Chapter 5 Our martial arts school is the most reasonable
Looking at Mo Xiaobei who was still practicing in the open field, Li Ming felt as if he had seen a huge treasure, and his heart was filled with joy.
Just imagine, if I could get a few more talented disciples in the future, and then teach them relevant martial arts techniques, I could earn a lot just by lying down every day...
That scene is exciting just thinking about it!
After practicing for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Li Ming asked Mo Xiaobei to go back.
In the next three days, Li Ming taught Mo Xiaobei the complete version of the 36 small grappling techniques.
Mo Xiaobei is also very competitive. Not only does he learn quickly, but he also has a very positive attitude.
If she were asked to go to school to memorize lessons, Mo Xiaobei would feel that the days were long. However, when it comes to learning martial arts, Mo Xiaobei doesn't need any urging and is very motivated.
With her interest and talent, it can be seen that she is indeed a good material for martial arts.
Even after she went back, Li Ming often received pop-up prompts from the system, which showed that Mo Xiaobei was also actively studying martial arts in private.
[Apprentice Mo Xiaobei's understanding of the small grasping technique has improved, and he has gained attribute points +3]
[Apprentice Mo Xiaobei's proficiency in small grappling techniques has increased, gaining attribute points +6]
……
In just three days, Li Ming easily earned nearly a thousand attribute points from Mo Xiaobei.
This made Li Ming, who had already seen the value of attribute points, very excited.
After consuming these attribute points, Li Ming finally succeeded in exchanging for the internal strength he had cultivated for several years, and upgraded the Xiaoyao Heart Sutra to the third level again.
At the moment of successful improvement, quantitative change led to qualitative change. Li Ming suddenly felt a warm current surging through his body, and at the same time, his own meridian internal strength seemed to be undergoing a transformation.
The strong energy that has already mixed into one, and spread throughout the body, has produced a strange resonance and fusion with the extremely pure free and easy internal energy in the meridians. The internal energy in the dantian flows along the meridians in a special way, breaking through the acupoints that felt extremely blocked before.
When he opened his eyes again, Li Ming felt that his control over himself and his understanding of martial arts had reached a new level.
He successfully broke through the Gang realm and became a post-natal warrior.
At this stage of the acquired realm, one is already considered a master in the martial arts world.
Not only has the purity and scale of the internal force undergone a qualitative leap, but it can also be transformed into external, out-of-body true qi, which is the watershed between ordinary warriors and true martial arts masters.
I heard that the owner of Guangyang Prefecture's Dacheng Martial Arts School was at the Postnatal Realm and had already accumulated a large fortune.
The improvement in strength gave Li Ming greater confidence.
-
In Tongfu Inn.
It was another busy day, but Tong Xiangyu had a worried look on her face. She came over from the backyard and grabbed Bai Zhantang who was serving as a waiter.
"Old White, have you seen Xiao Bei?"
"Isn't the academy closed today? Maybe he went out to play."
"It would be great if that were the case." Tong Xiangyu's face was still filled with worry.
"I feel like something's wrong with Xiao Bei recently. She's been very quiet these past few days. I haven't heard of her bullying her classmates or causing trouble."
Bai Zhantang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Isn't this a good thing?"
"But I always feel like something is wrong. I don't know where she has been recently. Zhan Tang, go back and secretly see what she is busy with, otherwise I will always feel uneasy."
After hearing what Tong Xiangyu said, Bai Zhantang also felt strange. Is the Mo Xiaobei who doesn't cause trouble still her?
"Okay, wait a minute, boss. I'll go look for it."
Bai Zhantang threw down the rag and ran out.
The scale of Qixia Town is neither big nor small, but with the thief saint Bai Zhantang's legs and tracking ability, he easily ran back and forth, confirmed that Mo Xiaobei did not leave the town, and quickly found Qianming Martial Arts School.
He found an empty corner, jumped up lightly, and peeked over the wall. As expected, he saw Mo Xiaobei and Li Ming fighting with each other.
In just a moment, Bai Zhantang's eyes were wide open.
When did Xiaobei become so powerful!
At this time, Mo Xiaobei's moves were rigorous and neat, and he had already mastered the small grappling technique to a high level. The only thing he lacked was probably his temperature.
But then, Bai Zhantang's attention shifted to Li Ming.
A closer look made Bai Zhantang's eyes widen in shock.
Although Li Ming did not show his true strength, with Bai Zhantang's keen eyesight, he could see at a glance that he had actually reached the acquired realm!
For a moment, Bai Zhantang thought he might have seen it wrong.
When Li Ming first came to Qixia Town to open a martial arts school, Bai Zhantang explored his strength and found that he was just an ordinary Qi realm martial artist.
But why...
If he hadn't been a master who was deliberately hiding his strength from the beginning, he would have been able to rapidly improve to the post-natal realm in just a few days...
This speed is amazing even to the Thief Saint.
Bai Zhantang himself is only at the peak of the acquired realm. He has been stuck here for several years and has not been able to break through.
Could it be that Li Ming really got some incredible opportunity?
However, in Li Ming, Bai Zhantang did not see the excitement and complacency that most people have after getting benefits suddenly. Instead, he saw a steadiness and restraint that was far beyond expectations of his age.
This made Li Ming's image in Bai Zhantang's eyes even more mysterious.
Li Ming's techniques and body movements, which even Bai Zhantang could not see clearly, were obviously extremely advanced martial arts that were beyond his understanding!
Bai Zhantang's expression was solemn. Now he actually felt that he was not sure he could defeat Li Ming!
This made him even more certain that the secret of Li Ming was not simple at all!
However, why did he teach Mo Xiaobei martial arts? Did he have any ulterior motive?
Just as I was thinking about it, Mo Xiaobei in the yard finished his practice and took a short break.
Over the past few days, Li Ming's image in Mo Xiaobei's eyes has become increasingly taller, especially in the process of teaching himself, the strength he inadvertently demonstrated is much more powerful than that of Sister Xiao Guo.
"Yes, Master."
Mo Xiaobei suddenly asked: "When you are traveling in the martial arts world and meet someone who is not your type, what should you do?"
Li Ming thought for a moment, and educated Mo Xiaobei earnestly, "Of course we have to reason with the other party. Although we are martial artists, we must also understand that we cannot be arrogant because of our martial arts. Many things cannot be solved by violence alone. We in Qianming Martial Arts School advocate convincing others with reason. We must convince the other party by reasoning with them."
"Oh."
This answer made Mo Xiaobei a little disappointed and felt quite boring. Bai Zhantang, who was secretly observing, was moved when he heard this. He looked at Li Ming deeply and left quietly.
Just based on this sentence, Bai Zhantang concluded that Li Ming was definitely not a person with bad intentions, and he felt much more relieved.
In fact, Bai Zhantang had no objection to Mo Xiaobei learning martial arts, otherwise he and Xiao Guo would not have taught Mo Xiaobei some boxing and kicking skills in private.
What he was afraid of was that Mo Xiaobei would acquire powers beyond his imagination before his mind matured, and eventually become a bad person and go astray.
Now it seems that Bai Zhantang was very reassured by Li Ming's guidance of Mo Xiaobei, so he did not stop him.
Li Ming's mystery made Bai Zhantang feel that this might be Mo Xiaobei's opportunity!
As long as they are sure that Li Ming is not a bad person and has no ill will towards them, it will be fine. After all, who doesn't have secrets? As the great thief, isn't he also hiding his identity?
Bai Zhantang smiled self-deprecatingly at the thought.
But he didn't know that after he left, the conversation between Li Ming and Mo Xiaobei continued.
"What if the other party is unwilling to listen to your reason?" Li Ming asked Mo Xiaobei.
Mo Xiaobei shook his head blankly.
Li Ming waved his fist: "What is this called?"
"fist."
"No, this is called reason."
"Usually when we talk to people, it's best if we can make them understand. Generally speaking, if they are good people, they will definitely communicate with you properly."
"But if we encounter a bad guy who is stubborn and relies on his strength to bully others, and who cannot be persuaded by reason, then the martial arts we have practiced will come in handy. The greater the reason in our hands, the more convincing the reason we speak will be, and the more likely it is that the other party will calm down and listen to us patiently."
"What if you still don't listen?"
"That means our principles are not strong enough. We need to work harder in martial arts training."
Mo Xiaobei's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened.
"Master, I understand!"
Mo Xiaobei nodded heavily, as if he had grasped the key point.
"No wonder I heard that people in the martial arts world are fighting for the Dragon Slaying Sword, but I have never heard of anyone trying to steal the Emei Sect's Heavenly Sword. Nun Miejue must be very reasonable!"
"This boy is teachable!" Li Ming nodded with a smile.
In the next few days, Li Ming did not teach Mo Xiaobei new martial arts.
Her foundation is still shallow. Although she has learned the grappling techniques, it will take some time for her to fully digest them. Currently, Mo Xiaobei can still bring herself dozens to hundreds of attribute points every day.
After all, we also have to consider Mo Xiaobei's growth rate and level of acceptance. We can't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Only a steady stream of income can help.
Recently, more and more people have come to the martial arts school for consultation. Many people have expressed their intention to practice in Qianming Martial Arts School, but are still hesitating and waiting.
They planned to see whether in the next few days there would be martial artists from other nearby martial arts schools coming to challenge them like before, and then make a decision after seeing Li Ming's performance.
But soon after, news came that the bandit activities in Cuiwei Mountain near Qixia Town had become more frequent and rampant. Not only did they dare to rob on the official road, they even looted Shibalipu a few days ago, causing several deaths.
This added a bit of anxiety to the atmosphere in the Seven Heroes Town.
Early in the morning, Li Ming opened the main door of the martial arts gym.
I saw a convoy of goods passing by.
This convoy was from outside and immediately attracted the attention of many residents of Qixia Town.
Li Ming took a quick look and judged from the depth of the ruts on the ground and the creaking sound of the cart that it was carrying a lot of cargo.
The escort convoy consisted of dozens of people, with a few tall horses leading the way in front, and some sturdy guards following behind, all of whom were obviously martial artists.
There was also a striking flag on the vehicle with the word "Longmen" written in large letters!
This is actually the Longmen Escort Agency team!
Mr. Chen, the owner of the rice shop across the street, was the first to recognize it.
Longmen Escort Agency is the largest escort agency in Guanzhong and has a great reputation in the world.
Whenever they encounter escorts from the Longmen Escort Agency, the bullies and bandits on the roads in the mountains and five peaks will show some mercy.
It seems that these people who are guarding the convoy are the escorts and porters of the Longmen Escort Agency.
Li Ming's sight quickly focused on the sturdy bodyguard riding a horse in the front, and he could see that this man had the strength of the acquired realm!
The Longmen Escort Agency convoy stopped at the entrance of Tongfu Inn. As soon as the leading escort got off the horse, Tong Xiangyu's surprised voice was heard.
"Brother Du, why are you here? Is my father okay? Is everything okay at home?"
Tong Xiangyu then went out to greet him.
The leading escort also smiled and bowed respectfully.
"Miss, everything is fine at home. I passed by Qixia Town while on a convoy this time, so I came to see you on behalf of the master."
Then he looked at the people behind him and said, "Okay, everyone, take a break here and we'll continue our journey later."
Upon hearing this, the escorts and porters of Longmen Escort Agency immediately found a place to park the escort vehicle and then went to Tongfu Inn to rest.
The small Tongfu Inn was soon packed with people and was very lively.
Tong Xiangyu's face was full of joy, and she was busy entertaining them.
She was originally the daughter of the Longmen Escort Agency, but she opened an inn here out of spite. Now she finally gets to see her family, how can she not be happy?
The residents of Qixia Town watched for a while, feeling that the Longmen Escort Agency was indeed extraordinary, and then went back to do their own things.
Li Ming originally wanted to turn back and wait to see if anyone came to sign up today, but suddenly he heard a lot of footsteps coming from outside.
"Over there, the Qianming Martial Arts School is right there. Hey, is your school master here? Ask him to come out!"
There was hostility and provocation in his tone.
"Ok?"
Li Ming's steps back paused.
