What the hell are we learning here? Why do we need to learn the body?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I came here to get stronger. Not to become some scholar. And definitely not a doctor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira nodded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I agree. Cutting apart a corpse... it feels wrong. Isn’t this something a demonic sect would do? Aren’t we supposed to be a righteous sect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia smirked, waving her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First of all, we’re not a demonic sect. But we’re also not a righteous one. Just think of the God Gym as... neutral. We do whatever works.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tapped the corpse on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Second, this guy was a bandit. A terrible one. So don’t pity him. He’s more helpful now than when he was alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor made a face. \"That’s... a weird way to put it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And third, this lesson is important. You’re body cultivators now. If you don’t understand the human body, how can you call yourself a body cultivator?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed at Valtor directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know your Vulkran Clan is also a body cultivation clan. But the God Gym is different. That’s why it shot up to the top sect level in such a short time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor frowned. \"Different how?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden’s voice grew firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ll understand soon. For now, shut up and learn. If our training doesn’t change your strength at all, THEN you can complain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor blinked. \"...Did you just tell me to shut up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia giggled. \"Yep. Arden entered his ’serious mode.’ It doesn’t happen often, so enjoy it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden cleared his throat, embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira crossed her arms. \"Fine. If this is necessary for strength, I’ll learn it. But it still feels strange.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia nodded. \"It felt strange to me too at first. You’ll get used to it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha, who had been silent the whole time, tilted her head as she inspected the corpse. Her fingers brushed the cloth lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is... a bit different from the ones I used in my family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them turned to her at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden blinked. \"Wait. The ones you used? What do you mean?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor raised a brow. \"Your family used corpses?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira’s cold expression cracked slightly. \"What kind of family are you from?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha smiled softly, adjusting her glasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My family deals with poison. So... we experiment on corpses. Sometimes on living humans too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor choked on his own spit. \"WHAT!? Living?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira’s eyes widened. \"Is your family... a demonic one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha blinked at her innocently. \"Hm? I don’t think so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden stared at Dahlia, pale. \"Senior Sister... what kind of junior did Master give us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia waved her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax, relax! No matter where she’s from, she’s a God Gym disciple now. That means she’s part of our family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor let out a long breath. \"A very... dangerous family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira nodded. \"But still a family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha looked between them, her smile turning small. \"Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden softened a little. \"Um... yes. Welcome, Junior Sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia clapped her hands once. \"Good! Now that we’re all on the same page, let’s look at this cadaver.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pulled the sheet back, revealing the bandit’s body. The juniors tensed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia pointed at the chest. \"See this? Master treated the body so the muscles and organs are easier to study.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha leaned closer. \"Ah... that explains it. It’s cleaner. And it doesn’t smell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor pinched his nose anyway. \"Still feels weird...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira crouched beside the table, eyes sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I see what Senior Sister means. The lines are... too perfect. This was prepared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden nodded. \"Master prepares everything himself. He wants us to learn fast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha touched her chin thoughtfully. \"I wonder what I can learn here...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia smiled as she handed each of them a small scalpel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright. Plenty to learn today! We’ll start with something simple, naming all the organs and what they do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor looked at the scalpel like it might bite him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, wait... simple? Organs? I thought we were going to learn muscles or something cool first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira crossed her arms tightly, brows narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I only know basic anatomy. Heart, lungs, whatever. Nothing more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha raised her hand slightly. \"I know some parts... but only the ones related to killing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tapped her chin. \"Like the spot that stops breathing. And the one that makes someone faint.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor slowly turned toward her. \"...How old are you again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha smiled. \"Twelve.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor’s eye twitched. \"Twelve. Right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia clapped once. \"Good! So all three of you are basically beginners. That makes this easier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden stepped beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Um... yes. Master says body cultivators must understand everything inside the body. From bones to muscles to how blood moves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor frowned. \"Blood moves? I thought it just... stayed in there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden stared at him for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Junior Brother, please don’t say that outside. You’ll embarrass the entire dorm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia held back a laugh. \"Alright, enough talking. Let’s start.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pulled back the sheet covering the cadaver again. The pale chest was exposed. The three juniors tensed at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira stepped closer first. \"What organ are we starting with?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia pointed at the center of the chest. \"The heart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor leaned over, squinting hard. \"That little thing? That’s the heart? It looks smaller than I imagined.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden shook his head. \"It’s normal size. Your clans just make everything dramatic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira nodded. \"I expected it to be... bigger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia chuckled. \"The heart doesn’t need to be big. It just needs to pump fast and strong, like Master says, ’a good engine’.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tapped it gently. \"This pushes blood everywhere in your body. Without it, you drop dead. Simple.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor raised his hand. \"So... if someone punches the heart, does it explode?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden’s face went pale. \"No! Don’t do that. That’s not how it works.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia sighed. \"Junior Brother Valtor... please don’t ask things that sound like Rynor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor huffed. \"I was just curious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seira tilted her head. \"What happens if someone freezes the heart?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mersha added softly, \"Or if poison enters it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden held his forehead. \"Why are all your questions violent...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia waved a hand. \"Anyway, let’s continue.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1077,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.542Z",1,"novelbin.me","c579ce5b6630c24aa7819751ce11a892cbeb7d2a1e21cb1f6bedba14276ee2c3","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-233","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-231",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
