While walking towards the shop from where Theo wants to buy the body Tempering Technique is called, Martial Pavilion. Martial Pavilion is a widely known pavilion for selling Techniques and it is established mostly in all town and city of the kingdom. They mostly sell low level cultivation Techniques because high level are too precious only few sects have.
The techniques are divided into :- common, earth, Heaven, divine, etc.
Each division is divided into sub division:- low, mid, high, peak.
"what a fool i am, i forgot that i have to buy breathing Technique too," Theo muttered to himself while walking to the pavilion. yesterday while reading the old book he learn the realm of cultivation and how it is divided.
i.e. Body tempering/ foundation building
Qi refining
core formation
Nascent soul
soul core formation
soul body formation
Immortal Realm, etc.
He also learn that anybody can cultivate, they only need to feel their Dantian, which resides in their body. To cultivate body tempering techniques, that said person must send qi to tempered their body. thats why Theo felt like fool.
As Theo walks into the pavilion he heard," what can i do for you, customer" the salesperson spoke with a frown in his look, looking at Theo tattered clothes, still he didn't kick Theo out, as he knows that many salesperson offended some soon to be great cultivators before, and regretted it, and as a person who learn from the past he doesn't want to offend Theo, which might bring trouble in the future.
Theo look at the salesperson, which had disdain look in his face, not minding anything, as he knows why his face look like that, he replied," where can i get body tempering and breathing techniques".
The salesperson pointed at the book stand where there is so many book kept, without want to deal with Theo any longer. he walk out.
Theo walk to the book stand where the salesperson pointed his finger , he started checking for any techniques which might suitable for him, as he was checking the book he stumbled upon a body tempering technique. which has written " Golden body transformation techniques". feeling mesmerized he started checking the book, he felt that this book isn't simple, but he didn't know why it was kept with low level common techniques, so he asked the same salesperson whom he met at entrance," is anything wrong with this technique", the salesperson replied," this techniques isn't complete and it is hard to train with this technique so it is kept here if u want this techniques i can give you a discount ",
feeling happy Theo decided that he would take this technique and soon he started to search for breathing techniques. he found a suitable breathing technique for himself relatively easily, as there was so much low level breathing technique.
Theo decided to take "golden body transformation and zen breathing Technique"
So he went to counter to check out the books he found, the same salesperson whom he met at the entrance took the counter so that he can send Theo away fast, so that other customer won't feel offended on how Theo look.
The salesperson spoke," As you want that body tempering technique i will charge you 10 gold for that, and 5 gold coin for that breathing technique, total 15 gold coin and 50 silver", Theo felt confused and ask " 50 silver for what". To which salesperson replied" 50 silver for service charge, any problem with that"
"no" , Theo replied with frown in his face and gave 15 gold and 50 silver coin, and took the book hastily and walk out fast, so that he can reach his home started practicing. Theo knew the salesperson didn't deserve the 50 silver coin as he didn't do anything related to service as he only replied when Theo ask. till then not wanting to argue and offend the salesperson, not knowing what the salesperson will do to him, he walk out of the pavilion little dejected as he only have 2 gold coin left.
After buying everything he need Theo went to his house..... Keeping everything he bought in his shed, Theo started making training plans. and it goes like this 100 push ups 100 pull ups 100 squats 20 Km run 1000 swinging of swords and body tempering. why there is no need for training of breathing technique is because breathing technique are use in a way to guide qi to their body and to the dantian, so that's why he can only used breathing technique to tempered his body. so there is need for it. Theo start taking his upper clothe so that he won't drenched his cloth with sweat. As he look at his body, he can see that he doesn't have any muscle, he is a skinny 12 year old boy. he doesn't look malnourished. after looking at himself Theo start doing his training according to routine he make. He usually get tired after doing push up and pull up, till then he didn't give up. as for why he is doing this ro
When Theo open his eyes from his body tempering, the sun was about to set, So he got up and when to check his trap. There he caught rabbit, and a rat, Mostly in three traps out of 5 he placed got something and in two traps, there was nothing. so he took the hunt clean it in the river, wash the meat, kept the pelt, and started cooking the meat for his dinner. Theo ate the meat and when to sleep, as it was harsh day or you can say tiring day. He woke up early in the morning and started doing his daily routine of training. It is two week of training when Theo started it. He can feel many changes happening to his body. In body tempering he was at Third stages, where he have to tempered his vein from qi and open up 8 meridian so that he can tempered his bone and five treasured organ. During this time he went to town once only to tell old man jiang that he won't be coming to the work for one month. He also increase his number of swing from 1000 to 10,000 sw
This is the third week of the month, and it was early in the morning, when Theo woke up, and went to the stream to fresh up, he look at himself at the water and check his body, Anybody can see the changes in his body, His muscle are tightly pack, it isn't too much of muscle like gym guys, till then his body was well defined. If he wear his clothes nobody will see that changes, but when he removes his cloth anybody can feel the well define body of his. After washing himself up, Theo went back, ate his breakfast, and start doing his daily routine of Training. While doing the exercise of pull ups, push ups, etc. he doesn't see any noticeable changes, so he decided that he will stop doing this exercise, and he will only swing the sword and practice the one slash move from the way of the sword. As usual, after finishing his training, which was noon Theo took some rest and ate his lunch. finishing what must be done, Theo start tempering his body, It was in the last
huff huff, huff, the rough breathing of someone can be heard all over the forest, it was so loud as the person in question, was doing it on purpose, the said person was obviously Theo, after killing the beast/ black brown bear. Theo drag his body out of the stream to shore and laid back making the huffing sound. It was Theo first battle, and it was the hardest battle of all, and as well as Theo regret not bringing his sword, because it would be a little bit easy, with the black sword, over time during the practices, Theo notice that the black sword was too sharp, and feel regretted and thankful for the person who sold it without knowing anything. It was already dark, when Theo decided that it was best to go home, so he took the from the beast eyes. And start skinning it, many might been confused as how did Theo learn the hunting skill, Theo doesn't know any hunting skill, he knows how to place trap and skinning, it was his first hunt. that he
Theo was walking back to his house, after cleaning himself up, in a deep thought, and confused look in his face. He was still confused as why did the Black Gu substance came out of his body, thinking that he didn't even complete, forget about complete, he wasn't in the late stage of body tempering, why. he was pondering very hard, his heart was confused, it was etching for the answer, but there was no one to answer. as he whispered in his own thought," did i do something wrong while cultivating it, or is it because of Golden body Transformation, as i can see that my skin are smooth and soft. hmm then it must be because of golden body transformation technique." But who would tell him that bone tempering is the last stage of body tempering, Every cultivator after tempering their bone, refined their qi. But it isn't Theo mistake for not knowing that, as he was ignorant 12 year boy, who just started his life as a cultivator. He will soon learn everything about it, with time.
Afternoon, outskirt of town. Theo was walking toward the town, while carrying the black brown bear on his shoulder. He was nearing the town, when one of the guard stop him," hey stop, where do you think you are going, carrying such big, without any compensation," the guard smirked and said to Theo.

Theo went to the chief carrying the beast, " boy where did you get such big hunt," the chief guard said in shock, he never question the strength of Theo for carrying the beast, as most people learn body tempering to carry out their duty more efficiently, but was shock because to hunt such beast you need expert hunters.

He was thinking about how he should live from now on, as he got so much money, considering what he save over the years. it was 120 gold coin, which was enough for him to live comfortably for a year. Theo was just a kid and he doesn't have much to buy, so he was little bit reluctance to keep the money, nobody knows what troubles it might bring to him. just like now.When Theo reach outer area of the forest, the man who was following him block his path, and said to him," give me all your money and i might let you live,". Theo look at the man who was blocking his path.he remember the face of the man, as he was the guard who ask Theo for compensation when he was carrying the beast to sell at the gate of the town.He can see greed in the eyes of the guard, with little bit of fear Theo replied," why are doing this, i
