"Master Wu, from your perspective, what do you think of my disciples?"
He Ye’s tone was very sincere and his posture quite humble, which made it quite incredible for the rest of his disciples who knew him well.
He Ye, in the Martial Arts World of Southern F, is a renowned Great Boxer, and in Cape Town, he is infamous, known by many locals as the ’Yaksha Demon’, indicative of his style.
Such a Boxer generally maintains a distance from his disciples on a day-to-day basis, who wouldn’t dare to get too close, feeling imnse pressure. But at this mont, in front of Wu Li, his deanor could be said to be very ’gentle’.
[Choy Li Fut Fist (Master Level)]
[Overall Score: S—(16%)]
[Divine Value: 72 (Kongming)
Power value: 80 (Innate)
Body value: 31 (Thunder Sound)]
This was He Ye’s data. To be honest, these figures weren’t weak, definitely stronger than Wu Li was when he had just defeated Hu Shan.
He Ye’s Divine and Power values were not low, only the Body value was sowhat lacking, probably because he did not have a complete Bone Marrow Transformation thod, and thus couldn’t train it up.
"Master He is too modest. Your disciples all have good Spirit," Wu Li assessed after taking a few looks at the standing disciples of the Martial Arts Hall, giving a fair evaluation.
Even without System Detection, just by feel, Wu Li could tell that the strength of the disciples present was not weak. What’s most important was that every one of them had a certain murderous aura, sothing almost never seen in Boxers or fighters in the dostic combat arenas. Clearly, these individuals had been through real combat and had seen blood.
After hearing Wu Li’s evaluation, He Ye nodded, "Being foreigners here, if we don’t possess spirit, then practicing our fists would be in vain."
"Before you ca, Master Wu, I heard from the Sixth Master of the Zhiyuan Hall that you plan to start a security company, and that you have invited many Masters from Hongn Zhiyuan Hall and Zhiqing Hall to join. May I know if my disciples could also join?"
Wu Li looked at He Ye in surprise, not expecting such a direct approach.
One of his reasons for coming was to invite people from the Shared Guardian Association to join his security company, and before he could start the conversation, He Ye had already taken the initiative to request.
"Of course!" Wu Li agreed imdiately.
He used System Detection to scan all the disciples of the Martial Arts Hall present and found that their strength was not much different from the Red Sticks he brought from ho. Even two of the disciples were close to reaching the threshold of Master Level, with Divine and Power values nearing 60, so he didn’t hesitate at all to agree.
Among the three values of Divine, Power, and Body, having a Divine Value over 60 ans that one has comprehended the Fist Intent, and a Power value over 60 signifies reaching the Returning to Innate level, able to proficiently control Muscle Bone Power.
Thus, now Wu Li truly has eyes like lightning, with just one glance able to clearly discern how far a Martial Artist has co, how far away they are from Master Level? How far from Grandmaster Level?
Seeing that Wu Li agreed so readily, a serious expression cracked into a smile on He Ye’s face, "Then I have to thank Master Wu."
"It should be thanking Master He," Wu Li replied.
After a pause, he asked, "May I ask why Master He would take the initiative to join my security company? After all, the company isn’t officially established yet."
He Ye pointed to the Red Sticks sitting beside him, "Since these Masters have already agreed to join your security company, setting up the company is just a matter of your word."
Don’t be fooled by the fact that these Red Sticks are professional bodyguards; they also enjoyed no small fa in the Martial Arts World in the past. He Ye knew quite a few of them and had even sparred with so of these masters, which is why he said that.
"As for why I want to take the initiative to join, frankly, it’s because I need a favor," said He Ye.
"Uh..."
Wu Li realized that this Master He seed to be a straight shooter, speaking his mind without beating around the bush, not one bit.
However, such a character trait wasn’t off-putting.
Wu Li: "What kind of favor?"
He Ye: "The Shared Guardian Association is currently very short-staffed. If our people join the private security company you run, Master Wu, could we perhaps get priority to hire you for a job?"
"What job?" Wu Li asked.
He Ye: "Naturally, security jobs. We now need a large number of private bodyguards."
Wu Li perked up. One of his goals for this trip was to understand the security issues facing overseas Chinese, and now it seed he could get straight to the heart of the matter. "Why do you need so many private bodyguards?"
He Ye glanced at the cara that had been filming all along and began, "Because there have recently been several kidnappings targeting local Chinese rchants."
Wu Li frowned: "What’s the reason?"
He Ye shook his head: "It’s not clear yet, but it’s very likely that soone is orchestrating all this because the targeted Chinese rchants are all mbers of our Shared Guardian Association."
Wu Li hesitated for a mont before asking, "Did you inform the embassy?"
He Ye shook his head slightly: "We did, but it’s not very effective."
Hearing this, Chen Gang’s heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively wanted to caution Wu Li, especially since it was being livestread and the number of viewers in the stream had already surpassed three million.
The livestreams of Seeking Martial Arts always pushed the limits of broadcasting, with all sorts of real fights, gun battles, and even terrorist attacks being aired. If this were any other strear, they might have been banned by now, but Seeking Martial Arts could continue to broadcast because they had upper-level support.
And that support ca because Wu Li’s actions were consistently filled with positive energy; rescuing police, combating drug trafficking, fighting terrorists, etc., were all praiseworthy and worthy of promotion. Even if the limits were pushed a bit too far at tis, it was understandable since it wasn’t intentional. (Note 1)
But support is one thing while being cautious is another. Since it’s live, all sorts of unforeseen events can happen, so the Seeking Martial Arts crew had always prepared ergency asures in advance, though they hadn’t been used so far. However, as the director of the crew, Chen Gang had never let his guard down because the show’s influence was too great. A slight mishap could lead to a major incident.
Chen Gang gave Wu Li a hand signal suggesting that if He Ye was about to say sothing taboo, they would have to interrupt.
He Ye also noticed Chen Gang’s gesture and anxious expression and shook his head: "I’m not saying that the embassy is inactive. The truth is that for us living in a foreign land, the greatest reliance is our nation, and the embassy has given us a lot of help."
Chen Gang breathed a sigh of relief, and Wu Li also nodded: "Then why is it ineffective?"
He Ye: "Because the embassy really is short-staffed, and sotis they even need to rely on local Chinese organizations like ours to handle so matters. So when we encounter issues ourselves, the embassy also finds it challenging to solve our problems quickly."
"Living abroad is never easy," said He Ye with aningful depth.
Note 1: I recall soone asked before—if Wu Li’s livestreaming scale doesn’t get banned? I’ve been aning to give an explanation in the text but kept forgetting. Today is the offical explanation.
PS: Working overti today, so there’s only one update. I’ll make up for it tomorrow. I currently owe 4 updates and 8 updates for the Silver Alliance. I’ll try to catch up within the month.
