Cultivating through increasing my stats in America Chapter 6 Xiao Lian Shou Practice

Over the past five days, he had allocated all his Breakthrough Points to [Physique].

Coupled with high-intensity training every day, the result was his [Physique] had now completely reached the level expected of a standard healthy adult male.

But don't underestimate this change, because a standard healthy adult male's constitution doesn't represent the average.

In fact, Li Ang's current constitution could easily surpass that of 90% of ordinary people without any problem.

For most people, in the absence of healthy exercise habits and good living routines, it is difficult to maintain their bodies in a completely healthy state.

More people are like the middle-aged corporate drone Li used to be, in a subhealth state, with more or less so physical issues.

The consistent running exercise over these days had also enabled him to successfully master the skill of [Running], and he had even advanced it to the [Proficient] level.

With the skill level improved, the increase in exercise experience and technique naturally goes without saying.

At the sa ti, he was surprised to find that when his skill broke through to a new grade, he simultaneously gained a green-font Trait.

For instance, when [Cycling] reached [Proficient], the Trait gained was a 10% increase in lower limb strength and endurance.

The difference is that this increase in strength was not obtained through slow training, but the mont he gained it, he felt his strength grow.

The magnitude of physical changes and leaps these five days had brought about effects that he wouldn't possibly have achieved from five months of training before.

Li Ang now not only had muscular definition on his arms but even his abs were clearly visible.

Previously, although so abs could be seen, they were all due to being thin.

At a height of 175cm, his weight was only 55 kilograms – describing him as skinny would be no exaggeration.

Now, after five days, not only had his weight increased by two kilograms, but his height had also grown by a centiter.

While the numbers didn't change much, his overall spirit and appearance had undergone a huge transformation.

To give a direct comparison, it was like evolving from a traditional science geek into an outgoing and sunny young man.

After confirming his current condition, Li Ang turned to the manual of fists again and began to learn the actions step by step.

The movents of Xiao Lian Shou were not complex, but they required continuity, and the position of the arms, the steps of the feet, and even the direction faced would all change with the execution of moves.

At the beginning, he could only imitate each move slowly, trying to perfect the actions and positions as much as possible.

After that, it was ti to connect several moves together.

As for seamless motion coordination and strength exertion, that was not sothing he could master montarily.

By contrast, the Pile Skill that accompanied Tongbei Fist was much simpler, and in just over half an hour, he felt he was already standing quite decently.

Until the sun set, all the joints in Li Ang's body were sore and aching.

Unfortunately, his panel still didn't display the skill of [Tongbei Fist].

Not even the Pile Skill, which he thought was relatively simple, appeared.

It must be that what he considered as standing well was still far from truly standing well.

However, Li Ang didn't feel discouraged, as it would have been abnormal if he could beco a beginner in just half a day.

In fact, his achievents for the day were not insignificant, having morized and mastered each individual practice move.

Li Ang could feel that his mory now, compared to when he was working, had beco more than twice as strong.

His mory used to be quite good during high school, but it began to deteriorate significantly from college onwards, after long nights and all-nighters online.

A few years into his work, as his age increased, his mory further declined.

Forgetting to take things when going out was common, and if work tasks were not listed in a spreadsheet, they would inevitably be overlooked.

Li Ang doubted very much that he would be able to reach retirent age without succumbing to dentia.

Yet now, he managed to morize so many moves in such a short ti, rembering each one completely and clearly — his mory had obviously surpassed its pri.

The energy he exhausted today was clearly greater than usual from doing those simple exercises.

In the evening, Li Ang cooked a big pot of tomato and potato beef stew for himself. It seed that due to the improvent of his physical attributes, his various sensory perceptions, including his sense of sll and taste, had also improved.

Therefore, he was quite satisfied with the flavor of tonight's al.

In the cooking profession, a chef's keen sense of taste and sll are fundantal. If one can't taste the quality oneself, there's no hope that the al will be delicious.

Before dinner, Li Ang thought it over and decided to take a bowl of his dish to invite his neighbor to try it.

After all, they had given him food before, and they got along quite well in their daily lives. Not to ntion anything else, the least he could do was to observe the basic social niceties.

Li Ang stood at the door and rang the doorbell.

"Thump thump thump."

It sounded like the noise of soone running barefoot on a wooden floor.

The sound stopped at the door for two seconds, then the door opened, revealing a surprised Sheila.

She seed to have been exercising just before, dressed in a black sports tank top, paired with black yoga pants, and barefooted.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and there were so fine beads of sweat on her forehead.

"Li, is this for ?"

Sheila looked at Li Ang with a face full of surprise and asked.

She had slled a delicious fragrance as soon as she opened the door, which seed very appetizing.

"Yes,"

Li Ang nodded.

"I just don't know if it suits your taste."

Li Ang didn't know why, but he felt his heartbeat was sowhat fast. It seed he had practiced too hard today.

"Why don't you co in and eat with ? There's so much, I can't finish it by myself, and there are so snacks baking in my oven."

Sheila had intended to express her thanks, but for so reason, her words turned into an invitation.

She just felt that the young man in front of her had undergone quite a significant change from a few days ago, but she couldn't quite pinpoint the specific changes.

If she had to describe it, it was that he'd acquired more of a man's aura.

"I shouldn't, I still have rice cooking at ho..."

Li Ang appeared sowhat uneasy, as his original intention was just to deliver so food, an act of simple reciprocity. He didn't know how it had turned into having dinner together.

Before he could finish his refusal, Sheila grabbed his arm and pulled him inside the house.

"I must have overexerted myself in training today, why do I not have any strength to resist?"

Li Ang mused to himself.

In the middle of the living room, there was a huge yoga mat laid out, and a yoga class was still running on the TV. He could faintly sll a sweet scent mixed with butter.

After they sat down close to each other on the couch, Sheila glanced over Li Ang's body, raised her eyebrows, and inquired:

"Did you do any physical training today?"
