"This Health Care Boxing isn’t bad either, although it doesn’t carry the same impressive aura as the one you displayed in the Genius Contest. But I think if it were put into a senior’s dance routine, this set of moves would definitely be the most eye-catching."

In the training room, Shou Junming’s voice was very soft. But in the room, apart from a very few still focusing on the great circulation of qi and blood around their bodies, the rest were, without exception, Martial Artists! In the quiet space, his words seemed to ring right next to one’s ear.

"Shou Junming, come and practice."

Xie Feichen moved smoothly and naturally, like a deer at ease or a bird stretching its wings. He practiced on his own, yet all movements and sounds in the training room remained within his sight and hearing. He had been in the Dark Force stage for quite some time and was on the verge of glimpsing the threshold of the Transformative Energy stage. Transformative Energy... it connects the whole body, regulating the internal organs. Just a bit more. He might realize that bit tomorrow, or perhaps not even by next year. Therefore, in his mind, if there were news of the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm opening, he would definitely make a trip in search of an opportunity. To seek a breakthrough. Before that time comes, while he still has time, he intends to teach all the Martial Arts compiled by Xia Country at the present stage.

"Oh."

Shou Junming reluctantly approached, took a deep breath, adjusted his stance, and precisely performed Health Care Boxing. Each move perfectly mirrored that of a diligent student.

Jokes aside, he wouldn’t fail to listen attentively during class. The more one practices Martial Arts, the more one realizes how difficult it is to cross the thresholds of the Martial Arts Realm. Guidance from someone in a higher Realm can explain Martial Arts far better than one could achieve by studying in isolation for months. Moreover, this is only the initial stage of Martial Arts promotion in Xia Country. Seizing every chance for improvement is how one keeps up with the others. It’s just that the more I practice this set, the less energetic it feels. I really hope I won’t end up just dancing in public squares. Thinking about Jiang Shu dominating in the Genius Contest arena in the future, while he is in the square, dressed in cartoon clothing, doing the Macarena.

Shou Junming felt somewhat desperate as his thoughts wandered. The gap between people. It’s even bigger than the gap between a person and Patrick Star. Who is Patrick Star? He didn’t know, but it was Jiang Shu who mentioned him. Perhaps he’s some kind of cute Mutant Beast. Just like the cartoon characters on his clothes!

「...」

An hour passed quickly. Xie Feichen ended the class. The thirty-six styles of the innate Guiding Skill and Health Care Boxing, he taught them over and over again, tirelessly. Some had made great progress, while others, realizing their deficiencies, exchanged insights after class.

Shou Junming greeted Jiang Shu and immediately dashed out. After nearly half an hour of Health Care Boxing, his qi and blood were significantly depleted. It was the perfect time to head to the cafeteria for a feast! No classmates had beaten him to it yet!

In the classroom, the low voices of fellow students chatting were extremely soft, and even the sparring was contained within a small area.

Xie Feichen walked over to Jiang Shu, his gaze filled with astonishment. As a Martial Arts teacher at the academy, he naturally knew Jiang Shu had become a Dark Force Martial Artist. But it didn’t seem that much time had passed since then. So how come now, upon seeing him, Jiang Shu seemed to stand in the classroom with his bones and the aura of his body fused into one? His skin was firm, his frame relaxed. With each inhalation and exhalation, his pores would open and close accordingly, as if he was constantly refining his body. He hadn’t attained such ability three months after stepping into Dark Force! Indeed, even Shang Jibei, who had first entered Dark Force and ventured into the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, might not have achieved such a significant increase upon his return! Indeed, for Xia Country Martial Arts, talent is paramount! The more gifted one is, the more astounding their progress!

Classifying Jiang Shu as exceptionally talented, Xie Feichen extended an invitation. In his eyes, in Martial Arts, the knowledgeable one should be the teacher. Although he was currently the Martial Arts teacher of the class, if one day a student surpassed him, he could also ask the student for guidance. Jiang Shu hadn’t reached such a Realm yet. But he already had the strength to communicate with him on equal terms. Perhaps, in the future, they could enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm together.

The two walked by a small grove. Outside an ancient-style pavilion, Xie Feichen suddenly struck. His attack, devoid of the earlier gentleness of Health Care Boxing, was vicious and ruthless, aimed straight at Jiang Shu’s Heavenly Spirit Cover!

"Health Care Boxing can only be used in the outside world. If you truly want to fight in the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, this Health Care Boxing is useless, isn’t it? Hence, Xia Country has also handed down several styles of boxing and kicking skills, taught to students when they step into the Dark Force level."

"I’ll demonstrate it first; let’s see how much you can learn!"

Stomping fiercely, Dark Force erupted from his pores. Xie Feichen’s gaze sharpened as he struck down with immense power!

"This is the Stele Cracking Hand!"

Comparable to entry-level Martial Arts!

As Xie Feichen’s palm descended, Jiang Shu decided internally, I won’t take the hit head-on. I’ll retreat first using Snake Step and carefully observe the following changes.

The air crackled, and dust flew everywhere!

Just in terms of might, this palm technique was no weaker than the Hungry Tiger’s Desperate Claw. Unfortunately, it was just a single move. It relied on a sudden, overwhelming strike; if dodged, its power would wane and then dissipate.

As he fought, Xie Feichen explained, "I saw you exchanged school credits for a composite metal battle saber. As for saber techniques, you might have to wait until next year. The Martial Arts collected by Xia Country are primarily folk styles. After the great changes in the world, the might of past Martial Arts is often not enough. As Martial Artists of the same Realm improve their physical capabilities, their Martial Arts must also evolve.

"Therefore, to better suit the bodies of contemporary Martial Artists, all Martial Arts techniques are uniformly processed by computer calculations, aiming for each execution to possess three, or even ten times, its former power.

"As for cold weapons, their evolution is relatively slow. If you want to enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, it’s better to wait.

"Of course, Shang Jibei is different. His Martial Arts are family inherited. After he returns from the Secret Realm this time, you could exchange some pointers with him."

His words flowed ceaselessly, as did his attacks.

Palm.

Fist.

Leg.

Foot.

His tone was casual, yet each move carried lethal intent. Jiang Shu also stopped dodging and countered with movement after movement of the Tiger Bone Mad Demon Fist. Their colliding limbs made bones hum.

"If you’re really eager to enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, consider buying a pair of boxing gloves. In combat, it’s always better than being barehanded. The first time I entered a Secret Realm, I used these gloves to take down a Mutant Beast.

"However, in the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, Mutant Beasts aren’t the most dangerous things. The weather is. The weather patterns in each Heaven and Earth Secret Realm vary.

"There are Extreme Cold Lands with temperatures of minus forty or fifty degrees. There are also extremely hot places, surrounded by volcanoes.

"And there are places submerged by seawater, vast deserts without boundaries. Each Heaven and Earth Secret Realm is actually a small world. Therefore, Xia Country needs us Martial Artists to enter.

"Compared to normal people, we Martial Artists are more capable of surviving and exploring in extreme weather!"

Xie Feichen earnestly shared his experiences from entering Heaven and Earth Secret Realms.

Suddenly, a ringtone came from the cell phone in Jiang Shu’s pocket. Jiang Shu spun and quickly retreated several paces, avoiding Xie Feichen’s blow.

Jiang Shu took out his phone, saw the three words noted for the number, and directly answered.

Shang Jibei’s voice came through, clear, swift, and forceful.

"Jiang Shu, I have returned. I’m on my way to Jiangnan Academy. Let’s gather."
