Martial Arts: Starting with Bajiquan, I will prove my divine power through the ultimate path!

"Impossible, right? A metal object that makes a sound can kill someone? Or scare them to death?"

"There's no such thing as a weapon that can kill a martial artist. My uncle is a martial artist, and his greatest strength lies in his fists. He can crack a half-meter-long rock with a single punch. Can someone who doesn't practice martial arts kill a martial artist with a weapon? Hah, I don't believe it!"

"I don't believe it either. It's impossible. If such a thing existed, what would be the point of practicing martial arts?"

"Yeah, you can't possibly practice martial arts and then get killed by someone who doesn't..."

More and more disciples gathered under the tree to discuss the matter.

The main thing is the content of Huang Xuanhe's conversation; it's so captivating.

The outer disciples present were all young and vigorous men aged 12 to 20, full of youthful energy and curiosity about the world outside Black Cloud County.

In no time, more than twenty people had gathered around.

Chatting under the shade of a tree.

However, most of the conversations were with Huang Xuanhe, and few people actually spoke.

Occasionally, someone would ask a question or two.

"Actually, I don't believe it either."

Huang Xuanhe leaned against a tree, his feet planted on a tree stump, and scoffed, "It's probably just a story passed down through generations, haha. The most powerful weapon in the world is a martial artist; only a martial artist can unleash destructive power beyond the imagination of ordinary people!"

"You may not have seen how powerful a real martial arts master is."

"And I've seen it!"

"Back in the Longcang River in Guanzhou, there was a strange beast that roamed the river like a vicious water dragon, causing havoc. A martial arts master from Guanzhou couldn't stand it any longer, so he entered the river and fought it hand-to-hand. He dragged the vicious dragon ashore to continue the fight, and during the battle, he caused a small mountain to collapse!"

"That martial arts master was later rewarded by the government with 5000 taels of silver and a mansion in the wealthy district of the prefecture, and was then hired as an instructor in the prefectural army!"

"I don't know if you've heard of this person, his name is Xing Tao, the Rebellious Dragon."

hiss……

Upon hearing these words,

Everyone present gasped in shock.

They were envious of the rewards, such as 5000 taels of silver and a mansion.

At the same time, they were shocked by the tremendous destructive power of the mountains collapsing and the earth splitting apart when they fought the evil dragon!

If Huang Xuanhe hadn't said it, they would never have imagined that there could be such a powerful being in the world.

"Do you know why those powerful martial arts masters don't have any decent weapons?"

"Because for powerful martial artists, their bodies are their most resilient weapons; weapons made of ordinary metal simply cannot withstand the high-intensity bursts of power they unleash!"

"When you reach the later stages of martial arts training, your body becomes as indestructible as if cast from bronze or iron. You can stand there and let me hack at you, and I won't kill you!"

Huang Xuanhe scoffed, "How could a martial artist possibly be killed by a piece of metal?"

His words resonated with many young people.

Although Huang Xuanhe shares the same surname as Huang Dequan.

They are not relatives.

Huang Xuanhe is very young, and looks about 13 years old.

I don't know his background. He was brought by Master Li Heshan himself. He didn't learn any martial arts when he came. He left on time and sometimes he didn't even come to the boxing academy.

It is said that this kid comes from a wealthy and powerful family. He offended someone in the prefecture city, so he ran to Heiyun County to avoid trouble.

Although Huang Xuanhe was young, he was knowledgeable and arrogant. He was always chauffeured around by carriage, and his outfit was something that an ordinary person could not afford even after working for decades!

Even someone like Huang Dequan, who managed to curry favor with an inner court disciple.

No one dared to offend Huang Xuanhe.

He leaned over and offered a cigarette, laughing, "Junior brother, so now you know why Black Cloud County has been so chaotic lately? My restaurant's business has been disrupted by these out-of-towners."

"I don't smoke this kind of junk tobacco."

Huang Xuanhe flicked away the cigarette that Huang Dequan offered him.

Huang Dequan felt a pang of heartache, knowing that he had bought the tobacco for 5 guan per jin, intending to expand his network at the boxing academy and demonstrate his uniqueness.

Unexpectedly, Huang Xuanhe not only refused to smoke, but also threw away his cigarette.

"It's very simple."

Huang Xuanhe took out a black object from the wooden box he carried with him, lit it, and exhaled.

He said, "Our Heiyun County is located on the border of Tiannan Prefecture. Although it's quite far, with Tiannan Prefecture in chaos, how could those refugees not flock to our area?"

"Those who manage to escape war-torn areas alive are no ordinary people; they are either ruthless or resourceful."

"There must be martial artists among the refugees. These people have come from so far away; how could they not be skilled?"

"These people came to Heiyun County probably hoping to stay and make a living."

Huang Xuanhe exhaled a puff of smoke.

He acted like a little adult, exuding confidence and arrogance from the inside out, as well as a noble temperament that many outer court disciples did not possess.

"Won't Black Cloud County be thrown into chaos? Won't rebels attack?"

Some outer court disciples were worried, and many others joined in the discussion.

It was already a difficult place to live in Heiyun County. Gangs, clerks, and all sorts of people were in complete chaos, making it very difficult for ordinary people like them to survive.

Suddenly, these outsiders appeared and started competing for food.

Their living space has shrunk.

If the rebels attack, wouldn't we be doomed?

"What's there to be afraid of!"

Huang Xuanhe laughed heartily, "The Prince personally led the Xiangnan Army to suppress the rebellion; there's absolutely no way they can lose!"

"Your Highness, you know them, right? The martial arts masters on the Liang Dynasty's Hidden Dragon Ranking, and the Xiangnan Army, are even more formidable. Although they number less than ten thousand, even their weakest soldiers are Blood Tempering stage martial artists. They could easily sweep through them!"

"I also heard that the imperial court issued many bounty orders, and many martial arts masters and even powerful figures from sects went to kill people."

"Suppressing the rebellion is only a matter of time!"

The outer disciples breathed a sigh of relief, while simultaneously feeling awe towards this young master from an extraordinary background.

Ordinary people wouldn't know so many things!

"Junior Brother Huang, what are you smoking?"

Huang Dequan said with a fawning smile, "The packaging looks quite exquisite, it must be very expensive, right?"

"What's it to you what this thing is called? You can't afford it anyway, so why ask so many questions?"

Huang Xuanhe smiled disdainfully. He had been spoiled by his family since childhood and was hot-blooded. He looked down on such sycophants.

Huang Dequan was humiliated and blushed, but dared not offend the boy.

But to save face, he chuckled and said, "It's just a brown stick, how could I not afford it?"

"This thing is called a cigar. It came from overseas by a group of foreign merchants in the northern region, where there are dozens of kingdoms and regional warlords. It's only sold in the city. A box of five costs 50 taels of silver. Can you even afford that?"

These words were spoken.

The eyes of the outer disciples present all changed.

Even Huang Dequan was shocked; his family's small restaurant only earned about a hundred taels a month.

As a result, this brown stick costs 10 taels of silver each.

He really is a rich young master from out of town, powerful and influential!

The discussion under the shade of the tree was still going on, but it was mostly the outer disciples asking Huang Xuan some questions.

Shi Wen, who was practicing his boxing, remained calm and did not join in the fun.

Only when he heard certain topics did his pupils shrink slightly, showing considerable shock.

He expressed his regret over his senior brother Li's injury.

To be honest, Senior Brother Li treated him quite well, and the other party had a great chance of becoming a martial artist. Who knew things would suddenly turn out like this?

"How about we go see Senior Brother Li tonight?"

Shi Wen was deep in thought.

At this moment, a group of people came out from the inner courtyard.

Yan Kai, who was leading the group, called out in their direction, "Junior Brother Huang, let's grab a bite to eat sometime! Junior Brother Qin broke through to the next level, let's celebrate!"

"Okay, senior brother!"

Huang Dequan was overjoyed, and he even subconsciously straightened his clothes.

He never imagined that he would be qualified to dine with this group of inner court martial artists.

"Get out of the way, Senior Brother Yan wasn't calling you."

Wei Shan stopped him with disgust, "Who do you think you are? Do you think you're qualified to attend Junior Brother Qin's celebration banquet?"

"We're calling for Huang Xuan and Junior Brother Huang!"
