Chapter 20: Five Levels in One Day

“Senior Brother Fang, you’re the one in charge of this batch of newcomers.” Gu Shengcai found Fang Han.

“You don’t know, but these brats really pissed me off today.” Fang Han complained. “A bunch of pampered young masters and young mistresses. They complain that they’re tired after only a few minutes of boxing practice. They can’t even master the basic skills no matter how many times they’re taught.”

Gu Shengcai smiled and did not say anything. Fang Han was a well-known strict instructor, and the ‘few minutes’ that he said had to be treated as a few hours.

Even the black-plate disciples in the dojo couldn’t handle his training method, let alone the apprentices.

“By the way, I just met an unfamiliar little brat earlier. He was actually leaning on the courtyard wall and watching others cultivate. He’s really working hard.” Fang Han praised.

“Then why didn’t Senior Brother Fang take him in as a disciple? Why don’t you personally train him?” Gu Shengcai was puzzled. Senior Brother Fang was an apprentice who liked to work hard.

“I’ve touched his bones, and it’s not just a little bit lacking. Also, that brat already has a cultivation realm. He’s probably an apprentice who entered through a small trial.” Fang Han shook his head in regret. “Not only did he have poor aptitude, but he had also cultivated other cultivation techniques with a mixture of Qi and blood.”

As long as he had one less of the two, he would have snatched him over and personally trained him.

“What a coincidence. The person I wanted to talk to you about is also a little brat who came in through a trial.” Gu Shengcai chuckled. He then handed Fang Han a list.

“Qin Huai established the Liu family’s apothecary. Isn’t that the kid who slaughtered the Blackhawk Gang? He actually used the Qi cultivation technique to reach the second refining.”

Fang Han looked at Qin Huai’s information on the list, feeling both surprised and regretful.

“His talent is too poor. Maybe it’s because it’s compatible with the Yang Qi Gong.” Fang Han had the same judgment as Gu Shengcai. Talent and cultivation techniques were two choices. Some seemingly useless guys might have an extraordinary affinity with a certain cultivation technique.

“He has fifty levels of the Qi-nurturing technique. He’ll definitely be faster when he starts to practice the breathing technique.” Gu Shengcai instructed, “Senior Brother, you should be mentally prepared. Also, inform the apprentices. Don’t let your state of mind become unstable and your will become weak because of Qin Huai.”

“Alright, I know.” Fang Han nodded, then sighed. “It’s a pity that such a handsome boy is a weakling.”

“Senior Brother Fang, don’t jump to conclusions so quickly. What if this kid has a good affinity with the breathing technique?” Gu Shengcai dissuaded him.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, not thinking much of it. The compatibility of Yang Qi skill was good, but that didn’t mean that it was compatible with the breathing technique.

Although the two were from the same sect, they were worlds apart. Moreover, compatibility was pure metaphysics. No one could tell.

However, if one person had good compatibility with two cultivation techniques, the probability was so small that it could be ignored.

“It’s a pity, a real pity,” Fang Han mumbled, shook his head, and left.

…

At this moment, the main character, Qin Huai, had already visited all five drill grounds of the Changshan Dojo.

He had a thought and looked at his personal panel.

Name: Qin Huai

[Cultivation Methods: Breathing Technique (level 5, 495/1000), Qi nurturing Technique (level 50, 7/1000), Breath Control Technique (level 10, 501/1000), Thunderflash Technique (level 0, 100/1000)]

[Skills]: [Alchemy (advanced, 571/1600) ], [Forging (intermediate, 73/400)]

[Stage: Level 2 Blood Refinement]

“I’ve reached eternal Qi technique level 5 on the first day.” Qin Huai heaved a sigh of relief. “At this rate, will I be able to reach level 10 by tomorrow?”

Qin Huai felt that happiness had come too suddenly. He had collected about 5,500 experience points for the breathing technique in a day.

Actually, he was glad that the Thunderbolt Dojo had rejected him. Only then could he enter the Changshan Dojo, which had the most apprentices among the eight major martial arts centers.

Although Luo Ya had said that the Changshan Dojo was ranked at the bottom of the eight major martial arts centers, it had a lot of people. The more people there were, the more experience points he could gain.

By that time, even if the Changshan Dojo was ranked at the bottom, he would still be able to increase his strength. He could also soar to the sky.

“At first, I was confused by the so-called strongest dojo and Reihom. Now, it seems that the Changshan Dojo is more suitable for me.

“No matter how strong the cultivation technique is, it can’t resist the suppression of the realm. If I can’t beat the people from the other dojos at the same level, then I’ll beat them at a higher level.

“If one realm can’t do it, then let’s try two realms. There will always be realms that they can’t cross.”

Qin Huai muttered to himself. Moreover, the high-level martial artists in the Changshan Dojo could drink more Qi and blood soup and Qi and blood pills.

To him, this place was heaven.

“Although the experience points I can gain will decrease as my breath enhancement technique levels up, with the support of a few hundred people, I think I’ll be able to reach level 3 blood refinement realm much faster than the geniuses in the dojo.”

As for Gu He, there was still a lot of time. He would slowly settle this score.

Qin Huai returned to the Luo family and told the good news to Luo Ya and the others.

Luo Fei was overjoyed and held another big banquet for everyone in the house to eat.

“Now that the prices of goods in Pingnan City are soaring, the surrounding villages and towns are also suffering from disasters. You can’t see it, but I, your father-in-law, am well-informed.

“The world is in danger, so we must be extremely careful. But you don’t have to worry. The Luo residence has been in business for so many years, and it still has some savings.

“The martial arts center is not like the city. There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons there, and there are many experts! You must be careful in your daily life.”

Luo Fei was holding a wine pot, and his face was already red.

‘Even those apprentices who are not as good as you are mostly descendants of rich and famous merchants. You can’t underestimate them.

“But! Our Luo family won’t cause trouble, and we’re not afraid of trouble!

“If there’s really someone who wants to attack us, you can go all out! As long as his father is not the city lord of Pingnan City or the head of the eight major martial arts centers, father-in-law can help you!”

“Father!” Luo Ya blushed.

“Master, you’re drunk.”

Yu Xin pulled the drunk Luo Fei and got up to make him some soup.

“Nonsense! I’m not drunk!”

Luo Fei waved his arms wildly. “Even if his father is the city lord, we can just run overnight and live in another city.

“But there’s a condition for us to move. You have to marry my daughter first.”

Bang! Bang!

Luo Fei’s voice hadn’t even faded when he collapsed on the dining table. In the next second, his snoring was already deafening.

“My father…”

“I’ll carry Uncle back.” Qin Huai stood up silently and carried the chubby Luo Fei into the bedroom. After that, he went to the side room.

It was a harmonious night. Early the next morning, Qin Huai was about to leave the house.

He saw Mother Luo, Yu Xin, anxiously holding some beddings, pots, pans, and ladles. She then gave them to him and said, “Entering the dojo is like entering a new world. You must live in harmony with your fellow disciples, eat more, cultivate seriously.”

Yu Xin rambled on as she checked the things Qin Huai had brought.

Qin Huai was in a daze when he saw her. It was as if he was seeing his mother when he first went to university in his previous life.

“If anything happens at home, you must come to the Changshan Dojo to find me!” Qin Huai left a message.

After coming to this world, this was the first time he felt the warmth of home that he had not felt for a long time. Whether it was Luo Ya or the Luo couple, they were all very good to him.

Especially after Father Luo’s drunken words last night and Mother Luo’s intimate actions.

“I will keep protecting this peace and keep getting stronger,” Qin Huai secretly swore.
