Chapter 96: Great Master-level Pull-up (Fourth Update, Requesting First Subscription)
The floral curtains were gently fluttered by the wind, letting in a streak of exceptionally bright sunlight.
It shone on the young man's straight, handsome nose bridge and thick, dark eyebrows.
Suddenly, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and his eyelids snapped open, revealing a pair of glowing, piercing eyes.
"Awoo——"
Fang Cheng yawned and stretched lazily.
Then, flipping the blanket back, he sat straight up from the bed.
He tilted his head to glance at the alarm clock on the desk; it was already approaching 10 o'clock.
He couldn't help shaking his head; when one's mental state wasn't good, it was very easy to be drowsy.
Fortunately, his sleep quality had always been decent.
After having such a wonderful sleep, he looked like he had recovered quite a bit.
Fang Cheng quickly put on his clothes and pants, slipped into his slippers, and walked into the bathroom to relieve his urge to urinate.
Then he turned on the faucet, picked up a towel, wrung it out, and forcefully wiped his face.
Looking at the seemingly even brighter and more spirited eyes in the mirror, he couldn't help thinking of that mysterious mental space.
Last night, he chose not to open that door to establish contact with the guy who sent the postcard.
That was completely a wise move.
In his mentally weak state at the time, if he had encountered some dangerous changes, it probably would have spelled disaster.
There was no need to rush about this matter at all.
By studying the "Primal Mother Vowel", Fang Cheng had successfully awakened the "Omniscient Language" talent.
It was like holding a master key in his hand; he could visit the other party whenever he needed to in the future.
He had to admit that his initial decision to learn language skills showed quite a bit of foresight.
Language was not only a medium for people in life to communicate with one another, but the amount of information it could carry and transmit was also beyond imagination.
Even in the religious Domain, curses, blessings, Talismans, and true mantras could all be categorized under the language System.
If one wanted to unleash these abilities, the mental attribute was the foundation of foundations.
Through brief observation in the mysterious space, Fang Cheng also obtained some useful information.
Assuming those points of light represented a person with extraordinary power, and their brightness determined the level of their mental attribute—
Fang Cheng felt that his own attribute values were still too low.
33 points of spirit was indeed very high compared to ordinary people.
But compared to those guys who could emit light and manifest themselves in the mysterious space, he was probably at the most basic level.
Thinking of this, Fang Cheng summoned his panel and inspected the status of all the skills he currently mastered.

[Marksmanship lv1 (30/250)]
The four language-related skills had already synthesized a new talent, freeing up new skill slot positions.
The Boxing, Sanda, and Muay Thai skills, which originally had slightly slower progress, saw a massive increase in experience after a group combat battle.
As for shooting and killing those two armed thugs in actual combat, the experience gained was several times that of shooting practice.
Overall, his overall strength was steadily rising.
Among them, several skills such as Focus, Speed Reading, Pull-up, Back Bridge, Leg Raise, and Jiu-Jitsu were not far from leveling up.
Seeing the progress of his fitness skills, Fang Cheng suddenly remembered that he hadn't done his morning exercise today.
A slight sense of guilt couldn't help arising in his heart.
Come to think of it, if his mind was fatigued, it would likewise affect the performance of his physical state.
"Forget it, let's exercise a bit to make up for my sin."
After washing up, Fang Cheng loosened up his limbs and immediately began physical training.
First, he did 800 single-leg Squats and 600 one-armed fist Push-ups.
Then he completed 300 Back Bridge stand-ups and 150 Handstand Push-ups.
Then he walked to the bedroom door, leaped lightly, and pinched the narrow edge of the doorframe with his five fingers.
He practiced one-armed Pull-ups in this manner, preparing to complete the Breakthrough in one go.
"..."
"117."
"118."
"119."
Fang Cheng's posture was relaxed and stretched, his back muscles bulged like hills, and his biceps were exceptionally firm and powerful.
Just like an adventurer climbing a steep rock face.
Flawless in every single detail!
After uttering "120", he let go, landed on the ground, and let out a light breath.
The experience needed for the Pull-up to level up wasn't much, and by simply doing a few more, he easily completed the Breakthrough.
[Congratulations, through unremitting efforts, your skill has reached the Great Master level]
[Pull-up lv2 (0/500)]
[Obtained skill enhancement reward, 10 points of strength attribute]
Looking at the attribute point reward gained from leveling up, Fang Cheng turned his gaze to the updated character panel.
[Strength: 32]
[Agility: 21]
[Physique: 30]
[Spirit: 33]
For an ordinary person, this set of body attributes could definitely be called a "monster" level.
Feeling the fulfilling sense of strength in his arm muscles, Fang Cheng immediately walked to the kitchen.
He chose to hook his finger into the safety guard of a gas cylinder, using the steel tank with half a bottle of Qi left as a dumbbell to practice.
After practicing a few times, he shook his head:
"Too light."
Then, he switched to his pinky finger to continue practicing, and it still seemed very lightweight.
It seemed that if he wanted to fully unleash the power of this body, he had to find a suitable opponent.
While pondering, his stomach was growling loudly.
Fang Cheng slapped his forehead; sleeping in late was one thing, but he could even forget to eat.
That was even more of a grave sin!
He immediately turned around, opened the refrigerator, took out meat and vegetables, placed them on the stove, and wildly chopped them up with loud clangs.
Soon, he made a pot of richly-ingrediented mixed fried rice.
Then, with two bottles of milk, he downed five bowls of rice in a row, but he was still somewhat hungry.
After all, he was treating breakfast as lunch, eating two meals together.
Seeing that the remaining vegetables in the fridge weren't much anymore,
Fang Cheng simply chose to go to the small restaurant downstairs to eat another meal.
Today he wasn't planning to go to the club for work.
Ever since his duel with Zheng Haokang, he hadn't had a proper rest in a long time.
Besides, a lot of things happened yesterday, so he needed to calm his mind a bit.
Fang Cheng strolled down the street, planning to go to the supermarket later to purchase supplies.
Inadvertently, he caught sight of a familiar woman's figure.
Wen Huiyi was standing in front of a restaurant, seemingly wanting to apply for a waitress position.
However, the proprietress repeatedly waved her hands to refuse.
Judging by that disgusted look on her face, she must have heard some bad rumors.
Seeing this, Fang Cheng narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment.
Then he walked toward the woman, whose face showed disappointment as she turned to leave.
"Sister Wen."
Hearing the call, Wen Huiyi turned her head back in surprise.
Seeing that Fang Cheng took the initiative to greet her, she instantly looked somewhat flattered and hurriedly squeezed out a smile.
"Mr. Fang."
Fang Cheng didn't beat around the bush and said directly:
"If you want to find a job and don't mind it being too tiring, you can come with me to try out at that Bone-setting clinic ahead."
Hearing this, Wen Huiyi nodded hurriedly and said:
"As long as the boss is willing to hire me, I can do anything!"
Fang Cheng smiled and nodded.
Although he didn't know whether she could persist,
since she was willing to take this step, it was worth giving her a helping hand.
