Chapter 135: 123 The Nine Realms of the Physical Body, Recruiting Troops and Horses, Ambitions of a Wolf’s Child (New Moon Major Chapter for Monthly Tickets)_3
Pei Jinye looked on wistfully.

Enough my ass.

Shaking his head, he asked, “Do we have any seniors in the team who have already forged their bones from the Body Technique System?”

“There are, but you’re not a transcendent of the Physical Technique Faction. If you cultivate so deeply, aren’t you afraid you’ll train your life away?” Brother Bi hesitated.

“It’s still better than being beaten to death,” he replied.

“Uh.” Brother Bi was startled, scratching his head. “That seems to make sense.”

“You’re not from the Body Technique System?”

At the Investigation Team’s Base, in the activity area of Group Seven,

a burly bald man seemed uncertain of what he had heard, twisting his head in bewilderment.

Brother Bi shrugged helplessly at his side.

He had the same expression when he first found out that Pei Jinye wanted to temper his body.

The bald man was silent for a while but kindly hinted, “Is there any discomfort in your body during the physical examination?”

Brother Bi also turned his head to look at Pei Jinye.

“Everything’s normal at the moment,” Pei Jinye said with a smile, aware of the man’s good intentions. “I wonder if Brother Kui has any methods for bone forging?”

“Have you reached the limit of exfoliating?” the bald man couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“Feels like it’s close,” Pei Jinye didn’t commit himself too firmly.

The bald man seemed intrigued.

He examined Pei Jinye up and down with an inexplicable expression.

This young man didn’t seem old at all.

Yet, he had already cultivated to the point of exfoliating.

What was even more terrifying was that he wasn’t from the Body Technique System!!!

Of course, he had heard of such people before—born with stronger vitality than others, with immense potential in their physical bodies. However…

If you’re not from the Body Technique System, cultivating the physical body is tantamount to trading life for cultivation!

He couldn’t help but look at the handsome young man and suddenly felt an itch in his hands.

But then he heard Pei Jinye eagerly say, “How about we have a go, Brother Kui?”

“Haha, I’d love nothing more,” the bald man laughed heartily.

Brother Bi, utterly bored watching them getting eager, looked around, found a chair, dragged it over, lay down, and closed his eyes in a turtle-like repose.

Every two seconds, there was a “bang” of a muffled sound, startling Bi, who opened his eyes to see.

The arms of Pei Jinye and the bald man clashed, and for a moment, they were evenly matched.

Brother Bi was taken aback.

“This kid…”

He had thought Pei Jinye would be defeated in one move, but the outcome wasn’t as he had imagined.

“Not bad, you really have exfoliated!” the bald man said with astonished eyes, “Again!”

“Sure!”

Pei Jinye was far from courteous, eager to take advantage of this opportunity to spar with such a well-foundational Body Technique martial artist.

With every step and clenched fist, their vitality throbbed and clashed.

“Quite wild,”

the bald man laughed boisterously, turning his fist into a palm, parrying Pei Jinye’s punch, stepping forward, twisting his shoulder, resembling the spine of a dragon horse, leaning into him.

“Bang!”

Feeling the shock in his vitality, Pei Jinye’s figure swept past, his tiptoe tapping the ground, and with a whirling trajectory, he took a deep breath and threw a straight punch.

“Well done!”

The bald man’s eyes brightened. Initially, he was cautious, afraid to damage Brother Bi’s prized disciple.

But after two exchanges, he got a clearer picture of Pei Jinye’s strength… Plus, when he held back their sparring felt awkward. Now unleashing his full power, his vitality surged even more.

Seeing Brother Kui’s momentum soaring, a glint of excitement sparked in Pei Jinye’s eyes as he thought, “Well done.”

His stance firm on the ground, his aura thunderous, this energy accumulation seemed to focus all his force into one point. Under the buffeting of his blood energy, it was as if a wrathful dragon was crushing mountains.

“Damn!”

Brother Bi was totally stunned.

He had always regarded Pei Jinye as a novice straight out of high school and never expected that such a seemingly ordinary body could contain such tremendous force.

The image of Pei Jinye being abducted that day flashed across his mind…

He suddenly realized why Pei Jinye was able to kill the people from the Old Gods Association.

With such mettle, he truly was a one-man fortress.

The bald man let out a heavy breath, looking at the fist mark on his arm. With a wave, the mark dissipated on its own.

Looking up, his gaze was filled with admiration.

“What powerful moves, are you really not from the Body Technique System?”

Before Pei Jinye could answer, Brother Bi jumped in ahead of him, “How could that be, but Little Pei’s blood energy is truly fierce.”

“That’s a shame…” the bald man shook his head regrettably, “If you were indeed from the Body Technique System, then the martial arts you’d cultivate for tempering your body would surely take you far. The natural attribute of the Body Technique System can help us recover from the many negative effects of body tempering… While you non-Body Technique folks, unless you spend a lot of money on medical care, repeatedly nurturing your body, can only delay the ravages of hidden illnesses on the body.”

“I understand all that,” Pei Jinye nodded, feeling a numbness in his arm. “But Brother Kui, have you forged your bones?”

“Yes.” The bald man saw that Pei Jinye was determined and turned his head to look at Brother Bi.

Brother Bi could only shrug.

He couldn’t persuade Pei Jinye otherwise.

Being stronger was not a bad thing, as long as he didn’t destroy his life force in the pursuit of body tempering. Otherwise, even a divine doctor would be powerless to help.

After all, there were no shortage of such examples.

Seeing the two discussing martial arts cultivation, Brother Bi found it dull and went over to Old Zhang, taking a dust feather to train the dog.

But the Big Black Dog, with its head drooping, found a different spot to rest, turning its back on him, utterly uninterested in engaging.
