Gained a Brand New Entry!

"That guy just now... she shouldn't actually like me."

Stepping out of the Treasure Pavilion, Ye Li paced slowly, pondering this question in his mind.

Although he prided himself on being dashing and handsome, that young girl was no slouch herself.

Thanks to the powerful genes everyone possessed in this martial arts world, the gap between the upper and lower limits of male and female appearances was vast.

In this world, any random girl with decent looks could easily crush the celebrities of his previous life.

They could even go toe-to-toe with 2D anime beauties, effortlessly reaping the adoration of a whole crowd of simps.

Given the girl's beauty, which belonged to the pinnacle of this world, it was clearly impossible for her to like him based on looks alone.

There is no love without a reason in this world, and Ye Li was contemplating the cause behind the change in her attitude.

If there was anything about him currently worth a second look, aside from his appearance, it was only his Traits.

Thinking of the subtle changes in her attitude and the way she addressed him, Ye Li frowned, using his World-Shocking Wisdom to reach an accurate conclusion:

"This guy was definitely captured by my looks!"

"It's a pity I'm Xiao Yan, but she couldn't possibly be my Ya Fei; at the very least, a mere 30 taels of silver isn't enough to buy the position of the female lead!"

It seemed the effects of the Dragon Tiger Pill hadn't completely worn off, or perhaps he had been eroded by Heaven's Will.

This left Ye Li still immersed in the suppression of his urges, thinking with his "little head" in a way that was truly hopeless.

After all, it was one thing to complain about "god-tier" people on the internet, but in reality, who could bear to reject a "god-tier" person like Ye Li?

Soon, he stopped fretting over it and headed home, clutching his cultivation resources.

Over the next two days, Ye Li witnessed the core disciples being tortured to the point of wishing for death by the Dragon Tiger Pill.

The effect of the Dragon Tiger Pill was truly potent; he didn't know what ingredients were mixed into it.

Once the pill was swallowed, everyone acted as if they were brainwashed, falling into a state of extreme suppressed urges.

And he, though it was very difficult...

He managed to keep his underwear dry throughout!!!

Outside of his cultivation, the ten shops he managed on Yunjin Street remained stable over these few days.

Occasional disturbances were easily settled by the ordinary disciples, so they didn't bother him, allowing Ye Li to devote himself entirely to cultivation.

Body Tempering Initial Stage (130/1833)

"Azure Dragon Force (1950/100)"

Body Tempering Initial Stage (178/1832)

"Azure Dragon Force (1982/100)"

A mere three days passed, and in the dead of night, Ye Li's figure danced continuously along with the Azure Dragon Force.

Starting from the early hours, the urge to practice martial arts drove Ye Li to cultivate with all his might.

It was as if he had entered a flow state, ignoring external objects and immersing his entire being into the technique.

Every moment, a stream of information followed the [World-Shocking Wisdom], pouring into his mind and helping him realize how to cultivate the next step of the Azure Dragon Force.

The longer Ye Li delved into this technique, the more he could feel the flaws of the original Azure Dragon Force.

Compared to the original version's limitation of only being able to mobilize 550 muscles.

Once the experience of Azure Dragon Force was pushed past 1000 points, Ye Li could mobilize his entire body's muscles to work in unison when he activated the technique.

As he channeled his energy, his blood and muscles surged together, making his entire body feel as if it were boiling.

However, 1000 points was still not the limit of this technique.

Because with every push, the World-Shocking Wisdom would continue to flood his mind with memories like a great river, guiding him on how to correct the flaws in the technique.

This change brought Ye Li to a realization: the Trait divided the cultivation of the technique into three stages!

Before 100 experience points, [World-Shocking Wisdom] guided him on how to practice the technique.

Before 1000 experience points, the Trait was modifying the underlying code of the technique to adapt it for human cultivation!

And after 1000 experience points, it was modifying this technique to be the one most perfectly suited for "Ye Li" himself to cultivate!

After 1000 points, Azure Dragon Force became a technique belonging exclusively to Ye Li.

A unique technique tailored specifically for his physique, tendons, bones, muscles, and blood.

Every time he performed the technique, he could feel his muscles like steel wires, correcting the framework of his bones and sculpting his physique into the most perfect form.

In simple terms, it was the sublimation of [Ye Li] into [Perfect Ye Li]!

Deep within the courtyard, he had completely forgotten the time, casting aside all external matters and pouring his heart and soul into his cultivation.

"Azure Dragon Force (1982/100)"... 1984/100... 1994/100... 1999/100

Three hours passed, and Ye Li repeatedly circulated the latest version of the Azure Dragon Force, pushing the experience bar of this technique infinitely close to the 20x threshold.

At this moment, countless memories swirled in Ye Li's mind, as if gathering for a final surge!

When the final iteration of the Azure Dragon Force was completed, the experience bar reached the 20x perfection mark!

In an instant, it was as if a qualitative transformation had been completed.

Countless pieces of information regarding the Azure Dragon Force began to intertwine.

They were then seized by Dazzling: World-Shocking Wisdom and instantly refined into pure concepts!

Ye Li felt his blood boiling, his skin radiating intense heat, and the sweat evaporating into white steam the moment it touched the air.

"Hoo~"

Accompanied by scorching hot air escaping from his facial orifices, he looked as if he were exhaling clouds and mist.

Ye Li felt as though his body had been reborn, undergoing a complete reconstruction!

Standing silently in place, Ye Li savored the sensation, only opening his eyes after a long while.

But what he saw made him freeze:

Name: Ye Li

Realm: Body Tempering Initial Stage (183/1500)

Techniques:

"Azure Dragon Force · Perfect"?1

"Nine Chapters Fist Manual (3/500)"

Traits: [Dazzling: World-Shocking Wisdom]

Description:

"You have cultivated the Azure Dragon Force to perfect compatibility; realm experience cap -331"

"Cultivating a technique to perfection unlocks a specialized trait enhancement?1"

"This..." Ye Li looked at the content displayed on the panel, moved.

He hadn't expected that cultivating a technique to perfection would have such an effect.

And to think it could actually add traits?

Perhaps Ye Li was ill-informed, but in his life thus far, he had never heard of anyone being able to add traits.

Everyone's traits were unique, yet Ye Li could trigger new ones by cultivating techniques to perfection.

Just this point alone made it no wonder that the quality of his own trait was of a Dazzling grade, one never before described.

Stunned, he fixed his gaze on the Azure Dragon Force marked with a question mark on the panel.

After focusing his will upon it, three options flickering with green light projected before Ye Li.

[Green · Brute Force]: Physical strength bonus 40%

[Green · Thick Armor]: Body defense bonus 25%

[Green · Swiftness]: When focusing, speed increased by 15%

The three traits were not complex, representing the three categories of strength, defense, and speed respectively.

The known green traits numbered in the thousands, covering all sorts of types.

Luck, physique, talent, concepts, professions...

The variety of traits could cover almost every aspect of life; it was only because Ye Li had joined a gang that he had encountered those leaning toward martial combat.

And among these countless traits, he had awakened exactly these three related to combat: strength, defense, and physique.

Therefore, based on the description in the notes, Ye Li guessed that because the effect of the Azure Dragon Force was to enhance physique, that was why such traits had awakened.

In other words, if he were to cultivate techniques with other effects to their limit in the future.

For example, if he were to cultivate that "Essence Locking Technique" belonging to the girl in the apricot-yellow dress who had a crush on him to perfection.

Would he then be able to awaken "virility" related traits?
