In middle age, one's comprehension becomes extraordinary.

Chapter 73 Saturday Arrives

The Xia family residence.

Xia Zhao's father has been called back.

He has come up with a bunch of excuses to decline, and even video-called his mother to show her how busy he is.

But Grandma Xia Zhao insisted that he go home immediately unless it was something catastrophic.

On the way back, Xia Zhao's father was full of complaints, and his expression was very unpleasant.

Upon returning to the Xia family mansion, he was immediately taken to the training room by his mother.

His father, the head of the Xia family, was also present at that moment.

And they are practicing the core moves of the Shattered Feather Blade.

With just one glance, he sensed a different aura and power.

The biggest weakness of the Shattered Feather Blade is its weak attack power.

When he encountered the ferocious beast, the Shattered Feather Blade could no longer be his main martial skill.

Its power is too weak to inflict a fatal wound on a ferocious beast.

But now, he could clearly sense how powerful the Broken Feather Blade his father used was.

His mind raced, and he even began to doubt whether this was the Shattered Feather Blade.

"This is something your daughter figured out. Now you know why I urged you to come back immediately, right?"

Xia Zhao's father did not respond. He simply took out a knife and began practicing the evolved Shattered Feather Blade.

I tried several times, but I still only managed to learn the form.

Xia Cheng turned his head to look at his father, and the Xia family patriarch showed a helpless smile.

"Let Xiao Zhao teach you; I've only learned a little bit myself."

She said that she didn't really understand some of the difficulties, but she knew how to cultivate herself to change them.

Let her teach you herself, and see if you can understand the deeper meaning.

Hearing his father's words, Xia Cheng's doubts deepened.

He is the youngest grandmaster in the Xia family, and also the most talented martial arts genius recognized by the Xia family.

At the age of fifty-nine, he broke through to the Grandmaster realm.

But this time he didn't quite understand what it meant to "not understand the difficulties, but just know how to cultivate and change"?

The practice of martial arts should not be taken lightly.

You can pretend to be confused, but you absolutely cannot be truly confused.

The path of martial arts is often like building a house.

If you don't lay a solid foundation, how can you move forward?

Xia Zhao only knows a little bit of the basics, how can he cultivate and master the profound mysteries?

Furthermore, Xia Cheng believed that to master the mysteries of martial arts, one must first comprehend them before one can truly grasp them through practice.

There's no such thing as mastering something first and then trying to understand it...

Thinking of this, Xia Cheng suddenly guessed something and immediately asked his father and mother.

Ask Xia Zhao if anything has happened to her recently.

Upon hearing this, Grandma Xia Zhao hesitated for a moment before revealing the information she had gathered.

"Xiao Zhao is thirty years old now, and we won't interfere with her decisions."

The people below, after thinking it over, still informed me before sending me the training qualification for Snow Shadow Mountain.

This time, instead of exchanging gifts with her two friends, she gave them to a young man.

Upon hearing that it was a young man, Xia Cheng frowned slightly.

"Jin Fan, Yao Jianyue's third disciple."

Xia Cheng had never heard of the name Jin Fan.

But Yao Jianyue, he definitely knew.

I don't really like Yao Jianyue.

He made a soft comment, and his father stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.

"Your opinion is not important. What matters is that your daughter is grown up and she feels good about it herself."

Upon returning from Qijia Town, she immediately began investigating Jin Fan's identity.

It's likely that he and Jin Fan had a shared experience in Qijia Town.

I was injured that time, but fortunately, my foundation wasn't damaged.

After fully recovering, the child said he had gained many new insights.

Xia Cheng frowned and thought carefully: "Are Yao Jianyue's disciples really that outstanding?"

"In just a few days, you can give Xiao Zhao pointers and help her overcome the difficulties of my Xia family's top-tier martial arts technique?"

No one around her responded; only Xia Zhao knew the specifics of the situation.

"Xiao Zhao is already capable of handling things on her own, so let's not interfere."

If I'm not mistaken, she will lead the Xia family to take another step forward.

I plan to give her more authority over the allocation of resources at home.

The head of the Xia family told his son about his decision.

Xia Cheng knew that his daughter's martial arts talent had surpassed his own, thanks to her ability to further improve and enhance the Shattered Feather Blade.

She is also entitled to more.

"To be honest, I still feel a chill when I think about what happened in Qijia Town."

"Have you found any clues about those mutated ferocious beasts?"

As they spoke, Grandma Xia Zhao brought up the matter of Qijia Town.

The danger posed by the mutated ferocious beast nearly killed Xia Zhao.

Upon hearing this, Xia Cheng shook his head.

"We entered Qijia Town multiple times and conducted a thorough search, but found nothing."

It was precisely because they found nothing that the matter became even more complicated.

The implications behind the mutated beast may be far greater than anticipated.

During these past few days, Li Yuan attended classes as usual during the day and began to meditate and cultivate at night.

On Thursday at noon, Director Zeng drove over.

The two had lunch together outside the school.

He came to talk about the match on Saturday.

Director Zeng has been trying to find a solution these past few days, but after much thought, he hasn't come up with anything particularly suitable.

If this matter is not handled properly, it will directly affect Li Yuan's promotion.

But now, not participating will have an impact.

Participation will also have an impact.

Losing this match will cause Li Yuan to lose a lot of the reputation he gained in the Qingwu Tournament.

Jin Fan and Gu Yu definitely have connections; they'll publicize it extensively when the time comes.

This will have a very significant impact on Li Yuan.

Li Yuan made no attempt to hide his intentions, indicating that he was ready to fight.

Since there's no way to avoid it, then let's have a match with Gu Yu.

Upon hearing this answer, Director Zeng did not immediately deny it. He hesitated for a moment and then offered some reminders.

"There is a big difference between the Qingwu Tournament and martial arts competitions. You did win against Gu Yu last time."

But during this period, he focused on studying your martial arts skills.

Disciples of grandmasters are not so easy to deal with.

"6

All Director Zeng can do now is offer these reminders.

Principal Yin's arrangements this time have put people in a dilemma.

Thursday passed, and Friday quickly came to an end as well.

Tomorrow is the competition disguised as a teaching task.

Because it's a teaching activity, students will be coming to participate again tomorrow, so there will be a lot of spectators for this competition.

With the media invited by the school leaders, it's bound to be quite a spectacle.

Li Yuan maintained his usual routine, and before Saturday, his martial arts realm finally advanced to the fifth rank of perfection.

With resources and even better techniques, Li Yuan felt that his martial arts realm was improving too quickly.

At dawn, around nine o'clock, Li Yuan took a bus to Lingshan No. 1 Middle School.

School should be quiet on Saturdays.

But today, many students from Lingshan No.1 Middle School came.

The area around the school's large playground had already been occupied by students from each class.

At 10:10, Li Yuan arrived at Lingshan No.1 Middle School.

This martial arts training session is scheduled for 11:00 AM.

Online, the trolls who were praising Gu Yu and Jin Fan were already in place.

These online trolls emphasized that the Qingwu Tournament had too much luck involved.

Someone brought up the results of the previous contest between Li Yuan and Gu Yu.

These online trolls are starting to bring up the fact that Gu Yu held back back then.

They even accused Li Yuan of using this victory to promote himself for the rest of his life.
