Full-Time Martial Saint

The next day, at six o'clock in the morning.

When Chen Cong woke up, Luo Yunfeng was tiptoeing as he put on his shoes, preparing to go out.

Seeing Chen come down, he quickly asked, "Did I disturb you?"

Chen Cong smiled and shook his head: "I'm used to getting up at this time. Thanks a lot, Brother Luo, for last night."

Luo Yunfeng waved his hand and smiled sheepishly, "No...it's nothing."

"However, you used up a lot of mental energy last night, so you should get some more sleep today. I'll try not to come back and bother you today."

His sense of propriety and thoughtful consideration for others made Chen Cong feel very comfortable and touched.

Taking out toiletries from the cabinet next to him, Chen Cong continued, "The early bird catches the worm, and we can't slack off on our cultivation."

Watching Chen Cong disappear into the bathroom, Luo Yunfeng paused for a moment, then sighed with a touch of self-deprecation, "I thought I'd tried my best, but I never expected to run into someone even more stubborn than me..."

He shook his head, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave the dormitory.

After a quick wash, Chen changed into his training uniform and leisurely walked towards the canteen.

Although he had arranged to go to the Tianwu Training Hall with Xu Baiwei yesterday, and Xu Baiwei had said that she would have someone prepare brunch, it was not yet seven o'clock, so Chen Cong planned to go to the cafeteria for a regular nutritious meal first.

Firstly, it can help me recover the mental energy I consumed last night, and secondly, it can support me during the Three Elements Stance Technique later.

In the cool autumn air of September, Chen Cong walked slowly along the path leading to the canteen, breathing in the fresh morning air.

Compared to the Cultural Academy, the Martial Arts Academy is somewhat quiet on weekends, lacking the usual sight of students reading books in the morning. However, one can still occasionally see martial arts students practicing standing meditation in the morning light.

When Chen Cong arrived at the cafeteria, he unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.

"Chen Cong, you're up so early? What's wrong with your complexion?"

Ning Yuhang, who had just finished buying food, turned around and saw Chen Cong walking towards him. Noticing his slightly pale face, Ning Yuhang frowned slightly and asked.

"I stayed in the virtual realm for a bit too long last night," Chen Cong replied with a faint smile, then changed the subject: "You got up quite early today too."

Ning Yuhang sighed softly, "Don't mention it."

"I kept thinking about what you said when I got back yesterday. The more I thought about it, the more excited I got. I got up in the middle of the night to practice some boxing, and then I couldn't fall asleep."

Hearing this, Chen Cong was both amused and exasperated: "You..."

"Chen Cong, let me tell you, last night, following your guidance, I thought about it, pondered it, and tried it out, and I really had some different insights!"

"How about we find a place to spar after dinner?"

Seeing the gleam in his eyes, Chen Cong said helplessly, "You know, I promised Xu Baiwei yesterday, and today..."

"Just ten minutes, it won't interfere with your date!"

"After the sparring session, I'll have my driver personally take you to the Tianwu Training Hall!"

Ning Yuhang quickly spoke up, his pleading expression making it difficult for Chen Cong to refuse.

"Okay, let's eat first."

The customer is king, and this guy is his big spender, so how could he possibly refuse him?

"well!"

"Oh, by the way, here's this nutritious meal for you. It was just made, I haven't touched it yet!"

Ning Yuhang excitedly shoved the nutritious meal he was holding into Chen Cong's hands, saying, "Wait for me, I'll go get another one!"

Watching his retreating figure as he ran towards the window, Chen Cong looked at the nutritious meal in his hand and shook his head with a smile.

"Great! I've saved another two hundred yuan."

After the two quickly finished their meal in the cafeteria, Ning Yuhang couldn't wait to drag him to the small playground from yesterday.

"Make your move."

Chen stood still and spoke slowly.

Ning Yuhang didn't hold back and charged forward in a fighting stance.

After a moment, seeing Ning Yuhang getting more and more excited as the fight progressed, Chen Cong couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He suddenly realized that Ning Yuhang's boxing technique had indeed changed a bit compared to yesterday, and he had been able to incorporate some new skills.

Although the integration of this skill is still quite unfamiliar and the moves are not yet smooth, it can be considered as taking the first step from the "minor achievement threshold" to true minor achievement.

"Not bad." The ten minutes passed quickly, and Chen Cong couldn't help but praise, "With a little more practice and full absorption of these insights, your boxing technique will be close to the minor mastery level."

Ning Yuhang was visibly more excited to receive the affirmation.

"Right!"

"I also think that once I master these techniques, I should have a chance to reach a minor level of proficiency in boxing before the college entrance exam!"

Chen Cong nodded.

From the current perspective, it is indeed possible for Ning Yuhang to reach a minor level of mastery in Bajiquan before the college entrance examination.

However, martial arts training sometimes depends on luck, after all, not everyone is like him.

"Chen Cong, the bracelet."

Ning Yuhang suppressed the joy on his face and said seriously, "I'll transfer all the guidance fees for this month to you right now."

Chen Cong wanted to refuse, but Ning Yuhang grabbed his wrist and transferred 15000 yuan to him directly.

"That's too much. Wasn't it supposed to be 300 a day?" Chen Cong asked, frowning as he looked at the payment notification.

But Ning Yuhang shook his head seriously and said, "I think you're no worse than those ordinary private trainers outside, and you're worth the price."

"Besides, you also give us 90 minutes of guidance every day, so in the end we're the ones who benefit."

"I don't care how much others pay, I'm only paying 500 a day, otherwise it would be an insult."

Chen Cong looked at the "huge sum" that had just arrived in his account, then at Ning Yuhang's serious expression, and nodded slightly: "Thank you."

Seeing that he didn't refuse, Ning Yuhang immediately put on a smile, put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Come on, I'll have someone take you to your date."

……

Tianwu Training Hall.

Chen arrived before eight o'clock.

The receptionist at the door, seeing him, hurried over and said, "Are you Mr. Chen Cong?"

Chen nodded.

The receptionist bowed slightly: "Miss specifically instructed yesterday that if Mr. Chen arrives, he should go inside and wait. She will be here in a little while."

Chen hesitated for a moment, then nodded and followed the receptionist into the training hall.

The elevator went straight to the second floor, and the female receptionist used her work ID to open the alloy door next to Xu Baiwei's private training hall.

"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, we don't have access to Miss's private training facility. Please stay here for now. Please feel free to ask if you need anything."

Chen Cong glanced at the interior of the training hall and nodded slightly: "Thank you for your trouble."

"Mr. Chen, you're too kind. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now." The receptionist politely invited him inside, closed the door, and left.

Inside the training hall, Chen Cong looked around and found that although the facilities in this training room were also complete, it was far less luxurious than Xu Baiwei's private training room.

However, this training room costs 1888 yuan to rent for an hour, so probably half of the martial arts students in the entire martial arts academy wouldn't dare to come here easily.

Since Xu Baiwei hasn't arrived yet, he can practice the Three Elements Stance Technique first, and then do some simple training.

"Oh right, I can also test my current martial arts skill rating." Looking at the familiar machine next to him, Chen suddenly had an idea.

In the past few days, apart from testing my martial arts skills with the help of the Tianwu Training Hall's equipment when I first met Xu Baiwei, I haven't tested them again since.

Now, with new insights into Bajiquan, coupled with improvements in overall physical fitness and the newly acquired "Lingyuan Step" movement technique, Chen Cong doesn't know what his martial arts skill rating will be.
