Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 199: The one who left his name is vulnerable (Subscription required)
In an iron urn.

Lin Chen's face was ferocious for a moment, then his teeth chattered and his whole body trembled.

The two streams of dragon blood in the body seemed to feel the threat and condensed into one, constantly colliding with the medicinal liquid energy in the body.

Lin Chen's body was like a battlefield. Under the impact of these two energies, all his meridians were damaged and repaired. The acupoints all over his body were constantly trembling, and even his bones were crackling.

hold onto!
At this moment, Lin Chen's consciousness was not blurred.

This is different from the last time he absorbed the real blood of a dragon. The last time he absorbed the real blood of a dragon, the pain made his consciousness become blurred. This is the body's self-protection function. When the consciousness is blurred, he will ignore the pain.

But at this moment, the two energies of cold and hot made him extremely clear-headed.

Seeing that he had clenched his teeth so tightly that even his lips were bitten, blood was constantly flowing out of his lips, and his eyes were wide open, with a look of worry in Jia Nanzhu's eyes.

"Senior Zhao, if it doesn't work, just give up."

Two drops of dragon blood, for a warrior who has not yet practiced the Dirty Arts, this energy is too huge.

If he is not careful, Lin Chen’s meridians may be completely destroyed.

Zhao Cangsheng was a little unsure at this moment. Although his old friend had told him before his death that based on the conclusion he had drawn from traveling to several countries, a young man who followed this method of circulating qi and blood could absorb at most three drops of real blood.

But in the end it is just theory and has never been truly put into practice.

In the end, should we give up?

"Teacher, I... can hold on."

Just when Zhao Cangsheng was in trouble, Lin Chen spoke. His voice was very soft, but both Zhao Cangsheng and Jia Nanzhu could hear the firmness in Lin Chen's tone.

Hold on a little longer!
A moment will be enough!
My energy and blood are still growing!

At this moment, Lin Chen focused all his attention on the panel in front of him, staring at the constantly rising Qi and Blood value.

Five million nine hundred thousand, six million, six million one hundred thousand...

Every bit of suffering you endure now will turn into increased energy and blood.

It is both painful and rewarding.

In the end, the only things in Lin Chen's mind were the jumping numbers, and all his attention was immersed in them.

One breath, two breaths...

A quarter of an hour……

Half an hour...

Jia Nanzhu and Zhao Cangsheng looked at the fact that there was no more red and white transformation on Lin Chen's skin, and felt Lin Chen's long breathing, and they finally felt relieved.

The two looked at each other and saw satisfaction in each other's eyes.

It worked!
Lin Chen subdued these two drops of dragon blood. The next thing to do was to slowly refine these two drops of dragon blood and transform them into his own qi and blood.

"Senior Zhao, let me take over next."

Jia Nanzhu took the initiative to take over the task of taking care of Lin Chen, not only because he was Lin Chen's teacher, but also because he noticed Zhao Cangsheng's fatigue at the moment.

During this half hour, he and Senior Zhao were extremely focused. Once they noticed something was wrong, they would immediately seal Lin Chen's acupoints and force the dragon's true blood out of Lin Chen's body.

Senior Zhao is old, and his energy and blood have declined. Such high-intensity mental concentration is no easier than fighting with an entry-level warrior.

"it is good."

Zhao Cangsheng did not refuse, he was indeed a little tired.

The decline of Qi and blood is inevitable for any warrior.

Sitting on a rattan chair in the yard, Zhao Cangsheng looked at Lin Chen in the iron urn, feeling emotional. Although Lin Chen was a child from a poor family, the cultivation resources he had consumed since he went to the special training ground were beyond the reach of ordinary children from martial arts families.

It's thanks to this kid's hard work that others would be able to hold on even if they had such an opportunity.

An hour later, the volume of the liquid in the iron jar had dropped by more than half, and except for some black residue at the bottom of the jar, the liquid became clear. Jia Nanzhu also breathed a sigh of relief.

The pain has passed, and what follows is all about gain.

……

……

Lin Chen, who remained awake, could feel that his body's qi and blood were constantly absorbing and refining the two drops of dragon blood that fell into his dantian. Every time the qi and blood circulated to his dantian, it would devour the two drops of dragon blood.

The Qi and blood in Lin Chen's body rolled towards the two drops of true blood like a surging wave. When the Qi and blood receded, the two drops of true blood became noticeably smaller. On the contrary, the next surge of Qi and blood became thicker.

Once, twice...

Lin Chen is also familiar with the process of refining the dragon's true blood.

The process of the dragon's true blood entering the body and destroying the meridians is also constantly expanding the meridians' toughness and the upper limit of the amount of qi and blood they can withstand.

This is also the reason why his upper limit of Qi and blood continued to increase.

This step is the most difficult one, but as long as you get through it, the next step is to absorb and refine these two drops of dragon blood and transform it into an increase in your own qi and blood.

In the iron urn, the twenty-four acupoints on Lin Chen's body were shining with light. Twenty of them were as bright as fluorescent lights, while one was slightly dimmer, and another was like a firefly, with the light and darkness constantly changing.

……

boom!
A loud bang was heard, causing Jia Nanzhu and Zhao Cangsheng, who were resting on the side, to instantly look towards the iron urn.

The iron jar exploded!

The medicine splashed everywhere!

Lin Chen's feet landed directly on the ground, and the terrifying energy and blood in his body actually formed a blood mist.

And just now, it was this blood mist that burst out from Lin Chen's body and exploded the iron jar.

"Good boy, the blood mist actually cracked the iron jar. This blood is probably not much different from that of the demon race."

There was a gleam in Zhao Cangsheng's old eyes. Lin Chen's blood and qi increased too much in his body, causing the qi and blood to flow out and form a blood mist. This situation is not uncommon in the martial arts circle.

There are many warriors who have taken certain kinds of elixirs or medicinal herbs, which caused their internal qi and blood to surge far beyond the body's normal amount. The body cannot bear so much qi and blood, and this excess qi and blood will burst out from the pores all over the body, forming a ball of blood mist.

However, the blood mist that was ejected instinctively by the body was usually not very powerful, at most it was like a sudden rain. This was the first time he had seen someone like Lin Chen who could blow up an iron jar.

"Lin Chen's Qi and blood are so strong that it is rare indeed."

Jia Nanzhu also echoed the comment, but after all, they were his disciples, and he couldn't compare them with the demon clan.

"With a Qi and Blood limit of 7 million, 6 million Qi and Blood, and over 5.7 million True Blood, how can it not be strong?"

Lin Chen, who had shattered the iron jar, naturally heard the words of the two elders. Looking at the blood value on his panel, he was also shocked.

[Host: Lin Chen]

[Realm: Perfect Enlightenment Realm (23/24)]

[Qi and blood: 6000000/7000000]

[True Blood: 5750000]

……

The upper limit of Qi and health increased by nearly two million.

It is comparable to the total Qi and blood value of the dozen or so points he opened up before.

"Teacher, I want to go to the Martial Arts Mountain now."

Lin Chen was already impatient, but Jia Nanzhu smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, wait two more days!"

"Wait two more days?"

"Wait for news from Lord Kong."

……

……

Suddenly, a voice came out in the Daliang court.

Some officials directly pointed out that the decision of the Ministry of Military Affairs was wrong and Lin Chen was not worthy of the title of model martial arts student in Daliang.

This news shocked the entire Daliang officialdom.

This is the third time since Daliang was founded that an official has questioned the decision of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and the last time was a hundred years ago.

The news spread from the imperial hall and soon reached all the major martial arts families.

The capital of the country.

Shen Ze and a group of young men gathered in the garden.

"These people are meddling too much. The affairs of the Ministry of Military Affairs have always been independent, and even the court cannot interfere." Ye Feng looked indignant. In his opinion, Lin Chen fully deserves the title of a model martial arts student in Daliang.

"I heard that the official said that Senior Pei was not selected as a model student of Daliang martial arts, and that he thought Lin Chen was not qualified. Martial arts should be based on strength, not family background."

Yue Lingxu spoke up at the side. His father was also an official in the court and he had heard about what was going on in the court.

"Lin Chen's achievements in Martial Arts Mountain will obviously surpass Senior Pei. He hasn't surpassed him now only because his realm is not high enough. When Lin Chen opens his twenty-four spiritual realms, he will definitely be able to leave his name on Martial Arts Mountain. How can you say he is not qualified?"

Shen Ze was puzzled. Lin Chen was able to leave his name in the twenty points of enlightenment. He had experienced Lin Chen's strength. He couldn't even take a palm strike from him. However, Senior Pei's photo on Wudao Mountain didn't give him such pressure. "The twenty-third and twenty-fourth points of enlightenment on Wudao Mountain have been replaced by new people." Another young man spoke.

"Change people? Don't tell me, besides Lin Chen, where did another terrifying genius emerge from our Daliang and defeat Senior Pei on the Martial Arts Mountain?"

Ye Feng's face was full of disbelief. Senior Pei was known as the greatest genius in Daliang in the past three hundred years, and now, more than ten years later, another Lin Chen appeared. This was enough to shock him. If another genius appeared at the same time, it would be difficult for him to accept it.

"He didn't come out of nowhere." The young man said with contempt in his eyes: "He came back from abroad."

"You came back from abroad? You have demon blood in your body?" Shen Ze was furious. "How dare these people go to Wudao Mountain? Emperor Taizu built Wudao Mountain. If you have demon blood, you won't get any rewards at all. What do these people want to do?"

The Daliang martial arts family is also divided into two factions.

People like Shen Ze are staunch opponents of the demon clan.

"How stupid! Some people are opposing this in the court. What do you think these people want to do?"

Yue Lingxu mocked Shen Ze, but this time Shen Ze did not argue with Yue Lingxu, but his face darkened: "These people want to stop Lin Chen from being selected as the Daliang martial arts model? Lin Chen has a grudge against them?"

Several people in the garden fell silent at the same time, and Shen Ze also reacted. He realized that Lin Chen definitely had no grudge against these people. Lin Chen had never even left Jiangnan Road, so it was impossible for him to offend these people.

Therefore, these people were not going after Lin Chen, that is...

With some guesses in mind, Shen Ze's pupils suddenly shrank, and he stopped asking questions. The level of the fight involved was too high, and it was not something that young people like them could participate in.

……

……

Jiangnan said, Bu Wenbin frowned, and the deputy director Xu Lun beside him asked curiously: "Is there anything bothering you, sir?"

"What else can we do? Lord Kong wants to select Lin Chen as a model for Daliang martial arts students, but there is a lot of opposition in the court. I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to handle."

Xu Lun heard this and smiled, "I thought you were worried about something, sir. This matter is not simple. These opponents use the excuse that Lin Chen's achievements have not surpassed Pei Qingming. As long as Lin Chen continues to leave his name in Wudao Mountain, these people will naturally be speechless."

"This is what I am worried about. News came from Linhu Village that Lin Chen had already opened up 23 acupoints the day before yesterday. According to Lin Chen's previous practice of leaving his name on Wudao Mountain after every breakthrough, two days have passed this time and he still hasn't left his name on Wudao Mountain. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to leave his name on the last two acupoints."

Bu Wenbin sighed, and when Xu Lun heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Forget it. This matter is not something I should worry about. Let the director and Lord Kong worry about it. Lin Chen can become a model student of Jiangnan Dao. Our Raozhou Prefecture has already received a lot of resources. We should not be greedy anymore."

Bu Wenbin sorted out his thoughts and then asked, "Is there anything going on in Raozhou Prefecture today?"

"The military administration offices in all counties under Raozhou Prefecture are all operating normally. Our students in Raozhou Prefecture are very motivated now. According to the lists sent by the military administration offices, the number of practitioners of dirty martial arts this year is more than 30 more than last year."

"Haha, this is the motivational effect of Lin Chen, a role model for martial arts students."

Upon hearing the news, Bu Wenbin also laughed out loud: "Master Qiu's departure really gave me a bargain."

"Does your Excellency have anything else to say?"

"Master Xu, please go and take care of yourself. I have nothing important to do here."

"Then I will resign."

Xu Luncai had just left the lobby, but he didn't notice that Bu Wenbin's eyes were always on his back, with an unfathomable look in his eyes.

An hour later, somewhere in Raozhou Prefecture, a snow pigeon slowly took off and headed towards Jiangbei.

……

……

after one day!

The director of Jiangbei Military Affairs Department wrote a letter saying that Lin Chen should not become a role model for Daliang martial arts students.

This was the first official from the Ministry of Military Affairs to publicly oppose it!

A third-rank warrior who is also the director of a branch of the industry, one can imagine how important his status is.

At the same time, the governor of Hedong Dao Prefecture also wrote a letter to the court. In his words, it would be difficult to convince the public to select Lin Chen as a model for Daliang martial arts students.

Many young men in Hedong Dao were dissatisfied, and his desk was piled with many objections and advice from entry-level warriors.

The key point of these opposing remarks is that in terms of martial arts achievement, Lin Chen has not surpassed Pei Qingming. Pei Qingming has not even become a role model for Daliang martial arts students, so how can Lin Chen become a role model for Daliang martial arts students?
If it is just because Lin Chen comes from a humble background, then isn't it unfair to the children of these families?
In terms of achievements, their family elders once slew demons for Daliang, so why should they be looked down upon?

What contributions has the Lin Chen family made to Daliang?
My ancestors have been fishermen for generations. Did they catch a few more fish for Daliang?

Ministry of Martial Arts!
Kong Qifeng is playing chess with an old man at this moment.

"Brother Kong, you are sitting pretty."

“It’s not a safe seat, but it’s fun.”

Kong Qifeng made his move, and the chessboard formed a siege, instantly eating up many of his opponent's white pieces.

"Xiong Hai from the Jiangbei Military Affairs Office and Zhou Nan, the Lord of the Hedong Dao Mansion, these two are disciples of that old man, right?"

"Well, even though the old man has retired, he still cares about me, Daliang."

The thin-faced old man on the opposite side also ate up many black pieces with one move.

"Before Daliang announces the existence of the demon race, it's time to clean them up."

Kong Qifeng watched as most of his chess pieces were eaten up, and a smile appeared on his face: "This old man feels that now that the old marquis is gone, no one can control him."

"A running dog under the stick. When the old marquis entered the capital, he beat this old man with a stick in front of all the officials. It seems that he was right."

The thin old man looked at the black pieces on the chessboard and took one of them out. Kong Qifeng narrowed his eyes when he saw this.

"I have something to tell Senior Brother Kong. Just yesterday, the Li family secretly wrote a letter, and the old man sent someone to deliver a portion of python blood to the Li family."

The thin old man looked at Kong Qifeng in silence and couldn't help but said, "I know that Senior Brother is optimistic about Lin Chen, but the Li family has never made a mistake, and whether it is Li Yuan or Li Zhe, they are both geniuses of Daliang martial arts, and we can't just get rid of them for this reason."

"The Li family is also interesting. They first reported the Huo family, and then went on to report that old man... Junior brother is the left prime minister, and I, the Minister of Military Affairs, cannot interfere in the affairs of the court. Let Junior brother handle it."

"Okay, then, let's call this game a draw?"

……

……

Northern Xinjiang!

Xiao Yaojin came down from the Martial Arts Mountain and looked at his father: "My son failed to do it. The one who left his name in the twenty-four openings is not only the demon blood in his body, but also absorbed at least 30% of it."

"That's really good. In order to prevent Lin Chen from being selected as the Daliang martial arts model, they actually targeted a young boy like this."

Marquis Zhenbei's face turned pale. Xiao Yaojin lowered his head, blaming himself for being useless. If he was strong enough, how could he allow these people to be so arrogant.

"Jin'er, you don't need to blame yourself. Before I, a Daliang warrior, entered the rank, I was no match for those with demon blood. After you enter the rank, you will inherit your grandfather's spiritual weapon and kill these people like grass."

Xiao Pingyao saw the gloom in his son's eyes and said something to comfort him.

"Dad, do you think Lin Chen still has a chance?" Xiao Yaojin raised his head and looked at his father.

"It's hard!"

Just as Xiao Ping finished his words, hurried footsteps were heard outside the tent.

"My Lord, my young Lord... good news, Jiangnan Dao Lin Chen has left his name again at the 23rd place in the Awakening Realm."

The one who reported the news was a personal soldier of the Xiao family. Xiao Yaojin was stunned for a moment, then rushed out of the tent: "Uncle Qi, how did you know it was Lin Chen who left his name?"

There is a stone wall with the nominations for Wudao Mountain in the military camp, but the names of those who left their names will not be displayed.

"The three characters Jiangnan Road are written on the stone wall. Young Marquis, who else can it be except that person?"

The personal soldiers were all smiling, and Xiao Yaojin also smiled. Indeed, there was no one else from Jiangnan Road except Lin Chen.

"Dad, if Lin Chen can leave his name on the twenty-fourth place of Wudao Mountain, I plan to go to Canglan Martial Arts Academy."

The Demon-Slaying Martial Arts Academy was founded by the first generation of Marquis Zhenbei. As a young marquis, Xiao Yaojin naturally entered the Demon-Slaying Martial Arts Academy.

Listening to his son's words at this moment, Xiao Yaoping did not object, but responded with just one word: "Yes!"

……

……

Linhu Village.

Lin Chen came down from the Martial Arts Mountain. Facing his teacher and Senior Zhao who were staring at him, he smiled brightly: "My disciple has left his name on the list successfully!"

"it is good!"

There was a hint of excitement on Jia Nanzhu's old face, and the same was true for Zhao Cangsheng beside him.

"Is this battle difficult?"

"The man who left his name behind could not withstand a single blow from my disciple. He was not even able to withstand a single blow."

When Lin Chen said this, Zhao Cangsheng and Jia Nanzhu's pupils shrank suddenly. Zhao Cangsheng then asked: "If so, why did it take so long?"

Ever since Lin Chen took out the martial arts seal and entered the Martial Arts Mountain, the two have been waiting. More than a hundred breaths of time have passed since Lin Chen entered the Martial Arts Mountain.

Lin Chen's eyes flashed with a gleam of light: "My disciple has left his name on Wudao Mountain six times, breaking Senior Pei's record. Wudao Mountain has an unexpected reward, which delayed us for some time."

PS: I didn’t expect there would be an update at this point. I updated late yesterday, so I stayed up late today to write a chapter. With this attitude, I ask for monthly votes and subscriptions.
