Chapter 22: Training
Shen Yuan nodded his head and moved towards the puppet with caution, Shen Yuxin nodded her head with approval as she said, "You don't have to worry Yuan'er, the puppet won't attack you until I command it to you, so you can punch it with your full strength to see how strong your current strength."
Shen Yuan finally heaved a sigh as he released all his tension and went forward, standing right in front of the wooden puppet.
He planted his feet firmly on the ground, bending slightly to build up power in his legs. His eyes sharpened as he looked at the wooden puppet.
Shen Yuan took a deep breath, channeling all his strength; he swung his fist forward in a powerful punch, aiming directly at the center of the puppet's chest.
As his fist connected with the wooden puppet there was a sound.
BOOM!
The whole wooden puppet was obliterated by his punch; not even pieces were left of it, and this spoke volumes of Shen Yuan's strength.
Shen Yuxin's eyes sparkled as she had expected this result. After all, he has a high-tier physique and possibly a bloodline as well.
She Walked towards the astonished Shen Yuan who was looking at his hands as if what he did was straight out of some fantasy book.
Reality finally started sinking in that he was a cultivator and he will have superpowers in the future.
He was still standing there with the same pose after punching the wooden puppet; before Shen Yuxin could reach him, Huo Rong and Bing Rong entered the training room and saw the condition of the wooden puppet.

Both of them were slightly surprised as they knew that the wooden puppet could easily withstand the attack of an average Flesh Training cultivator, but then they remembered that Shen Yuan wasn't any average cultivator.
Before Bing Rong could say anything to him Huo Rong jumped a little forward and said to Shen Yuan, "Woah, our little Yuan'er is so strong, you have to protect us in the future when you join our sect."
Shen Yuan got a little embarrassed as he saw Huo Rong but quickly composed himself and spoke with pride," Don't worry, Aunt Huo, I will protect both of you in the future!"
Huo Rong and Bing Rong smiled sweetly when they heard it, but Shen Yuxin interrupted in the middle of it in a playful voice, "Oh My, Who will protect this poor lady? Her own son will only protect his aunts, but not his own dear mother."
Shen Yuan sweated a bit as he hurriedly said to his mother, "Of course, I will protect my Mom as well; I won't let anyone bully her."
Shen Yuxin smiled sweetly as she patted his head and said, "Let's continue testing your strength; I knew that the wooden puppet wouldn't be able to handle your strength. That's why I already got a few more high-level ones for you to practice with."
Huo Rong and Bing Rong nodded to each other and went a bit further away to not disturb Shen Yuan, Shen Yuxin nodded her head when she saw that both of them had moved further back.
She brings out another puppet from her storage ring, this one still made of wood, but with a darker and denser color. Shen Yuxin explained, "This is a higher-level training puppet than the previous one, it can withstand up to a force of 60 tons. Let's see how much strength you can exert on this puppet."
Shen Yuan nodded as he took a deep breath, readying his stance as he approached the new training puppet, his muscles tensing as he was excited about testing his current limits.
He firmly planted his feet on the ground, and bent his knees slightly, this time with more confidence than the nervousness of before.
Shen Yuxin smiled slightly as she saw this change, this was what she was going for when she took out the low-level training puppet for Shen Yuan, to increase his confidence in himself.
Shen Yuxin thought to herself, 'Shen Yuan is so talented but he is timid in this unknown world due to his past experience in his past life, if I want to fix it then he needs to have more confidence in himself. After training him for a few years here I will bring him to a local sect for further training.'
Shen Yuan didn't even have any idea that his mother had planned out his future journey so he could transition his mindset more smoothly to his current world.
Shen Yuan's eyes locked on the puppet, and he took another deep breath, channeling all his strength once more against the puppet.
With a burst of energy, Shen Yuan launched a punch towards the wooden training puppet, his punch traveling through incredible speed towards the chest of the puppet.
The impact was immediate and explosive.
BOOM!!
The higher-level training puppet didn't just crack or break as Shen Yuan had expected it to do, after all, it wasn't the same as the previous low-level puppet, it was utterly annihilated, showing that his strength far surpassed the 60 tons strength mark.
Shen Yuxin's eyes showed delight as she had expected this result, after all, she also had 60 tons of strength, but Shen Yuan quite easily surpassed that limit.
Her record was the highest recorded in her clan at that time. Even the clan ancestors were amazed at her strength. But Shen Yuan surpassed her without even putting in much effort.
Shen Yuxin's lips curled into a proud smile as she teleported near Shen Yuan and hugged him while saying, "As expected of my son," she said to him, "Your strength truly surpasses the norm of the continent."
Shen Yuan felt butterflies in his stomach as he got a bit embarrassed at his mother's praise. Before he could say anything both Huo Rong and Bing Rong came forward.
Their eyes filled with shock as their strength was nowhere close to Shen Yuan's monstrous strength at merely the flesh training stage. Bing Rong spoke looking a bit speechless, "Yuan'er is truly one of a kind, I don't think anyone in our sect had this level of strength at Flesh Training level. If Shen Yuan was in our sect then he would have set a new record."
Huo Rong chimed in proudly, "He, after all, is our family, of course, he will be excellent."
Bing Rong gave her a disdainful glance as she didn't deem it worth her effort to break her smug face.
