Chapter 166 – Constitution Fully Awakened

For four days straight, no one came out of Zhao Ling's master bedroom. Not until the morning of the fifth day did Bo Saixi, Ah Yin, and Liu Erlong finally open the door and step out.

Ah Yin carefully sensed the enhancement in her constitution and strength, her face beaming with satisfaction.

"Little Sister Long'er, I really didn't expect that your accidental experiment would lead to a method of strengthening our physique and power. It feels amazing!"

"This method of enhancing our constitution and strength is pretty great, isn't it? And it can even be applied multiple times. I feel like I've gotten even stronger again. Altogether, I think I've increased by about 5% now. I wonder how much more it can boost us in the end."

Liu Erlong said proudly, then turned her gaze to Bo Saixi beside her. "Sister Saixi, did your constitution and strength get boosted too?"

"Yeah, a bit… but the increase is so small it's hardly even 1%. Way less than you guys." Bo Saixi pouted, clearly dissatisfied with the results.

"Come on, Sister Saixi, you're a level 99 Ultimate Douluo. If your boost was the same as ours, that would be totally unfair, wouldn't it?"

Liu Erlong twitched at the corner of her mouth, a little speechless at Bo Saixi's greed.

Ah Yin nodded in agreement, "Exactly. Sister Saixi, you're a level 99 Ultimate Douluo. If your enhancement rate was the same as ours, that would be way too unbalanced."

"More importantly, our husband's physique still seems to have room for growth. When that happens, it'll definitely benefit us even more. Hehehe…"

"Oh please, are you two planning to treat our husband like a woolly sheep?" Bo Saixi gave Ah Yin and Liu Erlong a strange look. "Planning to keep 'shearing' him? Aren't you afraid he might fight back?"

"Of course not! If taking advantage of him gives us increased physique and strength, why shouldn't we? If we don't seize the opportunity, are we supposed to wait for some new woman to swoop in and take our benefits?"

Liu Erlong nodded firmly, speaking with confidence.

"She's right. We've got to take advantage while our husband still has only a few women around him. Once he has more sisters by his side, there'll be fewer chances for us to get ahead."

Ah Yin nodded in agreement as well, her beautiful eyes shifting toward the master bedroom, filled with playful amusement.

"Well then, let's make the most of it while we can. I'll be heading back to Sea God Island soon anyway. When that time comes, even if I wanted to benefit from him, I won't be able to. So I'd better take what I can now."

Bo Saixi also turned her gaze toward the master bedroom, her lips pursing softly, her eyes filled with tender emotion.

"Alright, let's stop talking about our husband for now. Let's go wash up and then play some Dou Dizhu."

"He's really not that impressive—only four days and he's passed out like a log. He used to think he was all that… how boring."

With that, Liu Erlong grabbed one of Bo Saixi's hands and one of Ah Yin's, leading them out into the courtyard.

At that moment, Zhao Ling—who looked like he'd been completely passed out in bed—suddenly opened his eyes, a bitter expression on his face.

"Oh… my god, I feel like I saw my great-grandmother and great-great-grandmother in the afterlife… It's all Long'er's fault! Why'd she bring up that topic with Xier and Yin'er? These three girls are terrifying… I really can't take it anymore…"

Right now, his whole body felt hollow, and he was completely in "sage mode."

Even though the Intermediate Barbaric Battle Body's sixfold physical enhancement was incredibly powerful… this was too much abuse! What a sinful life!

It looked like he really needed to upgrade his physique to the Advanced Barbaric Battle Body—or even higher.

Otherwise, Zhao Ling felt like he might "ascend to heaven" from exhaustion. Until then, he needed to negotiate a few ground rules with his three wives—he couldn't let them go overboard.

So tired… Zhao Ling felt like he was about to collapse, and then he drifted back into sleep like a dead pig.

What Zhao Ling didn't know was that, after he fell into deep sleep, his system panel automatically popped up:

[Condition met for awakening the Intermediate Barbaric Battle Body trait "Stronger in Battle". Please choose whether to awaken within 30 seconds. If no choice is made, default awakening will occur.]

[30, 29… 15, 14… 3, 2, 1… Time's up…]

[30 seconds have passed. No input from host. Default awakening of Intermediate Barbaric Battle Body trait "Stronger in Battle" has been activated.]

Immediately, a surge of brilliant golden light burst out from the system panel and shot straight into Zhao Ling's heart. His heartbeat began to thump with increasing power.

If someone had X-ray vision and could see through Zhao Ling's skin, they would find that his heart had turned a dazzling golden color.

Moreover, when the blood circulated back into the heart and then flowed out again, it had also turned into a gleaming golden hue…

Zhao Ling slept for a full two days straight. When he finally woke up, he found his physical strength and constitution had improved by nearly 30%, and his stamina was incredibly abundant.

Zhao Ling was dumbfounded. What the heck? Did my Intermediate Barbaric Battle Body evolve into the Advanced version in my sleep?

That shouldn't be possible… If the Barbaric Battle Body had advanced, the system should've notified me. And the boost would've been much higher than just 30%, right?

When he first got the Primary Barbaric Battle Body, his constitution had been tripled. When it upgraded to Intermediate, that tripled went to sixfold.

By that logic, the Advanced Barbaric Battle Body should boost him to ninefold. So how could it be only a 30% increase?

Still confused, Zhao Ling opened his personal status panel to investigate:
