With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 186 No, Venerable Yin is going to be a judge again? (3k)

Including the recovery boost from the [Bone Tempering and Blood Regeneration Ointment], you can gain about 2% proficiency every day.

It should conclude on the second or third day of the competition.

"Hopefully we won't encounter any strong enemies before then."

Meng Chuan thought to himself.

Iron Shirt is a second-rate hard skill that improves the body in all aspects. If mastered, it greatly enhances one's combat ability.

Li Weigang, who was standing nearby, also knew that Meng Chuan was going to participate in the competition.

laughed:

"I've also booked tickets for my family. It'll be a good time for them to relax. I'll be there to cheer you on."

As expected, this competition is the highest-level martial arts event in Yong'an this year.

The crowd was enthusiastic, with front-row seats in the inner area being resold for over ten thousand yuan each, and tickets for the outer area also going on sale for three thousand yuan each.

"Thanks, Brother Gang."

night.

Luo Guanyun didn't have to go to the Demon Nest for duty today, so he stayed with Meng Chuan to practice boxing until 11 p.m.

Seeing that Meng Chuan was still full of energy, he then spoke:

"Let's fight a little longer?"

"Okay, I'll practice Thunderclap Hand Technique for a while longer."

This method was created by Master Luo, and with the master's guidance, proficiency increases even faster.

Luo Guanyun smiled and said:
"Your stamina has always been good, but I think it's gotten even stronger since you started practicing Iron Crotch Kung Fu."

Meng Chuan countered with a question:

"Master, didn't you practice too? How was the result?"

Luo Guanyun blushed.

"It's not bad."

This is certified by my wife; the effect is amazing.

Martial Arts Indoor.

The master and apprentice moved nimbly around the room, with Luo Guanyun focused on teaching his apprentice the moves. Before they knew it, an hour had passed.

As he stood still and adjusted his breathing, Luo Guanyun said:

"The Thunderclap Fist style is right up your alley; you're progressing quite fast."

"Yes, it feels very enjoyable to play against them."

Every style of boxing created by Luo Guanyun was perfectly suited to Meng Chuan's tastes.

"That's good, haha."

My students love the boxing style I invented; nothing could make me happier than that.

How's your stance training progressing lately?

"It's almost perfect."

Luo Guanyun nodded.

Standing meditation requires arduous practice; talent has little effect on it.

Meng Chuan's ability to reach perfection before the nine trials is enough to prove that he put in the effort.

"When your Qi and blood can rise and fall and open and close at will, and your tendons and veins are strong and powerful and the five grounds are open, it proves that you have mastered the human stance."

Then you won't need to practice standing meditation anymore. You can use that time to practice boxing and accumulate qi and blood. Once you've become a martial artist, you can then practice the "ground stance" technique.

Meng Chuan nodded. He had also felt something when he practiced standing meditation recently, and he was not far from the level that Master Luo had mentioned.

Seeing that Meng Chuan was still full of energy, Luo Guanyun explained to him the martial arts principles regarding the relationship between the spirit and the body.

Meng Chuan concluded that his weaker mental strength was probably an innate weakness.

Luo Guanyun patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:

"It's not a big problem; martial arts can change everything."

If you are born with a lack of mental energy, you can make up for it later in life.

Many martial arts techniques come with methods for cultivating the spirit; you can learn them when the time comes, for example…

Meng Chuan continued:

"The Primordial Spirit Thunder Technique?"

Luo Guanyun remained silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes."

To distract his apprentice, he continued:

“Mental power techniques like Dragon Meditation are truly rare. You can look for them again when you go to the National University and exchange them for credits.”

Meng Chuan nodded in understanding.

That's the advantage of Wuhan University; many of its martial arts techniques and secret manuals are exclusive.

It's not that they're stuck in their ways, but rather that they all have corresponding entry requirements. Without a master's guidance, it's difficult to even get started with many genuine skills and secret techniques.

Seeing that it was getting late, Luo Guanyun said:

"Go back and get some rest."

By the way, your master will be attending as a judge for Yong An Martial Arts School during your competition.

"Compete well then and show your best!"

Meng Chuan laughed:

“Then I’ll wear our martial arts uniform and give my master a shout-out.”

"Hahaha, okay."

As Meng Chuan prepared to leave, he suddenly thought of something before he went:
"If Master Luo is a judge from the martial arts school, could there also be judges from universities?"

So he told Luo Guanyun about the "advisor".

Luo Guanyun burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Then, with a strange expression, he said:

"It's alright. The fact that Principal Yang isn't angry proves that he doesn't care about these things. You're quite good at using someone else's name to make a big deal out of nothing."

However, the judge from the university was not Principal Yang, but Principal Yin from Yong'an Wuhan University.

"Ok."

"No problem," Meng Chuan said as he returned home, washed up, and prepared to go to sleep.

Before going to sleep, he rested his head on his arm, still thinking.

"Venerable Yin seems quite free all day long; he even took the joint examination of twenty-four schools last time."

Thinking of this, Meng Chuan suddenly sat up.

He seems to have noticed a problem: why is Yin Tianshou always present in the games where he is?
His expression then softened, and he realized that he might have been overthinking things.

It is normal for Yin Tianshou, as the principal of a top-tier martial arts university in Yong'an, to attend such a youth martial arts competition.

But Meng Chuan still felt it was too strange. Yin Tianshou had been in power for nearly ten years, and while such events had happened before, he rarely attended them.

He guessed that the most likely scenario was:
“It was really a coincidence that Principal Yin was on top of the tomb of King Xiang last time.”

However, when he fought Xu Qingfeng, he was so exhausted that he triggered the Rainbow Radiance Body, which made Yin Tianshou begin to take an interest in him.

The fact that the opposing team is again serving as a judge in this year's Supernova Competition suggests they may be using the opportunity to observe and further prove certain hypotheses.

"Regardless, we still need to be careful; they might really be observing me."
The point that the other party is interested in should be my [trait], so I absolutely cannot use Rainbow Body Transformation to activate the second state this time.”

Compared to the risk of being targeted by someone respected, winning or losing a competition is nothing.

It seems that seizing that monster statue was truly a blessing in disguise.

Before one's mental strength is enhanced, one's mind shouldn't be able to process information this quickly.
But Master Luo's words were also a constant reminder to him that he must never go down the evil path of absorbing spiritual power, or he would inevitably capsize in the gutter sooner or later.

"Let's focus on practicing Dragon Meditation. It's a bit slow, but it's more stable."

Haste makes waste. He's still young and has plenty of time.

What Meng Chuan didn't know was that the lights in apartment 003, Building A of Huayun Mansion, remained on even after he left.

After his apprentice left, Luo Guanyun took out the tortoise shell engraved with demonic arts and studied it again.

They only study its appearance without practicing the meridian circulation.

His research that night yielded new findings.

The secret may be related to the three elements of essence, energy, and spirit.

Essence is the source of life, Qi is the driving force of life, and Shen represents all the mental activities of the human body.

When all three are perfected, one is promoted to Grandmaster.

Therefore, Luo Guanyun naturally understood this principle.

"The Primordial Spirit Thunder Technique is not a divine skill or ultimate technique; it is inherently flawed, emphasizing the [spirit] while downplaying [essence and energy]."

This demonic art is different; judging from the text, its purpose seems to be specifically to plunder the vital energy and essence of the body.

He had a bold idea.

Could it be that thousands of years ago, this Spirit Platform Demon Seed and his family's inherited Primordial Spirit Thunder Technique were originally from the same source?
Thinking of this, even though he was a grandmaster, he felt a chill all over his body.

"Once Chuan'er goes to university, let's go back to our ancestral home in Lu."

Time passes slowly.

The start date of the National Martial Arts Supernova Tournament is getting closer and closer.

Early that morning, Meng Chuan practiced boxing at the martial arts arena of Yugao High School.

He received a call from Zheng Zhenzhen, and his hand slipped and he answered it.

Recently, Zheng Zhenzhen has been calling him all the time, and it wouldn't be good to refuse, so he just listens to her calls while practicing his boxing.

[Hello, Meng, are you listening?]

Her response was the whooshing sound of fists coming from the other end of the phone.

Zheng Zhenzhen put her mouth to the receiver, puffed out her cheeks, and shouted loudly:
[Meng Chuan!]

On the other end of the phone, Meng Chuan stopped and put his ear to the receiver:
What are you doing?

My injury is too bad, I have to withdraw from the competition. Could you come visit me at the hospital when you have some free time?

She spent one night at Yong'an Martial Arts Specialist Hospital.

Afterwards, her brother Zheng Chengcheng transferred her back to Yan Huawu's independent hospital.

Zheng Zhenzhen glanced nervously at her back injury; if Meng Chuan hadn't come soon, it would have really healed.
Meng Chuan remained silent.

He knew perfectly well about Zheng Zhenzhen's injury; it was just a small spot on her waist, nothing serious.

【I'm practicing my boxing and don't have time. Have your brother take good care of you. Just watch my performance from the audience.】

Because of what happened that night, Meng Chuan gradually became familiar with the other party, and some jokes came out of nowhere.

【Nima. Bye-bye.】

Before Zheng Zhenzhen could even finish speaking, she saw her brother bring in the food and quickly hung up.

Zheng Chengcheng opened the food boxes one by one, handed them to her younger sister's bedside, and said:

"Was it worth getting injured because of Meng Chuan?"

"It has nothing to do with Meng Chuan; it's that demonic bandit."

Zheng Zhenzhen sounded a little uneasy, worried that her brother had noticed something.

Zheng Chengcheng said calmly:

"Meng Chuan has some talent, and he is worth recruiting by our Zheng family."

But you must prioritize your own safety; don't be so reckless next time.

Zheng Zhenzhen nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I forgot that my brother practices martial arts on the mountain every day and doesn't know anything about it."

The brother and sister chatted about the upcoming Supernova Tournament while eating.

"You don't need to worry about Meng Chuan. This time, I just want to show him what true martial arts are."

Showing off one's abilities in a small place is just being narrow-minded and ignorant.

Zheng Chengcheng's idea has always been very simple: to subdue people with force.

Zheng Zhenzhen felt that the other person might have stayed in the mountains for too long and become somewhat out of touch with society.

But there was nothing she could do; even her grandmother couldn't persuade her.

She said while eating:
"Then you should go easy on me."

In her mind, the possibility of Meng Chuan being able to beat Zheng Chengcheng was extremely slim.

Only after witnessing Zheng Chengcheng's skills can one truly understand what a genius is.

On Yanhua Mountain, and even on countless Yanhua branch schools.

Anyone who knows Zheng Chengcheng has almost already decided in their hearts that she will be the next "Superpower Master".

The title of "Superior Master of Divine Power" is similar to that of "True Martial Arts Transmission" at the United University, which is the title of Yan Huawu's senior brother over the years.

Supernatural powers refer to extraordinary abilities acquired through cultivation.

The one above is praised as the "most gifted among thousands of students."

It wasn't because of her grandmother, but because Zheng Chengcheng herself was strong enough.

In terms of innate talent, comprehension, and even special qualities, Zheng Chengcheng is ahead of the pack.

As for practical application...

He hasn't even entered university yet, but he already has the strength to pass the nine tests.

Next year, he will advance to the next level of martial arts, participate in the year-end title competition, and it's practically a certainty that he will win the title of the top martial arts master.

Zheng Chengcheng's words interrupted Zheng Zhenzhen's daydream.

He said calmly:
"I understand. My sister's idea is good. I understand the importance of respecting and valuing talent."

"."

Zheng Zhenzhen remained silent, focusing on the food in front of her.
