In this chaotic world of martial arts, I'll become a god by adding skill points!

After Yang Fang left, Wang Anping tidied up his belongings, including a few changes of clothes.

There are also two chests of gold and silver treasures.

He found a stick, made it into a carrying pole, and headed towards the outer city.

As we passed through the city gate, there were two soldiers guarding it since it was still early.

Seeing him approach with large and small bags, one of them even tried to question him.

But when the soldier met his eyes, his face immediately lit up with a smile.

Having served as an investigator for so long, he knows best who you shouldn't mess with.

Although it's impossible to judge Wang Anping's strength, that look in his eyes is definitely not something an ordinary person could possess.

Their squad leader didn't have that kind of presence, and the captain? He was almost there too.

next morning

Wang Anping began practicing the Eight-Sword Breaking Technique in his small courtyard.

He was holding an ordinary iron knife and demonstrating the techniques according to the instructions in the knife manual.

He began with a stance, then slashed, parried, and blocked! He followed the instructions exactly, fearing he might miss even the slightest detail.

A breeze brushed past his ears, carrying the coolness of the early morning. Beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, trickling down his jawline.

It's been about twenty minutes already. Because no one is teaching me, the progress is slow, and the knife technique hasn't been recorded on the panel yet.

"Phew~ Keep going!"

This sword technique isn't difficult; it's on par with the Five Animal Fist. It's just that without a teacher, it's naturally a bit slower.

Once... twice...

Wang Anping wielded an iron knife with great force.

【Breaking the Edge Eight Cuts 3\100 Entry Point】

The panel beeped, and Wang Anping stopped what he was doing and quickly opened it to check.

[Host: Wang Anping]

Age: 17

【Five Animal Fist 506/1000 Ming Jin】

[Five Elements Stance Exercise 135/500 to Enter the Power Phase]

[Xingyiquan 1042/2000 Dark Power]

【Breaking the Edge Eight Cuts 3\100 Entry Point】

[Martial Arts Realm: Dark Strength]

"Finally included!"

The panel has changed a lot in the past two or three days. He has added the Five Elements Stance to his daily practice of Xingyi Quan.

Although you only practice for two hours a day, you will gain more proficiency in stance training, so you will improve very quickly.

Seeing the Eight Blades of Breaking Edge listed on the panel, a smile appeared on his face.

He glanced at it, then started practicing again.

.......

Around eleven o'clock, Wang Anping walked towards the martial arts school.

According to the plan, he would practice swordsmanship and stance training in his own courtyard in the morning, and then come to the martial arts school to practice martial arts in the afternoon and evening.

The streets gradually became lively, with people coming and going.

Seeing all the delicious food, he, who hadn't had lunch yet, was very tempted.

Wang Anping found a relatively clean stall selling something similar to wontons and sat down.

"Boss, give me a bowl too." After glancing at the portion size in the bowl of the diner next to him, he hesitated for a moment, then said again, "Give me three bowls."

"Alright, please wait a moment, sir." The owner deftly put the wonton-like stuff into the pot.

Just as Wang Anping was pondering what Chen Chaoming and Chen Zhiyang were plotting, the conversation of the diners next to him caught his attention.

"Nonsense, how could that be!" A middle-aged man with a short beard questioned the person next to him.

The man being questioned was the same age as his companion, and had a thin face. Upon hearing his companion's questioning, he quickly defended himself:

"How can it not be possible? I saw it with my own eyes!"

The Shahe Gang is searching everywhere for babies, those born to refugees outside the city, one for each of them, given a bag of rice. Those who can't afford a "safe haven fee" are simply taken!

"They've bought and robbed fifty or sixty babies, just from the ones I know of!"

The gaunt man spoke in a very low voice, and those around him could barely hear what the two were saying. Only Wang Anping, who had broken through the Dark Force and had sharp hearing and eyesight, could hear their conversation.

Hearing his companion speak so earnestly, the doubtful expression on the man with the short beard gradually disappeared.

"What are they going to do with so many babies?"

"Who knows? Anyway, be careful. I remember your daughter-in-law just gave birth. Don't let her be taken away."

"What you're saying is making me scared. I need to finish eating and get back to work. I'm still short of the money for next year's peace and safety fund."

The short-bearded man was quite frightened. He was 48 years old, his son had just gotten married, and his grandson had just been born.

He worked hard all his life and finally had a grandson. If he lost him because he couldn't afford the fees, how would he live?

"I just paid mine, but the government's spring corvée tax is still far from being collected. Let's go."

The thin man's face was full of worry when money was mentioned.

After finishing their meal, the two hurriedly headed towards the dock.

After the two left, Wang Anping focused on finishing the food in his bowl, wondering what they had been saying.

If he wasn't mistaken, the object of the sacrifice that day should have been an infant.

So, the Jinsha Gang's constant acquisition of babies must be...

"Damn this world!"

He didn't understand and couldn't stand it, but there was nothing he could do.

He is not yet powerful enough to be invincible and capable of changing the world.

"How much does the boss charge?"

"Sir, five coins a bowl," the stall owner replied with a smile.

Seeing this, Wang Anping took out fifteen copper coins from his pocket and placed them on the table.

It only takes about ten minutes to walk from the house to the martial arts school.

As he approached the main gate, two inner courtyard disciples on duty saw him and called out to him:

Good morning, Senior Brother Wang.

Good morning, senior brother.

Wang Anping nodded in response. He hadn't received this kind of treatment when he was at the Ming Jin stage; the disciples on duty would at most nod in acknowledgment.

It seems that news of his breakthrough to the Dark Force realm has already spread.

The two men watched him walk into the martial arts school with enthusiastic expressions on their faces.

In this county, internal strength is considered the pinnacle, and no one dares to underestimate it.

As he walked into the martial arts school, he greeted every disciple he saw along the way.

Good morning, Senior Brother Wang.

Good morning, senior!

Heading towards the inner courtyard, the eldest disciple was teaching martial arts to the inner courtyard disciples.

When he saw Wang Anping walk in, he nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

"Junior brother, have you moved out?"

Wang Anping was surprised that the other party would actually take the initiative to talk to him after he had rejected him twice.

It must be due to the strength of his internal energy.

"Yes, senior brother, we won't need that courtyard anymore." Wang Anping nodded in response.

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhiyang stepped forward, smiled, and said kindly:

"It's better to move out. It's too noisy inside the martial arts gym, which isn't suitable for practicing martial arts."

Junior brother, you've just broken through to the Dark Force realm, so you probably haven't fully adapted to using your strength yet. Would you like me, your senior brother, to spar with you?"

Offering a hand? Wang Anping was actually a little confused about the person in front of him. Was this person trying to get closer to him?

Does he have that kind of vision?

After thinking it over, Wang Anping decided it didn't matter. Having someone to spar with and help him improve his skills was a good thing. Regardless of the other party's motives, he hadn't suffered any losses.

"Okay, thank you, Senior Brother!"

"Haha, come on, let's go over there and not disturb their martial arts practice."

Chen Zhiyang chuckled twice and gestured for Wang Anping to go to the corner.

"Senior Brother Wang, my father needs to speak with you."

Just as Wang Anping was about to walk over, Chen Cuiting's voice came from behind.

The two stopped what they were doing. Wang Anping turned to look at his master's daughter and asked curiously:

"What does Master want with me?"

"It's good news, you should go now." Chen Cuiting had a gossipy smile on her face, but she didn't say what it was.
