Dragon Tiger Body Tempering
The system was very user-friendly. After buying a technique, he could practice it himself or spend Wolf Warrior Coins to learn it instantly.
But learning it that way cost far too much. Merely reaching the beginner stage of the movement technique Gale, which cost 30,000, also cost 30,000-the same as the technique itself.
To reach minor mastery, he would need another 60,000. That didn't mean 60,000 in total, nor was it the sum of all the costs.
That was the price for each stage, and each was charged separately.
For example, buying the movement technique and learning it to minor mastery would cost 30,000 plus 30,000 plus 60,000, for a total of 120,000 Wolf Warrior Coins. Perfection cost even more: Gale required 480,000.
The Wolf Fang Fist, which cost 40,000, was even more expensive. Learning it to perfection would cost 640,000 Wolf Warrior Coins.
But the temptation of instantly going from beginner to perfection was indeed enormous. It would save a great deal of cultivation time.
"System, exchange for these two techniques. Cultivate Gale to minor mastery and Wolf Fang Fist to the beginner stage!"
[Ding... Host spent 30,000 to exchange for the movement technique "Gale."] [Ding... Congratulations, host spent 30,000 and reached the beginner stage of the movement technique "Gale"!] [Ding... Congratulations, host spent 60,000 and reached minor mastery of the movement technique "Gale"!]
The instant the system sounded, it was as if countless memories and recollections had appeared in Feng Xiaotian's mind, as though he had experienced them himself. Reaching the beginner stage of Gale had taken half a year, and reaching minor mastery had taken a year and a half.
It was almost as though he had personally lived through that year and a half!
After a short while, Feng Xiaotian opened his eyes. The movement technique Gale felt incomparably familiar, as though he could use it whenever he wanted. It had completely become something he had learned himself.
He had to admit, those tens of thousands of Wolf Warrior Coins had been well spent.
As he felt the changes in his body, the system's voice sounded again.
[Ding... Host spent 40,000 to exchange for the martial skill "Wolf Fang Fist."] [Ding... Congratulations, host spent 80,000 and reached the beginner stage of the martial skill "Wolf Fang Fist"!]
The sensation was almost identical to before, and Feng Xiaotian reached the beginner stage of Wolf Fang Fist as well. He had originally wanted to bring both techniques to minor mastery, but he didn't have enough Wolf Warrior Coins.
The two techniques had cost him 240,000 Wolf Warrior Coins, leaving him with only 100,000. Wolf Fang Fist required another 160,000 to reach minor mastery, so for now he could only learn it to the beginner stage.
As for earning more Wolf Warrior Coins today, he had already reached the spending limit for Ordinary Goddesses. His only option was to find a goddess rated 96 or above at Blazing Fire Academy.
But that was almost impossible, unless he met Huo Wu's mother from the legends. After all, Huo Wu had that kind of potential, so her mother couldn't be much worse.
But in Feng Xiaotian's past memories, he had come here so many times without ever seeing her or hearing anyone mention her, so he didn't pin his hopes on that.
With 100,000 Wolf Warrior Coins left, Feng Xiaotian felt he could continue improving.
Originally, 100,000 could also buy a sufficiently good Soul Ring. After all, an ordinary Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring cost only 10,000 Wolf Warrior Coins, and a Thousand-Year Soul Ring was even cheaper.
But although an ordinary Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring could grant many benefits, the skill obtained from it might not even compare to someone else's high-quality Thousand-Year Soul Ring.
Moreover, Feng Xiaotian's spiritual power was a little lacking at present. If his spiritual power did not reach the minimum requirement of level fifty when absorbing a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, he could suffer a soul backlash.
Secondly, Feng Xiaotian's body simply couldn't withstand the energy brought by a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring. If he forcibly absorbed one, he risked exploding and dying.
Therefore, Feng Xiaotian planned to use the remaining 100,000 Wolf Warrior Coins to improve his physical strength.
Feng Xiaotian thought, System, exchange for a portion of low-grade Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste!
[Ding... Congratulations, host spent 50,000 to exchange for one portion of low-grade Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste.]
After the exchange, Feng Xiaotian immediately locked the door, then took off all his clothes.
As the name suggested, Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste was used to temper the body.
Feng Xiaotian could have exchanged for a body-tempering technique, but such techniques were different from Gale and Wolf Fang Fist.
Not only did exchanging for the technique cost coins, he also had to exchange separately for the supplementary medicine needed to temper the body.
And that supplementary medicine was damn expensive. For example, this low-grade Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste cost 50,000 Wolf Warrior Coins.
The Dragon Tiger Body Tempering Technique itself cost 200,000 Wolf Warrior Coins. Fortunately, the Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste could still have some effect without using the technique.
Its effect was simply much weaker than when used with the Dragon Tiger Body Tempering Technique, roughly seventy percent as effective.
Moreover, he could only use the low-grade Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste for now. Medium-grade and higher had to be used with the Dragon Tiger Body Tempering Technique, or they would cause tremendous damage to the body.
Feng Xiaotian had also spent a long time looking. Although the Dragon Tiger Body Tempering Technique wasn't the best in the system, it was the most suitable for him at present.
Before long, Feng Xiaotian had applied a portion of milky-white Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste, which looked somewhat like the body lotion from his previous life, all over himself.
He applied it all over his body, leaving no spot untouched.
That included that spot.
At first, Feng Xiaotian felt no change in his body. The system's description of the Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste said there might be some pain.
Feng Xiaotian thought it was just a little pain. Body tempering was bound to involve it, and unlike ordinary techniques, there was no shortcut. For over ninety percent of the options in the system, he had to experience it himself.
As for the remaining ten percent, he couldn't afford them yet.
With the Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste applied to his body, Feng Xiaotian could see the milky-white paste disappearing, slowly sinking into him from every part of his body.
Only when the Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste had completely vanished from his skin did Feng Xiaotian feel a trace of pain, coming from all over his body.
After all, he had applied it to every part of himself he could reach.
"That's all the pain there is? Not bad!"
But just as Feng Xiaotian said that, his body suddenly trembled. It was as though something were biting him, as if countless ants were constantly tearing and biting at every part of his body.
"Fuck, I shouldn't have put it on that spot. Ah!" Feng Xiaotian suddenly cried out!
The spot he had applied it to was the one below his abdomen, even farther down-the seat of a man's dignity.
The pain there instantly surpassed that in every other part of his body.
It was a vital spot.
Unbeknownst to him, the system had included a warning about the Dragon-Tiger Body-Tempering Paste: use with caution on certain private areas.
But Feng Xiaotian hadn't read that part. He had only noticed that there would be a little pain, then stopped reading.
Some members of the Godwind Academy team immediately came to Feng Xiaotian's door, knocked and shouted, "Captain, are you all right?"
Feng Xiaotian could only grit his teeth against the pain and say, "I'm... I'm fine! I'm cultivating. Don't disturb me."
"Captain, keep it up!"
"Guard the door for me. Don't let anyone in!" Feng Xiaotian said.
No matter who was outside, he certainly couldn't let anyone in. After all, he was stark naked.
"No problem, Captain!"
With someone guarding the door, Feng Xiaotian let himself go and let out another cry of "Ahhh!"
Only a man could know the pain in that spot, and now it felt like a swarm of ants tearing and biting at it.
Meanwhile, in Skywater Academy's quarters next door, Shui Yue'er stopped cultivating and looked at her elder sister Shui Bing'er not far away. "Sister, did something happen to Brother Feng? I think I heard him scream."
Shui Bing'er also stopped cultivating. She listened carefully and nodded. "It really was him. Could something have happened to Brother Feng?"
Shui Yue'er said, "Then, Sister, should we go over and take a look? Maybe we can help?"
At that moment, Feng Xiaotian held his treasure in both hands and swore that next time, he would never apply it there again!
