In the past, Zeng Yicheng would drag Qin Fen to engage in vile fights for the entire night. However, after he finished speaking, Zeng Yicheng chose to disappear in this special mental space, leaving Qin Fen to stand alone and ponder spellbound.
Qin Fen had thought about the fighting style for the vile ultimate move for more than a single day or two. Zeng Yicheng’s words were like a sudden cudgel and shout to the face, yet they were also like a large hand that dispelled the clouds to allow him to see the sun. Countless scenes quickly pulsated through his mind for a time.
Control over power… The Dragon Elephant Prajna Art slowly circulated within his body. Faint details, never detected in the past, were experienced in this moment.
Qin Fen spent the night in contemplation.
The red glow of the sun appeared before the horizon, and Qin Fen awakened from a deep sleep. The military training these days gave him the habit of waking up at fixed times.
Qin Fen did a simple wash of his face, walked out of the room, and ran down the stairs. He started his daily morning training, something absolutely essential.
He arrived at the hall, and the elevator’s door just so happened to open. Xue Tian let out a yawn, his face showed that he had yet to be fully awake as he walked outside.
“Morning….” Xue Tian stretched his body.
“Morning.” Qin Fen nodded. Xue Tian was obviously quite diligent to have first-class skill at this age.
“I really hate holo calls.” Xue Tian walked shoulder to shoulder with Qin Fen out of the hotel. Endless complaints came out of his mouth. “I originally thought that I could skip morning training since I’ve been dispatched on a mission, but I was still yelled awake in the end.”
Qin Fen smiled without saying anything. Qin Fen was used to waking up early to deliver milk in the morning. People who just entered the military and weren’t used to waking up early really found it uncomfortable.
The two ran for three kilometers with Xue Tian’s words of complaint never-ending. They ran through an intersection, and Xue Tian studied their surroundings. He saw a few concrete benches and said. “Bro, were you yelled awake by your drill instructor too? There are some seats there. Why don’t we take this chance to slack off and rest for a bit….”
Qin Fen ran forward before Xue Tian could even finish speaking.
Morning training wasn’t that amazing. It could only count as a warm-up at most. If Qin Fen didn’t warm-up, he would feel a bit uncomfortable.
“Then do your best. I’ll just nap here.”
Xue Tian really did sit on the concrete bench and fall asleep. Qin Fen turned his head to look at Xue Tian. His eyes contained puzzlement. How was Xue Tian so strong even though he was this lazy? How did he train his strength to be this great? Could it be that Xue Tian sneaked off every night to train?
Shaking his head, Qin Fen continued to do his morning run. His mind continued to contemplate Zeng Yicheng’s suggested vile ultimate skill without end.
Vileness. Vileness. A vile ultimate skill? Qin Fen curled his lips. It was really hard for someone not vile to create a vile ultimate skill.
“Stop running if you dare!”
A furious yell came from the real world, firmly interrupting Qin Fen’s train of thought.
Not too far in the distance was a young man sprinting like mad. Behind him was another youngster with a slightly fatter body who held an iron rod in his hand as he gave chase.
“Stop running if you dare….”
The fatter young man yelled once again, but the more he yelled, the faster the man in front ran. The distance between the two was becoming larger and larger.
“Stinky kid. Do you dare….”
Qin Fen slowed his footsteps. He watched, stunned at the chase between the two young men who were about the same age as him. His eyes gradually began to light up.
Yeah! That’s right! If you can’t win, just run! Though this can be described as shameless, this followed the vile way very closely! If you encounter someone powerful on a higher level than you in a fight, and you clearly are incapable of being your opponent even when holding the upper hand, a sudden escape is likely to be outside your opponent’s expectations, right?
Body movement! Body movement! Qin Fen was so excited that his hands clenched tightly into fists. He finally had a general idea of Zeng Yicheng’s vile ultimate move! Whether it was fleeing or in the midst of battle, body movement was extremely important.
It wasn’t easy to create one’s own ultimate move. Qin Fen didn’t rush to go back into contemplation. Instead, he continued with his morning run. He strove to be consistent with the force of his legs every time he stepped on the ground and pushed off to go forward.
Control. Precise control. This could only be quickly trained by paying deliberate attention to every small detail during exercise.
Qin Fen ran five kilometers before returning to the hotel’s restaurant. Xue Tian had already enjoyed the buffet here. Looking at how the chopsticks were placed on the table, it looked like Xue Tian had been here for quite some time.
“Over here, Old Qin.” Xue Tian raised a hand. “I’ve already helped get breakfast for you.”
Breakfast was bread, jam, fried eggs, and milk.
Qin Fen held bread in one hand and jam in the other. His usual habit already displayed itself; he slathered the jam on the bread to eat.
It was easy to slather jam on the bread, but slathering the jam evening on the bread made the task much more difficult. Qin Fen was never able to do so in the past.
But that will change from henceforth today! Qin Fen secretly told himself. He began to move his hand in smearing the jam.
The first slice… ended in failure… the second slice… ended in failure… the thirty-five slice ended in failure…
Countless slices of bread piled on Qin Fen’s table. He failed thirty-five times in a short time. Smearing the jam evenly didn’t appear to be hard, but to truly smear the jam to be perfectly even was not an easy matter.
“Sir….” The waitress at the restaurant walked over to remind Qin Fen with good intentions. “We forbid wasting food here. You’ll be fined if you keep this up.”
“Fined?” Qin Fen smiled. This little bit of jam and bread was really nothing to him, but then he saw the waitress’s awkward expression, and he stuffed a failed piece of work into his mouth.
One slice… two slices… three slices… five slices… thirty slices…
The waitress’s eyes were about to pop out of her head just from watching. She worked here for nearly a year, but she never saw someone who could eat as much as Qin Fen. Qin Fen ate thirty slices so far and showed no signs of being full.
Thirty-five slices were completely annihilated, and Qin Fen slowly picked up his thirty-sixth slice of bread. Xue Tian had initially been watching the lively scene with enthusiasm, but now there was an additional wrinkle of surprise on his forehead.
He’s training his control! He already has enormous control over his power, but he still feels like it isn’t enough! Xue Tian’s usual frivolous expression had already vanished from the face of the earth. In its place was an expression of vexation and admiration.
“Sigh…. why don’t you let people live life….” Xue Tian howled in grief. “You are already so talented and you’re so hard working. This guy knows already. Do you want to kill me or something?”
Xue Tian picked up a slice of bread as well. He copied Qin Fen in smearing jam on the bread.
The restaurant waitress gaped as she watched. Were these two young men really eating breakfast? It would take a normal person not even a dozen seconds to smear jam on a slice of bread, yet these two spent five minutes, six minutes, seven minutes smearing jam on their bread. And they were smearing slower and slower.
Such movements didn’t appear like that of smearing jam. Instead, their movements were like that when creating a grand piece of art.
The simple breakfast took the two young men a total of four hours to eat.
Every waiter and waitress of the restaurant were stupefied watching them. These two young men ate their bread and jam totally immersed in the world of smearing jam.
Every person who came to the restaurant for lunch looked at Qin Fen and Xue Tian with sidelong glances. These two young men were still eating bread and jam for lunch.
Qin Fen’s entire body and mind were cast into the training of control over power. Qin Fen didn’t sense the passage of time from breakfast to lunch at all.
Ding…
The metal spoon for spreading jam clanged against the bottom of the glass of jam, letting out a crisp sound. The sound drew Qin Fen and Xue Tian from their immersion and back to the normal world.
They were out of jam…
Qin Fen looked at the bread and jam next to Xue Tian, and Xue Tian looked at the bread and jam next to himself as well.
The two locked gazes and smiled. Though none of them had reached their desired result in this morning’s training on control over power resulted in failure, the training wasn’t a complete waste.
The surface of bread was already an uneven surface. To spread the jam evenly on the bread was far more difficult than one could imagine.
The restaurant’s waitresses and waiters still stood beside them. They looked at the two with awkward gazes.
Four hours of spreading jam resulted in far too much bread and jam being created. Even a large bellied man would find the food to be substantial.
Qin Fen and Xue Tian locked gazes and smiled once again. While the restaurant’s waiters and waitresses were dumbstruck, they swept the entire table full of bread and jam completely clean.
The other diners were stupefied as well, watching this scene. Were these two men the incarnation of starving ghosts?
Qin Fen raised his head to look at the clock on the wall. He never thought he would eat breakfast all the way until noon. He swallowed the remaining jam and bread, gave Song Jia a call, and hurried to Song Jia and the others’ restaurant.
Qin Fen thought about how he was going to eat lunch right after breakfast and could only give a weak smile.
————-
A bracelet worth a couple dollars, and a necklace worth a couple hundred dollars.
Lev Mirov and the others stood beside Song Jia. They felt an incomparable surprise. How could she wear such crude handmade jewelry with such excitement? Could it be what was popular in the upper echelon of society had changed once more?
Qin Fen walked into the hall and saw Song Jia wearing the jewelry with a single glance.
She wore no earrings. She wore no watches. Today, Song Jia wore merely a bracelet and a necklace.
“Apologies for being late.”
Qin Fen gave a nod of apology. He had broken the promise of meeting on time and was far too late. The promised time had been nine o’clock. Right now it was nearly half an hour past noon.
“You look a bit tired, bro.” Lin Liqiang sidestepped the matter of Qin Fen being late. “Last night, did pick up the room service phone, and not holding back you….”
“Qiangster, do you think Qin Fen is like you?”
Song Jia rapped Lin Liqiang in the back, expressing her protest.
Lev Mirov walked out from behind Song Jia. He arrived before Qin Fen with two steps, turned around, and spoke in the direction from whence they came. “Young Master Ge. This is the Qin Fen I mentioned to you before, sir. This is the expert in paintball shooting and the powerhouse in virtual aerial combat.”
Qin Fen followed Lev Mirov’s gaze with his eyes and saw a young man he hadn’t seen yesterday. The young man possessed a v-shaped build, and his shoulders were especially wide. His square face was like a work of art chiseled from stone.
This young man stood in a group of people who possessed strength out of the norm, yet the young man gave Qin Fen a feeling of a crane in a flock of chicken, someone who was much superior than the others.
In the past, Zeng Yicheng would drag Qin Fen to engage in vile fights for the entire night. However, after he finished speaking, Zeng Yicheng chose to disappear in this special mental space, leaving Qin Fen to stand alone and ponder spellbound.
