With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 50 Silver-Backed Golden Lion
Although the Heavenly King level is not the current ceiling of people's combat power, Zhao Yingchun is the ceiling of combat power!
The current pinnacle of human combat power in the world, [Tianqing Dasheng Zhao Linyuan], is his personal disciple, taught by him personally.

Before the establishment of the Great Chu Kingdom, martial arts were mainly practiced by Jianghu sects, gangs, and martial arts families.

Zhao Yingchun was born into a martial arts family with strict rules and regulations. Later, when the Great Chu was in turmoil, she resolutely abandoned her family identity and followed the founding emperor to conquer the world.

Ultimately, he broke down the barriers between sects and families, and spearheaded the famous Tianshan Reform.

They replaced sectarian clans with university systems, gradually combining martial arts with technology, and created a modern system of Qi and Blood Martial Arts.

From this point on, the Great Chu Kingdom officially entered the era of martial arts for all!

If it were any other Heavenly King level expert, Luo Guanyun would never have lost his composure like this.

But if someone like Zhao Yingchun, the teacher of a great sage and a founding father of the Great Chu Kingdom, were to meet Meng Chuan, most people would probably go completely crazy.

Luo Guanyun tried hard to suppress his emotions and slowly said to Meng Chuan:

"President Zhao wants to see you."

Meng Chuan tensed up instantly, unsure of what to say.

On the other end of the phone, Bai Junfeng laughed:
"Are you dumbfounded? Meng Chuan is right here, isn't he? When I heard this news, I was just as shocked as you two."

"Calm down, everyone. Chairman Zhao just wants to see who can adapt Guoyiquan based on his methods. He has no other intentions."

"Remember to come to the Wushu Association on time, at 2 PM. Make sure you remember that!"

After hanging up the phone, Luo Guanyun sat on the sofa, overwhelmed with emotion:
"Chuan'er, when we meet the chairman this afternoon, please be very polite. Just answer whatever chairman Zhao asks, and don't be nervous!"

"Okay, Master, I understand."

Meng Chuan always felt that his master seemed even more nervous than he was.

He looked like a primary school student waiting for the teacher to check his reading, fidgeting restlessly on the sofa.

After grabbing a quick bite, Luo Guanyun couldn't wait to drag Meng Chuan to the Martial Arts Association.

Upon arrival, Meng Chuan, having visited the Martial Arts Association many times before due to his previous testing of the Guoyiquan style, was very familiar with the terrain.

Bai Junfeng had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Luo Guanyun arrive with Meng Chuan, he got up to greet him.

"Old Luo is here. Chairman Zhao was delayed on the way. Let's go to receive the award and medal first. We'll wait for Chairman Zhao after we finish the other procedures."

Luo Guanyun breathed a long sigh of relief:

"Oh, that puts my mind at ease. The whole journey was nerve-wracking."

"Why are you so terrified? Chairman Zhao met with Meng Chuan. What does it have to do with you?"

Luo Guanyun glared and puffed out his beard:

"You old vulture, Meng Chuan is my apprentice, so what?"

When Meng Chuan heard his master giving someone a nickname again, he thought of the previous "bald ape" Chief Inspector Long Jiu and couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"Stop criticizing me in front of the kids. I'm not going to nag anymore. Old Luo, you wait here. I'll take Meng Chuan to receive the award."

Martial artists value efficiency and don't care about formalities.

A short while later, the two walked out of the Hall of Honor.

What caught the eye most was that Meng Chuan was holding a medal that was entirely silver with specks of gold in the center.

"The Great Chu Silver-Based Golden Lion Medal"

The medal bore four bold, small characters engraved on its reverse: "[Accepting orders in times of crisis]". Luo Guanyun reached out and accepted Meng Chuan's silver medal, his heart filled with deep emotion.
"I risked my life for seven days and seven nights at Dream Lake to earn a silver medal. You're really lucky, kid."

"Those who hold the Silver Medal will have unimpeded access to all public transportation within the Great Chu, including free tickets and no waiting in line, and free public medical care for life."

Luo Guanyun returned the medal to Meng Chuan:

"These are the most basic things, and you can also enjoy a 9% discount on all items on the Martial Arts Association's official shopping website, as well as bonus points for martial arts exams for your children or yourself within three generations."

"The specific bonus points are decided by each Wuhan University each year, but even the nine top-tier Wuhan Universities will be guaranteed at least three bonus points."

"It's all set up. Just leave it at home. These privileges will be displayed on your citizenship card. You don't need to carry the medal with you when you go out."

Upon hearing this, Meng Chuan opened the electronic citizen identity card on his mobile phone.

Overall, there are no changes, except that the person's portrait in the upper left corner of the ID card has a silver lion head pattern at the bottom that flashes when touched, instantly boosting its sophistication.

Bai Junfeng stepped forward and said with a smile:

"Xiao Meng, you need to keep up the good work. The Silver Lion Medal also includes the Golden Tiger, the Diamond Dragon, and the Supreme Pillar of the Nation Medal."

"To obtain the Silver Lion at such a young age, I hadn't even seen the Bronze Eagle at your age, haha."

Meng Chuan was also a little excited at this moment. He had been in this world for nearly 17 years and had long regarded himself as a part of the Great Chu.

Now that he has received the Silver Lion honor, his usually calm heart can no longer help but be stirred.

Bai Junfeng understood Meng Chuan's feelings at that moment, and after he calmed down, he continued:
"The 150 million yuan bonus has been deposited into your account, and the bank has been notified to expedite the process."
You should receive a text message confirming your bonus payment before tonight. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Before he could finish speaking, his assistant stepped forward and whispered a few words in his ear, causing Bai Junfeng's expression to change.

"Let's get going and leave now. Chairman Zhao is here and he's currently at [Yunyan Pavilion]."

The moment Meng Chuan was about to meet the martial arts legend, his emotions, which had just calmed down, were stirred up again.

Outside the banquet hall of Yunyan Pavilion.

Meng Chuan politely knocked on the door and waited. Then, the door was gently turned open by an invisible hand.

A middle-aged man dressed in a yin-yang symbol sat at the head of the table. His figure was as upright and steady as a pine tree. His face, as if carved by a knife and axe, showed no signs of the changes of nearly five hundred years. Only his eyes, which had been tempered by the years, were calm and profound, restrained yet powerful.

Meng Chuan looked at the man as if he were looking up to a god or Buddha.

I couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"A living legend."

"Xiao Meng, come in and sit down. I've seen your Guoyiquan (National Righteousness Boxing) technique. You're a very thoughtful kid."

Zhao Yingchun's kind yet powerful voice pulled Meng Chuan back to reality from his dream.

"This year marks the 437th anniversary of the founding of the Great Chu. Since the introduction of the National Righteousness Boxing, it has undergone thirty-four generations of optimization and improvement. Now you have added another significant contribution to it. Congratulations, Meng Chuan."

He paused for a moment, then continued:

"Do you know what? When the analysis team gave me your information, I was shocked to find that you were a minor."
At the time, I was thinking, "Isn't this ridiculous? How can a 16-year-old modify this version of the National Righteous Boxing?"

Many friends have asked me to update more, but I need to prioritize recommendations during the new book's release period.
In order for this book to have a longer run, I can only update it like this for now. I also ask all readers, even if you are just waiting for the book to finish, to check out the latest chapter and read it.
Peach will definitely be updating like crazy from now on; as long as she doesn't die from writing, she'll write as much as she can.
