With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 248 I have a steel gun, how about finding a Great Sage?

Later, through his master's introduction, Meng Chuan understood its value and principles.

Weapons used by historical figures may fetch a premium at auction, but if they are resold later, the losses won't be too significant.

He couldn't help but feel a little excited, with its dark red, ferocious claws and menacing appearance shrouded in malevolent energy.

Wouldn't it look incredibly cool to wear it myself?
After the initial calm subsided, Meng Chuan felt a pang of unease.

My master has spent so much money on himself again; he's probably already saved up for his retirement.
Before going to sleep, Meng Chuan firmly thought:
"I must repay my master properly in the future. Optimizing thunder magic is just the beginning."

The next morning, before boarding the plane, Meng Chuanyu received a text message on his mobile phone.

May your journey be filled with triumphs and triumphs. (Publicity Department of Beijing United University)

Meng Chuan smiled knowingly, but was still a little annoyed.

"Let's get practical. Like academic credits or something."

He was just making a casual remark; Master Lu had mentioned it a few days ago.

When you return to school after the event, the university will definitely give you a reward.

Just remind him to wear the North Union University martial arts robe, the [Crimson Dragon Suit], during the competition.
Half past ten in the morning.

Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport.

After getting off the plane, Meng Chuan looked around and thought, "This is indeed a big city."

In the distance, skyscrapers stand tall, outlining a bustling skyline that soars into the clouds.

The glass curtain wall of the terminal building in front of me is clean and shiny.

The reflection of the fashionable women's beautiful figures earns a thumbs up from the dragon demon.

"Master Luo, God Meng, over here!"

In the distance, a man in a suit waved and greeted them.

His imposing presence also suggests he is a master of martial arts at the ninth level.

He also has another identity: a fan of Meng Chuan's competitions. He was the one who fought for this airport pick-up job.

She helped Meng Chuan load his luggage into the trunk, and then the rear door of the van slowly opened.

When Meng Chuan sat down, he even helped cover his forehead to prevent him from bumping his head, behaving very properly.

This is the quality of HanHai employees: they receive high salaries from a big company, yet they do their jobs flawlessly.

"President Shen has already booked a restaurant to welcome the two leaders."

"Okay, please."

"Um, Mr. Meng, could you please sign your name for me?"

After he sat down, he took out a pair of boxing gloves.

Meng Chuan was somewhat surprised that the other party was actually his fan.

"No problem, what do you need to sign? Your name?"

"Yes, I'm also from Yong'an, and I came to Shanghai to work. Would it be okay if I signed with [Yong'an Steel Gun]?"

"."

Luo Guanyun was laughing so hard he was doubled over, while Meng Chuan had a black line on his face, wondering if this kid was a hater.
The first shop on Jinling East Road is 【Chaotiange】.

This is the most bustling commercial street in all of Shanghai, known as the "Number One Street of the Great Chu".

The fact that this restaurant can be considered a pioneer in this area speaks volumes about its grandeur.

Upon entering the reserved private room, Master Shen Shuo was not seated; instead, he faced the main seat opposite the entrance.

In the main seat sat a beautiful woman in a pink palace dress.

Her beauty was breathtaking, her figure slender, and the faint traces of time on her cheeks only added to her charm.

She was as beautiful as a celestial being, but Meng Chuan dared not overstep his bounds and desperately suppressed the dragon demon within his body.

Because of its aura, it is as deep as the ocean!

Seeing the two enter, Shen Shuo stood up and introduced them with a smile:
"Master Luo, Xiao Meng, this is my wife, Bai Zhifeng, a professor at the main campus of the Oriental United Martial Arts University."

Luo Guanyun quickly performed the martial arts salute, and Meng Chuan did the same.

The master spoke:

"Hello, [Hohok] senior."

Meng Chuan was greatly shocked. Among the various schools of pictographic learning, only the current leader of that school was qualified to choose such a two-character title containing the character "王" (Wang).

The phoenix is ​​a major school of thought in the field of pictographs. Although it cannot compare to the dragon, tiger, ape, and eagle, it still has hundreds of thousands of followers.

Master Shen's wife was the first person to possess the Phoenix Form.

Meng Chuan guessed that the other party was at least a powerhouse of similar level to Principal Yang.

That old bastard Shen Shuo took a shortcut.
Bai Zhifeng smiled and said:
"Please sit down, both of you. There's no need to be so formal."

My husband, Lao Shen, really spoke too late. If I had known there was such a martial arts genius, I would have done anything to help Dongda University.

The master waved his hand and said:
"I dare not accept the title of Venerable Bai. Your school has countless outstanding talents, and Meng Chuan's strength is not enough to compare."

In this situation, Meng Chuan felt it was better to keep quiet and focus on eating.

While eating, he secretly harbored doubts:
"Old Shen is really lucky to have found a wife who is both good at fighting and beautiful."

He made up his mind to learn from Master Shen.

With my talent for steel guns, how about finding a Great Sage (a powerful martial arts expert)?
After several rounds of meals, Meng Chuan ate many ingredients he had never seen before.

When Master Shen paid the bill, he glanced at it.

The list was filled with long lines of zeros.

At the end, Bai Shen and his wife talked about themselves again.

Meng Chuan quickly stopped cleaning up the battlefield and stood up to listen.

Shen Shuo smiled faintly:

"Give it your all in the competition! One of our directors from Hanhai will also be there to watch the finals."

If you win the championship, this person will be the one to sign the [Dawn Start] contract with you. Perform well.

Meng Chuan nodded to indicate that he understood.

But then the other person paused for a moment, and then said:
“This director is also my mentor. With my help, the second-place candidate should also be able to sign.”

"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, I will do my best."

In the nanny van, Meng Chuan closed his eyes to rest.

Mr. Shen booked the most luxurious hotel next to the Shanghai Martial Arts Competition Center for himself and his master.

It has three bedrooms and two living rooms, and includes a 200-square-meter martial arts room.

At 20,000 yuan a day, Shen Shuo generously booked the room for half a month.

On the way to the hotel, Meng Chuan couldn't help but think:
"Mr. Shen invited me to dinner today, is he here to put on an act?" After checking into the hotel, Luo Guanyun asked with a smile:

"Chuan'er, do you know why Master Shen is here today?"

Meng Chuan pondered for a moment and said:

"He's flexing his muscles to reassure us, master and apprentice."

There are many factions within Hanhai, and President Shen is probably worried that if he goes to Shanghai, he might defect to other people in Hanhai.

Upon hearing this, a hint of relief flashed in Luo Guanyun's eyes.

A master must teach martial arts, principles, and even the principles of martial arts.

Only when all three are taught well can one be considered to have "graduated".

This was truly difficult, and therefore, after Meng Chuan, he never considered taking on another disciple.

Even ordinary disciples who are not personally instructed still bear a heavy responsibility.

“That’s right. Shen Shuo’s banquet today may seem like a welcome party, but in reality, he’s using Venerable Bai’s influence to make his stance clear.”

Although there are factional struggles within Hanhai, his lineage has a deep foundation and a personal master who oversees the board of directors.

You just need to focus on the game; they'll handle everything else.

Meng Chuan suddenly realized that his master's understanding was indeed more thorough than his own.

After Luo Guanyun finished speaking, he patted his apprentice on the shoulder:

"Go to your room and rest. Although there are no matches tomorrow, you still have to attend the opening ceremony. You've had a long journey, so you need to get some rest."

"clear."

"By the way, don't worry about your fist blade for now. Large auctions have many procedures, and it will take at least half a month before the martial artist can personally submit it for auction. I reckon you won't even get to Yong'an by the time you finish your competition in Shanghai."

Meng Chuan nodded; he wasn't in a hurry.

True martial arts require true qi to activate; without becoming a martial artist, one cannot unleash its true power.

Nighttime, at the elevator entrance.

After a day of pre-match preparations, Meng Chuan was about to go downstairs to have lunch with his master.

As the elevator doors opened, an elderly man and a young man stepped out.

The old man wore a gray cloth long gown and walked with a steady gait, just like any ordinary neighbor.

The boy was dressed in white, his face as delicate as a finely painted lady. If it weren't for his slightly protruding Adam's apple, it would be almost impossible to tell his gender.

Meng Chuan nodded slightly, recognizing that this was the Eastern Champion, Luo Qin of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, this "master" in real life was even more androgynous than in the video.

The two stood apart and nodded slightly as a greeting.

Luo Guanyun was looking down, replying to group messages for the Infinite Martial Arts Academy. As the leader, he had many things to worry about.

After replying, seeing his disciple gazing at that graceful figure, he chuckled and teased:
"Still looking? You've got your eye on someone?"

"This is a man, and he is also the champion of the Eastern Division in the second stage."

"Wow, a formidable opponent. So, are you confident?"

Meng Chuan rubbed his knuckles as he walked and pondered.

"His energy and blood are no less than mine, and his methods are extremely diverse."

Luo Qin, the leading figure of the Daoist class at the Celestial Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain.

He possesses the top-tier Crane Form Boxing Technique of the Pictographic School, [He was taught the Crane Soaring to the Clouds].

Legend has it that this technique was a rough draft he comprehended from the "Crane Immortal Soaring Through the Clouds" beast king painting, a treasure of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Later, it was improved and optimized by the Heavenly King experts in the Celestial Master's Mansion.

This resulted in a top-level boxing style that combines the Crane Form Boxing posture with divine striking techniques.

This shows that Luo Qin's comprehension of the Crane Form is extremely astonishing!

Moreover, he also possesses the Xuanbing Secret Technique and is skilled at using a dragon-patterned magic sword to control his fist techniques, making him a veritable "summoning ice and rain".

In Meng Chuan’s mind, Luo Qin was definitely the biggest obstacle to his trip.

Upon entering the hotel's buffet restaurant, I took a plate and got my food separately from the chef.

Meng Chuan recalled that a few days ago, Zheng Chengcheng had called him and said that she wanted to have another discussion with him.

Recalling the other person's confident tone, a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Zheng Chengcheng's dragon aura was several times stronger than it had been in Taihang Mountain.

He can break it with a single punch now!
Needless to say, Wang Ye from Wudang was a complete stomp on.

Coming to his senses, Meng Chuan started eating.

The matches of the past few days have had nothing to do with the [Northern No. 1 seed].

After attending the opening ceremony tomorrow, I will be able to continue practicing my boxing skills and building up my strength.

Awaiting the great battle!

At night, Meng Chuan returned to his room to practice his boxing.

Afterwards, I responded to the well wishes of many relatives and friends.

Meanwhile, the official website of Beilian University also opened a special column for him called "Champion Express", broadcasting his competition progress in real time.

He also received encouragement from Lu Ang, the garrison commander of the northern region.

I'll be too busy to attend the event. Good luck, bring home the championship and glory for the North!

[Understood, Meng will not fail in his duty to guard the post!]

This is a favor from the Heavenly King, and Meng Chuan will do his utmost to fulfill it.

Because Venerable Yin's attitude had always made him wary, he felt much more at ease if Heavenly King Lu was there to back him up.

As Long Zuochan advanced to the second level, his mental strength became much stronger than before.

I recall that day at Yong'an Martial Arts University, and my conversation with Venerable Yin.

He still remembers two sentences:
"Besides being able to quickly restore strength and stamina, what other uses does your trait have?"

"That day you were seriously injured in the chemical plant, but recovered completely in a short time afterward, was it for the same purpose?"

Principal Yang Huan was closer to him, but he had never asked so many questions so thoroughly before.

Meng Chuan reaffirmed his opinion.

Because of the other person's curiosity about their own traits.

It's a bit too much.
