You’re finally telling me how to reach it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed. But before that, I need to ask you something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are your mana pool cells already full? All of them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia frowned, thinking for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not yet. Around seventy percent, I think.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tilted her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But thanks to the Demonic Creatine, the process has sped up a lot. They should be full by the end of the week.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Then when you’ve reached full capacity, I’ll tell you exactly what to do next.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia nodded. \"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion reached into his system storage and took out a single black bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now drink this too,\" he said, handing it to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s eyebrow twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master... do I really have to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn’t you say earlier that the demonic supplements help you? Don’t hesitate now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia sighed, accepting the bottle and began to sniff the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It doesn’t smell like anything...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a small sip, and then her face twisted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh! It’s bitter! So bitter!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spicy creatine, bitter protein... They are unique, aren’t they?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia glared at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unique, my foot. You’re crazy, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion only smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ll thank me when you wake up stronger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia sighed again, rubbing her stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I doubt I’ll even wake up after this taste...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyelids began to droop. The supplements’ drowsy effect kicked in quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master... if I dream about bitter soup, I’ll haunt you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion chuckled softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rest well, Dahlia. Tomorrow’s another step forward.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within seconds, Dahlia had fallen asleep, still frowning slightly from the taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion looked at her for a moment before leaving the room, thinking about the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Dahlia woke up early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes were half open, her hair a mess, and her face still frowning from the memory of last night’s drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rubbed her mouth and groaned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh... even sleep couldn’t wash that taste away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tongue still felt coated with that bitter aftertaste from the Demonic Protein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then suddenly... Growl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her stomach let out a loud rumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia froze. \"Oh no...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clutched her stomach, realizing what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it. I forgot about the second effect!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting another second, she rushed out of her room, without cleaning or even tidying herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sprinted down the hall and burst into the restaurant, quickly grabbing the first ray she could find and started piling food like a starving wild beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While she was stuffing her mouth, the other disciples had just arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them blinked, confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Sister? You’re already eating?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia glared at him with her mouth full.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmph... yeah! Move faster or you’ll starve!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciple froze, then quickly joined in, grabbing plates as chaos erupted all over again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion appeared from the side, arms crossed, watching the madness unfold once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Breakfast chaos again, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He watched Dahlia devour her food like a wild beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She’s definitely adapting to the supplements faster than anyone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When breakfast finally ended, everyone looked like they had just survived a war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples stumbled back to their rooms to wash up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sounds of showers and groaning filled the dorm halls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that relief didn’t last long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time they reached the training hall, Dahlia was already standing there, holding a crate filled with the fiery red Demonic Creatine bottles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, everyone! You know the drill!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples groaned in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do we really have to drink that again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s so spicy it burns my soul...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. That means it’s working. Now drink!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tilted her own bottle and gulped it down without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steam rose from her shoulders again, her eyes glowing faintly red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples hesitated, but seeing Dahlua chug it like it was nothing, they followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like usual, one by one, they gagged from the spice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hot! Hot! My throat’s on fire!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why does it still taste like pain after drinking this straight for three days?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia dropped the bottle, trying to hold back the spiciness on her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hot! It’s really spicy but still... I’m awake, and you’re all awake. Let’s train!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The training day was brutal. Dahlia pushed them through endless sets of numerous exercises.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, she also trained harder than all of them combined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her focus wasn’t just on teaching or training, but also on cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was trying to fill her mana pool cells, wanting to push herself toward the second realm just like Garion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time the sun began to set, everyone was lying flat on the floor again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion clapped his hands once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dinner time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And like always, chaos followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They devoured their meals, drank the bitter Demonic Protein, and stumbled to their rooms like zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The following two days also passed the same way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Breakfast chaos, spicy creatine, harsh training, dinner chaos, bitter protein, and finally a good sleep to end the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, finally, Sunday came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stood at the front of the training hall, her arms crossed and a serious look on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples noticed immediately. She wasn’t smirking or shouting. She looked... thoughtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They glanced at each other nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh... Senior Sister? Did we... do something wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia shook her head slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at them all, her eyes calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s something important I want to tell you today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall went quiet. Even Garion, standing in the back, raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia took a deep breath to calm herself, and then she finally started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Today is the final.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples quickly became confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Final?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1004,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.542Z",1,"novelbin.me","b60b4f4d883ba239be7680b99888b61611258e22a9d1b9e05b76d1d3663bb0ea","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-85","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-436",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
