Chapter 12 The True Purpose of Zhao Wuji
"The training equipment is available, it just hasn't arrived yet."
Upon hearing this, Mu Bai smiled gently.
"I had a shop in Soto City that specializes in making training equipment for Soul Masters make several sets of weighted clothing for me. It will take some time to make them fit my body perfectly."
A look of "I knew it" flashed across Flander's eyes, and he shook his head inwardly.
Weight training? What's so new about that?
Shrek Academy was poor.
But he can afford a few sets of heavy equipment if he wants.
Previously, I just felt it was unnecessary!
He asked, his face expressionless.
"So, your training plan mainly consists of weight training?"
"This seems to be similar to the academy's arrangements."
"Of course not!"
Mu Bai shook his head, his silver double pupils looking at Flander with a knowing smile.
"Weightedness is just the most basic aid; one of the core elements of my training is..."
He changed the subject, his gaze falling on Zhao Wuji standing to the side.
"We still need Teacher Zhao's help."
"I?"
Zhao Wuji was stunned, pointed to his own nose, and looked completely bewildered.
Flander also looked at Zhao Wuji with a questioning look in his eyes.
Old Zhao, when did you start hooking up with this kid? And you've been keeping it from me?
Zhao Wuji felt uncomfortable under Flander's gaze and quickly waved his hand.
"Dean, don't look at me! I don't know anything!"
"Mu Bai, what nonsense are you spouting? How can I possibly help you?"
Seeing their reactions, Mu Bai chuckled.
"Teacher Zhao, don't rush, let me finish."
He looked at Flanders again, his expression turning serious.
"My training is mainly divided into three parts."
"Firstly, physical training to build a strong physique and solidify the foundation."
"Secondly, the in-depth development of martial spirits and spirit skills, exploring their potential."
"Thirdly, real combat experience, where true skill is revealed in the arena."
"However, the third method won't be performed daily. Today, I'll demonstrate the first two!"
"And regarding physical training."
Mu Bai continued.
"In my opinion, weighted clothing and weighted leg wraps are not actually the most efficient."
"They can only train specific areas, and are prone to causing hidden injuries due to improper posture."
"A truly efficient way to train every muscle, even every cell..."
He paused, then spoke slowly and deliberately.
"The training takes place in a gravity environment."
"gravity?"
Flanders frowned.
"That's right."
Mu Bai nodded.
"When moving or cultivating under gravity several times that of ordinary people, the body's bones, muscles, internal organs, and even soul power are forcibly mobilized and strengthened in order to resist the additional pressure."
"The effect is several times that of ordinary weight training, but it can save a lot of time, allowing you to devote more energy to other aspects such as soul skill training and tactical thinking."
He looked at Zhao Wuji, his eyes gleaming.
"I learned from Xiao Ao that Teacher Zhao's third soul skill is 'Gravity Enhancement'."
These amazing skills are simply the ultimate weapon for forging a strong physique!
I don't understand why, despite having such resources, the academy has never considered utilizing them.
Mu Bai then looked at Flander, his tone calm but tinged with a hint of confusion.
"Dean Flander, as far as I know, it is no secret that in those long-established powerful forces and families, the use of special soul skills, soul tools, or even natural environments to create gravity fields to assist the cultivation of core disciples is already an open secret."
"Shrek Academy, which takes it upon itself to cultivate monsters, has never even tried this method? Is it because they didn't know, or... they felt it was unnecessary?"
Flander's expression froze instantly.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found his throat was a little dry.
He looked at Zhao Wuji, who was also shocked and suddenly realized what was happening, but then his expression turned to annoyance.
Yeah! My gravity soul skill can be used like this?!
How could I not have thought of that?!
Li Yusong and Shao Xin also looked thoughtful, then glanced at Mu Bai with complicated expressions.
This young man not only possessed astonishing talent and strength, but his knowledge and thinking also completely exceeded their comprehension.
Flander's mind was in turmoil.
He wasn't from one of those top-tier powers. Zhao Wuji and Li Yusong also came from small families, had only one type of martial soul, and had never had a soul master with gravity-related soul skills by their side.
He had never heard of the concept of gravity-assisted training, let alone thought it could be used for students' daily training.
When Mu Bai pointed it out, he felt his face burning with embarrassment, as if a junior had pointed out his oversight, and he also felt the absurdity and helplessness of being blind to one's own shortcomings.
Shrek Academy isn't lacking in resources; rather, the teachers there have limited perspectives!
Oscar and Ma Hongjun, who were standing nearby, watched with their eyes shining.
Ma Hongjun, in particular, lowered his voice and said to Oscar, "Little Oscar, Brother Mu Bai is amazing! He actually managed to leave the teacher speechless! This is the first time I've ever seen anything like it!"
Oscar puffed out his chest with pride and whispered.
"That's right! Brother Mu Bai is not only amazing, but also a great person! He's smart and generous!"
His gratitude and admiration for Mu Bai deepened even further.
Mu Bai took in everyone's reactions, said nothing more, turned to Zhao Wuji, and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Teacher Zhao, I'll be troubling you with the next task."
"Please cast 'Gravity Boost' on me, starting with twice the gravity."
Zhao Wuji looked at Flander. Flander took a deep breath, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and nodded.
"good!"
Without further hesitation, Zhao Wuji walked to the center of the playground and gave a low shout.
"Martial Soul Possession!"
Brownish-yellow fur with gold streaks emerged, the body swelled, and the phantom of the Mighty Vajra Bear roared silently to the sky, as seven spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and three black—rose up.
The third purple spirit ring suddenly lit up.
"Third Soul Skill: Gravity Enhancement!"
An invisible force spread out from Zhao Wuji, but he controlled it precisely, only covering a few meters around Mu Bai.
Mu Bai's body sank slightly.
Double the gravity would be a burden for an ordinary person, but for his body, which had been reshaped from the source, it was incredibly easy.
Then, he had Zhao Wuji continue to increase the gravity until it approached the limit that his body could withstand during training.
He stretched his arms and legs, and after a few moments of adjustment, he began to move around on the playground.
His actions startled Flanders and the others once again.
It is neither running nor a common martial arts routine.
Mu Bai bent down, placed his hands on the ground, stretched his body into a straight line, and began to do push-ups.
Each one was precise and slow, going down with their chests almost touching the ground and coming up with their arms fully extended.
Under the influence of gravity, the muscle lines of his arms, chest, back, and core are clearly defined, exuding a sense of power.
After doing dozens of push-ups, he rolled over and lay down, then began to do sit-ups.
Then came a series of combinations of exercises that Flanders and his colleagues had never seen before, but could immediately recognize as precisely targeting different muscle groups, such as squats and burpees.
These movements are fluid and efficient, and with the aid of gravity, they consume far more energy and stimulate muscles than ordinary running.
Mu Bai didn't move quickly, but he was extremely steady, his breathing long and deep, clearly demonstrating a meticulous level of control over his body.
"These...these actions..."
Li Yusong couldn't help but whisper.
"It looks simple, but it engages all the major muscle groups in the body, making it extremely efficient!"
"This is by no means a haphazard act; it is a meticulously designed body-refining method!"
Flander and Zhao Wuji also noticed it.
They are not mediocre, and they can naturally see the training philosophy behind these movements—comprehensive, precise, and efficient.
This is by no means a rural trick; rather, it seems to be some kind of well-established and systematic physical training secret!
"The Star Luo royal family's foundation... is it really this deep?"
Flanders was deeply shocked.
He originally thought that the strength of the Star Luo Dai family lay in their martial spirit and combat talent, but he never expected that they also had such profound and unique methods in the basic physical training!
Little did he know that this was not the inheritance of the Star Luo royal family at all, but rather a creation by Mu Bai by combining his knowledge from his previous life with his ultimate understanding of his body in this life.
