Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 115 I, Lin Chen, am willing to fight for Lord Su! (Subscribe)
The courtyard door opens.

Tai Rubai immediately shifted his gaze from the ants on the ground to the door.

While standing at the door, he had already looked at the ants crawling on the ground countless times. If he continued to look, he would probably be able to tell the male and female ones.

Li Ang and Li Qi, father and daughter, felt embarrassed when they saw him, and he also felt embarrassed when he saw them.

The ninth-rank warrior is stronger than him, but as the owner of Zhenyue Martial Arts School, the school has produced entry-rank warriors before, so it is not uncommon.

"Let's go."

Li Yueshan walked out of the yard, glanced at his son and granddaughter, and spoke lightly.

Li An was stunned. He left now. His father didn't allow him to see the boy?

Li Qi was also confused. Didn’t her grandfather tell her to apologize to the young man?
Tai Rubai was also surprised. Why was it Lord Li who opened the door, and Lin Chen didn't come out to see him off?
Li Yueshan got on the horse directly, looked at Li An and his daughter who were still in a daze, and raised his white eyebrows: "Get on the horse and go back."

Although he was very confused, Li An did not dare to disobey his father. After giving his daughter a look, he mounted his horse and left.

Tai Rubai watched the three Li family members leave, then turned around and looked at Lin Chen who was walking to the door: "Lin Chen, what's going on?"

Clearly, before he left the yard, the old man and the young were chatting happily together. How did it become like this?

Lin Chen said helplessly: "Master Tai, Lord Li and I did not have an argument. Lord Li gave me a lot of advice on the road of martial arts. I am really grateful to Lord Li. It was Lord Li who did not allow me to go out to see him off."

"Master Li didn't allow you to send it?"

Tai Rubai was puzzled, but since it was Lord Li who arranged it, there must be a deeper meaning behind it, so he did not try to speculate too much.

"Have a good rest. When we return to the county tomorrow, I will report the good news to Lord Su."

……

……

Poyang County Wuzheng Office.

"Zhang Wangshan is going too far!"

Su Lingchuan slapped the armrest of the chair heavily, and the armrest broke instantly into powder and fell to the ground like quicksand.

"Sir, why are you so angry?"

The confidants around him were a little confused. The Lord went to the Military Administration Department to report on his work. What happened?

"I went to the Military Affairs Department today to report on my work and discuss the upcoming county competition. Who would have thought that Zhang Wangshan would actually suggest that it is just a competition between a group of students in the Awakening Realm. We don't need to take it too seriously. We can choose to fight one against many, as long as the students are willing."

Upon hearing this, the confidant frowned and said, "But over in Qianshan County, are there any very strong students in this session?"

"There are two students in Qianshan County who have already opened their fifteen orifices. Zhang Wangshan is counting on these two students to win the county fight."

Fifteen orifices?
The confidant's expression was also somewhat unpleasant: "Did the Master agree?"

"I didn't know about this before, and since others agreed, I agreed."

Speaking of this, Su Lingchuan was extremely angry. He was sure that Zhang Wangshan must have told colleagues from several other counties before that these people kept saying that the Awakening Realm was really nothing, and that except for a few top students, other students were not worthy of attention.

After hearing these words of agreement, he couldn't help but agreed.

It was only after confirming the method of the county fight that Zhang Wangshan said that there were two students in Qianshan County who had opened up fifteen points.

"Your Excellency shouldn't have agreed to that."

The confidant felt a little helpless. The lord was good in other aspects except that he was easily provoked, especially when it came to face matters.

"What about the county competition reward?"

"The director has decided that the first place winner can enter the Class C treasure house of the Military Affairs Department and choose a treasure."

"A Class C treasure house. It seems that the director has high hopes for this class of students."

The confidant was amazed. The treasures in the Class C treasury would make even a martial artist with strong internal organs tempted.

A martial arts instructor who works for five years without making any mistakes will accumulate enough contribution points to enter the Class C treasury once.

However, considering that the first place in the two counties definitely has the potential to be promoted, the director's arrangement is reasonable.

"The second place winner will enter the D-level treasury, and the third place winner will receive 1,000 taels of silver."

After Su Lingchuan finished speaking, he snorted, "Zhang Wangshan still wants Poyang County to give him another reward. That's a nice thought. I have decided that Poyang County will give him 200 taels of silver for this competition."

The confidant's mouth twitched. Although he knew that the adults were joking in anger, if Poyang County really only took out 200 taels of silver, it would become a joke for other counties in Raozhou Prefecture, but he still had to persuade them: "Think twice, my Lord."

"I..."

Outside the lobby, footsteps were heard. Su Lingchuan stopped talking and his confidant retreated behind the screen.

"Master Su, good news!"

Tai Rubai walked very fast and arrived at the lobby door in the blink of an eye. His voice came before he arrived.

"Good news, what good news? Could it be that Lin Chen has broken through to the eleventh orifice?"

Su Lingchuan's eyes lit up, but when he thought that there were two students in Yanshan County who had already attained the fifteenth level of enlightenment, the light dimmed.

Even if Lin Chen had opened eleven acupoints, it would be impossible for him to fight against four acupoints.

"Double happiness! Lin Chen has already opened eleven acupoints, and this time he has cultivated the Iron Bone Skill to perfection!" Bang!
Su Lingchuan slapped the armrest again, and the armrest on the other side of the chair turned into powder and scattered to the ground again.

Lin Chen has opened eleven acupoints and completed the Iron Bone Skill. If he takes the two acupoint-opening pills that he was rewarded with, he will have thirteen acupoints. Even if he faces the two students from Qianshan County, he will be able to fight.

inappropriate!

While excited, Su Lingchuan shook his head again and rejected the idea of letting Lin Chen take the Tongqiao Pill.

Tongqiao Pills are extremely precious, and the upper limit for a warrior is three. The later you take them, the better.

After the twenty acupoints, the effect of the Tongqiao Pill was halved. Lin Chen kept these two Tongqiao Pills and took them after breaking through the eighteen acupoints, reaching twenty acupoints in one fell swoop and maximizing the use of the Tongqiao Pills.

Su Lingchuan had long-term plans for Lin Chen and did not intend to let Lin Chen take the Tongqiao Pill for this county fight.

"Well, I am very satisfied. Please tell Lin Chen to practice hard and not to worry about this county fight."

Tai Rubai watched Lord Su's expression change constantly, and was already confused. When he heard Lord Su say this, he couldn't help but guess: "Sir, is it possible that the students in Qianshan County this year are a little special?"

"Two students in Qianshan County have already opened fifteen acupoints."

"Fifteen acupoints?"

Tai Rubai also smiled bitterly. He finally understood why the adult wanted to convey these words to Lin Chen himself. The difference in realm was too great. Even if Lin Chen took the extreme path of martial arts, it would be difficult to make up for the gap in realm.

Unless Lin Chen takes the Tongqiao Pill.

But Lin Chen can take it, and the two people from Qianshan County can also take it, so the gap between the two sides remains the same.

"How did the two students from Qianshan County open fifteen acupoints?"

Su Lingchuan knew what Tai Rubai was thinking, and said calmly: "I have checked and found that these two people have a chance, and there is no cheating."

Even if it's cheating, there is a limit to the body's absorption capacity, unless you take extremely precious elixirs, but the value of such elixirs has long exceeded the reward for the county fight.

……

……

Zhenyue Martial Arts School.

Tai Rubai summoned Lin Chen and told him what Su Lingchuan had said.

Lin Chen was silent for a moment, then said, "Master, I am ready to take the Tongqiao Pill."

"Confused!"

Tai Rubai shouted at him, then thought of Lin Chen's talent, and said in a more lenient tone, "Did Lord Su ever think of letting you take the Tongqiao Pill?"

"Tongqiao Pill will open one of the twenty acupoints if taken. Don't forget your family background. Don't think that you have no shortage of money just because you won the first place in the March competition and received rewards from the Wuzheng Office and the martial arts hall. There are many places to spend money on the subsequent martial arts path. For example, if you want to achieve the state of opening acupoints within two years and practice internal organs, you need to spend three thousand taels."

Spending three thousand taels in two years is a painful expense for the powerful people in Poyang County. If the time is shortened further, it will not be something that the families in Poyang County can afford.

We can't spend all the family savings just to raise a child.

Daliang martial arts has flourished for more than two hundred years, and everyone has summed up a training timeline suitable for their respective classes.

Three years of training, followed by five to ten years of striving to achieve high status, this is the path taken by most of the powerful families in the county. A very small number of talented children pursue training within two years.

Going higher, it is the children of powerful and wealthy people at the prefecture level who will pursue it.

"Master, I know this, but if I win the county fight, I can also get a reward, which can offset the waste of Tongqiao Pills."

"If you can take it, the other party can take it too. I'm just afraid that in the end you'll lose both the wife and the army."

Lin Chen said with determination, "Lord Su has been very kind to me. I didn't even have money to buy beef in the martial arts hall. Fortunately, Lord Su came and issued a policy to motivate students. Only then did I have money to continue practicing martial arts in the academy. After that, if it weren't for the March competition scheduled by Lord Su, I wouldn't have the chance to get to where I am now with my family background. I'm afraid that when I reach the fifth level of enlightenment, I should have put off my martial arts training for money."

"Although Master Su did not do this for his disciples, I have truly enjoyed it. The battle between the two counties, the result of the competition will probably have some influence on Master Su. Taking the Tongqiao Pill and giving it a try is also a way for me to repay Master Su."

Tai Rubai's face was filled with emotion. Lin Chen's experience on the road of martial arts had long been spread throughout major martial arts halls, so Tai Rubai naturally knew about it.

Thinking about it this way, it seems to be true as Lin Chen said.

The policies promulgated by Lord Su were not for Lin Chen, but they were a timely relief for Lin Chen.

The grace of recognition.

This is not an exaggeration.

"Lin Chen, are you sure?" Tai Rubai asked again solemnly.

"Disciple has no regrets."

Lin Chen answered firmly.

Hesitation, regret?
does not exist.

His destiny is to achieve success naturally, and the more he practices, the faster he will become.

The Twelve Apertures are a watershed. Once you pass the Twelve Apertures, it’s time to gradually accelerate the process.

It is most cost-effective to take Tongqiao Pills at this time, and it can also win the favor of Lord Su.

As for the two people in Qianshan County, will they take the Tongqiao Pill?
Lin Chen glanced at the panel and saw the changes in his Qi and blood after completing the Iron Bone Skill. The corners of his mouth slightly raised. Even if those two people took it, he was confident that he could take first place.
