My life has the gift of growth.

Chapter 8 Talent [Precision Body]

In six years, Bai Yu went from elementary school to junior high school, and many things changed:

Farther away, the global average temperature drops for the first time, and the range of alien animals expands;
Recently, Zhou Yulan received a promotion and a salary increase, and the financial pressure on her family has been reduced a lot;
For himself, the most significant change was his body.

After he entered puberty at the age of twelve, his physical growth accelerated, and his height, muscles, reflexes and other functions improved significantly.
At the same time, the three growth cards [Born Talent], [Born Strongman], and [Coordination Nerve] were integrated with [Magic Toy], and he obtained the third talent: [Precision Body]

[Precision Body Level 1: Improved control over one's own muscles. (For every 40 points of comprehensive attributes, the talent increases by one level, and the effect of the next level is: increased control over one's own organs and tissues.)]

This talent gives him a huge advantage in both learning martial arts and actual combat.

However, these didn't make him very happy. He just did what he should do, and it was normal to be stronger than ordinary warriors.

In the past six years, there was only one thing that really made him happy: three months ago, Wang Xin finally relented and allowed Han Yingying to learn martial arts with him.

Outside Kunpeng Martial Arts Hall, Bai Yu and Han Yingying met, and they walked towards the school together. Today, Saturday, the school's martial arts room is open and they can use it freely.

"Are you angry? I won't let you do your best in school team selection." Bai Yu said to Han Yingying beside him.

"Why are you angry?" Han Yingying bit a candied haws in her hand. It was sour and sweet, and her eyes turned into crescent moons. "You taught me martial arts. I just listen to you."

"What if I'm jealous of your talent?"

Bai Yu recalled the scene when he taught Han Yingying martial arts for the first time, "You can learn the martial arts I demonstrated in one go. You are more talented than me. It won't take long for you to surpass me." "

Han Yingying stopped and said seriously: "Bai Yu, you are not that kind of person. You must have your own reasons. I believe you!"

Bai Yu was silent and looked up at the big screen outside the mall.

The "King of Martial Arts" title battle being broadcast live above has ended, and the familiar figure successfully defended the title of "King of Martial Arts" without any suspense.

He is getting stronger, and the opponent is also improving. In the short term, he will simply not be able to surpass him.
More realistically, no one would believe that one of the most talented young martial artists in the Federation would be a crazy alien martial artist.

"Han Ying, there is a bad guy who is very strong. I don't have the confidence to defeat her. Together, the two of us should be able to win, but before that moment comes, I need you to hide your strength, okay?" Bai Yu told the truth.

He hoped that Han Yingying would agree. Among the people he knew, Han Yingying was the only one with such talent and responsibility.

But he also hoped that Han Yingying would refuse. Han Yingying should not be the one to look up to in the audience.

"Well, no problem, as long as I can help Bai Yu." Han Yingying agreed without any hesitation.

"You will lose a lot of opportunities to stand on the stage and shine. This is unfair to you. You have to seriously consider it." Bai Yu said seriously.

Han Yingying was silent for a while and shook her head, "Those things are not important to me. We have hooked up and are lifelong friends, and my mother also asked us to take care of each other. This is what I want."

"I see."

Bai Yu felt warm in his heart. He looked at the candied haws in Han Yingying's hand. Han Yingying had been holding it for so long, but there was still half of it on it.

"Isn't it delicious?" he asked.

"It's delicious." Han Yingying affirmed and handed the candied haws skewers to Bai Yu, "I left half of this for you. Do you want to try it?"

"I don't like sweets, just leave one for me next time." Bai Yu took a mouthful and swallowed it.

……

Within the federal territory, all junior high schools offer martial arts classes. Bai Yu’s No. 3 Junior High School in Tianhai City has three martial arts classes a week.
But it’s a martial arts class, but it’s actually more like an enhanced physical education class. Their martial arts teachers are only amateur level 4, and they can’t teach much substantive things.

Students who really want to pursue martial arts will go to martial arts gyms with better teaching quality and facilities after class.

Therefore, the school's martial arts room will be free on weekends, and Bai Yu usually teaches Han Yingying martial arts here.

"Han Ying, today I will teach you "Yu"'s advanced martial art "Iron Yu". "Iron Yu" has two more nodes than "Yu". It has stronger defense but less flexibility."

Bai Yu, who had already put on his martial arts uniform, said that the six nodes on his body, including feet, knees, hips, chest, shoulders, and jaws, were connected in series to operate the "compression" band, and an invisible force field suddenly covered his skin. above,
"Punch me now and feel how hard it is!" Bai Yu finally emphasized when he saw Han Yingying's soft eyes.

"Oh, okay." Han Yingying took a stance and stretched out her pink fist to barely hit Bai Yu's chest.

There was a muffled sound of "bang", Bai Yu was punched and did not move at all.
"How do you feel?" Bai Yu asked.

"It's hard, as if it has hit a wall, and the fist has not touched your body." Han Yingying said.

"This is "Iron Control". The force field it constructs is thicker than "Iron Control" and can completely cover the body surface. Now you can try it yourself."

Bai Yu did not need to directly teach Han Yingying the specific operation methods of "Iron Control" because his language was too pale compared to Han Yingying's intuition. Han Yingying was a genius in the true sense.

Once, twice, three times. Bai Yu watched Han Yingying go from stranger to proficient. In just ten minutes, Han Yingying surpassed the months of hard training of ordinary martial arts masters.

"Bai Yu, is that true?" Han Yingying felt the changes in her body, puffed up her chest, and was eager to try, "Punch me too and see."

"."

Bai Yu unconsciously glanced at Han Yingying's bulging chest.

Even if he didn't want to pay attention to some things, Han Yingying, who often ate and exercised with him, would accidentally bump into him from all angles, not to mention that Han Yingying would sometimes change her clothes in front of him.

He has witnessed Han Yingying's transformation from a girl to a girl. This transformation is not only physical, but also mental. Han Yingying's academic performance has reached the middle and lower reaches.

However, sometimes he can still be a little slow, like now, and he doesn't see him as a man at all.

"You just need to learn it by yourself. There is no need for me to test it. Now I will teach you the second use of "Iron Control", the steel fist." Bai Yu said.

"It's not fair. It's obviously your turn to hit me." Han Yingying muttered in a low voice and continued studying.

Two hours later, Bai Yu completed a complete set of "Iron Royal" teachings. Han Yingying also absorbed them all, and the rest was practical application.

But it is a pity that no matter how much Bai Yu persuades, Han Yingying will not use martial arts against him. When the two of them compete, it is like dancing,

There was no other way, so Bai Yu had no choice but to take a step back and let Han Yingying use the boxing machine to test her explosive power.

"Snapped!"

Han Yingying seriously punched the "steel fist" at the bull's-eye. The numbers on the monitor soared rapidly until it stopped at the conspicuous 1021kg. Then a burst of victory music played, and Han Yingying's punching power broke the school record.

"Yes, it's at the level of amateur 5-dan." Bai Yu confirmed from the side.

Fist strength is not the standard for determining a martial artist's rank, but it does have certain reference value. A ton of punch power is definitely unique among martial arts masters of the same age, and not many people can match it head-on.

Han Yingying had no idea about this, but when she saw Bai Yu nodding, she became silly and happy.
"Bai Yu, are you going to the martial arts gym tomorrow? Mom gave me money and asked me to treat you to a big dinner for lunch tomorrow. I'll go find you after I finish my homework."

"Okay, I have a competition tomorrow, so you can come and observe other types of martial arts up close."

"Yeah!" Han Yingying was even happier, "Then I'll call my godmother. She should also want to watch you compete."

"No, she finally had a rest on the weekend. She read a book at home and watered the flowers. It's quite good." Bai Yu refused.

"I know, then I'll be alone." Han Yingying stopped talking. She vaguely felt Bai Yu's thoughts...

At night, the two of them separated at the intersection of the community and went back to their respective homes. Bai Yu unlocked the door and walked to the living room, where he saw Zhou Yulan stepping on the chair on the dining table to change the light bulb.

"I'll do it." He saw Zhou Yulan's slightly trembling shoulders.

"Oh, it's rare for a cold little mouth to say such gentle words." Zhou Yulan turned back and opened her hands to Bai Yu below, "Come on, use your height advantage."

Bai Yu had no choice but to reach out and hug Zhou Yulan, who was just over 16 meters tall, and then stepped on the table himself.

"Be careful." Zhou Yulan held down the chair for him.

Bai Yu doesn't need such help. He has been practicing martial arts for many years and can balance on one foot on the mouth of a wine bottle. This matter is naturally not a problem.
But he did not refuse. Outside he was a strong martial artist, but in front of Zhou Yulan, he was still an ordinary person.

After changing the light bulb, the two simply tidied up and started dinner.

At the dinner table, Zhou Yulan talked about various things in Crescent Academy, and occasionally mentioned Zhao Linglong.
Bai Yu didn't say much as usual, he just listened until all the food in the bowl was consumed.

"I'm going back to my room." He finished washing the dishes.

Zhou Yulan saw Bai Yu leaving and glanced at the time on her phone. It would be seven o'clock in three minutes.

“Recently, gaming time has become more and more fixed, and I don’t know what the charm of [early to bed and early to rise] is.”

Zhou Yulan muttered and turned on the TV in the living room.
