Chapter 60: Martial arts should strive for the first step by step

Wu Yuan!

Lin Chen and Lu Yongfeng, Zhao Jingchuan, and Cheng Ying gathered again.

This time, it was an invitation initiated by Lin Chen.

"Three Junior Brothers, Lin Lin Shixiong has an uninvited request, I want to borrow some silver from the three Junior Brothers."

Still in the Wu Yuan courtyard owned by Zhao Jingchuan's elder, Lin Chen didn't beat around the bush and explained the reason for inviting the three.

He wanted to open five acupoints. To be safe, he needed three bottles of Acupoint-Nourishing Pills, and he didn't have enough silver on him.

Lin Chen hadn't thought about asking other students to buy Acupoint-Nourishing Pills. Those who had only bought one bottle or hadn't bought any Acupoint-Nourishing Pills that month could save money by letting them buy on his behalf.

But in the end, Lin Chen dismissed this idea. The price of Acupoint-Nourishing Pills outside is fifty taels a bottle. Students enjoy discounts, and the Wu Tang does not allow students to operate like this.

Some things, once done, cannot be hidden. If he performed mediocrely, no one would notice, but since he chose to fight for this Wu Tang competition and put himself in the spotlight, he couldn't leave any handles.

"I won't hide it from the three Junior Brothers, I want to fight for the Wu Tang competition next month."

After listening to Lin Chen's words, the three of Lu Yongfeng had surprised expressions on their faces. They weren't surprised that Lin Chen wanted to borrow money, but surprised that Lin Chen actually had thoughts about the Wu Tang competition next month.

"Lin Lin Shixiong, I can take out twenty taels here."

After a long while, Zhao Jingchuan gave the answer first, and even took out the silver note on the spot: "Lin Lin Shidi just bought Acupoint-Nourishing Pills, and now there are only these silver taels left on me."

"I can take out thirty taels here." Lu Yongfeng followed closely, also taking out the silver note from his bosom.

"Lin Lin Shixiong, Lin Lin Shidi cannot compare with Lin Lin Shixiong Zhao and Lin Lin Shixiong Lu. However, Lin Lin Shixiong has a need, and Lin Lin Shidi can also scrape together twenty taels here."

Cheng Ying took out a ten-tael silver note, and the rest were some broken silver, but adding them up was almost ten taels.

"Thank you, three Junior Brothers, I will definitely return it within three months."

Lin Chen was also somewhat moved in his heart. Seventy taels of silver was not a small amount.

"Lin Lin Shixiong, if you have thoughts about the Wu Tang competition next month, you must understand the competitors of each Wu Tang in advance. In our Cloud Hidden Wu Tang, the strongest Lin Lin Shixiong Chu has already opened six acupoints."

Zhao Jingchuan was going to be an undercover agent.

He didn't have a deep relationship with those Senior Brothers in the Wu Tang, and the Wu Tang's Wu Tang was even more exclusive. Those county students looked down on them who came from the town's Wu Tang.

In his heart, that Lin Lin Shixiong Chu was only a Lin Lin Shixiong in name, and only Lin Lin Shixiong was the Lin Lin Shixiong he truly recognized.

"Thank you, Lin Lin Shidi Zhao. The Wu Tang instructor has already given me the acupoint cultivation realm situation of the new batch of students from the major Martial Halls."

Seeing Lin Lin Shidi Lu and Lin Lin Shidi Cheng also wanting to speak as undercover agents, Lin Chen waved his hand to stop them. The Wu Tang would provide the cultivation realm information. If they told him the situation of their respective Martial Halls, if it spread, it would easily bring trouble to themselves.

Hearing Lin Chen's words, Lu Yongfeng and Cheng Ying swallowed the words that reached their mouths, and the three looked at each other, having an extra judgment in their hearts.

It seems that the Jing Shui Wu Tang instructor also felt that Lin Lin Shixiong had a chance to win a good ranking in the Wu Tang competition next month.

Only when the Wu Tang instructor felt there was a chance would they provide information on students from other Martial Halls. Like the three of them, they had never heard the situation of students from other Martial Halls from the instructor's mouth.

"If Lin Lin Shixiong can enter the top ten this time, it will be an extremely exciting piece of news for all of us students from the town's Wu Tang, and let those students in the city know that we from the town are not bad either."

Zhao Jingchuan smiled. When Lin Lin Shixiong opened his mouth to borrow money to prepare for the Wu Tang competition next month, he already had a judgment in his heart.

Lin Lin Shixiong must be confident, definitely not arrogant.

After graduating from the Wu Tang back then, he carefully recalled all of Lin Lin Shixiong's performances in the Wu Tang and found that Lin Lin Shixiong walked every step very steadily.

Borrowing the money, Lin Chen also felt relieved in his heart.

One month, continuously breaking through two acupoints, only then would there be a chance to win in the Wu Tang competition, and the reason he wanted to borrow money from Zhao Jingchuan and the others was to be safer.

Buy three bottles of Acupoint-Nourishing Pills, changing from one pill every three days to one pill every day.

Lin Chen had calculated that after the Clear Wind Palm reached Small Success, his Qi and blood circulation speed was faster, and the effect of absorbing Acupoint-Nourishing Pills was also better. Two bottles of Acupoint-Nourishing Pills, opening two acupoints was absolutely no problem.

The reason for preparing an extra bottle was to be safer.

Taking the top ten, not only has Acupoint-Opening Pills, but also a reward of one hundred taels of silver. Whether this account is worth it, not only he himself can calculate, but other students in the Wu Tang who have a chance to compete for the top ten will also calculate.

Like students like Lin Lin Shidi Lu, the reason they don't go to compete for the top ten is not because they don't know the generosity of the rewards, but because they are afraid of investing a large amount of silver, and in the end, if they don't enter the top ten, it will be a bamboo basket to draw water, which will cause problems for the subsequent martial arts path.

Ordinary students can't afford to gamble!

"Let's continue sparring."

The matter of borrowing money ended, and Lin Chen and Lu Yongfeng's four continued to spar. This was a must-have program for every gathering, and also the main purpose of the gathering.

The ending was still the same as in the past, Lin Chen almost crushed Lu Yongfeng's three.

"Lin Lin Shixiong, I now feel that you can also rank in the top three in our Wu Tang."

After Zhao Jingchuan lost, there was a look of palpitation on his face. The pressure brought by Lin Lin Shixiong's moves now was not much different from those five-acupoint Senior Brothers in the Wu Tang.

Lu Yongfeng was silent. At this moment, he made a decision. He should not take Lin Lin Shixiong as his goal anymore.

Otherwise, I'm afraid that one day his martial arts heart will collapse.

The gap between him and Lin Lin Shixiong is getting wider and wider.

The four sparred and left separately.

Lin Chen returned to the Jing Shui Wu Tang, went to the Martial Arts Pavilion, and bought three bottles of Acupoint-Nourishing Pills in one breath.

One hundred and twenty taels of silver.

When the silver note was handed out, Lin Chen's hands were trembling. It was the largest sum of money he had spent since coming to the other world.

Actually, from a safe perspective, he shouldn't seek this top ten, but develop steadily, survive the early and middle stages, accumulate silver, and then exert force in the later stages.

But when he learned from Hall Master Zeng that there was a genius criteria, he realized that the information given to him by Yu Yu Jiaoxi had omissions.

Yu Yu Jiaoxi had said that before being Ranked, silver is the most important.

The Wu Tang values the student's family background, and the silver in the family represents potential.

This is not wrong, because the Poyang Poyang Wuzhengsuo's genius criteria requirements are too high, so high that no one in the entire Poyang County could reach it.

The Poyang Poyang Wuzhengsuo, including the Wu Tang, does not look at the student's potential, it is not that they really don't care about genius disciples.

It's just that the standard for geniuses is very high.

It is somewhat similar to the education situation in the previous life. The students truly favored by those top universities are only two or three in the whole city, and when divided into a county, there might not even be one quota.

The Poyang Poyang Wuzhengsuo set the genius standard so high, which can only explain one point: the martial arts of the entire Liang Dynasty are extremely prosperous. His steady rise simply cannot enter the eyes of truly big figures.

With his background, to walk on the path of martial arts, just reaching the "genius" criteria and entering the genius list is not safe.

Because such geniuses are not just him alone.

Besides comprehension, the cultivation realm cannot fall too far behind.

The competition next month is an opportunity. Enter the top ten, get the Acupoint-Opening Pill and silver reward, and then plan for the competition rewards three months later.

One step falls, that is step by step falling. When the fate begins to exert force, it is not considered any genius.

Only by staying at the forefront from the beginning, and then soaring into the sky when the fate exerts force, can one enter the eyes of the Poyang Poyang Wuzhengsuo.

Recalling practicing martial arts in the Wu Tang, his counterattack in such a short time, from the bottom of the Wu Tang to the first, in the eyes of Yu Yu Jiaoxi and others, his performance was very amazing.

But placed in the eyes of the Poyang Poyang Wuzhengsuo and the Wu Tang, he was just an ordinary student who produced Qi in the last month of the year.

So, he must learn the lessons of the Wu Tang!

If there is any opportunity, he cannot give up.

One day, two days, the third day...

On this day, Lin Chen looked at his panel, somewhat stunned.

【Host: Lin Chen】

【Host: Lin Chen】

【Realm: Open-Acupuncture Stage (3/24): (30/100)】

【Clear Wind Palm: Small Success (1/10)】

【Water Cloud Palm: Proficient (1/10)】

【Title: Black to the End】

【Fate: 【Water Flows, Channel Forms】: First Stage of the Martial Way, persistent, step-by-step, unstoppable, no bottleneck trouble.】

Behind the realm, a progress bar appeared.

Seeing this progress bar, Lin Chen's eyes lit up. Another reason he could persist in the Wu Tang in the early stage was that he could see his progress every day.

It's just that after opening acupoints, I don't know why this progress bar disappeared.

"Disappeared and appeared again, is it related to my recent changes?"

Lin Chen rubbed his chin with his fingers. If he said his biggest change in these few days, it was that he took an Acupoint-Nourishing Pill every day.

So, the realm was not displayed after opening acupoints originally, because the daily growth was too slow?

Now that he takes Acupoint-Nourishing Pills every day, the growth speed of Qi and blood accelerates, and the progress bar is revealed again.

The appearance of the progress bar is a good thing for Lin Chen, and its importance is no less than the Acupoint-Nourishing Pill.

With the progress bar, he can perform precise analysis on his martial arts practice progress just like in the Wu Tang.

Which kind of poultry meat has the best effect, what is the specific numerical value of the Qi and blood addition of Clear Wind Palm Small Success and Water Cloud Palm Proficient, and even infer the growth range after reaching Great Success.

Two days later.

Lin Chen was shocked by his own practice progress.

【Realm: Open-Acupuncture Stage (3/24): (50/100)】

Two days, the progress bar increased by 20. According to this progress, he only needs to spend another five days to reach four acupoints.

This speed has already exceeded that Senior Sister Jiang.

"Where is the problem?"

Lin Chen pondered for a while in his heart and had two guesses.

The first guess, the difficulty of opening the first few acupoints will be lower, so he can open one acupoint in ten days, and the difficulty will increase later.

There is also another possibility, the Small Success Clear Wind Palm gave him an increase in the speed of Qi and blood circulation.

Perhaps both guesses are correct. His fast progress is the superposition of the effects of both.

Another two days passed.

【Realm: Open-Acupuncture Stage (3/24): (65/100)】

Looking at the realm progress on the panel, Lin Chen had a conclusion.

Technique Small Success and technique Proficient have a significant impact on Qi and blood circulation.

The day before yesterday, he didn't practice the Clear Wind Palm, but played the Water Cloud Palm for a day, and the progress only increased by 5 points, while after practicing the Clear Wind Palm yesterday, the progress returned to 10 points.

"Since that's the case, then focus on livering the Clear Wind Palm this month, and put down the practice of the Water Cloud Palm."

PS: Confused, I wrote about the fight in the neighboring village, and looking at the comments, everyone felt it was okay, but the follow-up reading of those two chapters dropped a bit. Is it because I didn't write it cool enough? I rewrote it. If you want to see the new version, you can refresh chapters 54 and 55 again, it won't affect subsequent reading.
