I started by watching videos, and I chose 10,000 combat power.
Chapter 67 Academy Garden
All morning, Luo Ying and Zhao Lin, dressed in sportswear, watched a video on their phones and tried their best to imitate the first starting movement of the first set of body-refining techniques.
In the video, Luo Fei's movements are fluid and seemingly slow, yet he stretches his body to a perfect balance.
However, when they tried it themselves, it was a completely different story.
"Ouch, no, no, I need to lower my waist a little more... Ouch, that hurts!"
Luo Ying gritted her teeth and tried to lower her body. A strong stretching sensation came from the back of her thighs, making her face scrunch up.
Zhao Lin was covered in sweat. Her body was already weak, and although the Body Tempering Pill had improved it, her flexibility and strength were still insufficient.
She struggled to maintain her swaying posture, her arms and legs trembling slightly.
"Linlin, breathe, coordinate your breathing!" Luo Ying reminded her cousin even though she hadn't gotten herself ready yet.
The morning passed in this difficult process of imitation and constant failure.
The two girls were panting heavily, their bodies soaked in sweat, but they hadn't even grasped the basic form of the first movement, let alone the internal exertion and coordination of their breathing.
Around noon, Luo Fei, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen and brought the last dish of steamed fish to the table.
"Xiaoying, Linlin, dinner's ready."
He called out upstairs.
After a while, the two girls dragged their somewhat sore bodies down the stairs listlessly.
"Brother..." Luo Ying plopped down at the dining table, resting her chin on the surface, and wailed, "That movement was inhuman! My legs feel like they don't belong to me anymore!"
Zhao Lin was also panting, wiping the sweat from her face with a damp towel, her eyes filled with a sense of grievance and frustration.
"Brother, am I too stupid? I just can't do it right."
Luo Fei served them rice and looked at their dejected appearance, feeling both amused and sorry for them.
He overlooked the fact that although this body-refining technique was marked as "beginner," it was, after all, a product of the system, designed to break through limits and improve physical fitness. Its difficulty for ordinary people with no foundation was no less than that of a heavenly book.
"Take your time, there's no rush," he comforted her. "It's only the first morning, it can't be that easy."
"Brother~" Luo Ying drawled, starting to whine, blinking her big eyes at Luo Fei, "Just watching videos isn't enough! There are so many details we don't understand. Can you teach us yourself this afternoon? Just watch from the side, and point out anything you're doing wrong right away!"
Although Zhao Lin didn't speak, she looked at Luo Fei with expectant eyes.
Looking at his two younger sisters' pitiful yet expectant eyes, Luo Fei couldn't bear to refuse them.
"Alright." He smiled helplessly. "I'll guide you this afternoon. Eat first, then rest for half an hour before we begin."
"Yay! You're the best, brother!" Luo Ying immediately beamed, as if all her fatigue had vanished.
Zhao Lin also smiled happily.
After lunch, Luo Fei tidied up the kitchen, while his sisters took a half-hour nap on the sofa.
Before the appointed time arrived, Luo Ying jumped up impatiently and pulled Luo Fei and Zhao Lin into the courtyard.
"Let's start with the first move." Luo Fei stood in front of the two of them, his expression becoming serious.
"Watch my demonstration, pay attention to my posture, especially the core engagement and the rhythm of my breathing."
He slowly demonstrated the starting motion again.
This time, he deliberately slowed down the pace and paused at key points so that his sisters could observe carefully.
"Xiaoying, your center of gravity is too far forward. You need to press your feet firmly into the ground and imagine yourself as a tree with your roots firmly planted."
"Linlin, keep your back straight, but not stiff, relax your shoulders, yes, take it slow."
He walked over to the two women and gently adjusted the angle of their arms with his hands, pressing on the pressure points of their lower backs.
With Luo Fei's hands-on guidance, the two girls finally managed to get into a relatively standard starting position.
Although he was still trembling and struggling, at least he got the "form" right by seven or eight points.
"Hold on, feel the stretch in your muscles, breathe, inhale... exhale slowly..."
Five minutes later, Luo Ying and Zhao Lin finally relaxed, covered in sweat. They felt even more tired than when they practiced aimlessly for an hour that morning, but their movements were much more skillful.
"Take a two-minute break, then we'll move on to the next step."
Luo Fei didn't give them much time to rest; he struck while the iron was hot.
The afternoon passed by in this repeated process of explanation, demonstration, correction, and persistence.
As the sun gradually slanted westward, it gilded the lawn with a golden edge.
Luo Ying and Zhao Lin's clothes were already soaked with sweat.
They were so tired they could barely speak, but their eyes grew brighter and brighter.
Under Luo Fei's strict yet incredibly patient guidance, by dinner time they finally managed to string together the first two movements of the first set of body-refining techniques, and did them quite well.
Although it's still far from being "proficient," let alone mastering the essence, it's already a huge step forward.
Looking at his sisters' tired yet excited faces, Luo Fei shook his head inwardly.
I had indeed underestimated the complexity of this body-refining technique.
At this rate, it will probably take at least a week to fully master the first set of twelve movements, since the difficulty of the later movements will only increase.
The difficulty of the second and third sets will only increase exponentially.
Dinner was cooked by Luo Fei again; it was simple, delicious, and nutritionally balanced, helping the sisters recover their strength.
The two girls' hands were trembling almost as they ate, but they had an unusually good appetite, which clearly showed that the high-intensity training had taken a huge toll.
After practice in the evening, Luo Fei prepared the medicinal liquid with a medicine packet and let them take their first medicinal bath.
A rich aroma of herbs wafted from the second floor.
As Luo Ying and Zhao Lin soaked in the warm medicinal water, they felt as if their aching muscles were being massaged by countless warm little hands. The fatigue gradually subsided, replaced by a tingling and comfortable sensation.
"What a wonderful feeling..." Luo Ying exclaimed in surprise as she soaked in the wooden tub.
Zhao Lin also closed her eyes comfortably.
And so, the days passed one by one.
Luo Fei's life focus has temporarily shifted entirely to instructing his two younger sisters in body-refining techniques.
He was like a strict coach and a very patient older brother, supervising their practice every day, correcting every minor mistake, and explaining the secrets of how to generate power.
Meanwhile, the daily system selection arrived as scheduled.
Day 1: [Obtained one 'Millennium Lingzhi' (processed, medicinal properties perfectly preserved)]
This vibrant Ganoderma lucidum is placed in the ring.
The next day, [Received a transfer of 5 Chinese Yuan (transferred to the designated account through legal channels)].
Something is better than nothing, and little by little, it adds up.
Day 3. [Obtained 'One Ton of Top-Grade Wuchang Rice' (stored in storage ring)]
The quality of the family's food is top-notch, and the cooked rice smells amazing.
On the fourth day, [obtained one Barrett M82A1 anti-materiel sniper rifle and 1000 rounds of ammunition] (stored in storage ring)
The appearance of this powerful weapon made Luo Fei raise an eyebrow; for the time being, he could only leave it in the ring.
On the fifth day, [I received a bespoke Italian master suit (worth over a million)].
He took it out and looked at it. The cut and fabric were impeccable, but for him, a tracksuit was more convenient, so he put the clothes in the closet.
On the sixth day, [we obtained the overall property rights of Building 8 in the newly built Xuefuyuan residential complex near Qingyang No. 1 Middle School (10 floors, 30 fully furnished apartments; all legal procedures have been completed, and the property certificate will be sent via express mail)].
Luo Fei was stunned when he saw the reward.
An entire building?
However, the property, located near the county's No. 1 Middle School, was quite good, whether for renting out or for his family to live in later, so he accepted it without hesitation.
That afternoon, the courier delivered the documents, keys, and community access card to the villa. Luo Fei didn't even look at them carefully before putting them into his storage ring.
On the seventh day, which is this morning, I chose to receive a set of Imperial Green Jadeite jewelry (including a necklace, earrings, bracelet, and ring).
The emerald green was so vibrant and precious that Luo Fei thought he might leave it to his mother or sister.
Over the past few days, under Luo Fei's meticulous guidance and with the aid of daily medicinal baths for repair and strengthening, Luo Ying and Zhao Lin finally completed, smoothly, and accurately practiced all twelve movements of the first set of body-refining techniques yesterday evening.
Although they were still drenched in sweat and almost exhausted after finishing, their eyes were filled with an unprecedented radiance and sense of accomplishment.
At the same time, their bodies also underwent significant changes.
It's not that the muscles are bulky, but rather that the lines have become smoother and more graceful, full of healthy vitality.
Her skin was smooth and radiant with a rosy glow.
Zhao Lin, who was originally somewhat thin, now looks well-proportioned and upright.
Luo Ying was full of energy, and her every move exuded a sense of agility.
Luo Fei could sense that their current physical fitness, in terms of strength, endurance, and reaction time alone, was already comparable to that of adult men who exercised regularly.
And this is just the improvement brought about by the first set of movements.
"Brother! We did it!" Luo Ying jumped up excitedly and hugged Luo Fei's arm.
Zhao Lin smiled sweetly, her face filled with genuine joy and gratitude.
"Well done." Luo Fei rarely praised her, and ruffled his two younger sisters' hair.
"The first set is considered the beginning. You don't need to use the medicinal bath for now. Keep practicing every day to consolidate your foundation. Once your body has fully adapted and you have a solid foundation, I will teach you the second set."
"Yes!" The two girls nodded vigorously.
These days, since my parents returned to Liuxi Village with my aunt, they have simply continued to stay at the agritainment business.
Aunt Luo Yumei became busy, driving her Tang car every day between the police station and other departments and real estate agencies to handle household registration transfer procedures and look for a house near the county's No. 1 Middle School in preparation for Zhao Lin's transfer.
When she returned to the villa and saw how hard the two girls were practicing, she just smiled with satisfaction and didn't ask any further questions.
