Maron picked up the food container and shoved the strengthened meat into his mouth.

“David, why isn’t it Level-1 strengthened meat? The results of strengthened meat from larvae are too poor!” he complained to David while eating.

“Maron, you could have brought your own Level-1 strengthened meat. Don’t say such things while eating my food!” David retorted in displeasure.

“You’re right! I’m going to call home and get them to send over some Level 1 strengthened meat!” Maron said with a smile, his eyes lighting up.

David shook his head. He could tell that Maron was just trying to use those words to have the Level 1 strengthened meat delivered to David’s residence without making his host lose face.

In fact, if not for fear of exposure, the credit points that David now had in hands were more than enough for him to buy some Level 1 strengthened meat for cultivation. However, since Maron had taken the initiative and offered to send some over, he decided to take him up on the offer and consider the meat as Maron’s lesson fees. 

Anyway, it was just peanuts to Maron, the heir of an official.

“David, it’s your turn!” Galen instructed, having waited for the two to end their conversation.

“Yes, Uncle Galen!” David responded with a nod. 

He was actually very excited to do it and intended for Galen to give him some pointers.

He walked to the center of the gym and stood still, after which he activated all of his power, a wisp of heat emitting from his body. 

Maron did not feel anything, but the bright-eyed Galen stared at David with a deadly gaze. 

His 99% Beginner eighteen movements of Bodywork was already the most extreme level that a non-armorer could reach. Those who could reach the Intermediate level before becoming an armorer were considered monsters.

Galen had not expected to meet a teenager who was on the verge of a breakthrough in Bodywork, especially in a small place like Pelan City. On top of that, the teenager was the child of his close friend. 

“Damn it Hans, how blind are you? A genius like your son only has 600 kilograms of strength because he doesn’t have the proper resources! If he had those resources, he would have become an armorer by now!” Galen muttered to himself as he watched David begin practicing the eighteen movements of Bodywork.

The reason that Galen said that was because the eighteen movements of Bodywork were the foundation for everything else. Once one had improved in Bodywork, their physique would improve as well. 

In Galen’s opinion, David’s current issue was the lack of resources, as his consumption could not keep up with his improvement. Hence, David could only continuously practice Bodywork to make its level exceed the rate of growth of his physique.

However, the vast majority of people were unable to improve their eighteen movements of Bodywork, causing their bodies to be overloaded with energy. As a result, their physiques could not continue to grow.

Maron was a typical example. Although he had sufficient resources, he could not go further because of the eighteen movements of Bodywork. 

David was still continuing to practice Bodywork, going through all eighteen movements one by one, slowly and firmly. Each movement came with a surge of heat, which was the manifestation of the mobilization of a large number of body functions. It could be said that the consumption required for each movement was double that of Maron’s.

Hence, David was drenched in sweat and his physical strength was depleting rapidly. 

By the time the tenth movement began, his movements had slowed down. 

Galen turned and a shadow appeared beside David. The rapid speed made Maron feel as if he had seen a phantom. 

David’s physical strength could still support the movements, but due to the fact that he had to try his best to ensure that his muscles and bones were coordinated, he had no choice but to slow down his movements. However, after slowing down, he began to find that the difficulty of performing the eighteen movements of Bodywork had increased.

The fourteenth movement was the limit David had previously reached. His body began to tremble slightly, feeling as if he would fail at any moment.

At this moment, Galen smacked David’s body, and when he felt that his muscles and skeletons were out of control, he managed to control his coordination successfully. 

He managed to perform the fourteenth movement, after which he instinctively continued practicing the fifteenth movement.

A strange expression appeared on Galen’s face, as he had thought that David’s body would not be able to support the movements any further. He thought that the fourteenth movement was David’s limit. However, that didn’t seem to be the case, as David continued to practice the fifteenth movement.

Similarly, as soon as he began to perform the fifteenth movement, David’s muscles and bones once again started to go out of control. Galen had long prepared for it, and as soon as David’s muscles and bones started acting up, he would smack David on the spot that he had lost control, which allowed him to continue.

David proceeded with the sixteenth movement, followed by the seventeenth, and lastly, the eighteenth movement.

The moment David finished practicing the entire set, he broke out into a full body sweat, as if he had come out of a steam room. 

Galen waved his hand as a suction force was emitted from his hand, after which the food container that was placed on the floor flew towards his hand.

“David, hurry and take a big bite!” he said as he opened the food container and handed it to David.

David’s body was so empty and drained at this point that he felt he could swallow a cow.

He didn’t care about the amount of strengthened meat in the container, directly shoveling the strengthened meat into his mouth with great force.

Fortunately, his body was extremely powerful, and his chewing abilities were very strong. He chewed the strengthened meat a few times with his strong teeth before swallowing it. 

Waves of heat flowed from his abdomen to all parts of his body, the heat continuing to fill the void within his body.

David felt that he had never tasted such delicious strengthened meat before. However, he had soon finished all the strengthened meat in his food container.

“You have such a huge appetite!” Maron muttered under his breath as he handed David his own food container, which still contained nine servings of strengthened meat because he had only eaten one of them. 

David was also surprised by the amount of food he had eaten. He remembered that there were ten servings of strengthened meat in the food container. Even though his consumption had increased greatly recently, he had only been able to consume three servings at a time.

However, he felt that his body was in need of food right now. Hence, he did not stand on ceremony and grabbed the food container to continue eating. 

In just two minutes, David finished all the strengthened meat, only then feeling a burst of satisfaction, as a large amount of heat flowed from his abdomen to all parts of his body, filling his body with a sense of comfort.

“David, take a break before you practice the eighteen movements of Bodywork again!” Galen instructed as the strange look in his eyes intensified.

“Uncle Galen, now that David is in this state, should we wait for the Level-1 strengthened meat to arrive before continuing?” Maron couldn’t help but suggest as he looked at the two empty food containers.

“It’s alright, David has achieved a breakthrough in Bodywork and a boost in his physique,” Galen said as he waved his hand.

After David ate the two boxes of strengthened meat and allowed his body to digest it, he no longer felt weak. Instead, he was filled with power and felt like exploding. 

Hence, when Galen suggested that he practice the eighteen movements of Bodywork again, he stood up immediately and began doing so without needing any rest. 

This time, David felt an obvious difference. When he began performing the first of the eighteen movements of Bodywork, he felt relaxed and at ease. Previously, he had to deliberately control his muscles and bones to coordinate them with the eighteen movements of Bodywork. However, now he was using the muscles and bones of his entire body to actively push the progress of the eighteen movements of Bodywork.

Maron was looking at him with his eyes wide open. He did not quite understand the Bodywork that he had just seen, but after seeing David practice it again, he clearly understood what it meant. 

There was a huge gap between the Beginner level and Intermediate level of Bodywork, which represented the gap between an armorer and an ordinary person. One could only reach the Intermediate level when their strength reached a thousand kilograms, which was thrice that of an ordinary person.

When he thought about how he had been showing off to David with his Beginner level Bodywork, Maron’s face turned red as he felt a burning sensation. 

Galen watched David practice each movement one at a time, thinking about the gift that he had given David previously. At this point, helping him get admitted into Nan University was just a joke.

Since he could reach the Intermediate level of Bodywork as a non-armorer, Nan University would make an exception and accept him even if he was lacking in other aspects. That was the basic preferential treatment for prodigies.

Other than Nan University, other universities would also do their best to recruit David if they knew about his situation.

David finished practicing the eighteen movements of Bodywork, the nineteen servings of strengthened meat that he had eaten no longer emanating heat. He felt much stronger than he ever had before. If it wasn’t for the presence of Galen and Maron, he would have immediately gotten the Shadow Servant to come over and switch on the attribute panel for him.
