Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 14 I admit that he surprised me, but I don't think
The largest courtyard in Wutang.

Lin Chen, Lu Yongfeng and others stood here waiting for the instructors to arrive.

Lin Chen is the only one at the scene whose strength is less than 500 kilograms.

Even compared to the weakest Yan Dexing, there is a weight difference of more than 100 pounds between the two.

In the past, Yan Dexing and the others would not even look at a student with such a gap in ability, but at this moment, the five of them kept their eyes on Lin Chen.

"Junior Brother Lin, how did you do it?"

Zhao Jingchuan has not recovered from the shock yet. In just a few days, his strength increased by 50 kilograms. Are you trying to defy the will of heaven?
"I learned it through boxing." Lin Chen answered modestly.

"What do you eat every day?" Lu Yongfeng asked in a deep voice.

"Beef and nourishing soup."

"That's it?"

"Well, that's it."

After two light "that's it", Lu Yongfeng and the other four fell silent.

While Lu Yongfeng and the other four were silent, outside the courtyard gate, Yu Yongnian and his two instructors were also talking.

"Brother Yu, tell us the truth, you really didn't help Lin Chen?"

"No."

Yu Yongnian smiled. He knew that the two would definitely not believe it, but this was the truth.

"That's really strange. How did Lin Chen do it with just beef and nourishing soup from the cafeteria?"

Instructor Liu was holding a booklet in his hand, which recorded the expenses of every student in the cafeteria. Lin Chen's expenses were also clearly listed on it.

As instructors, in addition to the salaries from the Military Administration, the three of them also received a cut of the cafeteria expenses of the students they taught.

Yu Yongnian didn't care about these commissions. He was a lonely man and had no ambition in martial arts. The salary from the military government was enough for him to spend.

This is also the reason why he reminded students not to pursue quick success when they entered the martial arts hall.

"What a pity! If Lin Chen had improved his food earlier, he could have made an effort to cultivate his energy within a year, but it's a little too late now."

Instructor Chen had a look of regret on his face. Even though Lin Chen's strength was increasing rapidly now, there was still another hurdle after reaching 500 kilograms. And after 550 kilograms, every ten kilograms was a hurdle. And there were not many days left before the one-year term expired.

"Not necessarily. Maybe Lin Chen can give us a surprise." Yu Yongnian said with a smile.

"It's difficult. The time is too short. If Lin Chen was given another three months, I would have no doubt that he could do it. Unfortunately, there are less than two months left." Instructor Chen shook his head. He still didn't quite believe that Lin Chen could do it.

"Whether Lin Chen can do it or not is a matter for the future. Right now, the three of us have to give Lu Yongfeng and the others special training."

Special training!

It is held in every class of the martial arts hall and is aimed at students who have the opportunity to develop their energy within a year.

The martial arts hall indeed only teaches the Nuan Yang Fist, but if the students are just one step away from developing their vital energy, they, as instructors, will also lend a hand.

Yu Yongnian and the other two walked into the yard, and saw the silent Lu Yongfeng and the others with some surprise in their eyes.

"From now on, the three of us will give you special training to help you break through the blockages in your blood and qi. Lu Yongfeng, come here."

Instructor Liu spoke first, Lu Yongfeng walked up to him, and Lin Chen and others looked at him curiously.

"Try a set of Warm Sun Fist."

"Yes."

Lu Yongfeng threw a punch with a whistling sound. Instructor Liu stared at him closely. After Lu Yongfeng finished the punch, he suddenly grabbed Lu Yongfeng's right hand with his right hand and pressed a finger under Lu Yongfeng's armpit.

In just three breaths, Lu Yongfeng's entire right arm turned purple-red.

"Your blood circulation is blocked here. From now on, you should continue to practice the ninth move of the Warm Sun Fist."

"Thank you for your instruction."

Lu Yongfeng had a look of joy on his face, Zhao Jingchuan and the other three also became excited, but there was some confusion in Lin Chen's eyes. Why didn't the instructors point it out earlier, but waited until now?
It can't be to create tension.

Yu Yongnian glanced at Lin Chen and saw the confusion in his eyes. He knew that his disciple lacked some knowledge in martial arts, so he said, "Only when the Qi and blood reach a certain level, and are just one step away from cultivating the essence, can we, as instructors, detect where the Qi and blood are blocked."

After hearing the teacher's explanation, Lin Chen suddenly understood.

If the meridians of the human body are compared to pipes, each pipe has a thin membrane that blocks it. If you want to cultivate essence, you have to break through these membranes. However, because the qi and blood are not strong enough or for some other reasons, when they break through these barriers, they do not completely break through the membranes. Although they are broken, there are still remnants, which causes the qi and blood flow rate to not reach the fastest, and the essence cannot be condensed.

"From today on, you will also practice boxing in this courtyard. Meals will be delivered to you from the cafeteria. I will put the three taels of silver awarded by Wu Zheng directly into the cafeteria meals for you."

"Thank you for your instruction." Lin Chen looked grateful.

Next, the three instructors pointed out the areas where Zhao Jingchuan and the other three needed to practice individually. Lu Yongfeng and the other four did not delay and quickly got involved.

A move, a punch, a kick...

They repeated it over and over again, and until the instructor called for a stop, none of the five people stopped.

roll!
Lin Chen felt the volume, and also felt the determination of these five people to practice martial arts.

He wants to change his own destiny and the destiny of his family.

The same goes for Lu Yongfeng and the other four. They have different family backgrounds and different pursuits, but the same thing is that they all know the importance of learning martial arts.

Lin Chen also joined in. He wanted to catch up with Lu Yongfeng and the others by the end of the month, so he had to race against time.

No one was lazy, they just took the initiative to practice more.

As long as there is enough beef and nourishing soup every day, there is no possibility of overdrawing the body.

……

……

Eight days later!
Lin Chen spoke again: "Teacher, I want to try the 500-jin stone pier!"

Lu Yongfeng and his companions who were practicing boxing diligently at the side suddenly stopped their movements at the same time.

Did you hear it correctly?
Lin Chen said he wanted to lift a 500-jin stone block, not 470 or 480 kilograms?

"it is good!"

Yu Yongnian's pupils shrank, he turned and walked out of the yard, and a moment later he came back carrying a 500-jin stone pillar in one hand.

Lin Chen walked to the stone pier, and at this moment Lu Yongfeng and the other four stopped completely. They wanted to see if Lin Chen could really lift the 500-jin stone pier.

Instructor Liu was not there, so out of curiosity, Instructor Chen stood in front of Lin Chen and stared at him closely.

[2513/3000]

Lin Chen took a last look at the Qi and Blood panel, bent down and grabbed the handle of the stone pier. Although it was a bit difficult, he finally lifted the stone pier up.

Yu Yongnian was all smiles, and Teacher Chen's eyes were shining.

At this moment, Lu Yongfeng and the other four people had twitching mouth corners. They looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

"It's okay, he only weighs 500 pounds, and we both weigh 590 pounds. He can't possibly surpass us."

Yan Dexing comforted several people.

"I admit that Lin Chen surprised me, but there is no way he can catch up with us. I am confident that I can cultivate my energy before the end of this month." Lu Yongfeng pursed his lips, with arrogance in his words.

The same goes for Zhao Jingchuan and the other two. Although there is no hatred among them, no one wants to be outdone.

Originally, there were five of them competing with each other, but now they have to be on guard against Lin Chen catching up.

"Today, there is Lin Chen, a disciple of Kaohe Town Martial Hall. Last month, his strength increased by 400 kilograms. It took him 15 days to increase his strength by 100 kilograms. The person who verified it is Yu Yongnian."

Yu Yongnian had a serious expression on his face, but after he finished speaking, he smiled again: "Lin Chen, if you break through 100 kilograms of strength in a month, according to the announcement of the Military Affairs Department, you will be rewarded with 10 taels, which will be given to you by the Martial Hall tomorrow."

Hearing Yu Yongnian's words, Teacher Chen on the side glanced at Yu Yongnian with a proud look as if he saw through everything. Yu Yongnian also said that he did not give Lin Chen special treatment, which meant that he had been helping Lin Chen all the time.

Under normal circumstances, to get the silver, the martial arts hall reports to the Wuzheng Office in the city, and then the Wuzheng Office issues the silver. It takes three to five days at the fastest, and ten days to half a month at the slowest.

"Thank you for your instruction."

Lin Chen didn't know the intricacies of this and thought that it was given directly to their students by the martial arts hall.

Yu Yongnian did not explain. He knew Lin Chen's family situation and he was afraid that he did not have much money on him. It would take time for Wu Zheng to pay the money, so he directly paid Lin Chen first.

Young people with ambition should not be let down!
