Chapter 112 - Standing Up
Chapter 112 Standing Up
“I stood up last night.”
Chu Nan smiled and waved his hand, rejecting Dong Fang’s help. He composed himself and moved his other leg out of the bed. He first used the tip of his foot to touch the ground. After sensing the true feeling of the ground, he put his entire foot down.
Although he had tried it last night when no one was around, he had been bedridden for more than two months after all. He almost forgot how it felt to touch the ground.
He took a deep breath and felt that his legs were filled with a trace of strength. After his body returned to his control, Chu Nan propped himself up on the bed and slowly stood up. Although Chu Nan was swaying, he still stood up without a doubt and straightened his body. Dong Fang was extremely shocked and pleasantly surprised. He knew far more about Chu Nan’s injuries than ordinary people and knew that his injuries were extremely serious. According to the attending physician, the chance of him being stuck in bed for life, or even dying was more than 99%.
However, now, Chu Nan had actually relied on his own strength to stand up!
Ever since Chu Nan woke up, Dong Fang had personally seen his situation gradually getting better. The attending physician had even called this a miracle. However, now that he could personally see Chu Nan stand up, Dong Fang still felt that it was abnormally unbelievable.
Chu Nan had suffered such a serious injury, but he could actually recover now. His willpower and life force were simply terrifying!
“Can you… walk?” As soon as Dong Fang asked, he discovered that he was really too greedy.
With Chu Nan’s situation, being able to stand up was a huge victory. He was definitely far from being able to walk normally.
“Let me try.”
When he tried last night, Chu Nan had only successfully stood up and had never tested walking
Now, one of the reasons why he stood up in front of Dong Fang was to reassure his best friend. Another reason was actually to try walking
According to the precise data given by various aspects of his body, because he had suffered too serious an injury previously and had even been lying on the bed for more than two months, the strength of his muscles had decreased greatly. Not to mention the strength of his body that was equivalent to a third-stage Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist before he was injured, he was much inferior to ordinary people.
However, according to the data, it was still enough to support him walking normally. Chu Nan first tried to raise his right foot and only used his left leg to support his body. After realizing that there was no problem, he took a step forward with his right foot.
As his right foot landed, Chu Nan’s body suddenly tilted.
Dong Fang was shocked and hurriedly reached out to support him.
However, halfway through, Chu Nan’s body had already stabilized and he stood up again.
“Yes, very good. No problem.”
Chu Nan waved his hand at Dong Fang before stepping forward.
When he took the first two steps, Chu Nan still looked very difficult. His body was a little crooked and he looked like he could collapse at any moment.
However, after walking around the ward, his movements were clearly much more proficient and normal. Apart from his footsteps appearing weak, he was not much different from a normal person.
After walking five rounds, Chu Nan sat down on the bed again. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and nodded in satisfaction.
Although his muscles were ridiculously weak, causing him to be panting and sweating after walking for a few rounds, it at least proved that the control of his body had returned. Moreover, there was no part of his body that was not smooth. His entire body gave him a very harmonious feeling.
Closing his eyes, he separated a trace of Internal Breath and circulated it through his meridians. Chu Nan was even more satisfied.
After more than a month of continuous high-frequency Internal Breath vibration, which stimulated the self-healing of his meridians, the meridians in his body had basically completely recovered, causing his Internal Breath to completely recover. Apart from that, the toughness and strength of his meridians were clearly much higher than before he was injured, perfectly matching his expectations before he was injured.
With the strength of his previous meridians, he could at most circulate the Third Revolution Internal Breath and it would be slightly difficult.
Now that the strength had increased, the Third Revolution Internal Breath could be easily circulated. Although he did not dare to easily try the Fourth Revolution Internal Breath, from the data, he should be able to endure it.
Of course, he should not think about reaching the Fifth Revolution Internal Breath for the time being…
“According to this, can I train my meridians to a perfect state if my meridians are damaged and healed a few more times in the future?”
Chu Nan suddenly recalled a comic he had seen on the Milky Way Network a few years ago that was very popular on Earth more than 800 years ago. Every time the main character of that comic was seriously injured, his strength would greatly increase after he recovered.
His current situation was a little similar.
However, he immediately shook his head. Not to mention that it was extremely dangerous to do this, a moment of carelessness might cause serious consequences that were impossible to make up for. Just the extreme pain brought by this was enough to make him unwilling to do it again.
In the end, if not for the fact that he had been forced by Maruk to the point of having no choice but to take a risk, he would not have used such a crazy method.
There should be other methods to temper his body. Before he was helpless, Chu Nan did not plan to put himself in danger again.
“Right, after being interrupted by you, I nearly forgot about the serious matter I came here for. Take this.” Dong Fang suddenly slapped his head and threw the bag in his hand at Chu Nan.
The bag was light. Chu Nan raised his hand and felt his arm turn soft. He did not manage to catch it and allowed the bag to fall to the ground.
Dong Fang was stunned for a moment before he squatted down to pick up the bag and handed it to Chu Nan.
“With your current state, you still want to register for Star Cloud Academy?”
“It’s not like I won’t recover.” Chu Nan glared at him and opened the bag. He discovered that there was a document marked with the ‘Leave of Absence’
“What does this mean?” Chu Nan looked at Dong Fang in shock.
“It’s very simple. The academy doesn’t agree with your withdrawal application, but considering that you indeed need a long period of recovery, they might as well give you a leave of absence and let you rest for a year before coming to school next year.”
After Chu Nan decided to register for Star Cloud Academy, in order to focus on preparing, he decided to withdraw from West Cloud Academy.
However, he did not expect that West Cloud Academy would reject his withdrawal application.
“Why?”
“Is there a need to ask?” Dong Fang had an expression that said, “How can you be so stupid? Didn’t I say just now that you’re about to become a hero defending the honor of the federation? You’re the iconic figure of the young martial artists below the age of 20 in the federation. How can the academy let such a great symbol go?”
“But I’m going to register for Star Cloud Academy. You didn’t tell them?”
“I’ve said it, but the leaders of the academy say that it doesn’t matter.” Dong Fang shrugged, “They even said that they’re willing to provide great support for you to register for Star Cloud Academy and will send teachers to specially guide you and help you better enter Star Cloud Academy. How about it? Are you tempted by this condition?”
“This…”
Chu Nan frowned.
The academy actually raised such a good condition. It was really beyond his expectations, and he could not help but hesitate.
