Jiang Xiaolong walked to the third floor where his house was located with a tired face.
His fatigue was not reflected in his body, but in his mind.
"With your head on your waist, you'll be on tenterhooks for a day with zero income!”
Looking at his empty backpack, he sighed.
He had risked being eaten by the beasts to follow the scavengers out of the city today, but he had not gained anything the entire day.
"This world is both lovable and hateful!”
Jiang Xiaoyu wasn't from this world. He had brought his memories to this world that he loved and hated at the same time.
Love was because this world was very similar to the Earth he was from in his previous life, but martial arts were prevalent.
Experts could destroy the world, destroy cities with one hand, and swallow nuclear bombs with their mouths.
When he came to this world, he thought that he could rise against the trend and reach the peak of martial arts.
However, reality gave him a blow!
Two years ago, when he reached the age of 16, he began to come into contact with martial arts and entered a martial arts school to cultivate.
His lofty ambitions had been completely shattered in the past two years.
If this was a peaceful world, it was fine if one's martial arts talent was not good. It was fine as long as one lived a stable life.
However, in this world, the human race had a great enemy. Countless ferocious beasts were eyeing the human race outside the city. The slightest mistake could lead to the destruction of the entire race and city.
"School will start in a month. I must break through to the fourth tier of Body Tempering in this month.”
Jiang Xiaolong did not give up and was still working hard to pursue martial arts.
Because of the fierce beasts, martial arts education only had two years of compulsory education.
If he couldn't reach the fourth tier of Body Tempering by the start of school a month later, he would be forced to drop out of school. The school would focus the resources that originally belonged to them on those students who had reached the fourth tier of Body Tempering.
Without the vicious beast meat provided by the school for free, his martial arts progress would slow down. Moreover, with an extra mouth to feed at home, the burden would also increase.
Although he was already at the third tier of Body Tempering, he was not confident that he could break through to the fourth tier of Body Tempering within a month.
Therefore, Jiang Xiaolong's only hope was to gain something outside the city during this month and buy resources to help him break through to the fourth tier of Body Tempering.
"Xiaolong, you're back. Come and sit down and eat. We've been waiting for you.”
Seeing that her son had returned unscathed, Li Hui heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly pulled him to sit down to eat.
She had been on tenterhooks for the whole day.
However, in this world, if you didn't fight for it, you would die sooner or later.
Even as a mother, she couldn't stop her son from pursuing martial arts. She could only silently endure the torment.
"Mom, Dad, Big Brother!"
After sitting down, Jiang Xiaolong greeted the few close relatives beside him one by one.
He was the second child in the family. Other than his parents, he had an elder brother and a younger brother.
"Let's eat!" Jiang Xiaolong's father, Jiang Yi, smiled and began to eat.
He was a serious person, and when he saw his son return, he could not help but smile.
As a titled martial artist, he knew very well the dangers of scrap picking outside the city.
Not to mention that Jiang Xiaolong was only at the third tier of Body Tempering, even a titled martial artist would be easily killed if they encountered a ferocious beast outside the city.
It could be said that when Jiang Xiaolong went out of the city today, no one in the family was relaxed. They were all worried about him.
However, a poor family like theirs had no other choice but to take risks.
"Mom, I'll go back to my room first." After dinner, Jiang Xiaolong's younger brother, Jiang Xiaoyu, said to Li Hui.
Li Hui glared at Jiang Xiaoyu." Your second brother has been tired for the whole day. Please send your elder brother back to his room first."”
"Let Xiaoyu study first. Big Brother still needs to watch TV for a while. I'll send him off later.”
Jiang Xiaolong's eldest brother, Jiang Hai, was a person in a wheelchair. His lower body was completely paralyzed.
Therefore, every night, Jiang Xiaolong had to clean up Jianghai before he went to bed.
Not only was his brother Jiang Hai disabled, but his father was also disabled.
This was also the reason why Jiang Xiaolong was forced to go out of the city to take risks before he was even eighteen years old.
His family was in dire straits.
The elder brother's lower body was completely paralyzed, and his father only had one arm and one leg.
If he wanted to stand out, if he wanted to achieve success in martial arts, if he wanted to take care of his difficult family, he could only rely on himself. No one could help him.
Of course, Jiang Xiaolong's father and elder brother had experienced what he had experienced. Therefore, although they were worried about him, no one stopped him.
If one wanted to survive in this world, one could only risk their lives without talent.
Furthermore, going out of the city to gain experience was something that everyone had to experience.
Even if Jiang Xiaolong was talented enough to stay in school and continue to cultivate martial arts, the school would arrange for them to go on adventures outside the city every year.
After watching TV for a while, he pushed Yang back to his room and put him to bed.
"Xiaolong, happy birthday!" Before he left, Jiang Hai's voice came from behind.
This warmed his heart.
Although this life was difficult, his family treated him very well.
"Is today my 18th birthday?”
Jiang Xiaolong did not even know that it was his 18th birthday today.
If it was in the peaceful world of his previous life, he would have invited his friends to celebrate and sing karaoke today.
But today, he didn't even have a cake, let alone a friend. He even forgot his birthday.
"Thank you, Big Brother!" He smiled at Jiang Hai.
When he returned to his room, Jiang Xiaolong fell asleep immediately.
He still had to wake up early the next day to practice boxing, and after that, he had to go out of the city to take risks.
When he slept until midnight, he suddenly felt as if his head was about to explode.
In his deep sleep, Jiang Xiaolong suddenly woke up and held his head in pain.
The next moment, a loud voice rang out in his head,""System loading complete. Trillions of times physical potential system activated, 100 times physical potential activated."
