I Attained Invincibility In The Real World - Chapter 41
Chapter 41: Chapter 40: Recovery and the 9th Rank Martial Artist
Translator: 549690339
After the two police officers left,
Chen Sheng moved over to the sofa and picked up his phone.
There was a message from Li Chenghu.
Instead of rushing to ask about Shen Ziming’s affairs, he asked if Chen Sheng was safe.
Chen Sheng felt touched.
At the same time, he felt a twinge of guilt for deceiving Li Chenghu.
After all, the other person truly cared for him.
Regrettably,
He couldn’t, and dared not, tell Li Chenghu about his involvement in the killing of the pig-faced man.
But, regarding the other information, he shared everything he knew.
Another ten minutes passed.
After explaining the situation to Li Chenghu, Chen Sheng put down his phone and moved to the center of the living room.
If he waited for his injuries to heal slowly , it might arouse suspicion.
Therefore,
Chen Sheng had a theory.
Increasing his Physical Attribute could restore his stamina.
But, could it also heal injuries?
With that thought in mind,
He began practicing the Three-Body Technique in his living room, enduring the pain.
Fifteen minutes later,
Chen Sheng began to feel a numb tingling sensation in his arm, ribs, and bridge of his nose.
It was working!
He was overjoyed, and it motivated him to practice even harder.
Time slowly ticked away.
Three hours later.
After finishing his practice, Chen Sheng felt a sense of lightness in his body.
Though slight pain still lingered when he touched his injured areas, it no longer hindered his movement.
By tomorrow, he thought, he would be fully recovered.
He summoned his panel.
[Chen Sheng]
[Strength: 2.34] [Agility: 1.97] [Physical Constitution: 2.65]
[Skill Points: 3.18]
All three attributes had increased by 0.18.
His Agility Attribute was even close to breaking the 2.0 mark.
He was also one step closer to upgrading his Three-Body Technique with his Skill Points.
Gurgle-
Perhaps because his body had expended energy to heal his injuries,
Right after finishing his practice of the Three-Body Technique, Chen Sheng was about to take a short rest when he was suddenly overcome by hunger.
With no other choice,
He headed to the kitchen to cook another meal for himself.
After eating, his strength had almost fully returned.
This time, due to his injuries, Chen Sheng hadn’t worn any weights while practicing the Three-Body Technique.
But now that his body was mostly healed, he decided to put them back on, adjusting them to a weight of 50 kg.
He was somewhat curious about the “big gift” Shen Ziming mentioned.
But as he couldn’t find out what it was, all he could do was wait and hope that it wouldn’t be something worthless.
Thinking this,
Chen Sheng, wearing his weights, resumed basic training.
An hour and a half later,
The workout was over.
He summoned his panel once again.
His Strength Attribute had increased by 0.13, reaching 2.47.
The other two attributes also increased by 0.02 each.
Based on Chen Sheng’s approximate calculations, a Strength Attribute of 2-2.3 meant a tenth-rank martial artist.
2.3-2.6 indicated a ninth-rank.
2.6-2.9 represented an eighth-rank.
His current level was approximately that of a ninth-rank martial artist.
As his physical strength grew, Chen Sheng’s rate of improvement greatly exceeded his expectations.
By tomorrow, he estimated, he should be able to surpass Shi Jian, becoming a peak Light Energy martial artist, and begin progressing towards becoming a Hidden Energy Warrior.
He had originally planned to wait until he amassed five Skill Points before he would upgrade his Three-Body Stance.
But now,
After witnessing the might of the pig-faced man,
he decided to upgrade the Five Elements Fist directly after his Strength
Attribute reached three, with the aim to break through to the Hidden Energy Level.
Even though Shen Ziming had assured that Chen Sheng wouldn’t be implicated, he didn’t want to completely rely on others.
Maximizing his own strength was the only way to prepare for potential crises.
“Inner practice cultivates Qi, outer practice strengthens muscles, bones, and skin, so that all tissues throughout the body are connected, thus unleashing Hiaaen Energy, maK1ng eacn puncn ana KICK exponentially more powerrul.’
That’s what Shi Jian had told him when introducing martial arts realms.
Having felt it himself now,
Chen Sheng was, of course, very much looking forward to Hidden Energy.
After a short rest,
It was already late.
Chen Sheng picked up his phone, intending to quickly take a shower then go straight to bed.
But at that moment, he noticed a new message from Li Chenghu.
[Tiger Roams the World: Ah Sheng, do you want to make money?]
Make money?
Chen Sheng’s face lit up.
His wallet had been gradually emptying, so he had been worried. Of course, he would jump at the chance to make money.
[Qingfeng Xulai: Master, what’s the deal?]
Just in case, Chen Sheng decided to listen before making a decision.
If it required too much time, even if it compressed his training time, he would have to regretfully decline.
[Tiger Roams the World: I’m planning to get everyone under me to try learning martial arts, so I’m thinking of hiring a martial arts instructor, four hours each morning is all that’s needed] [What do you think, interested?]
At this remark,
Chen Sheng remembered that Li Xingwu had mentioned this when he was talking nonsense at the martial arts hall.
[Qingfeng Xulai: No problem]
He agreed straight away without even asking about the reward.
By now, Chen Sheng owed Li Chenghu a lot of favors.
Even without a reward, he wouldn’t mind helping out.
[Tiger Roams the World: Alright, I’ve almost prepared everything. Come straight here tomorrow morning. I’ll send you a message]
It seemed that Li Chenghu was well-prepared.
After setting a time, Chen Sheng put the phone down and took a quick shower in the bathroom.
Returning to his room, he looked out the window before going to bed.
The downpour had come quickly and went just as fast.
Now, there was only a drizzle outside.
In the dark night, Chen Sheng could clearly see a flickering light not far away.
It was probably the police from the Wu’an Bureau responding to a call and searching for Shen Ziming.
After a glance, Chen Sheng took his eyes off the scene.
He turned off the light and as soon as he lay in bed, waves of sleepiness washed over him.
Early the next morning.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
“Any…anyone there?”
Still in the midst of his dreams, Chen Sheng was abruptly awakened by knocking sounds downstairs.
The sound wasn’t loud,
but because of his high agility attribute, his hearing sharpness had also increased.
Squinting, he went to the window and looked outside.
The sight instantly swept away the sleepiness from his mind.
Even though he couldn’t see the full appearance of the person standing behind the door.
He recognized that the person was wearing a police uniform.
Chen Sheng’s heart tightened.
Did the Wu’an Bureau discover something?
“I’ll be right there!”
Having shouted out the window, Chen Sheng quickly came downstairs.
“What’s the matter, officer?” As he said this, he opened the door.
The next second.
“Huh?
“You?” X2
Chen Sheng and the person at the door both froze.
The person was wearing a police uniform.
A long ponytail hung by her waist.
Despite the grime on her face, Chen Sheng recognized her.
This was the Qi-sensor he had encountered a few days ago while catching robbers.
Seems like her name was… Xu Rou?
“Why?” X2
“You go first.” X2
Alright then.
Their second meeting was strangely in sync with each other.
Chen Sheng smiled wryly and made a zip mouth gesture on his lips.
Seeing this, Xu Rou spoke again.
“Hi, I came to warn the nearby residents.”
“The person involved in the fight yesterday, who is a teacher named Xu Ziwen.”
“He is an extremely dangerous fugitive. If you see him, do not engage and contact us immediately.”
With that said, Xu Rou took out a piece of paper and wrote down two phone numbers.
“The one on top is the phone number of the Wu’an Bureau.”
“The one below is my personal number. You can also directly call this one.”
“Remember, absolutely do not engage with him.”
Xu Rou spoke very seriously.
Since they didn’t discover anything related to him, Chen Sheng relaxed.
He smiled and nodded.
“Don’t worry Officer Xu, I will notify you immediately if there are any updates.”
“Good, thank you.”
After she said that,
Xu Rou turned to leave.
However, her pace was hesitant, and her face showed signs of struggle.
Eventually,
She seemed to have made up her mind.
“Excuse me—”
However,
When Xu Rou turned around,
She was greeted by a closed iron door.
She instantly deflated, just like a punctured ball.
Ever since she saw Chen Sheng’s Xingyi Fist, she had been wanting to practice martial arts.
She had read the martial arts materials at the Wu’an Bureau, but without guidance, her progress was slow.
Although Li Chenghu would sometimes guide her on the Three-Body Technique , she was clueless for the Five Elements Fist and the Twelve Forms Boxing.
Today, she luckily bumped into Chen Sheng again. She had planned to get to know him and ask for guidance in martial arts.
Now,
Her hopes were dashed once again.
Sigh—
With that in mind,
Xu Rou walked towards the next house with a heavy heart..
