Seeing Lu Chenzhou’s odd gaze, Wang Gang spoke earnestly,
"What’s the matter? Don’t you think Hard Qi Gong is very useful?"
"That’s true, but the ’Iron Crotch Skill’..."
"This is also a legitimate technique; don’t discriminate okay? Here’s the manual, you can look through it, but don’t learn it just yet. ’Iron Crotch Skill’ is not like ordinary third-class Hard Qi Gong, its cultivation is riskier and requires guidance from a professional teacher."
The risk being, one careless mistake could lead to sterilization.
Lu Chenzhou asked skeptically,
"You know how to do it?"
Wang Gang gave a sheepish smile,
"Hehe... I don’t either. I’m thinking of finding a master of the Iron Crotch Skill to train us, I’m still looking for soone. In the current Martial Arts World, there aren’t many who practice Hard Qi Gong, let alone a niche skill, we’ll have to wait patiently."
Wang Gang was also frightened by Wang Caiying.
Damn, won are too ruthless.
He always spared with n, who understand the importance of their family jewels; no one would attack the groin, the re thought is painful, but cruel won don’t care.
"Alright, thanks a lot."
Lu Chenzhou thought it over, learning another Hard Qi Gong technique wouldn’t be bad. However, he wouldn’t learn any new Martial Arts before the winter exam; he aid to enter Martial Arts University without examination.
He didn’t deny the usefulness of Hard Qi Gong.
It was just necessary to prioritize things properly.
Wang Gang continued,
"Just practicing the ’Arhat Skill’ is not safe enough. My advice is to practice ’Iron Crotch Skill’, ’Iron Armor Skill’, ’Iron Leg Skill’, ’Iron Head Skill’, all of them to achieve a Vajra Unbreakable Body! Of course, since you have second-class ’Arhat Skill’, it’s not necessary to practice upper-body Hard Qi Gong like the ’Iron Armor Skill’."
All four Iron Skills were third-class Martial Arts. They were much easier than ’Arhat Skill’ and ’Vigorous Vajra Palm’, but still ti-consuming and taxing to master them all.
Lu Chenzhou responded,
"So many Martial Arts? How do you manage to practice them all?"
Wang Gang said,
"Chenzhou, breaking through the First Shackles is challenging. It’s manageable up to the Sixth Rank, with our talents, achieving a breakthrough is not tough; it could take as few as several months to half a year.
From Sixth Rank to Seventh, and the cultivation steps beyond the Seventh Rank, require extensive and tedious Water Milling Technique to endure, especially opening up 30 acupoints... extrely difficult! I know many who reached Tenth Rank in Qi-Blood and mastered First Class Fist Techniques, but only managed to open 20 acupoints.
Thus, during the Extre Limit Realm period, many have already graduated from their main Fist Techniques, and besides opening acupoints, they need to find other things to do right? One can’t open acupoints 24 hours a day; that would be unbearably painful. That’s when you can try learning other Martial Arts.
I’m not trying to discourage you.
For people like us, becoming a Martial Artist by the age of 30 is quite an achievent... but not being a Martial Artist is akin to being an ant. If faced with Void Things or those Black Knights with prosthetics, without cross-training techniques, we’d be at a huge disadvantage.
My goal is to achieve Small Success in the four great Iron Skills and Vajra Palm before I beco a Martial Artist, so my ability to defend myself and make small mistakes in combat significantly increases.
Cultivating both internally and externally for a Vajra Unbreakable body, no one under a Martial Artist can match ! Hehe, if I can achieve Great Success or even Perfection, I might even be able to challenge a Martial Artist!"
Wang Gang had a clear vision for his future.
After listening, Lu Chenzhou seriously cautioned,
"In theory that’s true, but this approach might delay your normal Martial Arts Cultivation. Brother Wang, don’t stray from the path... Let’s not worry about other things for now, co and spar!"
He was different from others; he could open acupoints quickly. He didn’t agree with Wang Gang’s thod; learning one Hard Qi Gong technique was enough to save one’s life, additional training could wait until after becoming a Martial Artist. He believed that with his current progress, he could beco a Martial Artist before the age of twenty.
Wang Gang laughed heartily.
"That’s true, let’s master what we have first."
...
The sound of cicadas gradually faded, marking the end of sumr.
Before long, it was September 30.
Stone Lake Division.
Chen Zhen looked at Chen Yuan’s ssage and smiled knowingly.
"Yuan has been performing well recently. He actually ranked among the top thirty in the newcors’ assessnt at Dragon and Tiger Academy; it looks like he might reach the Ninth Rank this year."
Chen Zhen’s greatest pride in life was Chen Yuan.
This child’s future achievents would surely surpass his own, with Martial Artist being just the starting point.
One and a half months had passed since the Hao Tai Virtual Incident, and the police had examined all clues related to the deceased but hadn’t found the mastermind behind the Void Things.
"Could it really just be an ordinary Virtual Disaster?"
Sowhat irritated, he summoned the case officers and asked,
"Have all the people related to Mrs. Lin Bin been investigated?"
"They have."
"Any issues?"
"None. Mrs. Lin Bin’s social circle includes so unemployed won, yoga instructors, and costic surgeons. We’ve summoned and questioned each one, everything is normal."
Chen Zhen rembered sothing and asked with a slight frown,
"What about that Doctor Chen? Was he checked?"
"This person is the deceased’s beautician, and it’s suspected there was so romantic involvent with the deceased, but these are just personal ethical issues. We’ve investigated him secretly, talked to his colleagues, and found no hints of links to any cult."
"Have you examined all of Dr. Chen’s chat records?"
"We have."
"Alright, you may leave."
After work, Chen Zhen drove off in his personal car.

The car’s prompt sounded.

...
October 1st, early morning.
Today was a special day for Lu Chenzhou.
It was the first anniversary of the awakening of the Martial Arts Tree, a day he would never forget.
In front of Tiger Garden, he practiced his Fist Techniques four tis, sweating profusely.
He continued until an alert for progress in ’Tiger Supre Fist’ chid.
After a brief rest, he resud practicing the Flying Swallow Sea Flying routine. He hadn’t neglected this auxiliary Fist Technique too much, and was only one step away from completing his long journey.
At seven o’clock, the quick and agile Qi from the acupoints reshaped the lower part of Lu Chenzhou’s body, ushering his ’Sea Sweeping Body’ into the Great Achievent Realm. With a light jump, like a flying swallow, he swept up a great tree, darted between branches, and then drifted gracefully back to the ground.
"The Swallow Form Fist truly deserves its reputation for agility and lightness. After achieving Great Success, I’m light as a swallow and lift heavy weights easily. Every step is like a dragonfly skimming water, running along eaves, climbing walls and trees, it’s just a breeze... Master said that after reaching Perfection, I could even float on water over short distances."
’Mountain Crossing Body’ excels at short-range agile movents.
’Sea Sweeping Body’ is better suited for extensive roaming and sweeping attacks.
Combined, they allow to easily handle most situations in combat.
