he would've transmigrated in a different body then 😆

ginseng baby is going to wreck this trial

you've got a degree on the stock market. it's a very narrow view of economics, only concerning itself with money and, more specifically, the money of the investment class. Your degree doesn't concern itself with the actual financial well-being of the country. In fact, your degree has created an extreme flaw in the country. Politicians rely on economists to tell them the financial health of the country, but economists only report the financial health of the stock market, which is silly since it's just a gambling den. Economists will report the economy is healthy while the majority of citizens are unemployed/underemployed and struggling to make ends meet. And yes, I'm speaking of the socio-political ramifications of an economic model, it's more holistic. If you focus only on your tree, you miss the forest fire.

why do all the hybrids have red hair? the half-pheonixes made sense as they had fire-pheonix bloodlines, but elves should primarily be blonde right?

The era of opponents injuring themselves before battle begins

only Shi Yu would think that fighting a reincarnated totem put through his Hellish training would be easy.

at this point, he's a student in name only

clearly, he's going to become a panda hybrid

then it's omelet time

how would Eleven or Ling die from this? Eleven world only be a cheerleader while Ling was only evaluating from the side if supplements were needed or if they needed to stop.

really? what proof do you have? my proof is every capitalist business in America. They all follow this model. most businesses are in the state where they start stripping business costs and push customers to purchase products that aren't any better than their previous product. For example, Apple, Micron, and even Samsung are at this stage, with layoffs, lack of innovation, and releasing new products that aren't new. But many are approaching the end-stage of capitalism like major fast food chains that have reached every market they can and slashed every cost, so instead, they are raising prices far above what inflation (or the tiny increase in worker pay they gave after Covid) would warrant, and the result is people aren't eating fast food anymore, they dine-in or even go to sit-down restaurants since it is now the same cost. As a result, the fast food industry is dying from its own unrestrained greed. There are many articles about this phenomenon, even in super-conservative pro-capitalism journals. it's finally gotten to the point that even conservatives can't ignore the problem with capitalism. Sure, they're still blaming 'lazy' millennials for choosing cheaper, healthier options, but they at least see the problem now 😆

pretty sure it means exactly what we think. they could've used hyper-focused, instead, they used a medical condition 😆

every second spent fighting here is one second less of eating delicious totem meat

I mean ... this book is heavily influenced by Pokémon. That's probably not a mistake

hahahaha ... no, the best capitalist continuously earns better quarter over quarter income. At the beginning stages this means developing an innovative product and effectively marketing it. At this stage, the capitalist may be hard working. Beyond this stage, though, the capitalist is purely administrative. As their product fills the market and they gradually can't obtain new customers, they'll do stupid things like layoff workers, cut R&D, reduce the lifespan of their product, push upgrades that aren't upgrades into the market. Ultimately when there's no new market to conquer and they've stripped the business to bare bones, they'll start recklessly increasing prices to try to force quarter over quarter growth. This is the point that capitalism fails, quarter over quarter growth is not forever sustainable in a finite market. This is the stage McDonald's has reached, and currently, they are at risk of completely failing due to unrestrained greed. That's the defining trait of capitalist, greed at the cost of everything, even until self-destruction. I think that fits Shi Yu well.

finally, confirmation that Eleven is male

you know, ignoring the fact that he turns into a desiccated corpse after 1 point of super training. hopefully, his improved physique and contract feedback negate that now.

why would it matter for that one? they placed real dragon whiskers in as the core, buggy only planted an illusion spirit inside that was to be powered by the whiskers. As for materials, Ginseng baby grew some nutritious wood to further support the illusion spirit, and then Eleven incased it in his hardening material, which is essentially an extremely hard metal alloy. Of these, the whiskers will gradually lose their power, and the wood will lose its nutrition, which will cause the illusion spirit to die, but the materials themselves will remain with no time limit. Eleven's hardening material will eventually vanish, but at Eleven's level, it will take centuries to vanish. The end result is that the sword will lose power over time and use, just like it would happen to most artifacts without a method to recharge them. The sword itself, though, will still continue to exist for a century or more even if Shi Yu exhausts all the power in some high-profile battle. Assuming Shi Yu doesn't remake the sword, disassemble it, or break it after he exhausts the power, the metal sword will turn into a wooden sword sometime after a century. Given that high-level depleted resources can still be nutritious at lower levels, this will probably turn into an awakened or transcendent pet's meal in the future.

why buy? if he studied the components, eleven can make them
