The gym beside the Mid-Levels Villa District, which was nearly finished being renovated, opened for business over the weekend. Lin Qi arrived at nine in the morning.

Outside the gym, countless posters and various bodybuilding champions displayed their impressive physiques to passersby. There were both men and women among them.

At this time, bodybuilding had not yet become heavily influenced by "technology." People did not take certain drugs to speed up the bodybuilding process, much less inject all sorts of strange substances into their muscles to achieve similar effects.

Everyone still maintained the purest "classic bodybuilding" style: broad backs and shoulders, paired with an extremely slender waist.

People worshiped the inverted triangle shape of the upper body, believing that it represented true beauty. This was completely different from the later aesthetic of bodies that were equally thick from top to bottom and covered in muscle bulges.

Sometimes, you might even fear that they would suddenly snap in half at the waist!

The temperature was only a little over twenty degrees Celsius. Watching those men and women in simple clothes, their bodies coated in oil, striking various bodybuilding poses in the gym's windows and on the mats outside, Lin Qi suddenly felt a little fed up.

Fortunately, Sera had also invited some Noble Ladies and people from the fashion industry to show their support. It had to be said that once a woman had money, expanding her social circle became incredibly easy.

She had established relationships with quite a few Noble Ladies. As long as they could do their hair together, have a beauty treatment together, or attend Fashion Week together once, it was enough to turn them into close friends.

There was something frightening in the way the Noble Ladies looked at the bodybuilders. It was like... hungry wild dogs
