You Have a Misunderstanding About Me

Over the next few days.

Li Jinshui transformed into a bottomless pit, following a strict nutritional regimen every morning and seeking out Old Huang for lessons every afternoon.

Huang Lichen's curriculum covered more than just martial arts techniques; he also imparted the operational methods for new delivery stations, including the personal experience he had gained back when he was a delivery driver himself.

Li Jinshui maintained an appearance of being hungry for knowledge, listening with rapt attention throughout, which left the veteran instructor Huang Lichen deeply gratified and exclaiming that the boy was truly teachable.

However, Huang Lichen had no idea that Li Jinshui had absolutely no intention of independently running a station, nor did he want to become a station manager to deal with the conflicts involving Weihu Security Company.

Without reaching the Martial Saint stage, how could one possibly go head-to-head with the enemy?

Soon, five days flashed by in the blink of an eye.

Li Jinshui had successfully consumed all of his two-month supply of nutritional resources.

[Basic Stance Technique (Proficient 550/1000)]

The progress of his stance technique was already past the halfway mark; the realm of Great Success was just around the corner!

It's time to go have a heart-to-heart with Old Huang!

Li Jinshui rose at the crack of dawn, rolled out of bed, and headed straight for the 52nd floor without even brushing his teeth.

At this moment, Huang Lichen was still in Hall No. 1 teaching a class of Grade B students.

Ten days had already passed in the second month of the Youth Training Camp, and these miserable students were still struggling to grasp the knack of wrapping their Blood Qi in electricity, each of them grimacing and wailing as they were shocked.

"Whoosh!"

Li Jinshui activated the battery on his legs and charged in, stepping with the Lightning Pulse Step.

He restrained much of his Blood Qi, displaying only an entry-level degree of power, but it still drew envious and admiring gazes from many of the students.

"The monitor is here!"

"Haven't seen him in a few days, the monitor looks even sharper!"

"My god, how does his Lightning Pulse Step look even more practiced? Could he have already reached the Proficient level?"

"Are you crazy? The monitor only reached the entry level at the end of last month; how could he have reached proficiency so quickly?"

The students stopped what they were doing, whispering to one another as compliments rose and fell in waves.

Huang Lichen, having his lecture interrupted, glared at Li Jinshui with annoyance and frowned, "Didn't I say your lessons were scheduled for the afternoon? Why are you running over here first thing in the morning to show off your martial arts?"

"Show off? I was just walking normally."

Li Jinshui looked genuinely innocent, walked up to Huang Lichen, and lowered his voice, "Old Huang, I have a secret I want to tell you. It's urgent."

"Hmm?"

Huang Lichen's interest was immediately piqued.

He loved hearing secrets, especially after the secret of that 503 Blood Qi value ten days ago.

"Don't tell me you've..."

"That's right." Li Jinshui nodded.

"Good, good, good! Awesome!" Huang Lichen was overjoyed, clapping his hands repeatedly, "Go wait for me in the testing room. I'll be right there. This time, I have to notify them to watch it live!"

As he spoke, he couldn't wait to pull out his phone and make a call.

Li Jinshui couldn't be bothered to wait around, so he shoved his hands into his pockets and turned to head downstairs.

He walked into the testing room and stepped up to the Blood Qi Tester.

Li Jinshui rolled his neck, stretched his limbs, and began to adjust his breathing.

Last time he hid his strength, he had used seventy percent of his Blood Qi and kept thirty percent in reserve.

This time, he only mobilized thirty percent of the Blood Qi in his body, keeping seventy percent in reserve.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Soon, his rapid punches and kicks turned into a blur of afterimages, all landing squarely on the Force Testing Target.

The screen flickered, displaying the test results.

[Blood Qi Value: 511]

"Not bad!"

Li Jinshui nodded faintly.

Using only thirty percent of his Blood Qi power to hit a value of 511 meant that if he went all out, his Blood Qi value would already exceed 1700.

He compared it to the Value Comparison Chart on the side.

[501-1000: Second-rate Martial Artist]

[1001 and above: First-rate Martial Artist]

Very good, his true Blood Qi value was already far beyond the standard for a First-rate Martial Artist.

"Sigh, it's a pity that this is just a standard protagonist template; it's still not powerful enough. If I had more resources, I would have ascended in a day and shattered planets with my fists long ago."

Li Jinshui sighed, maintaining a humble mindset as he continued to encourage himself.

"Ashui, Ashui, how is it? Can this blood-qi value..."

At this moment, the boisterous voice of Huang Lichen came from outside the door.

Li Jinshui turned his head to look, only to see Old Huang with a face full of joy and anticipation, followed by Ye Mei, Zhang Li, and Chen Yu from the Intelligence Department. The four big shots had gathered once again, walking quickly into the testing room.

However, when Huang Lichen saw the value on the blood-qi tester, the smile on his face instantly stiffened.

"Uh, 511?"

The wrinkles on Old Huang's face sagged, and the corners of his eyes twitched uncontrollably: "It was already at 503 ten days ago. Now it's reached 511. Although there is progress, you call this a secret?"

"Battalion Commander Huang, this progress is already quite good. Don't put too much pressure on the young man."

The elderly Zhang Li spoke with a smile: "Don't forget, we originally only intended for him to reach the level of a Second-rate Martial Artist within two months. Although he entered the basic second-rate level earlier, as long as he completes the transition to the Ninth Grade Stake Standing within two months, it will be fine."

She was quite satisfied with Li Jinshui's progress.

Ten days ago, when they learned that Li Jinshui's blood-qi value had exceeded five hundred, they were all startled; after all, this was the standard for a Second-rate Martial Artist.

Of course, that was only the basic second-rate level.

At this time, switching to train the Ninth Grade Stake Standing would consume more time and resources than it would have at the third-rate level, but at least having the guaranteed strength of a second-rate martial artist was considered good news.

Therefore, they had unanimously agreed to change his regimen to one catty of food supplements per day.

Now that Li Jinshui's blood-qi value had increased from 503 to 511, it indicated that the transition of the Ninth Grade Stake Standing was proceeding smoothly, and there was a high hope of him becoming a "Ninth Grade Second-rate" martial artist after two months.

"But having said that..."

Zhang Li suddenly changed the subject, her eyes narrowing slightly: "Li Jinshui, although we all agreed to let you decide how to use your resources, I heard that you withdrew all sixty catties of E-Class Exotic Beast Meat in just ten days, and it was all cooked meat. May I ask what exactly you are doing?"

The others clearly already knew about this, and their gazes were now fixed on Li Jinshui.

At first, they suspected that this kid might have resold the E-Class Exotic Beast Meat to cash out, but subsequent investigations revealed that he had taken all the meat into his room and never brought it out again, nor did he have any financial dealings with others, which was why they hadn't intervened.

But now, with two months' worth of food supplement resources bottoming out in ten days, they simply couldn't suppress their curiosity and confusion.

"Li Jinshui, after E-Class Exotic Beast Meat is cooked, it is not suitable for long-term storage; it is very easy for the energy to dissipate..." Ye Mei frowned, offering a reminder.

"Rest assured, I didn't take it back to store it."

Li Jinshui shook his head, interrupting her: "I just ate it all by my own ability."

"???"

The four people present widened their eyes in shock.

Are you kidding?

Ate it all?

Sixty catties of E-Class Exotic Beast Meat in ten days?

"Also, you might have a slight misunderstanding about me..."

Li Jinshui walked back to the blood-qi tester, slowly rolling up the sleeves of his training suit, a hint of arrogant coldness curling the corners of his mouth: "A blood-qi value of 511 is not my full strength."

BOOM--!

The moment his words fell, he struck out rapidly, his fists and feet turning into a blur of afterimages, slamming into the Force Testing Target with overwhelming force.

This time, he utilized forty percent of his blood-qi power.

The display screen on the tester flickered once more.

[Blood-qi value: 681]

Swish!

In an instant, the testing room fell into a dead silence, not a sound to be heard!
