High Martial Arts: Liver Becomes the Master of the Universe

Chapter 68 Family Phone Call
Qin Feng's consciousness was drawn in by a gentle force and instantly sank into a pure white virtual space.

Before him stood a virtual instructor dressed in the standard Imperial drill uniform, his form composed of countless streams of data.

His face was blurred, but his figure was upright, and every joint seemed to have been crafted with the most precise calculations.

"The Intermediate Imperial Body Forging Method consists of 108 forms, and its core principle is 'destruction before construction,' which means limit, recovery, and enhancement."

A cold, electronic voice rang out, and the virtual instructor began his rehearsal.

Unlike the "Elementary Imperial Body Forging Method," which focuses slightly on stretching muscles and bones, clearing the flow of qi and blood, and building a solid physical foundation, every movement in the Intermediate Body Forging Method is filled with extreme pressure on the body.

First move, Dragon Coiling.

The mentor's body suddenly sank down, his spine creaking like a dragon, and all his muscles twisted and tensed in a way that defied human ergonomics, as if trying to twist every muscle fiber into a rope.

Just by looking at it, Qin Feng could feel the tearing pain.

The second move, Tiger Crouching.

The movement changed again, with all four limbs on the ground. The core of the waist and abdomen instantly burst out with terrifying power, keeping the entire body suspended three inches off the ground. All the weight of the body was pressed on a few points of force, and the muscle groups began to vibrate at a high frequency.

……

One move after another, the virtual instructor's movements were fluid and graceful, full of power and beauty.

But Qin Feng understood that this was a crazy test of the limits of the body.

This set of body-strengthening methods actively guides the body into an "overload" state through a series of high-intensity movements, causing minor and controllable damage to muscles, fascia, and even bones.

Then, by absorbing high-level nutrients and spiritual energy, these "damages" are repaired.

Each time the body repairs itself, it becomes stronger, denser, and more explosive in order to adapt to the next "damage".

This is the essence of "destruction before construction".

Qin Feng's eyes were fixed on every detail of the virtual instructor's movements; his powerful mental strength gave him a photographic memory.

This ability became increasingly apparent after he advanced to the second level of martial artist and his mental strength improved significantly.

In junior high school, he needed to read the texts aloud repeatedly to memorize them.

Now, he has completely imprinted this incredibly complex body-strengthening method, which contains 108 postures and thousands of key points of movement, into the depths of his mind after only reading it once.

Qin Feng estimated that this was the effect of his mental strength being enhanced by consistently practicing meditation.

"Memory is only the first step."

Qin Feng turned off the 3D instructional video and his consciousness returned to reality.

He knew perfectly well that physical memory was far more difficult to form than memory in the brain.

Next, he needs to practice countless times to perfectly and flawlessly replicate all the movements with every muscle and bone in his body before he can be considered to have truly "entered the door".

Just as he was preparing to plan his training schedule for tomorrow, the wrist terminal vibrated slightly.

He brought up the private domain panel and found a red dot flashing in the friend request bar in the upper right corner.

[Friend Request]

[Applicant]: Lin Yue (Class Teacher, Grade 11, Class 7, Qiming No.1 High School)

[Additional Information]: I am your new homeroom teacher, Lin Yue. Please approve my application.

Qin Feng did not hesitate and clicked "Apply".

Almost the instant the message was sent to them.

This is clearly a pre-set automatic reply.

From: Lin Yue

Hello Qin Feng. I am your homeroom teacher, Lin Yue. Welcome to the second year of high school.

The second year of high school is a completely self-study year with no fixed classrooms. All learning and practice tasks must be arranged by you.

If your student contract has not reached Level C, please inform me and I will apply for temporary resources for you. If you have already reached Level C, please continue your studies on your own.

If there are any suitable individual practical training assignments for you later, I will contact you 24 hours in advance. Please keep your communication channels open.

Monthly rankings and point distribution on the 1st will be automatically calculated by the private domain system based on your performance in the exclusive arena. Intensive real-world practice is the best way to hone your skills; please be prepared.

If you have any questions about cultivation or rules, feel free to message me privately.

May your military prowess flourish.

Qin Feng read it and replied with two words.

[Qin Feng]: Received.

He glanced at the digital clock on the wall; it was already 8:45 PM. His daily routine had always been regular, both in his first year of high school and as he planned to continue in his second.

I go to bed at 9 p.m. and wake up at 5 a.m.

Morning physical training, afternoon practical exercises, evening physical training and meditation.

He picked up the terminal and dialed his home phone.

After a few beeps, the communication was connected, and a holographic projection popped up in front of the bed.

As the light and shadow flickered, the face of his father, Qin Dahai, appeared before him.

To Qin Feng's surprise, the background behind his father was not an empty living room, but rather a room crowded with people.

Uncle Wang Ming, Aunt Wang Ming, and three cousins ​​were all present.

"Fengzi!"

Qin Dahai's face immediately lit up with a smile when he saw his son.

"Dad, Uncle, Aunt."

Qin Feng greeted them one by one, then asked, "Why are you all at my house?"

"Haha, it's a long story."

Uncle Wang Ming laughed heartily, “Well, your two younger brothers, Wang Yu and Wang Qin, are starting junior high school this year. It’s the time when they need resources to build their foundation. I was a little short on cash, so I sold our old house and used the money to buy medicine for them. Their work units will be allocating new apartments next month, so they’ll be staying at your place for the next month.”

Qin Dahai added from the side, "There's enough room at home! Your aunt and I tidied up your room for your uncle and two younger brothers. Your aunt and younger sister will stay in your dad's room. As for me, I'll tidy up that storage room and turn it into a comfortable single bed!"

Seeing the smiles on his father's and uncle's family's faces, without the slightest hint of reluctance, Qin Feng felt a little relieved.

His home is a standard two-bedroom, one-living room apartment, plus a small storage room.

This arrangement is indeed a bit cramped.

"Fengzi, I heard from your dad that you're already a level two martial artist and even skipped a grade to be in your second year of high school?"

"My aunt asked curiously."

"Yes, I was just promoted."

Qin Feng nodded.

"Good! Great!"

Wang Ming slapped his thigh, "At this rate, I'll definitely be a level three martial artist in another year! Then, whether I join the army or a big company, my future will be limitless!"

The family chatted amongst themselves, creating a warm and lively atmosphere.

"By the way, Fengzi,"

Qin Dahai suddenly remembered something, "Next month's... Qimingxing Inter-School League, we'll definitely watch the live stream and cheer you on!"

"it is good!"

After exchanging a few more pleasantries and reminding Qin Feng to take care of his health and not to overexert himself in cultivation, the family reluctantly ended the call.

The holographic projection disappeared, and the dormitory returned to silence.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Feng sent his father a private message.

[Qin Feng]: Dad, is everything really alright at Uncle's house? Selling a house is no small matter.

Qin Dahai's reply came quickly.

[Father]: Don't worry, everything's fine! Your uncle just got his power armor designer certification, and his salary increased to 100,000. He just started working, so he hasn't received his salary yet. Plus, with Wang Yu and Wang Qin, both starting junior high at the same time, there are two expenses, so we sold the house because we were short on cash. The company-allocated housing will arrive next month; it's much better than their old, run-down place. Oh, and I've already paid back the 10,000 Imperial Coins I borrowed from your uncle.

Seeing this, Qin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

[Father]: Don't worry about home, everything is moving in a positive direction. My health is almost fully recovered. You just need to focus on your cultivation.

[Qin Feng]: I definitely will.

After ending his communication with his family, Qin Feng cleared his mind of distractions, sat cross-legged, and began to practice the "Emperor's Meditation Method."

Strands of energy converged in the spiritual world, and the "Cherishing Nail" in the sea of ​​consciousness emitted a faint and gentle light.

After an unknown amount of time, when he exited deep meditation, the system notification sounded as expected.

[Proficiency in the Emperor's Meditation Method +1]

I glanced at the time; it was exactly nine o'clock.

He lay down, his breathing became steady, and he fell into a deep sleep.
