Upgrading and the Delivery Arrives

Upgrading and the Delivery Arrives

Chen Sheng searched for Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, and countless results immediately popped up.

Strangely enough, however, very few of those results had anything to do with martial arts.

Chen Sheng searched for around ten minutes but still failed to find any useful information.

"Strange."

He clearly remembered there being plenty of martial arts materials and videos online.

He had originally planned to gather a large amount of martial arts material online after learning Xingyi Quan, then use his Golden Finger to level up quickly.

But now, no matter whether Chen Sheng searched for Xingyi Quan, Wing Chun, or other such martial arts,

all those instructional videos had vanished without a trace.

Not knowing what was going on, Chen Sheng immediately sent Li Chenghu a message on WeChat.

Only after receiving a reply did he learn

that several months ago, action had already begun online to continuously remove detailed martial arts information.

The purpose was to prevent rogue Transcendents and Qi Sense Users from learning it and further expanding the danger they posed.

Now, only the most basic information about martial arts remained online.

Anyone who wanted to learn martial arts had to either join a martial arts school or join the Martial Security Bureau.

Trying to teach oneself was incredibly difficult.

After understanding everything, Chen Sheng immediately gave up on searching online for Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound.

He put away his phone and came to the roadside.

A Personal Disciple, huh?

He could try for it.

The more techniques he had that could rapidly improve his physical qualities, the better.

With that thought,

Chen Sheng stretched his limbs where he stood, then started running toward the gym once more.

An hour later,

he successfully arrived at the gym, raising his constitution attribute by 0.03. Ten kilometers posed no pressure at all for Chen Sheng now.

He checked the time.

It was noon.

Chen Sheng did not enter the gym immediately.

He went to an all-you-can-eat restaurant and finished lunch under the server's strange gaze.

After resting briefly and waiting for the fullness to gradually fade, Chen Sheng finally entered the gym.

The owner of this Jason Gym was Li Chenghu.

Li Chenghu had told Chen Sheng on the phone earlier that he could head directly to the VIP area.

He had already informed the gym staff to designate one of the VIP rooms exclusively for Chen Sheng.

Naturally, Chen Sheng was more than happy to have a better workout experience.

He went to the front desk and received a key to a VIP room.

Having received notice in advance, the young woman at the front desk even stood up and bowed in greeting.

It instantly gave him the illusion that he was some rich second-generation heir.

After taking the key, Chen Sheng headed straight for the VIP area.

On the way,

he ran into Coach Jack.

Coach Jack had clearly received notice as well and knew that Chen Sheng's status was now different.

The moment he spotted Chen Sheng from afar, he lowered his head and hurriedly avoided him, terrified that Chen Sheng would come looking for trouble.

As for A Wei, he was no longer by Coach Jack's side. Chen Sheng did not know whether the beating he had taken had completely destroyed his confidence in training.

At that,

Chen Sheng merely smiled and let it pass.

Seeing Coach Jack acting so cowardly was already satisfying enough.

If he chased after him to kick a man when he was down, that would be beneath him.

He was a man of status now. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry was no longer worthy of being punched by him!

Chen Sheng's inner thoughts perfectly demonstrated what it meant to borrow a dog's power—pfft.

Well. He should say borrowing a tiger's might as a fox. That sounded better.

With that in mind,

Chen Sheng arrived at the VIP area.

There were six rooms in total, and one of the doors bore Chen Sheng's name.

He pushed the door open.

Inside

was a spacious room.

All kinds of cardio equipment, strength-training equipment, a tea table, lockers, and entertainment facilities were available.

There was even a balcony for the VIP room's user to drink tea and rest.

Chen Sheng looked excited as he touched this and that.

He tried out every piece of equipment.

After his excitement subsided,

he prepared to begin training properly.

He went over to the treadmill.

By now, ordinary running intensity was beginning to fall behind Chen Sheng's physical condition.

He decided to increase the intensity.

Chen Sheng adjusted the speed and incline.

Once he had set them, he started running immediately.

Not long after he began, Chen Sheng felt a clear difference from his usual runs.

The pressure brought by the incline and speed made his stamina drain much faster.

The exertion in his leg muscles was also far more pronounced.

This was exactly the feeling Chen Sheng wanted.

An hour later.

"Whew—"

Chen Sheng stepped off the treadmill, panting heavily.

The instant his feet touched the ground, he even felt unsteady, as though his whole body were floating.

It took quite a while before the feeling gradually faded.

He called up the panel.

The results of this run were exceptionally good.

His constitution increased by 0.05, strength by 0.02, and agility by 0.01. This was nearly equivalent to the results of Chen Sheng running twenty kilometers during the day, while taking only half the time.

Next,

Chen Sheng went to the strength-training area.

After his body received another boost, the weight he could train with had increased again.

Picking up a 35-kilogram dumbbell, Chen Sheng began strength training immediately.

An hour later.

Chen Sheng came to the tea table and looked at the panel while making tea.

Chen Sheng

Strength: 1.37

Agility: 1.16

Constitution: 1.48

Skills: Limitless Body, Three-Body Stance, Xingyi Five Elements Fist

Skill Points: 0.73

His strength had increased by 0.05, while the other two had each increased by 0.01. As Chen Sheng's physical qualities grew stronger and stronger, the effects of his training rose accordingly.

Xingyi Five Elements Fist lv0: 1/500

Compared to the Three-Body Stance, the Five Elements Fist required much more proficiency.

Perhaps it was because it included not only fighting methods, but training methods as well.

Chen Sheng planned to upgrade it at night. When he trained with it alongside the Three-Body Stance, the results would definitely improve again.

His training ended.

After resting briefly, Chen Sheng checked the time.

It was already three in the afternoon.

He could go home for a nap, then get up at night to practice the Three-Body Stance.

After tidying up, Chen Sheng left the gym directly.

After training, thanks to his increased attributes, Chen Sheng still had plenty of stamina left.

Though he was not in peak condition, running nine kilometers would not be a problem.

When he reached the ground floor,

Chen Sheng immediately started running toward home.

Forty minutes later.

He arrived safely at his doorstep.

This run raised his constitution attribute by 0.03. Two days ago, that would have been enough to make him happy.

But now, Chen Sheng had seen bigger things.

Such a small increase was nothing.

As he came to the door,

Chen Sheng took out his key and glanced at the small Wooden House beside him.

Its door was shut tight. Xu Ziwen did not seem to be home.

Without giving it much thought, Chen Sheng opened the door and entered the courtyard.

A large and a small delivery package sat against the wall in the courtyard.

They were the Weighted Gear and earplugs Chen Sheng had bought.

Picking up the packages, he headed straight up to the third floor.

After returning home,

Chen Sheng took out the packet of medicinal herbs as usual and began boiling it, then went into the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came out, the water had just reached a boil.

After setting the timer, he lay down on the bed and fell deeply asleep.

When he woke again, it was already dark.

"Nice!"

Chen Sheng stretched lazily.

The fatigue from his daytime workout had completely vanished after sleeping.

He went to the kitchen.

Just like yesterday, the Vitality Soup still needed another half hour to finish brewing.

Chen Sheng decided to make dinner during that time.

An hour later.

After finishing dinner, Chen Sheng drank the Vitality Soup in one gulp.

While waiting for the Vitality Soup to take effect,

Chen Sheng called up the panel, preparing to upgrade Xingyi Five Elements Fist.

Xingyi Five Elements Fist lv0: 1/500

He focused his mind and pressed the add-point button behind it.

Skill Points rapidly decreased by 0.5. Xingyi Five Elements Fist lv1: 1/2000
