Once, I wanted to be a good person

This world does not have the electronic game "Fight the Landlord."

If it did, Fang Ze really wanted to add a sound effect: "Don't go! Fight until dawn!"

And ... Who knows if it was a prophecy come true!

The study session between Fang Ze and Qing Ya really lasted a very long time.

Initially, Fang Ze thought that with high-interest loans, breaking through to the Skin Tempering stage, or even achieving Perfection directly, would be very simple!

It's just about spending money, right?

Now he had money!

But ... he found he had thought too much.

Gathering hard strength through high-interest loans and Credit World requires a prerequisite: you must at least know how to train in the next stage and have successful attempts.

However, the Body Tempering methods at the Skin Tempering stage are completely different from those at the Muscle Tempering and Tendon Tempering stages.

If Muscle Tempering and Tendon Tempering stages are still within the range of ordinary creatures, then the Skin Tempering stage really marks the beginning of transforming from a creature into an Extraordinary Creature!

From the traits of the Skin Tempering stage that Qing Ya explained to Fang Ze, it was evident.

The Skin Tempering realm is about making the skin membrane as hard as steel, impervious to swords and guns, and even making modern firearms and cold weapons entirely ineffective.

But ... how could biological skin truly be like steel? How would it then bend or move? And how would it feel to touch ...?

Therefore, it demands a Transcendent reconstruction of the skin membrane, allowing the skin to have immense defensive power, yet not affecting its texture, elasticity, or causing other effects on the body!

Just listening to Qing Ya's explanation, Fang Ze was already overwhelmed.

Not to mention when Qing Ya began teaching the Body Tempering methods for the Skin Tempering stage.

Possibly, Qing Ya hadn't expected that she would be teaching Fang Ze the Skin Tempering stage that evening, so she had to remove her thick Practice Clothes in front of Fang Ze.

She only left a tight-fitting set of Practice Clothes underneath.

Although those Practice Clothes were especially form-fitting, adhering like a yoga outfit and beautifully outlining Qing Ya's elegant curves and voluptuous figure.

But Fang Ze still wanted to say one thing: "What about trust, Mentor? What about the trust between us?"

You wear such a thick layer outside, and even wore a base layer inside!

You really don't treat your student as one of your own!

Once she had removed her thick Practice Clothes, Qing Ya also demonstrated to Fang Ze the method of Skin Tempering.

A very terrifying training method.

It utilized the muscles and tendons that had already been tempered to twist and stretch from inside, and forge the skin membrane!

Even though Qing Ya's Martial Arts Cultivation was outstanding, it was clearly not simple for her, as evident from her training condition!

Watching the patches of the skin membrane swell and then dissipate on Qing Ya's arm, Fang Ze himself felt pain!

After Qing Ya finished demonstrating, Fang Ze couldn't help but raise his hand and then said to Qing Ya, "Mentor, may I ... touch you?"

"Huh?" Qing Ya was momentarily stunned.

Fang Ze quickly pointed at the arm Qing Ya had just demonstrated with.

From Fang Ze's expression, Qing Ya could tell there was no other intention behind his curious gaze.

She smiled, recalling how curious she had been when she first learned Skin Tempering.

So she nodded and even rolled up her sleeve to reveal her fair arm.

Fang Ze touched it, feeling the skin smooth like milk, soft, and not rough at all.

Fang Ze then tried to press it.

Qing Ya's arm was very soft, pressing down easily.

Qing Ya watched Fang Ze's actions and gently explained, "This is the marvel of the Skin Tempering realm."

"Because it's an Internal Training technique, it actually does not affect the surface of the body at all."

"But ... as soon as you exert force, or receive an attack!"

As she said this, her arm suddenly tensed, signaling Fang Ze to try again.

This time when Fang Ze poked, he found Qing Ya's skin hard as steel. Not only could he not push it, even touching it with his fingertips was painful!

Then Qing Ya explained, "The Xida Body Refining Method can refine up to seven layers of skin membrane!"

"Each layer will add one times the defensive power!"

"After the seven layers are refined and coupled with the protection of the Power of Laws, from then on, there will be no fear of any force lesser than an Awakener."

Hearing Qing Ya's words, Fang Ze finally understood the meaning of the entire Skin Tempering stage and also learned how to train!

He didn't idle anymore but began attempting to use the Xida Body Refining Method to start his Skin Tempering.

His mind moved, and mimicking the way Qing Ya had harnessed the power, he concentrated all his thoughts into his arm.

Instantly, the muscles in his arm twisted like steel rebar, forcefully intertwining and then bulging dramatically!

Human skin membranes are also elastic, and at that moment, Fang Ze felt as if his arm's skin were violently tearing apart, sending a piercing pain.

That instant of pain had already made him sweat profusely.

His reflexive reaction made him naturally release the energy!

Watching him, Qing Ya gently wiped his sweat with her sleeve and softly encouraged him, "It's okay. This part is indeed tough."

"Once you get through it, it will be fine."

Pausing, she then said, "Actually, you've made breakthroughs in two stages consecutively today."

"You shouldn't rush it so eagerly."

"So if you're tired, you can rest first. We can continue tomorrow."

Hearing Qing Ya's words, Fang Ze stubbornly shook his head and said, "It's okay, Mentor. I can still keep going!"
