Chapter 242: Chapter 147: The Tiger Appears, Panicked Classmates, Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers!_4

And now, after a whole day, he could train at least ten times.

This meant that...

”I’m going to make a fortune!”

Thinking that he only needed to practice Yue Family Spear ten times a day to earn up to 30 Ability Points, Zhang Beixing was so excited that he barely noticed his fatigue, and his breathing quickened.

Thirty a day, three hundred in ten days, three thousand in a hundred days!

He didn’t have to do anything now. He just needed to maintain that 99.9 attribute limit, train for a year, and he would get 1,095 Ability Points.

If all 1,095 Ability Points were added up, his attributes could be boosted to 400+!

What did that mean? Transcendent!

He wouldn’t even need any fancy maneuvers; just one punch could easily kill boxing champion Tyson!

”Start training, start training!”

Thinking about this incredible future, Zhang Beixing’s blood surged. He grabbed the Yue Family Spear and started practicing to one side.

However, ten minutes later...

”Damn System, where are my Ability Points?”

After enthusiastically practicing one round of the Yue Family Spear, he didn’t hear the System’s voice by his ear.

The sound of Zhang Beixing cursing echoed through the mountains.

He suspected the System might have seen him as exploiting a bug—either blocking his suggestions or simply pocketing his Ability Points.

Otherwise, why would this round of the Yue Family Spear, which was identical to his previous practices, yield no Ability Points?

That made no sense!

Perplexed, Zhang Beixing opened the suggestion panel.

He found that the suggestion ”Piercing Gale, Sword Intent and Blade Qi” was not blocked and was still quietly lying in the suggestion task bar.

That left only one possibility: his Ability Points had been pocketed.

But... that shouldn’t be the case. His Ability Points came from the System; why would it pocket his points for no reason? Could it be because he exploited a bug? But from the time he discovered this bug until now, the System hadn’t fixed it. This indicated it wasn’t a bug at all, but a mechanism. Utilizing a mechanism for personal gain shouldn’t be a problem!

If that’s the case, where are my Ability Points?

Leaning on his spear and pondering this issue, Zhang Beixing admitted he couldn’t understand.

「......」

Just as Zhang Beixing finally executed Piercing Gale, he wondered why he didn’t gain any Ability Points for his subsequent martial arts training, despite having completed the System’s suggested task.

Elsewhere, at the entrance of Xiyin Town, it was bustling.

After disembarking one after another from the train at Yiling Station, Zhang Beixing’s classmates had arranged to meet at the bus station. Once all twenty-three of them had gathered, they took a bus together to Xiyin Town.

Once they got off the bus, many were captivated by the scenery and began taking photos with their phones.

Others were catching up with close friends, reminiscing and chatting about recent events.

Meanwhile, a man stepped forward from the crowd. He spread his arms and hugged Zheng Jituo, who had been waiting at the entrance of Xiyin Town for a long time. As he hugged him, he said,

”My son, long time no see! Come, let your father hug you, see if you’ve lost any weight!”

”Why are you the only one here to pick us up? Didn’t Lao Zhang come too? Where is he?”

Jin Linyu hugged Zheng Jituo, looked around, and not seeing Zhang Beixing’s figure, he couldn’t help but ask.

”Ah, you know Lao Zhang. The guy became obsessed with martial arts training the moment he got into it. He’s basically been training in the mountains constantly since he arrived ten days ago. I bet he doesn’t even know you’ve arrived!”

After embracing Jin Linyu, Zheng Jituo stepped back and explained Zhang Beixing’s situation.

”Living in the mountains? For ten days? Wasn’t Lao Zhang starved to death?” Dong Guoning asked in surprise.

”Are you dense, or is Lao Zhang? Wouldn’t he come down to town to buy supplies?” Zheng Jituo said, exasperated.

Nearby, hearing his words, Lin Siqi raised an eyebrow. She tightened the bag on her back and asked Zheng Jituo, ”Zheng Jituo, do you know where Lao Zhang lives on the mountain?”

”Of course, Sister Qi! A while ago, didn’t I post a picture of West Yin Mountain in the group chat? You all said you wanted to camp there. Well, to tell you the truth, Lao Zhang lives there too. And let me tell you, he really knows how to pick a spot! There’s a waterfall nearby, a stream out front, and if you walk a short distance, you can overlook the distant mountains. The scenery is amazing, and it’s incredibly relaxing!” Zheng Jituo explained.

Lin Siqi nodded in understanding, then asked Zheng Jituo a few more questions about Zhang Beixing.

Upon learning that Zhang Beixing was quite happy and content living alone on the mountain, she didn’t say much more.

She simply rejoined her roommates, and they started discussing what they would do and where they’d take photos once they got up the mountain.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zheng Jituo told them to wait a moment before heading back home to get his camping gear.

However, just as Zheng Jituo returned home, he saw his uncle hurriedly walking out, phone in hand.

Seeing his uncle’s hurried and anxious expression, Zheng Jituo was puzzled. ”Uncle,” he asked, ”what’s happened? Why are you in such a rush?”

Zheng Jituo’s uncle approached him. ”I was looking for you,” he said. ”I remember you’re supposed to go camping in the mountains with your classmates around this time, right?”

”Yeah, what about it?” Zheng Jituo asked. He had told his uncle, grandmother, and the others about this a long time ago.

Then he heard his uncle say, ”Tell your classmates not to go for the time being. It’s not very safe on West Yin Mountain at the moment. I just received a text message from Yiling City. It said that tracks of a large wild animal, suspected to be a tiger’s, were recently found near West Yin Mountain. It’s very dangerous. Avoid going into the mountains unless absolutely necessary.”
