“The place you mentioned that could make people feel good turned out to be the massage room on the second floor of the martial arts center?”

On the second floor of the Source Martial Arts Center, Lu Yuan looked at Cheng Peng beside him with a surprised expression.

Cheng Peng retorted, "What else did you think it was?"

A strange look appeared on Lu Yuan's face, and he shook his head. "Nothing."

Cheng Peng glanced at him with disdain, then walked to the front desk and showed his student ID.

Five minutes later, after some procedures, Lu Yuan was arranged into a separate small room.

"Just wait here, someone will come and give you a massage later.

This massage is very effective, I guarantee that your muscles will not hurt tomorrow after one session, and you will be alive and kicking."

Cheng Peng patted his chest and assured Lu Yuan, "Then I'll go down and practice for a while, come find me after you're done."

Lu Yuan nodded.

After Cheng Peng left, he scanned the small room in front of him.

The air conditioner was on in the room, and the temperature was pleasant.

In the middle was a narrow small bed with a neatly folded bathrobe on it, and a small locker stood beside the bed.

Lu Yuan put his backpack in the locker, then went to the bathroom for a quick shower and changed his clothes.

Then he sat on the bed and waited, during which he briefly told his parents on his phone that he would be going back a little later as he was at the martial arts center.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Lu Yuan put down his phone and saw a middle-aged man stride in carrying a box.

Seeing the two thick arms under the man's loose training clothes, Lu Yuan felt inexplicably uncomfortable, as if something was strange.

Fortunately, the man's kind and friendly smile quickly dispelled this feeling.

"Lie on the bed."

"Yes."

Lu Yuan obediently lay down on the small bed.

The man opened the box, took out a small stove, lit it with a lighter, and placed it squarely on the small table beside the bed.

A faint sandalwood scent emanated from the stove, and Lu Yuan's heart gradually calmed down.

"Did you push yourself too hard during training?"

The man reached out and gently pressed on Lu Yuan's legs and body, and spoke to him.

"Many muscles have tears and strains..."

"Is it serious?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"Not serious."

The man shook his head and said, "After all, it's a martial arts center, it's inevitable for disciples to have bruises and injuries. I've seen many cases much worse than yours."

Lu Yuan was relieved.

Then the man asked Lu Yuan to take off his clothes and lie on his stomach on the small bed.

He took out a white ointment and gently applied it to Lu Yuan's thighs, calves, arms, and back.

The ointment felt cool on the body. This time, before Lu Yuan could speak, the man had already taken the initiative to explain, "This is the secret medicine of the martial arts center. Apply it, and with my massage techniques, you will fully recover in a day or two."

"Secret medicine?"

"Yes, only students of the martial arts center are eligible to use it. You can't buy it outside even if you have money... I'm going to start now."

The man spoke calmly, and suddenly exerted force with his hands.

The severe pain from his calves almost made Lu Yuan scream.

But soon the pain turned into waves of numbness spreading out.

The man's technique was gentle yet powerful, and every press accurately landed on the sore and swollen areas of Lu Yuan's body.

With Lu Yuan's experience as a "foot massage prince" in his previous life, the man could definitely be considered a highly skilled master.

Lu Yuan didn't know when he fell asleep.

When he woke up, he found light music flowing in his ears, and a thin air-conditioning blanket was covering his body.

As for the man who gave him the massage, he had long since disappeared.

"It's almost 8 o'clock?!"

Lu Yuan took out his phone from his backpack to check the time and found that nearly two hours had passed, his face suddenly changed.

He didn't even bother to take a shower, he got dressed and hurried downstairs.

"I thought you would sleep until tomorrow morning..."

As soon as he went downstairs, he saw Cheng Peng waiting for him in the hall, and he came up to ask him, "How do you feel?"

"I'll tell you later, I'm going home!"

"Okay, I'm starving."

The massage effect on the second floor of the martial arts center was beyond Lu Yuan's expectations.

Just the next day, the soreness in his body almost completely disappeared.

He was back to normal... no, he should be in better shape than before.

After all, muscles become stronger in the process of repeated tearing.

"Hoo——Hoo——"

Lu Yuan finished a set of basic boxing moves, with beads of sweat on his forehead, but his whole person seemed more energetic.

"Not bad!"

Lin Zhiqin looked at him with a hint of satisfaction and nodded, "Most of the movements are practiced well, but there are a few places that need improvement..."

After speaking, Lin Zhiqin corrected a few mistakes in Lu Yuan's boxing movements hand in hand, and then continued to shout in the direction of the students, "Next."

The main content of this class today is to test the students' consolidation of the content taught in the previous class.

Lu Yuan received praise from Lin Zhiqin as soon as he came up, which made many people look sideways.

"The handsome guy is awesome!"

The girl with the bun from the previous class changed to a ponytail for this class, and her makeup was even more delicate.

She deliberately greeted Lu Yuan loudly, and she wasn't angry when he ignored her. She giggled and said, "This handsome guy is quite cool."

"You're really amazing, you were the best among those who went up."

After Lu Yuan came down, the round-faced girl Liu Yue quickly approached him and spoke to him with admiration.

"I plan to use this as a specialty for the college entrance examination next year, so I worked a little harder."

Lu Yuan smiled at Liu Yue and said casually.

"I also signed up for martial arts because of the sports specialty in the college entrance examination. I heard that the college entrance examination has much lower requirements for fighting scores than badminton and other things.

But I feel like I don't have the talent in this area, no matter how hard I practice, I can't learn it..."

Liu Yue sighed and said.

"It's just the beginning, and girls don't have an advantage in this area..."

Lu Yuan comforted her casually, but his attention was on the attribute panel displayed in front of him.

[Name: Lu Yuan]

[Age: 17]

[Profession 1: Student lv3 (345/400)

Profession 2: Fighter lv1 (98/100)]

[Strength: 7]

[Agility: 8]

[Constitution: 7]

[Intelligence: 10]

[Profession 2 Basic Skills: Beginner Body Tempering lv2 (121/200)

Basic Boxing lv2 (23/200)]

Compared with a week ago, the [Fighter] occupation experience value has increased by a large amount.

Only two points away from reaching lv2.

The two basic skills have also been upgraded to lv2.

Especially Beginner Body Tempering, which is only about 40% away from lv3, shows how much Lu Yuan has been "grinding" on strength training this week.

It's just that he doesn't know why.

His four attributes have not changed at all.

"But I can feel that my strength has increased, and my body has become stronger.

Even my appetite has increased a lot..."

Lu Yuan couldn't understand this.

"Okay, next I will take everyone to consolidate the content of the last lesson again.

Do two sets of strength training, and then we will start teaching new content."

By this time, Lin Zhiqin had a good understanding of everyone's mastery of basic boxing, and began to announce the course content for today's class.

Following Lin Zhiqin through a set of basic boxing movements, the lv2 Basic Boxing gained a few more experience points.

This effect is much better than when Lu Yuan practiced shadow boxing alone at home, probably because someone taught him hand in hand.

Then there were two sets of strength training as a warm-up before class.

Just after finishing one set, Lu Yuan suddenly received a panel notification.

[Congratulations, your Strength attribute has been increased!]

[Congratulations, your Constitution attribute has been increased!]

Lu Yuan was startled and checked the attribute panel again. Sure enough...

His current four attributes became——

[Strength: 8]

[Agility: 8]

[Constitution: 8]

[Intelligence: 10]

Both Strength and Constitution increased by one point.

"Why did it suddenly increase? I didn't feel any particular change..."

Lu Yuan was a little stunned.

But he quickly figured out the key.

"It should be that after a week of training, my Strength and Constitution attributes have already reached the critical point of increase.

Both Strength and Constitution have improved, but it just didn't show on the panel.

Now it just happens to break through this critical point, so it shows an increase..."
