From MC's Perspective:
After returning to my room, I felt the weight of my recent breakthrough still buzzing in my mind. The tension from the long, arduous process finally began to ease. I decided to unwind. Stepping into the bath, the warm water soothed my muscles, washing away the fatigue from the intense cultivation.
The bath lasted for a full 20 minutes, a rare moment of relaxation amidst my usual rigorous training. Once I finished, I dried off and slipped into comfortable clothes, feeling the warmth of my new strength humming beneath my skin.
The breakthrough had brought more than just power—it had given me a newfound sense of confidence. I could feel it in the way my body moved, each step lighter yet more solid, the energy in my veins more refined.
