What the hell? Has my physical condition directly broken through the "Human Peak" and become the "Human Limit"?

No wonder the System's rewards were diminishing.

However, why have my Power and Constitution attributes turned into 100? My Ability Points haven't decreased either, and I didn't allocate any to my attributes. Could it be...

Zhang Beixing muttered, puzzled. As he racked his brains without any answers, a thought suddenly surfaced in his mind, making him feel ratherbizarre. Could it be that aside from allocating points to increase my attributes, my own training can also lead to improvements?

He thought it wasn't at all impossible!

He had pondered this matter long ago. Since his attributes had been quantified, why did he feel himself improving slightly after every physical activity? Although the improvements he sensed were minuscule and almost imperceptible, they were still improvements.

This clearly didn't conform to the fundamental logic of quantified attributes. Specifically, once quantified, unless the numerical values themselves were adjusted, no other method should be able to improve the corresponding attribute.

However, Zhang Beixing hadn't thought about it so deeply before. Also, because training for a period hadn't yielded any obvious changes—whereas allocating points did—he had assumed that the improvements he felt from his own workouts were just an illusion. He had never imagined the truth would be like this.

Then if that's the case, is it possible that my skills could also follow this logic? Does this mean I can improve through my own efforts and break through their numerical values?

Zhang Beixing exclaimed internally, thinking of the insights on the Northern Sect's Eight Pieces of Brocade from a Chen Family predecessor he had read at the Chen residence a few days ago. After reading them, he had felt some improvement. However, these improvements were far less significant than those gained by allocating points through the System, making them difficult to notice.

However, by accumulating over time, it should also be possible to achieve a breakthrough. Since that's the case, I'll try it in the future. For now, I won't allocate points to the Eight Pieces of Brocade. At some point, I'll visit the Chen Family and see if I can get another chance to browse their library. My goal is to raise my Eight Pieces of Brocade to +31 without any System enhancement. Even so, it's still not as convenient or quick as allocating points through the System.

Zhang Beixing now understood how the System's point allocation worked.

He then looked at the recommended task panel. He discovered that after all his attributes reached 100 and his physical state broke through to the "Human Limit" level, his recommended task panel had also undergone many changes.

[Suggestion: Practicing Martial Arts on a Wire, Walking Like a Dragon! Difficulty C-. Stand on a suspended wire and perform Yue Family's Fist Sequence five times, reward 1 Ability Point (Original: Perform once, reward 1 Ability Point)]

[Suggestion: Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, Enduring Qi and Blood! Difficulty C. Choose any internal martial art to practice; for every three performances, and emit the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, reward 1.5 Ability Points (Original: Perform once, reward 1.5 Ability Points)]

[Suggestion: Fist Power Like a Tiger, Hidden Force to Subdue Dragons! Difficulty C. For every Wooden Dummy destroyed in water, reward 1 Ability Point (Original: Reward 2 Ability Points)]

[Suggestion: Piercing Gale, Sword Intent and Blade Qi! Difficulty B+. Master any melee Weapon, and generate a gale with your swings; for every hundred swings, reward 2 Ability Points (Original: 3 Ability Points)]

[Suggestion: Vital Energy Projection, Harming from a Distance! Difficulty A. For every fist form performed where Bright Force is released externally, reward 3 Ability Points (Original: 5 Ability Points)]

Although Zhang Beixing knew that the task "Practicing Martial Arts on a Wire, Walking Like a Dragon," which had accompanied him for two months, was bound to take the first hit, he hadn't expected this wave of changes to reduce it to such a pitiful state!

Good heavens, five times for just 1 Ability Point! That breaks down to only 0.2 per attempt. With that much effort, I could have practiced releasing Vital Energy several times over.

Next were "Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, Enduring Qi and Blood" and "Fist Power Like a Tiger, Hidden Force to Subdue Dragons!" The former had diminished to 0.5 per performance, and the latter rewarded only one point per destroyed Wooden Dummy.

It seems that from now on, the only worthwhile practices are 'Piercing Gale,' 'Vital Energy Projection,' and perhaps 'Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound.' 'Practicing Martial Arts on a Wire' yields too little. As for 'Fist Power Like a Tiger'... I still need to find suitable Wooden Dummies. If they're too thin, the System won't count it. If they're too thick, my hands will ache for two or three hours. Besides that, the main problem is that I've almost used up all the thick Wooden Dummies in this area. I can't very well chop down trees and set them up myself, can I? A tree the thickness of an arm at my place would cost a fine of several thousand if cut down. If I chop down a tree that meets the System's standards, wouldn't that cost me tens of thousands in fines? My wallet couldn't handle that!

Zhang Beixing felt rather helpless.

His only consolation now was that he had already mastered 'Vital Energy Projection' and 'Piercing Gale,' and their rewards weren't low. With these two to substitute for others, his rate of earning Ability Points wouldn't drop too drastically.

But... how the hell do I train 'Piercing Gale,' anyway? My progress is still a big fat zero. It can't be that I'm not allowed to practice it anymore after completing it once, can it?

Whenever he thought about this, Zhang Beixing would get irritated. I'm clearly performing it exactly as before, perhaps even more easily. There's no reason...
