"What genius?"
Li Chenghu looked at Strong Bro puzzledly.
Then,
he turned his gaze to Chen Sheng.
Next second,
Li Chenghu's previously unhappy expression quickly turned serious.
"What's going on with you?"
"Did you go to a brothel last night?"
???
Upon hearing this,
Chen Sheng was covered in cold sweat.
Is this a re-enactment with me?
"No Tiger Bro, I..."
Just as he was about to explain,
Li Chenghu directly grabbed his wrist and took his pulse with a frown.
After a few moments,
he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Good, it's just a severe depletion of energy, but it hasn't reached the point of exhaustion."
But his brow was still tightly knitted.
"What happened?"
"Why did your body become so weak after just one night?"
At this moment,
Chen Sheng could only repeat what he had just said to Strong Bro.
As for this,
Li Chenghu was half-believing and half-doubting and asked Chen Sheng to perform.
He sat at the tea table and began to pour tea.
As a result,
when Chen Sheng started to practice the Three-body Stance again,
Li Chenghu's hand, which was leisurely holding the teacup, paused.
"That's enough."
Chen Sheng was stopped directly before he could stand for long.
"Your body is currently depleted of energy, don't practice the Three-body Stance recklessly."
Just now, Chen Sheng's posture was very standard.
Even Li Chenghu himself couldn't find any faults.
But this was only after one night!
This was beyond the realm of genius.
It was more like a monster.
The shock in Li Chenghu's heart was no less than that of Strong Bro half an hour ago.
It's just that he had enough self-control not to show it too obviously.
"Come, drink this cup of tea."
Li Chenghu poured a cup of tea from his own cup and handed it to Chen Sheng.
The tea was jujube red, clear to the bottom.
Chen Sheng didn't hesitate and drank it all in one go.
"Tiger Bro, what kind of tea is this?"
After finishing, Chen Sheng asked.
"Energy Enhancing Tea."
Li Chenghu's sudden statement made Chen Sheng's expression freeze.
Chen Sheng's mouth was wide open, wanting to spit but not daring to.
Seeing this,
Li Chenghu smiled slightly.
"Next time before you drink something given by others, it's better to be careful."
"Rest assured, this is Qi-nourishing Tea, which can slightly replenish the energy you've lost."
"After drinking it, at least you can ensure that your body can handle today's training."
Chen Sheng finally sighed in relief.
At the same time, he felt that once the tea entered his stomach, his body felt warm and extremely comfortable.
Then,
Li Chenghu resumed his serious expression.
"Chen Sheng."
"Are you sure you want to practice martial arts?"
As soon as the words fell, seeing Chen Sheng about to speak, Li Chenghu raised his hand to interrupt.
"Don't rush to answer."
"I can tell you in advance that my willingness to take you as an apprentice is not just because of your talent, but also for other purposes."
"Even in the near future, I may need you to do some extremely dangerous things for me."
"Dangerous enough that if you're not careful, you'll lose your life."
"I can clearly tell you that with your martial arts talent, you can shine wherever you learn martial arts."
"So, I hope you think carefully."
If it had been a day earlier,
Li Chenghu would not have said the last few sentences.
But after witnessing Chen Sheng's talent, he had already developed a talent-saving heart.
That's why he advised and warned, hoping that the other party would back off.
"Will it be illegal, Tiger Bro?"
However,
Chen Sheng's answer once again caught Li Chenghu off guard.
He stared blankly for a few seconds before shaking his head slowly.
"No, it's not illegal."
"Then it's okay."
Chen Sheng grinned and bowed deeply to Tiger Bro.
"Thank you, Tiger Bro!"
Apparently,
This was Chen Sheng's answer.
Li Chenghu nodded.
"Since you have already decided, I won't nag about it."
"When you finish your training, come find me here."
After saying that,
Li Chenghu walked to the side, ready to begin his own training.
Chen Sheng and Strong Bro then walked towards the exit of the room.
As they passed the mirror on the wall, Chen Sheng looked at himself in the mirror and noticed that his complexion had improved since the morning.
Just that one cup of Qi-nourishing Tea could have such a powerful effect.
Chen Sheng planned to ask Li Chenghu later if he could share the method for making the Qi-nourishing tea.
With the tea, he would be able to practice the Three-body Stance without restraint, and his physical fitness would improve rapidly.
With that thought, Chen Sheng went directly to the Strength area.
Coach Jack and Ah Wei were also in the training area, but they had a weird and mocking look when they saw Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng didn't care about their behavior.
He bent down, ready to grab a dumbbell to start training.
But as soon as he picked up the dumbbell,
Chen Sheng felt something was wrong.
It was so light.
He had picked up a 15kg dumbbell,
but it felt effortless compared to yesterday's weight.
Chen Sheng immediately put the dumbbell down and picked up a 20kg one.
Still light.
He only felt the familiar heaviness again after picking up a 25kg dumbbell.
"Little Chen, are you serious?"
Seeing Chen Sheng lifting the 25kg dumbbell to begin training, Strong Bro was startled and quickly came forward to stop him.
Ah Wei and his friend exchanged glances,
and involuntarily revealed a horrified expression.
In their eyes, Chen Sheng should not be able to lift a 25kg dumbbell.
That kid, is he going crazy trying to catch up to me?
Ah Wei carefully glanced at Chen Sheng, then pulled Coach Jack with him to leave.
They didn't want to get hit if Chen Sheng accidentally dropped the dumbbell while lifting it.
"Don't worry, Strong Bro, I'm fine."
Chen Sheng insisted on his own decision.
Seeing that, Strong Bro had no choice but to give up trying to persuade him.
However, he didn't leave but stood nearby, watching Chen Sheng with a worried look, ready to help him at the sight of difficulty.
However,
as time went by,
the scene of Chen Sheng becoming overwhelmed that Strong Bro had anticipated did not happen.
The familiar shocked expression appeared on his face again.
Even though it was somewhat difficult for him,
Chen Sheng actually managed to complete all 12 sets of training with a 25kg dumbbell.
One shock after another made Strong Bro feel his nerves had become somewhat numb.
Genius... anything is possible.
Strong Bro comforted himself in his heart, gradually recovering from the shock.
His quick recovery was because he had already witnessed Chen Sheng's demon-like abilities.
But Ah Wei and Coach Jack were not as calm as Strong Bro.
They stared dumbfounded at Chen Sheng, completely petrified as if turned to stone.
Wasn't Chen Sheng lifting a 15kg dumbbell yesterday?
Why is it 25kg today?!
What kind of monster is he?!
Who taught you to work out like this?!
Their inner turmoil was like a raging storm, feeling as if their understanding of the world had been refreshed.
At this moment,
Ah Wei had completely lost the idea of competing with Chen Sheng.
What the hell?!
At this rate, will he be flying around with 100kg dumbbells in a week?
Ah Wei looked at the 20kg dumbbell in his hand.
He had only trained a few sets yesterday, and today his muscles were so sore that he could only lift lighter weights than before.
Chen Sheng, who had been lifting 10kg dumbbells just two days ago, was now lifting a 25kg dumbbell with fierce determination.
The discrepancy between people,
was especially apparent at this moment in the strength area.
During the following training,
Ah Wei clearly appeared disheartened.
In the end,
he didn't even finish his training, and left the gym with an excuse.
Chen Sheng was not aware of the inner drama of those around him; he was completely immersed in the pleasure of getting stronger.
Two hours later.
Chen Sheng sat on a chair after completing his training, massaging his muscles.
[Chen Sheng]
[Strength: 1.11]
[Agility: 1]
[Constitution: 1.16]
[Skill Points: 0.49]
Today's training increased his Strength attribute by 0.03.
With just a bit more Skill Points, he would be able to upgrade the Three-body Stance.
"Let's go, Tiger Bro's training is over."
At this moment,
Strong Bro's voice reached him.
Chen Sheng excitedly stood up from the chair.
Finally, time to become an apprentice.
"Let's go!"
