With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 45 Yong'an Martial Arts Master Kai Dong

Xue Na watched Meng Chuan eat, her face beaming with joy. She loved watching Meng Chuan wolf down his food.

"Chuan'er, eat slowly so you don't choke. Nobody's going to take it from you."

"Auntie's cooking is so delicious."

Meng Chuan swept the table clean and was about to get up to wash the dishes when Xue Na stopped him:

"I'll go brush it up. Chuan'er, you've worked hard practicing martial arts. Go sit down and rest."

Seeing his aunt's firm attitude, Meng Chuan had no choice but to give up.

Sitting on the sofa, peeling an orange, Meng Chuan silently sensed the changes in his internal energy and blood.

Because it is impossible to see inwards, the concentration of Qi and blood can only be judged through external manifestations.

He took out two old walnuts that his uncle had been playing with for several years from under the table, held them in one hand, turned them slightly in his palm, and then exerted force, and the two old walnuts cracked with a snap.

"My strength has indeed increased significantly, which is one of the signs of increased blood and qi concentration."

Before I perfected the Cannon Fist technique, there was absolutely no way I could crush two old, patina-covered walnuts with one hand, but it seems I've messed up."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Meng Chuan threw the broken walnuts into the trash can, got up, walked to the door, and asked:

"Which one?"

"Open the door, your older sister is back!"

It turned out to be my cousin coming back.

Meng Chuan recalled that the other party had said two days ago that they would not be back until the evening of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, but unexpectedly they arrived home very early this morning.

While thinking about it, my hands didn't stop moving.

He opened the door for his cousin, then turned to Xue Na, who was washing dishes in the kitchen:

"Auntie, my cousin is back!"

Xue Na was so happy that she didn't even bother to wipe her hands. She just wiped them on her apron a few times and then hurriedly ran out.
"My daughter is back?"

When the door opened, besides Meng Yiyi, there was a man wearing a cotton jacket following behind her.

The two were holding hands, and Meng Chuan could tell their relationship at a glance.

Meng Yiyi pulled her hand back and looked into the house while changing her shoes.

Then he introduced Meng Chuan and Xue Na:
"Mom, I'm home! Where's Dad? And this guy is Yu Kaidong, he's my high school classmate, now a freshman at Wuhan University in Yong'an, and he's my boyfriend!"

Yu Kaidong was carrying expensive liquor, cigarettes, and cosmetics, which Meng Chuan took and placed next to the sofa.

Xue Na didn't realize it at first; Meng Yiyi had never told her that she had a boyfriend.

After looking around for a while, he finally smiled broadly upon hearing that it was Yong'an Martial Arts University:

"Okay, come in and sit down."

Yong'an Martial Arts University is a top-tier martial arts university in Yong'an City. Although it is far inferior to the top-tier martial arts universities, it is still not an option for ordinary people.

Meng Yiyi pulled her boyfriend to sit on the sofa, pouting and pretending to be angry, and said:
“I told you all, but none of you came to pick me up. Xianyang Airport is so far from Yong'an, so Kaidong had to drive to the airport early in the morning to pick me up.”

Seeing her daughter complaining, Xue Na comforted her repeatedly:
“Your dad is on duty at the bureau today, and I can’t drive.”

Seeing that her daughter was no longer angry, Xue Na changed the subject and started investigating her daughter's boyfriend's household registration.

Meng Chuan, who was listening from the side, was almost unable to hold back his laughter.

His aunt's mouth was like a machine gun, firing off one question after another, leaving Yu Kaidong sweating profusely.

"Yes, Auntie, I'm 20 this year. I started school a little late."

The Great Chu Kingdom is now threatened by the Heavenly Demon, and the current national policy is to encourage childbirth.

In addition, the popularity of martial arts has led to improvements in people's physical fitness.

Therefore, the laws of the Great Chu state that anyone who has reached the age of 18 can register for marriage.

Yu Kaidong sat on the sofa and continued with the rapid-fire Q&A:

"There are four people in my family, and I..." Meng Chuan felt too bored and was about to go back to his room to practice his stance, but his sister called him back as soon as he stood up:

"Little brother, don't go, sit down first."

Seeing that her boyfriend was struggling to cope, Meng Yiyi decided to use a diversionary tactic to attack Zhao.

"Kaitong, he's the one I often mention to you. I have a younger brother who loves martial arts."
His name is Meng Chuan, and he's a first-year high school student. If you have time, could you teach him a lesson?

After saying that, Meng Yiyi winked mischievously. The two understood each other perfectly, and Yu Kaidong instantly grasped her meaning.

"Ahem, I must have time, right, Xiao Meng? I'll teach you a couple of tricks right now."

Seeing this, Xue Na chimed in:
"Oh right, good idea. Chuan'er, haven't you always wanted to apply to Yong'an Martial Arts University? It's a good opportunity to have your brother Kai Dong talk to you about it."

Xue Na's understanding of Meng Chuan was still stuck in the past; he was no longer the same person she knew.

Meng Chuan's target had long since changed to Beilian University. With his current Qi and Blood strength of at least eight points, he could enter Yong'an Martial Arts University with his eyes closed.

Xue Na continued speaking:
"Kaitong, my son Xiaomeng is still in his first year of high school. Please give him some guidance."

When mentioning Wuhan University in Yong'an, Yu Kaidong said with a hint of pride:
"Xiao Meng, you also want to go to our school? Then you'll have to start working hard now."

I have average physical attributes, and I only got into Yong'an Martial Arts University after training hard through the coldest and hottest winters. It's not easy to get into Yong'an Martial Arts University.

It was Meng Chuan's cousin's boyfriend's first time visiting, and not wanting to embarrass him, he could only nod in agreement.

Seeing that Meng Chuan wasn't very talkative, and to avoid Meng Yiyi's mother continuing to investigate the household registration, Yu Kaidong said to Meng Chuan again:

"If you want to improve your boxing skills, it's best to practice in real combat. Xiao Meng, let's go downstairs and practice?"

Meng Chuan quite agreed with what the other party said. When he sparred with Coach Liu Ru, his progress was indeed very fast.

Although the Cannon Fist skill is already perfected, you can still increase its proficiency towards breaking the limit.

Moreover, we haven't even mastered the basics yet, so practicing with the other person is still worthwhile.

"Okay, let's go then."

Today was her daughter's boyfriend's first visit, so Xue Na decided to cook a lavish lunch and didn't go downstairs to join the festivities.

The three found an open space, and Meng Yiyi smiled sweetly, revealing her tiger teeth, urging the other two to start quickly.

She lacked natural talent and aptitude, so she had no choice but to abandon martial arts and pursue a literary career.

However, his love for martial arts has not diminished at all. He watches martial arts competitions whenever he has free time, and his favorite martial arts star is [Hunjiang Bailong · Zheng Zhiyu].

She reminded:

"Be gentle with my brother, don't let him get hurt."

Yu Kaidong said with a smile:

"Don't worry, Yiyi, I know what I'm doing."

The two walked to the middle of the open space, and Yu Kaidong crossed his arms and shouted to Meng Chuan:

"Come on, Xiao Meng, go all out and attack me. I'll give you some pointers."

That's how his teachers taught him at school, and today he's decided to put that knowledge into practice.

How much Qi and blood do you have?

Seeing how confident the other party was, and considering that Yu Kaidong was already a freshman in college, Meng Chuan was a little unsure of how to handle the situation.

Yu Kaidong proudly said:

"7.89, about to break 4!"

"Let me tell you something else. If you want to go to Yong'an Martial Arts University in the future, you need to meet three conditions."

"The first point is that you need to reach the third level of Qi and Blood, and it's best to have at least six points of Qi and Blood for safety."
Because the number of qualified applicants each year exceeds the final number of admissions by more than double, there is an additional practical assessment to select the best candidates.

"The second and third points are requirements for martial arts: mastery of third-rate boxing techniques and proficiency in body movements."

"These conditions aren't easy to meet. Come on, Xiao Meng, let me give you some pointers."
If you practice according to my instructions today, I guarantee you'll achieve twice the results with half the effort.
