Only I Have the Law: A Realistic Cultivation Game

Chapter 22 Morning Exercise and the Girl Next Door

Six o'clock in the morning.

Xu Zhiyi woke up on time, awakened by her biological clock.

Since acquiring the [cultivation technique], he has clearly felt that he needs to sleep less. He only needs to sleep for three or four hours to have plenty of energy.

He rolled out of bed, and as usual, first circulated the "Hun Yuan Breathing Technique" once, then put on his slippers and went to the open-air balcony to stretch his body.

After all, he's now an assistant instructor at a gym, so he should at least know some basic fitness moves.

Therefore, he specifically consulted Lin Wei yesterday, and she recommended several live streamers to him and sent him some video materials so that he could learn from them when he had time.

The air is so fresh in the morning, it's the perfect time to get up early and exercise.

Xu Zhiyi put on her headphones and followed the video to do a few stretching exercises. When she changed exercises, her gaze inadvertently swept across the balcony next door and she saw a familiar figure.

Tang Qingxi was standing with her back to him, tiptoeing to hang up clothes.

She wore only a champagne-colored slip dress, the silky fabric clinging to her body and highlighting her beautiful curves. She looked wealthy and generous, and the hem of the dress only reached mid-thigh, revealing a pair of fair and slender legs.

It was sunrise, and the golden morning light shone on her, outlining her graceful figure. Her slightly curled long hair swayed in the wind, and she seemed to be glowing.

Xu Zhiyi subconsciously looked away, but her movements were still a beat too slow.

Tang Qingxi had already turned around.

Eyes facing each other.

The air seemed to freeze.

Tang Qingxi clearly hadn't expected to be seen so early in the morning. Her pupils widened slightly, and she instinctively raised her hand to cover the neckline of her nightgown. Her delicate face flushed red at a visible speed.

However, she quickly reverted to her carefree demeanor, looking at Xu Zhiyi with a half-smile, a mischievous glint in her eyes, "How is it? Do I look good, sister?"

"Cough cough~"

Xu Zhiyi coughed twice, took off her earphones, and said, "What did you say? I can't hear you."

Tang Qingxi rolled her eyes at him. "What are you pretending for in front of me?"

Xu Zhiyi had no choice but to tell the truth.

"I was just training, not spying on you."

"Not peeking?" Tang Qingxi raised an eyebrow and teased, "So you're looking openly? Tell me, am I pretty or not?"

Xu Zhiyi decided not to respond to that, and put on her headphones to continue practicing her fitness moves.

The balcony of this old house is not very big, less than ten square meters. There are some flowers and plants around it, as well as a clothes rack. There is only a clean open space in the middle.

However, it's sufficient for basic training.

He did a few warm-up exercises, then bent over and placed his hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart with his fingers pointing forward, pressing his body straight down until his chest touched the ground. Then he tightened his core and straightened his arms.

Throughout this process, the body remains straight, without any compensatory movements such as slouching, sticking out the buttocks, or shrugging the shoulders.

These standard push-ups are very physically demanding. Xu Zhiyi did 100 in one go at a rate of one per second, then rested for 30 seconds, and then did another 100.

He only started to feel a little tired after doing two hundred standard push-ups.

After that, he practiced several sets of jumping jacks, mountain climbers, and burpees.

These basic training exercises were not difficult for him and were quite easy to practice.

"Forty-seven, forty-eight, forty-nine..."

As Xu Zhiyi trained and counted, fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on her body. Her short-sleeved shirt, which was already a bit small, became soaked with sweat and clung to her body like a rag.

He looked up at the balcony next door and saw that Tang Qingxi had disappeared. So he simply took off his short-sleeved shirt and threw it aside, continuing to practice while wearing only a pair of black sweatpants.

Without the constraints of his shirt, he immediately felt much more comfortable and at ease.

Looks like I should buy some new clothes.

We also need to buy new shoes.

After his [Physical] stat was raised to 7 points, it was as if he had undergone a second growth spurt. All aspects of his body grew larger, and his physique became as perfect as a sculpture meticulously sculpted by a master artist.

After doing three more sets of squat jumps, Xu Zhiyi stood up, ready to end his morning training, but out of the corner of his eye he noticed Tang Qingxi standing on the balcony next door watching him.

She changed into a white short-sleeved T-shirt and athletic shorts, tied her hair in a high ponytail, and held a glass of milk in her hand, her gaze involuntarily falling on Xu Zhiyi.

In the morning light, the boy's exposed muscles were smooth and clearly defined, not the exaggerated bulges of a bodybuilder, but the kind that looked slim in clothes but was all muscle when undressed.

Sturdy and powerful!

What's most striking is that he has broad shoulders but a tight waist. When he exercises, his back muscles spread out like wings, his eight-pack abs bulge slightly, and his V-lines on both sides extend clearly downwards into his sports pants.

His skin was neither dark nor fair, but rather radiated a healthy glow from abundant blood and energy.

Looking at his strong and powerful body, Tang Qingxi couldn't help but recall how Xu Zhiyi had easily subdued the subway pervert with just one hand yesterday at the subway station.

She was surprised at the time, but she was so busy calling the police that she forgot about it. Now, seeing that physique, she immediately understood where that power came from.

Seeing that Tang Qingxi was staring at her, Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but remind her, "Hey, you're drooling into the cup."

"Oops, what's that saliva?"

Tang Qingxi was stunned for a moment, then quickly wiped her mouth with her hand.

She immediately realized she'd been tricked, her cheeks flushing red. She glared at him, annoyed. "So, you think you're something now, making fun of your older sister!"

"No, no, I wouldn't dare," Xu Zhiyi said with a slight smile. "But if you keep watching, I'll have to charge you!"

"Who cares?"

Tang Qingxi scoffed, "Believe it or not, I can just snap my fingers and a bunch of muscular hunks will line up and show me their eight-pack abs?"

"What do you need so many abs for? To use as a washboard?"

"Is the washboard the point? The point is that I'm naturally beautiful, gorgeous, and have tons of muscular guys chasing after me. I don't care about your skinny little frame at all."

"I'm relieved to hear that. I can finally have beef today."

"What the hell?"

"You've hyped up so many cattle, the price of beef should drop by at least half today!"

"Xu Zhiyi!"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong! I believe you have a ton of muscular male suitors!"

"snort!"

Tang Qingxi angrily took a big gulp of milk, then looked at Xu Zhiyi and asked, "You seem to have grown quite a bit taller. Have you been working out a lot lately?"

"I guess so," Xu Zhiyi replied while doing relaxation exercises. "A friend introduced me to a gym as an assistant instructor. The pay is pretty good, so I need to get some training."

So you're doing a part-time job again.

Tang Qingxi looked at Xu Zhiyi. Although Xu Zhiyi was three years younger than her, she seemed more mature and composed. She was already able to support herself at such a young age.

Oh, right, he also has to support a grandmother who lives in a nursing home!

Thinking about this, she couldn't help but compare him to her classmates and friends, but found that there seemed to be no comparison at all.

Take Chen Minghao from yesterday, for example.

He was ripped off at a darts stand but didn't dare to argue with the person. When he encountered a pervert on the subway, he backed down instead. He showed no sense of responsibility whatsoever!

In contrast, Xu Zhiyi, despite encountering a major change at a young age, did not give up on himself or wallow in self-pity. Instead, he shouldered the burden of life on his own shoulders.

He can calmly step forward when faced with some unexpected events, perfectly demonstrating what it means to have the responsibility that a real man should have!

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Seeing that Tang Qingxi's thoughts had wandered off again as she spoke, Xu Zhiyi reached out and beckoned to her, "Soul, come back~ Soul, come back~"

"screw you!"

Tang Qingxi snapped out of her daze, scolded him playfully, and pretended to pour the milk in her cup onto him.

"Surrender! Surrender!"

Xu Zhiyi quickly raised the white flag.

Tang Qingxi then stopped and looked at him again. She saw that his firm abdominal muscles were tense and relaxed with each movement, full of power and masculine charm.

Wait a minute!

Is it really appropriate to stare at a boy's abs like that?

Tang Qingxi's cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly looked away, pretending to lower her head to drink milk, but her eyes still couldn't help but glance at the balcony next door.

The sun is rising, and spring is in full bloom.
