Chapter 15: With food in your belly, you can exercise with peace of mind!

  After a day and two nights of uninterrupted trekking, when they finally returned to the tribe, Xia Zuo finally put his mind at ease. The joyful Mangke beastmen, disregarding their fatigue from the long journey, lit bonfires and danced in primitive worship, thanking the great war god Kampas for granting them a bountiful harvest, thanking the great war god Kampas for granting them a great and wise leader.

  "Hahaha... Boss... Boss... We did it!!" Bigu was so excited that he rushed over, his words tumbling out in a rush as he hastily handed the animal hide to Xia Zuo.

  He took the letter from Xia Sha and saw that on it were recorded some numbers in ugly handwriting, like a dog's crawl. It was only then that Xia Sha began to recognize these ghostly symbols.

  Grains, 378 bags, eighty-five long spears made of fine steel, forty brand-new large swords made of fine steel, five old large swords, forty-nine sets of armor, five sets of fine steel horse armor, three pure-blooded war horses, and finally, gold coins, 5,768 pieces, and 312 gems of various colors.

  "Boss, with these grains and weapons, our Saiya tribe will definitely become the strongest tribe on the Broken Stone Wasteland!" Biggu was so excited that he almost had to punch his chest hard to vent his excitement. His eyes looked at Xia Zuo with full admiration, and this admiring gaze was exactly the same in every Saiya tribe's Mank beastman's eyes.

  Xia Zhaoyi didn't expect such a huge gain this time, and it's not an exaggeration to say that he became rich overnight. Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Xia Zhaoyi tried to make his face look normal, but a smile still appeared at the corner of his mouth.

  "No need to be so excited, our tribe will become stronger and stronger. How's the cleanup of the traces?" Put away the excitement in your heart, it's not the time to rejoice yet. Those sentries won't fail to notice something if they dare to chase after us, and with their current strength, it would be hard to resist.

  Bei Gu now completely believes every word of Xia Zuo, even when Xia Zuo tells him that Kanpas is a woman he won't oppose it. He nods frantically and says "Boss you're right, the strong winds have already erased all the traces on the barren land, Tala and the others have returned and are dividing things with those little rascals!"

  "Haha..." Xia Zuo suddenly laughed strangely, leaning in close to Bi Gu's ear and whispering "Put away all the weapons and armor, go tell those stinky brats that starting tomorrow, we're going to train. Anyone who doesn't qualify isn't allowed to spray those things at me!"

  The tribe now has this many people, and since it's impossible to increase the number, they can only work on quality. Previously, it was because conditions didn't allow for it, but now that there is enough food, Shiaso decides to start his training plan without any worries.

  And he is growing stronger every day, but if he doesn't train hard to tap his potential, wouldn't that be a waste of his Saiyan heritage?

  Natsusa finished speaking, and Hikaru's eyes lit up with a strange smile. With that, Tarara and the others began to train with those weapons and armor, but at that time they couldn't exert even 12% of their strength.

  Dawn breaks, a streak of morning glow tears through the dark wilderness, and a row of huge black shadows are galloping towards the dawn on the horizon.

  As the sunlight grew stronger, these huge black shadows also showed their outlines, but they were large stones of various shapes, and under the large stones, one by one, were Mongol beastmen wearing simple animal skins, sweating profusely as they held up the large stones and ran swiftly.

  The shortest and thinnest Xia Zuo, holding a pitch-black boulder twice his size, ran at the forefront of the team. Compared to before, some muscle outlines had slowly appeared on his thin body.

  Although as a modern law-abiding citizen, Xia Zuo is not proficient in killing techniques, but after training to have a strong and perfect body, can't good steel be forged into a good sword?

  Xia Zuo was followed by forty Mongol beastmen, in addition to the initial twelve of Bi Gu, Xia Zuo also selected a few young Mongol beastmen from the tribe to follow and train with them.

  And these beastmen boys who were crazy about Xia Zuo did not disappoint him either, with the same intense training as Bi Gu and others, they gritted their teeth and held on.

  These massive stones were all personally selected by Xia Zuo, with the ones held by the twelve ancient people weighing around three hundred catties each. The ones held by the young beastmen weighed about two hundred catties, while the one in Xia Zuo's hand was a staggering six hundred catties.

  Running is simple, but it can exercise every muscle in the body, especially weight-bearing running, which is a test of physical and mental strength. Beastmen have strong bodies by nature, what's left is to explore.

  They set out from the village in the middle of the night and have been running for four hours until sunrise, even the physically fit Summer Sazians are getting exhausted.

  Sweat as big as beans covered his face, the arms that held up the giant stone were sore and aching, the heavy footsteps began to lose strength, even his head was dizzy and swollen. As for Bi Gu, all twelve of them now had light and floating footsteps, while the remaining half-grown children ran almost losing their minds, relying only on their faith to support themselves.

  If it weren't for the fervent gaze of the posthumous Moke beast, Xia Zha would not be able to save face, and with his untrained willpower, he absolutely wouldn't have been able to persist to this extent.

  "Faster, a bit faster!" Biting his teeth tightly, Xia Zuo already felt that his body was almost at its limit, yet he still spoke in an icy tone.

  His swollen head was like a sudden explosion, and his whole body only felt a sense of relief. A weak body also produced a hot flow from somewhere, but it really existed. Xia Zuo's weak body immediately quickened its pace again.

  Sweat-drenched eyes sparkled with genuine excitement as Xia Zuo knew that the potential within his body had been tapped once again.

  Although his body had almost no strength, in the moment of transcending the limit, he could feel the boundless and infinite potential hidden in his body, now what he could control was just an extremely weak thread of it.

  As the sun slowly rose, after another hour of stumbling and running, having completely drained the last bit of strength from everyone's bodies, a group of over 40 people finally ran back to the outside of the tribe's five-meter-high earth wall.

  They stood in neat rows before the tribal gate. Although their bodies were completely powerless due to acid swelling, not a single Mank beastman put down the giant stone without Shasa's order.

  Especially after seeing the admiring eyes of the old and young Munk beasts in the tribe, a burst of energy was born out of thin air in his tired body, and his body straightened up again, making himself look even more majestic. After all, following the training of the war god messenger, the leader of the Saiya tribe, is the highest honor for every beastman in the Saiya tribe.

  He glanced at those who were deliberately standing up straight and smiled secretly in his heart, "It seems that they have not reached their limit yet, and they still have the strength to stand up straight!"

  "Now, do a hundred deep squats with weights!" Xia Zuo shouted and his own sore body was the first to start squatting. The first thirty were barely manageable.

  But after forty, Xia Zuo felt the muscles in his legs start to twitch, and the boulder in his hand felt like it was getting heavier with each squat!

  "Get up!"

  With a forceful push from the soles of his feet, every last bit of strength was squeezed out of his withered muscles, and Xia Zuo was the first to complete one hundred deep squats, shouting loudly all the while.

  "Ah!!" The consecutive crazy howls, although each one was very difficult, but when the last Munk youth finished a hundred deep squats, the whole tribe responded with cheers and roars. With such a leader and warriors, their Saiya tribe would surely prosper.

  "Time to eat now!" The intense physical exertion had already made Xia Zuo's stomach rumble loudly, and if there wasn't enough food, he really wouldn't dare to be so reckless.

  He casually tossed the boulder aside, and Xia Zuo didn't sit down. Instead, he led a group of soldiers to form a horse stance on the spot, eating while standing like this.

  In the morning, they ran with heavy loads towards the sunrise. At noon, they practiced speed training, deep squats and horse steps. In the evening, they engaged in actual combat drills. After being freed from worries about food, the warriors of the Saiya tribe devoted all their passion to training.

  A month's time, outside the tribal wall, a giant stone was randomly placed, getting bigger and bigger. Tens of figures agilely held stones on the giant stone, jumping frogs, sweat splashing, the upper body's smooth muscles outlined perfect lines, every movement contained powerful explosive force.

  "Eighteen ninety-two..." The frontmost Xia Zuo held up a giant stone, disregarding the sweat all over his face and loudly shouted, "Brothers, add oil, we'll have dinner when we reach two thousand!"

  Compared with a month ago, Xia Zuo's skin had obviously darkened a lot, and his originally thin body now bulged with solid muscles.

  Although the same training time, Xia Zuo's training volume was more than five times that of an ordinary Mankai beastman. The Saiyan physique, born for battle, under the extreme training that was almost destructive, near collapse from exhaustion countless times, Xia Zuo continued to surpass his physical limits, discovering the enormous potential within his body.

  Although it didn't have the terrifying doubling of combat power like Saiyans when they're on the brink of death, Xia Zuo's growth was also abnormally frightening.

  Originally having narrowly escaped death twice, Xia Zuo's strength had already surpassed that of Bi Gu and the others by a significant margin. Now, after this month of training, he has far exceeded everyone else. The afternoon combat training sessions have become over 40 Munk warriors ganging up on Xia Zuo alone.

  From the initial embarrassment, in just one month's time, Xia Zuo gradually mastered many practical skills and clearly felt that even if 40 or more Mank Beastmen were to attack him together, they would no longer be able to exert any pressure on him, even if the opponent was also growing at a similar rapid pace.

  Similarly, the Saiyans' most obvious weakness, Xaya hasn't forgotten to train, and the feeling of powerlessness when caught by Gure's tail is still vivid in his memory.

  As the only weakness of Saiyans, this weakness is not so easy to overcome. Even if Xia Zuo trains hard, it's just a slight movement of his fingers when his tail is pulled.

  "Hmm..." When the count reached two thousand, Xia Zuo was the first to jump down to the ground, holding a ton of bar-shaped giant stone in his hand. The moment his feet landed on the ground made the ground tremble for a few moments.

  "Alright, that's it for today, let's head back to the village!" Shasa called out to the Manku people who were following him, jumping down from the giant boulder, their bodies stiff and sore with fatigue.

  Suddenly, Xia Zuo's eyebrows twitched first, and a vigilant gaze appeared in his eyes. A faint, disordered footsteps sound came from afar. Xia Zuo jumped onto the giant rock and looked into the distance, only to see a small black dot emerging from the horizon. Judging by its figure, it should be a young Mank Beastman.

  "What's going on?" Each warrior realized something was wrong, jumped onto the giant rock to look around, and furrowed their brows in puzzlement.

  "Lord, Lord... something's wrong, it's happened!" Finally saw the figures of Xia Zhe and others on the giant stone, the young Mank Beastman's flustered face finally showed a hint of surprise, and he hastily shouted loudly.
