C13 Yoctometer Robot(1)

The system was brimming with an array of cultivation techniques, skills, and footwork. Just considering the skills alone, one could find everything from fist and palm techniques to finger, body, leg, and footwork, not to mention the eighteen types of weapon skills. Those with decision paralysis would surely be overwhelmed.

Bai Chengcheng, however, didn't suffer from such indecision. When it came to cultivation techniques, he simply followed the system's recommendations, prioritizing one main technique while familiarizing himself with others. This was a necessity; after all, internal energy wasn't something that benefited from excess. A single misstep could lead to disastrous consequences.

Regarding skills, Bai Chengcheng's ambitions were vast. He was eager to master any skill that ended with the word 'Art.' Fist techniques weren't just limited to individual combat skills like punching, palm strikes, or finger jabs; they encompassed a comprehensive range of movements involving fists, palms, fingers, body, legs, and footwork.

Bai Chengcheng wasn't the type to skulk in the shadows like Fan Gongming, nor was he inclined to flee from a challenge. At the same time, he wasn't foolhardy like Lu Youzhi, who would recklessly confront the impossible. Therefore, while footwork was essential, perfecting the Light-body Technique wasn't a priority.

Should he give the trial a go? Bai Chengcheng activated the "Taiji Yin Yang Art" within the system.

"Wow, it's actually me," he exclaimed as a life-sized, naked holographic image of himself appeared before him. The semi-transparent figure was designed to display the faintly red meridians and acupoints within the body. As the virtual image explained and demonstrated the first level of the Taiji Yin Yang Art, a small white dot appeared on the meridian lines, starting from the dantian and slowly tracing the explained route. After completing one cycle, it began anew, repeating the process over and over. With enough repetition, even a pig could learn.

Bai Chengcheng didn't immediately immerse himself in cultivation, considering that the principles behind techniques and footwork were likely similar. He temporarily shut down the helmet system, wanting to ponder over the native ecosystem he had found before Lu Youzhi and Fan Gongming arrived.

Possessing the native ecosystem was forbidden, and failing to turn it in was a serious crime. Aside from his parents, he couldn't risk anyone else finding out—not even his closest friends. Big Bear and Monkey probably wouldn't betray him, but it would weigh heavily on their consciences. Bai Chengcheng also didn't want to burden his parents with this knowledge. Whether the system was real or not was beside the point; he was eager to achieve something that would astonish them. This desire was quite natural—something most children probably experienced.

He summoned the system with his thoughts, and the native ecosystem responded. The panel materialized once again.

This time, the display wasn't filled with Bai Chengcheng's data, but rather the system's own information.

The compliance of the otherworldly life form was due to Bai Yaojin's influence—out of fear. It recognized that even at its peak strength, it might not stand a chance against Bai Yaojin. If it tried to consume Bai Chengcheng, especially while still weakened, it would likely be decimated by Bai Yaojin.

The otherworldly life form revised its strategy. It decided to nurture and assist Bai Chengcheng, forging an unbreakable bond with him. It would depend on Bai Chengcheng to slowly regain its power, then coax him into undertaking system missions that would lead him to her world to fulfill her ambitions.

If they succeeded together, that would be ideal. If not, there was always Bai Yaojin. Should Bai Chengcheng face peril, his mother would surely not stand idly by. To not secure such formidable support would be to invite divine retribution.

This revealed the system's moral ambiguity to be alarmingly vast.

The system's name was Pelia (The otherworldly life form didn't appreciate being constantly referred to as 'the system,' so it chose to reveal its own name). Pelia was committed to enhancing the host's array of technological knowledge and combat skills, aiding the host in navigating the stars.

Upon reaching this point, Bai Chengcheng couldn't help but smirk. "Pelia, aren't you being a bit overconfident?" Conquering the vast sea of stars was no easy feat. At this moment, Bai Chengcheng dared not dream of reaching the pinnacle of human combat strength; he thought it would be quite an achievement if he could ascend to the level of Martial King in his lifetime.

Pelia ignored him and continued to display the system's capabilities.

System Function: Assist and motivate the host to learn the appropriate level of technological knowledge and combat skills, issue missions, and provide rewards based on learning progress and mission completion.

Language Level 1 (0/100): Language is the fundamental tool for interpersonal communication. Proficient language skills and literary cultivation can help the host establish positive interpersonal relationships.

Bai Chengcheng was initially frustrated that his language skill was only at level one, but upon seeing the extensive list of books that followed, he felt overwhelmed. The list included thousands of non-native languages, poetry, songs, novels, essays, and even various forms of body language from ancient to modern times. If it weren't for the learning system his mother, Bai Yaojin, had bestowed upon him, which allowed for perfect recall, Bai Chengcheng might have outright rejected this native ecosystem.

The study of language encompassed not only the language of the Orion Civilization but also the language from Pelia's world. The Orion Civilization's language was something Pelia had compiled from the internet after arriving in this world.

Mathematics Level 1 (0/100): Mathematics is the foundational tool for all scientific research. Technological advancement is often constrained by the proficiency of mathematical calculation techniques. (Below this was another extensive list of books, ranging from basic to advanced, with numerical annotations indicating the progress of the mathematical level.)

Physics Level 1 (0/100): Physics elucidates the fundamental principles of the world. It serves as the guiding doctrine for intelligent life to transform and harness nature. (Similarly, there was a long list of books, covering everything from the basics of mechanics, thermodynamics, acoustics, optics, and electrodynamics, to the frontiers of string theory, materials science, energy science, and even chemistry.)

Mechanical Engineering Level 1 (0/100): A true gentleman is not different; he is skilled at utilizing what is at hand. (This included everything from the fabrication of various tools, parts, and machinery, to the construction of mechs, spaceships, and space fortresses; it also covered the techniques for using various tools and mastering the operation of different devices.)

What thrilled Bai Chengcheng the most were the sections on mecha manufacturing and piloting techniques.

E Information Science Level 1 (0/100): A tool for human-computer interaction.

F Life Science Level 1 (0/100): Deciphering the code of biological evolution and the origins of life.

G Sociology Level 1 (0/100): The essential knowledge required for a successful individual.

H Military Science Level 1 (0/100): The safeguard for the advancement of nations and civilizations.

I Martial Arts Level 1 (0/100): Self-reliance is better than seeking help; the optimal measure for ensuring the host's safety.

Mission: Progress in learning will be displayed upon reaching the respective milestones.
