Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 62 Wu Yuan's Attention

The battle between Lin Chen and Fu Ang attracted the attention of many warriors at the scene.

The battles everywhere are nothing here.

But if it was someone at the same level who defeated a disciple from Zhenyue Martial Arts School, and was a disciple who had practiced the Iron Bone Skill to mastery level, then that would be enough to attract attention.

"When did Qingfeng Martial Arts School produce such a powerful disciple?"

"Looking at his palm technique, it is very likely that he has already mastered the Qingfeng Palm. He should not be a new student."

"Well, there is a high possibility that he is an old student. If he is an old student, then it is hard to guess. He can be placed in the previous class or the class before that. There are many such disciples in Qingfeng Martial Arts School."

In the audience, many people began to speculate about Lin Chen's identity, but just like before, these onlookers did not think that Lin Chen would be a student of the new class.

In another corner, two figures were talking in low voices.

"Brother Lu, which brother from our martial arts school do you think is this person on the stage?"

"It should be a senior brother from the previous class. There are currently three people in our class who have achieved enlightenment. The other two junior brothers haven't even mastered the Qingfeng Palm, which is obviously not in line with the requirements."

Lu Shuyu shook his head. He didn’t think that the senior brother on the stage was from the same class as him.

The four senior brothers who were stronger than him had already opened the fifth and sixth acupoints, so it was obvious that their realms were not up to par. The two junior brothers who were up to par were not as proficient in the Qingfeng Palm as him.

Below the third arena, there were also several masked warriors who noticed the situation on Lin Chen's side.

"This person's Qingfeng Palm should be close to minor success, but unfortunately... he is an old student."

"Brother Qi, do you mean that you hope the other party is a new student in our class?"

"Qingfeng Palm is a minor accomplishment. It's fun to meet an opponent like this. Otherwise, the duel at the beginning of next month will be too boring."

"Brother Qi, are you going to break through the Seven Apertures?"

When the man next to him heard what his senior brother said, his eyes were filled with shock.

Everyone is trying hard to get a good result in the martial arts competition at the beginning of next month, but Senior Brother Qi said it was "boring". There is only one possibility, that Senior Brother Qi should have broken through the Seven Apertures.

Before the competition at the beginning of the month, the instructor had speculated that a few students might be able to reach the seventh level, which meant they would surely be in the top ten. However, until now, only one student among the eight martial arts schools had reached the seventh level.

Jiang Qing from Jingshui Martial Arts School!
Qi Shan smiled slightly and did not answer.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to compete with other warriors in the martial arts arena, he would have been able to enter the Seven Apertures long ago.

He didn't eat much rare bird meat because he wanted to compete with those warriors with extremely high proficiency in martial arts on the third arena when he reached the Six Apertures stage to improve his own strength.

……

……

After defeating Fu Ang, several masked martial arts students came on stage. Unfortunately, these students were not proficient in the skills, and the strongest one had only reached the level of mastery.

Lin Chen was somewhat disappointed. The opponent he was expecting was not these martial arts school students, but martial artists who had already left the martial arts school and had extremely high proficiency in martial arts.

Perhaps, I can only meet these people at the end of the month.

Instead of going up to the next arena, Lin Chen looked towards the third arena, which was an arena that only warriors who had opened up the fifth and sixth acupoints could enter.

At this moment, there were two masked men fighting on the ring. They were from the Iron Blood Martial Arts School and the Mantis Martial Arts School, and both of them were Six-Aperture Warriors.

However, the battle started quickly and ended quickly.

The man from the Mantis Martial Arts School was defeated before he could even take three moves.

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. It was not that the man from Mantis Martial Arts School was too weak, but that the man from Iron Blood Martial Arts School was very strong.

The opponent's punch was like a cannon, so powerful that Lin Chen estimated that even if someone from the Zhenyue Martial Arts School went up to him, he might not be able to withstand it.

"This person's identity is clear. He is Fei Hong from the Iron Blood Martial Arts School, the young master of Fei Family Manor. He is the only one in the Iron Blood Martial Arts School who has opened the Six Apertures and has mastered the Iron Collapse Fist."

"The cost of mastering the Iron Collapse Fist is probably no less than five hundred taels."

"He is the young master of Feijia Manor. His father was also a ninth-rank warrior, but his vitality has declined now. Fei Hong's brother also won first place in the last year-end martial arts competition."

"We have worked hard on the road of martial arts for more than ten years, but we are just the starting point for others."

"Brother, think more open-mindedly. What kind of family background do we have? What kind of family background do they have? Why do you think you can surpass the efforts of three generations of the Fei family? Is your father a qualified warrior? Does your grandfather run the largest butcher stall in our county?"

Three questions in a row, collective silence!

Among the warriors watching, some were jealous, some sighed quietly, and some analyzed the situation rationally.

After hearing the last rational analysis from the warrior, Lin Chen agreed with the words. Why should one generation want to surpass the efforts of three generations?

Normally, for a warrior like himself who came from the village, his fate would have changed when he became enlightened. He could make money to train the next generation, giving them the opportunity to reach the realm of internal training, and then train the next generation.

It is already considered good if a family can prosper after three generations.

After all, there are only a few geniuses who rise in a generation.

Fei Hong stood on the third stage. No martial arts student was willing to go up. No one could withstand the master-level Iron Collapse Fist.

Lin Chen wanted to give it a try, but unfortunately he had only opened four orifices and was not qualified to enter the arena.

"Brother Qi, do you want to go up?"

"Among the new disciples of the martial arts school, Fei Hong is already invincible in the Six Apertures. Even if I go up to him, I will not be his opponent. However, Fei Hong broke through the Six Apertures for less than seven days, and he may not be able to reach the Seven Apertures at the beginning of next month. With the difference in realm, I can suppress him." Qi Shan shook his head slightly. His junior brother really has no foresight. Fei Hong is obviously invincible in the Six Apertures. Am I going up to him and bring shame upon myself?

Seeing that no one came on stage, Fei Hong took off his mask and shook his head in disappointment. His meaning was obvious: the warriors in the audience disappointed him greatly.

There were warriors in the audience who were capable of defeating Fei Hong. Those who had practiced for several years or even longer, and those who had mastered the Six Apertures martial arts, were confident that they could defeat Fei Hong.

But there is no need for this, as they are still wary of the Fei Family Village behind Fei Hong.

Seeing Fei Hong leaving the ring, Lin Chen knew that there would be no exciting fights to watch next, so he prepared to leave immediately.

"Wait a minute, little brother."

Just as Lin Chen turned to leave, he found that the referee had come to his side without him knowing when.

Lin Chen stopped and didn't understand why the referee called him.

"Young man, what is your purpose in joining the ring?" the referee asked with a smile.

"Senior, don't you understand what I am saying?"

"There are three main purposes for those who participate in the arena. The first is to fight with others and improve their combat abilities. The second is to win the arena rewards. The third is to enjoy the satisfaction of defeating others. But I don't think you are the third type."

Enjoy the satisfaction of defeating others?
Lin Chen glanced at the referee and realized that the referee was being euphemistic. The so-called enjoyment of victory was just bullying the weak ones.

Those martial artists who graduated from martial arts schools, or have never entered a martial arts school, will go to the first and second arenas to fight, and many of them intend to bully the students of the martial arts schools.

It was just like when Master Kong led the new students to fight against the old students. The mentality of the old students who participated in the battle was the same.

Take advantage of your age advantage in martial arts training and bully these potential fighters first, otherwise you will miss this opportunity when they grow up.

Lin Chen answered truthfully: "Junior wants to improve his combat ability."

"If you want to improve your strength, you need a suitable opponent. I see that your Qingfeng Palm should have reached a minor level of success."

"Yeah." Lin Chen nodded without denying.

"There are not many martial artists who have awakened their minds and have achieved some success in martial arts. There are only about thirty of them in the whole Poyang County. It is not easy to meet one." Yan He'an replied with a smile.

Four orifices, small success!
These two limiting conditions screen out many warriors, and awakened warriors do not come to the Martial Garden every day.

Most warriors below ten orifices are busy making money and only come to the Martial Garden in their spare time.

"What do you mean, senior?"

"For your situation, Wuyuan has a solution. It is to add prizes to the ring. If you are willing, you can choose to give the prize. The winner can take the prize. Wuyuan will notify the qualified warriors. If those warriors are interested, they will come to fight with you on the ring."

After listening to Yan Hean's explanation, Lin Chen understood a little. It just meant that he had to pay.

The warriors in Poyang County were too busy to fight with him, but if he paid, they would be interested.

As long as you defeat yourself, you can take the prize.

If I lose, there is no loss. I can just consider it as a sparring partner.

"What's the winning method?"

"For a warrior with four orifices, five taels of silver is usually enough. If you are confident in yourself, you can give more to attract more warriors to come and fight."

Five taels of silver?

The corner of Lin Chen's mouth twitched. Isn't this going to cost him his life?

"The Wuyuan has a rule that all warriors who initiate a betting challenge for the first time can be given money by the Wuyuan, but the warrior who applies must inform the Wuyuan of his personal information."

The referee looked at Lin Chen with a smile, and Lin Chen fell into deep thought.

He originally received his ID card from Wu Yuan, but Wu Yuan had never registered his information, so Junior Brother Zhao said that Wu Yuan didn't care about warriors like them.

Thinking of what Master Zeng said about the rules for geniuses, Lin Chen had a guess in his mind. The Wu Garden was just like the Wu Zheng Si. It's not that they didn't care, but that ordinary warriors would not be taken seriously by them.

Only truly talented warriors can attract their attention.

The fact that the senior in front of him called out to him meant that he must have attracted Wu Yuan's attention.

But what kind of organization is Wuyuan?

Would it be risky for me to reveal all my information to Wu Yuan?
Defenses can not do without!
What if the purpose behind Wu Yuan is to discover talented warriors and then destroy them in secret?
Don't talk about paranoia or anything like that.

Although this possibility is very small, we must still be on guard.

No one has suffered before because they were not talented enough.

You have a destiny and a title, and what if you can eventually reach other people's standards?

"Little brother, the identities of all warriors in Wuyuan will be kept confidential. Without the warrior's consent, even if the director of the Wuzheng Institute and the county lord come in person, don't know the warrior's true identity."

Lin Chen pondered for a moment and finally decided to accept it.

He figured it out. If Wu Yuan really had feelings for the talented warrior, could he hide it?
I showed myself in the martial arts competition. As the Wuzheng Institute is responsible for educating martial artists, they are eager to use me as a positive example for publicity, so Wuyuan will still know about it.

It's right to be on guard against others, but you can't be afraid of the consequences.

"Thank you, senior. I am willing to initiate the challenge, but I have a request. Can we hold the competition in the evening?"
