Chapter 97: Chapter 95: Master Level Pull-ups (Fourth Update, Requesting First Subscription)
Scattered floral curtains were gently lifted by the wind, letting in an exceptionally bright ray of sunlight.
It shone upon the young man’s straight nose bridge and dark eyebrows.
Suddenly, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and his eyelids flew open to reveal a pair of eyes gleaming with sharp brilliance.
"Ow—"
Fang Cheng let out a yawn and stretched languidly.
Then, he threw off the covers and sat up straight in bed.
Glancing at the clock on the table, it was almost 10 o’clock.
He shook his head; poor mental state could easily lead to oversleeping.
Fortunately, he always had good sleep quality.
After a sound sleep like this, it seemed that he had recovered quite a bit.
Fang Cheng quickly put on his clothes and trousers, slipped into his slippers, and headed into the bathroom to relieve his bladder.
Then, opening the tap, he grabbed a towel, wrung it wet, and rubbed his face vigorously.
Looking into the mirror at eyes that seemed to become even brighter, he couldn’t help but think of that mysterious Spirit Space.
Last night, he did not choose to open that door and make contact with the person who sent the postcard.
It was entirely a wise move.
With his mental weakness at the time, had he encountered some dangerous situation, it would probably have been more bad than good.
There was no need to rush this matter.
By studying the "Original Vowel," Fang Cheng had successfully awakened the "All-Knowing Language" Talent.
Like holding a master key, he could visit the other party anytime he needed to in the future.
It must be said, deciding to learn Language Skills was quite far-sighted.
Language is not only a medium for people to communicate with each other in daily life but also a carrier that can convey a vast amount of information beyond imagination.
Even in the realm of religion, curses, blessings, talismans, and True Words can all be categorized within the language system.
To exert these abilities, the Spirit Attribute is the basic foundation.
Through a brief observation in the mysterious space, Fang Cheng had also gathered some useful information.
If those bright spots represented people with Extraordinary Power, with brightness determining the level of Spirit Attribute,
Fang Cheng felt like his attribute value was still too low.
A Spirit Attribute of 33 points is indeed high compared to ordinary people.
But compared to those who can shine in the mysterious space and exhibit their presence, it probably belongs to the most basic level.
Thinking of this, Fang Cheng summoned the panel to check the status of all the Skills he currently had.
[Speed Reading lv1 (203/250)]
[Concentration lv1 (229/250)]
[Cooking Skill lv1 (68/250)]
[Cleaning lv1 (19/250)]
[Gourmet lv0 (70/100)]

[Sandfighting lv2 (76/500)]
[Jujitsu lv1 (201/250)]

[Handstand Pushups lv1 (92/250)]
[Pile Skill lv0 (40/100)]
[Blade Technique lv0 (16/100)]
[Gun Skill lv1 (30/250)]
The 4 language-related Skills have already combined into a new Talent, freeing up new Skill slots.
Some of the previously slow-progressing Skills like Boxing, Sandfighting, and Muay Thai have gained significant experience boost through a group combat fight.
And regarding the experience earned from shooting those two gunmen in actual combat, it was several times more than from mere target practice.
Overall, his overall strength has steadily improved.
Among them, several Skills such as Concentration, Speed Reading, Pull-ups, Back Bridge, Lifting Leg, and Jujitsu are not far from leveling up.
Seeing the progress of the fitness Skills, Fang Cheng suddenly remembered he hadn’t done his morning exercise yet.
He couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty.
Indeed, if the Spirit is fatigued, it could also affect the performance of one’s physical state.
"Never mind, I’ll just exercise a bit to make up for my sins."
After freshening up, Fang Cheng stretched his limbs and began his physical training.
First, he performed 800 Single-leg Squats, followed by 600 Fist Push-ups with one hand.
Then, he completed 300 Back Bridges, and 150 Handstand Pushups.
Afterwards, he walked to the bedroom door, leaped with Light Body, and pinched the narrow door frame edge with his five fingers.
He used this method to practice one-handed Pull-ups, aiming to break through in one go.
"..."
"117."
"118."
"119."
Fang Cheng’s figure was stretched out, his back muscles bulging like hills, his biceps exceedingly firm and strong.
Just like an adventurer climbing a steep rock face.
After counting "120", he let go and landed, exhaling softly.
The Pull-ups were not far from leveling up, and a few simple ones easily accomplished the breakthrough.
[Congratulations, through unwavering effort, your Skill has reached the Master level]
[Pull-ups lv2 (0/500)]
[Obtained Skill Enhancement reward, 10 Strength attribute points]
Looking at the attribute point rewards from leveling up, Fang Cheng’s gaze shifted to the character panel that had been updated.
[Strength: 32]
[Agility: 21]
[Constitution: 30]
[Spirit: 33]
This body’s Attributes would definitely be considered "monster" level for an average person.
Feeling the substantial strength in his arm muscles, Fang Cheng then walked into the kitchen.
He decided to use a finger to hook the gas cylinder’s guard, using the half-full steel cylinder as a makeshift dumbbell to exercise.
After trying a few times, he shook his head:
"Too light."
Then, he continued the exercise using his little finger, which still felt very easy.
It seems that to fully utilize this body’s Strength, he needs to find a suitable opponent.
While pondering, his stomach growled loudly.
Fang Cheng slapped his forehead; he forgave himself for waking up late, but even forgetting to eat was truly unforgivable!
He immediately turned around, opened the refrigerator, took out the meat and vegetables, placed them on the stove, and started chopping noisily.
Soon he had made a pot of stir-fried rice with a rich mix of ingredients.
Then, accompanied by two bottles of milk, he polished off five bowls of rice but was still a bit hungry.
After all, he was having breakfast and lunch together.
Seeing that there wasn’t much left in the fridge.
Fang Cheng simply decided to go to the small restaurant downstairs for another meal.
Today, he did not plan to work at the club.
Ever since his fight with Zheng Haokang, he hadn’t taken a proper rest in a long time.
Moreover, with so many things happening yesterday, he needed to calm his mind a bit.
Fang Cheng strolled down the street, planning to go to the supermarket later for shopping.
But inadvertently, he saw the figure of a familiar woman.
Wen Huixi stood in front of a restaurant, seemingly trying to apply for a job as a waitress.
But the proprietress was shaking her head repeatedly in refusal.
Judging by the disdain on her face, she must have heard some unfavorable rumors.
Seeing this, Fang Cheng paused and considered for a moment.
Then he walked towards the woman, who looked downcast and was turning to leave.
"Wen Huixi."
Hearing her name called, Wen Huixi turned her head in surprise.
Seeing Fang Cheng approaching her proactively, she seemed flattered and quickly squeezed out a smile.
"Mr. Fang."
Fang Cheng did not beat around the bush and directly said:
"If you’re looking for a job and don’t mind it being tiresome, you can come with me and try out at the clinic ahead."
Wen Huixi, on hearing this, nodded earnestly:
"As long as the boss is willing to hire me, I’m willing to do anything!"
Fang Cheng smiled and nodded.
Although he didn’t know if she could stick with it,
Since she was willing to take this step, she deserved a helping hand.
