“Sir, we’re here, this is the place!”
“Are you sure?”
Dressed in a dark-colored robe and sporting a meticulously trimmed scruffy beard, Jiang Bei looked upward at the house in front of him, then lowered his gaze towards the yamen runner standing before him.
“I’d stake my life and fortunes on it, sir. The young man you’re looking for is dwelling here.”
The express constable from Anqing Official Residence nodded and bowed deeply. He was a significant figure around these parts, and finding a young man with features as distinctive as the one they were looking for posed no issue for him. How could he possibly be wrong?
“That gentleman…”
The yamen runner tried to elaborate further, but Jiang Bei raised his hand to stop him. The yamen runner dutifully fell silent as the recently-promoted warrior took a moment to listen quietly.
Despite the sound of lake waves hitting the shore, Jiang Bei could still hear the whooshing sound of weapons being swung in the house before him. “Is someone practicing spear skills?”
Jiang Bei felt a twisted smile creeping onto his face as he felt the wind and listened to the noise from the house. This expression gave the yamen runner an uncomfortable shiver. Jiang Bei seemed like a blood- thirsty beast itching for a fight, making the yamen runner question his decision to cooperate with this new superior official.
“And he said he doesn’t practice martial arts? Does he think he can fool me?”
“Si…sir!”
“You may leave!”
“Yes, yes. I am leaving now. But, please remember, you are in Prefecture City, not in the middle of nowhere! Do not cause any trouble.”
Though trembling in fear, the yamen runner managed to offer a reminder before he scurried off. The guest in the house was now on his own.
“Humph! Ignorant fool, it’s me who should be praying for luck!”
Glancing at the departing runner, Jiang Bei, who could no longer contain his excitement, leapt the wall and stealthily entered the house under cover of darkness. He then tuned in to the increasingly shrill sound of the whipping wind – the cry of the air.
“Truly a warrior. He should be focusing on martial arts training. What’s the point of joining the Imperial Examination? If one is highly skilled in martial arts, the government will naturally invite us to serve!”
Just within a day, Jiang Bei had achieved a new rank and become an official state enforcer. He stood still, listened for a while, and then went towards the direction from where the sound was coming.
Through the bamboo trees, he heard the sound of water, went a few steps further and passed a unique landscape. As he did this, a figure clad in golden armor leapt into view. But the person before him was not the white-clothed teenager swinging a spear he had expected to see. Instead, it was a figure garbed in golden armor, his body large as if he was a youngster in armor, and the weapon he was wielding was a Halberd, its movement floating like a dragon’s clear shadow.
Clang-
The armored figure, Feng Qing’an, wielding the Thunder Sea Halberd like a
dancing dragon, paused to look at the weird man emerging at the edge of the courtyard with a twisted expression on his face.
“Young Master Feng, I, Jiang Bei, came uninvited tonight, and I wish to learn from you. I hope you won’t hold back!”
Jiang Bei looked at the armoured figure, bowed with his hands folded, and without waiting for a reply, launched an attack. As he did this, his True Qi, which had been tempered with killing intent, took the form of a tangible tiger’s head and roared out.
Roar!
The armored figure practicing martial arts transformed into a person and his eyes lit up as he saw this. He stabbed the Thunder Sea Halberd into the ground, abandoned it, clenched his fists, and welcomed the uninvited challenger. “Hahaha, well-played, Young Master!”
Upon witnessing the figure in the armor easily dispel his True Qi with just a casual punch, Jiang Bei was not alarmed, but elated.
His previous blow had only been meant to test the capabilities of this young man, to see if he qualified to be his opponent. Injuring the young man at this stage would not have been wise. After all, they were in the city, not a place where he could act recklessly.
The results of his test brought him immense satisfaction. Not only was the young man formidable enough to be his opponent, but the armor he was wearing was also made of an extraordinary material. This meant he could go all out without fear of harming his opponent.
Against this wild and overzealous challenger, the armored youngster’s response had the strength of a pounding mountain, which only excited Jiang Bei even more. His shouting echoed sporadically, and after a few rounds of combat, he noticed something amiss.
“Young Master Feng, your martial arts talent is superb and you’ve mastered a variety of boxing techniques. However, it seems like you’ve never fought anyone before, which isn’t good for warriors. Only through combat with formidable opposition can we fully assimilate and master what we’ve learned.”
Upon encountering a young warrior with exceptional talent but apparent fatal flaws, Jiang Bei’s excitement intensified. He couldn’t help offering instruction mid-combat, pointing out his opponent’s shortcomings.
“Young Master Feng, the Thunder Fist isn’t used like that. Your punches are too rigid. Watch me!”
After having another round of bout, Jiang Bei immediately couldn’t stop blabbering once he noticed the armoured figure using a style of boxing he had learnt in his youth..
