A Martial Saint Among Men: From Joining a Martial Arts School

"Tch~"

Liang Qiusong looked at everyone and couldn't help but sneer.

Are you three-year-old children? Are you still breastfeeding? Do you need someone to protect you?

You all know what kind of person I am!

Back then, some people predicted that I would never be able to break through to the Dark Force realm in my lifetime! But now, I've already mastered the Dark Force realm! I'm only one step away from the Transformation Force realm!

If I had cowered like you guys back then, I'd probably still be struggling in Mingjin right now!

Besides, I'm not asking you to go and die! That unicorn python is about to lay eggs, and its strength will definitely drop drastically after that. If you don't even dare to try that, you shouldn't bother learning martial arts; go home and nurse!

"I'm willing to go with my third senior brother!"

At that moment, a voice rang out.

Xu Yuan strode out from the backyard, his gaze sweeping over everyone, and coldly snorted, "Third Senior Brother is right! Martial artists must fight for this!"

If you don't even have this much courage, then what's the point of learning martial arts? I'm willing to go hunting the one-horned python with my third senior brother!

"I'd also like to go with my third senior brother!"

"I'll go too..."

"Me too!"

The other senior brothers also seemed to have their fighting spirit ignited, and immediately joined in.

In just a short time, almost all of the dozen or so people present had signed up.

Even Ren Yan was swayed into getting excited and wanted to sign up, but Chu Xuan glared at him and stopped him.

Liang Qiusong nodded in satisfaction, then his gaze fell on the positions where Chu Xuan, Dongfang Lin, and Ren Yan were standing.

Of all the people present, only these three remained silent.

"Old Eight, you've been stuck at the Mingjin Dacheng level for three years, haven't you? Why don't you give it a shot?" Liang Qiusong asked Dongfang Lin first, with a playful smile.

Dongfang Lin chuckled and said, "Senior brother, I'm not short of money!"

Liang Qiusong was speechless!

Everyone cursed the rich bastard in their hearts!

Among the disciples of the inner courtyard, apart from the second senior brother Tao Ping, the Lin family of the East is the richest!

Tao Ping is from the Tao family, one of the five major families in the inner city. Needless to say, he is very wealthy, and there is also a master of internal energy in his family!

However, Tao Ping was not the eldest son, which is why he came to the Lu family martial arts school to learn martial arts. Now that Tao Ping has begun to take over the family business, he rarely comes to the martial arts school anymore.

Therefore, among these disciples, Dongfang Lin is the richest!

This reason is impeccable!

Liang Qiusong knew that Dongfang Lin lacked ambition, so he didn't bother to ask him any more questions. His gaze fell on Ren Yan: "Junior brother, are you new to the inner courtyard?"

Ren Yan quickly cupped his hands and said, "Third Senior Brother, my name is Ren Yan, and I just entered the inner courtyard today."

Liang Qiusong nodded: "Take a bone back and make soup later, consider it a gift from your senior brother."

Ren Yan immediately beamed with joy and quickly clasped his hands in thanks.

Liang Qiusong asked him to bring back a bone, not as a sign of disrespect, but as a sign of generosity.

Second-tier beasts are treasures from head to toe; even a single bone can be worth at least ten taels of silver, and they are very difficult to buy.

Liang Qiusong nodded, showing no intention of inviting Ren Yan. Instead, he looked at Chu Xuan and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Chu, aren't you planning to give it your all and try to pass the level within a year?"

Chu Xuan smiled and said, "Third Senior Brother, with my current strength, I won't hold you all back!"

He already harbored a degree of wariness towards Liang Qiusong.

Even if there isn't one, he won't go!

What kind of place is Yunling Mountain? It's fraught with danger!

For those skilled in martial arts, the Ming Jin style is merely the threshold to enter that realm.

If second-tier beasts were so easy to deal with, Liang Qiusong wouldn't have come back to call for reinforcements! He didn't know much about beasts, but he did have some basic knowledge of animals. Some animals are most aggressive during their egg-laying season!

Snakes are one of them!

Even if they actually manage to hunt down that one-horned python, Liang Qiusong will take the lion's share.

The rest, when distributed among everyone, would probably only amount to a few dozen taels!

Why risk your life?

"Okay!"

Liang Qiusong nodded, not intending to persuade him further, and then called the fellow apprentices who had signed up to go aside and discuss it.

"You should go! This is a fantastic opportunity for you!"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan turned his head and saw Lu Xiaoshuang looking at him.

Chu Xuan smiled and said, "Forget it, I'm too weak, I won't join in the fun!"

Lu Xiaoshuang snorted coldly, turned and left, clearly not wanting to say another word to him.

If it weren't for Ye Zhiyi's sake, she wouldn't have bothered to remind her of that.

When she first learned that Chu Xuan had killed Meng Qing in the arena, she thought that although Chu Xuan was not very talented, he was at least full of fighting spirit!

Now it seems I was overthinking things.

Chu Xuan is simply a cowardly, weak, and unambitious person.

Fighting Meng Qing to the death in the ring was probably more about being driven to a dead end by Meng Qing.

"Zhiyi, Zhiyi, you've probably misjudged me this time!"

Lu Xiaoshuang thought to herself, "This kind of person isn't worth spending so much money to cultivate!"

Then, she looked at Xu Yuan, who was standing next to Liang Qiusong, surrounded by the crowd, and whose face was full of fighting spirit!

This is the kind of person Zhiyi needs!

"Junior Brother Chu, did you offend Senior Sister? I have a feeling she doesn't like you!" Dongfang Lin leaned close to Chu Xuan, winking and chuckling.

Ren Yan also looked at him with a gossipy expression.

Chu Xuan rolled his eyes at the two of them, clearly annoyed.

He had only met Lu Xiaoshuang three times: once when he first started learning, once at Ye Zhiyi's place, and this was the third time!

How could I possibly offend them?

Of course, he could probably guess why Lu Xiaoshuang disliked him.

His essence value is about to reach its maximum, and his experience points from the Two Elements Stance are also increasing rapidly.

At this rate, breaking through to the Dark Force realm within a year shouldn't be a problem.

Moreover, he is now quite wealthy, and he can easily buy blood-clotting pills to replenish his qi and blood.

Only someone with a brain fart would risk their life to go to Yunling Mountain.

There's more than just the one-horned python there! Who knows if other strange beasts might appear, or if we might encounter other powerful beings?

As evening approached, Chu Xuan left the martial arts school ahead of time.

It's not that he lacks ambition, he just doesn't want to take unnecessary risks.

While his fellow disciples went to hunt exotic beasts, he had no choice but to spend money on in-game purchases!

However, remembering Cui Jiang's malice at the time, Chu Xuan did not go directly to buy the Blood Clotting Pill, but instead approached Ye Zhiyi, intending to ask her to help him purchase it.

Upon arriving at the Brocade Pavilion, Chu Xuan explained his intentions.

Ye Zhiyi readily agreed: "It's a small matter, I can arrange for someone to purchase it. I thought Young Master Chu came this time to cancel the offering agreement."

She knew that Chu Xuan had started a braised pork business and had even tried it a few times; it was indeed quite delicious.

Although Chu Xuan is no longer making a fortune, he is not short of offerings, so there is no need for him to serve as an offering.

Chu Xuan said with a serious expression, "Miss Ye has treated me with sincerity, how can I break my promise? As long as Miss Ye does not cancel this contract, I will still abide by the original agreement."

"Then I thank Young Master Chu in advance," Ye Zhiyi said with a smile.

At this moment, the maid Xiao Huan came forward and said, "Miss, Miss Lu has arrived, and she brought a martial artist with her. She says she wants to introduce you to a retainer..."

Introducing the offerings?

Both of them were taken aback.
