William Harper had a huge complaint in his heart and couldn’t help but think: “Auntie Li looks like this and she’s the village belle? The women in this village must all be pretty ugly!”

He instinctively picked up the card, only to hear the villagers’ exclamations and angry shouts.

William Harper actually wanted to explain, but seeing the villagers swarming over, each with a ferocious face, waving hoes, steel forks, carrying poles... he was deeply convinced that if he stayed, he’d definitely be beaten to death.

So William Harper turned and ran, even faster than a rabbit!

As he sprinted wildly, William Harper grumbled to himself: “Damn, these guys who’ve been secluded for thousands of years must all be mentally deranged. What the hell is this game doing? They even killed the village belle Auntie Li? What’s wrong with their aesthetics! Aren’t quest-giving NPCs supposed to be unkillable? Their game designers must have hired some third-rate web novelists with zero knowledge of game mechanics...”

It had been a long time since William Harper had run like a rabbit. He barely managed to escape the village, chased halfway up the mountain by the villagers, before finally shaking off the “righteously indignant” mob out for revenge for “village belle Auntie Li.”

Panting heavily, he slumped against a big tree, tossing and turning, cursing out every insult in his vocabulary until he ran out of things to say. Only then did he suddenly notice something strange.

His original body was absolute trash. Forget running halfway up a mountain—just sprinting on flat ground for half a minute would put his running skill on cooldown, and it wouldn’t recover for at least two hours. Plus, that lousy skill could only be used two or three times a day at most...

But now, after William Harper had sprinted halfway up a mountain, although he was breathing heavily—mainly from fright—he’d barely used any stamina at all. He was still full of energy, and could easily run over ten more mountains without a problem.

After calming down a bit, William Harper couldn’t help but curiously raise his hands to examine this “game character” body of his.

The white-robed scholar looked only seventeen or eighteen, a handsome young man—neither tall nor fat, with a lean, well-built frame and strong, agile limbs.

He first gave a mighty leap, feeling as if he were soaring through the clouds, jumping straight up three to five meters high—enough to scare Jordan into turning into LeBron. Even William Harper himself was so startled he lost his balance, fell down, and landed hard on his butt. Luckily, with his current physical strength, a fall from that height only hurt for a moment and didn’t cause any injury.

“Damn!”

William Harper lightly punched and kicked, feeling that this body was completely different from his original one—astonishingly strong, with flexibility, agility, speed, endurance, and strength all rivaling the top athletes—or perhaps even surpassing them!

Since William Harper had used the character card, the strange watch was naturally gone from his hand. With a thought, a circular light screen appeared before his eyes, listing all the information about this body. Clearly, this body had a smart system pre-installed, providing such a user-friendly function.

The data displayed on the light screen was extremely detailed. The Minor Essence Technique didn’t provide any martial arts value; all of the white-robed scholar’s impressive 5.9 martial arts value came entirely from the Boneless Soft Fist.
