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

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past month, Chu Xuan's essence value had long been perfected.

While practicing martial arts at the martial arts school, he also focused on practicing the Heart-Shattering Palm at home.

The result was not as exaggerated as he had imagined.

The speed at which the Heart-Shattering Palm improves is about three to four times that of Bajiquan!

And that's amazing enough!

He might not need it now, because he can master the Two Elements Stance earlier than he can master the Heart-Shattering Palm. But once he breaks through to the Dark Force stage, he can focus his attention on the Heart-Shattering Palm.

That afternoon.

Xu Yuan and his group, who had followed Liang Qiusong to the Yunling Mountains to hunt the unicorn python, have also returned.

A group of people carried a huge python through the city, swaggering and swaggering, causing countless gasps of surprise in the inner city.

Although they were all disheveled and somewhat embarrassed, their eyes shone brightly and their faces were filled with the joy of a bountiful harvest.

When the crowd escorted Liang Qiusong and Xu Yuan back to the martial arts school, it caused another sensation.

Besides the enormous carcass of the unicorn python, there was also a huge wild boar, comparable in size to an adult bull, with tusks like ivory!

"It's a saber-toothed boar!"

"A fully grown saber-toothed boar must cost over a thousand taels of silver, right?"

"I heard that Junior Brother Xu Yuan hunted down this saber-toothed boar all by himself..."

"What? Xu Yuan was all alone? That means he made over a thousand taels this time..."

"How could it only be a few thousand taels? Don't forget that Xu Yuan also contributed to the Unicorn Python incident..."

The crowd gasped in astonishment as they surrounded the two enormous prey.

Even Lu Tong was alarmed and came out from the backyard.

"Master, your disciple has returned!"

Xu Yuan stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"Did you kill this saber-toothed boar all by yourself?"

Lu Tong stared at the saber-toothed boar on the ground and asked in a deep voice.

Liang Qiusong stepped forward and explained with a smile, "Master, it was indeed Junior Brother Xu who killed him! None of us lifted a finger!"

Lu Tong stared at Xu Yuan and indeed noticed that Xu Yuan's demeanor was different from before. It was a transformation that could only be achieved after truly experiencing battle.

"Good! You did a great job! You didn't disappoint your teacher!"

Lu Tong patted Xu Yuan on the shoulder heavily, his face full of admiration.

"Come on, follow me to the backyard, and let's tell you all about your experiences..."

Soon, Liang Qiusong and Xu Yuan followed Lu Tong to the backyard.

After the three left, the other disciples began to inquire about their hunting experience.

"You wouldn't believe it, the Yunling Mountains are full of treasures. We hunted more than just these two, but unfortunately, we couldn't carry them all, so we had to abandon them..."

"I'll just be an assistant this time, and I'll get a few dozen kilograms of python meat! That should be enough for the second round of trials."

"I was lucky enough to find a unicorn python egg..."

Hearing these inner court disciples boasting, several disciples who had missed this opportunity immediately beat their chests in regret.

I regretted not being at the martial arts gym those few days, otherwise I would have gone with them.

All the brothers and sisters who went hunting this time earned at least a hundred taels of silver!

Over a hundred taels a month!

This is an absolute steal!

Even Dongfang Lin felt some regret at this moment.

He wasn't envious of these people making money, but rather that the meat of those exotic beasts was incredibly difficult to buy, even with money. Besides, the experiences his fellow disciples had just heard were thrilling.

These people have clearly tasted success and are already discussing going hunting in the Yunling Mountains again in a few days.

Hunting is much more lucrative than offering sacrifices!

Chu Xuan listened for a while, then went back to cultivating.

[Energy Value: 500/500]

[Small Completion of Two-Element Stance (2783/3000)]

[Bajiquan Minor Mastery (2043/3000)]

[Minor Mastery of Heart-Shattering Palm (1024/3000)]

【Sky Ladder Vertical (314/10000)】

Chu Xuan put away the panel, a smile appearing on his lips.

With a sufficient supply of Blood Clotting Pills, his progress was rapid even without hunting exotic beasts.

"It looks like it won't be more than a month before we can try again!"

a few days later.

Dongfang Lin ran up to him and said mysteriously, "Guess where Xu Yuan went to take up his post?"

Chu Xuan ignored him and continued practicing his stance.

Dongfang Lin chuckled and said, "You'd never guess!"

Chu Xuan calmly asked, "It wouldn't be Qianjin Pavilion, would it?"

"Well……"

This time, it was Dongfang Lin's turn to be dumbfounded.

He stared at Chu Xuan in disbelief: "You knew all along?"

Chu Xuan shook his head: "Since you've come to tell me this, it means that the place Xu Yuan is temporarily assigned to must be related to me! And there are only a few places that are related to me. The Bai family, he can't go back! Eliminating the others, that leaves only Qianjin Pavilion!"

Dongfang Lin grinned, "You little brat, really..."

"Then why don't you guess who recommended it!" Dongfang Lin chuckled.

Chu Xuan had a vague idea of ​​the answer in his heart, but he still wisely shook his head.

"It's my third senior brother!"

Dongfang Lin chuckled.

Chu Xuan remained outwardly calm, but his heart skipped a beat.

It really was Liang Qiusong!

Liang Qiusong had recommended him for a temporary post at Qianjin Pavilion, but he managed to turn it down by using the Bai family connections.

Although he didn't know what Liang Qiusong was planning, he was sure it wouldn't be anything good.

As for Xu Yuan...

That's all!

Seeing that Chu Xuan remained silent, Dongfang Lin assumed he had regretted his decision and comforted him, "Junior Brother Chu, not going to Qianjin Pavilion might not be a bad thing for you..."

Chu Xuan looked at Dongfang Lin: "Eighth Senior Brother, do you know something?"

"Cough cough..."

Dongfang Lin coughed lightly, "I'm just a spoiled brat, what would I know?!"

After saying that, he turned and ran away.

Several days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Yuan and his group set off again for the Yunling Mountains to hunt.

The number of people is about the same as last time.

Several senior students had accumulated enough resources and didn't go. But those who missed the opportunity before were able to make up for it this time.

Liang Qiusong didn't go either.

Instead, he went into seclusion, saying he wanted to break through to the Transformation Realm!

Although Dongfang Lin was tempted last time, he still didn't go when the time came!

After the group left, Dongfang Lin and Ren Yan came to Chu Xuan's side.

Dongfang Lin asked playfully, "How many of them do you think will make it back unharmed this time?"

"Really?" Ren Yan said, somewhat unconvinced. "Last time, the senior brothers didn't encounter any danger, did they?"

"You idiot!"

Dongfang Lin rolled his eyes at him, annoyed. "Last time we went, Third Senior Brother was there! And..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "Didn't you notice that after they went hunting last time, our senior brother hasn't shown up at the martial arts school?"

Ren Yan's eyes widened immediately: "Eighth Senior Brother, you mean... last time, Senior Brother actually..."

"nonsense!"

Dongfang Lin said irritably.

"If the senior brother says he will secretly protect you, can that still be called training? It's more like going on a trip!"

Hehe, this time, the eldest brother stayed home the whole time! Don't they realize that if Yunling Mountain were truly covered in gold, would they even have a chance?

The most dangerous creatures in Yunling Mountain have never been the strange beasts…

Chu Xuan didn't speak, but listened quietly to their conversation.

The most dangerous creature in Yunling Mountain is not the strange beasts, but rather the people!

And indeed, Dongfang Lin's prediction came true!

This time, part of the hunting party returned in less than ten days.

A dozen or so people, supporting each other, returned to the martial arts school, their bodies covered in blood!

One of them was even carried back!

No harvest!

When they arrived at the outer courtyard, they could no longer hold on and all collapsed to the ground, their faces filled with relief at surviving a disaster!

Some people were so moved that they burst into tears.
