Chapter 3 Staying up late is equal to cultivating immortality

At night, in a dark cabin.

Bai Ye put his hands on the ground and did push-ups together.

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

After reaching 50 reps, his ups and downs began to slow down, and the soreness in his muscles gradually came, but he was overcome by his will, and he completed push-ups mechanically in a standard posture.

After reaching the 62nd position, Bai Ye, who couldn't hold on anymore, let go of his hands and fell to the ground, breathing while opening the panel.

Compared with during the day, there are now more than a dozen different types of exercise methods on the instruction column.

Description column:

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

You completed a total of 89 bodyweight push-ups...

You completed a bodyweight squat for a total of 103 reps...

You completed it once...

Looking at the long list of instructions, Bai Ye smiled with satisfaction. After all, these were all the results of his hard work in a day.

'At the current pace, with all the various exercise methods added up, my physical strength will increase to about 1.2 in less than a week. I still feel a little tired. ’

‘Forget it, let’s try to exercise hard for a year anyway, and go to the gym to apply for a card tomorrow. ’

‘During this year, I will put aside my studies for a while. If it doesn’t work out, I can only accept the fact that I am an ordinary person and repeat my studies for another year. ’

He sat up from the ground again. Even though he was very tired, he still kneaded the muscles on his arms. After exercising, if he didn't massage them properly, the soreness in the muscles would teach him how to behave the next day.

After a simple massage, Bai Ye glanced at the time on the wall and saw that it was already 10 p.m.

After washing up casually, Bai Ye lay back on the bed. Feeling that his body's physical strength had almost reached its limit, he slowly closed his eyes and would soon fall asleep.

But before he was about to fall asleep, he opened his eyes suddenly because he thought of a very important question.

‘If I stay up late, does that count as a mental exercise? No matter what, let me stay up with it for the night and I'll find out tomorrow by reading the instructions. ’

Thinking of this, Bai Ye, who was extremely sleepy, forced himself to open his eyes. With the moonlight streaming in from the window, he got out of bed and started exercising with his exhausted body. He managed to stay up for five hours despite being exhausted.

Finally, at four o'clock in the morning the next day, Bai Ye couldn't bear it anymore and passed out.

The moment before he lost consciousness, a new prompt appeared in his description column.

Description column:

You completed a continuous activity with a total duration of 21 hours, 13 minutes and 12 seconds, repeated 954 times. Your body suffered long-term damage of 3.21%, and it can recover on its own when your physical fitness reaches 1.5.

The will consumption is 96.7%, the will limit is increased by 32%, repeated 3 times, the mental limit can be increased by 0.1

At twelve o'clock the next morning, Bai Ye regained consciousness from his deep sleep.

I got up from the ground, rubbed my swollen brain, opened the properties panel, and was immediately shocked by the status display on the description column.

This level of strength is simply unheard of. No wonder staying up late is called cultivating immortality. It turns out that staying up all night can really make you stronger.

‘Isn’t it okay to just stay up for 21 hours yesterday? Then try to stay up for 25 hours today. ’ Bai Ye made up his mind, and after a simple wash, he opened the refrigerator.

If you want to have a good body, eating while exercising is naturally essential.

There are all kinds of foods in the refrigerator. Eating these is equivalent to directly ingesting all the nutrients needed by the human body, including proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and vitamins.

All of these were purchased by Bai Ye after school yesterday.

Moreover, while taking into account the nutritional value of the food purchased by Bai Ye, he also tried to pay a higher price to buy food that had similar nutritional intake but better taste than low-priced food.

In his opinion, suffering through exercise is for a better life in the future, but if you endure hardship for the sake of suffering, isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

So as long as there is no shortage of money and it does not affect the efficiency of exercise, he will naturally not treat himself badly.

‘But wouldn’t eating unpalatable food and being hungry all the time have a better effect on mental exercise? After all, straining your muscles and bones and starving your body is also a kind of training of your will. ’ Bai Ye guessed in his mind as he chewed the expensive food in his hand bit by bit.

Looking at the delicious and delicious food in his hands, Bai Ye hesitated for a moment, then continued to take a big bite.

He could accept the pain caused by regular exercise, but if eating shit was considered exercise and could make him stronger, then he would rather not get stronger.

After spending a few minutes filling his hungry body, Bai Ye tidied up the environment, got up and walked outside the house. It was time to put the gym on the agenda.

Today is Friday, and it is school time, but I have asked for leave from the school in advance yesterday. Plus Saturday and Sunday, three days should be enough to increase the mental attribute to 0.1.

I searched for the nearest gym on my phone, and after briefly browsing the reviews of a dozen gyms within five kilometers, Bai Ye fell in love with a gym called Mains.

The reason why I chose this one is because it is a well-known chain brand among gyms. It has been operating locally for seven or eight years and has a good reputation around it. In theory, the risk of running away should not be too great.

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

On the street, Bai Ye kept sprinting towards his goal. Then he was a little surprised to find that although the muscles in his body were still sore, compared to yesterday, his pace was lighter and his running was easier today.

The pace was obviously more compact than yesterday, but it wasn't until around the 400m that his breathing started to become a little disordered.

Although the value on the panel was not shown, he could clearly feel that his physical fitness had changed significantly in just one day.

Description column:

You completed a run with a total distance of 1824 meters and an average pace of 4 minutes and 17 seconds/km. Repeated 5670 times, your body suffered 0.12% long-term damage and can recover on its own when your physical fitness reaches 1.5.

Repeat 94 times to increase the upper limit of strength by 0.1

Repeat 42 times to increase the upper limit of physical fitness by 0.1

Repeat 132 times to increase the mental limit by 0.1

When Bai Ye stood in front of the gym and compared the numbers shown on the explanation column yesterday and today, a sense of satisfaction that the hard work was rewarded emerged spontaneously.

Yesterday I ran an exhausting two kilometers and had to repeat it 365 times to increase my energy by 0.1. However, today I ran an easier 1.8 kilometers only 132 times, which was a direct reduction of nearly 60%.

This step-by-step but obvious process of becoming stronger began to fascinate him.
