Among the six attributes, his Power, Agility, and Constitution had improved significantly. Among them, his Constitution had increased the most, reaching the threshold of a Professional with 2.0 points. At the same time, Qi D appeared in his skills column, which meant that the rumored Qi had been produced in Yan Chong’s body.
Finally, Yan Chong became a professional and obtained his first profession—Knight. In the Endless Mainland, he was also known as a Black Iron Knight. Although it was meager, Yan Chong could still feel a warm feeling adhering to his muscles and organs, easing his fatigue.
If the muscle damage caused by exercise usually took 72 hours to recover, then with the presence of Qi, this kind of light injury only needed a few hours to completely recover.
“What a wondrous thing!” Yan Chong narrowed his eyes as he sighed deeply. However, Yan Chong could not control his Qi. It originated from the breathing technique. It quietly existed within the body, unable to move. It could only passively nourish the body or strengthen the body’s explosive power and defense. As time passed, this bit of Qi became less and less, about to disappear.
However, Yan Chong was not worried. After copying the Grade B Knight’s breathing technique, the relevant understanding and comprehension followed. This was how Grade D’s Qi was like. It could only be converted by consuming large amounts of food or eating high-calorie food. Once it was used up, it would be gone. It would not be automatically generated and he had to repeat these steps.
After increasing the upper limit of the Qi in the body and reaching the peak of Grade D, professionals would have to consider condensing the Qi in their body. Once they condensed their Qi and broke through to Grade C, they could freely control the Qi in their body. It could even pass through their skin and adhere to their body, forming a protective layer of Qi. If one were to master the technique, one could even fly.
At that time, although the production of Qi still depended on food and breathing techniques, professionals could preserve it at the most crucial moment without wasting the Qi in their bodies.
“Well—the feeling of fullness is gone again. Although I’m not very hungry now, I guess the food will be digested again soon.” Yan Chong rubbed his stomach in distress. He was very satisfied with his well-defined abdominal muscles. However, he was not mentally prepared for the increase in appetite.
The constitution with a 2.0 points not only included the endurance and recovery ability of the bones and muscles, but it also included the function of the internal organs—cardiopulmonary capacity, digestive capacity, metabolic capacity, and so on. This was a comprehensive evolution, and there was also the enhancement of the bloodline. After becoming a Silver Race, its potential had also been greatly enhanced.
Even though 2.0 was twice that of 1.0, humans were three-dimensional animals. The increase in a single dimension could result in a chain reaction that needed to be multiplied by three. Therefore, it was not surprising that a warrior who had twice the recovery, defense, and endurance of an ordinary person could fight ten people at once. If not for the increase in talent, it would be impossible for him to become a professional in just two hours.
From the current situation, after becoming a knight, Yan Chong’s appetite had increased by seven to ten times. This also meant that his living expenses had increased by nearly ten times.
What kind of concept was this? Yan Chong’s family could be considered middle-class. His parents had been away on business for a long time, and they gave him a monthly allowance of three thousand yuan. He did not live from paycheck to paycheck, so he had saved up more than ten thousand yuan.
From the looks of it, his living expenses in the future would be 300 yuan per month. Then, his vault would become slightly more than 1,000 yuan. And that was under the premise that he only had to eat.
Based on the current prices, this bit of money could only be used for a month if used sparingly. Then, he would not be able to make ends meet.
“There are only two ways to go now.
“Firstly, I need to find a part-time job to earn some extra money. With my current physical fitness, I can probably earn at least a thousand yuan a day if I go to the construction site to carry bricks. That’s thirty thousand yuan a month. It’s enough for me to eat.
“But the problem is that I’m a third-year student. The college entrance examination is coming soon, so I don’t have the time.
“Secondly, the next time I transmigrate to the Endless Mainland, I must increase my strength as soon as possible and reach Class B as soon as possible!” Yan Chong pondered over the solution to the problem.
Although Yan Chong would not starve to death if his appetite remained the same with his current physical condition, he could no longer exercise with the breathing technique. Furthermore, while enduring extreme hunger, his bodily functions would slowly deteriorate until he returned to his normal level of 1.0.
During this process, he had to control his strength well and not unleash an extraordinary level. Otherwise, if he did not replenish his food in time, he would starve to death. In fact, a long period of hunger could even cause a Silver Race bloodline to degenerate.
However, as long as he reached Grade B, his appetite would return to that of an ordinary person. At that time, professionals would be able to absorb the energy of the world and refine it into their bodies to replenish their energy.
If he continued advancing, he might even reach a state of abstinence.
Although Advanced professionals could still eat large amounts of food, at that time, ordinary food would no longer be worthy of their attention. Eating would just become a habit. Only precious extraordinary ingredients could arouse their appetite.
Forget it, I’ll cross the bridge when the time comes. I don’t believe that I can starve myself! The conflicted thoughts only appeared in his mind for a short while before Yan Chong figured it out.
Looking at the time on his phone, it was already two in the morning. Yan Chong tidied up the place, took a shower and went to sleep.
Morning.
The chirping of birds could be heard as they flew past the window.
Yan Chong woke up with extreme hunger. He glanced at his phone. It was only 5: 30 and the sky was still dark.
“I woke up from hunger!” Yan Chong lay on the bed and stretched his back. Along with the crackling sound of his bones, he smiled helplessly. However, to his surprise, he only slept for three hours and was not sleepy at all. His mind was clear. “This is the effect of both constitution and mind reaching 2.0.” After thinking for a while, he found a suitable explanation.
Bang! Bang! Bang! There was a knock on the door. Yan Chong rushed out of bed and opened the door.
There was no one in front of the door. He looked around for a long time. Just as he was feeling a little creeped out, he seemed to have thought of something and immediately lowered his head. He saw the little kitten, Catherine, squatting on the ground and looking at him angrily without saying a word.
“Good morning, Catherine!” Yan Chong smiled apologetically and greeted Catherine.
“Hey, Yan Chong, I’m hungry!” Catherine said as she stared at him.
“Okay, okay. I’ll order now. Should I order from the same restaurant as yesterday? Do you think the taste of the Deep Sea Cod Rice is acceptable?”
“Yes, yes!” Catherine nodded her head and wagged her tail unconsciously. She seemed very satisfied with the cod rice.
He took out his phone and ordered 11 servings of cod rice. Yan Chong put down his phone and prepared to wash up. However, after taking two steps, Yan Chong suddenly thought of something and said to Catherine with a smile, “Hehe, come, come, let me show you a good treasure.”
