Let’s make some new gym equipment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Materials detected in storage: Titan Ores, Beast Materials, Spirit Woods,...]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[New Feature Unlocked: God Gym’s Divine Equipment Creation]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion whistled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Divine Equipment? That sounds really good. let’s see how good they are.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another screen appeared and beside it, a glowing pen appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s jaw quickly dropped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait... I can draw? You’re telling me I only need to sketch and it comes to life? This is way better than I expected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed the pen, spinning it between his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This means I can even make my own weird equipment that this world or my world has never seen. Oh, I’m gonna have so much fun with this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cracked his knuckles and started to sketch in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glowing lines floated where he drew, smoothing themselves into a neat shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First things first, let’s make the foundation of every gym, a squat rack.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew two vertical beams, a crossbar, and hooks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His first few strokes wobbled, but the system auto-corrected them into sleek steel pillars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The outline suddenly shimmered, turning into a glowing 3D model right before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nearly dropped his pen in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait... you can make it 3D? Why didn’t you say that earlier?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Tips: 3D drafting available for smoother design]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion rolled his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks for telling me after I started, you stingy system.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, his grin widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He zoomed in on the hologram with his fingers, adjusting the hooks and bar placements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looking good. Solid frame and clean hook. This will surely hold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Satisfied, he cracked his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, let’s make the rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed the glowing bar from the rack design, copied it, and stretched it out a little longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There. This will be the barbell stick.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system smoothed the skay line into a sleek, straight bar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded and then copied teh design again and shortened it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dumbbell handle is also done.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two stubby bars floated beside the long one. Garion rubbed his hands together, grinning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, for the weights.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew a simple circle, then a hole in the middle. The outline flickered, then solidified into a smooth black disc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly duplicated it into multiple discs and resized them into multiple sizes until a stack appeared before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out and pretended to stack them onto the bar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hologram responded, snapping them into place with a click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system automatically adjusted the size and balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perfect, Adjustable weights, just like the ones on my world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, he sketched a rack with two slanted stands on tiers to hold dumbbells and another frame for the barbells and plates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glowing blue lines locked together like puzzle pieces, turning them into neat, sturdy storage stands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the whole set appeared, Garion put his hands on his hips, admiring his work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good... really good.

Oh, that’s perfect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed at the floating screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Make them from Titan Ore, all of them. I want all of them to be heavy and indestructible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system hummed as the glowing designs flared brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, the holograms solidified, turning into real equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The squat rack gleamed like polished steel, the barbells and dumbbells shimmered faintly, and the plates stacked neatly in the weight rack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion walked up to the barbell, tapped it with his knuckles, and grinned, hearing the sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perfect. It is stronger than steel, heavier than stone, and prettier than any gym equipment in my world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crouched down, grabbed a pari of plates from the rack, and turned them in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. The system even put the weights in kilograms. Nice and professional.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He chuckled and raised one up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fifty kilos, huh? But look at this small size. People will never believe it’s fifty. They’ll think it’s just at most ten.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head, he laughed and slid both 50kg plates on the bar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, let’s test this bad boy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ducked under the bar, resting it across his shoulders, then straightened his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a deep breath, he lowered himself into a squat. His tightness burned intensely, but the rack held steady. He exhaled and pushed back up smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Really good. I can feel the durability. No wobble, no slip, and perfect grip too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rapped his fingers against teh knurled surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thankfully, I added those rough patches for grip. Smart detail, if I do say so myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion finished his set with a steady rhythm. His breathing was loud but controlled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he racked the bar back in place, he stepped out with a grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, that’s what’s called a perfect and proper workout.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flexed his arms, rolling his shoulders, feeling the mana inside him stir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed... this cultivation method is even better when paired with exercise. The more I train, the thirstier my body becomes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Every rep makes the absorption from the air even faster than before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clenched his fist and smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perfect harmony between mana and sweat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes went back to the weight rack, licking his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s not stop here. Morning’s still far away. Bicep curls, barbell rows, deadlifts... Tonight, the God Gym truly opens for me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed the barbell, this time stripping off the big plates and swapping in lighter ones for curls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a quick motion, he raised it and pulled it toward his chest. His arms bulged, and veins stood out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A very smooth motion and solid bar. Exactly how I wanted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweat rolled down his forehead, but his grin didn’t fade. He set the bar down, grabbed the dumbbells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly tested a few hammer curls with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excellent balance. Doesn’t even roll out of the grip.
