"If I don't synthesize, what if I just put items into the Synthesis Panel… would that work?"
This idea had actually crossed Luo Xiu's mind when the Synthesis Panel first appeared.
But back then, there were only two synthesis slots, so he didn't think much about it.
Now it was different.
The upgraded Intermediate Synthesis Panel had sixteen synthesis slots!
That meant sixteen spaces.
"Just treating it as temporary storage, obviously this could serve as a storage ring!"
Luo Xiu felt a surge of excitement inside.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
"Let's try it!"
Without hesitation, Luo Xiu grabbed the Mystic Yang Infinity Elixir and the Martial Arts True Understanding manual and placed them into the Synthesis Panel.
He didn't press synthesize; although the Panel warned that these two items couldn't be synthesized together, something interesting happened.
The Mystic Yang Infinity Elixir and the manual appeared inside the synthesis boxes, but physically, both items disappeared from reality.
"Hahaha!"
"Yes! This works!"
"The Synthesis Panel really has storage functionality!"
Not satisfied with just two items, Luo Xiu shoved in some mutated meat and vegetables, and even the Advanced Golden Lion blood—all stuffed in without care.
With sixteen slots, there was plenty of room for some meat.
"Let's test it out!"
Luo Xiu was heading to the Martial Arts Hall to buy Elixirs. He looked at all the items stored in the Panel and walked out the door.
Along the way, he kept glancing at the Synthesis Panel, afraid the items would vanish. But he was overthinking.
After buying supplies at the Martial Arts Hall, everything was still intact in all sixteen slots.
This meant the Synthesis Panel had sixteen storage spaces and could serve as temporary storage.
"Now I don't have to worry about stuff being stolen at home!"
Items stored in the Synthesis Panel couldn't be detected by anyone.
It was basically a portable storage space.
"Just discovered another new feature of the Synthesis Panel!"
Luo Xiu happily went and bought ten printers, planning to print more copies of Martial Arts True Understanding and Thunderclap Palm to store in the basement as synthesis fodder.
After shopping, Luo Xiu hurried home.
Along the way, he kept checking the Synthesis Panel—all items still there.
"Finally, I can relax!"
At home, he checked the delivery time of supplies from the Martial Arts Hall—about half an hour left.
Just enough time to plan what to synthesize tonight.
…
Meanwhile, at the Lin Family in Su City.
Lin Qiuli sat on the floor in her training clothes, face flushed and sweaty, panting hard.
The static strength training just now had exhausted her badly.
Her toned arms still trembled continuously.
Step! Step!
Urgent footsteps sounded outside the training room. Lin Qiuli quickly stood up.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Three knocks on the door, followed by a gentle voice: "Qiuli, may I come in, Dad?"
"No problem!"
Lin Qiuli wiped sweat from her forehead and neck with a towel.
A tall figure pushed open the door, sharp features with a bit of stubble, looking somewhat weathered.
He was Lin Qiuli's father, Lin Hongyi—one of Su City's top ten Hidden Strength experts!
"Dad!"
Lin Qiuli greeted him. Lin Hongyi nodded but frowned slightly at the training machine nearby showing 3 tons.
Looking a bit concerned, he sighed: "I know your Martial Examination preliminary test results."
"Sorry, Dad, I've let you down—"
"What's there to be sorry about? Did you do something wrong?"
Lin Hongyi glared at her: "1.7 tons pushing force, 12 tons punch force, is that not good enough?"
"When I was your age, I wasn't even qualified to be a Quasi-Warrior!"
"Qiuli, you've always worked hard. I want you to surpass me, but not by going to such extremes!"
He gestured toward the strength training machine: "Too much is just as bad as too little, understand?"
"…"
Lin Qiuli pursed her lips, saying nothing.
"Alright, it's not your fault you didn't get first!"
"Tell me about that first-place Luo Xiu—what's his deal?"
Lin Hongyi casually sat on a machine. Lin Qiuli draped her towel on her shoulder and leaned against a mat.
"This Luo Xiu, half a month ago his arm strength was only around 200–300 kg!"
"He said he met the Grandmaster, who gave him some Elixirs that boosted his strength overnight!"
"Today's test showed pushing force over 2009 kg. Honestly… I was quite shocked!"
Lin Qiuli had trained rigorously under her father's guidance, never feeling anyone at Su City No.2 Middle School could challenge her.
Even Su Yi was never taken seriously by her.
But Luo Xiu's test shattered her confidence completely.
"2009 kg pushing force…"
"That's really hard to imagine, but—"
Lin Hongyi took a deep breath:
"In the past, on the beast battlefield, I heard rumors of people breaking the human strength limit!"
"Why didn't you ever tell me?"
"Isn't the theoretical human arm pushing limit 2000 kg?"
Lin Qiuli asked, confused.
Lin Hongyi shook his head:
"I don't really know. In fact, 2000 kg is considered the human limit, but… there are always exceptions!"
"Like the Grandmaster breaking many unknown human limits!"
"Maybe this Luo Xiu just broke that limit?"
Lin Hongyi smiled but then his expression turned serious:
"Many Grandmasters proposed a theory of 'Strength Tempering' before becoming Warriors."
"The stronger your base strength, the higher your ultimate peak!"
"Maybe Luo Xiu is a Grandmaster's experiment—to test the true human strength limit."
Lin Qiuli looked puzzled:
"Dad, can I try too?"
"Not worth it!"
Lin Hongyi shook his head:
"I don't know how he got to 2009 kg, but at your level, every 100 kg increase requires physical and strength tempering plus resource support!"
"It might take five years just to get from 1700 to 2000 kg. Many have tried and failed!"
"If successful, the media would definitely report it!"
"If you spend five years training Jingdao instead, you could become a Hidden Strength Warrior quickly!"
"Training raw strength might not be worth the effort…"
Lin Qiuli understood her father's analysis but had her own thoughts:
"Dad, maybe Warriors focus too much on power-ups and neglect basic training. Since Luo Xiu achieved it, there must be a method!"
"And he broke 2009 kg in just a few days!"
"That's what puzzles me. So I say he's a Grandmaster's experiment!"
"Of course, there's another possibility!"
Lin Hongyi's eyes narrowed. Lin Qiuli quickly asked:
"What possibility?"
