When I first entered high school, the system insisted that I was destined to be an emperor in my lat

Seeing this scene.

Sitting opposite him, Jiang Jianguo nodded slightly, picked up the bottle of bulk liquor in front of him, took a sip, and his eyes were full of satisfaction.

My son has really grown up.

They've grown up!

Liu Aifang was also very happy, but seeing her son busy serving meat to his sister while he only ate vegetables, her eyes welled up with tears.

She quickly stood up, picked up a large piece of meat with her chopsticks, and placed it heavily in Jiang Feng's bowl.

"Son, you eat too!"

"We can't just focus on your sister; you need to take care of yourself too!"

She sighed silently to herself.

My son is so sensible, it breaks my heart.

He must know that he is not talented enough, and that it would be a waste for him to eat more exotic beast meat, so he saved all the meat for his genius sister!

Ugh.

In fact, she and Jiang Jianguo never resented their son for being unsuccessful!

The elderly couple were just ordinary people from the lowest rungs of society, with no talent whatsoever in martial arts.

If the son is of average talent, then he has inherited their mediocrity, which is perfectly normal!

On the contrary, Shen Weilan's parents were both renowned third-rank martial artists back then!

It's perfectly normal for her to be more qualified than her son.

in contrast.

Both of them have felt guilty all these years.

If it weren't for their incompetence as parents, unable to afford those expensive blood and qi tonics and high-level exotic beast meat, how could their son have suffered so much injustice at school?

at this time.

Jiang Feng was unaware of the rich emotions his mother was experiencing.

He put the piece of the strange beast meat in the bowl into his mouth, chewed it gently, and swallowed it.

next second.

A pleasant system notification sound instantly popped into my mind!

[Ding! Weak energy intake detected.]

[Qi and Blood Value +1!]

Jiang Feng's eyes suddenly lit up.

Holy crap?

I only ate a piece of pork and gained 1 point of health/vital energy?!

He immediately sped up the cooking process.

[Qi and Blood Value +1!]

[Qi and Blood Value +1!]

Wait until the meal is finished.

Jiang Feng checked the system panel and was surprised to find that it had actually increased his health points by a full 5!

That's a full 5 points!

Keep in mind that for the average high school student, this is almost equivalent to the level they would achieve by getting up early and working hard every day for several years!

A quasi-martial artist's maximum health is only 10 points!

in fact.

If an average student could extract 0.01 units of qi and blood from the meat of a low-quality beast like the herbivorous boar after eating it, that would be considered an extraordinary talent.

After all, it's not like you can absorb 100% of what you eat and convert it into qi and blood!

however.

Jiang Feng not only possesses an unparalleled imperial-grade aptitude, but he has also cultivated the domineering and incomparable imperial-grade technique, the Burning Heaven Imperial Scripture!

His absorption efficiency is ten thousand times that of an ordinary person!

Even scraps of exotic beast meat can yield a few drops of oil!

After dinner.

Liu Aifang cleared the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash them.

Jiang Jianguo wiped his mouth, then solemnly took out two small glass bottles from his pocket.

The bottle contained a thick, blood-red liquid.

Basic Qi and Blood Elixir!

He gently pushed the medicine in front of Jiang Feng and Shen Weilan, one bottle for each of them.

"There are only three months left until the martial arts college entrance examination."

Jiang Jianguo looked at the two children, his voice low but carrying an undeniable power.

"This period is the most crucial sprint period in your lives."

"From now on, I will provide each of you with one bottle of Qi and Blood Elixir per week!"

These words were spoken.

Jiang Feng stared wide-eyed at his father in disbelief.

"dad!"

"Where did you get so much money?"

A basic Qi and Blood tonic costs 3,000 yuan per bottle on the market.

If each of them drinks one bottle a week, that's six thousand yuan!

After four weeks in a month, that's a full 24,000 yuan!

But Lao Jiang's monthly salary, at most, is only 12,000 yuan!

Sitting next to him, Shen Weilan looked at Uncle Jiang in shock as well.

"Uncle, one bottle a week is too expensive."

In the past, although the family bought medicine, they only bought one bottle for each of the two children once a month.

Moreover, because Jiang Feng's aptitude was really mediocre, drinking this potion was like throwing a stone into the sea, as if he hadn't drunk it at all.

After drinking it for three whole years, my blood and qi levels barely reached 6.1.

in contrast.

In the school's diagnostic test last month, Shen Weilan's blood energy value had already reached an astonishing 9.8!

Just 0.2 points away from officially becoming a quasi-martial artist!

Now that we're suddenly increasing it to one bottle a week, how can our family possibly afford it?

Looking at the shocked expressions on his children's faces.

Jiang Jianguo smiled nonchalantly, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes crinkling together.

"fine."

"Your mother and I have been saving money these past two years by living frugally."

"We can afford to support you for three months, so you can drink without worry."

in fact.

Jiang Jianguo lied.

There's no savings at home.

To send these two money-devouring beasts to martial arts high school, our family's savings have long been emptied.

During this period, every evening after finishing his get off work at the state-owned enterprise, he would drive his old, beat-up secondhand car to work as a ride-hailing driver, often without even having dinner, and wouldn't return until two or three in the morning.

Even Liu Aifang, who works as a stock clerk in a supermarket.

She also secretly took on a part-time job unloading goods for people at the farmers' market in the early morning.

That's what it's like to be a parent.

As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I would rather exhaust myself than let my child suffer.

Shen Weilan is a very intelligent girl.

She looked at Jiang's father's bloodshot eyes and listened to the sound of dishes being washed coming from the kitchen.

She understood everything instantly.

A strong sense of sorrow and guilt welled up in my heart instantly.

"Uncle Jiang..."

Shen Weilan's voice trembled slightly as she pushed the bottle of Qi and Blood potion in front of her back.

"This medicine is too expensive; I can't accept it."

"I was never... I was never one of you..."

The words "biological daughter" were not uttered yet.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

A slightly angry voice suddenly came from the kitchen.

Liu Aifang, still holding a dripping rag, strode out and, without a word, shoved the bottle of medicine back into Shen Weilan's hand.

"A gentle ripple!"

Liu Aifang looked at her with gentle yet firm eyes.

"From the moment you stepped into this home at the age of five, Lao Jiang and I have long regarded you as our own daughter!"

"Jiang Feng has something in this house."

"You definitely need one too!"

"Don't talk about biological children or anything like that! Don't ever say such distant things again!"

Hearing this unreasonable favoritism...

Shen Weilan bit her lower lip tightly, and her eyes finally turned completely red.

A warm tear fell onto the back of my hand with a soft plop.

In this highly competitive martial arts world with clearly defined class distinctions.

This unconditional family love is the warmest fortress in her heart.

"Thank you... Aunt Liu, Uncle Jiang."

Shen Weilan clutched the bottle of Qi and Blood potion tightly in her palm, her voice choked with emotion.

Jiang Feng sat beside her, looking at his sister with red eyes, and then at his parents whose faces were weathered but whose smiles were warm.

He made a silent vow in his heart!

In this life, he is there.

The Jiang family will surely stand at the pinnacle of this blue planet!
