Starting with fishing, I've traversed a chaotic world of demons and martial arts.

"I've made a fool of myself, Senior Hongfei."

Li Tianxing's voice interrupted Hongfei's thoughts.

Hongfei looked at Li Tianxing, his eyes filled with intense expectation:

"Alright, alright, Tianxing!"

Your level of understanding is truly unprecedented in my life.

If I could take you as my apprentice.

It's my good fortune, Hongfei.

Would you be willing to become my personal disciple?

That is, my closing the door...

Before he could finish speaking, Hongfei caught a glimpse of Da Guang standing at the door.

He then remembered when he took Da Guang as his disciple.

He once said that Da Guang was his last disciple.

He immediately changed his tune, saying:

"Uh... a disciple who locks the gate!"

Locked-door disciples? What are those?

Li Tianxing didn't care about that.

He quickly made a decision in his mind...

As a fisherman, I have always drifted on the river.

Indeed, there is no proper teacher or foundation.

It's hard to say where he learned all those skills later on.

Chen Tong was his mentor, but now his kung fu is ruined, and his highest strength is only at the Blood Bone Realm.

Hei Yan isn't a bad person; he was very serious about teaching me kung fu.

But he was more like an upper-level member of the team, and he held back some of his own abilities.

Moreover, I don't even understand the internal structure and personnel composition of "Zhenhai Pavilion"...

The relationship between Zhenhai Pavilion and me.

It's just like the pavilion in the sky above the sea on the Zhenhai Pavilion token.

I am like that sea, although I still have great potential for development.

But we are still too far from that castle in the air!

The best place for me to develop right now is Hongyun Martial Arts School!

Unlike joining the police force, you won't be subject to the constraints of the system.

You don't have to join a gang and become someone else's subordinate or henchman.

Moreover, Hongyun Martial Arts School is the strongest martial arts school in Anlan County.

Joining Hongyun Martial Arts Academy is like adding a layer of background and protection to your life.

Regardless of when Hongfei gave me this set of boxing techniques...

Whether it's a test for me or something else entirely, I don't care.

In short, this set of boxing techniques is the best gift Hongfei gave himself.

It completely filled the gap in my lack of attack methods.

Now I have the Raging Wave Fist Technique, and the Palm Thunder Palm Technique.

The close-quarters combat techniques are already comprehensive enough.

Then I'll learn another weapon to enhance my attack style.

As for firearms, I have mastered the technique of shooting.

It will get stronger over time, so I don't need to worry.

I've made up my mind, I'm going to join Hongyun Martial Arts School.

After quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Li Tianxing...

He then immediately performed the apprenticeship ceremony and said:

"I, Li Tianxing, am just a fisherman at Qinghe Wharf."

It was through my own hard work that I had the opportunity to step into the Hongyun Martial Arts School.

Now, I am fortunate to have gained the appreciation of Master Hong. If Master Hong does not reject me, I am willing to become his disciple!

Hongfei hadn't expected that Li Tianxing was not only highly perceptive.

Even her words resonated with him.

Hongfei found Li Tianxing more and more pleasing to the eye.

He grinned and burst into loud laughter.

Hongfei came to Li Tianxing's side and helped him up:

"Haha, great!"

My good disciple, please rise quickly!

From now on, you will be my fourth personally taught disciple, Hongfei.

From now on, you will be more than just a fisherman at Qinghe Wharf.

You are also a disciple of Hongfei, a student of my Hongyun Martial Arts School.

From now on, when you're out in public, you'll be using the name of my Hongyun Martial Arts School.

No matter who bullies you, don't be afraid, your master is here!

At this point, Hongfei turned to look at his son:

"Ah Meng, hurry up and bring the tea up."

Have your junior brother serve tea!

Your junior brother is tired from studying the boxing techniques today, so let him rest for a while.

The "tea ceremony" is a crucial and indispensable part of the apprenticeship ceremony.

It's much more than just drinking a cup of tea.

Rather, it is a solemn ceremony that establishes a title and symbolizes the continuation of a tradition!

The word "tea" also carries the meanings of "inspection," "finding fault," and "insight."

For example, examining a disciple's character and potential.

Find fault, point out mistakes, and strictly discipline.

They are also discerning and meticulous, and strictly adhere to the rules of the sect.

Hongmeng shook his head and obediently went to serve the tea.

Oh dear, how am I going to live from now on...?

Am I my father's biological son, or is Li Tianxing his biological son?

Could it be that Li Tianxing is my father's illegitimate son?

But my father was of good character and had always been passionate about martial arts.

He never remarried after my mother passed away, and he doesn't seem like a dissolute man at all...

……

Hongyun Martial Arts School.

The main hall is the martial arts arena.

Hongfei sat upright in the grand chair in the room.

Li Tianxing was wearing a black training jacket.

She wore loose-fitting trousers and cloth shoes with multi-layered soles.

He looked very clean and neat!

Li Tianxing stood upright beside Hongfei.

soon……

Hongmeng, looking miserable, brought over a teapot and placed it on the table beside him.

Then he carefully withdrew.

Li Tianxing took the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Hongfei:

"Master, please have some tea."

From now on, I will respect my teacher and study martial arts diligently.

Let us promote the prestigious name of Hongyun Martial Arts School!

Hongfei took the tea and drank it all in one gulp.

He then stood up and looked at everyone standing in the training ground.

Three of his personally taught disciples were present.

Li Tianxing, Hongmeng, and Daguang.

Besides the three of them, there were nearly twenty outer disciples.

Those who can learn martial arts at Hongyun Martial Arts School are basically young people with good talent or from well-off families.

Hongfei scanned the room, his voice ringing out:

"Today, I, Hongfei, have accepted my fourth personal disciple, Li Tianxing."

You've probably all heard of him to some extent.

I don't care what his past identity was, from now on...

He, Li Tianxing, is your senior brother, understand?

At this moment, the eyes of more than a dozen outer disciples in the arena were all fixed on Li Tianxing.

The last time Li Tianxing came to Hongyun Martial Arts School to spar with Da Guang.

They then witnessed Li Tianxing's strength.

Plus……

I also heard that Li Tianxing helped the police department crack the Purdue Church case.

They also killed the leader of the Pudu Sect, who was Zhang Zhengqi, the young leader of the Black Dragon Gang.

Not only that...

Two days ago, he confronted the eldest son of the Su family at the entrance of Boguzhai...

They still have a slight advantage.

Therefore, considering Li Tianxing's past record...

None of the dozen or so people in the room were dissatisfied with Li Tianxing.

Moreover, they were all completely convinced of Li Tianxing's abilities!

Li Tianxing is now a member of Hongyun Martial Arts School.

This will give them even more to brag about in the future!

They simultaneously clasped their hands in a fist and bowed, saying:

"Greetings, Senior Brother Tianxing!"

The voices weren't loud, but they were all martial artists who had entered the realm.

More than a dozen people clasped their hands in salute at the same time and shouted Li Tianxing's name in unison.

This resulted in a considerable echo within the training ground.

Li Tianxing listened to the echoes inside the arena and looked at the dozen or so people below.

He glanced again at Hongmeng and Daguang, who were standing at the very front.

And his master, Hongfei, who was sitting next to him.

A sense of belonging suddenly arose in Li Tianxing's heart.

Li Tianxing raised his hand and pressed it down, indicating that everyone did not need to bow.

"Brothers, from now on we're all family."

I hope that everyone can go further and further on their martial arts journey in the future.

If you encounter any bottlenecks in your practice and would like to spar with me or ask for my guidance, feel free to come to me anytime!

Wishing everyone great fortune and continuous progress in martial arts!

After Li Tianxing finished speaking, he returned the greeting with a fist and palm salute.

Hongfei shouted:

"Men, fire the cannons!"

The servants of Hongyun Martial Arts School then lit the prepared string of firecrackers!

"Crackling and popping—"

Red petals carpeted the ground, creating a joyous atmosphere.

The sound was deafening, echoing throughout the entire West Market.

A breeze blows—

The news spread throughout Anlan County!
