Translator: 549690339
The next day.
Ding ling ling~
With the alarm ringing, Chen Sheng struggled to crawl out of his bed.
It was just getting light outside.
But this was the best ti to buy groceries.
After washing up and getting dressed, Chen Sheng went straight out.
He found a bun shop in the vegetable market and quickly devoured a big pile of buns under the astonished gaze of the boss.
After finishing breakfast, Chen Sheng began his shopping plan.
“Auntie, give five catties of ribs, ten catties of pork belly, and ten catties of pork flank.”
“Young man, are you having a feast at ho?”
Facing the inquiry from the at-selling auntie,
Chen Sheng had a smile on his face, but nodded with a guilty conscience.
After that, he bought so other ats, vegetables, and seasonings for cooking.
With both hands full of stuff, it took Chen Sheng so effort just to walk out of the vegetable market with his current strength.
Luckily, the vegetable market was close enough to ho, so he managed to barely carry everything back with frequent stops along the way.
He stored the at and vegetables separately and arranged the seasonings.
After finishing all this, Chen Sheng went out again, ready to begin today’s training.
Yesterday’s record of continuous running was 20 minutes, nearly three kiloters, successfully increasing his physical attribute by 0.01.
Chen Sheng used his phone to record his daily training, which was perfect for comparison.
He started running.
Feeling the autumn wind blowing against his face,
Chen Sheng couldn’t help but squint his eyes.
Thanks to the increases in his physical attribute and running skills, running was no longer torture for him, but a process of enjoying getting stronger.
10 minutes, more than a kiloter.
Chen Sheng’s face was normal, and when he passed by the entrance of Wutong Village, he even waved to the motorcycle driver.
20 minutes, nearly three kiloters.
Chen Sheng was slightly gasping for breath, but he still felt full of energy.
25 minutes, more than three kiloters.
His physical attribute increased by 0.01 again, and his body began to recover quickly.
35 minutes, more than four kiloters.
“Aweso!”
On the way, Chen Sheng raised his arm and shouted, attracting the attention of nearby passers-by.
Although his energy was almost drained, the feeling of getting stronger was really addictive.action
With an excited expression on his face, Chen Sheng put down his arm and started to slow down from running to walking.
The remaining journey would be just right for recovering his energy.
An hour later,
Chen Sheng arrived downstairs at Jason Gym.
Perhaps because he arrived too early, the gym hadn’t opened yet.
So he rested for more than an hour in the beverage shop downstairs.
It wasn’t until past ten o’clock that he, fully recovered, went to the gym.
By this ti, there were already quite a number of people there.
Chen Sheng went straight to the changing room and put away his belongings.
He then went to the fitness area.
He happened to run into Coach Jack and Yellow Hair Ah Wei who were also about to start their workout.
The two n secretly glanced at Chen Sheng, showing playful expressions at the sa ti.
“Coach, I bet he won’t co back after today.”
“Not necessarily. He should co back for another day.”
“Alright, then let’s bet on a cup of Moonbucks coffee.”
“No problem.”
The two were actually betting on Chen Sheng.
However, Chen Sheng was unaware of this.
He wasn’t the type to insist on being friendly with soone who wasn’t interested, so he went straight to the treadmill to warm up his body.
Ah Wei, with a relaxed expression on his face, stepped onto the treadmill next to him.
The two began to run together.
During the process, Ah Wei’s playful gaze occasionally fell on Chen Sheng as if expecting to see him make a fool of himself.
However, to his surprise,
10 minutes,
Chen Sheng still looked normal.
15 minutes,
Chen Sheng was just a little out of breath.
20 minutes.
Ah Wei’s eyes slowly widened.
What’s going on?
Did this kid take so kind of drug today?
He was clearly dying after running for less than 20 minutes yesterday.
How is he still full of energy now?
It wasn’t until he ran for 30 minutes that Chen Sheng finally stepped off the treadmill.
Although his breathing was rapid, he didn’t seem as exhausted as he was yesterday.
Actually, Chen Sheng could still run.
With his Physical Attribute increased by another 0.01, his stamina had started to recover.
But there was still strength training to co, so he needed to save so energy.
Perhaps sensing the slightly surprised gaze from Ah Wei,
Chen Sheng turned his head and grinned at him.
“Just practiced a little and I improved.”
“Seems like running isn’t that difficult.”
Chen Sheng held grudges.
He didn’t refute Ah Wei’s mockery yesterday because he admittedly wasn’t as good a runner as him at the ti.
Now that he’s improved, he had to show off a bit—how else would he do justice to his Golden Finger?
If the other party didn’t buy it, that’s fine.
He could show off even more tomorrow.
Having said that,
Chen Sheng didn’t wait for Ah Wei’s reaction and headed straight to the strength area.
Behind him, Coach Jack ca to Ah Wei’s side.
“How long did that kid run today?”
“Thirty minutes.”
“Really? Wasn’t he done after just over ten minutes yesterday?”
Coach Jack showed the sa expression as Ah Wei had earlier.
Ah Wei’s face was ugly, and he slowly nodded.
“I think that guy was pretending to be weak yesterday just to mock .”
“Otherwise, how could soone improve so quickly?”
As he spoke, Ah Wei glanced at the not-too-distant Chen Sheng.
His teeth were grinding.
“Forget it, don’t compare yourself with soone like that.”
“He might be able to fake running, but with that physique, he definitely can’t handle strength.”
Coach Jack comforted Ah Wei and prepared to take him to do so strength training.
At the sa ti,
Chen Sheng had just arrived at the strength area and heard Strong Bro’s loud, drum-like voice.
“Little Chen, over here!”
Strong Bro stood in the dumbbell area, waving at Chen Sheng. His shiny bald head glowed under the sunlight.
“Impressive, most people can’t handle the muscle soreness the day after they start exercising.”
Hearing this,
Chen Sheng suddenly realized that he didn’t seem to feel any muscle soreness at all.
He figured it must be the result of his strength attribute increase, just like how his physical attribute increase had restored his stamina.
“Well, once I’ve decided to train, I have to stick with it.”
Chen Sheng said with a grin.
Such a response imdiately made Strong Bro admire him even more.
“Co on, let’s get you training.”
Next was another hour of strength training.
First ca lifting dumbbells.
Chen Sheng felt a significant change as soon as he picked up the dumbbells.
Yesterday, when he lifted them, there was a sense of heaviness.
But now, that heaviness had clearly diminished a lot.
The training consisted of twelve sets, twelve reps per set, with six sets for each arm.
Yesterday, Chen Sheng could barely manage three sets for each arm before his arms were so sore he couldn’t grip anymore.
But today, he completed all the sets and even had so strength left over.
“Little Chen, how did you…”
Even Strong Bro, who was practicing with him, was a bit stunned.
He had been watching and instructing Chen Sheng during his training yesterday.
With Strong Bro’s many years of fitness experience, he could naturally tell that Chen Sheng was truly giving it his all.
But now, with just one day’s ti, there was such a significant change.
Could it be…
As if thinking of sothing, Strong Bro’s expression beca sowhat dazed.
He didn’t even hear Chen Sheng’s explanation.
