In middle age, one's comprehension becomes extraordinary.

The three-day period was about the same as expected.

In martial arts training, one must understand one's own condition and be able to sense one's current position.

Having this feeling will prevent you from feeling too frustrated when you encounter difficulties.

The scheduled three days have passed, but Li Yuan is not leaving immediately.

Because of the breakthrough, the protective energy on the surface of his body has been broken, and he needs to condense it again.

Li Yuan has a deep understanding of "Tian Gang Body Refining".

Once you've condensed your inner energy, don't think of it as something incredibly precious.

The protective aura on the surface of the body is merely a layer of defense against enemies.

Furthermore, when the "Heavenly Gang Body Refinement" technique is gradually perfected, the Qi on the surface of the body should be freely available for use.

These protective energies will be controlled by the martial artist and transformed into various forms.

This step involves continuously shattering the protective aura and then re-condensing it.

What I'm doing now is just a rehearsal.

Li Yuan felt that this step should take about a day.

Starting tomorrow, I'm preparing to embark on this newly accepted B-level mission.

In the main office of the liaison office in Lanying City.

Chen Moying, who was radiant just two days ago, is starting to feel a little anxious.

Three days have passed, and Li Yuan still hasn't come to hand in the task.

Worried, she tried to contact Li Yuan, but the call didn't go through.

In previous missions, Li Yuan had completed them very quickly.

Why is this B-rank mission taking so long...?

While she was feeling anxious, her colleagues in the office finally felt a little more at ease.

Jealousy is something everyone experiences.

However, my colleagues all maintain a facade of propriety.

Even if you feel jealous, you won't show it, lest you appear petty.

Zhuang Meng and Jin Qianhui also breathed a slight sigh of relief.

The better Li Yuan performed, the more they would regret it and feel distressed.

It's only when there are a few minor problems that it's like a normal martial artist participating in a trial.

Another day has passed, and Li Yuan has fully recovered.

Depart for Wugang City to receive your assignment at the preparatory office.

The place we went to this time was not far from where we turned on the machine last time.

They belong to the same industrial park.

The large machines that need to be turned on are still the core machines of the factory, responsible for scheduling and allocation.

Li Yuan spent some time mastering the entire activation process.

The talent of "photographic memory" allows one to achieve extraordinary results in doing these things.

Amid Chen Moying's anxiety, Li Yuan had already arrived in Wugang City.

Before I even entered the factory, a dark figure lunged at me.

Little Rock Bear, a Class B ferocious beast!

In the reports of martial arts deaths, bear-like ferocious beasts accounted for five percent of the total.

One in every twenty reported deaths was caused by a bear or other dangerous animal.

Furthermore, after consuming humans, bear-like ferocious beasts are more likely to include humans in their diet.

If you encounter a bear or other ferocious beast in the wild, you must be extremely vigilant.

Despite its name containing the character "小" (small), the little rock bear is an extremely ferocious beast among bears.

In just one border defense zone, hundreds of its violent acts are reported every year.

The animal's body was largely covered by a hard, rock-like outer skin.

Because of its smaller size, it is more agile than other ferocious beasts.

A combination of factors made this ferocious beast exceptionally difficult to deal with.

Li Yuan was also very wary of it before.

But today, I don't feel that panicked.

According to official guidelines, only those at least at the seventh rank of martial arts can deal with B-level ferocious beasts.

A martial arts master at the sixth rank can save their life from it and is guaranteed not to die if they encounter it.

However, Li Yuan had already made his own assessment of its strength based on its recent attack.

He drew his longsword and charged directly at its attack.

The little rock bear probably didn't expect Li Yuan to retaliate like this.

Class B ferocious beasts can roam freely in most places.

Most of the ferocious beasts that can be rated as A-level are top-level overlords in their respective regions.

The appearance of these ferocious beasts is not a talent bestowed upon them by their race.

In most cases, their appearance is due to an accident.

Perhaps it stepped into some treasure land and swallowed some strange and precious gem.

Or rather, it just so happens to mutate in a positive direction.

Among the ferocious beasts one can usually encounter, B-rank is basically the peak.

Adult rock bear cubs almost all deserve the title of B-class ferocious beast.

However, at this moment, it did not gain any advantage from Li Yuan.

It is indeed fast and powerful; a B-grade ferocious beast has the ability to fight against a seventh-grade martial artist.

After Li Yuan was promoted to the sixth rank, he was already able to compete with it.

They were a bit slower, but managed to catch up by using the Cloud Step and exploiting their weaknesses.

The most crucial factor is strength.

Little Rock Bear hadn't expected that Li Yuan would dare to challenge it to a direct contest of strength.

With his long sword, he fought against it.

The physical enhancement brought about by "Tian Gang Body Refinement" allowed Li Yuan to be in no way inferior in terms of strength.

This beast must have been an accident; instead of competing with it in terms of speed and agility, the humans directly challenged it in terms of strength.

This little rock bear has fought with martial artists more than once in Wugang City.

Although it cannot think like a human, it can still learn from experience.

At this moment, all the experience and lessons it had accumulated were utterly useless in front of Li Yuan.

The blade slashed at it repeatedly as Li Yuan confronted it head-on, feeling the power of the sixth rank he had gained.

One move after another, and he found himself enjoying himself immensely.

Advancing to the sixth rank of martial arts brought about a significant improvement.

After exchanging five blows, the little rock bear began looking for an opportunity to escape.

When it fought against Li Yuan, it shared the same feeling as Gu Yu.

It's a feeling of frustration and suffocation.

Li Yuan seized upon every flaw, making it tremble with fear even when it moved its body slightly.

Furthermore, Li Yuan's swordsmanship was continuous yet unpredictable.

If they continued fighting, Little Rock Bear felt he would die there.

The resilience of ferocious beasts is usually greater than that of human martial artists.

However, Li Yuan's attacks showed no sign of decreasing power or speed; on the contrary, they posed an increasingly greater threat to it.

In an instant, the little rock bear chose to escape rather than suffer the wounds inflicted by Li Yuan's blade.

They fled in panic, leaving behind a trail of blood.

It's not easy to take the life of a B-level ferocious beast.

To have achieved this level of skill at the sixth rank of martial arts is already quite impressive.

According to the official warning, a sixth-rank martial artist is lucky if he can escape with all his might.

In most cases, if you see a Class B ferocious beast, you should immediately head for a safe house.

The little rock bear screamed as it left, leaving behind its bloodstains.

With such a powerful and ferocious beast escaping, other ferocious beasts lurking in the shadows abandoned their plans to ambush it.

Li Yuan entered the factory, looked around, and then began operating the machinery.

Li Yuan felt that opening these large machines would not be easy.

These machines have been idle for a long time, so it's really not easy to get them moving.

Even if we bring in operators, they probably won't have enough strength to rotate it.

If a martial artist is brought in, it can indeed be turned around.

However, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
