Translator: 549690339
Han Ye looked at Widow Liu’s fiery gaze, said a few words, and then slipped away.
Who the hell could stand this?
A thirty-year-old woman, as fierce as a wolf or a tiger.
This “Friend of Won” was too bizarre.
Did you see Widow Liu’s devouring gaze? As if she wanted to swallow him whole.
Running, he turned a corner and once again arrived at the brightly lit Liu Manor. With nothing to do, Han Ye thought to try his luck and entered the Bamboo Forest once again.
He watched the martial artists in the inner courtyard practicing martial arts and sparring against each other.
Their movents were agile, their horse stances were solid, their fists whistled in the wind, every move was authentic and well executed.
Han Ye watched with envy.
As one of the martial artists shouted loudly, his fist montarily quickened, their bodies looked as if they were fully drawn bows, their fists flying like the wind, falling like arrows.
“Shua!”
At that mont, a dazzling green light orb fell down with a sound.
Han Ye’s face lit up with joy.
Unexpectedly, there was such a pleasant surprise tonight.
But he couldn’t pick it up now, he could only wait until these martial artists were finished and resting.
The martial artist who was punching earlier slowly withdrew his fist, his face showed joy, and he turned to his companion.
“This Tiger Arm Fist, focusing on the shoulders and arms, is a horizontal training thod for developing muscles and bones. After practicing through the hottest part of sumr and coldest part of winter, I’ve finally mastered it!”
Looking at the solid tal-like arms of these martial artists, one could not help but feel intimidated, as if a single punch could break bones.
But soon, the joy on the martial artist’s face turned into worry as he sighed.
“But there is still a great gap to joining the sect, who knows how difficult the Dragon Sparrow Sect’s test is? Every year many people are eliminated. This ti, it’s only because the eldest son of the Liu Manor has been promoted to inner sect disciple, that we had extra places. In seven days, the Manor will have new candidates, as the old servants by the Young Miss’s side, we cannot slack off.”
With these words, they started punching the wooden stakes in the courtyard.
Listening to this, Han Ye slowly pondered.
Liu Chengfeng, the eldest son of the Liu family.
He had heard of his reputation from the farrs in the manor.
This son had a lot of martial talent. At a young age, he showed the power of a hundred n, and after going to a martial arts school in the city, he had not returned to the Liu Manor for many years.
Now it seems that he had actually joined the Dragon Sparrow Sect and beco a cultivator.
Being promoted to an inner disciple, it seems he was indeed a talented participant.
Liu Lingqi, the Miss of the Liu Manor, probably ca back this ti to follow her brother’s footsteps.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The martial artists in the courtyard were hitting wooden stakes that were as tall as people, making loud banging noises.
Seeing this, Han Ye’s eyes lit up, and he drew a deep breath.
He knew well that only by learning martial arts and then cultivating could he change his status as a tenant farr and truly stand in this world.
At present, it seed like picking up attributes could change his destiny.
And learning martial arts would provide an opportunity.
Two hours had passed, and it was late into the night.
Only then did the martial artists disperse, one after the other, leaving the large courtyard empty.
Han Ye then went to pick up the attribute.
‘Pick up attribute: Fists Masterful 5’
‘Do you want to absorb’
‘Fists Masterful (Green): Your fist technique is proficient, deeply ingrained, and has slightly higher comprehension of boxing.’
‘Fists Masterful (5/100): Your fist technique is proficient, deeply ingrained, and has slightly higher comprehension of boxing.’
Absorb it for !
As the ‘Fists Masterful’ attribute was absorbed into his destiny,
He found his hands involuntarily forming fists, his arm muscles quivering slightly. It seed as if he felt uncomfortable without punching.
A craving spread throughout his body.
But, right now he hadn’t mastered any specific fist technique, and his mind was blank.
However, he had sneakily observed the footwork and moves of these martial artists, and there were so impressions in his mind.
So, he started to try them out following these ntal impressions.
Weirdly, even though normally his mory wasn’t very good, these moves ingrained themselves in his mind as soon as they appeared, as if they were deeply carved.
He thought he wouldn’t be able to rember them and that he would quickly forget. To his surprise, every move ca to mind imdiately and he easily practiced them. He didn’t seem like a beginner at all.
Within the cover of night and a scattering of stars, only the howl of fists could be heard.
Han Ye has left Liu Manor, under a large tree by the brook, he stood in front of the wooden stake, continuously practicing boxing.
This Tiger Arm Fist is not so profound technique, it’s just a very simple martial art. One could say that without the help of a secret elixir for cultivation, its peak potential is limited to horizontal training in the outer sect.
But Han Ye still practiced with great vigor.
Because he knew that even with a Destiny of picking up attributes, he still needed to make a lot of effort to make up for his own shortcomings.
What is accumulation of strength for sudden release?
Not making a sound until the shot that shocks everyone.
The Tiger Arm Fist that took others strenuous cultivation to grasp, was learned by him with ease and rapid progress due to picking up attributes.
With such talent, he ought to seize every opportunity to use it.
He had already taken a lot more advantages than others.
With every punch and every form he throws, sweat splashes everywhere. Han Ye was completely soaked in sweat.
His legs softened, and he collapsed directly onto the reed marsh behind him.
He was panting heavily, feeling as though his strength had been overdrawn, to its limit.
Practicing this Tiger Arm Fist consus a lot of strength once the movents beco standard.
Even though the ‘strength of an ox’ attribute aids in slowly regaining strength, he does not want to move for a short while.
He lay there on the grass, looking up at the stars in the sky.
The silver brilliance of the bright moon sprinkled over each reed, presenting dazzling crystalline light.
“This won’t work. Though I have the strength of an ox, my body still has to bear high-intensity training, And it must supplent a lot of energy. Those martial artists in the courtyard eat at and supplents daily to nourish their bodies, that’s how they can maintain their training.”
“As a tenant farr, it’s too hard for to achieve anything following this lifestyle. I must make so changes to my diet.”
Han Ye seed to have realized sothing, sighing like this.
Because after so period of practice, he had understood that he needs to forge his limbs and abdominal strength to beco solid, and to have enough flexibility to be able to practice these powerful techniques.
Otherwise, there will be no effect.
Without strength to back up any technique, it would be just an empty shell.
Understanding these, Han Ye rested for a while, bathed in the creek, and then returned to the village house.
He took out a small amount of copper coins that he had saved up which was hiding in a layer of his mattress.
These were all left to him by his deceased mother.
He made a decision on the spot.
…
The next day.
Early morning.
“Hurry up, hurry up, we need to reach the Black Cliff Forest before noon. There are many mushrooms and herbs in the forest. We have to sell them to Wan Chun Hall in the county before it gets dark.”
“Be careful of wild beasts, if you encounter them, avoid at all costs. Otherwise, consider yourself unlucky.”
Liu, the man in charge, with a cigarette in his mouth, sat on his horse, puffing on his pipe with an indulgent expression, he didn’t forget to yell out a reminder.
Han Ye, among the crowd, quietly approached Liu’s horse and whispered,:
“Liu, is it true that the west side of the Black Cliff Forest is teeming with wild beasts?”
“Yes, why?”
Liu glanced at Han Ye, comnting absent-mindedly.
He had an impression of this young lad, who was known to be literate. The village children like him quite a lot but he usually kept to himself.
“It’s nothing, just asking.”
Han Ye delivered several copper coins to Liu’s outstretched hands.
Seeing this, Liu’s eyebrows raised.
“What is this…”
“Buy yourself so good tobacco, I just want to have a leisurely day today.”
A smile appeared on Liu’s lips, he silently pocketed the copper coins and his mood improved considerably. He nodded and said,
“I’ve found that soone needs to guard the surroundings of the camp and hey, you are doing it today. Don’t go far.”
“Okay, understood!”
Han Ye naturally agreed.
Since he had arrived at the Black Cliff Forest today, he had to go big.
Can’t leave here without an achievent.
