Training field

¨Well, what have we here?¨ Xiao Fan excitedly welcomed his to be wives as he came walking outside the lobby.

¨Of course we came to see how you were doing¨ Zhuan An spoke back to him.

¨Xiao Fan if you want our families can easily get a place where you can stay? You don't need to be stuck here with Elder Meng¨ Fei Sun spoke their intent more clearly.

¨Yes, come and stay with us¨ Zhuan An affirmed.

'So they are here to get me out of the clutches of Meng Chin' Xiao Fan thought.

Xiao Fan thought it was a good idea and appreciated the notion of the girls. However, it was not feasible at all, as Meng Chin had much higher cultivation than other elders in the sect.

Meng Chin was a Body Reunion realm expert in the disguise of a Body Strengthening realm peak. Stacked up against two Body Shattering realm newbies that the girls' parents were... The fight wouldn't even be close.

¨Sorry, but as you might have seen, I can't currently leave this place¨ Xiao Fan laughed their offer off.

¨You are meaning that Meng Chin is trying to reform her lazy ways or something for real?¨ Zhuan An spoke while her hand pointed at the smoked still coming from the inner courtyard behind Xiao Fan.

¨Hah, fat chance she will do anything good¨ Snickered Fei Sun who didn't believe that the ¨lazy elder¨ would change.

¨Hey!¨ Xiao Fan stopped the snickering of Fei Sun immediately as he wanted to defend Meng Chin who he thought had good reasons to be like she was.

This action shocked both of them, especially Fei Sun, because Xiao Fan's words were clearly aimed at her.

¨Elder Meng is trying to do better okay, and I need to help her¨ Xiao Fan defended Meng Chin with his words while he also made action by taking a stern look at Fei Sun.

Plus, it was for a good reason, for they were currently talking inside Meng Chin's courtyard and so the woman Fei Sun was criticising could easily hear them.

Xiao Fan still remembers how good the hear had been when he rampaged inside the Bald Eagle Dynasty's capital. During that, he had heard every rat in the city squeak, so Meng Chin should be able to eavesdrop on them easy peasy.

Luckily however, before the situation between Xiao Fan and Fei Sun who was about to say something that would be escalating tensions, Zhuan An intercepted the conversation.

¨We were also coming to get you to come and see the sect¨ She said while taking a few steps towards Xiao Fan and taking his hand.

This did at least calm down Xiao Fan who saw the cutie trying to drag him with her ¨Sure thing. I wanted to go and see the sect with you two anyways¨ Xiao Fan spoke.

And while being dragged towards the gate leading outside Xiao Fan also grabbed the other girl from the waist and although she for a moment resisted seemed to be giving in.

Xiao Fan had been outside for a couple of times already before this, but those times had only been to do business, so he hadn't been to many places.

Not at least this one.

¨What's this place¨ He questioned shortly after they had arrived at a large field where people seemed to be, training?

¨This place is the training field for the upper sect¨ Fei Sun explained with a tone that still seemed to hold a small grudge about how Xiao Fan had treated her.

But giving a vague answer like this only gave way for Zhuan An to explain more which she did ¨The Rising Fox sect has these place for convenience sake¨

¨It would be way too expensive for everyone to have their own place to train, so the sect has made a few big ones that everyone can use¨

This answer was much better, and from it, Xiao Fan got the idea ¨So this is a place where disciples train?¨ He spoke excitedly as Zhuan An was eager to talk with him about anything.

¨You're right. This place is for Body Activation realm disciples of the sect¨ Zhuan explained.

Feeling that she was being left to the side a little too much, Fei Sun finally decided to stop sulking and also noted something.

¨But remember this is for everyone¨ She spoke words that were of a warning nature.

Xiao Fan didn't get it, but Zhuan An seeing that explained more ¨Fei Sun means that people from both factions use this place¨

Which made Xiao Fan seem puzzled and made him ask ¨Why don't you make a private place? Don't you get bullied by the other faction here?¨

This was weird to him. If the two factions always tried to stomp the other, why would they train next to each other? Just make your own place to train and be left alone.

¨My father tells me that it's because if we do just that the sect would be ripped into two further¨ Zhuan An was ready to explain anything she knew to Xiao Fan.

By now Xiao Fan was feeling that Zhuan An was actually smitten by him or something, as already during the trip back she had been like this.

Of course, he didn't mind this woman's shows of affection to him at all.

Plus, her explanations were good, he hadn't indeed taken account that if the factions stopped all touch with the other faction at a young age, the sect would be ripped in two by the time those kids would grow up.

¨Zhuan An your father seems to be a wise man¨ Xiao Fan complimented the girl who was working so hard.

Zhuan An surely appreciated his compliment as she looked at Xiao Fan's eyes that were hypnotising her.

But by now the other girl was again feeling left out and so stopped the moment between the two ¨Let's go and test the equipment. I want to see what you are made of¨ Fei Sun yanked Xiao Fan with her towards the field.

Leaving behind Zhuan An who was having a moment with Xiao Fan behind, while he himself hadn't expected to be pulled out so suddenly.

Before Xiao Fan was back to the moment, he had already been dragged to the field by Fei Sun whereas Zhuan An cathed up with them.

Luckily for him when looking behind him at Zhuan An who was catching up with them, Xiao Fan was relieved to see that the woman seemed not to harbour any jealousy.

The same couldn't be said about Fei Sun who was jealous and was because of that now dragging him in front of some machine.

When at the machine he became confused again.

¨What the hell is this?¨ Xiao Fan questioned, he had seen the same type of a device being used by Du Lan, but he hadn't taken any notes of the machine itself as he had been occupied with other thoughts at the time.

¨You have never used these things?¨ Fei Sun spoke and took a look at him ¨Really?¨ She added seeing as Xiao Fan seemed to be completely out.

¨I once saw such a device in Hangzhou, but I don't know what it does¨ Xiao Fan replied truthfully.

This puzzled Fei Sun much, for she hadn't thought that someone would be at his level without never actually practising with these devices.

In her opinion, these machines were simply the best way she knew that people could advance in the Body realm with good pace, yet Xiao Fan hadn't ever used them?

¨It might be true. Look at his body and remember how when were in Hangzhou we couldn't find a training place there¨ Zhuan An had by now cathed up with them and spoke.

Indeed thought Fei Sun. Xiao Fan by their standards had more of a mortals body than a cultivator's.

Usually, cultivators had much more muscle on their bodies, even some women had more muscle than Xiao Fan, plus Hangzhou didn't indeed have a training place.

¨He might actually be telling the truth¨ Fei Sun spoke and agreed with Zhuan An.

¨Can you teach me?¨ Xiao Fan stopped their thinking. At this point, he was getting tired of how everyone was saying that he had no muscles like a man should.

His redirection of the conversation appeared to work as Zhuan An after hearing him say so got under the machine or whatever it was.

¨I'll show you how this works¨ she said while making some preparatory movements under a metal bar that was touching the back of her neck.

Understanding that something would be soon happening Xiao Fan focussed onto Zhuan An's body.

Zhuan An's preparatory movements were her taking a good place under the bar, and after she found the right spots, she straightened her back and lifted the bar from two ledges holding it up.

Already from this Xiao Fan could start to see what Fei Sun was doing but kept quiet and watched what would she do next.

Which was to take her body low in the same way Xiao Fan had done with the rocks he had been lifting in the Moneky Tribe, but unlike him, Zhuan An seemed to be holding her hands on the bar?

Then he realised that this was the same move Du Lan had done in their hotel room. Xiao Fan hadn't realised this before, and when he realised his eyes wanted to wander.

However, not wanting to be seen as a pervert, he tried his best not to peek any glances towards Zhuan An's lower back, or at least not stay on it too long.

Focussing more to the movements Xiao Fan could see from the lack of clothing Zhuan AN had on her that many of her muscles were being strained by the movement even more so than in his rock lifting.

So was this a better version of the move? Maybe yes maybe not Xiao Fan thought and marked to himself that he needed to ask Meng Chin about these things.

When she had come back up to straight legs again Zhuan An place the bar back where it was and walked out off the cage.

¨That's a squat¨ Fei Sun shortly explained before Zhuan An took over.

¨It's a full-body move that helps train almost every muscle in one's body at the same time...¨ She went on for a good moment while even showing which muscles it helps.

With a notable reaction of amazement from Xiao Fan when Zhuan An showed her massive thigh muscles, a consequence of her faithful training routine.

It even made Xiao Fan jealous for god sake as he knew that his leg muscles couldn't compare to those of Zhuan An.

Xiao Fan, of course, knew about this type of training, but he hadn't ever had the time to focus on it.

After getting The Book of Cultivation, Xiao Fan had been mostly on the move, so making a place like this where he could train regularly had been impossible.

¨This is incredible. I never thought about things like this¨ Xiao Fan commented after Zhuan An had stopped explaining.

¨Pff¨ She blew it off giggling¨Compared to your Greenheart mix this is a small thing¨ Zhuan An commented not thinking poorly of Xiao Fan's obliviousness.

In her mind, it was understandable that Xiao Fan didn't know so much about these things, the sects guarded these things, and many at the less prominent places knew nothing.

Furthermore, Xiao Fan had invented the Greenheart mix while they only followed things that had been known to them since they had been children.

Xiao Fan hearing Zhuan An say so took the compliment and laughed a little. A woman fawning over you still felt good.

Now wanting another piece of it, Xiao Fan decided to try this move called squat himself, he would need to learn it anyway, and currently, he had the best trainers helping him.

So after laughing, he asked about it ¨Can I try it now?¨
