Chapter 65: 065 Devil Training

Of course, both bone density and strength can be improved through acquired training.

Ji You’s current bone density is at 70%, and bone strength is at 50%. Both can reach saturation and completion through persistent training. Only when these two aspects are complete can Ji You’s bone strength be considered to have truly reached the peak of an E-level.

Think that once bone strength training is complete, everything is all set?

Of course not.

If you only have bones without flesh, the ’high-rise building’ that is the human body can only be considered an empty frame. Therefore, it needs ’steel’, ’cement’, ’gravel’... and so on to fill it, to be called a complete high-rise building.

Therefore—

Second item: Blood vessel strength.

The strength of the blood vessels can be further divided into two subcategories:

Flesh: Refers to all parts of the human body composed of flesh, other than the bones.

Meridians: The network through which all blood vessels in the body flow.

After testing, Ji You’s values in these two areas were far from ideal, with flesh strength at 50% and meridian strength even worse, at only 30%.

What does this indicate? It shows that her flesh and meridian strengths are particularly poor and especially fragile. Take any ordinary metal weapon, like a kitchen knife, and a casual swipe at her body would immediately slice open a huge gash!

...

What Ji You needs to do now is to train these two fundamental aspects: bone strength and blood vessel strength.

Previously, her Physical Strength had always been E-level, but this only indicated that her body had the capacity for E-level Physical Strength; yet it wasn’t filled. Only once it’s fully saturated, to the point of overflowing, is her Physical Strength considered to have reached the E-level Peak.

Only after reaching the E-level Peak, does one possess the strength to break through to the C-level.

Without reaching the peak value, it’s impossible to break through to the next level.

...

Using the training room for the first time, Ji You didn’t dare to be too bold. She followed the training room’s guidelines step by step, and yet after just one hour, she was crawling out of the training room on all fours.

Merely an hour of training, and Ji You felt like she had become a soaked sponge, arms and legs, head, neck... every organ seemed too heavy to even lift.

During her rest time, Ji You did not waste a moment, hugging Sister Liya’s notebook and observing carefully.

When Ji You saw the following entry in Sister Liya’s diary:

[First training session, muscles so sore it was unbearable, didn’t even have the strength to eat nutrient solution, and too ashamed to ask my roommate to feed me. No choice but to find a long straw, diluted the nutrient solution into water, lying in bed while sipping and reflecting on life:

How many days can I endure this darned training? I bet I can only last 3 days.]

After 3 days.

[Having eaten straw-fed nutrient solution for 3 days, it tasted quite good, but there’s one question that keeps bugging me: how am I still alive? — Haha, it must be because I’m too beautiful.]

...

Ji You: "..."

Unexpectedly, the gentle-looking Sister Liya had such a playful heart.

And—

Quite self-admiring too.

Ji You couldn’t help but laugh, thinking about how she always followed Sister Liya around, sugarcoating her words and praising her beauty to the skies, yet Sister Liya always remained cool and indifferent. Who would have thought she’s so vain inside.

Humph—

Maybe she was secretly delighted inside when I complimented her.

With this humorous distraction, Ji You recovered a bit and continued to enter the training room for more workouts. Physical Strength training is a long-term battle of perseverance; the longer one endures, the more apparent the effects.

Ji You crawled into the training room.

Then.

She crawled out of the training room.

...

After several cycles, she felt drained to the point of exhaustion, not daring to push herself further. Barely making it out of the training room, her hands trembling, feet shaky, and cheeks quivering constantly...

In such a state? Truly not having any strength left even to eat nutrient solution.

...

After resting for half an hour, Ji You finally managed to crawl up again, using all four limbs, she struggled painfully over to the storage cabinet. The moment she opened the drawer, her gaze sharpened slightly:

It’s over!

The nutrient solution has run out.

Ji You’s complexion instantly turned half a shade darker!

No choice, she trembled all over, logged onto Star Network, and bought 20 vials of nutrient solution from a nearby store. After purchasing, she checked her credit points balance:

[Account Balance: 1,098,504 points.]

Life, sigh—

It really makes your hair fall out!

Now, I don’t even have a 1.2 million balance, just under 1.1 million.

After paying the sponsorship fee, Ji You estimated that her school fees, living expenses, and various miscellaneous fees at the academy would definitely not be enough.

What to do?

For a moment, Ji You’s mind flashed back to Ah Da’s 100 million on his head. She shook her head hard, suppressing her wicked thoughts of slaughtering a fat sheep...

Since she bought the nutrient solution from a nearby store, the delivery was quick. The robot courier knocked on the door for a long time, but no one came out to receive the package. The robot then deduced that the customer was not at home and was about to leave when the door was pushed open from the inside.

Robot courier: "Customer, your package. Please receive it."

Ji You crawling on the ground: "Sir, could you please squat down? You’re standing too tall, I can’t reach."

Robot courier: "???"

This scene was beyond the understanding of the robot courier’s programming. It tried to analyze Ji You’s behavior but only got a string of nonsense codes and, in the end, it stopped insisting and chalked it up to the customer’s particular preferences.

Some people like spiders.

Some people like ants.

And some people like birds...

Human preferences are always bizarre, it’s not strange for some to enjoy crawling.

The courier bent down, making eye level with Ji You, and handed her the package to sign for.

Ji You raised her hand and casually drew a line, and the sign-off was successful.

"Customer... Here’s a friendly tip: The environment and soil of Planet 101 are not suitable for crawling, please take care of your body." This delivery robot wasn’t just an inflexible domestic bot; it had some intelligence, roughly that of a 5-year-old human child. Out of humanitarian consideration, it said the above.

"..." Speechless for a moment, Ji You could only manage an awkward but polite smile.

After expressing his concern, the courier said politely: "Customer, enjoy your meal. Don’t forget to give our store a five-star rating."

Ji You: "....You take care."

Alone with her thoughts, Ji You was embarrassed for a good while before sighing, "With my ghastly appearance, I can even scare a robot."

Next.

With her arms weak, Ji You tried the method from Sister Liya’s book, diluted the nutrient solution with water, and used a long straw to eat her lunch.

Then—

Her face turned dark.

What kind of dark cuisine is this?

The nutrient solution was already hard to swallow, and after diluting it with water, the taste became a hundred, no, a thousand times worse. The nutrient solution was originally concentrated, and once it was diluted, it expanded several times.

How—

To finish eating it?

Ji You swallowed it while pinching her nose, only managed to eat half before she couldn’t bear it anymore and threw away the straw.

Ahhhh—

How indescribably disgusting!

Ji You flipped out Sister Liya’s notes again, wanting to see what she thought of such dark cuisine, only to discover after a whole night that Liya mentioned in a teasing tone that this was a prank by the senior students of Lanyue Star Military Academy, specifically to fool the new students who knew nothing. It’s a tradition! It’s a legacy, too, and Liya also wrote that she was one of those who had been pranked.

In the end—

Liya wrote in small print, asking: [You, did you try it? How’s the taste? Is it unforgettable for life?]

Ji You: "...."
