Supreme Human System

Chapter 67: Eating Stone powder

Mitchell broad swept the crowd with his sharp gaze. It felt like a knife had scraped past their face, itching their facial skin!

Mitchell turned and walked to a corner of the practice field. In that corner stood a tall and thick stone.

He stood in front of the large stone. He looked up and suddenly sent a force towards the stone.

"Th-ud!"

A crisp sound erupted. This large stone had been broken down and splattered with Mitchel's punch!

Wow

The clan members of the three clans gasped at seeing this scene. The surrounding people were shocked and couldn't stop grinning. They had never seen such a terrific display of skills.

Mitchell didn't use qi or other energy to enforce his punch. It was a force that solely comes from his body. Moreover, he didn't use much force.

James and his friend's eyebrows jumped. If it were a qi punch, he would have been easily able to do the same. But a casual hand punch to bring down a large Stone as if he was cutting grass was a shocking display of power.

Mitchell dragged a part of a large stone that weighed tens of kilograms as if it was a small rock. He threw it before the members of the three clans.

As the people looked at the broken stone, they recalled Mitchell's words. He had said that he would teach them one skill. Was it this super punch?

Thinking of this, many of them couldn't help but anticipate it. This move was too cool. Even if they couldn't match Captain Mitchell's body strength and cultivation, just a tenth of the power would be extremely cool!

"Today, I visited Dwivedi Clan to teach a movement skill to all of you. But I found a particular problem in each cultivator. So, I changed my plan. The skill I'm teaching you is neither a movement skill nor a combat skill. It's a mystic technique! It's a cornerstone skill of the Elite Royal Force. It's priceless! If you can learn it well, the path of cultivation will be smoother for you, and it will greatly increase your body's strength. It will also increase your survivability!"

Although, Mitchell said he came to Dwivedi Practice arena to teach them a skill. But actually, he wanted to convince Kritos to join the Elite Royal force by teaching him superb movement skills. A movement skill is quite rare in the region where the energy in the air is low. Besides, he thought of teaching him a high movement skill.

Nonetheless, for this, Mitchell first has to take permission from the general of the Elite Royal force or directly from the king. So, he tells the general about the appearance of the late one. In response, the general told him to do anything and convince the late one to join the Kingdom's elite royal force.

The general told Mitchell to personally visit Dwivedi Clan and do them a favor by teaching him a mystic skill. But alas, the naive princess requests him to teach the skill to all young cultivators of Rewa city. She was against the priority which was given to an individual even though that boy was a late one.

The Late one was nothing without a good resource and in the vast poor condition, he will likely never pass through the Foundation realm.

Mitchell's words aroused the curiosity of the people. Not only did it help in their cultivation, but it also increased their strength and even survivability. It was a foundation skill of the Elite Royal Force!

They start imagining having a pure strength like Captain Michell. 

Their battle power would surely arise from the earth to heaven.

This mystic technique sure sounded great. What was it?

"You!" Michell pointed at James, "Step forward!"

James intelligently stepped forward in front of Captain Mitchell. He was a part nervous and a part excited.

"This mystic technique will be demonstrated by you." 

James was delighted hearing those words; a good outcome had fallen into his lap.

Hahaha!

James laughed in his heart greatly. He was going to personally impart the mystic technique to himself. Would he not learn it well?

Although Captain Mitchell did not say anything, he had appreciated me after all. It was expected, I am one of the strongest young cultivators in the entire Rewa city.

With today's practice target being that large Stone, I would at least be able to crush down a large stone with a pure punch!

As James was itching to try, Shortly, Captain Mitchell crushed the small portion of the big stone with his both hands.

He applied pressure from his both hands to the small stone.

Crk...Crk...Crk!

The small rock crumbles into dust. The whitish brown powder appears in between his hands. 

Following that, Mitchell gave the dust to James and said to him, "You! Quickly Eat this powder !"

With those words, the excited James nearly tumbled, planting his head into the ground.

What? What the fuck?

Eat this powder of the stone!

Eat the power of the stone!

Eat the powder-

Eat

The words rang in James's head. He couldn't believe Captain Mitchell.

I couldn't have misheard it! 

Oh? Do you not understand?" Seeing James hesitate, Mitchell's expression turned cold.

"I..." James was speechless. He felt that Captain Mitchell was teasing him.

Did Captain Mitchell hear his mocking of Kritos and was purposely teasing him?

But no matter how discontent he was, he did not dare to retort Captain Mitchell.

At that moment, the members of the three clams and surrounding people looked at James with pity.

"You, what are you idling for? You were ordered to eat this powder, did you not hear?"

Mitchell saw James's reluctance and reprimanded him.

Now, James did not care what the reason was. He decided that since it was commanded by Captain Mitchell, any order from the Captain had to be complied. After all, it wasn't just because of his rotten luck.

"I...I..." James made up his mind despite his bitter face. He said, "I'll eat..."

James glanced at the powder with tearless grief. This powder could be used as a catalyst to build a house. I'm being treated like a rock shipworm!

Seeing Mitchell's unfriendly face, James could only resign to fate as he stuffed the powder into his mouth with his eyes closed.

This taste was an indescribable 'enjoyment.'

James felt as if his throat was being torn apart. He had managed to swallow a fraction of powder with extreme difficulty. He looked at Mitchell helplessly. It read, "Is that enough?"

But Captain Mitchell simply said, "Carry on!"

James almost fainted!

Why? Why are you torturing me?

He was great at lifting stone rollers, crushing stone with qi enforce punch, but eating stone powder was torture!

"Lord Mitchell, I don't understand this mystic technique?" John Augusta had originally thought that Lord Mitchell was teasing James, letting him understand the importance of following orders.

But now it didn't look right. It appeared as if making James eat the powder of stone was a part of the mystic technique.

If so, then even he had to eat the powder in a while. So he asked to be sure.

Towards John Augusta, Captain Mitchell's attitude was better. He said, "This mystic technique is known as the 'Earth Swallowing Technique.' It's a technique used to train your stomach and digestive abilities! A person who accomplishes much in the Earth Swallowing Technique can eat as much as they want every meal. It is rumored some can even eat any things which come from the earth, hence its name."

The members of the three clans and surrounding people had an expression on their faces. Simply stated, this Earth Swallowing Technique was just a technique for eating.

Isn't this a gluttony skill? Can this be considered a mystic technique?

Seeing the expression on the members of the warrior preparation camp, Captain Mitchell knew what was on their minds.

He said disdainfully, "You people have an exposure similar to an ant. How dare you evaluate the famous skill of the Elite Royal force! Simply ridiculous!"

"Training a warrior's stomach is very important! With a good heart and lungs, you can endure longer and fight harder. But being good at fighting can't be better than cultivation. With your stomach strong, it will be a benefit to cultivation!"

"For Apprentice Realm, you may be moving stone rollers, fighting and using qi to enforce your body. Where does all this energy come from? It's from your meals!"

"Some warriors with a well-trained stomach have an astonishing appetite. They can finish a large Monster in three days. The amount of nutrition they absorb will naturally be more. Their muscles will grow stronger, and their strength increases naturally."

Captain Mitchell's voice was loud. Kritos was moved by his speech.

Indeed, a warrior's energy output was terrific. This energy had to come from somewhere. And that energy source for Apprentice Realm cultivator had to come from their meals and the surrounding environment.

Meals were energy. If one could eat more, there would be natural benefits.

Hence, having a good stomach allowed one an advantage!

Captain Mitchell's mystic technique was the Earth Swallowing Technique.

It was a fundamental technique for practicing the arts!

Captain Mitchell carried on, "The warriors from the Capital, practice the Earth Swallowing Technique with high ranked monster meat. As it is dangerous for all of you to hunt high-ranked monsters, you can't practice by eating them. However, practicing the Earth Swallowing Technique with the stone power is still useful!"

At this moment, Kritos was reluctant to eat the powder of stone like other people. However, the greed was kicking his ass continuously. 

"Maybe I can create a skill like that, but...I don't have SP," Kritos sigh

Even if Kritos had enough SP, he would never waste it on a similar skill that can be learned for free.
