Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

Jiang Bai pretended to be curious and picked up the 1000-yuan Mora note, rubbing it in his palm, and asked, "Are there any bigger ones?"

"That's all, one thousand is the largest."

Hu Tao immediately saw through his little scheme to quietly slip Mora into his pocket.

With a small hand outstretched, she cried, "Give it back to me!"

Jiang Bai reluctantly returned Mora to her.

Touching his Mora, which was only worth one coin, Jiang Bai felt bitter.

This Mora, which is worth more than anything else, is all he owns...

However, learning Taoism from a sage only costs 7,000 Mora, which is truly a touching price! This sage is quite generous!

Seeing the two of them counting their money, Ah Ling assumed they were calculating whether they had enough Mora, and asked them:

"Well? Do you want to come with me and learn Taoist arts from the True Lord?"

It would be too boring if there were only them here. It would be more lively if there were more people to learn Taoist magic from the True Lord.

"We're short on cash, so we'd like to wait until we've witnessed the True Lord's Daoist techniques before making a decision," Jiang Bai said, scratching his head and smiling shyly.

With that smile, the red mark on his face changed with his smile, making it look rather funny.

Wu Cong tried to suppress a laugh, "Um, young man, would you like some medicine?"

Jiang Bai looked at Hu Tao with her big, watery eyes.

This was done by Hu Tao. We can't let him apply the medicine himself, can we?

Walnut placed her hand next to his cheek, and with a push, turned his head around.

"It's just a minor cut, why bother with medicine!"

There was no bleeding and nothing was done. Given the quality of someone with the Eye of God, this minor injury is nothing at all.

"Alright alright……"

Jiang Bai didn't care, since it didn't hurt anyway, and as for whether it was funny or not, he couldn't see it for himself.

Whatever!

Getting a beating is better than being cremated.

But next time I should be more careful and think before I speak.

Otherwise, next time Walnut won't hit so lightly...

Chapter 56 Young people lack martial ethics

After resting for more than ten minutes, the little ghost silently returned to Hu Tao's body. Not long after, the Thunder and Lightning True Lord also came out of the thatched hut.

"I've finished regulating my breathing. Follow me." He closed his eyes, then slowly opened them, his eyes gleaming with an intense light that was impossible to look directly at.

All four of them followed.

For Wu Cong and A Ling, it had been quite a long time since they had seen the True Lord display any divine signs.

Such a breathtaking scene is definitely not to be missed.

Jiang Bai was very curious about what Hu Tao's little ghost had discovered, but unfortunately he couldn't communicate directly with the little ghost. He looked at Hu Tao, who just blinked and smiled mysteriously.

Jiang Bai had no choice but to watch the old man's performance.

The old man came to a cliff face, which faced the mountain path and was about three meters high. No grass or trees grew on it.

"Alright!"

He took a deep breath and started walking.

A breeze blew from all directions, stirring his clothes and hair.

The four of them focused intently, holding their breath, their eyes filled with anticipation, curiosity, and nervousness as they awaited what would happen next.

But the old man's sleeves fluttered, yet his body remained still. The rock wall seemed to be shattered by something, emitting a loud explosion and sending fragments of rock flying everywhere.

A moment later, the smoke and dust dissipated, and the once intact rock wall cracked open, leaving a dent in the center that looked like it had been punched by a fist.

When Zhenjun's two disciples saw this scene again, they clapped excitedly.

Wu Cong was particularly excited, hoping that one day his martial arts skills could reach such a level.

But at the same time, he was also feeling a bit down.

With his dull-witted talent, he probably will never reach that level in his entire life!

Jiang Bai's mouth was slightly open, looking completely bewildered.

Did the old man throw a punch? How come he didn't see it?

Or is it that his understanding is too low, and he can't see anything?

Looking at Hu Tao again, she was already resting her chin on her hand, revealing a thoughtful expression.

The old man turned around, stroked his beard, and looked at the two of them:

"What do you two young friends think of my move?"

"How did they do that?" Jiang Bai asked, then curiously approached the cliff face, wanting to see if there was anything fishy going on.

The stone wall was indeed a hard stone wall, and he was able to blast out such a hole. What surprised him was the old man's technique.

He had looked very carefully; the old man's fist hadn't moved at all.

So it wasn't that the old man's punch was too fast for the naked eye to see, but rather that he used other methods to shatter the rock wall.

"This was naturally caused by my own fist." The old man looked up, his expression proud.

Hu Tao pulled Jiang Bai in front of her and pointed at him, saying, "True Lord, why don't you have a match with him? If you win, we will become your disciples."

"Huh?" Jiang Bai was bewildered, forced to participate in the competition.

This is not a good idea. What if we hurt the elderly person?

He only has one piece of Mora on him!

“This…” The old man looked Jiang Bai up and down.

This young man looks skinny and weak, walks with a limp, and has bruises all over his face. He should be easy to deal with.

However, this is not necessarily true for those with divine vision.

To be on the safe side, it would be better for him not to accept the suggestion.

"No, my fist technique is too powerful; he can't withstand it." He shook his head, as if to say, "It's not that I don't want to fight, but that you're not up to the task."

"No, no! I don't have any other skills, I'm just tough and can take a beating!" Jiang Bai patted his chest and stood in front of the old man.

Since the leader has spoken, he, as the underling, naturally cannot stand still.

At worst, he can just put on a shield and stand there and let the old man hit him. If the old man's hand hurts or something, that's none of his business.

"I'm sure you two elder brothers would also like to witness a spectacular battle!" Seeing that the old man didn't want to perform anymore, Hu Tao encouraged his two apprentices.

They are strangers, so we can simply not accept them as disciples. But we can't let those who have already become disciples down!

Upon hearing Hu Tao's words, A Ling and Wu Cong were indeed somewhat moved and looked at Zhenjun expectantly.

This Thunderbolt God was indeed in a rather awkward position at this point.

If he keeps holding back from fighting, it will inevitably affect his image in the eyes of his two disciples.

But if it comes to a fight, and you can't win, then it's not just a matter of affecting your image.

He stroked the talisman in his sleeve, hesitating in his heart.

After much hesitation, he finally made up his mind.

If he loses, he can just run away. He can change his location, his identity, and his story. Who can find him then?

"Fighting is fine, but I must agree to three rules."

"What are the three rules we'll agree on?"

The old man held up one finger. "First, my fist technique is too powerful; I can only use one-tenth of my strength."

"Secondly, I will only demonstrate my fist techniques, not my immortal power, and you, little brother, cannot use your elemental power either."

Jiang Bai looked at Hu Tao.

What if we can't use elemental power and get beaten up badly?

Hu Tao gave him a reassuring look, and he could only nod.

"Third, let's have a friendly exchange, but stop when we've reached a point."

"no problem!"

Jiang Bai rubbed his hands together, getting ready to warm up.

Suddenly, his limp stopped, his back straightened, and even the bruises on his face faded a bit.

Thunderbolt Lord had a bad feeling, but the die was cast.

"Let's begin!" Hu Tao enthusiastically took on the role of referee, making room for the two of them.

A wind came from the valley, and a mournful sound echoed through it.

Based on the idea that this old man was a formidable figure, and in order not to be beaten too badly, Jiang Bai chose to strike first.

He threw a punch at the old man, expecting the Thunderclap True Lord to dodge with his super-fast movement, but to his surprise, his punch actually hit him squarely!

The old man let out a muffled groan and was sent flying a meter away, rolling twice on the ground.

"!!!" Jiang Bai's scalp immediately tingled!

No no no no!

I thought you were a celestial being, but it turns out you were just pretending!

Even though he didn't use much force because he was just trying it out, the force he used was enough to make a difference to this elderly man!

Ruined!

He only had one Mora in his pocket. Even if he were sold, he couldn't afford the medical bills!

Ah Ling and Wu Cong were stunned by what they saw!

How could their master, Thunderclap and Lightning True Lord, be so easily defeated?!

It's an illusion, it must be an illusion!

The only one who seemed calm was Hu Tao, who crossed her arms, clearly in control of everything.

The old man's straw hat was knocked off, but he was unharmed. He flipped over and jumped up from the ground, pointing at Jiang Bai and cursing:

"Young people have no sportsmanship! They ambushed a 69-year-old man like me!"

Chapter 57 It's His Heart That's Aching

If he hadn't had a protective talisman, that punch might have seriously injured him!

"Huh?" Jiang Bai was confused. Didn't they say "start"?

But the old man is breathing so strongly, he doesn't seem to be in any danger.

Jiang Bai felt a little relieved and cautiously asked, "Shall we do it again?"

"Come on, come on!"

The old man was clearly enraged as well, and activated the talisman in his palm, sending an invisible attack toward Jiang Bai.

Jiang Bai dodged and threw a punch, sending the old man flying again.

The old man lay on the ground, covered in dust and grass clippings, glaring at Jiang Bai with a face full of resentment.

"Old man, would you like to come again?" Hu Tao approached him with a grin, looking down at him from a 180-degree angle. Her words were like sharp blades, showing no mercy.

"However, I think if you come again, the flyer for the Hall of Rebirth that I gave you will probably come in handy immediately."

"You...you're bullying an old man!" The old man was completely unaware that these two had seen through his trick.

Her face flushed red and then turned pale, a mixture of shame and anger.
