  "Of course!"

  Upon hearing his flattering words, the woman's attitude took a complete 180 compared to the time she interacted with Su Lang.

  After taking out a pen and paper, the woman handed it to Yang Shi while sneakily coming into contact with Yang Shi's hand.

  "Haha."

  Yang Shi cackled slightly before taking the pen and paper to create an official contract for the bet.

  After signing it, he handed it to Su Lang and said, "It's your turn, Genius!"

  When the surrounding people heard his mocking words, they could not help but burst into gales of laughter again.

  "Heh."

  Su Lang revealed a cunning smile before he signed his name on the contract.

  "That should do for the contract."

  Yang Shi did not even look to make sure that Su Lang signed his name before he exclaimed, "I will look forward to seeing you run around the Union House naked. Hahaha!"

  "Touché."

  Su Lang revealed a faint smile, "I will also look forward to that. In fact, the time has already arrived for you to do so!"

  "What!?"

  Yang Shi and the onlookers stood petrified and sneered.

  At this moment.

  'System, break through now!'

  With a single thought, Su Lang's body suddenly released a wave of energy that was unique to breaking through.

  Since the medicinal properties given by the original host's parents had not yet been fully absorbed by Su Lang's body, his cultivation speed managed to surpass that of a genius with peerless talent.

  Although it had only been three to four hours since he broke through to the Initial Boday Tempering Realm, the small white figure in his mind had already begun radiating with a golden light.

  If Su Lang did not waste time to chat with Yang Shi, he would have long since broken through to the next small realm.

  "Eh? What is this feeling?"

  "Could that trash actually have broken through to the Intermediate Body Tempering Realm?"

  "Impossible! That isn't even funny as a joke!"

  "..."

  Although the onlookers realized that Su Lang had indeed broken through, they nevertheless forced themselves to deny that fact. After all, such a feat had never been accomplished, let alone by a useless trash like Su Lang.

  "What the hell?!"

  Yang Shi looked at Su Lang in utter disbelief.

  "Hey, you have to admit defeat now."

  Su Lang waved the contract with a smile on his face and said bluntly, "Please give me 50 gold coins from the bet and run three laps around the Union House naked. Oh and don't forget to shout 'I am a genius' while you run around. Make sure to do it loud enough for everyone to hear~"

  "No, that should not be possible. How did you break through to the Intermediate Body Tempering Realm so quickly?"

  Yang Shi's face turned bleach pale, unable to accept the results of the bet. He radiated with anger and said, "You must have cheated! What kind of method did you use to break through a minor realm in such a short time?"

  "You're claiming that I cheated? Just open your blind eyes for once!"

  Su Lang smiled coldly and placed his hand on the crystal by the reception window. Immediately after, two white specks of light began illuminating within the crystal.

  CHAPTER 9 - SUFFICIENT FUNDS

  "There's two specks of light.... He really has broken through to the Intermediate Body Tempering Realm!"

  "Su Lang must have been hiding his true strength. He could definitely have broken through to the Intermediate Body Tempering Realm a while ago."

  "Wait a minute.... Then why did he only come to receive the Initial Body Tempering Realm allowance now?"

  "If he had broken through to the Initial Body Tempering Realm a while ago, why did he not come to receive his reward for his breakthrough earlier? How could anyone have endured the reward? This must be fake!"

  "But the fluctuation of Spiritual Qi emitted from his body proved that he had indeed broken through. After all, I have seen this fluctuation happen many times before. There's no way that my eyes were mistaken!"

  "In that case, he must really have broken through to the Intermdiate Body Tempering Realm! Yang Shi has suffered a huge loss!"

  "How unfortunate for Yang Shi to encounter such a ridiculous thing."

  "The bet would not have taken place if Yang Shi didn't mock him in the first place."

  "Haha, you're right."

  "..."

  Everyone fell into discussions of their own before shifting the gazes towards Yang Shi.

  "Sir Quasi Martial Cultivator, could you possibly be thinking of dismissing the bet?"

  Su Lang smiled coldly at Yang Shi and said, "Please give me 50 gold coins and fulfill the second part of the bet."

  "God damn it! So what if you have broken through to the Intermediate Body Tempering Realm?"

  "It is also a normal occurrence for someone to break through to that realm at the age of twenty!"

  "Su Lang, you are still nothing but a piece of trash in my presence! Humph!"

  Yang Shi lifted out a Spirit Stone from his pocket reluctantly before pushing it towards Su Lang's chest and taking his leave.

  As for running three laps around the Union House naked while shouting, 'I am a genius', he simply could not bear to do such a thing nor did he dare to do so either.

  If he ends up doing that, not only would his reputation be ruined, but the entire Yang Family would end up be ridiculed by others.

  At that time, Yang Shi would have to face a miserable fate.

  Therefore, he would rather give Su Lang a Low-Grade Spirit Stone worth 100 gold coins than fulfill the second bet.

  "You better dismiss the second part of the bet after receiving this Spirit Stone. Anyway, you better not let me bump into you again in the future."

  Su Lang looked at Yang Shi's departing figure and sneered disdainfully.

  Then, Su Lang turned to look at the woman with heavy makeup on the other side of the reception window and said, "Hey, old witch. Quickly hand over the reward for breaking through to the Intermediate Body Tempering Realm. Update my identity card while you're at it too."

  This unexpected incident was all instigated by this woman in the first place. While he may have earned himself an item worth 100 gold coins, he was still extremely cross with her previous actions.

  "Humph!"

  The woman with heavy makeup threw out 20 gold coins and Su Lang's identity card in a huff before stating, "Don't forget that you're simply an ordinary person. Since you have offended Young Master Yang, you're going to die for sure. Now, get out of the way and stop blocking the rest of the line.

  "Tsk, tsk. With that attitude of yours, you're bound to die sooner or later anyways!"

  Su Lang's eyes were filled with ridicule. He stored back the Spirit Stone, gold coins, and his identity card before taking his leave from the main hall of the Union House.

  "It seems that Yang Shi has some sort of backing."

  On the way, Su Lang spun the Spirit Stone in his hand.

  The Spirit Stone, a unique energy crystal, was known as a natural treasure produced after the recovery of Spiritual Qi. It served as an important resource for one's cultivation.

  Other than that, Spirit Stones could be cut or ground according to one's wishes. During that process, they could also be cut and polished into the standard size and used as a high-end currency.

  Under normal circumstanes, Spirit Stones would only circulate between martial cultivators or powerhouses of the higher realms.

  Furthermore, Spirit Stone were also divide into different grades depending on its quality, which included low-grade, middle-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.

  Low-Grade Spirit Stones were usually worth 100 gold coins. This exchange rate remained consistent no matter where you went in the world.

  The Spirit Stone currently in Su Lang's hand was one of low grade.

  "After exchanging this Spirit Stone for gold coins, I would have a t
otal of 161 gold coins. It would be more than enough to raise the One-Click Cultivation Function to Level 2. Hahaha!"

  Imagining how his cultivation speed would double without having the need to do anything else, Su Lang shivered with utmost excitement as he suddenly had the urge to roar towards the sky.

  Suddenly.

  [Host, the system can provide functions for storing your currency, exchanging items for currency, and withdrawing your funds — all of which are free to use.]

  "What?!"

  Su Lang jumped in astonishment upon hearing those words.

  By utilizing the functions of the system, not only would he be able to spend less time looking for the best exchange rates, but he would not even need to worry about the processing fees.

  "System, immediately exchange this Spirit Stone for gold coins!"

  With a thought, the Spirit Stone vanished form Su Lang's hands.

  In the upper left corner of the mysterious black space, the symbol of a gold coin popped up, followed by a note of 100.

  [Ding! Exchange successful, does the Host wish to deposit the rest of the gold coins into the system storage?]

  "Deposit!"

  With a single nod and acknowledgment, the gold coins in his bag disappeared and the number of gold coins in the storage of the system increased to a total of 161.

  CHAPTER 10 - SECOND LEVEL OF THE ONE CLICK CULTIVATION FUNCTION

  "I have finally made 161 gold coins!"

  Su Lang licked his lips in excitement and exclaimed, "System, upgrade the One Click Cultivation Function!"

  [Ding! Consuming 100 gold coins. Upgraded One Click Cultivation Function to level 2. Increased cultivation speed to two times the basic speed!]

  At that moment, the golden stream lingering around the small white figure in Su Lang's mind accelerated two times faster than before.

  "I can feel the tremendous amounts of Spiritual Qi surging through my body!"

  Sensing the Spritual Qi constantly flowing throughout his body, Su Lang could not help but stretched out his arms and shout with utmost joy, drunken by his sudden increase in power.

  With his cultivation speed now doubled, the estimated five days had been shortened by half.

  At this moment, it would only take Su Lang two days at most to achieve his goal of becoming a Standard Martial Cultivator, an achievement that most people would require decades to accomplish!

  "This feels great!"

  Su Lang could not help but reveal a bright smile as he stared at the small white figure in the black space being surrounded by a flash of golden light.

  Su Lang asked with great expectations, "System, at this rate, how much time would I need to break through to the Advanced Body Tempering Realm?"

  [The Host will only need four hours to break through to the Advanced Body Tempering Realm.]

  "Four hours?! That's less than the duration of an entire afternoon!"

  Su Lang was incomparably delighted and spoke to himself, "By the time I discover the stronghold of the Broken Axe Hunting Group, I would have already broken through to the next small realm!"

  Since he already sold his house, Su Lang naturally had nowhere else to go. Thus, he decided to scout out the base of the Broken Axe Hunting Group for the time being.

  With an incomparably happy mood, Su Lang sat on the number one spirit public bus that was headed toward the city gate.

  Most of the people who rode on the number one spirit public bus had plans to hunt outside the city.

  Only after entering the Body Tempering Realm would one dare to explore the closest area filled with F-class Vicious Beasts.

  Hence, most of the people on the bus had already broken through to the Body Tempering Realm. Su Lang blended in with the group of people and tried his best to remain low-key.

  Half an hour later, the spirit public bus finally arrived at the terminal.

  At this time, half of the people on the bus were had stepped out. It could be seen that even the martial cultivators who had entered Body Tempering did not dare to go out and hunt yet.

  After getting off the bus, Su Lang noticed an extremely tall barrier reaching into the sky.

  This barrier towered two thousand meters tall into the clouds, comparable to the Union House of the League of Martial Cultivators.

  Furthermore, the thickness of the barrier was also quite astonishing. It was as if an entire mountain range had separated the city from the outside world.

  In addition to the size of the barrier, a large number of array runes were carved on the barrier. These array runes not only had defensive properties, but also offensive capabilities — all of which were extremely powerful.

  Judging from the efforts placed into creating this barrier, however, one could deduce just how strong the Vicious Beasts in the outside world were.

  Following a group of people who left the city, Su Lang arrived at a large hall.

  As expected, the hall — otherwise known as the City Gate Hall —also belonged to the League of Martial Cultivators.

  The City Gate Hall function as a sort of trading market for martial cultivators. Aside from its function of selling maps, the hall also served as a place to sell and purchase items. While one may sell off the items gained from their expeditions such as materials of the Vicious Beasts and even heavenly treasures, they could also purchase medicine, weapons, and armor from the hall.

  Apart from that, the main street outside the City Gate Hall was also filled with private stalls that sought to maintain their business by selling all kinds of items.

  Intrigued by the bustling place, Su Lang walked along the street and looked around the area.

  "Selling maps! Selling maps over here!"

  A middle-aged martial cultivator of the Initial Body Tempering Realm noticed Su Lang and shouted in his direction, "The latest version of the map had only been updated two days ago. Young man, you should buy a copy for yourself!"

  "In that case, I'll take a copy."

  Without any experience in the hunting grounds, Su Lang needed a map to reference. Otherwise, he would be lost once he left the city.

  "Hehe, it will cost one gold coin."

  The middle-aged man revealed a cunning smile as he handed him a map.

  "One gold coin? Do you think I'm stupid?"

  Su Lang shook his head speechlessly and stated, "One silver coin. Do you still want to sell it or not? There will certainly be many others who are interested in selling maps."

  With that, he was just about to walk towards the next stall.

  "Alas, little brother, don't go!"

  The middle-aged man's smile froze as he suggested, "Two silver coins, that's the lowest I'm willing to go!"

  "Two silver coins is fine too."

  Su Lang halted in his steps and threw out two silver coins before saying, "But I want to know something."

  "Speak. I'll tell you everything I know."

  The middle-aged man handed the map to Su Lang with a smile.

  Su Lang took the map and asked, "Do you know where the stronghold of the Broken Axe Hunting Group is located in the territory of the F-class Wind Wolves?"

  "The stronghold of the Broken Axe Hunting Group? That I do know."

  The middle-aged man's expression suddenly changed as he spoke, "Young man, this must be your first time here, correct?"

  "Yes."

  Su Lang nodded in delight and continued, "Tell me everything you know about this particular stronghold."

  CHAPTER 11 - UNDYING RESENTMENT

  "Then I'll tell you."

  The middle-aged man said, "The territory of F-class Wind Wolves was originally a very good hunting location that was very suitable for us Body Tempering Realm cultivators."

  "Later on, however, a relatively precious medicinal herb appeared in that pace. Thus, it was quickly seized by the Broken Axe Hunting Group.

  "The Broken Axe Hunting Group — notorious for its vicious actions — did not allow anyone other than their own members to get their hands on those herbs."

>   "Some martial cultivators who attempted to hunt for those herbs were even brutally murdered by their members."

  "Soon enough, that incident resulted in the satisfaction of the public. Some people reported it to the League of Martial Cultivators, but for some reason, it ended up being suppressed."

  "According to the information I gained, the Broken Axe Hunting Group as a backer... an extremely strong one. Despite digging further into the situation, I have yet to figure out the faction that the backer belongs to."

  "So, what about the stronghold of the Broken Axe Hunting Group?"

  Su Lang asked thoughtfully, "Are there any martial cultivators of the Mortal Realm guarding that place?"

  "Suprisingly, there is actually none."

  "The middle-aged man lowered his voice and continued, "At the end of the day, that place is only an F-class area. Thus, the troops stationed there are mostly Quasi Martial Cultivators."

  "Since we have confirmed the existence of the strong backer behind the Broken Axe Hunting Group, even Standard Martial Cultivators would not dare to provoke them."

  "If there really was a Standard Martial Cultivator who entered their region, I'm sure that they would welcome him in and treat him well."

  "Hey, boss, how much are you selling this knife for?"

  A voice suddenly sounded from the side. Hearing that voice, the middle-aged man quickly went to greet the customers.

  "Quasi Martial Cultivators?"

  Su Lang murmured as he left the stall, "System, how long would it take for me to become a Standard Martial Cultivator?"

  [From the Intermediate Body Tempering Realm to being a Standard Martial Cultivator, the Host would need to break through a total of three minor realms and one major realm, which includes the Advanced Body Tempering Realm, the Peak Body Tempering Realm, the Quasi Martial Cultivator Realm, and the Standard Martial Cultivator Realm.]

  For the majority of humanity, they might not even be able to break through these four realms and become a Standard Martial Cultivator even if they devoted their entire lifetime to cultivation.

  [Host, you will need 51 hours to break through to the Mortal Realm and become a Standard Martial Cultivator.]
