Chapter 13: The Leg Technique Begins to Take Shape
Although she didn’t know its abilities, this Medicine Girl looked much more pleasing than the other chess pieces. Yuyin was glad she had saved 2 Soul Charm Value yesterday.
The ancient female spirit reminded her, “The same type of chess pieces can share experiences and insights with each other, so the more similar chess pieces there are, the greater the chance of giving birth to high-star chess pieces.”
“Star level?”
“So the star level can be improved?”
“However, it requires continuous practice and certain opportunities. In short, the more similar chess pieces, the greater the chance. After upgrading the star level, the combat power of the chess pieces will increase significantly,” the spirit explained.
Yuyin looked at the two little ghost chess pieces and shook her head, “Chess pieces with low combat power, even if they upgrade their star level, how strong can they become?”
She was still more interested in that female chess piece.
“Female chess pieces are usually very aloof and difficult to charm. Moreover, you are a woman yourself, so you must be cautious. If you fail, you will lose your last 2 Soul Charm…”
“Soul Charm.” Yuyin said decisively. Didn’t you say not to hesitate?
Ding~ A clear and ethereal sound rang out.
Soul Charm successful!
Although the probability was said to be low, Yuyin had never failed even once. Was the probability really that low?
The Medicine Girl appeared in the starting area, but there was only one.
Compared to the five little ghosts, her aura was clearly that of an elite.
Yuyin examined her briefly; the Medicine Girl was about 1.67 meters tall, slender and beautiful, exuding an ethereal aura, like a lady from an ancient painting.
However, this was still a chess piece and could not communicate with Yuyin.
Under Yuyin’s guidance, the Medicine Girl set off.
Although Yuyin was satisfied with obtaining the Medicine Girl, she looked at her zero Soul Charm Value and began to ponder.
Yesterday’s Soul Charm Value was purely coincidental; it seemed to have shocked everyone, breaking someone’s conclusion… I wonder if this is a pattern, and if there are other possibilities?
Shocking everyone, it wasn’t something that could just be done; scaring others directly should be useless. Although she hadn’t tried it, Yuyin wasn’t foolish.
It seemed she needed to think carefully about how to obtain more Soul Charm.
As Yuyin thought, she brushed her hair, changed into a set of white underwear, put on her school uniform, and headed to school for morning practice.
……
Yuyin already had good endurance, but this morning’s run felt particularly refreshing, full of energy. Even with a slightly excessive weight on her chest, she didn’t feel too tired.
The increase in source energy value was something Yuyin didn’t fully understand, but the improvement in her physique was very obvious.
At school, everyone was trying to find ways to increase their source energy value, which was extremely difficult for ordinary people. At the same time, they also invested more time in physical training, showing how important the body was.
As for the source energy value, although Yuyin was continuously increasing it with the God-Eating Chess, she had no idea how to cultivate it herself. She had searched online, but it seemed that the secret methods for cultivating source energy were as precious as the recipe for Coca-Cola, and she couldn’t find anything!
Fortunately, she had a method of improvement that others might find hard to imagine.
When Yuyin finished her morning run and was drinking water and wiping sweat by the track, a message came from within her.
Her source energy value had finally reached 70.
Clear and sweet mineral water unconsciously leaked from Yuyin’s rosy lips and the soft bottle mouth, flowing down the corner of her mouth… The sparkling droplets fell on her chest, splashing pure water.
Yuyin was astonished… she suddenly realized the terrifying nature of the God-Eating Chess within her.
It had only been a day, and she was already at 70…
To know that the highest girl in the school, the daughter of a prominent family, Liu Li, was only at 76. She had probably been cultivating since she was a child, right? She absolutely couldn’t let Liu Li know; otherwise, she would surely spit blood.
She shocked everyone once, and after a night’s sleep, she was at 70?
Although Yuyin also knew that after reaching 70, the speed of improvement would slow down significantly again, but this was still quite exaggerated. Moreover, if she could obtain more Soul Charm, she could recruit more chess pieces to help her cultivate!
“One book?” Yuyin’s face flushed slightly, breathing excitedly; she finally saw hope.
In the following days, Yuyin focused on attending classes and exercising at school, perhaps communicating more with Ying Luo to understand some things about this world. In the evenings, she practiced leg techniques, while the chess pieces in the God-Eating Chess were also tirelessly working to help her cultivate.
However, the Medicine Girl, whom Yuyin had high hopes for, did not actively seek out monsters to challenge. Instead, she carried her bamboo basket, wandering through the ancient forests, only retaliating when attacked by monsters. This Medicine Girl was clearly very powerful, successfully countering attacks multiple times, but she refused to take the initiative, which greatly reduced her source spirit output.
Early Friday morning, the old Weiming South Road was still dark. In a quiet corner of the Shikumen, Yuyin wore a white tank top and a pair of non-transparent black leggings. She had a white headband tied on her head, her long hair casually brushed back, taking deep breaths of the fresh air.
Swish!
Yuyin suddenly kicked out, her long beautiful leg shooting straight like a sword, accompanied by a fragrant breeze.
The kick created wind; this was not just swinging a stick; it required extremely high stability and speed.
She continued to kick out several times, fluid and swift, maintaining perfect balance, as if an invisible airflow surrounded her.
Yuyin’s chest rose and fell slightly, “Huh… this ancient temple leg technique seems to have taken initial shape.”
At this moment, her source energy value had also reached 73. Indeed, the increase was slowing down. In these three days, she had only gained 3 points. At this rate, considering it would become even more difficult later, she might surpass Liu Li in about half a month?
“Damn it, are you going to sleep? What are you making noise about?” Suddenly, an old lady’s voice came from the old house. (In local dialect: Don’t sleep? What are you making noise for?)
Yuyin’s face turned red, and she quickly ran away.
It was hard to find a quiet space; after all, practicing on the street was too embarrassing, and now her kicking power was no longer suitable for practicing at home.

Early in the morning, a heavy motorcycle roared past, stopping across from the school.
“Zhang Biaoyang, when are you going to get your shoes?” Another rich second-generation student from the school, driving a BMW M3, happened to pass by, rolled down the window, and waved.
“Damn it!” Zhang Biaoyang’s face twitched with anger, gripping the motorcycle handle tightly. This week, he had become the laughingstock of the school!
Behind him sat his girlfriend, Chen Yan, who was also upset seeing her boyfriend humiliated.
“I’ll help you deal with that little bitch, Xia Yuyin!” Chen Yan’s nails dug into Zhang Biaoyang’s broad leather jacket, her heavily made-up eyes revealing a hint of malice.
