Chapter 4: Two body-building methods, start hanging up! 【Please collect】
Evening
The menial apprentices finished a busy day.
Regardless of their fatigue, everyone gathered at the martial arts training ground after a hurried dinner.
The martial arts training ground of Chen's Pharmacy was not big, occupying only a 10-zhang square open space on the left side of the backyard. Dozens of new and old apprentices crowded the place.
A middle-aged man in a black robe stood there.
His eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he stunned everyone at a glance.
The crowd was silent and the atmosphere became somewhat depressing.
"I'm Wang Mu, and I've been serving as the martial arts instructor of the guard team." The middle-aged man said loudly, "You can call me Coach Wang."
"Meet Coach Wang!"
The young men greeted him tactfully in unison.
Master Wang nodded in satisfaction and continued, "The world is in chaos now. Whether you are practicing medicine, collecting herbs in the mountains, or guarding the herb garden, you need to use force to protect yourself. Without a strong physique and strength, even the wealth you have is just a dish in someone else's bowl."
"You are all disaster victims who come from poor families. If you want to live better than others, you have to work hard. Now the pharmacy has given you a chance to turn things around. Don't be ungrateful. Do you understand?"
"yes!"
The boys roared in high spirits.
The deafening sound attracted attention from people inside and outside the pharmacy.
Many old pharmacists looked at this place with a hint of nostalgia.
Once upon a time, they were so passionate.
"Martial artists should first practice boxing and kicking before moving on to sword fighting!" Coach Wang continued, "The first step is to build the body and train strength as the foundation, which is called the strength training stage!"
"Then, step by step, you will refine your skin, refine your blood, forge your bones, cleanse your marrow, and open your orifices until you reach the realm of Tiangang, where heaven and man are one. The strong ones can move mountains and rivers and slay demons with their swords!"
"We have two basic body-building and strength-training methods in our Chen's Pharmacy, namely 'Hunyuan Gong' and 'Wuqin Jue'. Although they are not superior methods, they are stronger than the methods of ordinary martial arts schools and can allow you to reach the peak of strength training."
"I will practice each of them now, and you guys just watch carefully! I don't ask you to learn both, I just hope you can choose the one that suits you best."
After Coach Wang finished speaking, he immediately got into position and started practicing boxing.
He was seen punching, kicking and shouting continuously, his fists were so powerful that they raised dust all over the sky, shocking the young men so much that their eyes lit up.
"So powerful! This Hun Yuan Kung looks really good!"
"Not bad at all. I heard from the old man in the pharmacy that this Hun Yuan Gong is actually not that great. It's only slightly better than the common martial arts on the street."
"I wonder how powerful the Five Animals Technique is, and whether it's difficult!"
The teenagers talked excitedly.
Coach Wang didn't waste any time and spent an incense stick of time practicing both techniques, explaining them as he demonstrated.
"The Hun Yuan Gong is a bodybuilding and strength-building method that consists of nine styles and thirty-six movements. It emphasizes the unity of the universe, letting the mind follow the will and the strength follow the qi! You must do each movement as well as you can. It will greatly stimulate every muscle in your body to become stronger!"
"The Five Animals Technique is more complicated. It imitates five animals: tiger, deer, bear, ape, and crane. It has a total of 18 styles and 81 movements. Once you have mastered it, you will have the power of the five animals. You can attack or defend, and it is incredibly powerful!"
"It would be best if you can master the Five Animal Skills. If not, don't force it. Most of us in the guard team practice the Hun Yuan Gong!"
"Besides, you are still young and haven't had enough food for a long time, so your physiques are completely incapable of reaching the standard for tempering. Just familiarize yourself with the movements first, and don't force yourself to practice. You can practice more later when your bodies are stronger."
Coach Wang explained patiently.
His original intention was to let everyone have an impression of the exercises and then choose one that suits them to practice.
But he could never have imagined that Wei Han next to him had a strange look on his face.
The system has quietly included the complete versions of the two body-building and strength-training methods.
【bite! "Hunyuan Gong" has been successfully included. It is currently in normal idle mode. The proficiency increases by 3 points per hour. The current proficiency is 1/1000 for beginners. Friendly reminder: krypton gold can increase the idle speed of this skill. 】

【bite! You have listened to the Hunyuan Gong techniques, proficiency +2! 】
【bite! You have listened to the Five Animals Technique techniques, your proficiency level +1! 】
Prompts kept ringing.
Wei Han's eyes immediately lit up.
Can listening to Coach Wang’s lectures actually improve your proficiency?
This feeling of becoming stronger while lying down is really great.
It seemed as if Wei Han had two more clones in his mind, which were constantly practicing "Hunyuan Gong" and "Wuqin Jue". These two seemingly complicated body-building exercises were gradually memorized by him.
At the same time, the skills began to temper the body!
Wei Han only felt his muscles getting hotter and hotter.
It seemed as if billions of cells in his body were screaming.
They are like a long-awaited rain after a long drought, and naturally desire to consume more energy.
Billions of cells were burning like boiling water, and his whole body was boiling with blood as if he had just done a few sets of boxing. His stomach was also working like crazy, and the food he had just eaten turned into nutrients, constantly nourishing his body.
"Oops!"
“I’m so hungry!”
"Fuck!"
A horrible feeling of hunger came over me.
The food you just eat is quickly transformed into nutrients and absorbed.
Wei Han's physique and blood energy had inadvertently improved a lot.
But the intense hunger made his cheeks twitch uncomfortably.
Automatically becoming stronger is not a panacea. As the saying goes, a good cook cannot cook without rice. Without energy intake, automatic cultivation is a torture.
Wei Han quickly stopped the two skills.
After taking a deep breath, he suppressed his depression, and only one thought remained in his mind - to make money!
"If you are poor in literature and rich in martial arts, without enough resources, even practicing martial arts is a luxury."
Wei Han, still frightened, grabbed a few pieces of white peony and swallowed them raw, which relieved his hunger a lot.
Fortunately, this is a pharmacy, and the floor is full of medicinal materials waiting to be processed.
White peony root looks similar to yam, and a few chews of it can fill your stomach.
"Wait! Huh?"
Wei Han suddenly realized something was wrong.
As soon as these white peonies were swallowed, they were immediately crushed by the hungry stomach.
His stomach crushed and absorbed like a meat grinder.
Waves of invisible nourishing medicinal power penetrate into every part of the body.
Wei Han immediately narrowed his eyes in comfort.
"It turns out that not only food can serve as nourishment for the body, but medicinal herbs can as well!" Wei Han analyzed with surprise: "Most people might worry that the medicinal herbs are poisonous or that they are too weak to be nourished, but I don't have to worry. Anyway, I won't die no matter what I do."
"The toxins in the herbs that are harmful to my body will be automatically eliminated by my system, while those that are beneficial to me will be retained."
"So I can just keep swallowing the herbs, absorbing the nutrients in them, and maintaining my upgrade!"
The more Wei Han thought about it, the happier he became, and he decisively stuffed a few more handfuls of white peony into his mouth.
At the same time, the automatic activation of the two body-building and strength-training exercises was turned on again.
The feeling of slowly becoming stronger without him noticing made him slowly become addicted to it and unable to extricate himself.
