“Andrew Warren really hit the jackpot this time…” The group of candidate constables surrounded Andrew Warren, taking turns to count and discuss, unable to hide the envy on their faces.
Like Andrew Warren, today was their first time encountering the Great Spear Fist.
Now, they couldn’t even complete the whole set of moves, while Andrew Warren had already directly cultivated Bright Force—how could they not be envious?
Laymen watch for the spectacle, insiders look for the skill.
In the eyes of the veteran constable Eric Clark, Andrew Warren’s execution of this fist technique had already shifted from initial awkwardness to current mastery.
And to achieve such a transformation, Andrew Warren had practiced the Great Spear Fist less than six times in total!
The last person in the Nanping constable office to master the Great Spear Fist so quickly was Sheriff Grant, who needed a full eighteen rounds of practice!
Even at its simplest, the Great Spear Fist is a technique at the Force Refinement level.
For Andrew Warren to reach mastery in just six rounds—how extraordinary must his martial talent be?
The most astonishing part was that he had practiced the Great Spear Fist six times in a row without showing a hint of fatigue!
The Force Refinement stage is about fully integrating the vital energy hidden within the body into the muscles, constantly accumulating it and transforming it into internal force.
In the Nanping constable office, the burliest and strongest Iron Constable eats thirty pounds of meat a day, and even then, the energy he converts only allows him to practice the Great Spear Fist ten times in a row.
Andrew Warren is tall and thin, not looking like someone with abundant energy, yet he could easily practice the Great Spear Fist six times in a row—this defied common sense.
“Truly a prodigy!”
Eric Clark’s limited experience couldn’t discern the true source of this anomaly, so he could only attribute everything to Andrew Warren’s extraordinary talent and sigh in admiration.
All the discussions and words of praise from the crowd reached Andrew Warren’s ears.
He appeared to be immersed in a state of total absorption, practicing the fist over and over, but in reality, his mind was clear, and he caught every word from the outside world.
It was just that his current state felt rather mysterious, making him unable to resist focusing his mind, pondering and studying, reluctant to stop.
After practicing the fist repeatedly, Andrew Warren realized that the sounds he’d heard and the scenes he’d seen earlier were not hallucinations.
He had truly awakened the ‘Strongest Body’!
His ability to quickly comprehend the Great Spear Fist and practice it six times in a row without fatigue was all thanks to the Strongest Body.
And its benefits went far beyond that.
Through continuous practice and muscle movement, Andrew Warren discovered that the effect of practicing the Great Spear Fist once might be equivalent to others practicing it three to five times!
This was probably why he could quickly develop Bright Force and master the Great Spear Fist so rapidly.
Andrew Warren was not yet certain about this.
He needed more experiments and comparisons to confirm it in the end.
He slowly finished the routine, feeling the waves of heat spreading through more than a hundred muscles in his body, nourishing them silently.
“How do you feel?
Are you weak all over, legs shaking?”
Eric Clark watched Andrew Warren closely from the side. Seeing his eyes clear up, he immediately asked.
Andrew Warren’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly tensed and relaxed the muscles in his thighs and calves, pretending his legs were weak and powerless, and said awkwardly, “My legs are weak, and my stomach feels empty too.
Second Grandpa, does practicing the Great Spear Fist consume that much?”
Seeing this, Mr. Clark secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If this kid could practice the Great Spear Fist seven times in a row and still act like nothing happened, he’d have to seriously study what this kid was made of.
But now, seeing his legs weak and trembling, he knew that practicing the Great Spear Fist seven times in a row had indeed taken a toll on him.
This was still within the normal range.
“Hmph!
The Great Spear Fist is, after all, a technique that can cultivate Bright Force. Ordinary people can practice it at most twice a day. You’ve done it seven times in a row, and you can still stand—already impressive!”
Eric Clark put on a stern face and scolded Andrew Warren.
As soon as Andrew Warren heard this, his legs gave out and he sat down on the ground, grimacing, “Second Grandpa, now that you mention it, I can’t even stand up.”
His reaction was mainly to cover up his earlier outstanding performance.
He had noticed that a few colleagues were looking at him very differently than before.
There was envy, and even a hint of barely concealed jealousy.
When they saw him come back to his senses, those colleagues turned their faces away, and for a moment, no one took the initiative to talk to him.
But after he ‘showed weakness’ and deliberately made a fool of himself, the colleagues’ expressions eased up.
Someone started joking with Andrew Warren: “Andrew Warren, with stamina like that, how are you going to handle a wife in the future?”
“You brat, you didn’t know your limits, now your legs are jelly, huh?”
“Get out of here!”
Andrew Warren laughed and cut off their teasing.
On the side, Eric Clark saw the joking die down, swept his gaze over the group, and reminded them, “What happened to Andrew Warren today is a case of losing control while practicing, leading to excessive depletion.
Luckily, he’s just got weak legs and an empty stomach. Go home, eat more meat, and take some tonics, and he’ll recover.
Some people, if they keep practicing, might even deplete their vital energy and damage their foundation!
If that happens, their lifespan will be shortened. Someone who could have lived to fifty or sixty might lose ten or twenty years—this is not uncommon!
You all need to remember this. Otherwise, if you regret it after your life is cut short, it’ll be too late!”
“Yes!”
Everyone responded in unison.
