Chapter 417: The Most Ridiculous Training, Pain!

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

An active value of three thousand and five hundred, an active value of a whole three thousand and five hundred.

When Qin Fen and Fenghua Danyun’s palms came into contact with each other, everyone had many speculations toward his active value. There was even someone who guessed an insane number of two thousand active value, yet no one expected for Qin Fen’s active value to be three thousand and five hundred.

If a genius’s active value was three hundred, Qin Fen would be ten times a so-called genius! If a genius’s active value was five hundred, Qin Fen would be seven times a so-called genius!

Genius could no longer be used to describe Qin Fen.

Only “freak” could be the most suitable title for Qin Fen’s current state.

Is this the level of activity of Nirvana Marrow Transformation Great Inborn’s state? Caesar looked at Solomon who was next to him and their eyes were both filled with doubt and shock.

How big is the gap between Nirvana Marrow Transformation and Blood Transfusion Rebirth? Caesar and the others had made countless of inferences and guesses, but no one had imagined that the gap between the two would be this huge.

Three thousand and five hundred active value? Asura Fenghua Danyun re-evaluated Qin Fen from head to toe. What does this value mean?

“Head...” Caesar recovered from his shock and doubts and asked curiously, “After seeing Qin Fen’s active value, I am even more curious about what the Martial Madman’s active value was back then.”

Everyone nodded and their eyes revealed deep curiosity. What was the active value of that martial artist who is already at fifteen-star and is about to enter sixteen-star at such young age back then? To a certain extent, this value related directly to the possibilities of Qin Fen’s future victory over the Martial Madman.

With this question, Qin Fen also placed his gaze onto Fenghua Danyun’s delicate face. Ever since he knew that one’s active value could be tested, the Martial Madman’s value had always been hovering in his mind.

“Three thousand and five hundred...”

“What?” Caesar almost jumped up from shock. Qin Fen only has an active value of three thousand five hundred because he had done the Nirvana Marrow Transformation Great Inborn. Could it be that the Martial Madman had also gone through Nirvana Marrow Transformation back then?

The empty room echoed the exclamation of several young people.

If the Martial Madman’s active level was also this high, Qin Fen’s chances of winning would be reduced greatly.

“I didn’t say it clearly ah.” Fenghua Danyun looked at everyone’s surprised look and explained further, “Little Madman’s active level reached the peak of three thousand and five hundred after he went through six months of my special training here.”

Everyone gave a sigh of relief. The long pause in her sentence really could’ve scared people to death. The difference between someone who reached the peak after six months of special training and someone who had already reached the three thousand and five hundred peak without any training was not just as simple as one-and-a-half star-level.

“Even if he had gone through half a year of special training, the value of three thousand and five hundred...” Yang Lie shook his head gently as he praised, “His talent is terribly high.”

“Little Madman ah? His talent is pretty good ah.” Fenghua Danyun’s face showed a light of admiration, “I heard that when he was seventeen, he could already control his true energy oscillation ah. To think about it, he had already started to use true energy oscillation to enhance his physical fitness before he had even entered his fury phase of strength. Of course his active level would be high.”

At this moment, Qin Fen finally understood the important part that formed active levels. It could be said that under the stimulation of all the comprehensive strengths, the value will become higher and higher.

To have an extra year or two of true energy oscillation as compared to ordinary people, the change in bodily structure could be said to be a deepening of foundation. By the time the fury phase happened, this foundation could all be converted into the values of active level.

“Seventeen years old?” Yang Lie’s eyes twitched a few times. He had heard his elders talk about what true energy oscillation was when he was seventeen, but it was impossible for him to carry out the so-called true energy oscillation back then. This Martial Madman was indeed not an ordinary genius. He indeed had the trick of the trade to be nurtured exclusively by Sacred Martial Hall.

Seventeen years old, C aesar and Solomon exchanged a bitter smile. There was actually someone else besides Mars’ Shang Guan Chuan Qi who could perform the true energy oscillation with just a two-star strength and before he had entered his fury phase of strength.

Genius! The Martial Madman is a rare genius!

“Now that Little Madman is already a fifteen-star martial artist, I’m guessing that his active value should be even higher as his Nirvana Marrow Transformation was successful.” Fenghua Danyun looked like she was in serious thought, “I must find him to further develop him when I have the time.”

The crowd still hadn’t recovered from the surprise that the Martial Madman had performed true energy oscillation at the age of seventeen.

Everyone was clear that even a freak like Qin Fen only carried out true energy oscillation after the age of eighteen. The Martial Madman’s talent indeed made people envious.

“You’re all still admiring the time the Martial Madman performed his true energy oscillation ah?” Fenghua Danyun smiled as she shook her fair and slender index finger, “This really isn’t something worth admiring ah. Although I have not seen it, I have reasoned, according to my calculations, that there should still be other young martial artists in the world that are even more outstanding in this aspect. Who knows, he might be able to discover and control the oscillation of his true energy on the first day he comes into contact with martial dao with just a little bit of true energy.”

Caesar couldn’t seem to smile as he stared at Fenghua Danyun’s serious thinking face.

Solomon shook his head gently and sighed. On the first day he came into contact with martial dao? Just a little bit of true energy? And can even discover and control his true energy oscillation?

Arabian Nights! This ancient idiom flashed across the minds of almost all the young martial artists at the same time.

“If that’s the case ah...” Fenghua Danyun was still thinking very seriously. Her beautiful face had the gradient of excitement similar to fascinated scholars, “If this kind of person develops well, I’m afraid that he will be able to become a divine beast martial artist before he even reaches the age of thirty.”

Qinglong! This term flashed across Qin Fen’s mind immediately almost without any additional thinking.

Qinglong! Jupiter Qinglong who is the most mysterious among all divine beast martial artists! Qin Fen once again remembered the legend about Qinglong as well as Wang Ying’s guess that Qinglong’s identity was Qin Zhan.

If everything is really as speculated by Fenghua Danyun, the possibility that brother Qin Zhan had become divine beast martial artist Qinglong would be even greater! Qin Fen clenched his fists excitedly.

Regarding the speculation that Qinglong might be Qin Zhan, Qin Fen was even more certain that Qin Zhan could very possibly be Qinglong ever since he knew about the White Tiger’s death and Qinglong’s retreat.

Qin Fen could still remember the figure that wasn’t considered too tall and covered in blood that blocked him while chasing away the stray dogs during the times when he and his brother still depended on each other for livelihood.

Although he didn’t know why his brother left, Qin Fen could still remember that Qin Zhan had protected him again and again when he was a child.

“Little brother, big brother will definitely avenge whoever bullies you!!”

This sentence was once Qin Zhan’s mantra. Qin Fen had never forgotten that pair of eyes that flashed with unyielding battle intent.

“Kid, what are you thinking about ah?” Fenghua Danyun leaned toward Qin Fen’s face and stared at him with her glittery eyes, “Are you thinking about fighting Little Madman ah? There’s no use thinking about that ah, you should take the time to practice and develop more. The potential of your active value is the most shocking one I have ever seen ah.”

The most shocking? Several young martial artists showed a skeptical look collectively.

Qin Fen’s power and foundation were both on another level! Caesar and the others all recognized this. But if it was said that his active value was definitely the strongest, everyone had a trace of suspicion.

There was still one person who had not tested his active value! Xue Tian, who was holding a katana and standing on the sidelines leisurely; Xue Tian, who was recognized by everyone as the most horrifying talent with the same level of laziness!

Qin Fen also stared at Xue Tian with the same level of interest, What would this lazy genius’ active value be?

“What do you want me to do?” Xue Tian hugged his hands in front of his chest as if he was a weak lady in a dark alley that was blocked by a mob. He said with a somewhat exaggerated expression, “I would still like to keep a little secret of my own.”

Everyone had chills as they heard Xue Tian’s words. Not only did this kid have an amazing star-class strength, his ability to make people cringe grew a lot faster than his growth in star-class strength. Whoever battles against him in the future would be considered to have eight generations of bad luck. Even if they weren’t beaten to death by him, they would cringe to death by his words.

Fenghua Danyun came to Xue Tian with curiosity, “You really don’t want to let them see your active value ah?”

Xue Tian’s smile showed some embarrassment. He raised his hand to scratch the back of his head gently, “I’ve been compared with others here and there ever since I was a kid. To be honest, I am quite afraid of this. What’s there to compare? Every time I see kids being used by their parents to compare with others, I would feel sad for those children. Every child has their own specialty, why must they be put together by their parents, teachers, and schools to compare?”

Qin Fen looked at Xue Tian a little stunned, then nodded slowly as he understood how he felt.

It was easy for children to be compared with one another by parents, teachers, and schools. For a genius like Xue Tian, it was a given that he would often be used as a comparison against others.

It could be because of this comparison that Xue Tian had started to give off this lazy look so that others would be disappointed in him, not compared against.

“I don’t want to be compared to Qin Fen by the others again.” Xue Tian’s smile became very sincere, “There isn’t any meaning as to who wins or loses. Qin Fen and I are companions, not two people who have to have their scores differentiated and compared.”

Caesar evaluated Xue Tian again. It turned out that this genius still had a side that others didn’t know. His ways of thinking were much more mature than many people.

“Of course, if you insist on comparing me to Old Qin.” Xue Tian rubbed his chin as he looked at Qin Fen seriously, “I am still very interested in competing in the ability to chase girls.”

...

The shining image that Xue Tian had just built in the eyes of everyone collapsed completely in an instant. This guy’s brain was too active, no one could guess what his next sentence could be.

Qin Fen stepped back a few steps, and Caesar and the others followed. They left Xue Tian and Fenghua Danyun enough space to carry out the active value test.

The value could not be compared, but as a trainer, Fenghua Danyun must know Xue Tian’s value so that she could make future calculations according to his active value and develop corresponding training plans.

Di di... di di...

The sound of a series of electronic digital changes kept ringing from the Big Rock. Qin Fen was still curious about Xue Tian’s value, but he didn’t go forward to look at it.

As a friend, you must respect your friend’s request more than others.

The display on the Big Rock stopped changing. Fenghua Danyun looked at the final frozen number and her eyes revealed a gaze that was filled with surprise.

At this moment, everyone knew that Xue Tian’s value was definitely not low. At least, it was far higher than Yang Lie’s number. Otherwise, Fenghua Danyun’s expression wouldn’t be so pleasant.

As for whether Qin Fen or Xue Tian was higher?

Fenghua Danyun did not say, and Xue Tian also naturally did not say. It became a temporary cliffhanger in this small group.

“Very good ah, very good ah.” Fenghua Danyun patted Xue Tian’s shoulder and looked at Caesar, Qin Fen, and the others again. Her face was full of excitement, “Ever since I started my research on active levels, I have never come across a situation like you guys, where the whole group’s active value was so high ah.”

Qin Fen exchanged glances with the people next to him and smiled, and his chest was pushed out subconsciously. To be able to gain the acknowledgment of the Sacred Martial Hall’s Head of the Department of Martial Arts who also had the title of being the only martial artist who researched on fury phase and active value matters was indeed something to be happy and proud of.

“After the active value is developed, it will not weaken. They will always stay on you.” Fenghua Danyun clapped her hands, “The reason why many martial artists say that their fury phase has passed is that there is a huge gap between every increase of the star-class strength. When they compare the gap and their active values to find a huge difference, it would naturally seem like their fury phase has passed and that they could only wait on the arrival of their next active value fury phase to grow again.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up again suddenly. They had to develop their current active value fully in this special training no matter what in order to prolong their fury phases a little.

“Well! Very good ah.” Fenghua Danyun bent and flexed her fingers with a smile on her face. “I won’t be lenient to you ah. Now let’s do the first training, called no-injury-fight training.”

No-injury-fight training? Qin Fen was puzzled, and the others were equally as puzzled.

However, in a very short time, Fenghua Danyun had used the most practical method to tell everyone what was called no-injury-fight training.

It was having one side attack and the other side take the beating.

The attacking party will have to know their limit. They must not really injure the beating party, yet still have to cause extreme pain to them.

This was a technical job. If you attack heavily, they would get hurt. If you attack lightly, they wouldn’t feel much.

According to Fenghua Danyun’s research, martial artists’ strengths would usually enter a random and relatively faster growth period during their fury phase not long after a hard battle.

Usually, these martial artists would have taken some beating in the battle. That was actually a kind of stimulation, a stimulation for pain. Their active values would then increase under such pain, but it was uncertain as to how much it would increase. There were even times when the stimulation wasn’t enough and they wouldn’t increase, disabling the development of their potential.

Pain was the best way to stimulate active values. Many scientists have also studied it, but would choose other methods after finding it ineffective from the repeated trials.

However, Fenghua Danyun had always believed that this method would definitely work. She then kept researching and researching to finally discover that everyone’s pain tolerance was different. As long as they don’t stop causing the martial artist pain, his instincts would be stimulated bit by bit after causing him pain persistently, even if his active value didn’t increase initially.

So, pain! It became the first important course when young martial artists received training.

Qin Fen found that he had never encountered such a ridiculous training method before and at the same time began to understand why everyone was not willing to be trained by Fenghua Danyun again after experiencing her training.

When martial artists fight, their lives were taken out to make a bet. They weren’t even afraid of life and death, much less being afraid of pain. Many martial artists would share this thought.

On the other hand, Qin Fen and the others agreed with another famous dictum.

“In this world, death is not the most fearful thing. The most fearful thing is when living is worse than dying.”

Pain is not horrifying if it’s just once or twice, but if you were in pain every minute and every second for twenty-four hours... who could bear it?

Fenghua Danyun not only got a few people to kick and punch each other, she also got them to pinch, grab and bite. The most intolerable part was the bed that was used for sleeping.

In order to ensure that everyone could enjoy the torture of pain for twenty-four hours and even enjoy pain in their dreams, all beds were nail beds that were made of special materials.

This kind of nail bed was very strange. It would not pierce the human skin, but it could also poke at the skin forcefully at the same time. These nails even had the ability to break the defensive qi of one’s protection art.

Caesar and the others have entered the ten-star-class. Although they still couldn’t release their true energy, the strength of the protection from using their true energy to protect their bodies was atypically strong.

Especially the internal art that had been modified by Qin Fen, Caesar no longer needed to take extra time out to practice his body protection internal art. Not only did the new Nine Sun Divine Art include his original protective cultivation arts, it also added some secret art of protection that was similar to the attributes of his internal art.

Nine Dragons Fire Shield was one of them. If he were to really use his true energy fully to protect his body, it’s anti-strike ability was still extremely shocking.

Even if the nail bed could break some of the defensive qi, it would still not be able to break Caesar and the others’ divine protection art.

It was natural for Head of Department of Martial Arts, Asura, to see that everyone had pretty good techniques, and simply gave an order that no one was allowed to use defensive qi for protection. If anyone used it, they would simply beat him up to the point where he couldn’t move and throw him onto the nail bed for a week.

Pain, pain, pain!

Ever since Qin Fen and his team debuted, they spent most of their time causing each other pain. It was only during the seaside sniper battle as well as White Tiger’s palm when Qin Fen and his whole team had experienced what deathly pain was like.

However, there was also the aid of various painkillers during their hospital stay. The pain they experienced was still relatively less.

With Qin Fen’s tolerance, a pain like today’s would still cause him to grind his teeth on the nail bed, frowning and squinting constantly.

It’s too painful! The kicking and punching toward their companions as well as the pinching and biting under Asura’s supervision during the day had already caused every inch of their skin and muscles to hurt to the point where they would shout for their mothers, and it only hurt more at night.

Two days, three days, four days...

One month... two months... three months...

In the special training base of Asura Fenghua Danyun, Qin Fen had no escape. It was like a noble family’s daughter in ancient times, hurting day by day.

When he finally waited till the time where it didn’t hurt, he would then be taken to undergo other special training where he had to fight in a life-and-death battle while feeling light-headed and suffocated. There were also some even more bizarre experiments.

In the words of Fenghua Danyun, “The development of the active level has yet to be fully completed, and there are still some theories that needed help with experiments. Since you guys are training, you can help out with the experiments while you’re at it.”

Ever since then, the small group of martial artists that had the most potential in Sacred Martial Hall joined the ranks of laboratory rats just like that.

There was an ultimate suffocation method that was created in a room with no oxygen at all to see if people’s occasional breakthroughs between life and death had a relation to active levels.

With this, there were twelve times Qin Fen fainted and spat foam, nearly at the point where he could have died.

There was a crushing camel straw method that was to make a bunch of heavy objects for a person to carry and then add onto the weight constantly until the point where just a single straw could crush them, letting them maintain this state to undergo the so-called huge pressure experiment.

Little Dragon King Yang Lie had a lingering effect due to this experiment: he would explode immediately when he saw a sack. The battle strength he exerted was indeed a lot stronger and fiercer than usual, but Qin Fen believed that this situation happened because Little Dragon King was almost about to go insane and was not a true effect of the experiment.

After all, there was a societal saying that the battle power of the mentally-ill was far more than normal.

Although Solomon never frowned during the test and always kept his cool state, every time he saw an ice cube, his lips would turn purple without having to go close to it.

Qin Fen called it a conditioned reflex. Whoever was thrown into extremely cold ice for three days and three nights only to be thrown back into it just after a short rest to undergo experiments would also react the same way as Solomon after a period of time, where their lips would go purple automatically when they see ice cubes.

Brooks had said bluntly that Fenghua Danyun was usually very cute and likable, but as long as she was engaged in an experiment, whoever could still adore her must be crazy!
