After a big battle in the martial arts hall, Shang Xia brushed off his clothes and walked away very gracefully.
However, the waves caused by this war have just begun to ferment.
Shang Xia could probably expect that the emergence of magical powers might bring him some trouble, so he hurried out of the academy as soon as the competition ended.
But not long after he left the martial arts hall, he saw two figures standing there in the distance. They had obviously been waiting for him for a long time.
"Chief Shang is in such a hurry, where are you going?"
Zhang Haogu had an expression of "I caught you" with a teasing tone in his mouth.
Shang Xia knew he couldn't hide, so he had no choice but to step forward and said, "Disciple has seen Zhang Jiaoxi and this teacher!"
Zhang Haogu pointed to the person next to him and said, "This is Jia Yuntian, the deacon of the Sutra Pavilion."
Shang Xia suddenly realized that the deacon of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion had the same status as a teacher in the academy, and he quickly said: "Disciple has seen Deacon Jia!"
Jia Yuntian waved his hand and said: "There is no need for these false etiquettes. Jia comes straight to the point and wants to ask you how you developed your magical power of 'Hunyuan Thunder Hand'. Can it be included in the Academy's Scripture Collection Pavilion?" "
Shang Xia looked slightly surprised and looked at Zhang Haogu beside him with some confusion.
Zhang Haogu sighed slightly and explained to him: "The concept of the 'Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand' was first proposed about three hundred years ago. Its origin is derived from the ancient Qi practitioners thousands of years ago. A magical power called 'Thunder in the Palm'."
This was the first time that Shang Xia heard someone talk about the origin of the martial arts magical power "Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand", but he did not expect that this magical power even involves Qi practitioners. For a moment, he seemed a little surprised, and even a little confused. .
Could it be that my understanding was wrong, that I did not come to a world of high martial arts, but an era of revival of cultivation?
But before his thoughts could continue to diverge, he was interrupted by Jia Yuntian's cold snort: "The ancient Qi practitioners are just a group of locusts!"
Zhang Haogu said in a gentle tone: "But it also laid the foundation for the rise of martial arts like us to a certain extent."
Jia Yuntian corrected: "Martial arts is an improvement and transcendence in all aspects for ancient qi practitioners!"
Zhang Haogu nodded, obviously not wanting to quarrel with his friend on this issue. Instead, he looked at Shang Xia and continued the topic: "But after the martial arts magic power was conceived five hundred years ago, it was not until It was only over a hundred years ago that someone was lucky enough to practice it for the first time!”
Shang Xia sighed: "Is it so difficult to practice this magical power?"
Jia Yuntian glanced at him and said: "What Lao Zhang means is that the magical power of 'Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand' is difficult to practice. Of course, every magical power is difficult to practice. It requires inheritance, understanding, will, and chance. One thing is missing." No!"
"Oh," Shang Xia nodded, and then he said with a proud look on his face, "I understand what the teacher means. It means that all magical powers are difficult to practice, and the 'Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand' is especially difficult to practice!"
Even though Zhang Haogu had a gentle temper, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times when he heard such boastful words. He simply pretended that he hadn't heard anyone speak just now and said to himself: "In the past hundred years, I have cultivated this magical power. Only five or seven people have been recorded, but the number of people who have been seriously injured or died because of practicing this magical power is dozens of times that of those who have achieved it, and this does not include those who quit midway. "
I don't know whether it was subconsciously or intentionally. After listening to Zhang Jiaoxi's words, Shang Xia's expression became more and more uncontrollable with pride. He fanned the folding fan in his hand more and more frequently, but pretended to regret in his mouth. : "It actually caused so many casualties. It is indeed difficult to practice, but it also shows that the power of this magical power must be considerable, otherwise there would not be so many people following it."
Jia Yuntian groaned and looked away, as if he could no longer bear Shang Xia's proud face.
Zhang Haogu coughed lightly, covering up his almost loss of composure, and continued to sigh: "It has been less than twenty years since Tongyou Academy was established. There are records of five students practicing 'Hunyuan Thunder Hand', and the first four are The final result is one death, one serious injury, one minor injury, and one giving up. You are the fifth and the only one who succeeded."
Shang Xia laughed awkwardly and said, "It's a fluke. All the disciples are lucky!"
Jia Yuntian really couldn't stand the arrogant look of the boy in front of him, and said directly: "If you can provide the specific cultivation process of 'Hunyuan Thunder Hand' to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and it is of reference and operability, then Jia We will jointly report your merits to the college with Teacher Zhang, and the college will also reward you according to the specific circumstances!"
Shang Xia looked embarrassed and said: "It is of course our duty to contribute to the academy. However, this junior's cultivation of the 'Hunyuan Thunder Hand' was extremely lucky. I think the two gentlemen have also learned that the place where the disciples are retreating has been destroyed." The matter of the thunder splitting..."
Jia Yuntian looked disappointed when he heard this.
Zhang Haogu's eyes flashed, and he sighed: "The difficulty of cultivating magical powers continues to increase as the cultivation level decreases, and the lower the cultivation level, the scarcer the types of magical powers available for selection. It is conceivable that I know, if you can really provide the effective training method of "Hunyuan Thunder Hands", how much this will help to improve the strength of the entire academy. I think that after knowing this, Chief Shang Shan will definitely be very relieved... …”
"Stop, stop, you don't need to say more!"
Shang Xia hit his head with the handle of the fan and said with a wry smile: "All disciples understand the truth. Let's go back and think about it for a while to see if we can figure out the cultivation of this magical power. Whether it is successful or not, it will take three days." I will definitely give the college a reply later.”
Zhang Haogu laughed "haha", his tone suddenly changed, and said: "Don't worry, kid, the benefits will definitely come to you when the time comes!"
Shang Xia hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Looking at Shang Xia's leaving figure, Jia Yuntian frowned and said, "This kid is so cunning, he is very different from Nai Zu!"
Zhang Haogu said somewhat disapprovingly: "As long as he can really come up with an effective cultivation method, what if I give him more benefits?"
When Jia Yuntian heard this, he glanced at his old friend in surprise, as if he had gotten to know him again, and said, "Aren't you afraid that someone will say behind your back that you are trying to flatter Shang Bo?"
Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "What a joke, how do I, Zhang Haogu, behave, why do I need to listen to others' criticism?"
After saying that, Zhang Haogu changed his tone and said: "However, I'm afraid this kid still doesn't have an intuitive understanding of the value of the magical powers he has developed in the Yuan Qi realm. I'm afraid it won't be easy for him to get out of this academy. !”
"Huh? You mean..."
…………
At this time, Shang Xia looked at the person blocking his way again, his expression changed, and he seemed to have realized something.
Yuan Zilu looked at the young man in front of him. He had already put aside his cold expression when he was the judge in the martial arts hall. He waved to Shang Xia and said, "Boy, you are very good. I am very optimistic about you!"
Shang Xia's expression was a little distorted by the sudden change in the painting style of the other party, and he said: "Teacher, are you waiting for students here?"
Yuan Zilu smiled heartily, waved his hand and said, "Old Yuan, I am the deacon of the hospital's health department. You don't need to call me teacher, just call me Lao Yuan."
Shang Xia curled his lips secretly and laughed dryly: "Deacon Yuan is joking."
Yuan Zilu didn't care about Shang Xia's name and said directly: "Boy, how about coming to our hospital's health department?"
After saying that, without waiting for Shang Xia's reply, Yuan Zilu patted his chest and abdomen and said: "If you don't say anything else, as long as you follow our old Yuan, I will never treat you badly, and with our old Yuan and the hospital guard guarding you, as long as you If you don’t want to, no one will dare to force you to do something you don’t want to do.”
Shang Xia secretly thought that even now few people dare to force him to do things he doesn't want to do, but he said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Deacon Yuan, for your kindness. But as far as the disciples know, the recruitment of people in the Court Guard Department is limited to A member of the Sacrifice Society, right? This disciple is still living outside the community..."
Yuan Zilu laughed "haha" and said: "Boy, have you forgotten what time it is now? Your first year in the outer house has been completed. Once the holiday is over, if there are no accidents, no, there are no accidents, you will definitely enter inside. If you give up, you will naturally be qualified to enter the Department of Health!"
Shang Xia excused himself: "This disciple still needs to go home and discuss this matter with his elders..."
Yuan Zilu glared and said, "What are we still discussing? My mother-in-law and mother are not happy at all. I can just make up my own mind about my own affairs..."
Before Yuan Zilu finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice: "Yuan Hou, you dare to rob my merchant, who gave you the courage?"
Shang Xia could clearly see the anger steaming on Yuan Zilu's face at this time. He suddenly turned around and cursed: "Who the hell...Hey, I said this voice sounds pleasant to the ear. Senior Sister Shang is actually free to come to the academy today. How can I not do it?" Let me tell you in advance so that Yuan can be prepared, right?"
The expression and tone instantly changed from furious to flattering, even though Shang Xia had experience from his hometown world, he was also stunned at this moment.
The person who came was a young beauty whose features were somewhat similar to Shang Xia's. When she came closer, she gave Shang Xia a reassuring expression with a smile. When she turned to look at Yuan Zilu, her eyebrows were raised and she said: "Yuan Houhou, I don't care what hospital deacon you are now. Today I want to take my nephew home. Do you have the ability to stop me?"
"How dare you, how dare you! I'm just asking for the child's opinion. The Court Guard Department is not a den of robbers, how can it still rob people?" Yuan Zilu quickly apologized with a smile.
The beauty walked past Yuan Zilu without even glancing at him. Instead, she looked at Shang Xia with a friendly expression and said, "Xia'er, you did a good job."
Shang Xia followed the original owner's emotions and said with a hint of admiration: "Gu, why are you here?"
The beauty is Shang Xi, Shang Xia's aunt.
Shang Xia grew up. Although he was served by a servant and wet nurse at home, his aunt Shang Xi could be regarded as half of his mother, and he was the closest to his aunt in the family.
Hearing this, Shang Xi said angrily: "You have made such a big noise in the college. If my aunt doesn't come, you don't know when it will take you to leave the college."
Shang Xia was slightly startled, but he saw Yuan Zilu next to him with a sneer on his face and said, "How can it be possible? How can it be possible!"
Shang Xi ignored Yuan Zilu next to him and led Shang Xia towards the outside of the college. Deacon Yuan's voice came from far behind him: "You two, go slowly..."
This way out of the academy, no one will stop me along the way.
Shang Xia was curious and couldn't help but ask: "Gu, what about Yuan Zilu..."
"My younger brother who worked under me at the academy back then!" Shang Xi obviously knew what he wanted to ask.
"Domineering!" Shang Xia gave his aunt a thumbs up in his heart.
At this time, Shang Xi hesitated slightly, and then said: "But you must be prepared to be questioned. The family also has some ideas about your Yuan Qi realm magical power."
Before Shang Xia could speak, Shang Xi continued: "But don't worry, even if your grandfather is not here, no one in the family dares to embarrass you now. As long as your cultivation method is feasible, aunt can win enough for you from the family." The benefits come.”
