Martial artists can never be ultimately insulted

After saying this, Wu Jialouluo paused, then looked at Yuan Chen beside him and said:

"Moreover, Ah Chen, you don't need to worry about my integrity. When I decided to express my feelings, I had already made a decision. I will wholeheartedly nurture our child, and no one else will have the opportunity to interfere—the Wu family has always been known for its monogamy."

“Yes, I can feel it.” Hearing Wu Jialouluo’s words, Yuan Chen nodded and said, “It’s similar to how only children who grow up with enough ‘love’ can fully and confidently realize all their talents.”

Yes! That's right!

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's answer, Wu Jialouluo clapped his hands happily: "I knew A-Chen would understand!"

Even though it was their first meeting, they seemed like they'd been dating for ages... Watching Yuan Chen and Wu Jialouluo chatting and laughing, Chunli felt a strange mix of emotions and couldn't help but ask:

"So... you two have decided on your lifelong commitment? You'll be together forever from now on!"

“That’s exactly what I think!” Wu Jialouluo nodded, but then looked at Yuan Chen and said, “But A-Chen doesn’t seem to think so?”

Upon hearing this, Xing Suocai turned her gaze toward Yuan Chen.

Despite the stench emanating from the body, Yuan Chen remained unmoved, his expression calm and composed, showing no sign of being affected. After a brief silence, he said, "I am a person of pure love."

"...Pure love?"

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's words, Xing Suocaiqu R Qi was stunned, and Chun Li also involuntarily swallowed.

Yuan Chen's face was full of seriousness and determination. Although his voice was not loud, every word was filled with an unquestionable and unshakable resolve.

"No matter what kind of feelings they are, I will give them my absolute sincerity. No matter how many lines there are, my love is pure!"

"..."

After a brief silence, Chun-Li couldn't help but cover her forehead and say, "This... can I understand this as a declaration of infidelity? Uh... what do the two members of the Wu clan think?"

"If Achen can do it, I have no objection." Wu Jialouluo smiled, not taking it to heart, and calmly said:

"Because I don't understand Ah Chen right now, as long as Ah Chen can sincerely love me and our child, there is nothing I cannot accept."

“I do have some objections.” Wu Fengshui raised his hand, but then shrank back and said, “But what I say is useless… uh, I’ll ask the elders at home when I get back.”

"My God." Huo Yinqiang couldn't help but cover his forehead: "How could the martial arts world... become like this... It's not what I remember."

“…” Sagat didn’t say anything, but judging from his expression, his thoughts were pretty much the same as Hinata Takeshi’s.

Seeing that the discussion was heading in an increasingly outrageous direction, Tong Ang quickly said, "Instead of this, how about we discuss Ah Chen's trip to the Battle Realm first?"

“Yes, yes.” Wu Fengshui, who was standing to the side, also nodded quickly and said, “Let’s talk about the fighting world.”

The main concern is that if we continue talking about it, the reputation of the Wu family will continue to decline.

Yuan Chen happened to be quite interested in the Doujie (Battle Realm), so he asked, "So... what exactly is the Doujie?"

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's question, Xing Suocai cleared his throat and said:

"Regarding the Fighting Realm... you can understand it as a special area where the control over violence among martial artists is relatively relaxed."

Because martial arts training requires both physical and mental discipline, even a martial artist of mild temperament could, under such circumstances, commit a catastrophic crime due to a momentary lapse in judgment during such training.

"And because of their superior physical abilities, it would be incredibly easy for martial artists to cross borders and smuggle themselves out. This would make them mobile time bombs for any orderly country."

"Therefore, the first step in the establishment of the martial arts world was to set up special areas on each continent after discussions among countries around the world, immediately after the end of World War II, to centrally handle incidents related to martial arts."

"Although it sounds like this would lead to rampant martial arts and widespread suffering in the region, in reality, due to the international aid needed to build the fighting world, as well as numerous underground tournaments and a brutal economic model, the region will actually experience rapid prosperity."

Tong Ang said, "In the past, the fighting world in Asia was Hong Kong, and Kowloon Walled City was the place where the most intense conflicts took place. With the return of Hong Kong, the fighting world was transferred to Japan."

After saying this, Tong Ang paused, then turned his gaze to Wu Jialuo beside him and said:

"Due to some work-related reasons, I have only recently returned to Asia and am not very familiar with the situation in the Japanese fighting world. So I will leave it to the two members of the Wu clan."

"Ah."

Upon hearing Tong Ang's explanation, Wu Jialuo nodded in agreement.

Although she previously gave the impression of being a crazy and eccentric woman, when it came to serious matters, Wu Jialouluo displayed a convincing, comfortable, calm, and gentle temperament, befitting her status and etiquette as the eldest daughter of the Wu clan.

"The style of fighting itself is closely related to the cultural traditions between regions. Although Hong Kong was once the fighting world of Asia, so much time has passed and many things have changed."

"If Ah Chen wants to enter the fighting world... we need to confirm one thing first."

"What is it?" Yuan Chen asked.

Wu Jialouluo looked at Yuan Chen with some curiosity and replied:

Are you modern or classic?

Yuan Chen: "...?"

Volume 1: 46. Lodging at the Sakura House

Upon hearing Wu Jialuo's question, a flood of memories rushed through Yuan Chen's mind.

A flood of aggressive IDs and online trolling posts flashed through Yuan Chen's mind, and he couldn't help but rub his temples.

The classic and modern forms of gutters are still chasing me.

Thinking this, Yuan Chen told himself not to take it personally, and then looked at Wu Jialouluo and asked, "What do you mean by 'modern' and 'classical'?"

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's question, Wu Jialouluo explained:

"Actually, it's just a different name for ancient martial arts practitioners and modern martial arts practitioners. It's just that the Japanese fighting world has made a slightly more detailed distinction."

After saying this, Wu Jialuo fell silent for a moment, and after carefully considering his words, he continued:

“Classic martial artists, also known as ancient martial artists, focus on the cultivation of internal energy, meridians, and qi while training their physical body. Modern martial artists, on the other hand, focus on the physical body and the mind as a martial artist.”

"While both have their strengths, the classic style does indeed have a higher ceiling. However, with the development of the times, especially the arrival of the information age, this has greatly accelerated the initial accumulation process for modern martial artists..."

As he said this, Wu Jialouluo shrugged, somewhat puzzled:

"Although I personally don't feel anything, there is a serious conflict between modern and classic styles among martial artists, whether they are from the Wu clan or other martial artists in the fighting world. Some underground fighting arenas even use this gimmick to attract customers."

Yuan Chen: "..."

Falling into silence, Yuan Chen felt the sense of déjà vu growing stronger.

“However, the distinction between modern and classic isn’t so absolute.” Wu Jialuo thought for a moment, then said:

"Besides the many modern martial artists who, after reaching a certain level, switch to classical martial arts due to a lack of perception of qi, there are also many classical martial artists who actively engage in modern-style training in order to further refine their will... So, Achen, which category are you?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chen paused for a moment, then rubbed his temples and said, "Now... it should be modern, right?"

“Huh, modern?” Upon hearing this, Wu Jialouluo said with some surprise, “I thought it was a classic, because Achen’s energy flow is very powerful, and Master Yuan’s legend in the assassination world is mainly based on his unpredictable internal energy.”

"Yes, something unexpected happened." Yuan Chen briefly recounted the battle with Sagat and the changes that occurred in his body after recovery.

Although surprised, Wu Jialuo nodded in understanding.

After inquiring about some related matters, Wu Jialouluo sent Yuan Chen and Chun Li's identity information to the Wu clan's headquarters in the Japanese fighting world via satellite phone.

After waiting for a moment, Wu Jialouluo glanced at the message sent back on his phone, then took out two residence permits and handed them to Yuan Chen and Chun Li.

The cards look somewhat similar to social security cards, and they record the identity information of Yuan Chen and Chun Li respectively. However, Yuan Chen's card has a gold square printed after his name with the character '现' (Xian) written in the middle. Chun Li's card has a purple hexagon printed after her name with the character '经' (Jing) written in the middle.

Looking at these two familiar logos, Yuan Chen fell silent once again.

Chun-Li, standing to the side, said with some curiosity, "Was it done so quickly? I thought it would take a long time."

In response, Wu Jialouluo smiled and produced two more residence permits, but this time they were the opposite of those given to Yuan Chen and Chun Li. Yuan Chen's was 'Jing', and Chun Li's was 'Xian'.

"We prepared two different ones before we came. Now we just need to confirm them and then have the families activate the corresponding residence permits based on your current martial arts styles."

As he said this, Wu Jialuo added with a smile:

"Actually, before we came here, some people in the family thought it was unnecessary, because the legends left by Senior Yuan in the assassination world all involve using qi to destroy other people's internal meridians and kill them instantly. As Senior Yuan's successor, he must also be a classic martial artist or something."

"And now it seems that it was indeed the right thing to prepare more."

Hearing this, Chunli nodded in understanding. Yuan Chen, who was standing to the side, snapped out of his reverie, cleared his mind of unnecessary thoughts, and then asked, "Speaking of which, how will we live when we get there?"

"Regarding this, our initial plan was to have you two stay in the name of the Wu clan."

Wu Jialouluo said with some regret, "However, considering the need to avoid some trouble for Yingluo, we finally chose these few families after screening many homestays near the university."

As he spoke, Wu Jialouluo took out a list from his backpack, which detailed the number of members and their backgrounds in various host families.

It's not hard to guess the regret on Wu Jialuo's face; it must be because Yuan Chen couldn't directly move into the Wu clan's residence due to issues like Yingluo.

After all, if Yuan Chen could move in directly, he would have the advantage of being in a good position...

Ignoring the regret on Wu Jialouluo's face, Yuan Chen simply picked up the list and examined it with Chun Li.

Families that make it onto the list are usually cleaner and easier to hide, making them less likely to be discovered by someone with ulterior motives. Originally, Yuan Chen was going to just choose any family that was close to the school, but then information about one family caught her attention.

"This one, please," Yuan Chen said.

Seeing that Yuan Chen had made his choice, Wu Jialouluo also looked over curiously.

After a moment, Wu Jialouluo nodded thoughtfully.

Located in Beicheng District, Sakura Village is three blocks away from the comprehensive school district, making daily travel very convenient and with complete living amenities.

Family information indicates that the parents live away from home for many years, and the eldest son, Sakura Ibuki, and eldest daughter, Sakura Hibiki, currently live there.

The former, Sakura Ibuki, is the president of Sakura-sou Charcoal Grilled Meat, a businessman, philanthropist, and a severe case of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome). She is rich and often sponsors all sorts of strange events, which unexpectedly brings her considerable fame.

The latter, Hibiki Sakura, is a 17-year-old second-year student at Imperial Sakura Girls' Academy. She has a cheerful and lively personality, is innocent and naive, and currently has no boyfriend.

Wu Jialuo didn't take Sakura Ibuki seriously. However, Sakura Hibiki's message did catch Wu Jialuo's attention.

Because Wu Jialouluo also attends the Royal Sakura Girls' Academy, but she is only a third-year student and is one year older than Sakura Hibiki.

If I remember correctly... I think I heard my mom mention Hibiki Sakura's name? So, Hibiki Sakura was a student in my mom's class?

Wu Jialouluo's mother's public identity is that of a school teacher.

Thinking this, a smile appeared on Wu Jialouluo's face.

Given this relationship, it's perfectly reasonable for me to frequently visit Sakura's shop for work and then have Yuan Chen do it for me as well, right?

Thinking it over, Wu Jialouluo narrowed his eyes and smiled, saying, "Indeed, it's a very good choice!"

Volume 1: Chapter 47 - Yuan Chen's University Aspirations

With the homestay and residence permit secured, the rest became relatively minor matters.

Upon hearing that Yuan Chen was going to study in the Dou Realm, Huo Yindan, who was standing to the side, sighed with some surprise:

“Going to school... Yes, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that Brother Yuan Chen is only eighteen years old, but his achievements in martial arts far surpass those of me…”

“That’s true.” Upon hearing this, Sagat nodded and said, “You really can’t compare to Yuan Chen.”

"Huh? Does it have to be said like that?!" Hearing Sagat's words, Dan Hibiki also looked indignant: "I should have some talent, right?! Didn't you say yesterday that I learn pretty fast?!"

Although Dan Hibiki and Sagat almost had a blood feud involving the murder of his father and the loss of his eye.

However, Dan Hibiki is currently learning modern Muay Thai from Sagat.

At her father's urging, Dan Hibiki initially harbored some reservations, but after discovering that Sagat genuinely taught her useful things and that he didn't seem to be the bad guy from that night, she began to try to understand Sagat properly.

"I'm just stating the facts." Sagat simply shook his head calmly at Huobiki Dan's resentment, picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and said:

"And it's not just you. At least until now, I haven't seen anyone who can surpass Brother Yuan Chen in talent. Don't forget, even if you include the time Brother Yuan Chen spent repairing his foundation and building up his base, he has only cultivated for three years."

"...Wait, what...are you talking about?"

Wu Fengshui, who hadn't paid much attention to Sagat and Hibiki Dan's conversation, froze after overhearing their exchange. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Three years? Did I hear that right?!"

"..." Upon hearing this, Sagat exchanged a glance with Dan Hibiki, and then Sagat said, "Believe it or not, it's the truth."

Wu Fengshui subconsciously disbelieved it and looked around, but then he found that the people around him were calm and showed no surprise whatsoever, which made Wu Fengshui have an unbelievable guess.

Even so, Wu Fengshui found it difficult to convince himself to believe such a thing. After hesitating for a long time, Wu Fengshui finally couldn't help but look at Wu Jialouluo beside him, thinking that Wu Jialouluo would be as doubtful or even disbelieving as he was.

However, to Wu Fengshui's surprise, Wu Jialouluo simply nodded calmly, drank his tea, and then watched Yuan Chen eat with a smile, replenishing the protein he had consumed.

Seemingly noticing Wu Fengshui's confusion, Wu Jialouluo shrugged and said, "If it's Achen, I think nothing is impossible."

"Liking something is a good thing, but superstition is another matter..." Although he sighed helplessly, he couldn't help but believe it to some extent after listening to the surrounding rumors.

After all, given Yuan Chen's status in the assassination world, there was no need for him to deceive juniors like them on such matters.

"Speaking of which..."

After glancing at Yuan Chen's electronic file, Wu Jialouluo, who was standing next to him, asked with some curiosity, "What did A-Chen study?"

Upon hearing this, the woman who had been resting after dinner suddenly became restless.
