Houki Shinonono said, "I'm a practitioner of kendo. You know about kendo in Japan, right?"
Cecilia said, "Yes, I know. I'm a practitioner of European swordsmanship myself, and I have some knowledge of one-handed swords and swift swords."
Shinonono Houki looked at Cecilia with a somewhat incredulous expression and said, "I always thought that a young lady like you would mainly practice sports like horseback riding. You are quite different from other young ladies."
Cecilia said, "Of course. Horse riding is such a boring sport, and it requires strict control over weight and body shape. I hate those restrictions. Swordsmanship, on the other hand, allows me to fight freely, which helps me develop a beast-like fighting instinct. This is a benefit that a weak sport like horse riding can't provide."
Shinobu realized that she didn't feel any ill will towards Cecilia as a rival. In fact, she quite liked Cecilia's decisive nature. If they weren't rivals, that would be even better.
Cecilia said, "Hou is different from most other Asian girls I've met. It's probably because we both practice martial arts. Although we practice different martial arts, we both have something that ordinary people can't have."
Houki Shinohara nodded. There is a huge difference between martial arts and simply exercising. Exercise is about pursuing the beauty of the body and a healthy physique, while martial arts, on the surface, is about strengthening the body, but in reality, it is about how to kill the opponent in the shortest amount of time. It is a kind of killing technique. Martial arts and exercise have completely different purposes from the root. Therefore, she could feel some common ground between Cecilia and herself.
The elevator number had reached "", the elevator doors opened, and the two stepped out one after the other. After turning a corner, they headed towards Li Wei's room.
Li Wei's room door was unlocked. The two girls gently pushed it open, and the moment they opened the door, they saw a scene that amazed them. Li Wei was doing a handstand using two thumbs, while bending his arms and pushing his body up and down. It was a handstand push with two thumbs, which was extremely difficult.
Li Wei's muscles were taut, and his bare upper body revealed his perfect pectoral muscles and well-defined abdominal muscles. When Li Wei saw the two of them, he nimbly rolled over and ended his workout.
Cecilia snapped out of her daze and said, "You are the most amazing street workout athlete I have ever seen. Such difficult moves are beyond the capabilities of most street workout athletes."
Li Wei laughed and said, "This is not just street workout to show off your muscles, but the training method of the Vajra Finger of Shaolin Temple. This martial art can train your fingers to the extreme, and you can bend a coin with the strength of your fingers."
Cecilia said, "Shaolin Temple? You mean those ascetics called 'monks'? I've heard they're warriors who train hard. If that's their training method, then they certainly deserve to be called warriors."
What Cecilia didn't know was that in the real world, the number of Shaolin monks had decreased significantly compared to before. These days, living conditions are getting better and better, and fewer and fewer people are willing to endure the hardships of martial arts training.
After all, practicing martial arts is just too arduous. These days, apart from a few truly ascetic monks, most monks have started to worry about their finances, making the decline of martial arts inevitable.
Chapter 1. The Shameful Past
Li Wei put on the T-shirt that was lying to the side, covering up his perfect figure. Houki Shinonono and Cecilia both looked disappointed. They were both very interested in Li Wei's perfect figure, but they were too embarrassed to say it directly, since it was easy for people to misunderstand.
Li Wei clenched his fists, making a crisp cracking sound with his knuckles, and said, "I'm all prepared. I wonder if you are? My massage mainly targets the back muscles, spine, shoulder blades, and cervical spine, so it might be a bit painful at first. I hope you can understand that."
Both girls nodded. The kendo relaxation massage that Shinonono Houki was familiar with also caused muscle soreness at the beginning. Cecilia, on the other hand, usually used a fascia gun to directly massage her body. The impact of the fascia gun would make the muscles that had been exercising and were fatigued feel very sore and numb. Ordinary people would not be able to stand this sore and numb feeling. Even people who exercise regularly would want to struggle when they were being massaged with a fascia gun. But she could tolerate this sore and numb feeling. Her tolerance was far beyond that of ordinary people.
Li Wei lived in a single dormitory room, so the two girls lay down on Li Wei's bed with their backs up and their hands under their chins.
Houki Shinohara said, "Let Cecilia go first."
Shinonono Houki wasn't familiar with the massage Li Wei had mentioned, so she wanted to see what it was all about. She was also afraid that she might make embarrassing noises because of the comfort the massage made her muscles feel. If Cecilia went first, even if it was embarrassing, it would be Cecilia who would be embarrassed first.
Cecilia didn't think too much about it and said directly, "Then I'll go first. But I usually have the maid use a fascia gun on me, so my tolerance is higher than that of ordinary people. Even if the massage technique is a bit heavy, I can still bear it."
Li Wei looked surprised and said, "My massage technique combines the internal energy of Chongguo martial arts. It is more effective at relieving physical fatigue than a fascia gun, but it is also much more effective at stimulating the muscles and bones. Are you sure you want me to use a stronger touch?"
When Li Wei was still an ordinary person, he had experienced the power of a massage gun while working out at the gym. When that thing hit his sore muscles, it felt like countless ants were crawling on them. Although it was very effective in relieving muscle fatigue, to be honest, after trying it once, Li Wei never wanted to do it again because it was just too itchy. He moved around like a fish out of water, which made his personal trainer complain the whole time.
Because of that deep, tingling sensation in his muscles, Li Wei made an embarrassing, pig-like scream that could be heard in almost half the gym. Because of this incident, he was too embarrassed to go to the gym for half a month. It was truly a social death.
Just before Li Wei left the country, he went to that gym again. When the receptionist saw him, she smiled and said, "Isn't this the handsome guy with the nice voice? You're here to work out again."
Upon hearing this, Li Wei even considered wielding a knife to strike someone. Because of the fascia gun incident, he had become a "celebrity" in the gym's operations team, even though he didn't want that kind of fame at all.
However, when he returns to China, Li Wei plans to visit a gym and show off his perfect, lion-tiger-like muscles in front of those muscular hunks. Muscles aren't just about size; fitness also requires aesthetics. Some people work hard to develop large muscles, but because their genes don't give them a good shape, the final result isn't very good.
People with muscles as perfect as sculptures are ultimately a minority. Such people can usually be found among professional classical bodybuilders. This is because modern fitness, in its later stages, is all about technology. People either use drugs or equipment that is harmful to the body. Although pursuing strength and beauty is understandable, such methods will only damage one's body. Li Wei does not approve of such methods.
Li Wei walked up to Cecilia and looked at her from behind. Only then did he realize how good her figure was. Her figure, sculpted through exercise, was full of strength and beauty, a physique that most women could hardly possess.
·Requesting flowers·· ······
Of course, there's another world where there are many women with great figures. That's a world shared by all three works: Kengan Ashura, How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift?, and Kengan Omega. It's a very interesting world, and Li Wei plans to visit it sometime in the future. There aren't many opportunities to gain points or strength in that world; he simply wants to witness men risking their lives to become the "strongest." Li Wei really likes this kind of extremely manly world.
Of course, while the Baki series also focuses on a fighting world, to be honest, Li Wei really avoids the "Hot Dog Man" world. After all, there aren't many normal people in this world, and Li Wei is afraid that his art style will be ruined by this lunatic.
......
The meme of adventurer Joe William alone was enough to make Levi's scalp tingle. This thing is completely different from philosophy; it's closer to the stinky beast senpai who was ambushed in Shimokitazawa. In any case, it's quite disgusting.
Li Wei said, "The muscles in your back are fairly strong, but it's clear that you're not doing a very proper relaxation routine. The muscles are almost stiff. This is probably a common problem among European sword practitioners—overworking their back and waist."
Cecilia turned her head, glancing at Levi out of the corner of her eye, and said with some surprise, "I didn't expect you to know these things, Levi?"
Houki Shinonono, who was also lying down next to him, said, "Li Weijun himself is also skilled in European swordsmanship. He is very good at wielding a two-handed greatsword, and he can even integrate German two-handed greatsword techniques into Japanese swordsmanship to create entirely new martial arts. He is a genius in martial arts, so isn't it normal for him to have a good understanding of the human body?"
Li Wei said, "I'm not as powerful as you say, Hou. I've just seen all sorts of martial arts techniques during my long travels and learned some strange and wonderful things through exchanges with martial artists from all over the world."
Li Wei hadn't traveled extensively in this world, but his knowledge of various martial arts techniques made it incredibly easy for him to fake that he had travel experience.
Chapter 1. Real Massage
When Levi placed his hands behind her back, Cecilia didn't think there was anything wrong. But when Levi's two thumbs pressed down on the junction of her shoulder blades and spine, she suddenly felt as if her entire shoulder blades were on fire. An indescribable heat burst out from her shoulders, and at the same time, the muscles in her shoulders and back began to tremble as if she had been electrocuted.
"Ugh!!!" Cecilia gripped the sheets tightly. Although she often had her maid use a fascia gun on her muscles, the muscle relaxation effect of this massage was far more intense than that of the fascia gun, causing her to make a sound.
"Phew...so-so, not bad." Cecilia gritted her teeth and persevered. She had a certain understanding of the martial arts of Chong Kingdom and knew that martial arts masters of Chong Kingdom could quickly render unarmored enemies powerless by attacking acupoints. Such techniques were also used in medical methods such as massage and acupuncture.
In Europe, traditional Chinese acupuncture and massage clinics are quite popular. Those who know massage and acupuncture skills often enjoy many preferential conditions for immigration, as they are considered special talents and are in high demand for recruitment.
Moreover, in the real world, European learners study acupuncture in depth, and even some acupuncture techniques that have been lost in China can be found in European medical clinics. In fact, a few years ago, the Chinese government spent a considerable amount of money to exchange a lost acupuncture technique from an elderly woman of British nationality.
“This reminds me of acupuncture, but this muscle feedback is much more exaggerated than acupuncture. This soreness is just like overexertion,” Cecilia said through gritted teeth.
Li Wei said, "This is actually an advanced technique of acupuncture. The purpose of acupuncture is to achieve medical goals by stimulating acupoints. Different acupoints can produce different reactions in the human body. Ordinary acupuncture is performed because the practitioner does not have the ability to directly impact the acupoints, so silver needles or electromagnetic needles are used to achieve the goal. However, masters with internal energy can bypass such limitations and directly stimulate or deliver a fatal blow to the acupoints."
In the real world, many traditional martial arts, including those from abroad, have techniques that target pressure points. Before the ninja tradition was lost, Japanese ninjas possessed simple techniques for attacking pressure points; weapons like the ninja staff were used for this purpose. Secondly, the very rare Bone Style also has techniques for attacking pressure points (Andy from the King of Fighters series is a Bone Style user, albeit a modified version; the real Bone Style avoids kicking as much as possible, using ground-scraping kicks to maintain distance from the opponent, allowing for both offense and defense; however, using kicks means a deadly fight with no way out).
Internal energy is actually a kind of energy that is difficult to see with the naked eye. In China, it is called "qi". Practitioners of traditional martial arts in other countries have their own understanding and names for this energy. Martial artists who practice martial arts can do many things that seem incredible to ordinary people by using this power.
Take Chen Haiwang, the founder of the Unlimited Fighting Style, for example. Although people jokingly say that the style's core principles are like criminal law, the "shouting method" used in Unlimited Fighting Style to quickly enter a fighting state is actually derived from the Qi circulation method of Xin Yi He Quan (Heart-Mind Fist). It involves giving oneself a mental suggestion and then entering a highly explosive fighting state within seconds. Although it sacrifices stamina, the extremely high explosive power is enough to end a fight within minutes. Many of the disciples of this style have real-world combat experience of fighting multiple opponents or even killing several people. No one dares to say that Unlimited Fighting Style is weak. If you want to challenge this style, you should be prepared to die there.
Besides the unrestricted fighting style, there is another emerging school, the Lieyu Sect, which specializes in assassination. Its leader, Ah Zhao, is one of the world's ten strongest people. He is skilled in throwing blunt steel rods, and can smash through a person's skull as easily as eating or drinking. He is also a monster with extremely high purity who crushed the ninjas in Japan. He is jokingly called the modern-day Assassin, a real-life Bayek (the protagonist of Assassin's Creed).
These martial artists possess superhuman killing skills thanks to what they call "ki." Ki, an existence that defies scientific explanation, is the secret to the power of many martial artists. However, these days, science can't explain many things, and the existence of ki is just one of them. The double-slit experiment in physics alone is enough to shatter many people's worldviews; compared to that, ki is a drop in the ocean.
Cecilia's face was pressed directly against the sheets, her body trembling slightly. At the same time, the muscles in her back softened. As Levi used his magic to stimulate her acupoints, her muscles, which had not been able to relax completely for a long time, began to relax.
To be honest, these days, most ordinary people are in a sub-healthy state due to the pressures of life. Because of this demand for health services, even small, unknown beauty salons now have their own skilled massage therapists. Massage is especially common in pediatric treatments. For example, medication isn't very effective for neonatal colic or bloating, but pediatric massage is often very effective. All massage involves stimulating acupoints and meridians; it's really quite simple, and anyone who isn't stupid can learn it.
As Houki Shinonono watched Cecilia's condition, she swallowed hard. At the same time, she banished the lewd thoughts from her mind. Li Wei was genuinely giving them a massage; he wasn't just putting on a show.
Li Wei said, "Cecilia, I don't think you have time to practice swordsmanship right now, but the stiffness in your shoulders and neck is probably due to the IS armor. I noticed the problem when I was practicing simulated flight today. The IS armor uses segmented motion control technology. The back armament and propeller control require adjustments through the shoulders and back. High-intensity flight training, especially air combat training, keeps your shoulders and back in a state of tension for a long time, like a taut bowstring. Because of excessive tension, it loses its elasticity. This is a design flaw of the IS armor itself, which we cannot change. What we can do is adapt to this design and protect our bodies."
Cecilia turned her head to the side, glancing at Levi out of the corner of her eye, and said, "You've already noticed these problems in just one virtual training session. Are all martial arts practitioners this perceptive?"
Li Wei said, "I only have the ability to have absolute control over my own body, so I noticed the IS armor's exploitation of the human body, but I am not a technician after all, and this is all I can do."
Cecilia said, "That's amazing. It took me almost ten hours to figure that out. You're much better than me."
Cecilia wasn't just being polite; she genuinely thought Levi was amazing. Although she hadn't known Levi for very long, she found that he always managed to bring her unexpected surprises.
Chapter 1. Following Rules and Regulations
By the time the massage was over, Cecilia had a thin layer of sweat on her back, and the back of her pajamas was soaked.
Cecilia said weakly, "I'll have to take another shower later..."
Li Wei said, "I haven't done the essential oil scraping yet. With your constitution, due to the unique dietary structure of the Ying people, you have a typical internal damp-heat. I'll do the scraping for you during the holidays. The effects here are much better than those in other clinics. By then, the dampness in your body will be gone, and your condition will be much better than before. Also, training should be balanced with rest. Your constitution is not suitable for training for too long at a time. I will make a training schedule for you later."
"Okay...okay..." Cecilia lay sprawled on the bed like a salted fish, even her words were drawn out.
Li Wei said, "I'll try to help you get better later. Have you tried taking the medicine?"
Cecilia still looked weak and listless, and said, "I've tried it before, and it's very effective, very amazing."
Shinonono Houki glanced at the wall clock. During the half-hour massage, Cecilia would occasionally let out sounds that made people blush. Even Cecilia, whose tolerance was far beyond that of ordinary people, was like this. She wondered what it would be like if she were to do it herself.
Li Wei approached Shinonono Houki's side, and Shinonono Houki's voice trembled slightly as she whispered, "Li Wei-kun, could you be a little gentler? My tolerance isn't as high as Cecilia's. Besides, I've always been mindful of my body, so I don't think I need to use so much force."
Li Wei placed his hand on Houki Shinonono's shoulder blade and began to locate the acupoints. At the same time, he said, "Houki, you don't need to be so nervous. After all, I am very familiar with your training situation. And I have been giving you simple massages on a regular basis. So there is no need to go all out like Cecilia did. That was a special case for her."
Hearing Li Wei's words, Xiao Zhizhi Hou breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure on her back was not as intense as she had imagined. She didn't embarrass herself by crying out. Instead, the faint burning sensation made her feel as if there was a heat pack on her back, which was indescribably comfortable.
Li Wei said, "I will only massage your back and shoulders. For the other parts, you will have to do it yourselves. Later, I will teach you the massage techniques. The techniques are very simple and you will be able to get used to them in at most half a month."
Cecilia, watching Levi giving Houki Shinonono a massage, said with a playful smile, "I wish you could do all the other massages for me too. After all, if I do it myself, it won't be as relaxing."
Shinonono Houki thought to herself that the other party was indeed cunning. She could be lazy and get closer to Li Wei in this way. She was like a stone bird. Why wasn't she quick enough to think of such a method? Now that the other party had beaten her to it, it would be inappropriate for her to say such things.
Shinonono Houki's mind raced. She felt she could be a little more thick-skinned and learn from Cecilia next door. It was said that Western girls were passionate and bold, and very proactive in relationships. She felt that if she continued to be passive, she might be kicked out of the game. She didn't want that to happen, so she had to make a change.
Shinobu Houki said, "Cecilia makes a good point. After all, there are some massages that you can't do on your own without someone else's help. So why don't you ask Li Weijun to do it? Of course, we will also do what we can for you, consider it an exchange."
Cecilia's eyes showed slight surprise. She hadn't expected Houki Shinonono to react so quickly. However, both sides shared the same stance on this matter, and Levi's massage was truly amazing. It could eliminate even the deep-seated fatigue in the body, something that even so-called professional massage therapists couldn't do. This was something that was good for them no matter what.
Li Wei said, "I don't have any objections. Anyway, I have plenty of free time. It won't take long to help you relax your muscles and improve circulation. Besides, massage isn't suitable for every day, so it won't interfere with my work."
Both girls understood what Li Wei meant, because they weren't complete novices. They were both regular exercisers, and although their methods differed, they had a good understanding of the human body. Massage is meant to relax muscles and tendons and improve blood circulation, but faster circulation isn't always better, so massage needs to be done in moderation.
Li Wei's hand movements were very smooth, and he did not stop talking. Ten minutes passed in a flash. When Li Wei stopped, Shinonono Houki's body was covered with a fine layer of sweat.
The room was filled with the scent of a girl, creating a somewhat romantic atmosphere. In addition, Li Wei used his magic to maintain the temperature in the room, and the warm environment made people drowsy. Cecilia was already snoring softly.
Shinonono Houki gently nudged Cecilia beside her with her elbow.
Cecilia wasn't sleeping soundly; she reacted when I touched her lightly.
"Is it over?" Cecilia rubbed her eyes and got up, sitting on the bed in a duck-like position, stretching and yawning, making cat-like purring sounds.
Li Wei hadn't given a girl a proper massage like this in a long time. After all, on the floating island, whether it was the massage he gave to his partner or the massage his partner gave him, it was all very erotic, nothing like this simple massage.
Li Wei said, "Get a good rest tonight. There are only girls up there, so I won't be able to take you up."
Cecilia said, "Levi, you're being too conservative. Don't you know how popular you are with the girls? If you're willing to go up there, no one will say anything. And even if someone does say something, the others will shut her up."
Li Wei said, "Isn't this just school bullying?"
