Chapter 4: The Strengthening Effects of The Dragon Pearl

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yang Tian started dreaming amidst his slumber.

He dreamt that he turned into a dragon and was traveling the vast world. Regardless of the Monster, they all bowed down to him as soon as they saw him as a show of respect. He roared, and both heaven and earth trembled as the color of the sky shifted.

The feeling of power made Yang Tian feel very comfortable.

At 6.30 am, Yang Tian was woken up from his sweet dream by the alarm on his cell phone.

Yang Tian rubbed his eyes and got up.

“Ah, it was a dream! But it was a good dream…”

Yang Tian yawned and mumbled to himself.

As he turned his head, he saw a little green dragon lying next to his pillow, blissfully asleep.

“Ha! So it wasn’t all a dream!” Yang Tian smiled.

Because the dream was so life-like, he had assumed that the little green dragon was also part of the dream.

Picking up his cell phone, Yang Tian discovered a message he had yet to read. It was sent to him by Qin Fei, and its contents were asking why he did not pick up her call and whether anything happened to him.

Yang Tian then thought about the night before when he drank the water that was soaked in the Dragon Pearl by the little green dragon. Not long after, he felt extremely tired and had unknowingly fallen asleep.

He immediately thought to call Qin Fei but he noticed that it was not 7 am yet. Qin Fei must still be asleep. Yang Tian then went out to exercise as it was his habit.

Yang Tian had a quirk. Regardless of whatever troubles he faced, he would be completely fine after a night’s sleep. Perhaps it was that he paid it no mind, but the reality was that he repressed everything and did his best to cheer himself up.

Yang Tian started running and realized that he was completely different from the day before. His entire body felt as though it was immeasurably stronger. There were not many people outside at that time so he did not need to worry about running into anyone. He picked up his pace.

Starting from the main road in front of his eight-story apartment, he ran five kilometers to the right and then turned back. A round trip like that was roughly ten kilometers.

To a normal person, they would be extremely tired after completing that route. However, from years of training, Yang Tian felt very comfortable doing this regime. He would start at 6.35 am, and return at roughly 7.30 am. He would then shower and eat his breakfast before getting on the bus at 7.50 am to arrive at school by 8.20 am.

However on that day, because he was running faster and faster, Yang Tian had unknowingly ran four kilometers in 20 minutes. He also did not feel too tired and he figured he could still pick up the pace and finish the course in roughly ten minutes.

Yang Tian could tell that his body had grown stronger.

Other than his speed and endurance, had his strength improved?

Yang Tian looked around to see if there was anything for him to test his strength with.

“Stop! Thief!”

At that moment, a woman’s voice cried out from an alley next to him.

Soon after that, a young man in a black leather jacket came running out. He carried a pink bag in his hands, and chasing after him was a lady with curly hair in high heels. However, she was too slow and in the blink of an eye, the young man had more than a ten-meter lead.

Tianxiong city was considered fairly safe and such incidents rarely occurred. Yang Tian, having grown to his age, still had not witnessed these occurrences happening often. He did not think about it and immediately started giving chase.

Yang Tian did not need to worry about his body’s strength at that moment and with a burst of speed, he closed the 100-meter gap between him and the snatch thief within ten seconds.

Yang Tian blocked the thief’s way.

“Bro, don’t. Don’t block my way. If not, you’re dead!” The thief pulled out a dagger that was roughly one foot long and pointed it in a threatening manner at Yang Tian as he huffed and puffed.

Yang Tian knit his brows and solemnly said, “Put down the bag, and you’re free to go!”

If it were in the past, Yang Tian may have had second thoughts upon seeing the blade in the thief’s hand. However, he no longer had thoughts of fear in his mind.

“You have a death wish!” The thief suddenly yelled and stabbed Yang Tian with the dagger.

Yang Tian’s eyes narrowed, and he suddenly realized that the thief’s actions were very slow in his eyes.

‘It really is true! I’ve grown stronger! My reflexes are better than a normal person…’ Yang Tian thought to himself excitedly. He raised his hand, grabbed the thief by the wrist, and wrenched it with force.

“Crack!”

The sound of bones snapping could be heard as Yang Tian used all his force in the wrench, snapping the thief’s wrist.

“Ah… ah….”

The thief clutched his wrist and writhed on the ground in agony. Yang Tian smiled and looked at his hands. He figured his strength did increase as well since he was able to snap a man’s wrist. Doing so would require at least double the strength of an average person!

Police sirens could be heard in the distance, snapping Yang Tian back to his senses. He thought it would be very troublesome if he stayed there, so he left the scene hastily.

Yang Tian returned home before 7.30 am.

If it were a normal day, Yang Tian would be completely drenched in sweat when he returned from his run. However, he barely broke a sweat even though his activities were far more intense than usual.

Yang Tian’s mother, Wang Hong, had just finished making breakfast. When she saw that Yang Tian had returned, she told him to wash up and have breakfast.

Yang Tian acknowledged and returned to his room to check on the little green dragon.

The little green dragon was still fast asleep. Yang Tian did not want to disturb it so he covered it with his blanket. He then grabbed a fresh change of clothes to the bathroom and took a cold shower.

After changing into a clean T-shirt and a pair of jeans, Yang Tian wolfed down two bowls of gruel before returning to his room. He picked up his phone and called Qin Fei.

“Hello, Qin Fei. I slept early last night so I didn’t pick up your call,” Yang Tian hurriedly said as soon as the call connected.

However, an old man’s voice came from the other side. “I’m Qin Fei’s grandfather. You must be Yang Tian? Could you come over today? Jade Residences, Villa No. 18.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the call ended and there was only beeping on the other end.

‘Xiao Fei’s granddad? Why would he want to see me?’ With this question in mind, Yang Tian grabbed his wallet and left his room. He said goodbye to his parents and walked out the door.



Jade Residences was a large residential neighborhood situated at the foot of a hill in the city center. It was a very affluent area and was the home of rich businessmen and high-level Warriors.

Yang Tian took a cab to the entrance of Jade Residences. After getting out, he walked toward the main entrance where he was blocked by an armed guard.

“I’m Yang Tian.” Yang Tian gave the man his name. He thought that since Qin Fei’s grandfather had called him there, he must have already informed security.

As it turned out, the guard snapped off a salute to him. “Please enter!”

Following the order of the villas in the area, Yang Tian quickly arrived at the main gate of Villa No. 18.

This villa did not look very luxurious on the outside. On the contrary, it looked a little old. However, it was larger than the other villas around it and had a private garden. When Yang Tian arrived, the door immediately opened and a middle-aged man smiled at him as he said, “Yang Tian, Old Master Qin is waiting for you inside. Please follow me.”

“Alright!” Yang Tian nodded.

Yang Tian was quickly led to one of the living rooms of the villa.
