Chapter 173: How to Become a Master

Thud! Thud! Thud!
The attacks of “Shadow Leg” lacked the heavy sound of breaking air and the stunning penetrating power of ordinary lower-tier boxing techniques, but its relentless frequency of tearing through the air was extremely high, fast beyond imagination.
Faced with a Zombie at the Creation Realm, Kai Xin felt no pressure at all. His fist and leg shadows flashed rapidly, delivering attacks almost at the speed of light.
Compared to other martial arts with slower attack speeds, “Shadow Leg” was nearly twice as fast. As long as the attacks were effective, the speed at which experience points could be gained was also twice as fast.
In just half a day, Kai Xin raised the level of “Shadow Leg” from 1.00 to the tenth tier. The higher the level, the more perfect its attributes became, and the faster its speed!
Although the small Zombie at the Creation Realm attacked with all its might at its master’s command, it had no chance to counter under the relentless onslaught of “Shadow Leg.”
Like a delicate flower in a storm, it endured fierce destruction and trials, swaying wildly under the barrage of punches and kicks. If not for its relatively thick outer shell, it would have long been kicked beyond recognition.
“…”
On the other side, player Xiao Bei was utterly helpless.
Watching his two treasures take turns enduring relentless attacks for half a day, his heart ached. He wondered how he could have run into such an overbearing guy.
That guy even used the excuse that martial artists shouldn’t rely too much on external aids to seize his precious puppets’ freedom, treating them as punching bags to practice at the Graveyard. Then he left them there to fend for themselves by fighting Zombies at the Mysterious Realm. After just a short while of training, their defense levels soared by several tiers, and they returned covered in wounds—truly a pitiful sight…
He had seen shameless people before, but never ones like this.
Xiao Bei was furious but dared not speak out.
Yet he had to admit—Kai Xin’s training speed was indeed astonishing. His movement patterns, as well as the angle and consistency of his attacks, were flawless. Every time Kai Xin meditated, Xiao Bei felt greatly benefited, and the next time he fought, he would pay attention to certain aspects, allowing him to hold his ground a little longer.
As time passed, when Kai Xin’s “Shadow Leg” began to emit a faint white light, Xiao Bei could now engage in battles with Zombies at the Mysterious Realm for several minutes without the help of the small Zombie. Both his combat experience and skills improved significantly.

It was not until this moment that Xiao Bei truly understood the meaning of Happy’s previous words, feeling extremely grateful.
“Let me get some medicine to apply to my baby…”
Seeing Happy break away from the battle and fly over, Xiao Bei thought his zombie was in trouble, so he quickly stood up and took out a medicine bottle.
“No need.”
Happy smiled at Xiao Bei and said, “It seems you’ve also grasped something. Good. From now on, focus more on improving your own abilities and skills. Only by combining them can zombie puppets become your greatest asset. Work hard.”
“Mm!”
Xiao Bei nodded firmly, then showed a surprised expression. “No need? What do you mean?”
“I’ve already reached the master level in my ‘Shadowless Leg’ technique. Next, I’ll start practicing ‘Shadowless Wind Leg.’ This technique is much more lethal and has a faster attack speed. Zombies at the Creation level can’t withstand it, so from now on, I need to spar with Xuanmiao-level zombies from the Mass Graveyard.”
“Oh.”
Xiao Bei looked enlightened. But soon, he showed an unbelievable expression:
“What!”
“You reached the master level so quickly?!”
“…”
Nodding, Happy tightened his Jade Silkworm Hand and explained in an indifferent tone, “This is still slow. If I could get some equipment to improve my movement and speed, I could master it in at most twelve hours.”
“…”
“Don’t look so surprised. For all martial arts, the faster the speed, the quicker one can master them. ‘Shadowless Leg’ is one of the fastest among the lower-tier techniques. Of course. Besides, I have a master-level mental technique, so I don’t need to worry about internal energy consumption. I even save time on resting and meditating…”
Pausing briefly, Happy ignored Xiao Bei’s gulping expression and continued, “‘Shadowless Wind Leg’ is a bit more complicated. It might take a few days.”
“A few days?!”
“Of course! It’s a top-tier technique!”
“I mean! Just a few days to reach the master level?!” Xiao Bei’s eyes were wide, completely unable to understand or accept Happy’s claim.
After all, he had been practicing ‘Poisonous Palm’ for over half a month and was only at the eighth level. Although his zombie pet often took action, the more astonishingly efficient Happy seemed, the more he felt he had been wasting time before.
“I don’t want to deal with you.”
Waving his hand, Happy turned around decisively and disappeared from Xiao Bei’s sight.
Xiao Bei gritted his teeth, “Wait!” and chased after him.
Such a great learning opportunity—of course he wouldn’t miss it.
Soon.

Happy casually picked a grumpy zombie, lured it to a spacious and secluded area, and started a one-on-one fight…
The initial attack of the “Shadowless Wind Leg” at this realm’s level could already match the top-tier damage of the “Shadowless Leg,” with no difference in speed!
However…
The zombies at the Mysterious Realm were different from the small zombies created by Xiao Bei—superior in terms of realm, defense, attack, and speed. Such attacks simply couldn’t cause any harm to them.
Yet, that was exactly the effect Happy wanted!
Using punches and kicks while dodging the zombie’s counterattacks, she accumulated effective attacks through a fluid combat style, absorbed combat experience, and slowly raised her level.
Thanks to the speed boost from her “Jade Silkworm Hands” for fist-based martial arts, she quickly got into the rhythm.
However…
What was very common in her past life became the most spectacular and dazzling display in the eyes of the observer, Xiao Bei—a ferocious zombie turning into an innocent punching bag under Happy’s fists and leg techniques. All he saw was a blue figure dancing like a butterfly around the zombie, with shadows of fists and legs continuously striking its body;
“…”
Xiao Bei was quickly captivated by Happy’s skillful and well-controlled attack rhythm and stood quietly aside.
He stayed there for over two hours!
“…So tired.”
Xiao Bei awkwardly rubbed his stiff neck and hopped around a bit.
Not far away, Happy continued to fight the zombie tirelessly.
However…
From start to finish, the zombie managed to hit Happy no more than ten times.
“Bro Happy, take a break!”
Xiao Bei shouted loudly, but his voice echoed hollowly across the desolate burial ground without any response.
“…Alright.”
Xiao Bei silently shut his mouth.
Another two hours passed…
“…”
Xiao Bei checked the time, opened his mouth to remind the person practicing, but ultimately gave up and left in frustration to eat.
At that moment, he finally understood how such an extreme master was forged!
