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

Chapter 96 A Girl's Thoughts

For the next two days, Wang Anping stayed at the guest courtyard of the Zhao residence.

He lives a secluded life, spending most of his time practicing martial arts to improve his proficiency.

Zhao Zhongkun would occasionally come to keep him company, his attitude warm and his conversations mostly revolving around discussing martial arts.

They might tell stories about the scenery of Northwest China or ancient legends about Piaomiao Peak, clearly intending to make friends.

Moreover, his attitude improved after he learned that Wang Anping was only eighteen years old.

There are quite a few people with the Transformation Realm at the age of eighteen!

But this was the first time he had ever seen someone who had reached the Transformation Realm at the age of eighteen and came from a small county under Liangzhou.

Without the guidance of a prestigious family, being able to reach this level at this age can only mean one thing!

That means the other person is a genius! And one with exceptional talent!

Who wouldn't want to befriend a genius? It's just a matter of talking and giving them some benefits.

If the other person really becomes a big shot in the future, then it will be a good thing!

During the conversation, Wang Anping handled the situation appropriately, neither servile nor arrogant.

His occasional questions were always to the point, which made Zhao Zhongkun's opinion of him rise even higher.

On the contrary, Miss Zhao Qingyue became a frequent visitor to the guest courtyard.

At first, they used their father's name to send some exquisite pastries and seasonal fruits, euphemistically called "fulfilling the hospitality of the host."

Later, he couldn't help but start testing Wang Anping's strength and level of expertise.

Seeing that Wang Anping didn't like talking about these things, she used the excuse of asking about martial arts.

Wang Anping initially only gave a few perfunctory remarks, touching on the point briefly.

However, Zhao Qingyue is extremely intelligent and often able to apply what she has learned to other situations.

The questions he asked became increasingly insightful, revealing his remarkable comprehension.

Seeing that she was genuinely seeking advice and was very respectful, Wang Anping occasionally added a few words.

Although he is young, he possesses the cultivation level of Transformation Realm, and his vision and knowledge have already surpassed those of his peers.

Often, just a few words are enough to dispel the fog in Zhao Qingyue's mind, giving her a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"Brother Wang, you said yesterday that when the mind is there, the spirit is there, and when the spirit is there, the strength is there."

How exactly should one focus this intention, and how can it be harmonized with one's Qi and blood?

That afternoon, Zhao Qingyue came again and sat on the stone bench in the courtyard.

He rested his chin on his hands, his gaze fixed intently on Wang Anping, who was standing quietly under the tree.

She had naturally changed her form of address, from "Young Master Wang" to the more intimate "Brother Wang".

Wang Anping turned around, pondered for a moment, and said, "It's not about forcing things, but about letting things happen naturally. Take these fallen leaves, for example."

He casually plucked a half-yellow leaf, flicked it with his fingertip, and the leaf did not fall in a straight line.

Instead, it traced a gentle arc and landed softly on the stone table in front of Zhao Qingyue.

"I did not deliberately exert force; it was just that when my mind moved, my blood and qi surged slightly, and strength was generated spontaneously."

When you practice, try to feel the flow of your own Qi and blood.

Do not force them; try to communicate with them and guide them.

Over time, one's intention will naturally harmonize with one's vital energy and strength.

Although his cultivation level was improved through proficiency, don't forget that every bit of proficiency was earned through hard work, so his martial arts experience is not low.

Moreover, he understood what the other party meant, but since he was staying at their place, it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to answer some questions occasionally. Zhao Qingyue stared intently at the fallen leaf, and felt the harmonious and intangible aura that Wang Anping had just exhaled with a flick of his finger.

His eyes gradually brightened, as if he had caught something.

She was already exceptionally intelligent, and with this guidance, she suddenly understood many of the things that had previously been difficult for her.

My admiration and curiosity for Wang Anping grew like spring grass.

The young man before them not only possessed unfathomable cultivation, but was also remarkably young.

Moreover, she possessed a calm and composed demeanor, unlike any of her peers.

Young girls are most easily attracted to such mysterious, powerful, and unique qualities.

After a few days of getting to know each other, Zhao Qingyue's gaze toward Wang Anping was no longer just filled with curiosity and admiration, but also with a sense of closeness and adoration that she herself might not have fully understood.

She would take note of his favorite snacks and quietly instruct the kitchen to prepare them.

She would pretend to pass by while he was practicing his martial arts and secretly watch for a while.

Her cheeks gradually flushed more often when she spoke to him.

All of this, naturally, did not escape the notice of another pair of eyes.

Lin Yunshu has been restless and anxious these past few days.

He had always been fond of his talented and beautiful cousin Zhao Qingyue, considering her the perfect choice for his future partner.

He was secretly delighted to be able to accompany them to Misty Peak.

They thought it was a great opportunity to strengthen their relationship. But then Wang Anping suddenly appeared!

This person's origins are unknown, yet he is highly regarded by his uncle, and even his cousin Qingyue treats him differently.

He kept calling him "Brother Wang" all day long, asking him all sorts of questions, and the light in his eyes was something he had never seen before.

Wang Anping, on the other hand, had a cold and indifferent attitude, but my cousin just fell for it!

What frustrated Lin Yunshu even more was that he had privately inquired about Wang Anping's background from his uncle Zhao Zhongkun.

Zhao Zhongkun was vague in his words, only instructing him to treat him with utmost courtesy and not to be negligent.

He also tried to show off his family background and cultivation level to Wang Anping—he was already at the early stage of Dark Force in his early twenties, which was indeed quite good among his peers.

He even casually mentioned that his Lin family had some connection with a certain outer sect steward of Piaofeng, but the other party's reaction was extremely indifferent.

It was as if he was only talking about the weather today; that subtle neglect hurt him more than direct mockery.

Jealousy and resentment spread like poisonous weeds in his heart.

He grew increasingly displeased with Wang Anping, feeling that the man was feigning profundity and must have used some means to deceive his uncle and cousin.

Lin Yunshu's face darkened completely when she saw Zhao Qingyue walking briskly towards the guest courtyard once again.

He stood in the shadows of the corridor, gazing at his cousin's slender back, then looking at the closed door of the guest courtyard, his eyes flickering.

"Hmph, he's just a pretentious amateur, how dare he make Qingyue care so much?"

Once you reach Misty Peak, a place teeming with geniuses, let's see if you'll still be so smug!

Lin Yunshu clenched her fists, secretly thinking, "On the way—I'd better not let you catch me doing anything wrong."

Even if we can't catch them, the selection process at Misty Peak is based on strength, and we'll see the results then!

Qingyue will eventually understand who truly deserves her!

He made up his mind that on the rest of the journey, he would find an opportunity to embarrass Wang Anping in public.

At the very least, I need to let my cousin see clearly who is more reliable and who has more ability!

In the guest courtyard, after Wang Anping finished giving Zhao Qingyue his instructions, he said no more and gestured for her to figure it out on her own.

Zhao Qingyue was also well-behaved; after thanking them, she left the courtyard.

After she left, Wang Anping drifted off into thought, contemplating his next move.

He was still worried about his family and thought he should pay more attention to the news in the future. If the Liangzhou army was defeated, he would have to ride back as fast as he could.

The girl's increasingly obvious admiring gaze, and the gloomy, jealous look from the distant corridor.

He wasn't completely oblivious, but he simply didn't take it to heart.

A tiger will not care about the roadside weeds, nor will it bother to pay attention to the jackals lurking in the shadows.

His goals have always been higher and farther.

As long as they don't actually block his way, a few emotional ripples are nothing more than insignificant dust along the way.
