sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng suddenly woke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at the clock; it was only 4:36 AM.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside, darkness still prevailed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vague thunder sounds traveled from a distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mixed with those were the faint rustling noises.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, just after two days of clear weather, it was about to rain again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng yawned, sleep completely dissipated, and decided to get up early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned off the preset alarm, donned a sports jacket, and went to the bathroom to wash his face and rinse his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he stepped toward the living room balcony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gazing at the dawn outside, he slowly crouched down and said softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"December 4th, the 15th morning training begins!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night was still, the neon lights flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silhouette in front of the window, statue-like, sketched out a firm and steady profile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In no time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That figure suddenly changed, resembling a nimble antelope, leaping back and forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh swoosh swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fists cutting through the air, feet shuffling and spinning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having completed the warm-up exercises, Fang Cheng began practicing Air Attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boxing techniques, leg techniques, combination skills, throw-and-punch combinations...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Various combat skills came naturally, executed fluently without any hint of hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a sequence of Air Attack, Fang Cheng paused to catch his breath and closed his eyes to contemplate momentarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, he posed in a four-legged combat stance, trying to practice the basics of karate, according to the key points learned from instructional discs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Specifically, the routine demonstrated by Shijima Goro during training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It included kicks, punches, throws, grabs, pins, locks, strangles, reverses, acupoint, and breathing among many complex techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many theoretical karate techniques are actually very similar to traditional martial arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because karate originated in Xia Country and was extensively developed in Japan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After being refined by generations of masters, its practical capabilities have greatly improved and are more suited to the modern martial arts sports style.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, no matter how much it evolves, karate still leans towards tradition, emphasizing personal cultivation and the aesthetic of movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Different from modern competitive martial arts which is based solely on determining the winner with fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of performance on the ring, it's only slightly better than traditional martial artists from Xia Country.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If we talk about practical capabilities, Jujitsu, which might look less graceful, is actually more dominant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But yesterday, at the club, the performance of Shijima Goro caught Fang Cheng's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring his slightly unusual mental state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just focusing on his solid basics, beast-like vitality, and offensive desire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He definitely qualifies as a top-class fighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's just unclear how much the gap is when compared to world-class Boxing Kings like Zheng Haokang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure agilely flickered, as the sky gradually brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>6:50.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shower ceased, and the sounds of people began bustling on the streets again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the start of winter, the intermittent rainy weather had continued for a week.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unusual climate, to those unaware, felt like a return to the early summer rainy season.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng exhaled a breath of hot air, his face slightly beading with sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to remove his sports jacket and undershirt completely to let his body breathe and cool down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This revealed the muscles on his back with several bruises dabbed with red medicated wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another new day had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another morning training session ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A light panel screen appeared before him, and Fang Cheng reviewed today's gains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Concentration Experience +3]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Boxing experience +7]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Sanda experience +20]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Deep Squat experience +15]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lifting Leg experience +9]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling slightly more fulfilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at another message, the curve of his smile grew more pronounced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Congratulations, through relentless effort, your agility has been improved]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of yesterday's participation in the coaching division's physical test, he did a continuous 250 push-ups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today's training volume was actually much less than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, to prevent exacerbating the fatigue in his upper body muscles, Fang Cheng specifically omitted push-up exercises.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, this morning training session was still very rewarding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His current attributes are:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Strength: 11]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Agility: 12]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Constitution: 16]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Spirit: 18]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from the recently broken through Agility, the specific progress of the other three attributes are Strength 12%, Constitution 37%, Spirit 59%.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The special effect of \"Lone Heights\" is like an endless refueling machine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It has shortened the time required for physical attribute breakthroughs that would normally take at least a month, by two to three times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng moved his limbs and contracted his arms, throwing a series of jab punches as fast as lightning at the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whiz whiz whiz ——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Experiencing the noticeable change in punch speed after the increase in Agility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also felt a burst of soreness coming from his arm muscles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is a physiological phenomenon caused by lactic acid accumulation and protein breakdown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is inevitable once you exercise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indulging myself just this once, ultimately comes with a price...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng muttered to himself, returning to his stance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did 250 push-ups in one go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the time, it did not feel burdensome and was even very exhilarating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just after a night's sleep, his muscles became fatigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with the bruises caused by the fight with thugs at the night market the day before, targeting his arms and back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two effects combined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before fully recovering, it will slightly impact his daily training plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, he has high Constitution Attributes and his body is robust enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he would probably need to take a few days off to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I could master a skill like the quick healing ability in games, that would be even better...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng's thoughts flickered, summoning a light screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at all the skills he currently mastered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Speed Reading lv1 (54\u002F250)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Concentration lv1 (106\u002F250)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cooking Skill lv0 (89\u002F100)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cleaning lv0 (91\u002F100)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Boxing lv1 (164\u002F250)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Sanda lv0 (35\u002F100)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Push-ups lv1 (132\u002F250)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Deep Squat lv1 (90\u002F250)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lifting Leg lv1 (18\u002F250)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Potential Activation (23:58:16)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes swept over them one by one, landing on the last skill slot in a grey sealed state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The displayed cooldown time shockingly had less than a day left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hope it doesn't affect tomorrow's plan to unlock Pull-ups...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Fang Cheng immediately gathered his thoughts and headed to the bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He collected a few clean clothes, preparing to go downstairs to the public bathhouse for a hot shower soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today is Friday, no work, so he had plenty of resting time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glancing at the gloomy sky outside the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng then turned on the TV, switched to East Capital News Station, wanting to check the weather forecast at 7:30.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soothing voice of the host then began to resonate inside the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't time yet, the station was still broadcasting the morning news program \"Good Morning East Capital.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng put down the remote control, went to the bathroom, first turned on some cold water and wiped his body with a towel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This station's news update, today around 3 AM, a severe explosion occurred at the West Mountain Ruins excavation site, triggering a large-scale wildfire...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"West Mountain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Fang Cheng flipped the towel over his back and came back out to watch the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mother works in Ren'an Hospital, located right at the foot of West Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...The specific cause of the accident is unclear, and the loss has not yet been assessed; it may be due to sabotage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the moment, the East City government and the National Security Department have dispatched a large number of police and firefighters to the area to carry out evacuation and rescue operations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To prevent traffic congestion and potential criminal movement, West Gate area is temporarily on alert, blocking all intersections and strictly prohibiting idle vehicles from entering and exiting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the public has plans to travel to this area in the near future, please note the change in schedule and await further updates from our station...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the host sitting upright reporting the news, and the pans over the images of West Mountain shrouded in thick black smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng's eyebrows slightly furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then returned to the bedroom, took out his phone from his bag, and quickly dialed a number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly after, a series of waiting tones sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beep—beep—beep—————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the call automatically disconnected.\u003C\u002Fp>",1380,"2026-05-29T15:13:17.559Z","2026-06-01T04:29:35.325Z",1,"novelbin.me","b03e7cc66998e010c2b719dfc9288c2c38abd873920546356d81ac367465ea63","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-32","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-30",1278,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-cover.jpg"]
