BXBX NOVEL Chapter 355 354: Yoze, Are You Sure Your Human?
"So your muscles are just sore. Don\'t worry. After you recover somewhat, I will help you get some food in your system so we can begin round two." Yoze said with a smile.
To make sure that Evi didn\'t accidentally die, Yoze laid him on his side so that if he threw up at any point, he wouldn\'t drown. With that settled and Evi staring at him as if he were a monster, Yoze continued his own training.
"Did you need to go so hard on the first day!? I wasn\'t mentally prepared." Evi thought to himself as he claimed on the ground helplessly.
He had known that training in martial arts was extremely difficult, but he hadn\'t expected it to be this difficult. Even though Yoze had praised him, Evi didn\'t take it seriously since he would have preferred the ability to move.
"Wow, is this the full power of the Boneless Man body cultivation method? He looks like he doesn\'t have any bones. No, that isn\'t correct. It\'s more like he is made out of water." Evi\'s eyes widened from shock, if they could have moved, as he watched Yoze train.
His body was twisted up like a complicated knot, and his limbs seemed to be in places that should have been impossible for the human body.
"How is he doing a handstand, splits, the twisted floor bow pose, and the crane pose all at the same time!? We really are not on the same level at all!"
As Evi watched Yoze do poses that shouldn\'t be possible, he felt a fire burning in his heart. He didn\'t want to be left behind.
After not seeing his best friend in nearly five years, they seemed to have gone down two completely different paths. He had decided to follow the traditional path for scholars\' and worked his butt off for numerous years only to not do much.
Yet, Yoze, through numerous twists and turns, was able to transform himself into a Super Scholar who represented the peak of humanity. Even though Yoze had only told him that he had only become a second-rate Blood Master recently, Evi felt deep in his heart that no one in the world could beat him.
"I can\'t allow myself to keep falling behind. I need to get up and work hard. It doesn\'t matter if I don\'t have talent. I simply have to put in ten, no, a hundred times more effort!"
"As long as there is a will, there is a way. No matter how long it takes me, I will catch up to you, Yoze!" Evi\'s eyes flashed with determination as he pushed himself to get up.
Even though his muscles were responding initially, after some time, he started to regain some feeling in his finger. Using that limited amount of sensation as motivation, Evi soon found himself standing up on his two feet.
"Oh, you are up. Go eat the food I had prepared beforehand, and come back and train with me." Yoze said casually.
He was impressed by Evi\'s willpower since most people would not be capable of doing such a thing. Even most martial artists would not have enough willpower to be able to force their bodies to move when they were completely exhausted.
"I did make the right choice." Yoze thought to himself as he turned his focus back on his training.
Though Yoze wanted to praise Evi for his mental strength, he knew that it wouldn\'t be productive to do so. Not only would it make Evi feel that he was belittling him, but it might break his determination to train.
As an addict to training himself, Yoze knew that nothing felt better than the feeling of improving on your own. This was especially true when it defied others\' expectations.
Since he wanted Evi to become strong in both a physical and mental sense, he would do his best to inspire Evi. Still, he would make sure not to go too hard, or it might have the opposite effect. For now, he only needed to focus on his own training.
[Boneless Man (Level 5: 6%)]
After breaking through Boneless Man\'s limit three times, his progress slowed down. He predicted that with his current pace, it would take him around two months before he could attempt to break through its limits again.
However, he had high expectations for when he broke through as he sensed that all his Boneless Man inner vigor was activated. He could no longer turn it off, just like what had happened with his Big Golem inner vigor.
This was one of the reasons he decided to start Evi\'s training with the Boneless Man body cultivation method. He didn\'t want to constantly be a rubber man who could stretch and twist his body in inhuman ways.
The other remaining reasons were quite simple. Boneless Man was a good body cultivation method that was easy to understand, didn\'t require any additional resources, and was high-level enough that he could easily modify it to fit his needs.
For training beginners in martial arts, Boneless Man didn\'t require much understanding, so even people who lacked talent in Martial Art Comprehension would have no trouble practicing it. In their eyes, Boneless Man was just a more advanced version of yoga.
But most importantly, he was able to break through the limits of Boneless Man more than three times and pushed this simple body cultivation method to levels its creator would have thought impossible. He deeply understood Boneless Man, which allowed him to know the most optimal training method.
Just like he had told Evi, he had modified the Boneless Man he was teaching Evi to be far more efficient when it comes to making progress. Even if Evi didn\'t have any talent, he would be able to reach the peak of the first level in a month.
Unfortunately, a similar situation to today was bound to happen at least ten times a day. So if Evi\'s willpower wasn\'t strong enough to handle the pain and not having any feeling in his muscles and bones, they would, unfortunately, have to slow down.
Luckily, there seemed to be no reason for him to worry as he sensed the determined Evi walk beside him. He was in a much better state than before after eating a few pounds of demon meat and guzzling some water.
"I am ready to begin training again!" Evi looked at Yoze\'s body and felt a cold chill crawl through his spine.
Though he wanted to train like Yoze, he knew that he hadn\'t yet reached that level, and if he tried, the only thing that would result from it was losing his ability to have kids in the future.
"Of course, let me untangle myself real quick, and I can help you adjust your posture from before." Although Yoze\'s body was tangled to the point that people would have thought a psychopath had murdered him. His voice didn\'t sound too strained.
At most, he was a little tired.
After detangling himself in less than a second, he stood above Evi, a little sweaty, and grabbed the back of Evi\'s shoulders. They were a little stiff, so he began to massage them.
"Ahhh, this feels quite good. Where did you learn how to give massages like this? I have never felt so relaxed." Evi\'s voice began to slur as he felt all his sore muscles quickly relaxing.
"It is a simple combination of talent and having extensive knowledge of the body. Though I never learned the proper way to do massages, it isn\'t hard to figure it out with some practice." Yoze said slowly as he picked apart Evi\'s body with ease.
For their next round, he needed Evi to be relaxed. If he didn\'t, he might accidentally tear something he shouldn\'t.
"Okay, that is good enough. Evi, can you do me a favor and relax your lower body? For this round, we will be working on your splits."
"Okay," Out of habit and due to him being fully committed to learning, Evi hastily relaxed his lower body before suddenly feeling a powerful force pushing him down.
Before Evi realized it, he found that his butt was only a few millimeters above the ground, with his legs spread apart. With Yoze\'s help and his relaxed body, he had reached a level of splits that only professional gymnastics could do.
This feat was even more impressive when he considered that he had never done the splits before.
"Yoze, I\'m scared."
"Don\'t worry the adrenaline is going to delay the pain." Yoze patted Evi\'s head, proud that he could see his friend\'s first major split pose.
"With the small amount of time left, I am going to push you further down so you can complete a full split. Are you ready?"
"I don\'t think so," Evi muttered in utter shock.
"Don\'t think about it too much. The human body is capable of such feats. It is all in the mind. So I am going to get started."
"Wait!"
