He achieved the pinnacle of martial arts starting with breaking through the limits of Tiger Fist.

Deep in the Yunmeng Mountains, Jiang Lin did not go to the small island he had discovered earlier, but instead rowed the boat in the opposite direction.

There are many deserted islands in the swamp, so he doesn't necessarily have to go to that place.

Jiang Lin was unsure how the Long family would handle the precious plant, but if they sent someone to guard it, his arrival would inevitably cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Jiang Lin felt depressed after a half-day of wandering.

Looking at the catch in the boat, they didn't catch a single treasure fish. Besides some ordinary fish, they only caught a few "half-treasure fish".

All of this stuff adds up to at most thirty-odd taels of silver.

Is it really that mystical?

He couldn't help but recall the time when Lin Zheng was around, when a single net could catch fish worth twenty taels.

Is there really such a big difference in how much internet I downloaded today?

After glancing at the sky, Jiang Lin packed up and turned back to the boat.

As dusk approaches, the fog separates the areas.

Almost all the fishing boats began packing up and preparing to return.

People often die in this swamp during the day, let alone at night. Even experienced fishermen dare not stay in the swamp at night.

Just then, a speedboat shot out from the depths of the clouds.

The oars rowed swiftly, and the boat moved through the water as fast as a galloping horse.

The covered boat quickly sailed away, leaving behind a group of astonished fishermen.

……

At the entrance of the fish market, Jiang Lin took out ten coins.

The gatekeeper refused to accept it, but Jiang Lin eventually forced it on him.

The gatekeeper was so surprised that he thanked the guard repeatedly, almost bowing deeply.

This world is quite strange; if you are impolite, the people around you will become polite.

At Longjia Fish Stall, Jiang Lin separated the "half-treasure fish" and handed it to the waiter to weigh it.

"It's been a long time, bro."

Surprisingly, the manager surnamed Zhang still remembered him; he has a good memory.

"I've been busy practicing martial arts for the past two months, so I've been neglecting it," Jiang Lin replied casually.

"No wonder the young man has changed so much; I almost didn't recognize him."

Manager Zhang looked him up and down before speaking.

He was absolutely right. Jiang Lin had indeed changed a lot in the past few months. First of all, he had grown three inches taller, and secondly, his physique was lean, well-proportioned, and agile.

The most important thing is temperament; that composure and calmness that emanates from within is something that ordinary people cannot cultivate.

This change piqued Manager Zhang's curiosity. "May I ask, young man, which martial arts school in the city do you study at?"

"Tiger Warrior Boxing Gym"

Jiang Lin has now broken through three barriers and is now allowed to announce the name of his boxing gym.

"Wow, that's incredible!"

Manager Zhang is clearly a knowledgeable person.

Firstly, Tiger Legion Fist is already very famous. Secondly, he obviously knows some inside information and dares to mention the name of Tiger Legion Fist School. This person in front of him must have broken through three levels.

Breaking through the three barriers means you can start learning the Tiger Fist. Everyone from the city knows the power of the Tiger Fist.

Apart from the top-ranked Xingyiquan and Baguazhang, all other martial arts schools are inferior in quality.

Upon hearing the mention of Tiger Fist, Steward Zhang immediately became friendly, "What a coincidence! My young lady also practices Tiger Fist."

Speaking of Long Susu, Jiang Lin's expression immediately turned serious. "Senior Sister Long has always taken good care of me, and I still owe her a lot of favors."

Thus, Steward Zhang realized that this was the person the young lady had taken a liking to.

They kept talking back and forth, saying things they understood, but how could others understand the meaning behind their words?

Besides, Manager Zhang was so engrossed in chatting with Jiang Lin that he didn't even bother to greet the other guests.

Immediately, some people became unhappy, saying, "Is the manager even going to do business anymore? We brothers are big customers."

The person's words were not problematic, but their tone was extremely aggressive, which immediately made the two of them frown and look at them.

Three burly men with similar faces stood together, each carrying several baskets of fish, waiting!

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my younger brother doesn't know how to speak properly, please don't take offense, shopkeeper."

One of the older men bowed to the shopkeeper with a broad smile.

Manager Zhang has business to do, so he naturally won't care. Jiang Lin is even less likely to meddle in other people's business, since he wasn't speaking to him.

At this time, Jiang Lin's fish payment was also calculated. He was still a little short of thirty taels, so Steward Zhang made up the difference of thirty taels.

Upon seeing so much money, the older man couldn't help but try to get closer to Jiang Lin, saying, "Brother, you're quite capable. I admire you."

Would you believe me if I said I had bad luck?

Jiang Lin recognized the three men; they were the three brothers who had sold a fish for over a hundred taels of silver at this very dock three months ago.

Jiang Lin later practiced archery diligently, inspired by them.

"It was just a fluke."

Jiang Lin took the money and gave a casual reply.

He took the money and was about to leave when he was stopped.

"We three brothers are surnamed Wang. Today we can say that we have met. May I ask your honorable name?"

What do you mean we know each other? Who wants to know you?

Jiang Lin was too lazy to bother with him, but then he thought that quite a few people in the fish market knew him, and there was really no point in hiding his name.

So he casually cupped his hands in greeting and said, "My name is Jiang Lin, farewell."

After saying that, Jiang Lin turned around and headed towards the "Water Tiger Gang's" stronghold.

It wasn't that Jiang Lin was arrogant or putting on airs; he simply didn't like the smell emanating from these people.

It's the kind of fierce and barbaric look that's commonly described; at first glance, it gives off an impression of ignorance, savagery, and a lack of moral compass.

Moreover, Jiang Lin was quite certain that the three brothers had killed someone.

Jiang Lin wasn't afraid; he simply didn't want to pay them any attention.

He is a person who trusts his feelings very much. In both his past and present lives, he will keep his distance from anyone who makes him feel uncomfortable at first glance.

There's no particular reason; it's just the way things are between people. If you don't like someone, you just don't like them.

"Brother, this guy is so ungrateful, should we teach him a lesson?"

Now Jiang Lin has sharp ears and eyes; he can hear almost everything people say within a ten-foot radius.

Moreover, this person wasn't avoiding him when speaking; their voice was quite loud, clearly indicating they were deliberately trying to let him hear.

Jiang Lin smirked, ignoring this low-level provocation.

When he arrived at the "Water Tiger Gang's" stronghold, Chen Sanlang had already prepared a feast.

The food and drinks were extremely rustic, consisting entirely of large pieces of meat and fish, and the wine was served in jars.

"Are there other people?"

After glancing at the seating arrangement, Jiang Lin asked.

"I've recently met some good buddies; I'll introduce you to them later."

Chen Sanlang replied with great excitement.

Jiang Lin remained noncommittal. He wasn't particularly interested in knowing the people, but he still had to give Sanlang face.

Chen Sanlang appeared quite smug and continued, "Recently, although I have recruited quite a few people, I lack experts. These brothers are all skilled. Once I recruit them, I will be able to take over the grain market next door."

Chen Sanlang then clapped his hands, "At that time, not only will the power of his subordinates increase greatly, but the gang leader will also appreciate them even more, and they might even be able to pass on their unique skills."

Jiang Lin smiled. This kid has quite the ambition now, but he didn't intend to persuade him. He's in the underworld, how can he not have ambition?

Moreover, Chen Sanlang is fair in his dealings and has been managing the fish market very well these days, earning him a lot of praise from the villagers.

Look at this world, even joining a gang can earn you praise from your fellow villagers.

The two were chatting enthusiastically when a shout came from outside.

"Brother Chen, make sure there's plenty of wine tonight!"

The moment the voice fell, three people walked in from outside the door. Who else could it be but the three Wang brothers?

"Hey, isn't this Brother Jiang? What a coincidence!"

The eldest son of the Wang family wore a fake smile.

Jiang Lin nodded slightly in response, then noticed that the third son of the Wang family was staring at him with malice in his eyes.
