Translator: Cold Love
Chapter 9: Struck by lightning
After teacher Liu absent-mindedly comforted the miserable Shao Wu, he emotionally jogged towards Niu Xu.
"Good one lad," He slapped Niu Xu, who was still in a dazed, on the shoulder, joy was written all over his face.
Next, under teacher Liu's personal arrangement, he organized 2 tests for Niu Xu, namely speed and reaction time. Even if Niu Xu intentionally hold back his strength, teacher Liu was still overjoyed at the final tests results.
Fist strength was 812 kg, explosive speed was 1.6 km/min, reaction time was 0.82 ms-The data for these 3 aspects qualified for Advanced stage ApprenticeWarrior. These naturally meant that this brat Niu Xu was already an Advanced stage ApprenticeWarrior.
If it's plainly like that, teacher Liu would not be this excited. In his broad 10 plus years of teaching experience, those who could step into Advanced stage ApprenticeWarrior before year 3 were quite rare. This type of 'good' students only appeared one every 1 or 2 years.
The reason he lost his composure was due to the fact that during the test several days before, teacher Liu clearly remembered that Niu Xu was stuck at the gate of Intermediate stage ApprenticeWarrior. No matter how hard Niu Xu tried, his strength was always missing by that small bit.
Teacher Liu was extremely interested in how Niu Xu, a student with an ordinary evolution rate, could improve by leaps and bounds in just a few days. If he could understand the principle behind it, he would have at least achieved a 'National ranked outstanding instructor' title before he retired.
Enthusiastically, teacher Liu faced the students and spoke a few sentences regarding safety before bringing Niu Xu to his office.
As for the dazed student Shao Wu, teacher Liu did not even have the heart to comfort and enlighten him. Shao Wu sat in a corner, dispirited, just like an abandoned small chicken…
Meanwhile, inside teacher Liu's office. Niu Xu calmed his jubilant self down from the explosive increase in strength and realised that he was facing a great danger. How could he explain clearly such that a poor lad like him would have a huge improvement in strength in such a short amount of time.
Firstly, he would not reveal the slightest secret of the jade pendant-The ability to traversed to the mysterious primordial age. If he revealed, the best case scenario would be his jade pendant getting stolen easily. If the consequences were slightly damaging, even his little life would be in danger.
He did not think that his current strength-battle power at the Beginner Warrior, could prevent other people from coveting and stealing his treasure.
In just BaoQing this third level city base alone, the amount of official warrior numbered in 10 thousands.
Not to mention the garrison in other cities, as long as the position was above lieutenant, only Beginner Warrior and above could assume. His current measly strength could only be counted as peak among the year 2 students.
Under the incessant questioning of teacher Liu, with a quick spin of brain, Niu Xu decided to tell a big big lie.
After stopping for a while, Niu Xu assumed an expression of pretending to recall and said, "Last night, I was caught in a thunderstorm after finishing my work. Then all of a sudden, a huge bolt of lightning directly struck my head."
"After getting struck by lightning, I fainted. When I woke up, I realised that my body was covered in a tar-like substance with a stinky sweat smell. Since I did not feel uncomfortable anywhere, I directly went home to sleep. When I woke up, I realised that my body was extremely comfortable and my strength has also increase, but I did not think it would reach this extent." Niu Xu explained with a face full of fear, as if it was traumatic trying to recall the incident last night.
This lie was only half-truth, no doubt increasing the credibility of it. In his heart, Niu Xu thought 'If some low IQ youth was to believe this saying and went to touch electric fences or to search for getting struck by lightning, please don't blame me if you die ah…'
After hearing Niu Xu's explanation, teacher Liu's originally burning heart immediately turned cold. His rationality told him that Niu Xu's miracle was impossible to be replicated.
In the news report, globally, those unlucky ones that got struck by lightning numbered up to 3 digits. However, those who could survive it was less than half, and those that received this kind of benefit were practically non-existent.
As a qualified form teacher, good old man teacher Liu still had a great sense of responsibility. After informing the school principal, he brought Niu Xu to the hospital to undergo a full body check-up.
The doctor had the same surprised expression as he looked at the check-up report. He came to a conclusion: According to the check-up, after the cells in Niu Xu's body were stimulated by a strange energy, its activity rate was 5 times higher than a normal person and it was filled to the brim with vigor.
By explaining it in another way, it basically meant that Niu Xu had a strong life force, abundant Qi and blood and his body constitution far exceeded that of normal people. Moreover, based on the marks of metabolism on the cells, it showed that this drastic change happened within 24 hours. Hence, Niu Xu's saying of getting struck by lightning was totally trustworthy.
Incidentally, they easily found the district on the watch's internet based on Niu Xu's description. Due to the lightning strike last night, it resulted in a news report on the damaged surveillance cameras around that area. This was all very logically.
Niu Xu heavily sighed in his heart after hearing the doctor's conclusion. He finally bullshit his way through this incident and he got to protect his big secret…
That night, Niu Xu once again cooked a large pot boar meat to reward himself and similarly, he had a pleasant sleep. It's just that in the next morning, he saw that the amount of sweat and tar discharged from his body was significantly lesser than yesterday.
He vaguely understood that due to long period of tough training, it completely drained his drained his body. After receiving a huge amount of nourishment, his body condition improved by a large margin.
Although the effects last night's boar meat was significantly lesser, as one increased their number of consumption, the effects will become lesser and lesser, however, Niu Xu was not dismayed.
One cannot be too greedy! As Niu Xu believed that as long as he could consume this mysterious boar meat for long periods of time, even if others were geniuses with an extremely high evolution rate, their cultivation speed certainly could not compare to his.
This included those white people that claimed to be loved by God. They would be overtaken by Niu Xu and would be viciously stepped upon by Niu Xu.
After swinging around a few punches, Niu Xu experienced the strength and movements of his hands with concentration, it was as if his strength has increased by another level.
In this 16 years, heroism and ambition surfaced in this miserable youth's heart for the first time.
