The nights grew colder as the seasons slowly changed.
Inside his room, Krishak sat cross-legged on his bed, his breathing calm and steady.
For months, he had remained at the peak of the Martial Apprentice Realm.
He had repeatedly compressed his spiritual energy, refined his flesh, and purified every part of his body.
By now, his foundation was so solid that there was no room for further improvement at this level.
At last, the time had come to advance.
Krishak closed his eyes and circulated the Primordial Origin Art.
Pure spiritual energy flowed through his meridians like a gentle stream.
This time, instead of dispersing the excess energy to stabilize his foundation, he guided it toward the barrier separating Martial Apprentice from Martial Warrior.
The barrier offered almost no resistance.
With a soft internal tremor, it shattered.
A wave of warm energy surged through his body.
His muscles became denser.His bones grew stronger.
His meridians expanded once more.
Even his senses sharpened noticeably.
Krishak had officially entered the Martial Warrior Realm.
Krishak clenched his small fist.
Compared to before, his physical power had increased several times over.
If he had previously relied on flawless technique to challenge stronger opponents, he now possessed genuine strength to match.
According to Earth's ranking system:
Cultivation Realm: Early Martial Warrior
Earth Equivalent: Mid E-Rank to Early D-Rank
True Combat Strength: Peak D-Rank
In practical terms, he could now defeat many ordinary D-Rank fighters and even challenge stronger opponents thanks to his overwhelming experience.
For a three-year-old child, this was an absurd level of strength.
Krishak moved silently into the courtyard before dawn.
Standing beneath the stars, he threw a simple punch.
A sharp burst of wind followed his fist.
The nearby training dummy trembled.
Krishak nodded.
His body had become far more stable.
The strength he produced was smooth and perfectly controlled.
There was no wasted movement, no leakage of energy.
Everything was condensed into the strike itself.
"Excellent," he murmured.
Even by the standards of his previous life, his foundation was nearly flawless.
Later that morning, Veer began their usual training session.
As soon as he blocked one of Krishak's punches, his eyes widened.
The force behind it was noticeably greater than before.
Veer stepped back and stared at his son.
"You've become stronger again.
Krishak tilted his head innocently.
"Really?"
Veer burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! At this rate, you'll surpass me one day."Ama, who was watching from the veranda with Luna, smiled warmly.
"Just don't fill his head with too much pride."
Luna bounced excitedly.
"Big Brother strongest!"
Krishak smiled, but said nothing.
His true strength was still far beyond what they imagined.
That night, Krishak reflected on his breakthrough.
In his previous life, he had advanced quickly, focusing on reaching higher realms as efficiently as possible.
This time, he had chosen a different path.
He had spent months building a flawless foundation before taking a single step forward.
The result was obvious.
His current body was stronger, purer, and more stable than it had ever been at the same realm.
Krishak quietly summarized his current strength.
Cultivation Realm: Early Martial Warrior
Combat Power: Peak Martial Warrior
Earth Equivalent: Peak D-Rank
He nodded in satisfaction.
At this pace, it would not be long before he could rival the strongest experts in his town. But he had no intention of rushing. His goal was not merely to become strong. It was to become flawless.
Krishak looked up at the star-filled sky.
Earth was only beginning its journey into the world of cultivation.
One day, this small planet would produce Saints, Emperors, and perhaps even beings who could rival the gods of his previous life.
And when that day came, Krishak intended to stand at the forefront.For now, however, he was content.
He was a child with a loving family, a perfect foundation, and an infinite future ahead of him.
And this was only the beginning
