High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery-Chapter 67 Have you always worked so hard?

[Blood Circulation: Each time the skill is upgraded by one level, the speed of qi and blood recovery increases by 30%]

"Recover qi and blood?"

Chen Fan was taken aback.

He thought about yesterday when Uncle Zhang mentioned that martial artists in the Muscle Refining Realm could stimulate their internal qi and blood, similar to the explosive power seen in anime, but would fall into a weakened state afterward. Therefore, they couldn’t use it easily unless absolutely necessary.

So, this Blood Circulation skill is meant to be used at that time, right?

Seems quite useful?

But he reconsidered and felt that it might not be that simple.

Martial artists in the Muscle Refining Realm could use qi and blood, but those in the Body Tempering stage, including ordinary people with weaker constitutions, could only rely on pure muscle strength.

Just like when he drew his bow and arrow, he used muscle power, consuming physical strength.

In this sense, qi and blood seemed like a higher level of energy. If this Blood Circulation trait could recover qi and blood, there was no reason for it not to recover physical strength as well.

"I’ll see how effective it is when I practice archery later."

This time, when his Tai Chi Fist Realm was upgraded, besides unlocking new traits, it also provided a large amount of attribute points.

Coupled with the fact that the Basic Spear Technique was upgraded several levels, it provided some additional attributes.

Realm: Body Tempering Third Layer

Level: 8 (0/100)

Constitution: 65.67

Power: 46.11

Agility: 32.28

Spirit: 12.97

Potential Points: 88 (7 points/day)

Experience Points: 111

Chen Fan realized that his Physical Attribute had reached an astonishing 65 points. He estimated that even martial artists in the Early Stage of Muscle Refining had similar constitutions.

Power Attribute at 45 points, Agility Attribute close to 33 points.

The average of these three stats, 47.6!

It already exceeded the 45 points required for a realm breakthrough.

Chen Fan was a bit excited and clicked on the plus sign next to the realm.

Sure enough, the success rate of breaking through at this moment had reached 100%! In other words, just one more click, and he would become a martial artist in the Muscle Refining Realm!

Chen Fan licked his lips, feeling an inexplicable thirst.

He thought reaching the 45-point threshold would involve some difficulties and at least two or three rounds of body enhancement. However, the process was much easier than he had imagined.

He only enhanced his body once; the rest of the attribute increases came from practicing martial arts.

"Break through now? Or wait a bit?"

This question popped into his mind.

But soon, he made up his mind to wait a little longer.

With over a hundred experience points remaining, he could completely raise the proficiency of other martial arts by another level. Also, with the Basic Spear Technique, even if just upgraded by one level, it would add 3 points to his attributes.

With the additional 10% increase in all attributes upon breakthrough, he could gain an extra 0.3 points.

"It’s time to practice the Meteor Arrow Technique, but before that," he looked toward the warehouse, "I need to get a stronger bow."

At this moment, there was a commotion from the direction of the village entrance, louder than usual when the Hunting Team returned.

"Guodong and the others are back!"

A middle-aged man exclaimed.

"Faster than I thought?"

"Yes, coming from the Gu Family Stronghold is a ten-mile journey, and there are many elderly and children. I didn’t expect them to arrive by noon."

"Shall we go and see?"

Several people glanced at Chen Fan, who was just entering the warehouse.

"Never mind, Guodong and the others will handle it. There won’t be any problems."

"Yes, let’s continue practicing the spear."

...

At the village gate, the crowd was bustling.

The people from the Gu Family Stronghold, old and young, carrying large bags, looked nervously at the village and the large crowd in front of them.

Is this the Chen Family Stronghold?

So many people?

The people from Chen Family Stronghold were also curiously watching the newcomers.

Everyone was staring at each other, and the atmosphere was quite awkward.

"Ahem."

Chen Guodong coughed, drawing everyone’s attention before speaking, "From now on, there is no Gu Family Stronghold. We are all from the same village, any objections?"

Liu Yong and a few others looked at each other and were the first to shout:

"No objections!"

"From now on, we are all from the Chen Family Stronghold, no distinction between us."

"Exactly!"

The crowd from the Chen Family Stronghold echoed in agreement.

Gu Jianghai nodded repeatedly, turning to his people and said, "Everyone heard that. From now on, we are all from the same village, and we all have to listen to Brother Guodong. Don’t worry, our lives will definitely get better and better. We won’t have to go hungry anymore."

When they heard they wouldn’t go hungry, everyone’s eyes lit up.

They had already heard last night that the Chen Family Stronghold’s Hunting Team had brought back five game animals in one go. Therefore, they were not resistant to the idea of moving, and even had some expectations.

Now, with Gu Jianghai’s words, their inner desire was awakened, and their emotions began to stabilize.

"That’s right, our lives will only get better in the future."

Chen Guodong nodded.

They couldn’t always rely on Xiaofan, so they were working hard too, practicing martial arts diligently so that one day, they could live on their own strength.

The people from Gu Family Stronghold were settled in order under guidance.

There were plenty of empty houses; it wouldn’t be a problem to accommodate double the number of people.

Gu Ze walked among the crowd, looking around. Not seeing the person he was looking for, he glanced at Chen Guodong, who was leading the way. Hesitating, he couldn’t help but ask, "Uncle Chen, where is Chen Fan?"

Chen Guodong and others were taken aback.

"Xiaofan? He should be over at the warehouse, practicing archery." Liu Yong laughed heartily.

"Practicing archery?"

Gu Ze nodded slightly.

This was within his expectations. If Chen Fan was lazing around, that would be surprising.

"No wonder Chen Fan’s archery is so amazing. He must practice every day."

Gu Jianghai praised.

"Yes, Xiaofan is very diligent."

Gao Yang sighed, "Not only does he practice archery every day, but he also practices spear techniques."

"What?"

Gu Ze blurted out, "I thought he used a bow and arrow? He also practices spear techniques?"

Gao Yang wore a ’you’re too young’ expression, "Xiaofan not only practices spear techniques but also fist techniques."

"Indeed. While we are still practicing the basic stance, Xiaofan has reached the beginner level in fist techniques."

"What?"

This time, it was Gu Jianghai’s turn to be surprised. He looked at Gao Yang and the others, "You...You guys are also practicing martial arts?"

"Yes, we all practice martial arts."

"We practiced all night last night."

A few people spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, feeling a bit pleased inside.

Sure enough, Gu Jianghai and the others gasped.

Look at them, practicing martial arts after each hunt, continuously seeking improvement. Compare that to themselves, lounging around after returning. How could the gap not be significant?

"Alright."

Chen Guodong laughed helplessly, not wanting to expose the facts. He just said, "Brother Gu, since we are all one village now, why don’t you join us in practicing martial arts from today?"

"Really? We can too?"

Several people couldn’t believe it.

They knew that ordinary people could become martial artists, but food was scarce and they couldn’t obtain the methods.

Now that both conditions were met, did it mean they could also become martial artists like Chen Fan?

"Of course."

Chen Guodong nodded with a smile.

Not only them, but ideally, everyone in the village would practice martial arts.

"Uncle Chen, can I go now?"

Gu Ze asked, unable to contain his excitement.
