiang Hao: "Our family isn't exactly wealthy, but your Dad and I discussed it last night. Take this; you have the Martial Arts Exam in seven or eight months, so put in a good final sprint. Consider it a way to ensure you have no regrets!"
