Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 93: The Ultimate Cultivation Path of the Awakening Realm
Martial Arts Office.

Lin Chen came to the Military Administration Office again, but this time he did not wait for notification as he did with Instructor Yu before.

The doorman obviously recognized him and took him into the Wuzheng Office enthusiastically and went straight to the main hall.

In the main hall, Su Lingchuan, with his hands behind his back, was admiring a mountain ink painting hanging on the ceiling.

"Lin Chen, a disciple of Jingshui Martial Arts School, greets Master Su."

Su Lingchuan turned around and looked at Lin Chen with a smile: "Young genius, my Poyang County is indeed a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery."

Lin Chen lowered his head shyly and did not dare to respond.

Anyway, according to the advice of Master Zeng, it is enough for me to do two things. I should just listen to what Lord Su says, but never express my opinion easily.

"I have reviewed your information, from the time you entered the martial arts hall to the martial arts gym, and I discovered that you were the first beneficiary of the incentive and work-study program that I and Inspector Shu had set up."

Lin Chen said sincerely: "Without Master Su's encouragement, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to get to where I am today."

Su Lingchuan waved his hand: "Don't say such things in front of me. You have relied on yourself to get to where you are today. If you relied on me or the martial arts school, you wouldn't be a disciple of Jingshui Martial Arts School now."

Obviously, Su Lingchuan also had a thorough understanding of the dispute between Lin Chen and Qingfeng Martial Arts School.

One night was enough for him to understand everything.

"I called you here this time for three things. The first is the reward for the first place. When you leave the Military Administration Office, someone will give it to you. The second thing is related to the genius regulations of the Military Administration Office. Has Zeng Qingyao told you about it?"

It turns out that the full name of Master Zeng is Zeng Qingyao. Lin Chen silently memorized it in his heart and quickly replied: "The master mentioned to his disciples that if a technique is perfected within half a year, it will meet the genius regulations of the Military Administration Department."

Su Lingchuan nodded: "Zeng Qingyao knows the genius regulations, but not the specifics. The Military Administration Department will provide special training for genius students who meet the requirements. All the resources needed for training will be provided by the Military Administration Department, but the period is only three months, starting in July every year."

Short-term special training?

Lin Chen thought of a suitable word.

"For more details, you will be informed when someone from the Military Affairs Department comes to take you there. I will not go into details here."

When saying this, Su Lingchuan still felt guilty for a moment. He had no idea how the Military Administration Department trained talented students. This was the secret of the Military Administration Department.

The reason why he knows all this is because he is now the director of the Military Affairs Institute, and his position allows him to be aware of this vague information.

"The third thing is, I have received a report from my subordinates. Your instructor in the martial arts hall wrote you two letters. Someone picked them up and handed them over to the military administration office. The two letters are on the table. Take them."

When Lin Chen entered the lobby, he noticed two letters placed on the table on one side.

Picking up the letter on the table, Lin Chen glanced at it and saw that the seal had been removed. He believed that Lord Su would not peek at the contents of the letter. The most likely possibility was that the thief opened it and read it, otherwise he would not have chosen to hand the letter over to the government office.

"Your teaching is also interesting. I actually wrote you two letters. Can you guess why?"

"The instructor really has good intentions for his disciples. He was afraid that the younger generation would become arrogant if they did well in the competition, so he wrote a letter to persuade them. He was also afraid that the younger generation would lose their enthusiasm for martial arts if they did poorly in the competition, so he wrote a letter to encourage them. If nothing unexpected happened, the disciples would only see one of these two letters."

Lin Chen did not hide anything and told Teacher Yu the intention behind writing the two letters.

"Hahaha!"

Su Lingchuan suddenly laughed out loud: "What a great pair of instructor and student, they are a model of instructors in Poyang County."

Listening to Lord Su laughing, Lin Chen felt as if he was witnessing an actor's acting skills, but Lord Su's acting skills didn't seem to be very good, with a strong sense of exaggeration.

"Lin Chen!"

Su Lingchuan's smile suddenly disappeared, his face became stern, and his expression was solemn and dignified, like a majestic statue. He said in a deep voice, "Let me ask you, have you and Yu Yongnian ever made a master-disciple agreement in private?"

The pressure from the ninth-rank warrior was released, and his eyes seemed to be able to see through Lin Chen's heart. Lin Chen looked calm and said, "My lord, no."

"

Su Lingchuan's eyes were sharp as a torch, and he continued to ask, "Do you have any conflicts of interest or family ties with Yu Yongnian?"

"My Lord, I have never met the instructor before we were in the martial arts hall. There is no relationship between the instructor and my Lin family. As for conflicts of interest, my family is poor. If it weren't for the instructor's pity and the work-study policy issued by the Lord, I wouldn't even be able to afford beef."

Hearing Lin Chen's words, Su Lingchuan also revealed a smile. He had read Lin Chen's information in the martial arts hall. He had announced the work-study policy later, and Yu Yongnian had arranged for Lin Chen to work in the martial arts hall first. But who would care about these trivial matters?
Yes, he was even more satisfied with Lin Chen.

"Yu Yongnian, as your instructor, has been very caring and thoughtful towards you, without asking for anything in return; you have also been very respectful and honest to your instructor."

"You two are truly the role models of martial arts in Poyang County. You should be admired and emulated by everyone. I will definitely report this matter to the Military Affairs Department so that the entire Rao Prefecture will know that Poyang County has such virtuous teachers and good students." After saying this, Su Lingchuan looked at Lin Chen and said, "May I ask you a favor?"

"My lord, please tell me."

Lin Chen became alert and remembered Master Zeng's instructions, so he didn't dare to agree easily.

"I would like to select excerpts from what your instructor Yu said in the letter and put them in a notice for the instructors and students of various martial arts schools to read. It may also be issued by the Military Affairs Department."

Make headlines in local official media?
After just a brief thought, Lin Chen completely understood why Lord Su wanted to put on such a show for him.

Instructor Yu and I are role models for instructors and students, and Lord Su is in charge of martial arts affairs in Poyang County, which is also Lord Su's political achievement.

"I dare not make any decisions without your permission regarding the letter you wrote to me. I hope you will understand."

When Su Lingchuan heard Lin Chen's answer, there was more approval in his eyes. As long as Lin Chen was not a stupid person, he should know that this was definitely a good thing for him. Since he was a role model, how could he not be rewarded?
By then, the Ministry of Military Affairs and even the Rao Mansion will reward him, and Lin Chen is able to consider Yu Yongnian and keep his original intention in the face of this benefit. This is a true respect for the teacher.

If he had previously intended to publicize the affairs of Lin Chen and Yu Yongnian for personal gain, then now in his heart, Lin Chen and Yu Yongnian deserved this honor.

The friendship between master and disciple is truly precious.

However, he believed that Yu Yongnian would not refuse. Even if Yu Yongnian himself did not care about fame and fortune, he would agree for the sake of his disciple. He would just wait for Lin Chen to write a letter to inform him of this, which would delay him for a few days.

"Okay, then I'll make a decision after you ask your teacher about this matter."

Su Lingchuan's aura subsided, and he smiled and said, "We have finished talking about business matters, now let's talk about some personal matters. Do you have any plans for the future of martial arts?"

"I was just thinking of asking Master Su for advice. Given my current situation, how should I proceed in my martial arts studies?"

When talking about his own affairs, Lin Chen thought of what Master Zeng had said, and without hesitation, he directly stated the problems he was facing.

In fact, he has a panel and his [fate], so he has a rough plan for his future martial arts path.

But if he had Lord Su's experience to guide him, he could also use it as a reference to change his subsequent martial arts training plans.

Su Lingchuan's mind was as clear as a mirror. Zeng Qingyao had never entered the rank, and Jingshui Martial Arts School had never produced anyone who had mastered a martial art to perfection in such a short time. He was unsure about Lin Chen's subsequent progress on the martial arts path, so he specifically asked Lin Chen to come to him for advice.

Not to mention that he admires Lin Chen very much now. Even if he didn't have this appreciation, as the director of the martial arts institute, he has the responsibility to teach the county students martial arts.

"Qingfeng Palm is a martial art for the upper body. It can open 24 acupoints. The next eight acupoints you are going to open are located in the lower body. Qingfeng Palm can no longer bring you much help. The progress will be slowed down. You must be mentally prepared for this."

Lin Chen nodded. He had already learned about this from Master Kong.

"I have read the report from Jingshui Martial Arts School. I found that you have also mastered the Water Cloud Palm to a small extent. Moreover, the time it takes to practice the Water Cloud Palm is much shorter than that of the Qingfeng Palm. Is this true?"

"true."

Su Lingchuan's eyes were shining: "If that's the case, I have a way to speed up your next eight orifices. It depends on whether you dare to try it."

"Please give me some advice, sir." Lin Chen clasped his fists and saluted without any hesitation.

"Go to Zhenyue Martial Arts School and practice the Iron Bone Skill of Zhenyue Martial Arts School. If you have a high level of comprehension not only in Qingfeng Palm and Shuiyun Palm, but also in all the skills, practicing the Iron Bone Skill can shorten the time it takes you to go from seven orifices to sixteen orifices."

"Practicing Iron Bone Skill?"

Lin Chen really didn't expect that Lord Su would point him in this direction.

Zhenyue Martial Arts School will let...

This is not a problem. Lord Su is the director of the Military Administration Institute. Since Lord Su said so, Zhenyue Martial Arts School will definitely not have any objection.

"You should know how difficult it is to practice the Iron Bone Skill. If you don't have enough understanding of the Iron Bone Skill, not only will you waste money, but you will also waste time. It is better to use the Qingfeng Palm steadily to continue to break through."

Su Lingchuan looked at Lin Chen in a deep voice: "Therefore, it is up to you to decide whether to take this path or not."

Lin Chen fell into deep thought, and after a while he raised his eyes and asked, "May I ask, sir, if my disciple practices Iron Bone Skill and has good comprehension, will the benefits be more than just speeding up the progress?"

clever!

Su Lingchuan exaggerated Lin Chen in his heart. If it weren't for the fact that there was no problem with Lin Chen's growth trajectory from birth to now and it could withstand investigation, he would have doubted whether Lin Chen was really the son of a fisherman.

"There is an extreme cultivation path in the Awakening Realm. Precisely because it is an extreme, very few people can successfully cultivate it. Therefore, ordinary students don't know about it. As long as you know one thing, if you can do it, you will have one foot in the entry level."
