Chapter 7

Since that day, Bai Shi no longer mentioned anything about casually treating Ayano to a meal.

Because that could mean he would go bankrupt.

This girl's appetite, I, Bai Shi from Qianye, am willing to call her the strongest!

Time passed slowly, day by day.

Due to the ramen incident, the relationship among the three of them grew much closer.

After all, they had the deep friendship of eating ramen together.

Bai Shi's performance in class remained unremarkable; compared to his two genius classmates, his grades could only be described as average.

Another month passed in the blink of an eye.

During this month, Bai Shi and Ayano's relationship grew closer, but his relationship with Ruri grew even more rapidly.

Of course, it was a very pure friendship.

After all, Ruri was the only one who knew about his hidden true strength. If he were to display his true strength, he could definitely rank in the top three in the class.

The reason for the rapid improvement in his relationship with Ruri was that Ruri often sought out Bai Shi after school to engage in physical skill exchanges.

These physical skill exchanges left both Bai Shi and Ruri extremely satisfied with each other's superb techniques.

Although Bai Shi had little combat experience, he could learn from Ruri. Ruri had a private tutor from the Uchiha clan who taught her combat techniques, and she passed these techniques on to Bai Shi, allowing him to gradually approach her combat level and verify their growth together.

Bai Shi's growth, however, was beyond Ruri's expectations.

As she delved deeper into her interactions with Bai Shi, she found herself gradually unable to suppress him. She estimated that before long, he would turn the tables and completely overpower her.

This was something that the genius Uchiha Ruri found hard to tolerate.

She, who received combat training from elite clan members every week, had been overtaken by a boy she had always dominated in just one or two months. This tarnished her reputation as a Uchiha genius.

Therefore, she had to regain the initiative and put him back under her control.

To restore the glory of the Uchiha clan.

"Why has your strength grown so quickly?"

Ruri asked, voicing her inner doubts.

In her view, Bai Shi must have some secret to rapidly increase his strength.

Otherwise, a civilian with no one to teach him could not maintain the same rate of strength growth as her.

Or, the problem was with Bai Shi himself.

"Hmm?" Bai Shi was slightly taken aback and said, "I've just been training systematically."

"That's impossible. If that were the case, you couldn't have grown so fast. You must be hiding something."

"I really am not."

"Is that so?"

Ruri still looked at Bai Shi with a suspicious gaze.

"Yes, I've just been training according to my own methods."

Bai Shi said seriously.

He really wasn't hiding anything.

Ruri had taught him so many combat techniques, and he was very grateful. Without Ruri, his strength would not have grown so quickly.

"Your methods?"

Ruri found a blind spot.

"Yes, I have a customized scientific training regimen that can effectively improve my dynamic vision and neural response."

Bai Shi answered honestly.

"Can you show me that scientific regimen?"

Hearing Ruri's request, Bai Shi did not refuse. If it were someone else, he would have to think about it, but his rapid growth in strength was also due to Ruri's assistance.

Treating others with sincerity, Bai Shi certainly couldn't be stingy.

He took out a small notebook from his ninja tool bag and placed it in Ruri's hands.

His scientific training regimen was recorded in this notebook.

Ruri opened it and read it carefully, her expression becoming increasingly strange as she read on.

Because it was too ordinary.

Most of the training methods Bai Shi wrote down were not secrets; many were known to Ruri. Some of the more unusual training methods were unfamiliar to her.

Can you really get stronger by training according to this?

A big question mark appeared in Ruri's mind.

Bai Shi knew Ruri had doubts because his customized training regimen, when combined, was not particularly difficult. Some parts were a bit challenging, but most were straightforward and easy to understand.

However, Bai Shi knew this was the most scientifically sound training regimen for the human body.

But compared to these scientific training methods, Bai Shi felt that the chakra in this world was truly incredible.

Why can chakra turn into fire, lightning, and storms? These were all very interesting aspects.

Compared to the wonders of chakra, Bai Shi felt his scientific training regimen was like child's play.

This scientific training method was merely to enhance Bai Shi's dynamic vision and neural reflexes, as well as maintain his body's flexibility and resistance to impact.

Compared to the mysterious energy of chakra, it was indeed unremarkable.

Ruri's doubts, Bai Shi could understand.

"If I train according to this scientific regimen, will I also grow stronger as quickly as you?"

This was what Ruri was concerned about.

"This... it's a bit hard to say. This regimen is adjusted based on my physical growth, and I basically change it every month."

Bai Shi said.

Ruri nodded in understanding.

What suits Bai Shi may not suit her.

So, Ruri looked at him seriously and said, "Create a training regimen tailored for me."

She wanted to test whether Bai Shi's method was truly effective.

"It's possible... but..."

Bai Shi scratched his head awkwardly, a bit embarrassed to speak.

"What? You don't want to?"

Ruri's clear eyes immediately turned dangerous, flashing with a fierce light.

"Ah, it's not that. It's just that to create a scientific training regimen tailored for someone else, I need to understand their physical... ahem, in simpler terms, I need to start from their actual condition and be realistic... only by understanding their physical condition can I tailor a regimen for you..."

Bai Shi's eyes suddenly became unnatural, glancing at Ruri's petite body and then quickly looking away as if afraid.

Really, he wasn't a pervert, nor was he interested in such things.

"..."

Ruri's cold face suddenly flushed.

She understood the hidden meaning in Bai Shi's words.

Ruri took a deep breath, looking at Bai Shi with icy eyes, as if she were looking at a dead man.

"Come and touch me."

"Ah? Okay! Wait, no, what did you just say? Touch... touch what?"

Bai Shi was dumbfounded.

He thought Ruri would back down, but she said this.

"Come and touch me quickly! If you touch anything else, you're dead!"

She threatened Bai Shi fiercely.

Bai Shi felt he would be killed in the past.

...

In the end, Bai Shi still created a scientific training regimen tailored for Ruri.

Before leaving, Ruri said that if this training regimen was ineffective, she would make him die a real physiological death!
