"Brother Wu."
After hearing Zhao Yan's self-introduction, Hou Qi cupped his fist at him and said, "Thanks to you tonight, otherwise I might be stuck in it too."
His words were not polite, but came from the bottom of his heart.
If Zhao Yan hadn't held back the seven members of the beheading team, even if Shura tried his best, it would be difficult for him to escape from the command center building.
Later, he broke through all the way. If Zhao Yan's rockets hadn't cleared the way, it would not have been as simple as being shot twice in the body if he wanted to escape.
"Grandmaster Hou, you don't have to be polite."
Zhao Yan smiled.
"My injuries are not serious, but are you seriously? Do you want to stop and rest for a while?"
Hou Qi asked.
After coming out of the Marine Corps Command, he clearly felt that the aura on Zhao Yan's body had become much weaker, and his speed and strength were far inferior to before. He was worried that Zhao Yan had used some secret method before, and now he could no longer hold on. .
In fact, Zhao Yan just lost the bonus of [Glory of Chinese Martial Arts], and his condition was completely fine, even better than before!
Although tonight's battle was thrilling, he also gained a lot of experience points:
[You have gone through a hard battle, and your level experience is +7600]

According to the current upgrade speed, Zhao Yan feels that he has a chance to break through the martial arts and rise to a higher level in this mission world!
"The first level of warriors has [Glory of National Martial Arts], and the second level of martial arts students has [Concentration and Guarding]. What skills will be unlocked on the next level?"
Zhao Yan is looking forward to this.
"Master Hou, I'm in very good condition. I'm fine."
Zhao Yan said to Hou Qi.
"It's a pity that even with your help, Brother Wu, I still failed to kill Hoshino Hideki. Instead, a good man died for me."
Hou Qi said with a somewhat sad expression, "I don't even know the other person's name, so I can't repay him."
Hearing this, Zhao Yan asked in detail about the details of Shura's attack:
"It sounds like the other party is very similar to Shura in the hands of the four great masters of Pearl City."
He heard a lot of rumors from Lu Gu about the four masters, including Shura, so he told these to Hou Qi.
"I see."
Hou Qi nodded, his eyes sad, "What a pity."
He has been fighting all the way and has seen too many life and death. He should have been used to the sacrifice of others, but every time someone dies along the way, he will feel that the responsibility on his shoulders is heavier.
Especially when Shura died to save him tonight, it was even more difficult for Hou Qi to let go.
Even as a current grandmaster, he would often feel powerless, but in the end he gritted his teeth and endured it.
Zhao Yan also felt that Hou Qi was a little depressed. After thinking about it, he said:
"The Xiongguan Road is really like iron, and now we are crossing it from the beginning. Grandmaster Hou, we failed to kill Hoshino Hideki this time, we will do it next time!"
Hou Qiyi was startled and turned to look at Zhao Yan:
"Xiongguan Road is really like iron, but now we are crossing it from the beginning? Crossing it from the beginning. Haha, hahahahaha!"
Swish swish——
The surrounding leaves were shaken by huge sound waves, and fallen leaves flew into the air.
Driven by the powerful force, Hou Qi's heroic laughter spread far away, shaking the mountains and forests!
Zhao Yan stood aside and could feel the everlasting pride and ambition in the other party's laughter.
When he looked at Hou Qi, he seemed to see a majestic mountain peak. The majestic momentum made people admire him!
After Hou Qi smiled, there was something deeper in his eyes, and his whole mental temperament also changed accordingly.
He reached the realm of a master in life-and-death battles. After becoming a master, he also experienced many hard battles, but he always faced opponents with fewer enemies and more realms than himself.
Tonight is the first time for me to have a confrontation with an opponent of the same level.
Although the battle between Hou Qi and Ishino Joichi failed to determine the winner in the end, he did have the upper hand, which was helpful to improve his state of mind.
However, Shura's death made him depressed and his state of mind was also affected.
However, Zhao Yan's words became the finishing touch, which opened his mind and vaguely touched the higher heaven and earth!
"Xiongguan Road is really like iron, and now we are crossing it from the beginning. Good! Brother Wu said it well, if you don't succeed once, kill again!"
Hou Qi said with a big smile.
Zhao Yan looked at Hou Qi, who was completely different from before. He didn't expect that he hadn't gained anything from him yet, but he had let him gain something first.
"Grandmaster Hou, I have some martial arts questions that I would like to ask you for advice."
Zhao Yan said.
Although they only got along for a short time, he could already feel Hou Qi's generous spirit, so he simply stated his request directly.
"Brother Wu, just ask, Hou will tell you everything he knows!"
Sure enough, Hou Qi didn't hesitate at all.
"Grandmaster Hou, my current state is only the dual arts. If I want to break through to the three arts realm, what should I do?"
Zhao Yan asked a very 'big' question as soon as he came up.
How to break through from two tactics to three tactics?
Even many top masters may not be able to explain this question clearly, but Hou Qi, as a master of alchemy, has extraordinary boxing skills, so he is the best person to resolve doubts.
"The most critical step in breaking through from the Double Jue to the Third Jue is the transportation of qi and blood. And if you want to move qi and blood, you must first understand what qi and blood are?"
Hou Qi spoke eloquently without thinking:
"As the saying goes: practice muscles, bones and skin externally, and practice one breath internally. The breath used in internal training refers to breathing. We warriors breathe in and out. The breath we exhale may not be able to destroy even a piece of tissue paper, but this breath circulates within the body. , after a complete set of transformations in the body, it can finally produce a power as powerful as breaking a monument or cracking a stone. This is the effect of Qi training!
The blood flows in the body, providing energy to all parts of the body, and is also a vital part of our body's strength. Combined with the breath of internal training, it is the Qi and blood of the warrior. Therefore, you can regard this qi and blood as the source of a warrior's power. Regardless of whether it is bright energy or dark energy, in the final analysis, it all comes from qi and blood. "
Zhao Yan nodded. He knew a lot about similar concepts beforehand, but after hearing Hou Qi's explanation, it suddenly became clear.
"Understanding what qi and blood are, you can naturally think of the key to transporting qi and blood, which is breathing!"
Hou Qi continued.
"Regulating the flow of qi and blood in the body by changing the breathing rhythm is the most preliminary method of transporting qi and blood. Independently control the flow of more qi and blood to certain parts of the body, thereby making it stronger, bit by bit. Improve your physique and strengthen yourself, these are the benefits that the transportation of Qi and blood can bring.
Those Taoist priests in ancient times meditated and chanted sutras all year round. Not only did they not cause physical problems due to long periods of sitting, but they also strengthened their bodies and prolonged their lives. They slowly improved their physique through the transportation of qi and blood.
Therefore, before a boxer in the Three Jue realm begins to weaken his energy and blood, the older he is, the deeper his cultivation will be. "
Zhao Yan suddenly realized.
No wonder the four masters of Pearl City have never fought against each other, but the martial arts industry recognizes 'Dong Wanggong' Ji Wanqing as the strongest among the four.
Because Ji Wanqing's age happened to be at the peak of his "prime years".
The so-called 'year of fighting' refers to the peak period before Qi and blood weaken. For warriors, it is the age group of forty to fifty years old.
"But if mastering the breathing method can break through to the realm of the three arts, then why are there so few top masters?"
Zhao Yan asked.
Lu Gu told him that the number of first-class masters in the entire China would not be less than two hundred, but there were only twenty or thirty top masters in the Three Jue realm.
If one could break through just by mastering the breathing technique, the number of top masters would definitely not be so small.
Hou Qi smiled:
"If it's just to transport qi and blood, mastering the breathing method is enough. But what we warriors pursue is not just to transport qi and blood, but the integration of the three powers."
Having said this, he suddenly pointed to the Li River in the distance.
The two of them were standing on a hill at this time, and through the moonlight they could vaguely see the river in the distance:
"Look at the Li River, which spans thousands of miles. When it flows slowly and calmly, it can nourish everything on both sides and countless people live on it; but when it flows rapidly and the waves are monstrous, it can also destroy everything and leave countless people alive. No one can resist!”
Zhao Yan was thoughtful and somewhat understood what Hou Qi meant.
"The same is true for the transportation of qi and blood. It nourishes the body when it is slow, and it can bring huge power when it is urgent. This power is the power of qi and blood. Practicing the breathing method can only make people slowly mobilize the qi and blood. If you want to stimulate the qi, The power of blood can even integrate the power of qi and blood with Ming Jin and Dark Jin. It also requires warriors to have meticulous control over themselves. Therefore, although the ancient Taoist priests can transport qi and blood, they are not necessarily Kung Fu masters. "
Hou Qi said.
Zhao Yan nodded: "So the key to breaking through to the realm of three tactics is control."
"The first is perception, and the second is control. First, you have to know all the details about yourself, and then you can talk about micro-control."
Hou Qi said.
Zhao Yan completely understood now.
That is to say, the key to breaking through to the realm of Three Jue is related to two attributes, Shenting and Tianshu.
For others, improving these two attributes is difficult and requires talent and time.
But for Zhao Yan, just add some points.
Now that his divine court is as high as 21 points, he feels that as far as the realm of three tactics is concerned, it should be enough anyway.
Tianshu's attribute is 16 points, even if it's different, it shouldn't be much different.
What's more, he still has 3 useless attribute points.
"So, the realm of Sanjue should be stable!"
Zhao Yan was overjoyed and thanked Hou Qi with fists in his hands.
Hou Qi waved his hand:
"Brother Wu, you don't have to be polite. Don't tell me that you saved me tonight and blew up the arsenal of the Eastern Navy. If you just say that you joined our Chinese Boxing Club, I won't have any reservations about you. I will teach whatever I can." .”
Speaking of this, he looked a little gloomy:
"Our Chinese state is vast and rich in resources, with a population of 50 million, but there are only three warriors at the master level. In a corner of the East China Sea, the population is less than one-tenth of ours, but there is a grandmaster, a top expert The number is no less than ours! Do you know why this is?"
Zhao Yan shook his head.
Hou Qi sighed:
"It's just because Donghai Kingdom had a bright new reform ten years ago. The whole country was comprehensively reformed and all the old barriers were broken down. Not only was there a qualitative leap in technology, industry, agriculture, military, etc., but also Martial arts.
They established the National Samurai Association, and more than 90% of the sects across the country have joined it. They will unreservedly share their own sect's kung fu and unique skills with others for exchanges and discussions. It was in this environment that in just ten years, many masters emerged in the Donghai national martial arts world!
On the other hand, in China, many boxing masters in various sects still adhere to the old rules and hold on to their sectarian views and are unwilling to use their own kung fu to communicate with others. Instead, due to various grievances and grievances, internal fighting is fierce. "
Zhao Yan was silent.
From his perspective, he certainly felt that these people's ideas were outdated and pedantic.
However, different times and environments have created different views. If he had been born in such an era and received old-school education since he was a child, he might not have the views he has today.
"I established the Chinese Boxing Club not only to unite everyone to fight against the East Navy, but also to break down the old barriers and encourage everyone to exchange martial arts. So since you have joined the Chinese Boxing Club, as long as I can do it, you want Learn it and take it as much as you can!”
Hou Qi looked at the Li River in the distance and said with deep eyes.
Zhao Yan looked at this grandmaster and admired him from the bottom of his heart!
"Junior, thank you so much, Grandmaster Hou!"
He cupped his fists with both hands and bowed deeply to Hou Qi.
Hou Qi turned to look at Zhao Yan and helped him up:
"It's a pity that the power of one person is limited after all. The power of the Hua Boxing Club as a family cannot change much."
Zhao Yan thought for a while and asked:
"I heard that the master Chen Tingshan, who is known as the 'best in the world', is the recommended leader of the Bagua Sect. If he is willing to go out and call for help, will there be great progress in this matter?"
The Bagua Sect is also one of the mainstream martial arts schools in this world and is very powerful. As the leader of the Bagua Sect, Chen Tingshan is also the 'best in the world'. If he is willing to stand up and call on everyone to exchange martial arts, A national association has also been established, which will definitely be very effective.
Zhao Yan thought of this, so he made this suggestion.
But I never thought that Hou Qi would sneer:
"After I left the Northland, I immediately went to the Central Plains to find Chen Tingshan, hoping that he would stand up and start an association, but he refused."
"Uh, Grandmaster Chen."
"A stubborn old man, don't mention it!"
Hou Qi waved his hand to interrupt Zhao Yan.
Stubborn old man!
If anyone in the world hears someone dare to comment on Chen Tingshan like this, they will definitely be horrified, because he is recognized as the "best in the world", a person who has truly conquered countless masters and has dominated the world of China for decades!
However, in Hou Qi's mouth, he just said "don't mention it".
Only now did Zhao Yan see the domineering power of this 'Northern Sword King'!
"Let's go. Now while we're on the road, you can show off your skills and I'll give you some pointers."
Hou Qi said.
"good!"
Zhao Yan nodded.
So the two of them continued on their way.
A ray of morning light breaks through the thick clouds in the sky and shines on the river. Dawn has arrived.
At first light, there was a huge movement on the river:
One after another, warships set out from the port of the East China Sea Marine Warfare Command, driving rapidly on the river with the loud roar of their engines, causing countless waves.
Among these warships, the smallest light destroyer is more than 100 meters long and nearly 10 meters wide. It is equipped with five 127mm 50-caliber naval guns, two twin-mounted C-type turrets, one single-mounted turret, and two Men96 type 25mm twin anti-aircraft guns!
The largest heavy cruiser is 185 meters long and has a displacement of 7950 tons!
The warship has eight 420 mm caliber main guns and twenty-one 30 mm caliber anti-aircraft guns!
The maximum effective range of the main gun exceeds 20,000 meters!
These are the steel behemoths belonging to the First Fleet of the Eastern Navy.
As long as these warships are on the Li River, the East Navy's attack range is within 20 kilometers along the coast!
And these are not the most terrifying weapons of the First Fleet. The most terrifying thing of the First Fleet is that it has an aircraft carrier:
The total length is more than 260 meters, the displacement reaches an astonishing 17,000 tons, and it carries a total of 70 fighter jets!
You know, at this time, the number of fighter jets in the entire Shenzhou Kingdom did not exceed 200.
It is precisely with such powerful force that the Eastern Navy can defeat the Chinese army and show off its power on the waters belonging to China.
"Report Captain, all pilots are in place!"
On the aircraft carrier Tianyun, Captain Oguchijiro of the East Navy's First Fleet was standing on the deck looking across the river.
After hearing the report, Oguchijiro said calmly:
"Let's take off and let the Chinese people on the other side see our heroic appearance."
"yes!"
A moment later, the fighter jet's engine started on the aircraft carrier deck and was about to take off.
After the fuss made by Zhao Yan and others last night, Hoshino Hideki judged that the Chinese Army would definitely seize this opportunity to launch an attack, so he decided to strike first.
Early this morning, he sent the First Fleet of the Eastern Navy to launch a bombardment against the 13th Army and 15th Army of the Shenzhou Army on the other side of the river!
When the Eastern Navy's fighter group took off, a red sun happened to rise from the river.
The endless glow shines on the river and on the warships of the First Fleet of the Eastern Navy, making these warships look very dazzling.
The river breeze blew by, and the military flag belonging to the Eastern Navy fluttered in the wind and made a hunting sound.
This is the glory of a powerful empire in the morning light, and it is about to show its strength!
At the same time, Zhao Yan and Hou Qi, who had been traveling all night, also stopped.
On the way that night, Zhao Yan unreservedly showed Hou Qi all the kung fu he had learned, and Hou Qi gave him pointers and suggestions on some of his problems.
At this time, the two of them were standing on a hillside, and Hou Qi watched Zhao Yan quickly perform the Bagua Wandering Dragon Movement.
Zhao Yan's speed is getting faster and faster, and the dragon's spine is swinging more and more violently, as if it is about to break out of the body!
He mobilized his strength without reservation to speed up the Youlong Shenfa.
At a certain moment, his speed reached its peak, and seven afterimages ran out at once!
歘——
Zhao Yan suddenly stopped and stopped, with white steam visible to the naked eye rising out of his head.
He looked closely and saw eight pairs of footprints on the ground, forming a circle.
[Your [Wandering Dragon] skill level has been improved to Lv2]
A new message is refreshed on the properties panel.
"good!"
Hou Qi smiled and applauded Zhao Yan, "Your understanding is the best I have ever seen."
On the way that night, Zhao Yan used the Wandering Dragon Body Technique the most, so it was also the technique that Hou Qi taught the most, which benefited Zhao Yan a lot.
Now, after a night of guidance, he successfully upgraded [Wandering Dragon] to Level 2!
"Thanks to Brother Hou for your guidance."
Zhao Yan smiled and cupped his fist at Hou Qi.
After this night of familiarity, his title to Hou Qi had changed from 'Master Hou' to 'Brother Hou'.
The help Hou Qi gave him was not only the improvement of Youlong's movement skills, but now Zhao Yan felt that there were not many obstacles to breaking through the realm of Three Jue!
"You are Welcome."
Hou Qi waved his hand and suddenly pointed into the distance, "Brother Wu, look."
Zhao Yan looked in the direction of his finger and saw the sun rising over the river. A red sun rose from the line between the water and the sky, covering everything in the world with a glow of rays.
Everything becomes brighter.
"How can we allow others to trample on these great rivers and mountains?"
Hou Qi said calmly.
Zhao Yan looked at the magnificent scenery in front of him and felt the firmness in Hou Qi's tone. He nodded:
"right!"
At this time, the light of the morning light also fell on the two of them, stretching their figures very long.
"Let's go."
Zhao Yan said softly, and then he and Hou Qi left with their backs to Chaoyang.
Compared with the powerful fleet of the Eastern Navy, their figures are not tall, and their road ahead can indeed be regarded as 'the road is as straight as iron'.
But under the same rising sun, they also have high fighting spirit and unyielding souls!
