I’ll need to make some Divine Supplements. Can’t have them collapsing halfway through training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened the system’s[Divine Supplement Creation]list, scrolling through the available formulas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rows of glowing names appeared before him, and then two names caught his attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Demonic Creatine]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Effect: Rapidly boosts muscle power, explosive strength, and short-term endurance. Enhances mana absorption during intense training and increases the body’s mana–muscle connection.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Side Effect: Causes overheating, glowing red veins, and bursts of extreme focus or aggression. Overuse leads to dehydration and mana strain.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Demonic Protein]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Effect: Greatly accelerates muscle repair and recovery after training. Promotes stable mana circulation in damaged cells and enhances muscle growth efficiency.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Side Effect: Causes extreme drowsiness and a heavy appetite after consumption. May temporarily make the body emit faint demonic energy or a smoke-like aura.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These two look perfect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The effects were strong, effective, and exactly what he needed for large-scale physical training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He checked the ingredient list and nodded in approval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them came directly from Demon Gate Island, making it easy for him to produce them on a regular basis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Most of the ingredients were readily available. With this, my disciples can consume them every day.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He read the side effects again, shrugging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Overheating, hunger, glowing veins... nothing they can’t handle. Better than exploding, at least.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a faint smile, he stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then. These two will become the new standard supplement. Every disciple gets one of each before training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stretched, feeling satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s see how my little disciples handle Demonic Creatine and Demonic Protein.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, all the disciples had gathered inside the training hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of them whispered quietly, unsure if they were inside the sect or some kind of mysterious metal temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stood at the front, and Dahlia stood beside him, already grinning like she’d been waiting for this moment her whole life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, listen up! Today will be your first day of training. Forget all those flashy mana techniques and mana cultivation arts. We start from the basics.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The outer disciples looked at each other, confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion turned to Dahlia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Train them all first. Introduce every type of exercise we do here. Just one set of each. Once they understand how to train properly, we’ll move on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s grin widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood, Master. I’ve been waiting for this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And remember. Until they master basic form, don’t let them cultivate mana.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia nodded, cracking her knuckles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Garion stepped back, Dahlia clapped her hands loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, everyone! Split into ten lines! We’re starting with push-ups, squats, sit-ups, planks, and pull-ups!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their confused looks, Dahlia reassured them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry if you don’t know what I’m talking about. I’ll show you how it’s done.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciple watched in awe as she dropped to the floor and performed each movement flawlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do it like this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples began to imitate her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some moved awkwardly, others fell flat halfway through, and Dahlia quickly became a drill instructor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lower! Straigher! Don’t cheat!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, a new notification soon flashed in front of Garion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Outer Disciple Rynar completed one rep of a perfect push-up. Owner gains two times the results.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion rubbed his chin thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So outer disciples only give me two times the gain, huh? Quite low compared to the ten times from private disciples...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, a faint smile crossed his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But with a hundred of them training nonstop, that’s still a lot of progress.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion also didn’t forget about the two supplements that he had made.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s wait for them to perfect their form before giving them the supplements. No point wasting the supplements on bad forms.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion then went to a nearby rack, picking up some dumbbells to do his own exercise while watching Dahlia whip the new disciples into shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia, on the other hand, was in drill instructor mode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lower! I said lower! That’s not a squat, that’s just bending your knees!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One disciple collapsed halfway through his push-ups, panting heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stood over him, hands on her hips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s wrong? Is the floor too comfortable for you? Want to take a nap?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciple frowned, getting up quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"N-No, Senior Sister!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s low voice was then changed to sharp and loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then get back up and give me ten!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciple immediately resumed, trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion chuckled between sets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh. She’s got a good rhythm. Didn’t even need my help to teach them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced back toward the rows of struggling disciples and smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s see how far they can go before lunch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Dahlia’s voice roared again from the other side of the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten more push-ups! And if I see someone resting, I’ll make you start over!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yep. Definitely doesn’t need my help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By lunch time, the training hall was filled with the sound of groaning disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some lay flat on the floor, others leaned against the wall, gasping for air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their arms and legs trembled like jelly after hours of nonstop push-ups, squats, planks, and sit-ups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia clapped her hands once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, that’s enough for now! Lunch break!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples didn’t even cheer. They just collapsed further, too tired to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One disciple mumbled weakly, \"Lunch break? I can’t even lift my spoon...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another groaned, \"Is it too late to join another sect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone beside him replied, \"I think we already sold our souls the moment we entered the God Gym.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia smirked, placing her hands on her hips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, come on, it wasn’t that bad. This was just warm-up training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That line made several of them stare at her in pure horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-warm-up? This was just a warm-up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia nodded casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yep. The real training starts after this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the entire group collectively realized they might have made the worst decision of their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion, sitting by the table in the corner, sipped his water calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome to the real God Gym. You’ll get used to the pain eventually.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one found that comforting.\u003C\u002Fp>",1023,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.542Z",1,"novelbin.me","e49a0d980bd5c84bac8d687d7fba31c297a60d8bb3986e35cc168a3b90ebb51c","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-423","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-422",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
