Chapter 019 Bai Muxi's Advice
Zhang Wei's genetic potential at school was 6.5%, which was much higher than Lin Qiye's initial 5%, placing him in the top ten of his class. He was just a little short of the admission line for a public martial arts university.
Lin Qiye recalled that the martial arts teacher once commented on Zhang Wei, saying that although his "128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics" had also broken through to level 3, it was still a bit short of truly unleashing the power of his genetic potential.
The teacher said that students need to reach at least level 5 in broadcast gymnastics in order for their genetic potential to reach the passing grade of 7%.
Of course, although Zhang Wei was better than Lin Qiye, he also failed the martial arts college entrance examination.
Now, Lin Qiye's radio calisthenics has reached level 3.
With a genetic potential of 6.55%, it's starting to catch up with Zhang Wei.
……
The three walked up to a public power testing device.
This tester is a standard punching target that can accurately display the force of a blow.
"Would you like to go first?" Zhang Wei asked politely.
"Okay." Lin Qiye didn't refuse. He took a deep breath, pushed off the ground with his right foot, used his waist and abdomen to generate power, and transmitted the power along his spine to his arm, finally converging in his right fist, and slammed it into the punching bag!
"Bang!"
A muffled thud.
The numbers on the display screen above the punching bag jumped rapidly before finally settling on a static display.
[602KG!]
"602kg!" Zhang Wei was immediately astonished. He remembered that Lin Qiye's punching power test before the college entrance examination seemed to have barely reached 500kg. How could he have reached 602kg in such a short time? Keep in mind, his own punching power is only around 650kg!
Even Bai Muxi, who was standing to the side, showed a hint of surprise in her usually cold eyes.
She knew that Lin Qiye had been working hard to practice radio calisthenics recently, but she didn't expect it to be like this!
A punching power of 600kg implies a genetic potential of at least 5.9%.
However, Lin Qiye frowned when he saw the number.
He knew that with his current 6.55% genetic potential, if he controlled his strength well, his maximum punching power should be close to 700kg.
If not 700kg, then it should be at least 650kg or more.
My current weight of only 600kg indicates that I still lack the necessary skills in using and unleashing my strength, and my body's potential has not been fully realized.
"It seems that although the level of radio calisthenics has improved, more practice and understanding are still needed for precise control of strength," Lin Qiye thought to himself.
Zhang Wei didn't see Lin Qiye frown; instead, he asked in surprise, "Qiye, what's your current genetic potential? 600kg, that's such a big improvement!"
Lin Qiye didn't hide anything: "It's 6.5%."
Zhang Wei looked surprised: "What?"
He couldn't believe it!
How is that possible!
Lin Qiye is just average in the class, probably around the top 5%.
How did it suddenly surge to 6.5%?
Bai Muxi was also very surprised.
6.5%, which is higher than when I graduated from high school!
Although Lin Qiye's current 6.55% genetic potential still does not meet the minimum admission standard of 7% for public martial arts universities, this rate of progress is already astonishing.
If he chooses to go to a private martial arts university, with his current potential and fighting spirit, he might actually achieve even greater things than I have in the future.
In fact, at the same age, he might have entered the ranks of true martial artists much faster than I have.
However, he did not hesitate to support his continued martial arts training, and was even willing to shoulder the burden of his family for it.
Thinking of this, Bai Muxi felt an indescribable surge of emotion and sweetness.
Her gaze towards Lin Qiye softened even more.
After Lin Qiye finished his test, he stepped aside, gesturing for Zhang Wei and Bai Muxi to try it out as well.
Zhang Wei waved his hand, his expression complicated, and said, "I...I'd better go practice on the equipment over there first."
Lin Qiye turned to Bai Muxi and said with a smile, "Wife, why don't you give it a try? Let me see the true strength of a quasi-martial artist and give me some motivation to move forward."
Upon hearing this, Bai Muxi gently shook her head and said, "My genetic potential is already 9.5%, which is incomparable to your current situation. There's no point in testing it."
Her tone was calm, but Lin Qiye could detect a hint of pride in it.
With 9.5% genetic potential, he's just one step away from the 10% threshold for becoming a martial artist!
Lin Qiye persisted, saying, "Wife, come on, come on."
Bai Muxi was amused by his appearance, her cheeks flushed slightly, but in the end she couldn't resist him and nodded: "Okay, just once."
She walked up to the strength testing machine and took a deep breath.
Unlike Lin Qiye's somewhat awkward burst of energy, Bai Muxi's movements appeared incredibly smooth and coordinated.
She stood still seemingly casually, but her right fist instantly transformed into a blur, slamming into the punching bag with a sharp gust of wind!
"Bang!!!"
A loud bang, even more muffled and penetrating than Lin Qiye's earlier, echoed in the strength testing area!
The numbers on the display screen above the punching bag skyrocketed, finally settling on an astonishing number!
972KG!!!
In an instant, the entire strength testing area fell silent.
The people around them who were training, whether they were doing strength training or practicing fighting skills, all stopped what they were doing and turned their eyes to Bai Muxi, who had achieved amazing results!
"Hiss—972 kilograms!!"
"My God! Is this a near-martial artist?!"
"That's incredible! That force is almost a ton!"
"Who is she? I don't think I've seen her before..."
Exclamations and discussions rose and fell.
Some people who had initially looked down on Lin Qiye now looked at him with envy and jealousy.
Lin Qiye was also shocked by the power of Bai Muxi's punch.
Although he knew Bai Muxi was very strong, seeing her unleash a punch with nearly a ton of force still thrilled him.
"Wife, you're amazing!" Lin Qiye exclaimed sincerely.
Bai Muxi was the center of attention, her pretty face flushed slightly, but her eyes sparkled with confidence.
She tugged at Lin Qiye's sleeve and whispered, "Alright, let's go back."
"Okay!" Lin Qiye nodded and left the gym with Bai Muxi.
As the level of broadcast gymnastics increases, level 5 allows one to enter the ranks of those with 7% gene potential, while at the maximum level of 10, it is said that one can enter the ranks of 9% or even 10%, directly becoming a martial artist!
He too can possess such power!
……
After Lin Qiye and Bai Muxi left, Zhang Wei, who was quietly training in the strength area, heard several young men resting nearby whispering among themselves.
"That woman was incredible! She punched with over 900 kilograms of force! She's definitely a near-martial artist!"
"Yes, I wonder which faction they belong to. There aren't many quasi-martial artists in this grain-producing area."
"Is that guy next to her her partner? He seems... not very capable."
"Hey, these days, it's normal for women to be stronger than men. Maybe she has other advantages."
Hearing these comments, Zhang Wei was taken aback.
He subconsciously recalled Lin Qiye's handsome face and Bai Muxi's stunning beauty.
Could it be... that she really is Lin Qiye's partner?
He shook his head violently, thinking to himself, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
……
Lin Qiye and Bai Muxi returned home.
Closing the door shuts out the noise from the outside world.
Bai Muxi poured two glasses of water and handed one to Lin Qiye.
She paused for a moment, seemingly organizing her thoughts, before raising her head and looking earnestly at Lin Qiye, saying, "Qiye, your genetic potential is already stronger than mine was at the same age."
She recalls that when she graduated from high school at the age of 18, her genetic potential was only 6%.
Lin Qiye, however, had a 6.55% approval rating.
"If... if I can successfully break through to the Martial Artist realm," Bai Muxi looked at Lin Qiye, her eyes filled with determination and a hint of guilt.
"By then, our family's financial situation will be much better. Then...why don't you go to martial arts university too?"
