Chapter 6

Luo Fei ran for approximately ten minutes under the awkward atmosphere between him and his sister. He was considerate with Luo Xue, who was in his arms, and purposely slowed down for her. He knew that no ordinary human would be able to withstand the pressure from his current speed.

Even though he had slowed down, notifications from the Automatic Improvement System continued to ring in his ears.

‘Ding! Speed +2’

‘Ding! Speed +2’

‘Ding! Speed +2’

Luo Fei, who was in a very good mood, could not resist smiling.

Although Luo Xue was blind, her other senses were abnormally sensitive. Perhaps this was a blessing from God to compensate for her loss of sight.

Luo Xue could feel Luo Fei’s joy. She buried her small face into Luo Fei’s neck and her little lips whispered into Luo Fei’s ear, “Brother, your abilities are amazing…”

Luo Fei occasionally sniffed Luo Xue’s fragrance. When he heard Luo Xue’s words, he grinned and said, “Your brother is now a martial artist!”

“What, a martial artist?” Luo Xue’s mouth gasped in awe and Luo Fei was amused when he saw his sister in a state of shock.

“Hehe, I’m amazing, right?” Luo Fei ran while talking.

When they reached a crowded street, Luo Fei stopped talking to remain focused. Luo Fei felt that his body was filled with abundant energy. Not once had he ever felt fatigued even though he had already run for a long time.

As he had slowed down for Luo Xue, more and more ordinary humans were able to see them and were shocked by the scene. Luo Fei clearly felt the delicate arms around his neck getting tighter and tighter and he knew that he was still too fast for Luo Xue.

He looked around and noticed that cars were trailing behind him despite his decreased speed. He was not even running at his top speed!

Luo Fei did not stop because of the astonished and envious sounds from both sides of the street. Instead, he quickly disappeared along with the gush of wind.

…

“Look, it’s Superman!”

“Where is he?”

“Over there, he just passed by me with a whoosh!”

“Idiot! That’s not Superman! That’s a powerful martial artist!”

Two children at about the age of six or seven years old were discussing excitedly at the fork of a road.

…

At this moment, a young man and woman in a small truck saw the afterimage of the siblings that sped past them. The woman in the passenger seat covered her mouth and exclaimed, “A martial artist! Oh my God, I actually saw a martial artist on the streets!”

The woman then excitedly pulled at the man who was driving the car, “Hubby, quick! Follow after him quickly! I didn’t expect to meet a martial artist on the streets! How peculiar is this!”

The majority of martial artists rarely displayed their powerful skills in public. Now that she met one by chance on the streets, the woman was certainly very excited.

However, the man driving the car looked at the woman as if she had gone crazy.

“Are you crazy? You want me to chase after him? That’s a martial artist! A martial artist who has powerful abilities that are able to guard our base! Do you think he’s a celebrity?”

“If you annoy him, it would be perfectly fine and possible for him to kill you if he wanted to!”

The man quickly slowed the car down and scolded his overly excited wife.

“Besides, he is so fast and has instantly disappeared! Do you think our car can magically elevate and chase after him?”

It was difficult for an ordinary human to achieve the abilities of a martial artist. However, ordinary humans did have the basic knowledge regarding the abilities and potential of a martial artist.

A beginner-level martial artist disciple possessed 300 kg of strength and 25 m/s speed.

An intermediate-level martial artist disciple possessed 500 kg of strength and 50 m/s speed.

An advanced-level martial artist disciple possessed 700 kg of strength and 70 m/s speed.

Beyond the advanced-level martial artists disciples were the real martial artists who possessed inhumane strength and speed. Their strength could be as much as 1,000 kg and their speed could reach a terrifying 100 m/s! 

Based on these facts, even the weakest beginner-level martial artist disciple could reach a speed of 25 m/s. Hence, when ordinary humans like them drove at a speed of 100, this meant that they were only traveling at a speed of 27 m/s. The thought of comparing the speed of both parties was shocking enough. 

Ordinary adults were usually aware of the general knowledge of this planet. They understood that the speed of a martial artist disciple could not be maintained for a long duration. For instance, the speed of an intermediate-level martial artist disciple was faster than a car, but they could not maintain running at the same speed for a long period of time.

According to official statistics, even talented beginner-level martial artist disciples could not maintain their speed for five minutes and would eventually reach their physical limits. However, an ordinary beginner-level disciple would be considered decent if they were able to maintain their speed for two or three minutes. It was also known that the speed of some martial artists could last for more than half an hour!

Luo Fei who was running in front of them had been running for more than half an hour. He had been running non-stop since he left the academy which was several hours ago and had yet to feel the slightest bit of fatigue. His speed was even more persistent than a martial artist!

…

Meanwhile, Luo Fei had reached another street full of busy cars. Apart from the young man and woman in the car just now, many other passersby had also noticed Luo Fei. 

“Holy sh*t! A martial artist has just appeared on the street!”

“Quick! Pass me my expensive camera! I want to take a picture of this!”

“Slow down! Where do you think you are going running so fast?”

“I didn’t expect to see a martial artist running on the streets!”

Exclamations and car horns sounded repeatedly. All kinds of envious and respectful gazes fell on Luo Fei when he ran past them.

The surrounding cars subconsciously slowed down and even stopped where they were just to witness the scene. Martial artists and ordinary humans were two different groups of people. Hence, even though Luo Fei was not the only martial artist on the planet, it was still a rare sight for martial artists to be seen on a peaceful day like this.

Not to mention, martial artists were their heroes who protected and defended them against the ferocious beasts outside the capital and therefore were highly respected by ordinary humans.

To top it off, the strength of martial artists had far exceeded the strength of ordinary humans. They were said to be able to match the powers of Superman and this had caused all ordinary humans to crazily pursue after martial artists!

…

‘Ding! Speed +3’

‘Ding! Speed +3’

‘Ding! Speed +4’

The crisp and melodious notifications kept ringing in his ears while a continuous stream of warm current coursed through his limbs and bones…

Luo Fei was certain that his speed had already exceeded the limit of a martial artist. It seemed like some kind of propeller was installed on his body and it allowed him to run at such high speed. It was as if he had broken through his own body limits through running!

With that thought in mind, his face revealed a strange expression. If the news of his achievements were circulated, he would probably become the public’s enemy. Everyone knew that speed was the hardest attribute to increase, but for him, he had broken through the limits with just a casual run.

‘How would you define a prodigy? This is what a prodigy looks like!’

Luo Fei’s heart was filled with joy. There were no strength and speed limits that existed for Luo Fei after all! The most realistic feeling for Luo Fei now was derived from the huge change of his physique, which was still constantly improving.

As Luo Fei felt the whooshing sounds of the wind by his ears, he felt a sense of intimacy that came from the bottom of his heart. He was certain that his speed had definitely reached the highest possible limits of any true martial artist! At this instance, Luo Fei was tempted to run with all his might just to test how fast he could go!

100m/s… or 120m/s… or maybe even faster!

With the Automatic Improvement System, his running endurance was still increasing alongside his speed!

Luo Fei even thought of shouting, ‘Would else could possibly compare themselves to me?’
