[You have passively completed an intense training session.]

[You absorbed the Resentful Energy from the opponent. Your Calamity Iron reserves: 2.2%→1.9%, Edibility: 5.8%→6.1%.]

Yuan Xidi slowly removed the bloodstained bandage, revealing his fists covered in scars old and new, while showing Feng Mu a wide smile.

The curve of his lips was his final stubbornness, silently speaking of the resilience as an elder brother.

Feng Mu's arms and body were also splattered with blood, with bruises hidden under his clothes, and a thin, long cut at the edge of his eyebrow.

However, he was indifferent to these injuries. He simply treated the wound and returned Yuan Xidi's smile warmly. His smile showed no stubbornness, only sincerity.

Yuan Xidi looked at Feng Mu's smiling face, still dripping with blood from the edge of his eye, and couldn't help but twitch his mouth, thinking to himself: "Why is this little junior brother happier than I am after being used as an Iron Man Post by me? Could it be that the little junior brother has a peculiar masochistic tendency?"

Maintaining outward calm, Yuan Xidi slowly turned and left.

As Feng Mu watched Yuan Xidi's departing figure, the smile on his face gradually faded, and he frowned slightly:

"Today's Calamity Iron edibility only increased by 0.3%, clearly less than before. Could it be that the Resentful Energy in Fourth Senior Brother is thinning?"

Feng Mu thought, "It seems I can't just milk Fourth Senior Brother dry; I need to give him time to replenish his Resentful Energy for his own sake too."

"It's a pity that the other senior brothers and sisters are too lazy. Every time I ask to spar, I'm met with various excuses, which is truly frustrating. The atmosphere of the [Ronggui Sect] needs some reform."

While Feng Mu was secretly sighing, Hong Ya bounced over cheerfully.

She leaped onto the stage and took a bottle of generic spray from her pocket.

She gently pressed the nozzle and sprayed evenly over the stage bloodstains.

Instantly, as if touched by magic, the bloodstains evaporated into steam, leaving the stage cleaner and tidier than if it had been meticulously mopped.

Hong Ya clapped her hands in satisfaction, walked behind Feng Mu, tied her hair into two playful buns with a serious expression, and began her training.

Feng Mu turned his head and glanced at Hong Ya: "Little Senior Sister is fairly diligent; she shouldn't refuse to spar with me, but... it's better not."

After all, during every [team-building] activity, Little Senior Sister mostly took on the heavy task of cleaning, with few chances to actually score KOs, lacking much Resentful Energy on her.

Feng Mu, being pure-hearted, was afraid of accidentally draining Little Senior Sister dry.

"After all, I still need to get to the prison soon. That's my paradise; for me, it's like a mouse jumping into a granary, where I can feast away. No, no, how could I describe myself as a mouse?!"

Feng Mu's heart filled with anticipation, his eyes became dazed,

"I wonder when the prison will confirm that I'm the last job applicant left, come on, pick up the efficiency."

Hong Ya raised an eyebrow and glanced with authority: "Why are you looking at me?"

Feng Mu snapped out of it and smiled: "Little Senior Sister has started training too, so won't there be no one watching the front desk of the dojo?"

Hong Ya answered nonchalantly: "Big Senior Brother is on break today. I've already asked him to keep an eye on the front desk for me."

Feng Mu gently acknowledged with an "oh," but couldn't help imagining Li Bashan's robust figure, like a small mountain, sitting at the front desk. He whispered to himself:

"If the dojo recruits even one new customer today, it truly would be the manifestation of ancestral blessing."

There's no way the ancestors would manifest a blessing, because sitting at the front desk, with furrowed brows, Li Bashan is contemplating digging up the ancestral grave.

The only problem is he doesn't know where the ancestral grave is buried, but it's alright. He's already enlisted the help of Old Five to hack into the government's "burial registration system" to find out.

Feng Mu was unconcerned about such matters; he snapped back to reality and immersed himself wholeheartedly into focused training.

[You are immersed in selfless training!]

Time quietly slipped away....

After dinner, Hong Ya felt her energy running low, but seeing the still spirited and focused training of her little junior brother, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to persist.

Four hours later, Hong Ya returned to her bedroom with an exhausted body and mind.

She fell onto the bed, almost immediately sinking into a deep sleep.

As expected, she was plagued by nightmares, all centered around training scenes.

At midnight, it was again the most exhilarating moment of the day for Feng Mu. He downed a bottle of "latte" and decided to mainly focus on "Body Forging Exercise" in the upcoming hours.

It was as if time had flowed back, returning to that first night when he activated "Iron Eater," and he practiced "Body Forging Exercise" just like this.

Now, he no longer needed to follow the rhythm of a video, managing his pace freely as he performed the "Body Forging Exercise" slowly and powerfully.

Though his muscles and bones still felt a little stiff, the flexibility of his muscles and joints had significantly improved, making the practice of the "Body Forging Exercise" no longer as arduous as before.

[You are practicing Body Forging Exercise!]

[Your internal pig iron reserves continue to decrease↓, while edibility continues to increase↑]

[You have practiced the Body Forging Exercise for an hour!]

[You have practiced the Body Forging Exercise for two hours!]

[You have practiced the Body Forging Exercise for three hours!]

Suddenly, two icons appeared in the skills panel.

[Body Forging Exercise: Beginner (1/300)]

[Body Forging Exercise: Blood and Flesh Three Solutions: Beginner (1/300)]

In practicing the Body Forging Exercise, Feng Mu specifically avoided the assistance of the Blood and Flesh Initial Solution's true power, adhering strictly to the bone edition skill to prevent [Body Forging Exercise] from prematurely advancing to beginner level.

However, despite his poor root bone aptitude, he ultimately confirmed the old saying - practice makes perfect.

With relentless effort, the [Body Forging Exercise] icon finally broke through.

Just as the entry of the blood and flesh version would trigger a linkage to replicate a bone version skill, creating the bone version skill also cleverly tricked the system, naturally spawning a corresponding twin blood and flesh version icon.

Feng Mu always knew: the hardship of Body Forging Exercise was key to accelerating the digestion rate of pig iron.

And now, with the initiation of Body Forging Exercise, he realized that under the power of the system, the difficulty of [Body Forging Exercise] would decrease.

"Doesn't this mean the digestion speed of pig iron will slow?!!"

Feng Mu's face instantly turned ashen. For the first time, he deeply felt that the system's aid wasn't entirely positive; sometimes it might be a stumbling block.

Taking a deep breath, Feng Mu devoted himself even more to the Body Forging Exercise.

He could only hope that the digestion rate of the pig iron wouldn't decrease excessively to avoid impacting his iron consumption progress too much.

With every precise movement, he silently completed a full exercise of the Body Forging Exercise.

Upon finishing the set, Feng Mu's expression suddenly became exceptionally brilliant!!!
