At the moment, Li Chuxi was setting up an aquarium.
She lined the bottom with small pebbles, filled it with water, and then placed the mantis shrimp and electric eel inside.
After all, she had spent hundreds of thousands on them, so it would be a waste to let them go to waste.
"I wonder if the mantis shrimp and the electric eel will fight," Li Chuxi thought to herself.
She first poured the mantis shrimp into the tank, followed by the electric eel.
"Plop!"
Once the electric eel entered the tank, it swam around a few times, getting familiar with the surroundings.
Soon, the electric eel spotted the mantis shrimp, which was curled up in a corner among the pebbles at the bottom of the tank.
The electric eel didn't normally eat mantis shrimp, but its diet did include small fish, shrimp, crabs, and other animals.
The mantis shrimp was brightly colored, and even though the eel had never eaten one before, it hadn't eaten in a day or two and was willing to try something new.
Li Chuxi squatted down, her eyes fixed on the aquarium, watching intently.
At that moment, the sound of a door opening could be heard outside.
Her younger brother, Li Shiji, who had just returned from the Thunder Martial Arts Hall, had come home.
He saw his sister squatting in a strange posture and chuckled. Dropping his backpack and keys, he walked over and asked, "Sis, what are you doing?"
Li Chuxi made a "shh" gesture and waved him over.
"Come take a look."
"Did you get a pet?" Li Shiji asked in a low voice, joining his sister in front of the aquarium.
The electric eel swam quietly, closing in on the mantis shrimp, which was still motionless in the pebbles.
When they were almost face-to-face, the mantis shrimp suddenly moved.
Its powerful, hard front pincers shot out like a bullet, creating a huge air bubble in the surrounding water.
At the same time, the pincers slammed into the electric eel's head.
The electric eel, shocked as if struck by an electric current, immediately swam violently backward, trying to escape.
A streak of blood spread from the eel's head.
The mantis shrimp, too, didn't have it easy, as the electric eel's electric shock knocked it unconscious.
"Sis, what kind of animal is this? It's amazing!" Li Shiji exclaimed, looking at his sister with astonishment.
It was truly impressive!
Even though Li Shiji was now an official martial artist, he couldn't catch the speed of the mantis shrimp's "punch"—all he saw was a blur when the pincers shot out.
In reality, the moment before the air bubble appeared, the mantis shrimp's pincers had already struck the electric eel's head.
Then, the force of the impact created the air bubble, which moved forward and eventually burst.
Li Chuxi smiled and replied, "It's a mantis shrimp."
"A mantis shrimp?" Li Shiji gasped, looking shocked and amazed.
"A little shrimp like that can unleash such incredible speed?"
"If someone punched me with that kind of speed, I—"
"Brother, look."
Li Chuxi opened her hand, and there was a cute little bunny hairpin lying quietly in her palm.
"Ah?"
Li Shiji, still talking, suddenly saw his sister pull out a white bunny hairpin as if by magic.
He exclaimed in surprise, instinctively reaching up to touch his head.
But the bunny hairpin on his head was gone.
"My hairpin, when did it fall off?"
"No way, I remember I put it on this morning."
"Could it be..."
Li Shiji opened his mouth wide and stared at Li Chuxi.
Li Chuxi nodded and said, "Yep, I just took it off from your head. What's wrong with a grown man wearing a bunny hairpin? I took it off for you."
"Ah... But how could this be?"
Li Shiji stood there, dumbfounded.
His sister had been right in front of him just now.
Unless her speed was so fast that his eyes couldn't catch it.
How could she take the hairpin off his head like that?
Was her hand speed like a bullet?
Li Chuxi smiled slightly.
After interacting with the mantis shrimp, her cells had evolved, granting her the ability to perform Sonic Fist.
The speed she could unleash had already surpassed that of the mantis shrimp.
"Sis, how did you do that just now?" Li Shiji asked, stunned.
Li Chuxi played coy and said, "Oh, it's nothing. Just practice."
"Really?"
"Of course. The reason I'm so strong now is that I do push-ups every day," Li Chuxi answered seriously.
Li Shiji nodded, believing it.
Later, Li Shiji became a training fanatic, and in part, it was because his sister had fooled him.
"By the way, did you learn the Thunder Furnace Technique from the Thunder Martial Arts Hall today?"
Li Chuxi asked.
"Of course not. The Thunder Furnace Technique is an S-level skill created by Martial Emperor Lei Hong. I just joined the hall; how could I learn it?"
"Today, I learned a C-level technique—the Wind Thunder Breathing Technique."
Li Chuxi nodded.
It was already impressive to learn a C-level technique right after joining the Thunder Martial Arts Hall.
C-level techniques, if they ended up outside, would be fiercely fought over. Not every official martial artist could learn them.
"Make good use of the resources at Thunder Martial Arts Hall, and focus on your training," Li Chuxi encouraged. "Once you reach the Martial General realm, I'm sure Lei Hong will pass on the S-level Thunder Furnace Technique to you."
"Martial General realm? Can I reach that?" Li Shiji murmured.
"Where there's a will, there's a way! What's a Martial General? My brother will one day become a Martial Emperor and a peerless expert!" Li Chuxi reassured.
Li Shiji laughed and said, "You're always comforting me, sis."
"However, after joining the Thunder Martial Arts Hall today, I realized that the talents in Jiang City are overwhelming."
"In the Thunder Martial Arts Hall, I feel so insignificant."
"Believe in yourself. How far you can go in the Martial Way is not just determined by talent," Li Chuxi said, her hand resting on his head, gently messing up his hair.
After Li Chuxi's encouragement, Li Shiji regained his strength.
"Brother, you focus on your training at the Thunder Martial Arts Hall. Tomorrow, I'm going to the hunting zone to start hunting fierce beasts."
"What?" Li Shiji exclaimed.
"You're going to the hunting zone, sis?"
"Yep, I'm going to the hunting zone to hunt fierce beasts."
"No, no, sis, it's too dangerous for you to go alone. I'm going with you."
Li Shiji refused to let his sister go alone to the hunting zone.
"Silly boy."
"Did you forget about your sister's strength when we were at the Killer's Town?"
"Besides, if you go, you'll just slow me down."
"When you're stronger, you can come with me to the hunting zone," Li Chuxi said, comforting him in a playful way.
