Chapter 007: Getting Started
“It’s upgraded!”
Chen Jue let out a long breath, stopped punching, and quickly looked at the attribute panel.
Name: Chen Jue
Age: 27
Strength: 0.86
Agility: 0.78
Intelligence: 1.22
Constitution: 1.17
Skills: [Ship Fist Lv1 (1/20 0)]
Allocable free attribute points: 0.06
The panel attributes have undergone significant changes compared to before. In addition to the strength and agility being increased by 0.01 each due to the improvement of boxing skills, the most eye-catching is the ship fist that has been upgraded to Lv1.
To be honest, his previous level 0 boat fist was not very good, and it was all thanks to Chen Jue's imitation of others.
Once it was upgraded to Lv1, Chen Jue's understanding of this boxing style began to change.
“Is this considered the real beginning?”
Seeing that there was no one around, Chen Jue performed another set of boxing moves.
I found that this time, whether it was the change of moves or the power, it was much smoother than before, compared to the jerky feeling at Lv0. At this time, Chen Jue had completely mastered the boat fist, and there was no more omissions.
Even without guidance from outsiders, Chen Jue could continue practicing without making any major mistakes.
The feeling was not like the sudden enlightenment in martial arts novels, where the knowledge of boxing was instilled into Chen Jue's mind all at once. Instead, it was like allowing Chen Jue to practice on his own, allowing his body to form a closed set of muscle memory.
“Hoohoo!”
After practicing two more rounds, Chen Jue felt that the more he practiced the boat fist, the more comfortable it became, and heat surged all over his body.
As for the column of free attribute points, it also increased a little bit without anyone noticing!
"The efficiency of practicing has improved!"
"Before, it took me more than ten cycles of practice to accumulate 0.01 attribute value, but now I can get a small amount after three rounds of practice!" Chen Jue was a little excited and recalled the scene of his previous breakthrough.
He found that standing on the embankment to practice boxing, in addition to helping him adapt to the environment, the quiet atmosphere around him also helped him calm his thoughts.
That feeling is just like the legendary monk entering into trance or Taoist priest meditating.
Don't be disturbed by distracting thoughts and focus on boxing.
" It seems that I have to come to this dam more often to practice boxing in the future!" Noticing the environmental BUFF bonus here, Chen Jue practiced for another half an hour.
It was not until after 9 o'clock, when the wind was bitingly cold, that we walked down the mountain along the main road and returned home.
…
It was already 10 o'clock in the evening when I took a hot bath. If I were in Hangzhou at this time, it would probably be the beginning of the nightlife.
Singing karaoke, dancing, sitting in the Internet cafe, or watching a movie, although Chen Village is quiet, it lacks a lot of the fun of the city. Chen Jue still needs time to adapt.
Feeling hungry quickly, Chen Jue heated up some crispy duck and dried shrimps for a midnight snack and opened a bottle of beer. While eating, he propped up his tablet and watched fitness videos online.
After ordering a lot of fitness equipment online in the afternoon, Chen Jue planned to further exercise his body functions through scientific methods.
Although he has mastered the ancient martial art of boat fist, Chen Jue feels that modern scientific training methods should also play a significant role in improving attributes.
After all, fitness is the mainstream sport nowadays. Twenty years ago, activities like boxing and martial arts might have been popular due to the popularity of martial arts TV series and movies, but nowadays they have completely declined and been eliminated.
However, after watching the videos of these bodybuilding masters for a while, Chen Jue felt that these so-called fitness muscle building and fitness fat loss were all blind spots.
Especially those so-called bodybuilding masters. Although they have well-developed muscles and body contours like sculptures, the abnormal sense of aging visible to the naked eye makes Chen Jue alert.
You should know that according to scientists' research, although human cells will continue to divide, once the upper limit of division is reached, they will inevitably age and die.
After taking a look at the age information of these bodybuilding masters, although they are all relatively young, judging from the abnormal wrinkles and dryness on their appearance, they should be suffering from premature aging due to excessive stimulation of muscle cell division.
If we look at it from the perspective of practicing martial arts, these so-called bodybuilding masters have gone too far in their practice and have embarked on an unorthodox path.
Of course, this is Chen Jue's own understanding and opinion. He himself has just started exercising, and his understanding of physical fitness is still at a very superficial level.
But after watching these bodybuilding videos for a while, Chen Jue always felt that something was wrong, as if some kind of soul was missing.
Although he also envied the perfect bodies of these bodybuilders, the abnormal premature aging made him determined to give up the idea of learning completely by following the videos.
"Even if fitness equipment is delivered, you should still exercise moderately."
"If you just blindly pursue muscle gain, fat loss, and strengthening so-called core strength, it may not help prolong your life."
Chen Jue felt that after truly learning the boat fist, his understanding of the body had broadened a lot.
However, these fitness instructions are not completely useless. Some scientific movement explanations also make Chen Jue more interested. He plans to wait for the equipment to be delivered and then practice to see if he can get rid of his beer belly.
Thinking of this, Chen Jue put down the half-drunk beer in his hand.
"Drinking alcohol damages the liver and also paralyzes the brain. It seems that I have to drink moderately in the future and cannot develop this drinking habit every night." Chen Jue poured the wine and cleaned up the table.
After he went up to the second floor and lay down to digest the food in his stomach, he turned his attention to the attribute points he had accumulated that day.
Allocable free attribute points: 0.08
The breakthrough of the boat fist greatly increased Chen Jue's speed in brushing up attributes.
After taking a look at the various attributes on the attribute panel, Chen Jue didn't think much about it and clicked all the free attributes that were not yet warm to the constitution.
The stronger the physique, the better the physical strength, the faster the recovery ability will be, which can promote the improvement of physical fitness, which is what is called the root bones, qi and blood in martial arts novels.
As for strength and agility, although they are lower than the standard values of adult males at this time, Chen Jue believes that after a period of training, strength and agility will definitely increase on their own, so there is no rush to add some points.
"When you gain attribute points from now on, give priority to adding them to your physical fitness!"
After making up his mind, Chen Jue allocated all 0.08 attribute values to physique, and his original physique value of 1.17 increased to 1.25.
A warm current spread throughout my body, my heartbeat became slower, my breathing became deeper, and my pulse beat became much calmer.
The physical attribute of 1.25 is equivalent to 25% higher than the marked physical attribute of an adult male. Even if Chen Jue does not continue to add points in the future, it will be enough for him to live to eighty or ninety years old .
Therefore, that night, Chen Jue felt that his sleep was more fragrant, sweeter and more comfortable than before!
