Chapter 192 - Metamorphosis Part 4

Eight half-naked men, with towels tied to their waist, were standing in front of Su Lin.

They had tall imposing figures and lean defined muscles, devoid of even the tiniest bit of extra fat.

Their bodies were exuding a frightening aura, even capable of freezing an innocent bystander completely in place.

Their skin was pure and soft and their bones felt strong and sturdy.

Even their hair follicles were impeccable.

Everything about the eight men seemed immaculate as if they had just stepped out of a male model catalog. In fact, one had to wonder if they were even real.

They looked more like some sort of ultra-realistic top-grade handsome mannequins fitted with different heads and facial features.

"Master, my own beauty is blinding my eyes." Monkey excitedly exclaimed.

"Shut up. Your stupid face is blinding my eyes as well." Panther scoffed at him. He then put on a more serious facade and bowed to Su Lin.

"Our strengths and reflexes have been boosted once again, Master. And my soul core has already broken through to the next stage, stage 3." Panther obediently reported with a serious tone.

"Damn you, Panther. I was telling the same thing. Why did you have to cut me off?! Hmph." Monkey sulked grimacing at him.

"Enough. Enough. You guys can fight it out real soon." Su Lin chuckled with a mysterious twinkle in her eyes.

She was also happy with the result in front of her eyes. Their bodies have been completely purified of even the small bit of impurities.

They were akin to newborn infants right now, except with much higher strength and muscle grade.

"Now that the body-tempering step is completed, your body is at a very suitable state to study fighting techniques."

"I have several ancient heritages with me, and I can impart a suitable technique for each of you."

Gasping quietly, everyone nodded obediently. There was a clearly visible hunger in their eyes to grow stronger and become more powerful.

Since their master was tossing out heaven-defying treasures and techniques as if they were chocolates, they would be fools if they let this chance slip by.

Just how many people on this earth would sell their entire fortunes and then some more just to have a chance to get the special body-tempering treatment.

And now they get to learn supreme fighting techniques?? They could bȧrėly contain their excitement.

Su Lin could literally see gratitude oozing from their fervent gazes and chuckled.

"Don't thank me just yet. This is the last thing, I will be handing out for free."

"Since all of you lack combat practises, there will be a weekly tournament every single week from now on and only the victor will be given more resources."

"Then don't blame me for being partial. Ha Ha."

Everyone instantly became alert and felt their blood boil with anticipation.

This tournament was very clearly going to be biased to the first week's winner since whoever wins first will always have that advantage.

"Master, will sis Runyan be participating in this tournament as well?" Monkey curiously asked.

Ah... What?

Su Lin who was seriously explaining their training schedule and tournament format suddenly felt a loss for words.

"You... Come here Monkey." The veins on her forehead throbbed.

Monkey happily skipped closer to her thinking he would be the first person to get a fighting technique.

But Su Lin mercilessly grabbed the man's ear and twisted it until he shrieked. "How do you always come up with the most inappropriate question?"

The roam instantly echoed with laughter. It was really funny to see a grown man be disciplined by a gentle and cute woman.

"Sis, actually I would also like to learn fighting." She swallowed her saliva and stepped forward with determination.

When everyone else is working hard, she didn't want to slack and become a liability.

"Are you sure? You don't have to fight if you don't want to." Su Lin didn't want her to feel peer pressured.

"I am sure, sis." Runyan clenched her fists and declared.

"Okay then. I will start with this idiot here."

Su Lin grabbed Monkey and seated him next to her. She closed her eyes and a few seconds later, a white translucent mist swirled around her thumb finger.

She extended her finger towards Monkey and imprinted it on his forehead front and center, in between his two eyes.

Monkey shivered involuntarily as a huge amount of information ȧssaulted his senses. His eyes zoned out and entered a trance-like state.

Only after fifteen minutes or so, the man opened his eyes.

Monkey's usual playfulness had momentarily disappeared and his eyes solemnly looked at Su Lin. He cupped his hands and bowed deeply to thank her from the bottom of his heart.

Even Panther was puzzled at his brother's serious behaviour. He watched the man silently leave to cultivate and practise in seclusion and curiously asked Su Lin.

"Master, Monkey usually uses bȧrė fists to fight."

"He doesn't use guns or swords like us." Panther worriedly said.

He didn't want Su Lin to teach him something that was completely different from what he was used to.

"Mmmm. Don't worry. I know. I did impart him a suitable close combat technique, Golden Mountain Quake Fist commandments."

"I already know what all of you are proficient in. Your first brother briefed me."

She looked at Luther who was silently observing from the back and smiled. Unlike others, the man seemed to be in deep thoughts and was not particularly excited or talkative.

"Ah ok." Panther nodded, scratching his head. He then moved forward to receive his teachings from Master.

Slowly and patiently, attending one by one, Su Lin imparted suitable surpreme grade fighting techniques to all her precious students and now only Luther, Su Lin, and Little white were left.
