Chapter 37

~8 min read 1,559 words

Because of the Yin family, the movement of the Chen Martial Arts Hall opening was very large.

The Yin family is not only a scholarly family but also a business leader, so many families and merchants with close relations to the Yin family arrived one after another. As Master Chen's disciple, Yin Qi naturally followed to greet guests at the door.

As for Yin Chengtao and Yin Xuan, they were helping to entertain guests inside.

Having experienced the Caohe Gang incident, they had already understood the value of a Transformation Energy Grandmaster like Master Chen, so they were naturally willing to help more, and it would be best to bind the other party to their chariot.

A scholar wearing a long gown asked suspiciously: "Brother Yin, a mere martial artist opening a martial arts hall, you do this...?"

Although he didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was obvious.

Others nodded one after another.

They came to support today, all for the sake of Yin Chengtao's face.

On weekdays, they were used to being high and mighty; a mere martial artist, in their eyes, was only worthy of being a bodyguard.

It was already good to be able to speak to them with a pleasant countenance, let alone treat them with courtesy?

Thinking too much.

Yin Chengtao smiled slightly and said frankly: "Everyone, the world has changed now. Take me for example, I was forced by the Caohe Gang with no other choice but to lead the team to deliver goods by land, and I encountered the interception of robbers on the way back and forth.

If it weren't for Master Chen, perhaps my bones would be cold.

You probably can't imagine that Master Chen, with just a wooden stick, single-handedly defeated the attack of more than two hundred robbers.

At that time, I was thinking that the great generals of the past were nothing more than this."

Speaking of this, he looked at the shocked eyes of the crowd and continued: "He is the master of my son Yin Qi, and my savior, Yin Chengtao. No matter how much I do, it is what I should do. What's more, with him here, the Yin family has an extra guarantee in the future. After all, no one knows when there will be great chaos again."

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom ended only thirty years ago, and they had all experienced it, so the past events could be described as vivid in their minds.

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts upon hearing this, thinking about Yin Chengtao's words.

The world was chaotic, and the importance of martial arts seemed to be reflected, at least not to be slaughtered.

A wealthy middle-aged man asked: "Brother Yin, is this Master Chen really that powerful, how is your Yin Qi learning?"

Yin Chengtao affirmed: "Of course he is powerful. If placed in the army, he would definitely be a peerless fierce general who is an enemy of ten thousand. As for my Yin Qi, he has only been practicing martial arts with him for about a month, and now he has changed completely, as you have seen before. It is said that now more than a dozen people cannot get close to him."

Everyone was shocked.

They were all close to the Yin family, so naturally, they knew what Yin Qi was like in the beginning.

Thinking of this, someone said: "Listening to Brother Yin, I think we should also try our best to recruit some powerful experts just in case, and we can also send those useless things at home to practice martial arts."

"This is possible!"

"Let's see first, let's see how capable this Master Chen is."

Everyone discussed one after another.

Just then, they heard a commotion outside the martial arts hall.

Someone raised their voice: "The hall-exploring ones are here. Let's go, let's go and see how capable this Master Chen is."

Exploring the hall is to explore the bottom of the martial arts hall.

After all, peers are enemies.

If your students are numerous, mine will definitely be fewer.

Compared to kicking the hall, exploring the hall is slightly gentler and will not tear the face.

……

In front of the martial arts hall.

Several loud shouts rang out in the crowd one after another:

"Liu Martial Arts Hall, congratulates Chen Martial Arts Hall on its opening!"

"Wu Martial Arts Hall, congratulates Chen Martial Arts Hall on its opening!"

"Sun Martial Arts Hall, congratulates Chen Martial Arts Hall on its opening!"

……

The crowd was in an uproar, and many onlookers were squeezed away.

As if by appointment, the eight martial arts halls in Shaoxing Prefecture arrived together, three or forty people in a mighty group, led by eight burly middle-aged men, all in their thirties or forties, in their prime of martial arts.

Master Chen had expected this, so he walked forward, cupped his fists and smiled: "Thank you eight hall masters for coming to congratulate, the old man is very grateful."

Yin Qi's eyes were bright, and he was eager to try in his heart.

He followed Master Chen and carefully examined these eight hall masters, finding that only one had slightly bulging temples, which was a sign of a Dark Jin expert, while the others were unremarkable.

Of course, those who could open a hall were at least Bright Jin martial artists; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to teach disciples at all.

Although experts emerged in endlessly in the late Qing Dynasty, they were distributed all over the country, and Dark Jin was a great expert, not a radish that could be seen everywhere.

After all, Shaoxing was just a prefecture city.

Yin Qi was a little disappointed and had no interest.

He thought these eight hall masters could be very powerful, but it turned out there was only one Dark Jin, and the others were all Bright Jin.

And today the eight hall masters came to explore the hall, the protagonist was Master Chen, he had no reason or opportunity to take action, and he didn't want this kind of show-like performance.

The eight hall masters looked at Master Chen, and contempt flashed in their eyes.

It is said that fists fear the young and strong; if physical strength is insufficient, no matter how high the cultivation is, it is useless, and it is completely possible to beat an old master to death with chaotic fists.

One of the reckless men laughed contemptuously: "Old man, you are not young anymore, why don't you go home and hold your grandson, why come to open a martial arts hall, can your fists still move? Hahaha!"

Master Chen was not angry, just smiled faintly: "Whether it can move or not, you will know if you try. Today the old man opens the hall, if you have any moves, just draw the path directly, the old man will take it."

"Good!"

A man with a somewhat feminine appearance smiled: "Since Master Chen is so straightforward, then we won't hide it. According to the rules of our Jianghu, if you want to open a martial arts hall in the city, you must get our recognition.

We will send three people, best of three.

If you win, you can open this martial arts hall, and we will all be peers in the future.

If you lose, please follow the rules.

Master Chen, what do you think?"

Master Chen nodded: "The old man has no problem, who will go first?"

"I'll come!"

The previous reckless man cupped his fists and said loudly: "Sun Martial Arts Hall Sun Liansheng, please give me advice."

The other seven hall masters waved their hands one after another, took their people and retreated to the side, leaving a field of about ten meters in diameter, so as not to accidentally hurt the onlookers when they fought.

Yin Qi also retreated to the door and saw Yin Chengtao and the others had come out.

Yin Xuan walked to Yin Qi's side, leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Second Brother, what do you think of this Hall Master Sun?"

Although he felt Master Chen was very powerful, the other hall masters were probably not weak.

Yin Qi said faintly: "A dog and a chicken."

Yin Xuan was surprised and puzzled in his heart.

Just then, the fight in the field had already started.

Sun Liansheng was tall and burly, a pair of arms comparable to a teenager's thighs, and his palms were especially wide and full of calluses, probably practicing palm techniques like Iron Sand Palm.

"Get down for me!"

Sun Liansheng roared, his voice like thunder.

Many of the onlookers were scared.

He took a big step forward, his right palm like a cattail fan, covering Master Chen's face.

The momentum was fierce, and the palm wind whistled.

"Hiss hiss!"

The onlookers were shocked, this Sun Liansheng is so powerful.

If this slap goes down, even a blue brick would be shattered, can this Master Chen's old arms and legs take it?

Just when everyone was worried about Master Chen, they saw Master Chen retreat half a step, and Sun Liansheng's palm fell in front of his face, hitting empty air, and then without waiting for Sun Liansheng to react, he directly bumped into Sun Liansheng's arms.
