The Legend of Luo Yunyang

Recommendation Position

The purplish sunlight shone on the arid land of Donglu Village [1][1], providing a glimmer of life for the small countryside located outside this safe zone.

When one stood on the ground on the huge crack of Donglu Village, faint streaks of enormous mountains could be seen through the cracked sky that was like glass.

The scientists concluded that the huge mountain range was not in the void.

There was a peak called Demon Peak. "If you don't obey, you'll be thrown off that mountain!". This is what adults say to scare children.

There is also the so-called Peak of Wealth. "Whoever climbs the mountain to the top, he will have an endless treasure!" The passionate statement was uttered by adventurers.

In addition, there is also a named Puncak Desperation. Many orphans and widows stared at this mountain with hatred. Their father and husband were buried in the rocks.

"Shen Yulang, 177 kilos. Pass!"

"Zhu Ming, 130 kilos. Substandard!"

"Luo Yunyang, 271 kilos. That's fantastic!"

At the training ground built of black and purple colored soil, a young boy in a simple manner in a cheesy blue tunic floated his fist at the training target, greeted boisterously by the cheers of the spectators.

"This kid named Luo Yunyang is really great. He had increased his strength to 250 kilos in just a month. He must have really become a martial arts expert."

"Yes, she is only 15 years old. By the time you're 20 years old, you might be able to reach 500 kilos. Becoming a martial expert would be very easy for him."

"I wonder if he has a girlfriend. There must be a lot of people interested in him!"

As the audience gossiped, a young man stepped forward. The clothes were the same as those worn by others in the field, but the materials and workmanship made his clothes look much more expensive. The young man was very handsome, but his facial expression looked vile. His cynical grin made the spectators feel uneasy.

"Huh... Reaching 271 kilos is not easy, but nothing compared to my strength!"

As soon as he finished his words, the youngster stepped quickly onto the training target and struck a hard blow.

"Lian Yubi, 392 kilos. That's incredible!"

When the sentence was spoken, the students and teachers in charge of the assessment were shocked.

"How is it possible? At the previous assessment, Lian Yubi's strength was only 162 kilos, even lower than my strength. How can he reach 392 kilos in just 2 weeks? He must be cheating!" tambun Shen Yulang expressed his opinion.

Half of the other students dissolved into a commotion, but there were also those who did not comment at all. Many people were involuntarily looking towards Luo Yunyang.

Luo Yunyang, in his blue linen uniform, turned moody. Something was in his mind.

"You shouldn't just indiscriminately accuse people. Yubi's brother took a body-building medicine 10 days ago. What you see right now is his true strength" said a thin young man, who looked satisfied with himself.

As soon as the words "body-building medicine" were thrown out, the students who were shouting were shocked. Even the teacher standing on the sidelines looked extremely stunned.

"The "body-building drug costs 100,000 days [2][2]. Is the Lian Yubi family really willing to spend that much money?"

"I heard that the medicine was made from the blood of purified beasts. I've only heard of it. I can't believe drugs like this really exist."

Lian Yubi doesn't care about the people talking about her. Arrogantly, he walked towards Luo Yunyang and grinned, "As I have said before, this recommendation position of Donglu Village is mine."

"You are indeed talented, but how could a poor worm like you, who is only able to eat energy bars [3][3] of low quality, compete with me?"

"You think someone from a poor family could be this amazing?"

While watching Lian Yubi arrogantly walk away, Luo Yunyang clenched his hands full of anger. His days full of hard work were not even comparable to a small bottle of medicine.

"Yunyang, you obtained a recommendation position in the Qitian Martial Academy by representing Donglu Village and ranked first in the Dongshan Region Tournament. No one can take it from you!" the tambun Shen Yulang walked towards Luo Yunyang to comfort him.

Before Luo Yunyang could speak, the pit-headed Xiong Zhenshan schoolmaster had turned towards Luo Yunyang and called out to him, "Luo Yunyang, come here for a while!"

Normally, Xiong Zhenshan always smiled whenever he saw Luo Yunyang. But this time, his expression was grim.

"Luo Yunyang, the recommendation position for the Qitian Martial Academy can only be given to the strongest disciple in this school. If you don't increase your strength continuously, you can't blame the school for disappointing you."

Luo Yunyang's face flushed red with anger. He usually treated everyone with respect and courtesy, but that didn't mean he accepted when humiliated like this.

"You don't need to be hurt. This position is not given to you, but to this school. I'm just telling you, not discussing with you," Xiong Zhenshan said before stepping away.

Luo Yunyang bit his lower lip hard. His heart could not accept it, and he felt a heavy burden weighing down on him, making it difficult to breathe.

"Let's quickly get back to class, Yunyang! Ultraviolet waves are coming!" Shen Yulang ran over and pulled Luo Yunyang. Both of them ran to the classroom.

Ultraviolet waves are a group of ultraviolet rays that come with a vacuum destroyer. At first, the light ultraviolet light slowly forms ultraviolet waves. Ultraviolet waves, which last for four hours a day, are the most unbearable period for ordinary people.

The only way to avoid these attacks is to hide in the room.

"I will rest for a while," Luo Yunyang said firmly as they arrived at the classroom corridor.

He still ran towards the dormitory, although Shen Yulang urged him to stay there. Amidst the journey, Luo Yunyang was reminded of the existence of some students hiding in the dormitory to avoid these ultraviolet waves.

He didn't want to see the look of pity on their faces!

Luo Yunyang headed for the cave behind the school, where he used to practice martial arts. Once he arrived at the cave, he headed straight towards the broken wooden peg in the middle of the cave and struck it.

One punch, two punches, three punches…

Luo Yunyang had no idea how many blows he had struck. All of his strength was drained to the blind blows from the grasp of his hand.

Those dark years of struggle were not even comparable to a small bottle of medicine.

This incident made Luo Yunyang feel a deep sense of pain. However, what made him feel even worse was his inability to change things.

If he took the medicine, then his strength could increase on par with that of a martial expert.

But how could he possibly get the drug?

That's not possible. 100,000 days is the amount of money that his family will not be able to get even in 100 years.

Blood drops kept dripping from the wound on Luo Yunyang's fist, but he was too consumed by his anger to feel even the slightest pain.

Bang out!

As soon as his final blow struck the broken wooden peg violently, Luo Yunyang lost his balance and his head hit the top of the wooden peg.

Luo Yunyang had trained with all his might, until he was exhausted. All he saw before him when he fell was just a dark abyss

As his body fell to the ground, a dazzling light emerged from the middle of the broken wooden peg. The stake broke into pieces due to the blinding light, then a golden ball the size of a baby fist appeared and penetrated into Luo Yunyang's body.

"Install: life forms with low levels..."

"Weak energy. unwanted…"

The sounds of machines were heard from inside the cave.

After a while, Luo Yunyang woke up. His head hurts unbearably.

He won't vent his anger like this again. When he did, the only thing he hurt was himself.

Although his family was not rich, and it would be very difficult for him to obtain those body-building medicines, he still wanted to become a martial artist!

Luo Yunyang shook his head strongly as he tried to get up. He suddenly realized that the wooden peg he had picked up had disappeared.

Who would steal a broken wooden stake?

As Luo Yunyang felt a pain in his head, a panel suddenly appeared in his mind.

Power :0.5

Speed: 0.7

Intelligence :1

Condition :0.9

Since when did this sort of thing appear in his mind?

Luo Yunyang was stunned when he saw those numbers.

"Do you want to make adjustments?" this time, six words appeared.

The adjustments? Luo Yunyang tried to turn Strength into 2. He wants to see what really happened.

When he made the change, the small panel he had in mind suddenly changed.

Power :2

Speed: 0.2

Intelligence: 0.5

Condition :0.4

Originally, Luo Yunyang had not paid much attention to the changes that had occurred to the panel, but as soon as he completed the changes, he felt his head buzzing.

A few things that had previously been seen to be very clear suddenly became blurry. In addition, he also felt extreme fatigue in his heart and mind.

Fatigue…

What the hell's going on?

Luo Yunyang stood up and walked towards the entrance of the cave. He realized his speed was becoming slower. Usually, it only takes 10 seconds to pass through the road, but this time it takes about half a minute.

However, when Luo Yunyang's feet hit a rock the size of a fist, the stone flew like a rocket.

Bang out!

The rock struck a larger rock, about 50 kilograms in weight, outside the cave and made the boulder fly as well. Luo Yunyang gaped so surprised.

Since when did he become so strong?

Could this be due to the panel that appeared within his mind?

Without hesitation, Luo Yunyang made a few more adjustments. This time, he improved his body Condition to 1 and reduced his Strength, Speed, and Intelligence to 0.2 …

This was a small change, but after completing the adjustment, he felt something that could not be expressed in words. He's never felt this comfortable before.

Booms!

He hit the stone wall hard, leaving a 3-inch fist mark.

Previously, Luo Yunyang's fist had only imprinted about 1 inch, yet now his punch had produced a trace as deep as three inches.

This kind of thing can only be done with a force of over 500 kilos!

His strength must have reached, even surpassing 500 kilos. Luo Yunyang's eyes shone with excitement.

He wanted to look up at the sky and shout in excitement. Although he is not sure what really happened, but no doubt, this change will open a new path for him.
