Chapter 48: Slight Fullness Sensation, King of Steroids
Borrowing small loans to get injections and take medicine?
These big guys really want muscles but not their lives!
Qin Shi was secretly alarmed; his previous activities at Yinma Gym were limited to the front desk and the lounge.
He had never been to the Equipment Area, nor had he contacted the Gold Medal Coaches who taught classes during work hours, and did not know their teaching methods.
Silently activating Inner Vision State, Qin Shi's spirit was highly condensed, while he sensed several segments of breath fluctuations.
They were roughly similar, sounding rough and powerful, like a wild beast roaring.
Actually like sliced sausage segments, with no coherence at all.
This showed these muscle men had very poor physical strength and endurance, high load for high-intensity exercise, impressive but useless.
Qin Shi very much doubted that if they were made to participate in a five-kilometer long-distance run together, half of them might burst their blood vessels.
The only thing worth celebrating was that compared to these people's precarious physical condition, Zhou Ning could be called Abundant Vitality, except for his Pointed Head, he had no other problems at all.
Truly worthy of Coach Luo's evaluation of "exceptional talent."
"Does the life force gained from injections and medicine count?"
Doubt arose in Qin Shi's heart; in his view, some burly men doing the three major items in the Equipment Area had obvious bodily brightness, but murky and uneven colors, like jade ware full of cracks, seeming to shatter at a touch.
"Old Qin, wait here, I'll go talk to Coach Luo."
Zhou Ning looked at his very burly fat-wrapped muscle physique; in the gym he instantly seemed small, completely unable to compare with other trainees' excessively large muscles.
"The fake medicine your friend bought?"
Lin Yunqing, who looked lightly made up but was actually carefully dressed, lightly frowned.
"Yinma Gym is quite famous in the Urban Circle; I've heard of it a few times. I didn't expect they would tacitly allow coaches to sell medicine privately."
Qin Shi came over and asked in a low voice:
"Teacher Lin, reporting this kind of fake medicine dealer gang, how much prize money can one generally get?"
When Qin Shi approached, Lin Yunqing's nose tip twitched slightly, as if smelling the fresh scent of new rain on an empty mountain.
She inhaled like a little beast; Assistant Teacher Qin, how long since you broke the limit?
Why are you still in the New Life Stage?
Speaking of which, this kind of clarity and cleanness after the Secret Medicine tempers the flesh actually has a bit of "man-slaying" charm!
Truly smells so good!
"Teacher Lin, I'm talking to you……"
Qin Shi glanced at Lin Yunqing, who was staring blankly in a daze, saw her cheeks slightly redden, and slandered in his heart:
"Your face is red like a Bubble Teapot!"
He always felt dog women were not reliable, completely lacking the steady and secure sense of security like Old Liang.
"The prize money isn't much. For now, it seems like a minor conflict, not constituting a very serious nature."
Lin Yunqing coughed lightly twice, covering up her embarrassment.
She usually experienced ten thousand flowers without a single leaf sticking to her body, but didn't expect to easily fall at Assistant Teacher Qin's hands.
Silently changing the note in her heart from "Old Martial Genius" to "Old Martial Succubus."
"Wanting your friend to get out completely is actually simple. These fake medicine sellers dare not be too overbearing, afraid of making a big scene; they are all strong outside but weak inside."
Recalling what the High Charm Cultivation Guide said, Lin Yunqing quickly straightened up, eager to shape a perfect image of herself as knowledgeable and capable:
"Assistant Teacher Qin, later watch my expression and act accordingly; we can pretend to sign up, experience the package, get the injection potion as evidence, then I'll call people, have friends from the Inspection Department come over."
Yinma Gym is a large chain that ranks high in the Urban Circle, paying more attention to public opinion, and will surely settle the matter quietly."
Qin Shi pondered for a moment, feeling Lin Yunqing's plan was excellent.
He just didn't want his sworn brother Zhou Ning to both waste money and harm his body.
If Coach Luo could refund the full cost of signing up, buying medicine, and getting injections, then he himself had no need to press step by step and step on him hard.
One more thing is not as good as one less thing!
While the two were chatting, Zhou Ning ran over happily:
"Old Qin, Coach Luo nodded; there's only one spot left in this term's trainee class."
Seeing as you're my friend, Coach Luo agreed to save a spot for you."
He again looked at Lin Yunqing with an apologetic expression, scratching his head and said:
"Sorry, Teacher Lin; Coach Luo doesn't take female trainees, so you came for nothing."
Qin Shi's mouth corner twitched, thinking:
"Little Zhou is truly righteous! This kind of try-it-and-die good thing, next time please don't think of me again."
He said to Lin Yunqing:
"Teacher Lin, you go rest in the lounge for a while first; we'll talk after we experience the package."
Lin Yunqing made an OK hand gesture, indicating she instantly understood the profound meaning in Qin Shi's words.
Just waiting for Assistant Teacher Qin to smash the cup as a signal, she would call eight hundred blade hands to wipe out this gang of fake medicine dealers!
……
……
"Old Qin, at the critical moment, I give you the spot, not tempted by beauty! Aren't you moved?"
Zhou Ning slapped his developed pectoral muscles that shook as he walked:
"Later when you see Coach Luo, perform well; this person cares more about trainees' talent."
If the talent is not good, he's unwilling to accept, afraid the accepted disciples will be of mixed quality and ruin the reputation of his 'Luo Family Gate'."
Luo Family Gate?
The stall is spread quite large.
Qin Shi stepped into the equipment area, looking at those mighty strongmen who could bench press 290 kilograms and deadlift 387 kilograms at every turn, their blood vessels bulging on the surface of their skin as if about to burst.
"Quite a few don't look like normal humans anymore, approaching the 'beastmen' that often appear in Old Era online readings."
Dan Ruo one ignores the visible body shape and judges only by breath, these big blocks of men are no different from semi-beastmen who have drunk devil's blood.
This kind of muscle propped up by injecting drugs only possesses extremely short explosive power; besides satisfying some people's deformed aesthetics, it has no value at all.
Compared to the New Martial Arts path's comprehensive, systematic improvement from nutrition structure to muscle group training, it is completely incomparable.
"A bankrupt degraded version of the New Martial Arts path."
Qin Shi gave his evaluation.
Following Zhou Ning through the equipment area, they went up the metal staircase to the second floor, which was the private VIP chamber enjoyed by VIP clients.
Luo Hui, as a Gold Medal Coach, sat in the wide sofa, like a giant muscle mountain, possessing great visual impact.
Zhou Ning introduced enthusiastically on his own initiative:
"Coach, this is Qin Shi, my good buddy."
Luo Hui nodded, his tone indifferent:
"I have an impression, didn't you work at the gym front desk before? Several of the female trainees I coach often mention you."
Immediately after, this Gold Medal Coach who topped the monthly performance charts and sat firmly as Yinma's sales champion, sized up Qin Shi with a scrutinizing gaze:
"Physique is passable, barely passing, has some training traces, but not many. Pity you're too thin and fine dog, should build more muscle, increase your circumference, become like us, a man among men!"
Qin Shi put on an obedient appearance of humbly accepting:
"Coach Luo is right. Lao Zhou told me, the various training packages and training items Coach Luo you developed have great effects! I want to try that 'Nine Dragons Fusion'."
Luo Hui frowned, feeling Qin Shi was someone who didn't know the heights of heaven and depths of earth, and sneered:
"You fine dogs all have hearts higher than heaven, overestimating your capabilities. Little Zhou has good talent, that's why he could train it out in a short time.
Your talent, to speak the truth, is very ordinary, waist too thin, legs not thick enough, pecs not developed either. Let alone Nine Dragons Fusion, even if you were given an injection of Sisilong, you couldn't take it."
Qin Shi fell silent, the Old Martial Talent praised by Lao Liang as having qualifications as monstrous as He Lanchan, placed in Yinma Gym, had actually become a fine dog with no talent.
He began to suspect, was this gym some super sect on par with the Four Great National Universities, and Coach Luo, a Martial Artist who had broken through the hundred point threshold of life force.
"As expected, guys with pointy heads are troublesome to communicate with."
Qin Shi managed his expression, speaking very sincerely:
"Coach Luo, please let me try."
Luo Hui licked his lips, thinking of how this month's performance was still lacking quite a bit:
"Alright then, after all you're Little Zhou's friend. A Qiang, go to my locker room, get two vials of medicine, give him an injection to try."
If it works, accept him as a trainee, push sales of medicine;
If it doesn't, send him to the private hospital the boss runs for treatment, eat a kickback.
Not long after, a tall fierce man named A Qiang walked over carrying a case.
Opening it, inside lay two vials of thick green potion quietly.
"One injection! Our Luo Family Gate judges talent qualification at just one point, drug resistance!"
A Qiang said in a coarse voice:
"Little Zhou is the trainee with the best aptitude among this batch Coach Luo coaches! Hope you're not too bad!"
Qin Shi looked at the unknown potion suspected to be devil's blood, wondering whether to grab it and run, or delay and wait for Lin Yunqing to break in and catch them red-handed.
Before he could make a decision, the Stele Panel suddenly flashed, lines of text information sweeping across his retina.
