Li Xiangdong hurriedly entered the bathroom, took a shower, and came out to stand in front of the full-length mirror. He began to examine his body.
The originally frail and weak body was gone. After three years of training at the sports school, he hadn't seen much muscle development, but now he could see that his torso was covered with well-defined muscles. Although they weren't as bulky as those of bodybuilders, the muscle lines were very masculine and beautiful, and even his facial structure had become more angular and masculine.
Although he still looked like the same Li Xiangdong, his spirit and energy were completely different from before.
Li Xiangdong waved his arm, feeling a surge of strength in his muscles, and this strength gave him an extraordinary sense of confidence.
Sports enthusiasts know that Chinese people have always had a certain gap in physical fitness compared to Caucasians and Africans. This gap is mainly due to the difference in muscle types between us Asians and Caucasians and Africans.
Human muscle types are mainly divided into two categories: white muscle and red muscle.
White muscle has strong explosive power and good anaerobic endurance. People with a higher proportion of white muscle have very strong explosive power, making them suitable for various sports that require explosive power, such as sprinting, boxing, and even martial arts.
Red muscle, on the other hand, has poor anaerobic endurance but good static strength. People with this muscle type are more suitable for long-distance running or weightlifting, and they are not very suitable for martial arts.
Caucasians and Africans have a relatively higher proportion of white muscle, especially Africans, who have the highest proportion of white muscle. Therefore, they have strong explosive power and are suitable for various sports.
Asians, however, have a higher proportion of red muscle, which puts them at a disadvantage in sports that require strong physical confrontation.
In other words, no matter how much Asians train in martial arts, they are at a certain disadvantage compared to Caucasians or Africans, especially in physical confrontation.
Moreover, the innate ratio of white muscle to red muscle cannot be changed through training, so we are at a natural disadvantage in this aspect.
However, things are not absolute. Red muscle is also divided into two types: slow-twitch red muscle and fast-twitch red muscle. Fast-twitch red muscle combines the advantages of white muscle and red muscle. The most important thing is that this type of muscle can be converted through training.
This type of fast-twitch red muscle is the most highly recommended muscle type by all Far Eastern experts, and they hope that many athletes will have this type of muscle.
It combines the advantages of red muscle and white muscle. White muscle has strong explosive power but needs a long time to recover after a strong burst, otherwise, it can easily lead to muscle strain if there are multiple bursts in a short time.
Red muscle, on the other hand, has poor explosive power but good endurance. Fast-twitch red muscle combines the advantages of both types of muscle without their disadvantages, making it the ideal muscle type for sports experts.
However, this muscle type can only be converted through training before the age of 20, before the body's growth and development are complete. It requires special training methods and specific dietary conditions to form.
Originally, someone Li Xiangdong's age would have no chance of developing this type of muscle, but unexpectedly, after his body was refined by the bear soul essence, most of his muscles turned into this type.
This shows the power of the Fa cultivation school. Just a few animal bloodlines and soul essences, refined through magic, could transform Li Xiangdong, who was weak a few days ago, into a completely new person.
This transformation not only produced a large amount of fast-twitch red muscle in Li Xiangdong's body but also evolved nearly a quarter of his red muscle into white muscle. These white muscle cells are not the same as ordinary white muscle cells; they are super white muscle cells with explosive power that ordinary people can hardly imagine. This muscle type transformation came from the African cheetah.
The cheetah is the fastest mammal on this planet, known for its strong explosive power.
Now that Li Xiangdong has the cheetah's speed, how could he lack strong white muscle?
In short, Li Xiangdong is now a physically abnormal devil muscle man. Although he doesn't look as intimidating as a bodybuilder, the strength in his body is no less than that of a bodybuilder, and his explosive power is even stronger.
These are the benefits brought by the bear soul and cheetah soul!
Li Xiangdong came out of the bathroom and looked out the window. It was a sunny and pleasant day.
His gaze extended, and he looked up at the roof, where he saw two swallows flying around their nest under the eaves.
Li Xiangdong held his breath and focused. The flight paths of the two swallows suddenly slowed down in his eyes, and he could clearly see the trajectory of each wing flap.
He succeeded, and Li Xiangdong felt a surge of joy.
After taking the beast pill and breaking through the first level of the "Sole Emperor" technique, he felt a sense of rebirth. For example, he could now clearly see the flight paths and wing flaps of the swallows, as if they were in slow motion. This is the benefit of the muscle transformation and physical enhancement he gained from the beast pills.
Ordinary people can't even see the trajectory of a swallow's wing flaps, let alone follow its flight path. This is the benefit of the eagle's vision. Eagles have the best vision in the world; a rabbit running at high speed on the ground at a height of one kilometer appears in slow motion to them. Now, after being transformed by the eagle soul, Li Xiangdong also has this eagle vision.
While his eyes watched the swallows, his ears could hear any sound within dozens of meters outside the door, and his nose could smell the flowers in the front yard. Closing his eyes and focusing, it was as if a net suddenly appeared in the world, covering hundreds of meters. Any sound within this range could not escape his ears. For example, he could hear the vendors' calls and the haggling of customers at the small market at the village entrance, and even the smell of vegetables and cooked food. He could even tell what vegetables the vendors were selling and the exact location of each stall from such a distance. This is the benefit of the wolf's hearing and sense of smell.
These are the four divine powers he has obtained!
Eagle's eyes! Wolf's ears! Cheetah's speed, and bear's strength!
