Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 102 Why Didn’t Junior Brother Jiang Come?
Cooking is indeed troublesome. Even a simple meal takes more than half an hour.

Jiang Cheng finished eating quickly, without even having time to clean up the dishes, and started practicing boxing again.

In fact, he felt a little tired. After all, he had been sparring with Senior Brother Zeng for the whole morning and practicing boxing alone in the afternoon.

But when I saw the prompt messages on the panel, I felt full of energy.

However, the arms, which were used the most, were much less tired than the rest of the body because of the application of black jade ointment.

But before long, something went wrong.

Originally, after completing a set of boxing techniques, the experience value can be increased by 1 point.

Now, it's only 0.9 points.

Jiang Cheng stood there in a daze for a moment.

After thinking for a while, I suddenly understood.

Although the effect of the black jade paste can last for three days, to be frank, the secret medicine is also a medicine, and its effect will gradually weaken with the passage of time.

When you first use it, the effect is definitely the best, and the improvement speed is ten times the speed of practicing without the secret medicine. But as a few hours go by, it becomes nine times, eight times, seven times... In the last few hours, there may only be an additional improvement of a few tenths of a time.

"This makes us have to hurry up!"

Jiang Cheng made up his mind.

I might as well not sleep tonight. I must make use of this time when the secret medicine can take the greatest effect.

You don't have to go to the boxing gym tomorrow morning. Now that you have obtained the secret weapon, there is actually no need to go for the next ten days or so.

No matter how well you practice using the short stick, if you meet someone who practices secret martial arts, the difference in strength and speed between the two sides will be obvious, just like what happened to the gym owner.

The important thing is to practice the secret martial arts.

But Grandma and Sister Chen still live in Senior Sister Bai’s house, so she still has to go there from time to time to contact the latter. Once the Iron Fist Gang arrives and the people from the Wild Wolf Gang leave completely, she can take them back.

It is best to let them live in the outer suburbs, however, it is not good to take advantage of them all the time.

And in the afternoon...

Jiang Cheng was a little conflicted.

A bottle of secret medicine costs one thousand yuan, and you can earn almost half of it back by setting up a stall yourself.

But by setting up the stall, half a day’s worth of the secret medicine’s effects were wasted.

“I still don’t make enough money.”

Jiang Cheng shook his head.

If you earn thousands or even tens of thousands a day, there's no need to worry about it so much.

One night passed.

Jiang Cheng was lying on the bed and suddenly opened his eyes.

He originally wanted to practice all night, but at two o'clock in the morning, he couldn't hold on any longer, so he simply washed up and fell asleep.

I glanced at the clock and it was already past eight in the morning.

In an instant, his expression changed.

We have to hurry up and practice boxing!
……

Flying Eagle Boxing Gym.

Lin Quanliang arrived early, thinking about how to greet Jiang Cheng when he came over.

Should I still call you Junior Brother Jiang?
But yesterday Jiang Cheng followed Senior Brother Zeng to the third floor.

Perhaps it won’t be long before he will be accepted as a disciple.

If I still call him Junior Brother Jiang, wouldn’t that be a bit rude?

But time passed little by little, Sun Xiaoli and others arrived, but Jiang Cheng did not show up.

Not only him, several other people also began to wonder.

In the past two weeks, even if Jiang Cheng was not the first member to arrive on the second floor, he was at least in the top three. How come it’s almost nine o’clock today and he hasn’t shown up yet?
Are you sick?

Or is it an emergency and you can’t come to the gym temporarily?

Or, has he already gone to the third floor? Is he being taught real kung fu by the owner?

When they thought of this, they felt as if ants were crawling on their bodies and they felt extremely itchy.

Just at this moment, footsteps were heard and Zhao Xiangyu walked down from the third floor.

He searched among the people, but didn't see Jiang Cheng, and he couldn't believe it.

"Senior Brother Zhao!" "Senior Brother Zhao!"

Several people gathered around immediately.

"Senior Brother Zhao, I have a question for you. Please answer me." Sun Xiaoli asked with a smile.

Zhao Xiangyu smiled when he heard this and said, "If you have any questions, just ask. As long as I know, I will tell you."

"That's what you said, Senior Brother Zhao."

Sun Xiaoli looked at the others, then lowered her voice and asked, "Junior Brother Jiang Cheng, will the Master accept you as his disciple?"

"what?"

Zhao Xiangyu was stunned, and then a strange look appeared on his face.

"?"

Several people looked at each other.

"Brother Zhao, you didn't know?" Lin Quanliang asked in surprise, "Just yesterday at noon, Brother Zeng took Brother Jiang up to the third floor."

"Yes, yes, we saw it with our own eyes. Junior Brother Jiang even greeted us."

"Brother Zhao, is Brother Jiang going to become our brother soon? He used to come early in the morning, but he hasn't shown up yet today. Is he already on the third floor?"

"What are you talking about?"

Zhao Xiangyu reacted and looked at himself in confusion.

"I also have something I want to talk to Junior Brother Jiang about, and I wanted to ask you if he has come yet."

"what?"

Several people looked at each other.

Did Junior Brother Jiang really not come?

"Senior Brother Zhao, didn't the owner of the hall accept Junior Brother Jiang as his disciple?" someone asked in a low voice.

"Probably not. I haven't received any such news."

Zhao Xiangyu shook his head. "Brother Zeng did take Brother Jiang to see the master yesterday, but the master had no intention of accepting him as a disciple. You guys are overthinking it."

Not only that, yesterday afternoon, Senior Brother Zeng found him and told him that starting from next month, Junior Brother Jiang would not be allowed to renew his membership and continue to maintain his senior membership status in the boxing gym.

He also asked why, but Senior Brother Zeng just shook his head and said nothing.

So he was also struggling with how to bring this up to Jiang Cheng.

"Is that so?"

"Are we overthinking it?"

"This this……"

Lin Quanliang and his companions all felt extremely complicated for a moment.

Shock, doubt, confusion, regret, relief, etc.

"Okay, everyone go back to practice."

Zhao Xiangyu comforted him, "The master has very high standards for disciples. Junior Brother Jiang's stick skills are indeed very good, but we don't just look at stick skills when accepting disciples. We also have to look at the physique, comprehension, character, etc. Even if he passes all the requirements, we still have to observe him for a while before we can make a final decision."

When a few people heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little hope.

"So, Senior Brother Zhao, are we in the observation period?"

"This one……"

Zhao Xiangyu smiled bitterly, "Then you have to ask the owner."

Several people shrank their necks and decided to just forget it.

They had seen the man's appearance before. He was very imposing and people were afraid to approach him casually.

"It seems that Junior Brother Jiang was hit hard by what happened yesterday, so he was late this morning? Or will he not be here all day today?"

Zhao Xiangyu looked at the stairs and sighed softly.

I can only wait two days, and when Junior Brother Jiang comes to the gym, I can tell him the news.

I wonder how he will react when he hears the news.

He felt that Junior Brother Jiang was a good person and they might become good friends if they spent more time together, but he couldn't disobey the master's orders.
