Getting stronger and stronger starting from Marvel.

Chapter 3 Staying up all night is equivalent to cultivating immortality

Nighttime, in the dark little house.

Bai Ye supported himself on the ground with both hands and did push-ups, rising and falling with each movement.

1, 2, 3... 30, 31, 32... 50, 51, 52...

After doing 50, his pace slowed down, and he gradually felt muscle soreness, but he overcame it with his willpower and mechanically completed the push-ups with standard form.

After reaching the 62nd step, Bai Ye could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, opening the control panel while breathing heavily.

Compared to the daytime, there are now more than a dozen different types of training methods listed in the instructions.

Description section:

You completed a run with a total distance of 2024 meters and an average pace of 4 minutes and 42 seconds per km...

You completed one bodyweight push-up with a total of 89 repetitions...

You completed one bodyweight squat with a total of 103 repetitions...

You completed one...

Looking at the long list of instructions on the label, Bai Ye smiled with satisfaction, after all, it represented the results of his hard work throughout the day.

"At the current rate, even with all the training methods combined, my stamina will only reach around 1.2 in less than a week, which still feels like too little."

"Fine, I'll try to train hard for a year no matter what. I'll go get a gym membership tomorrow."

"Put your studies aside for the next year. If things really don't work out, you'll have to accept the fact that you're just an ordinary person and repeat a year."

He sat up from the ground again, and even though he was very tired, he still started kneading the muscles in his arms. If he didn't massage properly after exercising, the soreness in his muscles the next day would teach him a lesson.

After a quick massage, Bai Ye glanced at the clock on the wall; it was already 10 p.m.

After a quick wash, Bai Ye lay back on the bed, feeling her body reach its limit. She slowly closed her eyes, about to drift off to sleep.

But just before he fell asleep, he suddenly opened his eyes because he had thought of a very important question.

"If I stay up all night, does that count as mental training? Whatever, I'll just stay up one night and see what the instructions say tomorrow."

Thinking of this, Bai Ye, who was extremely sleepy, forced himself to open his eyes. Using the moonlight streaming in from the window, he rolled out of bed and began to exercise despite his exhaustion, managing to stay awake for five hours.

Finally, at four o'clock the next morning, Bai Ye could no longer hold on and fainted.

In the instant before he lost consciousness, a new message appeared in his message box.

Description section:

你完成了一次总时长21时13分12秒的持续活动，重複954遍，身体出现长期损伤3.21%，体质达到1.5时可自行恢复。

Willpower consumed 96.7%, Willpower cap increased by 32%. Repeat 3 times to increase Spirit cap by 0.1.

At noon the next day, Bai Ye regained consciousness from her deep sleep.

He got up from the ground, rubbed his slightly throbbing head, opened the attribute panel, and was immediately surprised by the status display in the description section.

This level of power increase is unheard of. No wonder staying up all night is called cultivating immortality; it turns out that staying up all night really can make you stronger.

"You couldn't even last 21 hours yesterday? Then I'll try to last 25 hours today." Bai Ye made up her mind, quickly washed up, and opened the refrigerator.

To maintain good health, it's essential to eat well while exercising.

The refrigerator contains a wide variety of foods. Eating these foods is equivalent to directly ingesting all the nutrients the human body needs, including protein, lipids, carbohydrates, and vitamins.

Bai Ye bought all of these after school yesterday.

Furthermore, while ensuring the nutritional value of the food Bai Ye purchased, he also tried to spend more money to buy foods that provided similar nutritional value but tasted better than cheaper foods.

In his view, enduring the hardships of training is for a better life in the future, but if you endure hardship for the sake of enduring hardship, isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

So, as long as he has enough money and it doesn't affect his training efficiency, he naturally won't mistreat himself.

"But wouldn't eating unpalatable food and often going hungry be better for mental training? After all, physical hardship and hunger are a kind of tempering of willpower," Bai Ye thought to himself as he slowly chewed the expensive food in his hand.

Looking at the delicious-looking food in his hand, Bai Ye hesitated for a moment before taking another big bite.

He can accept the pain of regular training, but if eating feces counts as training and can make him stronger, then he would rather not become stronger.

After spending a few minutes filling his rumbling stomach, Bai Ye tidied up the room and then got up to head outside. It was time to put the gym on the agenda.

Today is Friday, which is school day, but I already asked the school for leave yesterday. With Saturday and Sunday, three days should be enough to raise my mental attribute to 0.1.

After searching for the nearest gym on his phone and briefly browsing reviews of more than a dozen gyms within a five-kilometer radius, Bai Ye settled on a gym called Mainz.

The reason for choosing this gym is that it is a well-known chain brand in the gym industry, and it has been operating locally for seven or eight years with a good reputation in the surrounding area. Theoretically, the risk of it running away should not be too great.

After checking the distance and seeing that it was only about 1.8 kilometers, Bai Ye started running at full speed towards the gym without hesitation.

On the street, Bai Ye kept sprinting towards his goal. He was surprised to find that although his muscles were still sore, he ran more lightly and easily than yesterday.

Mingming's pace was more compact than yesterday, but it wasn't until about 400 meters that his breathing began to become somewhat erratic.

Although the panel values ​​didn't show it, he could clearly feel that his physical condition had changed significantly in just one day.

Description section:

You completed a run of 1824 meters at an average pace of 4 minutes and 17 seconds per kilometer, repeating it 5670 times. Your body suffered 0.12% long-term damage, which can be recovered on its own when your physical fitness reaches 1.5.

Repeat 94 times to increase maximum strength by 0.1.

Repeat 42 times to increase maximum constitution by 0.1.

Repeating this 132 times will increase your maximum mental strength by 0.1.

When Bai Ye stood in front of the gym and compared the numbers shown on the display board yesterday with today's, a sense of satisfaction arose from the realization that hard work pays off.

Yesterday I ran two kilometers and was exhausted. It took 365 repetitions to get a mental boost of 0.1. Today I ran an easier 1.8 kilometers and only needed 132 repetitions, which is a reduction of almost 60%.

This gradual, yet obvious process of becoming stronger began to fascinate him.
