At worst, we can use one stick a day, you won’t fail to learn then,\" Huang Longgang said boastfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was bragging, he reached out to touch Jia Hong’s delicate hand, but she discreetly dodged him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Longgang felt a bit embarrassed and turned to look around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far away, Lou Yi was punching and kicking, his chest heaving up and down, his movements fluid and natural, giving off a harmonious feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhan Weida and several unfamiliar disciples surrounded Lou Yi, clicking their tongues in wonder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This junior brother, hasn’t been here more than a couple of days, yet he seems to have already grasped it?\" said a short man in his twenties, his face full of amazement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right, we’ve been practicing for two years, and still don’t get it, it feels like we can’t compare to this little brother,\" another dark-faced man sighed, his expression even darker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If one can grasp the Breathing Technique, they’ve already got one foot in the Martial Artist’s level!\" A third person said enviously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, putting on airs, how can a superior Breathing Technique be mastered so easily!\" Huang Longgang, seeing Lou Yi’s relaxed demeanor, for some reason felt a fire ignite in his heart, \"This kid is quite the actor, a shame he’s not on the stage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t believe at all that Lou Yi could grasp the Breathing Technique in just two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were from the Xu Family or Su Family, that would be different, but he was nothing but a civilian, starting martial arts late...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Clap, clap, clap!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, applause came from outside the circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Breath is steady, punches and kicks are firm, internal and external have fully merged into one, it seems you’ve mastered our sect’s Breathing Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With diligent practice, the Martial Artist’s barrier is right under your feet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chubby Li Yagui walked over with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, Senior Brother!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The older disciples all saluted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lou Yi stopped his Breathing Technique practice and also saluted Li Yagui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one expected that this unassuming man was actually the senior brother of all the disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I remember you just started learning a few days ago, such talent, you younger people are formidable indeed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t deserve it,\" Lou Yi said, \"I’m already older, not a day as a Martial Artist, not a day to relax.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Li Yagui arrived, others also gradually noticed Lou Yi’s presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they learned that he had mastered the Breathing Technique in less than two days, they all expressed amazement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Longgang’s expression was extremely unsightly, the words he just spoke now were figuratively smacking his own face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Longgang, unable to face the situation, snorted and left in a huff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t notice that behind him, Jia Hong cast a look of contempt that was hard for others to observe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After enduring several waves of compliments, the atmosphere gradually settled, and everyone went back to practicing their martial arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gentle voice came beside his ear:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Liu, truly a genius, with time, you will surely break through as a Martial Artist and become a pillar of the Extreme Fist Sect,\" Jia Hong gracefully approached, her figure swaying with natural charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her bright eyes looked intently at Lou Yi, \"This young girl has a question to ask;
