Martial Arts Talent (1)
For three consecutive days, Lin Yan’s life was extremely regular.
With the support of the Emerald Wind Powder, he could practice martial arts almost non-stop every day. Other than the necessary activities such as sleep, he spent almost all his time practicing the Five Animal Hands.
If it was in his previous life, he would definitely not be able to withstand training his body like this.
However, the
Poison Transformation
special effect could be said to be magical. As long as his blood energy was replenished, the fatigue in his body would immediately dissipate.
After three days, he became more and more proficient in practicing the Five Animal Hands. As he took action, his movements gradually became smooth.
The Golden Bodhi Scripture in his mind had a proficiency notification. As long as he followed the fastest way to increase his proficiency, any action would definitely be the most precise.
Therefore, for the past three days, he did not blindly pursue speed. He also spent four hours a day carefully modifying the carving movements to increase the efficiency of his growth.
The only troublesome thing was that he did not dare to train too much in the martial arts arena.
If someone found out that a poor kid like him, who had no money or power, could recover his blood energy so quickly without eating much meat, he would definitely cause a lot of trouble.
Therefore, he only practiced in a narrow single room during the day. At night, when it was dark, he would go to the martial arts arena to perform wantonly.
After three days of diligent cultivation, his proficiency in the Five Animal Hands Technique had already reached 30%.
This morning, Lin Yan rushed to the martial arts arena after sending Xiaozhi off. Today was Eldest Senior Brother’s day to teach. He had accumulated some questions and wanted to ask Eldest Senior Brother.
“Lin Yan!”
He bumped into Yu Qian on the way. She was wearing a similar plain training suit and greeted Lin Yan.
After not seeing each other for three days, her figure had become even more curvaceous. She must have been cultivating non-stop.
She walked to the martial arts arena with Lin Yan and casually asked, “Lin Yan, how’s the practice of the Five Animal Hands?”
“It’s okay.”
“I haven’t seen you in the martial arts arena for the past three days.”
“I’m here at night.”
“Liar. It’s pitch-black at night. You can’t even see anything.”
“Oh.”
“…”
Yu Qian pursed her lips.
She could tell that Lin Yan probably didn’t practice much. He was either delayed by something at home or lazy.
She heard that his family didn’t have any money. She didn’t know what connections he had with Master Kui. Master Kui told him not to enter Dragon Gate Pavilion, but he insisted.
After entering, he slacked off. Wasn’t he just born lazy?
Yu Qian wasn’t familiar with Lin Yan and couldn’t be bothered to say much. She just chatted with him.
When the two of them approached the North Ground, the men in the field raised their hands to greet Yu Qian.
“Senior Brother Wei…”
“Senior Brother Lin…”
“Senior Sister Le…”
Yu Qian responded to them one by one. Over the past three days, she had made many friends based on her beauty and politeness.
When she arrived in front of a tall and thin young man, her cheeks were slightly red. She said shyly, “Hello, Senior Brother Bai.”
The lanky young man’s eyes were burning as he smiled eagerly. “Junior Sister Yu, do you have any other questions today? Do you need me to guide you?”
“Thank you, Senior Brother Bai. I haven’t figured out the problem yesterday. Let me practice again.”
“Sure, sure.”
Senior Bai saw Lin Yan standing beside Yu Qian and recalled that he had been talking to Yu Qian all the way here. His face instantly stiffened. “You’re Lin Yan, right? You didn’t come to the martial arts arena for three consecutive days. If you’re so lazy, how can you have any achievements in martial arts?”
Lin Yan was baffled. He cupped his hands and said, “Senior Brother is right.”
“Learn more from Junior Sister Yu. She’s talented and has a good family background, but she’s still so hardworking! Diligence can make up for your lack of talent. The less talented you are, the more hardworking you have to be. Otherwise, what’s the difference between you and trash? Hmph, Junior Sister Yu, come, come here to practice…”
Lin Yan shook his head secretly and walked to the side to warm up.
“Hehe, how is it? It doesn’t feel good to be taught a lesson, right?”
Lin Yan turned around and saw that the person who spoke was Wei Yan.
“Senior Brother Big Yan.”
Wei Yan waved his hand and pointed at Senior Brother Bai. “That guy surnamed Bai is not very good at martial arts. He relies on the fact that his father is the registrar of Jing’an District and has some status. He’s like a big shot at Wu Yard. Tsk, tsk, tsk.”
There was a hint of jealousy in his tone, especially when he looked at Yu Qian, who was being fawned over by Senior Bai.
He probably wanted to find someone to complain to when he talked to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan changed the topic. “Senior Brother Big Yan, I wonder if you know a senior brother with the surname Wang from Dragon Yard?”
Wei Yan was taken aback. “Why are you asking him?”
“I met this senior brother yesterday.”
Wei Yan leaned close to him and said in a low voice, “There’s only one senior brother with the surname Wang in Dragon Yard, Wang Qinggang! He’s incredible. It’s said that he’s a disciple of an influential family in the inner circle. Even that Bai guy is nothing in front of him, let alone us!”
Wei Yan extended his little finger.
An influential family in the inner circle? They were actually in Dragon Gate Pavilion.
Wei Yan said softly, “This Senior Brother Wang is from an aristocratic family and looks down on us junior brothers from the Wu Yard. He beats and scolds us at every turn. If you meet him again in the future, you have to stay away from him.”
“I see. Senior Brother Wei, let’s not talk about this anymore. I have some doubts about my cultivation. Can I ask you for guidance?”
Wei Yan nodded nonchalantly. “Alright, try it out.”
Seeing that Lin Yan had started practicing, he took a closer look.
“Eh? Junior Brother Lin, your martial arts skills are not bad. You’ve put in a lot of effort.”
Wei Yan was slightly surprised. He originally thought that Lin Yan had been slacking off for the past three days, but now that Lin Yan had taken on a stance and circulated his energy, it immediately gave him a sense of skillfulness.
