Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 33 The person standing before you is the founder of the work-study program (more)

At the dock, Lin Chen waved to his eldest brother, watched him leave, and then walked towards the city with his bag on his back.

The county town today is much more prosperous than the last time Lin Chen came, and the streets are crowded with people.

Under the eaves of the shops, there were still lanterns from yesterday's Lantern Festival hanging, attracting many children to stop and watch.

Lin Chen didn't delay too much and went straight to Qingfeng Martial Arts School.

Qingfeng Martial Arts School, Martial Arts Pavilion.

"Is there anything wrong, Junior Brother?"

A young man in the Martial Arts Pavilion saw Lin Chen coming in and greeted him with a smile.

When the Qi and blood are restrained internally, one has already reached the state of enlightenment.

He knew all the students who had achieved enlightenment in the previous class of the martial arts school. The unfamiliar student in front of him must be a new student in this class. New students would enter the enlightenment stage as soon as they entered.

It goes without saying that he was from a wealthy family and had obtained the enlightenment elixir. Although I have also gained enlightenment, it was only three months after I entered the martial arts school. There is no comparison.

With limited funds, he could only persevere in his efforts to achieve a breakthrough in martial arts.

Fortunately, this year the Military Affairs Office issued a so-called work-study policy, whereby students of the martial arts school can help with some work in the martial arts school and earn some money. Although it is not much, it is better than nothing.

Thanks to the gentleman who proposed the "work-study" program at Wuzheng Institute. He is simply the benefactor of these ordinary students.

"I'm here to return the Qingfeng Palm secret manual."

"Please show me your identity card, Junior Brother." Ma Hao was very humble. He didn't act superior at all just because he had opened four orifices. He knew very well that if the Junior Brother in front of him wanted to surpass him, half a year would be enough.

These students are the future celebrities of the martial arts school. Even if you can't make friends with them, you can't offend them.

Seeing Lin Chen take out his identity card, Ma Hao was a little surprised: "Junior Brother Lin, in the martial arts hall, everyone uses the martial arts hall's student identity card, not the household registration card issued by the government."

"I haven't applied for a student ID card yet."

After hearing Lin Chen's words, although Ma Hao was confused, he still took the ID card and the secret book: "Junior brother, wait a moment."

Ma Hao entered the backyard of the Martial Arts Pavilion and respectfully asked Zhao Ce, who was sipping tea, "Master Zhao, is there a new junior brother named Lin Chen in our class?"

"Lin Chen?"

Zhao Ce put down the cup and nodded, "Indeed, there is such a new student. What's the matter?"

"Junior Brother Lin is here to return the Qingfeng Palm secret manual."

"Yeah." Zhao Ce responded lightly. Seeing that the instructor had no other words, Ma Hao turned around and prepared to leave.

"Ask him how many orifices he has opened now. If he has opened two orifices, let him in. If he has not opened even two orifices, let him leave on his own."

After hearing what Instructor Zhao said, Ma Hao was confused but still agreed, then left the backyard and returned to the front pavilion.

"Junior Brother Lin, I have confirmed that the secret book is fine. Please sign here." Ma Hao took out an account book from under the counter and handed it to Lin Chen. When Lin Chen signed, he pretended to be calm and asked, "Junior Brother Lin, how much have you learned now?"

"Shame on you, I still have one clue."

Lin Chen did not lie about this, the martial arts school must have a way to verify it.

"It's okay. With Junior Brother Lin's strength, it won't take long for him to open the second acupoint after entering the martial arts hall."

Ma Hao did not look down on Lin Chen just because he was still ignorant. As I said before, he and Lin Chen were not of the same class.

"Junior Brother Lin, do you have anything else to do?"

"That's all. Thank you, Brother."

Lin Chen originally wanted to ask about the Qingfeng Palm, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.

There must be an instructor in charge of the Martial Arts Pavilion. The senior brother who just went in obviously informed the instructor that if the instructor doesn't want to see him, there is no need to go and get rejected.

The most important thing is that he has a booklet given by Instructor Yu, which contains all of Instructor Yu's experience in practicing Qingfeng Palm, so it doesn't matter if he has no one to guide him.

……

……

Jingshui Martial Arts School, Lin Chen came for the second time.

This time, the martial arts hall seemed much more lively than the deserted one before the New Year. Just at the door, he could see many female disciples, all of them looking heroic. When he was looking at these female disciples, they were also looking at him.

Compared with the female disciples, the male disciple Lin Chen is more eye-catching.

Under the gazes of these female disciples, Lin Chen strode into the gate of the martial arts hall.

"Hey, there are male disciples in our martial arts school? How strange."

"I went to the wrong martial arts hall. It's impossible. The plaque on the door of Jingshui Martial Arts Hall has four characters so big, I shouldn't have made a mistake."

"Could it be that she is a girl with a masculine appearance?"

"The Adam's apple is so distinct, it's obviously a boy."

"Hello, male disciple. I don't know how long it has been since I last saw a man. If this is really a junior disciple from this class, I really want to touch him."

"Where do you want to touch, Junior Sister Yu?"

"I want to touch everything, even the penis."...

……

After entering the state of enlightenment, Lin Chen's ears and eyes became much sharper. He almost stumbled when listening to the vicious words of these female sisters. If women become hooligans, men will have no chance.

In this world, women can also practice martial arts, and the customs are not so strict.

When he first followed his elder brother to work in the village, he often heard the women washing clothes by the river gossiping. The dirty talk they talked about was truly eye-opening.

Walking towards the dormitory, when I was about to pass the corner of the corridor,
In the corridor, Lin Chen heard a conversation at the corner and couldn't help but stop.

"Junior sister, congratulations on becoming a martial arts school disciple. Today, I will treat you to a meal to celebrate."

"How can I let Senior Sister Chen treat me to a meal? I should be the one to treat you."

……

……

This conversation sounds so familiar.

Warm-hearted Senior Sister Chen.

Lin Chen felt emotional in his heart, thinking that he had no money, otherwise he would really like to treat Senior Sister Chen to a meal.

Now, he could only avoid it to avoid embarrassment for both of them.

When he arrived at the dormitory, Lin Chen was very satisfied with the dormitory arranged by the martial arts school.

The single dormitory also comes with a small courtyard, which is the treatment given by the martial arts school to the students who take the awakening pills.

Tuition is free, food is free, and accommodation is free.

The bedding had already been laid out on the bed in the dormitory. Lin Chen touched it and found it was a brand new quilt.

This was the first time he had come into contact with a quilt in the past six months since he traveled through time. The quilts at home were all linen stuffed with some straw wool, and in the original owner's memory, they were not warm at all in winter.

With his current energy and blood, it doesn't matter whether it's warm or not, but the comfort of the quilt is incomparable to that of straw and linen.

There were two sets of martial arts training clothes on the table in the dormitory, but Lin Chen was not in a hurry to change into them. He put the clothes in the bag into the closet, and then took out all the silver and money he had on him.

A twenty-tael silver note given by Instructor Yu and a thirty-tael silver note collected by the villagers were also exchanged for silver notes. In addition, there was the thirteen-tael silver reward he received in the martial arts hall, but now only seven taels were left.

Fifty-seven taels of silver was his entire fortune.

Instructor Yu had written in the booklet that there were twenty-four acupoints in the Awakening Stage. For the first ten acupoints, one had to spend thirty taels of silver every month in the martial arts hall to buy Zhiqiao Pills, and one could open one acupoint in one and a half months.

If you want to speed it up, you have to spend more money.

A bottle of Ziqiao Dan costs thirty taels of silver, with a total of ten pills. Take one pill every three days.

Rich students can buy two or even three bottles.

The martial arts school treats students preferentially. The first bottle of Zhiqiao Dan is only thirty taels, but the second bottle returns to the original price of forty taels, and the third bottle is sold at fifty taels.

Those children of the powerful and wealthy did not care about the silver. In addition to taking three bottles of Ziqiao Dan every month, they would also take precious poultry meat.

The money he has is not enough to cover other people's expenses for a month.

With the experience of Qi training, Lin Chen also has some understanding of the fate of "everything will come naturally".

There are a total of twenty-four acupoints in the state of opening the orifices. When it comes to the first sixteen acupoints, my fate cannot play a role, which means that when the first eight acupoints are opened, I have no advantage compared to other students.

In the early stage, you have to endure.

If I can't raise the money for the Enlightenment Pills every month, the progress will be delayed.

Martial arts is difficult!
It’s no wonder that these martial arts schools look down on me. Where can I find so much money with my financial situation?

After a light sigh, Lin Chen summoned the panel.

[Name: Lin Chen]

[Occupation: Warrior]

[Realm: Awakening Realm (1/24)]

[Kung Fu: Qingfeng Palm (Proficiency: 1/100)]

[Fate: [Successful outcome]: In the realm of martial arts, one must go against the current, make progress step by step, and be unstoppable, overcoming all obstacles.]

【Martial Arts Title: Black to the End】

After working so hard, he finally mastered the Qingfeng Palm this morning.

In the booklet that Instructor Yu gave him, he mentioned that for most students, even those from powerful families, it would take a month to learn an entry-level martial arts technique, and three months to become proficient in interpreting it. From then on, to reach the stage of mastery, it depends on one's comprehension. If one could achieve proficiency within half a year, he would be considered to have a high level of comprehension.

In other words, it takes seven or eight months or even longer for a student to go from being exposed to the exercises to mastering them, and if they can achieve mastery within a year, they have met the standard.

In the early stage, I had no advantage in fate, and my understanding of martial arts was my only advantage.
