The case is solved! Ye Hao also possesses a special physique! The Tai Cang Overlord Physique!
"Gulp..."
Ye Hao stared at the mountain of medicine bottles piled before him and swallowed hard.
Although he didn't know why the mysterious Senior Jian was so certain he could consume this many pills without his body exploding,
since the big shot had spoken, he could only grit his teeth and follow through.
He took a deep breath, reached out to grab a porcelain bottle, pulled out the stopper, and was just about to pour it into his mouth.
"Hey, wait!"
"Don't eat them yet!"
Just then, Gu Zhiyun, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up to stop him.
She glanced around and saw that many students on the nearby Martial Arts Arena were already casting curious and probing glances in their direction.
"Eating them here is too conspicuous. We'll probably get surrounded by those students in no time."
"Causing a commotion later wouldn't be good. Better to keep a low profile."
"Come on, come on, let's change locations first!"
Gu Zhiyun's suggestion was immediately met with everyone's agreement.
Indeed, if Ye Hao's "feat of devouring three thousand pills" was witnessed by a crowd, who knows what outrageous rumors would be spreading by tomorrow.
"Let's go to my office!"
Lin Guohui waved his hand decisively, settling the matter.
"It's quiet, spacious, and no one would dare disturb us casually."
Thus, the group, along with the several small carts, moved in a grand procession, heading directly to the Academy Master's Office.
"Alright."
"This place is absolutely safe."
"Come on, Student Ye Hao, please continue your performance!"
Gu Zhiyun casually waved her hand, piling all the carts of pills in front of Ye Hao, nearly burying him.
"Alright!"
Having come this far, Ye Hao stopped hesitating.
He took a deep breath, his eyes taking on a look of grim determination.
Snap!
He grabbed a bottle, tilted his head back, and poured!
Crunch crunch!
As if eating roasted beans, a bottle containing ten Crimson Blood Bone Forging Pills was instantly chewed up and swallowed.
Then came the second bottle, the third bottle... At first, Ye Hao ate cautiously, pausing after each bottle to assess his body's condition.
But he soon discovered that after the pills entered his stomach, it was like mud entering the sea—they disappeared without even a splash!
His body felt no bloating or pain, not even a trace of warmth arose!
"No sensation?"
"Then speed up!"
A fierce determination rose in Ye Hao's heart. He used both hands, grabbing a bottle with his left and one with his right, attacking from both sides!
Ten bottles... twenty bottles... thirty bottles... In the blink of an eye, fifty bottles of pills had entered his stomach.
A full five hundred Grade 2 Pills!
If this were an ordinary Body Cultivator, even one at the Body Tempering Ninth Level, they'd probably be bleeding from all seven orifices by now due to the overwhelming medicinal potency.
But Ye Hao?
His complexion was rosy, his breathing steady. Aside from his jaw muscles being a bit sore, there was nothing unusual about him!
"Good heavens!"
"This... this is a bottomless pit!"
Zhang Qingfeng, who had been watching closely from the side, felt his eyes were about to pop out, and his jaw nearly dropped to the floor.
As someone who had personally participated in refining these pills, he knew all too well how potent the Crimson Blood Bone Forging Pills were!
Normally, one bottle's worth would be enough for an ordinary student to Cultivate for two or three days.
But this kid... devoured fifty bottles in one go without exploding?
"What kind of freak is he?!"
"Could this kid be the legendary Reincarnation of a Taotie?"
Zhang Qingfeng couldn't help but exclaim.
This was truly terrifying!
The others also watched with a tingling sensation on their scalps.
Although they had just witnessed Ye Hao's "good appetite," that was only a dozen or so bottles.
Now it was a full fifty bottles!
Even an elephant would be dead from overeating after consuming so many high-energy pills, right?
Only Sword Elder, floating in mid-air, watched Ye Hao's indiscriminate consumption with eyes shining brighter and brighter, the smile on his face growing wider and wider!
"Good, good, good!"
"Don't stop, keep eating!"
"Eat as much as you can!"
Seeing Ye Hao's movements slow down due to a dry mouth, Sword Elder couldn't help but urge him on.
"Ahem..."
"Um... Senior Jian."
Ye Hao swallowed the pill residue in his mouth with difficulty, scratched his head sheepishly, a hint of embarrassment on his face.
"It's a bit too dry, a bit hard to swallow..."
"Can I have some water first?"
"Tsk! Such a small matter!"
"I'll pour it for you!"
Before Sword Elder could speak, Sikong Yang, who was standing nearby, swiftly grabbed a large teacup from the table,
filled it to the brim with water from the dispenser, and handed it to Ye Hao.
"Thank you, vice academy master!"
Ye Hao took the cup, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one go, finally feeling his throat clear up.
"Whew... refreshing!"
Wiping the water from his mouth, Ye Hao threw himself back into the great task of "downing the pills."
And so.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, time passed minute by minute.
A full hour went by.
When Ye Hao poured the last bottle of pills into his mouth and swallowed, the mountain of medicine bottles had all turned into empty containers.
Three hundred bottles!
Three thousand pills!
All devoured by him alone!
And only now did his body, which had shown no reaction at all, finally begin to exhibit some subtle changes!
A faint, extremely pale golden sheen began to shimmer faintly on the surface of his skin,
and a weak yet exceptionally dense Qi and blood fluctuation finally began to slowly emanate from within him.
"Kid, how is it?"
"What do you feel?"
Seeing the changes on Ye Hao, Sword Elder, who had been staring intently at him, shot out a brilliant light from his eyes and asked eagerly.
"Um..."
Ye Hao closed his eyes, carefully sensing the condition inside his body, then scratched his head somewhat uncertainly and answered honestly:
"My body feels a little warm?"
"It seems... it seems these pills I ate finally have a tiny, tiny bit of effect?"
"But... I still feel like I'm not full..."
"Tsk, just as I thought!"
Hearing this answer, Sword Elder's face immediately revealed an expression of 'just as expected.'
"Old Grandfather..."
"What on earth is going on?"
"Why did Ye Hao only show such a subtle reaction after eating over three hundred bottles of pills?"
"Isn't this too outrageous?!"
Lin Xiyue couldn't hold back any longer, voicing the confusion in everyone's hearts.
This was three thousand pills!
Even if you fed them to a pig, as long as the pig didn't explode, it should have become a spirit by now, right?
But for Ye Hao, the reaction was actually this mild?
Wasn't this utilization rate appallingly low?
"Hehe..."
Sword Elder stroked his beard and chuckled, a hint of barely concealed excitement in his tone.
"The reason is actually quite simple!"
"This kid..."
"He also has a special Physique!"
"What?!"
"Also a special Physique?!"
As soon as Sword Elder said this, everyone was dumbfounded!
Good heavens!
Another special Physique?
But upon careful thought, it made sense.
After all, for a little rookie at the Body Tempering First Level to eat hundreds of bottles of Grade 2 Pills like candy without batting an eye,
it would be truly unbelievable if he didn't have some special Physique to rely on!
"So, Sword Elder..."
"What kind of Physique does he actually have?"
"To be able to eat so much?"
Glancing at Ye Hao's bewildered expression beside him, Li Fan couldn't help but press Sword Elder for an answer.
"This..."
"If this old man's eyes do not deceive him..."
Hearing this, Sword Elder took a deep breath and slowly unveiled the answer to everyone's question.
"This is the supreme Physique of the Body Cultivator path!"
"It is the ultimate form that all Body Cultivators dream of!"
"It is also the Physique that, upon reaching Major Achievement, can challenge even the supreme emperors with just a pair of iron fists..."
"The Taicang... Tyrant Body!"
