Chapter 99: Abnormal Flesh, a Shortcut to Developing Internal Strength
Just after six o'clock the next day, the self-disciplined student Qi Sui got up from bed without disturbing his night owl roommates. After a simple wash, he changed into clean and loose clothes and left the dormitory.
He has a strong urgency and desire for strength.
According to Shen Luoyan’s previous introduction.
Qi Sui walked all the way deeper into the campus.
Qinglong Martial Arts University is very large, occupying more than 50,000 acres of land in the land-scarce Tianfu city, which is enough to show the school's heritage.
Soon, a building with a dark black exterior was bathed in the morning sunlight.
Compared to the playground, there are obviously fewer students entering and leaving here.
Gravity room!
Only warriors of the tenth level and above can use it on campus.
The building consists of seven floors.
On the lower three floors, the levels of the gravity rooms are relatively low, ranging from 1 to 10 times.
On the three middle floors, the gravity chambers have levels ranging from 10 to 100 times.
As for the top layer, it is a place that can only be used by extraordinary beings in the legend.
"Hey, freshman? You come to the gravity room to exercise on the first day of school. It's rare to find students as talented and hardworking as you!" The building guard is a tall and vigorous old man with gray hair.
He stroked his snow-white beard, looked at Qi Sui with a smile, and then handed him a card.
"This is your gravity training card. When you use it, just insert it into the card slot in the house. Different gravity intensities consume different amounts of money on the card."
"Senior, I would like to exchange for 1000 contribution points first!" Qi Sui said with a painful look on his face.
His current net worth totaled just over 5000 contribution points.
But there is no way!
The gravity room is an essential part of martial arts training.
However, the construction of the gravity room involves many national secrets. It is currently impossible for him to build one on his own and he can only use the existing resources of the school.
"Sure, Wu Erdai? You can redeem 1000 contribution points for the first time. Most students don't have such a generous amount."
The old man smiled and swiped the training card on the professional machine, then handed it over again: "It has 1000 hours of training time recharged in it, enough for you to practice in the double gravity room for 1000 hours."
"And if you're in a double gravity room, the consumption rate will be twice as fast. By analogy, if you don't borrow it, four years should be enough. When you graduate, remember to come to me to return the remaining contribution points."
Four years?
Just as the old man said, Kari's training time was only enough for him to stay in the ten times gravity room for 100 hours.
It will be almost consumed in less than half a month.
Qi Sui had a bitter face. He hadn't even started his university training yet, but he already felt that life was tight. It seemed that he would have to join the ranks of those who worked and studied in the future.
He waved goodbye to the old man and took the elevator directly to the fourth floor.
Zheng Qingshan, who had just sat down to watch the news, was suddenly attracted by the numbers displayed on the elevator screen.
Four?
For a moment, he even wondered if his eyes were blurry.
You should know that the gravity on the fourth floor of the Gravity Building starts at 10 times, and many senior martial artists cannot withstand this gravity.
"I've seen the school's enrollment list this year. The quality is average. There's only one freshman who's passed the martial artist threshold, but he obviously doesn't look like him."
Zheng Qingshan was full of doubts, muttering to himself. An idea popped up in his mind: "There are only two possibilities. One is that this kid has an IQ problem and can't even understand the building introduction sign. The other possibility is... Is this kid running to the gravity room to commit suicide?"
Just as he was about to rush upstairs to stop Qi Sui's suicide, another tall figure walked in.
Shen Luoyan's pretty face showed surprise, and she asked respectfully, "Mr. Zheng, why are you on duty at the Gravity Building today?"
"Haha, it's Luoyan girl. New students have just enrolled, so I came out to take a look around and try to get to know more new faces." Zheng Qingshan smiled gently.
Whenever he mingles with these young and energetic faces, he feels happy that he has not yet aged.
"So, are there any talented people among the freshmen this year?" Shen Luoyan asked curiously.
She was only responsible for the enrollment work in Yun'an and several surrounding provinces. She was not qualified to review the school's nationwide enrollment list.
"Nothing too amazing, just a few talents that deserve a little more attention, the eldest daughter of the Gu family is one of them. As long as she can break through the shackles of the physical body and cultivate internal strength, her future prospects will be limitless."
"There is also the one called Zhou Shentong, the only one who got the SSS-level training plan this year. There is a glimmer of hope that he can enter the Grandmaster realm before graduation, but it is also very slim."
"As for the others... they are just average, far inferior to you. The enrollment is getting worse every year. It's fitting that our Qinglong Martial Arts University is in decline."
Zheng Qingshan let out a sigh.
He is a veteran figure in Qinglong Martial Arts University. He has witnessed the school from its founding, its gradual rise to glory, and its current situation where it is mired in the general public and showing signs of decline.
"That's all. No wonder the school didn't release a new student announcement this year. Looks like we're going to be suppressed again."
Shen Luoyan also felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.
She knew that the other top martial arts universities, especially the arch-rival White Tiger Martial Arts University, had announced it to the world ten days ago.
This year, we recruited seventeen SSS-level training seeds. Each of them cultivated "momentum" and "inner strength" at the age of eighteen and became a respected martial artist.
The strongest one is the national champion in the martial arts college entrance examination and is dubbed the "Newcomer King".
His specific strength has not been exposed, but his terrifying nature can be seen from his horrifying record of killing a "missionary" of the Divine Cult.
"correct!"
After chatting with the girl for a long time, Zheng Qingshan finally thought of the important matter and urged, "Shen girl, go to the fourth floor quickly. A freshman just got a gravity training card from me and seems to be going to commit suicide. Don't let him die in there."
"Freshman? Fourth floor?"
Shen Luoyan instantly realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately walked into the elevator: "Mr. Zheng, you take a rest here first. I will go up and stop his stupid behavior."
……
Fourth floor.
Gravity Room 409.
This is a small room with an area of about 50 square meters, which is simply filled with some equipment for cultivation.
The overall decorative structure is similar to Qinmen's gravity chamber, except that the space is a little smaller.
"Just practice as you can!"
Qi Sui inserted the training card into the card slot.
The instruments in the control room were activated, and a familiar roar and a dazzling red light emerged at the same time.
"11 times gravity, start!"
The occupation panel gives a hint: Internal Strength (12.7%).
As long as you can reach 100% progress experience, the panel should forcibly activate the internal strength of the body.
You can see the progress!
This undoubtedly gave him great motivation to practice.
“Drink, drink, drink!”
Under eleven times the gravity, endless pressure penetrates every pore.
His muscles felt like they were filled with mercury, full of stiffness and pain, and every movement was constantly challenging the limits of his body.
And experience tips are constantly floating above your head.
"【Internal Strength】Progress +0.01%"
"【Internal Strength】Progress +0.01%"
"..."At this time, Shen Luoyan also came to the door of the gravity room.
Looking at the fluorescent words displayed on the instrument on the wall: "In use, 11 times, practice time: 2min16s".
She suddenly felt nervous.
damn it!
Could it be that he has succeeded in committing suicide?
With 11 times the gravity, let alone a new student, even she would feel a little strenuous to break in. An ordinary tenth-level warrior would not be able to hold on for a few seconds before being crushed into a bloody mist.
With this in mind, she began to knock on the door, while thinking about how to break it open violently.
However, what she didn't expect was that a man's question came from the room.
"Who is it? Someone is using it inside, can't you see it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened and a burly half-naked figure appeared in front of him.
"Qi Sui, it's you!"
Shen Luoyan's cherry lips opened slightly, looking as if she had seen a ghost.
Seeing that it was an acquaintance, Qi Sui's annoyance at being interrupted in his practice dissipated a little, and he asked, "Senior Sister Shen? What's the matter?"
Shen Luoyan didn't say anything, but just squeezed into the house.
The dazzling red light enveloped her delicate body, and the terrifying pressure instantly caused her muscles to tighten instinctively.
"It's actually 11 times the gravity, and the monitor is not broken!"
She returned her gaze to Qi Sui and said in astonishment, "Qi Sui, you...are you practicing with 11 times the gravity? I remember that when you finished the college entrance examination, didn't you just pass the ninth level?"
"Senior, didn't I tell you that my strength has improved a little during the summer vacation?" Qi Sui spread his hands helplessly.
He has always attributed his exaggerated improvement in strength to his own invincible talent.
"11 times the gravity... you call that a little progress?"
Shen Luoyan fell into deep self-doubt.
Immediately, she suddenly became excited and said, "Qi Sui, move a little, let me see your current strength level."
"Okay, senior sister, please move aside!"
Qi Sui adjusted his breathing and activated the muscles all over his body. The bulging muscles contained infinite power that could counteract the external gravity, and then he performed a set of boxing techniques in a continuous manner.
11 times the gravity, I’m almost fully adapted to it.
"Stop, okay, okay. 11 times the gravity can't help you cultivate internal strength. You are really a monster!" Shen Luoyan's eyes were strange.
If Qi Sui relied on internal energy to practice in an 11 times gravity room, then she might be able to accept it.
But using only physical strength to resist is simply unheard of!
"I can't bring out my internal energy. I don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing." Qi Sui's tone was full of helplessness.
"Of course it's a good thing. The harder it is to cultivate internal energy, the greater the potential of your body, and the higher the internal energy you can produce. I wonder how many people dream of this."
Shen Luoyan stared at him with her beautiful eyes, as if she was staring at an unpolished jade: "Come on, practice with me. This is the fastest way to stimulate the generation of internal energy in the gravity room."
Sparring!
Qi Sui was moved.
It's not like he hadn't thought of this approach before, but he had no suitable target.
The girl offered, which was exactly what he wanted.
"Then senior sister, you better be careful, I'm going to attack first!"
Qi Sui made an attacking gesture.
After making sure that the girl was ready, his muscles suddenly exploded and he punched the girl's pretty face with a straight punch.
Since he can move freely in the 11 times gravity room, it means that the strength must lie in himself.
There is no need to hold back!
really!
Shen Luoyan narrowed her eyes slightly. She didn't evade with her petite body, but just punched forward without any fancy moves.
Directly pushed Qi Sui back five steps.
"Be serious, or you'll get beaten today!"
After entering combat mode, the girl's tone became extremely cold.
She followed quickly, and raised her slender right leg like a willow branch, hitting Qi Sui's temple.
It was merciless, as if he was experiencing a life-and-death struggle.
【Focus】lv3, start!
All emotions quickly faded away, and Qi Sui turned into an emotionless fighting machine.
He moved extremely quickly, grabbing the girl's ankle like lightning.
A loud elephant cry sounded in the gravity room.
A translucent giant elephant totem appeared behind him.
Giant elephant force!
Qi Sui's muscle shape changed slightly, like a violent giant elephant venting its power. He lifted Shen Luoyan into the air and threw her to the ground.
"Good boy, you're really ruthless, but this is just what I like!"
Shen Luoyan burst into laughter.
Dazzling light and shadow appeared beneath her fair skin, and her graceful body was like a flesh circuit diagram with electricity running through it, a sign of the surging internal energy.
The force of the fall was so great that the entire gravity room shook.
But Shen Luoyan was unharmed. Her delicate body showed amazing flexibility in the air. She used her legs to twist Qi Sui's neck at an incredible angle, and her slender waist burst out with the power to uproot a weeping willow tree.
The lower body strength that Qi Sui was proud of was easily destroyed, and his burly body was smashed against the wall in a mess.
It felt like all the bones in my body were about to fall apart.
As soon as he stood up, he saw a beautiful woman with skin gleaming with light and shadow rushing towards him. Under the influence of internal energy, her slender arms and legs seemed to have transformed into a ferocious female Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The offensive was fierce and violent.
Qi Sui was beaten so badly that he couldn't even raise his head and could only passively resist.
Seeing this, Shen Luoyan took the initiative to hold back. Her purpose was to practice with Qi Sui, not to really beat him to death.
Gradually, Qi Sui got used to the girl's rhythm.
The two exchanged offense and defense, fighting for hundreds of rounds, and a lot of sweat splashed into the air.
Under the dual effects of external gravity and fighting, some wonderful changes seem to occur in the muscles inside the body.
【Internal Strength】The speed of gaining experience is also increasing rapidly.
"【Internal Strength】Progress +0.08%"
"【Internal Strength】Progress +0.12%"
