The week before the sinking was relatively peaceful.

The word "relatively" is used because Shen Qian had become accustomed to the harassment from a mysterious organization led by Zhao Keyi, whose members included Geng Qianqiu, Ye Shicong, and more than ten others.

Anyway, with them around, Shenqian had a pretty easy time at school. When she was hungry, someone would bring her food; someone would save her a seat in class; and someone would even warm her bed (if Shenqian really wanted to)...

After careful consideration, Shen Qian realized that the price he needed to pay was merely to serve as a sparring partner from time to time, which was completely insignificant.

Moreover, during this process, Shen Qian is constantly examining his own combat skills and awareness, and can also use them to familiarize himself with martial arts techniques.

Most importantly, regardless of your mood, someone will come to your door every day to be your human punching bag.

...It was pretty fun.

The only problem is probably the school clinic. According to Yang Lingjie, the school doctor has resigned several times because he simply doesn't have time to take time off.

At this moment, Shen Qian is in his cultivation room at Villa No. 7.

The professional simulator he asked Wanning to order just arrived today. It took another hour to debug and install it before it was finally set up.

Originally, the cultivation machine came with a simple simulator, but it had too few functions and the experience was terrible, so before sinking, he simply paid out of his own pocket to order a new one.

The total cost for the selected configuration is less than four million. The version is the same as the one from No. 7 Middle School. It is not as good as the military-customized version from Jiangzhong Military Equipment, but it is enough for occasional personal use.

Another advantage is that when Shen Qian is not connected to the internet, none of his personal data will be leaked.

Before sinking this week, I went to explore the Bronze Man Formation's secret realm three more times.

Despite being called a challenge, I went to the Sunken Temple four times but didn't even know what the Bronze Man Formation looked like. All the time was spent learning from Master Jigang in the Arhat Hall.

After four sessions of study, the progress is so-so.

To date, all 72 Shaolin arts have been learned; what remains are Zen meditation and the Heart Sutra.

If all goes well, two or three more visits should be enough.

In order to obtain the supernatural power of the "Arhat Golden Body", Shen Qian showed ample patience.

Having mastered all seventy-two unique skills, Shen Qian was not without his gains.

It's important to know that the 72 Shaolin Arts not only cover fist and foot techniques as well as weapons, but also vary in star rating from one to two stars.

It's like Shen Qian got seventy-two martial arts techniques for free. Whether it's broadening his horizons or his understanding of martial arts, Shen Qian has reached a new level.

At least now, when he uses "Shadow Blade" again, he can do it with ease, if not to the point of being as natural as the system.

The system's energy is finite, and a system lacking energy may go out of control... Therefore, Chen Qian is now consciously trying to reduce his dependence on the system as much as possible.

Although the supernatural power of obtaining the "Arhat Golden Body" is within reach, the journey must be temporarily halted before sinking.

He's going to report to Beiwu tomorrow, and before leaving, he needs to reassess his own strength.

Life was relatively smooth from the time I left Jingcheng to the time I went to Jiangzhong Junwu, but that doesn’t mean that my progress slowed down.

For some reason, it was actually the case that, despite Shen Qian's deliberate suppression, his vital energy was increasing faster and faster over time.

I was worried about potential problems before I went downstairs, which is why I decided to buy this professional body composition analyzer.

Please select a mode.

"Activate professional testing mode."

Shen Qian had a conversation with the simulator's artificial intelligence.

Although he frequently used the school's simulator during this period, he turned off the data monitoring, because if someone with ulterior motives were to create a chart of his daily physical test data, they would likely be horrified.

Because no one can maintain such a terrifying rate of progress at the "high-level martial artist stage".

Before sinking, I vaguely sensed that it had already surpassed the theoretical limits set in textbooks.

His health has been abnormal for some time now; to be precise, ever since he joined Jiangzhong Military, he needs to find out why.

Since there was no internet connection before the sinking and no way to log in to the level, the only option was the blank mode.

However, Shen Qian felt that this was too boring, so after careful consideration, he still uploaded Lao Liu's photo.

A few seconds later, seeing Liu Changqing's indifferent expression, Shen Qian rushed forward with satisfaction and then punched him to pieces.

After testing his physical fitness, Shen Qian fell into a simple illusion.

This is a feature I hadn't experienced before, namely... mental strength detection!

Looking at Xiao Xuan, who was walking towards him in a semi-transparent cheongsam, he chuckled and said, "Is that all?"

Five minutes later, Shen Qian opened his eyes.

After waiting a while, the virtual screen in front of me started displaying lines of data in two sections, each line incredibly detailed.

Before sinking, I checked the physical fitness data on the left.

Username: Not logged in

Data statistics:

Physical strength 9123 kg

Explosive power 8211 kg

Instantaneous speed 1.3 s/100 meters

Vitality Strength: Martial Artist Stage 4 (Late Stage)

Physical Strength Q

Physical toughness N

Physical potential (kg) (?)

..."

Before sinking, he first focused his attention on "physical strength".

Physical strength, which is the theoretically maximum power he can unleash after being empowered by vital energy, or to put it in simpler terms, his explosive power in the system state.

His own explosive power has just exceeded 8000Kg. Sure enough, despite his recent rapid progress, his control over his strength has declined once again.
