Zhang Che took slow and cautious steps. Although it felt like his movements were very uncoordinated, he didn’t fall down any more.

It took him several minutes to walk about a hundred meters, finally reaching the shore of the island with much difficulty.

Just as he was about to stick his head out a little to look at his reflection on the water, he quickly retreated a few steps and summoned the Purple Jade Condor with a wave of his hand. He had it stand by his side and approached the shore once more.

If there were more exotic beasts in this pond, it’d spell trouble if they were to jump out and bite him while he was checking out his reflection!

After experiencing this transformation, Zhang Che became even more cautious.

The calm surface of the pond was like a giant mirror, reflecting all of Zhang Che’s bare body.

He checked out every corner of his body several times in detail, and even stuck out his tongue to look at it. In the end, he realized, to his gratification, that there weren’t any changes to his body... externally, at least. His face was still as handsome as before, and his skin was still a healthy color.

No, that wasn’t right. There were definitely changes.

Based on the water’s reflection, he discovered that he had grown taller, and more muscular. His originally skinny figure was now a first-rate slim, muscular body, containing explosive strength.

{TL: We Captain America now!}

“This is good... I don’t need to stand on a stool or the stairs when we kiss in the future...”

Zhang Che revealed a pleased smile as he thought of Tielan’s intimidating height. At the very least, he definitely wasn’t shorter than her now!

Very good! With his only weakness compensated for, he could stand proud from now on!

After taking another look at his majestic, golden-ratio body, Zhang Che turned around in satisfaction, walking back to the backpack he’d left on the ground.

The clothes he was wearing before were stained with dust and dirt, unsuitable for wearing any more.

Zhang Che took out a set of spare clothing from his backpack. First, he picked out a pair of boxer briefs and put them on with difficulty. They were tight, and felt pretty uncomfortable.

That was still bearable, however. The key part was that when he tried to put on his spare clothes, he discovered, to his dismay, that his clothes were two sizes smaller than his body, and he couldn’t wear them.

He exerted a little strength subconsciously, and tearing sounds rang out. The t-shirt in his hands was directly torn in two, like it was made of wet paper, unable to withstand the slightest effort.

Zhang Che’s brow furrowed deeply. He had suddenly became so much stronger and was unable to adapt to it at all, causing such troubles so easily the moment he wasn’t paying attention.

Forget it; he was going to remain in the beast world for another ten days or so. This much time was probably enough for him to get used to his new body after he was altered by the demonic flower.

Zhang Che broke out in laughter, shaking his head as he looked at the torn t-shirt in his hand. Such an experience had nearly turned him silly, forgetting that the Myriad Transformation Lizard card could adjust his physique by about five percent.

Mmm, now that his height was close to 1.9m, and his body was about two sizes bigger than before, although he would still be a little taller than his original height after the five percent modification, his old clothes could definitely fit him.

As for whether his close ones would discover his changes after returning from the beast world...

He was only eighteen years old! His body was still developing; wasn’t it normal for him to grow a little taller and a little more muscular!?

With a thought, the Myriad Transformation Lizard card’s ability was activated. Zhang Che’s handsome, childish face was the first to transform into the ordinary appearance of his previous life. After which, his tall, muscular body shrank like a deflating balloon, becoming one size smaller. His height decreased to about 1.8m, and his figure became thinner.

“Mmm, that’s more like it.” Zhang Che nodded in satisfaction after transforming into Sun Che. He retrieved another set of clothing from his backpack and put it on. Although they still felt a little tight, he was able to fit into them.

After packing his things, Zhang Che was about to summon the Rotten Ent Prowler whip and get the Purple Jade Condor to bring him away from his creepy island when his gaze suddenly fell on the bow container by his backpack.

-I wonder if I’m able to draw this bow now...-

The moment this idea came to him, it was like a spark landing on the grassfield, slowly spreading, and turned into a blazing flame.

Zhang Che picked up the bow container and opened it, taking the Falling Star Model X out. He felt like he was only holding onto a stalk of wheat, totally different from the heavy, sinking feeling from before.

He grew even more excited. He held the bow up with one hand, drawing out an arrow from the quiver in the other, nocking it on the bowstring and drawing it back.

There wasn’t much stress to it; he actually drew this bow with a 500kg draw weight with ease! If he hadn’t held back more than half his strength at the last moment, this bow, which cost him several million, might have been pulled apart!

– Si... what kind of a monster have I become?!-

Zhang Che felt shocked, then wonderfully surprised.

From what he felt when he drew the Falling Star Model X, wouldn’t he be able to fully draw a bow with a thousand kilograms draw weight!?

Zhang Che had no doubt that if he punched out with all his strength, he could directly punch through a human skull!

How incredible was that? If he got his hands on a powerful long weapon-type beast card and equipped the Swamp Crocodile King armor, and rode the Golden Elephorse King Hanxue, he’d look like a fierce knight!

No matter if it was Li Yuanba¹, the Conqueror of Western Chu², Yuwen Chengdu³, or whoever, they were nothing compared to Zhang Che if it was simply a contest of strength!

{TL: 1 – Third son of the founding emperor of Tang Dynasty, commonly appearing in literature works and theatrical plays, 2 – Xiang Yu, a warlord from late Qin Dynasty, 3 – A general from late Sui Dynasty in literature. All of them were said to possess inhuman strength.}

After fantasizing a bunch of stuff, Zhang Che felt his right hand, which had been keeping the bowstring drawn, starting to get sore. He hurriedly kept his thoughts in check and aimed at a rock a short distance away, loosening his grip.

Pew... Bam!

A sharp whistle rang out. The M-type armor-piercing arrow directly drilled deep into the mountain rock, followed by an explosion. The mountain rock was blasted apart into a pile of tiny rocks, flying out in all directions.

“Not bad! My archery is still passable when shooting stationary targets. It looks like I have to practice more in the future, and get myself a strong bow. With a bow in the hands of both the frisky monkey and me, our long-distance offensive strength would be really solid!”

Zhang Che felt a little headache after his happiness died down. Other than practicing his swordsmanship, he still had to practice archery. It seemed like his days would become even busier from now on.

Even so, what did it matter if he could become even stronger!?

After packing his things, Zhang Che whistled out, and the Purple Jade Condor circling above after quickly scouting the area descended, standing at his side silently.

“How exciting... I’m really about to fly!”

Now that his physical strength far exceeded that of ordinary people’s, Zhang Che no longer had to hang under the Purple Jade Condor’s talons pitifully. Instead, he could sit on its back, experiencing the joy of flying in the sky.

He secured both the backpack and the bow container on his back, and jumped up onto the Purple Jade Condor’s wide back. Zhang Che tightened his legs around the bird’s waist, his hands holding tightly onto a tuft of the strong purple feathers,and ordered, “Come on, let’s take off!”

The Purple Jade Condor’s talons bent and pushed against the ground. Its massive body immediately bounced up, its huge wings spreading open at the same time. With just a few beats, a strong current was generated, lifting the Purple Jade Condor into the air.

Zhang Che held on tightly to the Purple Jade Condor’s back with both his arms and legs, feeling the strong wind blowing across his face. However, his body didn’t move in the slightest, and he let out a radiant smile.

From now on, his travel speed would be countless times faster than before!
