After the two police officers left,
Chen Sheng moved over to the sofa and picked up his phone.
There was a message from Li Chenghu.
Instead of rushing to ask about Shen Ziming’s affairs, he asked if Chen Sheng was safe.
Chen Sheng felt touched.
At the same time, he felt a twinge of guilt for deceiving Li Chenghu.
After all, the other person truly cared for him.
Regrettably,
He couldn’t, and dared not, tell Li Chenghu about his involvement in the killing of the pig-faced man.
But, regarding the other information, he shared everything he knew.
Another ten minutes passed.
After explaining the situation to Li Chenghu, Chen Sheng put down his phone and moved to the center of the living room.
If he waited for his injuries to heal slowly , it might arouse suspicion.
Therefore,
Chen Sheng had a theory.
Increasing his Physical Attribute could restore his stamina.
But, could it also heal injuries?
With that thought in mind,
He began practicing the Three-Body Technique in his living room, enduring the pain.
Fifteen minutes later,
Chen Sheng began to feel a numb tingling sensation in his arm, ribs, and bridge of his nose.
It was working!
He was overjoyed, and it motivated him to practice even harder.
Time slowly ticked away.
Three hours later.
After finishing his practice, Chen Sheng felt a sense of lightness in his body.
Though slight pain still lingered when he touched his injured areas, it no longer hindered his movement.
By tomorrow, he thought, he would be fully recovered.
He summoned his panel.
[Chen Sheng]
[Strength: 2.34] [Agility: 1.97] [Physical Constitution: 2.65]
[Skill Points: 3.18]
All three attributes had increased by 0.18.
His Agility Attribute was even close to breaking the 2.0 mark.
He was also one step closer to upgrading his Three-Body Technique with his Skill Points.
Gurgle-
Perhaps because his body had expended energy to heal his injuries,
Right after finishing his practice of the Three-Body Technique, Chen Sheng was about to take a short rest when he was suddenly overcome by hunger.
With no other choice,
He headed to the kitchen to cook another meal for himself.
After eating, his strength had almost fully returned.
This time, due to his injuries, Chen Sheng hadn’t worn any weights while practicing the Three-Body Technique.
But now that his body was mostly healed, he decided to put them back on, adjusting them to a weight of 50 kg.
He was somewhat curious about the “big gift” Shen Ziming mentioned.
But as he couldn’t find out what it was, all he could do was wait and hope that it wouldn’t be something worthless.
Thinking this,
Chen Sheng, wearing his weights, resumed basic training.
An hour and a half later,
The workout was over.
He summoned his panel once again.
His Strength Attribute had increased by 0.13, reaching 2.47.
The other two attributes also increased by 0.02 each.
Based on Chen Sheng’s approximate calculations, a Strength Attribute of 2-2.3 meant a tenth-rank martial artist.
2.3-2.6 indicated a ninth-rank.
2.6-2.9 represented an eighth-rank.
His current level was approximately that of a ninth-rank martial artist.
As his physical strength grew, Chen Sheng’s rate of improvement greatly exceeded his expectations.
By tomorrow, he estimated, he should be able to surpass Shi Jian, becoming a peak Light Energy martial artist, and begin progressing towards becoming a Hidden Energy Warrior.
He had originally planned to wait until he amassed five Skill Points before he would upgrade his Three-Body Stance.
But now,
After witnessing the might of the pig-faced man,
he decided to upgrade the Five Elements Fist directly after his Strength
Attribute reached three, with the aim to break through to the Hidden Energy Level.
Even though Shen Ziming had assured that Chen Sheng wouldn’t be implicated, he didn’t want to completely rely on others.
Maximizing his own strength was the only way to prepare for potential crises.
“Inner practice cultivates Qi, outer practice strengthens muscles, bones, and skin, so that all tissues throughout the body are connected, thus unleashing Hiaaen Energy, maK1ng eacn puncn ana KICK exponentially more powerrul.’
That’s what Shi Jian had told him when introducing martial arts realms.
Having felt it himself now,
Chen Sheng was, of course, very much looking forward to Hidden Energy.
After a short rest,
It was already late.
Chen Sheng picked up his phone, intending to quickly take a shower then go straight to bed.
But at that moment, he noticed a new message from Li Chenghu.
[Tiger Roams the World: Ah Sheng, do you want to make money?]
Make money?
Chen Sheng’s face lit up.
His wallet had been gradually emptying, so he had been worried. Of course, he would jump at the chance to make money.
[Qingfeng Xulai: Master, what’s the deal?]
