Future Plans
Xi Chen's life on earth was a very busy life as he had to deal with many gang affairs. It was not so easy going life like those show on TV drams and stories.
So he did not even know those trasmigrator novels and their golden fingers.
After some time the panel dimmed and everything went to normal like it was before.
Just to make sure it was his imagination or not Xi Chen calls out the panel again.
"Panel".
Panel-
Owner: Xi Chen
Bloodline: None
Clan: 3 members
Combat Skills: Iron Hammer Fist( 2/30), Eagle Claw(2/20), Heavy Palm(4/25)
Cultivation Technique: Crimson Body Tempering Technique (5/30)
[Ghost Hand Clan Panel]
"Is all these techniques of martial arts" suddenly Xi Chen feels like his despair is seen by God and he sends him a gift for that.
But as soon he thought of that. A message popped up.
[The Panel is an entity born out of your despair by Universe energy. It is a mindless one.]
'So thats how it is.' He shows a thoughtful look.
"Since I have all I need at my disposal now I should start making plans. Even though I have the skills, I can not show openly or else I will be skin alive by those Clan freaks. They might accuse me of stealing and execute me in front of everyone" Xi Chen calm himself.
'First I need to build a force that can contain against the Clan in the town. Then I will be able to live a little bit freely.' Xi started thinking of how to build a force. But since he can not trust outsiders, he thought of building a Clan that consists of blood related members.

The next morning, Xi Chen wake up early and went out to buy breakfast. Even though they have their own kitchen, they only uses it occasionally.
When Xi Chen came back with the breakfast in his hand. The two younger boys have already woke up and was preparing to open the shop.
He calls his brother before they open the shop and have breakfast with them. Then they started working.
During the work hours, Xi Chen shows blank looks and his eyes sometimes dazed with light(of course it just metaphor). The two boys seeing this calls out to Xi Chen ask if he is Okey. Xi Chen would look at them saying that 'he is fine' with a smile. The two boys looks at each other and shows a puzzle look.
The day went on like that as usual except for Xi Chen showing a blank look sometimes.
At night, on his bed, Xi Chen started thinking again. 'I should first breakthrough to Skin Tempering Realm and teach them when I am proficient with the skills and techniques.'
"People says there 5 realms in Mortal realm. Skin Tempering Realm, Muscle Tempering Realm, Bone Tempering Realm, Blood Refinement Realm, and lastly Organ Strengthening Realm. But I do not know if it is true and I do not know what comes after or what is beyond that." Xi thought of the talks of martial Realm by common people. "Maybe there is also a black market is this town. It should be." The thought of Black market comes to his mind.
Xi Chen went to sleep as he tired because of the practice he done in secret.

It has been a month since Xi Chen awakened his memories and his panel.
Nighttime..
Xi Chen is sitting on his bed with a lotus Buddha position. His whole body is dripping with sweats. And at the same time he is shivering, not from coldbut from the heat he is emitting from within his body. His whole body is redden. His teeth are grinding against each other.
Suddenly, Xi Chen's body stopped shivering and his body went back to normal.
Then his outer skins started shedding. The skin on his whole body pealed off from his body. Before the skin even touch the ground disappeared, like dust on wind.
When looking at the new skin, it does not seem any different. But when Xi Chen touch, he felt his skin much smoother and tougher at the same time. Like a harden smooth wood.
"So this is how it feels to be a Martial artist. I feel like I can take on 10s of ordinary people given that they do not have any weapons." Xi Chen feel his newly born body. 'Panel'.

After seeing the message, Xi chen thought to himself. 'Realm and Grades!..Well thats a new one. I did not think that there will be Grades among techniques. I thought I can contain against the Clan if I got any skills.'
"Now I should have some strengths to protect me and my family. But its better to be low key, less I invited troubles. But first I need to find a black market or something and I should train my brothers. I can not just walk on this path alone at all." After checking the messages Xi Chen starts to plan for his future.
He check the panel on last time before going to bed.
