“Are you okay?”
Chen Sheng helped Shi Jian, who had come to his side.
The latter was clutching his ribs, hissing occasionally.
“It’s just a minor injury, not worth mentioning.”
With a wry smile, Shi Jian tried to give a thumbs up.
But the moment he moved, it aggravated his injured nerve, causing his body to cramp from the pain.
Chen Sheng, ignoring Wu Ran’s beating of the other disciples, helped Shi Jian to a side to rest.
“Is it always like this after each sparring session?”
After Shi Jian settled down, Chen Shung posed his puzzled question.
He couldn’t understand what good it could do to spar like this.
“Not necessarily.”
“Look over there.”
Shi Jian nodded toward another direction.
Chen Sheng looked over.
It was the area where the eldest brother, Guo Yang, was sparring.
The spar on the field, compared to Wu Ran’s one-sided beatings, seemed much more formal.
It was said to be a spar, but it was more like correcting moves.
For every move, Guo Yang would point out the opponent’s mistakes and then demonstrate the correct move himself.
The disciples standing there all had excited expressions on their faces.
It was a scene of warmth and harmony.
“However, compared to Wu Ran, it’s not the worst.”
“Look over at Li Qian’s side.”
At this time,
Shi Jian’s voice rang out again.
Chen Sheng looked in another direction.
Shock flashed across his face.
He saw that Li Qian had already returned to Li Xingwu’s side.
And those disciples she had brought with her, each of them laid on the ground, wailing in misery.
“Before Qi-sensors existed, a spar was indeed a spar.”
“It allowed stronger martial artists to consolidate their skills while teaching others, and allowed the weaker ones to learn something.”
“But now, with the appearance of Qi-sensors,”
“A spar is more like a trial.”
“Those with poor Qi-Sense talent, as well as those disciples of the martial hall who were unable to become Qi-sensors, if they perform too poorly, they will be expelled from the martial hall by the Grand Master after the spar.”
Speaking of this,
Shi Jian let out a sigh.
Then,
Seeing Chen Sheng’s incredulous expression, he continued.
“I know what you’re thinking.”
“Actually, the Grand Master wasn’t like this originally.”
“For those disciples with poor talent, he used to scold and beat them, but it was because he was frustrated that they weren’t living up to their potential.”
“But ever since that incident happened with Li Qian’s family, the Grand Master changed.”
“As for what exactly happened, I’m not sure, and I dare not ask.”
Upon hearing this,
Chen Sheng looked thoughtful.
Half a year ago…..
Wasn’t that when the tide rising period just began?
And from the conversation yesterday between Li Xingwu and my master, it seems that the father and son haven’t seen each other since half a year ago.
Chen Sheng was quite curious about what happened back then.
But he didn’t have the habit of striking where it hurt, he could only wait for a chance to ask in the future.
As time gradually passed,
Wu Ran’s sparring was also over.
Lastly, Guo Yang’s spar came to an end.
After the sparring was over,
All the disciples gathered again.
Li Xingwu called out a few names of the disciples.
“Those of you, don’t bother coming to the martial arts hall from tomorrow onwards.”
“With your aptitude, there’s no point in further practice. Better roll now than die later.”
Those whose names were called looked as if they were grieving.
But they know Li Xingwu’s personality, no negotiations.
Regardless of how they begged and struggled, it would be futile.
After that,
Li Xingwu went straight towards the inner courtyard.
Only the ordinary disciples were left, bidding each other farewell.contemporary romance
On his first day at the martial arts hall, Chen Sheng only knew Shi Jian.
He felt a bit out of place in this situation.
So,
After saying goodbye to Shi Jian, he left the martial arts hall and prepared to go to the gym.
After Chen Sheng left,
The Inner Courtyard.
This place, a distinct area set up by the Xingwu Gym, is a stark contrast to the environment within the Martial Arts Hall, with its distinct rural style.
Under a massive banyan tree,
Li Qian and Wu Ran were incessantly guzzling broth from a bowl.
Li Xingwu, on the other hand, sat on a rocking chair nearby, humming a tune with his eyes closed, gently waving a Pu Fan in his hand.
“Master, Li Chenghu’s disciple has left.”
That’s when,
Guo Yang peeked out from the door which connected the Practice Martial Field to the other courtyard and said.
As for what he was talking about.
Wu Ran and Li Qian turned a deaf ear, continuing with their Three-Body Stance practice immediately after finishing their medicine broth.
From their stance, however, they were still at Level 1.
A far cry from Chen Sheng’s Level 2.
Li Xingwu, upon hearing the news, directly let out a cold snort.
“My son, he can’t even master martial arts, and he’s also blind.”
“Bringing such a lazy person into the Martial Arts Hall, I’m not sure what he’s thinking.”
“Senior Brother Li is not impulsive, his words and actions must have profound implications.”
Guo Yang walked into the courtyard, a warm smile on his face as he tried to pacify him.
“I don’t care about his profound implications!”
“Next time during sparring, if this Chen Sheng does not perform, tell him to get lost.”
Once Li Xingwu declared his decision, Guo Yang did not dare to argue.
He went to Wu and Li’s side, prepared to practice the Three-Body Technique.
“But as for you!”
But Li Xingwu shot him a glance.
“How’s Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound faring?”
“If you keep going on like this, and if Wu Ran manages to master it before you, where will you, his senior brother, put your face!”
In the face of Li Xingwu’s reprimand,
Guo Yang’s face was bitter.
“How can I compare with Junior Brother Wu; his talent and my talent.”
“Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound is not an ordinary skill; I can’t master it that quickly.”
“You still dare to argue?” Li Xingwu’s eyes bulged as he threw away the Pu Fan in his hand.
“Seems like it’s been a long time since I trained you.”
“Ahh Master, I’m hurriedly practicing now, so don’t disrupt me.”
“Take this punch!”
Boom!
—————–
Outside Xingwu gym.
Right after Chen Sheng left, his phone in his pocket began to vibrate.
Upon checking, it was a message from his own master, Li Chenghu.
[Tiger Roams the World: How did you fare in the Martial Arts Hall today?]
Chen Sheng immediately replied.
[Qingfeng Xulai: Learned the Five Elements Fist, feel like I should get the hang of it if I practice tonight]
[Tiger Roams the World: (thumbs up) As expected of my disciple, train well and strive to be the direct disciple]
[Qingfeng Xulai: No, your disciple swears to follow the master through thick and thin, even the Grand Master can’t make me change my sect]
Chen Sheng started his habitual flattery again.
However,
He meant what he said.
He could learn the art of Xingyi as a common disciple, so why bother becoming a direct disciple.
Being personally guided by the Grand Master may sound good, but it’s not as quick as Chen Sheng himself upgrading through adding points.
His main goal was to quickly improve his physical fitness with cultivation techniques like the Three-Body Stance.
[Tiger Roams the World: (rolls eyes) A direct disciple is just a title, not a must for swearing my dad as a master]
[Moreover, only by becoming a direct disciple can one learn the real secret art of Xingyi Fist, Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound]
[Qingfeng Xulai: Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, what’s that?]
[Tiger Roams the World: It’s a type of breathing technique for cultivation, my dad never taught me the specifics]
[But what I can tell you for sure is that the reason I wanted you to practice martial arts is because of the existence of Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound.]
[Only by practicing Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, can a Qi-sensor have a chance of resisting a Heavenly Person]
[And as far as I know, most Martial Arts Sects do not have a legacy of breathing methods]
That strong?
Although he never met a Heavenly Person.
But from others, especially from Li Chenghu’s repeated stress.
Chen Sheng also understands how powerful Heavenly People are.
They are beings who view Qi sensors and humans as ants.
But Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound can actually give Qi Sensors a possibility to resist Heavenly People.
Upon hearing what Li Chenghu had to say, Chen Sheng’s interest was immediately piqued.
“I wonder if there’s anything online.”
After ending the chat, Chen Sheng started looking up information on Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound on his phone.
However,
When he started searching, he realized something was not right.
