Training

Three days later!

At the edge of the training grounds, Old Green stood beside Green. A gentle breeze brushed past them, while the midsummer sun caused beads of sweat to appear on Green's forehead.

Old Green, on the other hand, showed no change in complexion whatsoever.

Since Green had been constantly occupied with entering knowledge, his dark circles showed no sign of fading.

When Old Green returned from buying supplies that day, he discovered that something was wrong with Green's condition. He immediately forcefully ordered Green to rest and forbade him from beginning his training.

Thus, after finishing recording the knowledge, Green rested continuously for two days before finally recovering more or less completely.

Taking advantage of this time, Old Green also set up two simple training grounds beside the two-story wooden house.

One was an open space for swordsmanship training, furnished with all sorts of humanoid wooden stakes.

The other was an open space for archery training, furnished with all sorts of targets.

Both of these simple training grounds had been made entirely by Old Green alone. Green had originally wanted to help, but Old Green had firmly refused.

Under Old Green's meticulous work, the soil of both training grounds was completely leveled, with hardly any depressions or raised spots to be seen.

Even from this little detail, one could tell how much Old Green cared about Green.

Now, standing beside Green, Old Green looked at him.

"Green, once training begins, you absolutely cannot give up halfway. Are you ready?"

Green nodded, his eyes filled with an indescribable determination.

"Good! Next, we'll begin with the most ordinary training!"

"There's no need to rush swordsmanship and archery. Those skills are built up over time. Training the body is the most important thing. Through proper training, reaching the peak of physical condition sooner will be far more beneficial to your growth!"

As Old Green spoke, he pointed toward the path on the ground.

"Start running. This is the fastest way to improve your physical strength and endurance!"

Beneath an endless blue sky, scorching sunlight poured over the earth, and waves of heat filled the air.

Yet under such conditions, a figure ran beneath the blazing sun, torrents of sweat pouring ceaselessly from his body.

That figure was naturally Green.

Ever since he had begun training, Green had applied the scientific training methods from his previous life to this world.

At first, Old Green could still offer some guidance based on his experience.

But as the Chip conducted logical deductions based on the knowledge Green provided, the extremely perfected training methods made Old Green feel that he had fallen behind the times.

Before long, Old Green stopped interfering with Green's training and let him train on his own.

"Ha... inhale... ha... inhale..."

Steady breathing came from Green's mouth.

Green's eyes remained fixed ahead. Even while running beneath the scorching sun, his face showed no trace of pain.

After several weeks of training, he had already reached the level of the world's top athletes.

The upper limit of humanity in this world seemed to be higher than in his previous life.

After noticing this, Green also began increasing the intensity of his training, intentionally or otherwise, according to his own condition.

However, he did not raise it too much, lest he cause various minor hidden injuries and affect his potential.

[Ding! Completed a 40-kilometer cross-country run. Physical strength increased by 0.1.]

Hearing the Chip's voice ring out in his mind, the corners of Green's mouth curled into a faint smile.

"Chip, display my current attributes!"

[Ding! Displaying host attributes.]

[Green]

[Strength: 0.9] (Muscle strength, explosive power)

[Speed: 0.9] (Movement speed, agile reaction)

[Constitution: 1] (Recovery ability, tolerance to stimulation)

Looking at the data on the Chip's interface, Green could not help but feel secretly delighted.

This was an attribute interface he had calculated using functions, based on the data Old Green had mentioned and his own physical condition.

Once all attributes reached 1, he would be no different from an adult in this world.

Thanks to the superior living conditions Old Green provided, Green's original body had already been stronger than the average individual. After training, his progress became even more rapid.

All sorts of physical exercises began to be repeated constantly.

Under Old Green's supervision, his physical training gradually expanded.

Green also began trying technical exercises such as horseback riding and throwing. Although he had not spent long on them, he had already laid a solid foundation.

Moreover, during training, the Chip could provide timely assistance, allowing every session to achieve an exceptionally excellent result.

Besides this, Green also discovered that ever since he had begun training, more and more people had started approaching Old Green.

The baron's family members living in the castle, as well as the wives of various guards' captains, often brought all sorts of gifts when they came to contact Old Green.

As for why this was happening, Green naturally understood it perfectly.

In this world possessing supernatural power, his actions were undoubtedly announcing that he was stepping into that realm.

Most importantly, Old Green's existence meant Green did not have to spend much effort thinking about anything. He only needed to accept the inheritance along the way.

Sometimes, while training, he could see envy in the eyes of the baron's fortress guards and ordinary commoners.

Throughout the training process, he did not suffer much disturbance.

Old Green directly intercepted all outside interference.

Green was more than happy to enjoy the peace and quiet.

Not having to waste time dealing with nobles was naturally the best arrangement.

Later on, Old Green began teaching Green the two practical combat skills of swordsmanship and archery.

With the Chip's assistance, Green's swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds.

Every time he swung his sword, the Chip could point out his mistakes and correct his method of exerting force from the root.

Green applied the basic techniques summarized by the Chip to perfection.

At the same level of technical skill, even Old Green believed that there was no one more outstanding than Green.

Even if Green could not learn the Breathing Method, his exquisite swordsmanship alone would be enough to make him an excellent guard captain.

During this process, Green also collected Old Green's data.

[Old Green]

[Strength: 1.7]

[Speed: 2.0]

[Constitution: 0.7~1.5]

[Special Status: Hidden injuries. His normal constitution remains at 0.7, but can reach 1.5 in battle. Prolonged combat will permanently damage his constitution!]

The first time he saw Old Green's data, Green could not help but draw in a sharp breath.

With such completely crushing statistics, Old Green could easily overwhelm him through sheer brute force alone.

Twice the data did not mean merely twice the attributes. Under the combined influence of all sorts of attributes, Old Green's actual performance was more than three or four times stronger than his.

After witnessing the marvels of the Breathing Method, Green could not help but yearn for it even more.

Old Green had not even mastered it and was still suffering from special injuries, yet he already possessed such formidable strength.

How powerful, then, would a true knight be after mastering it?

After seeing his own insignificance, the restless feelings in Green's heart gradually settled down, and he continued training quietly.

After swordsmanship, Green displayed a terrifying talent in archery, one that was frightening to an extreme degree.

The Chip's existence was equivalent to Green cheating outright.

The Chip continuously collected data on his muscle condition and his arrows. To put it simply, it was like having an aimbot.

Even though he had only studied archery for two or three short days, Green's accuracy had already reached a shocking level.

Ranged troops had always been noble. The arrow's ability to pierce a surface through a single point meant that Green was already capable of threatening Old Green.

After this news was exposed, even more people began approaching Old Green.

Even Green occasionally had to spare some energy to help Old Green deal with these visitors.
