With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 51 Spying in the Dark

"Then, with a skeptical attitude, I read through the improvement materials and realized that I had been prejudiced. Your improvement is worthy of being called the work of a master."

"I have also heard that you are so dedicated to improving Guoyiquan that you have stopped improving your qi and blood and have not practiced other styles of boxing."

“I am deeply moved by your dedication, which is why I proposed awarding you this Silver Lion Medal, a symbol of honor.”

"The progress of Guoyiquan generation after generation represents the ever-strengthening foundation of our great Chu."

"If you keep the country in your heart, the country will naturally not treat you unfairly."

Zhao Yingchun sighed again:
"Truly, heroes emerge from among the young."

Meng Chuan felt somewhat ashamed. Without the super trait of "one certificate for life," he wouldn't have wasted so much time on Guoyiquan.

Zhao Yingchun's eyes were kind, full of the care an elder has for the younger generation.

"But next, Meng Chuan, you need to focus your energy on improving your Qi and blood."

“I can see that you are a child with unique insights and comprehension of martial arts, and you should not be limited to the Qi and Blood Martial Artist stage.”

"Our country has countless ancient martial arts, and there are many legendary skills that are not known to the public, waiting for you to learn and improve them."

For example, the esoteric Buddhist martial art "Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill" and the Zen Buddhist divine skill "Sitting in Oblivion and Awakening Method"—the nation hopes that someone can improve and utilize these top-level martial arts techniques, which have extremely difficult cultivation conditions.

"Because within them lies the ultimate secret of the eighth limit of the human body!"

"So Meng Chuan, I hope you can always maintain your original aspirations and continue on this path with the spirit of exploring the Guoyiquan."

"Go as far as possible, until one day you can come into contact with these mysterious divine skills and raise the upper limit of humanity in this world!"

The old man's words stirred Meng Chuan's heart, filling him with a sense of pride and self-assurance.

"A tall building starts from the ground up. Taking steady steps is the most important thing. I look forward to your future."

"Meng Chuan will keep this in mind, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Zhao Yingchun smiled with satisfaction.

Then, changing the subject, he continued:

“I suppressed your plan to improve the National Righteous Boxing. Early fame is not always a good thing. It can make you distracted and attract secret surveillance.”

"After observing you today, your mindset should be fine, but the hidden threats should not be ignored. Before you grow stronger, you must be careful to protect yourself."

Meng Chuan understood Zhao Tianwang's meaning: before he had fully developed his power, he should indeed keep a low profile.

Because the spying in the shadows refers not only to the Heavenly Demons, but also to those on the demonic path!
Since ancient times, there has been a distinction between the righteous and the demonic, based on the difference in their behavior and logic in seeking the Tao.

The righteous path needs no further explanation, while the demonic path is an alternative way of seeking the Dao that was misunderstood in ancient times and differed from tradition.

As the saying goes, Taoism speaks of the unity of heaven and man, Buddhism speaks of transcending reincarnation, and the demons speak of freedom and self-mastery.

However, due to the existence of the Heavenly Demon, those who follow the demonic path have become universally reviled and wanted criminals, appearing on the bounty lists of the police and martial arts associations.

In search of a shortcut to martial arts training, modern demons have reached a consensus with the Heavenly Demons, becoming accomplices and lackeys who aid and abet evil and harm their fellow countrymen!
Most of the powerful figures who stood at the pinnacle of the demonic path, after realizing this, chose to sever ties with their identity as demonic practitioners.

However, in pursuit of greater power, some heretics still rallied together, re-established demonic organizations, cultivated evil demonic techniques, and nourished themselves with the blood and flesh of their own kind.

【Summoning Demon Palace】, 【Outer Heaven】, and 【Black Water】 are the three major demonic organizations within the Great Chu Kingdom. They have hidden strongholds throughout the country and have secretly planned and launched hundreds of bloody incidents.

"That's all for now, Meng Chuan, you can go now."

"Meng Chuan will keep in mind the Heavenly King's teachings."

After saying this, Meng Chuan bowed to Zhao Tianwang and left the room.

Inside the Cloud and Mist Pavilion, King Zhao muttered to himself:
"Ten years of drinking ice cannot cool the blood, you are a good child..."

……

Police station family compound.

"Uncle, I'm back."

As soon as Meng Yongzhi heard the sound of the door lock being opened, he sprang up from the sofa and rushed to Meng Chuan's side.

He was so excited that his mouth was trembling, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Meng Chuan noticed his uncle's agitation, patted him on the back, and gently comforted him:
"Uncle, don't rush. The certificate and medal are still here. Let's sit on the sofa and look at them slowly."

Meng Chuan helped his uncle sit down, placed the certificate on the coffee table, and took out the Silver Lion Medal from his pocket, handing it to his uncle. The medal gleamed brightly in the sunlight streaming in from the window.

Meng Yongzhi gently held the medal in his left hand while constantly wiping it with his right.

He murmured to himself:
"The Silver Lion..."

"Chuan'er, remember this, this is an honor you can be proud of for the rest of your life."

Meng Chuan nodded.

"Uncle, please don't get too excited. Take care of yourself."

"I know, I've calmed down now."

Meng Yongzhi took out his phone, ready to announce the matter to the world.

Meng Chuan quickly stopped him.

My uncle had already told his colleagues about his optimization of Guoyiquan.

But Master and Uncle Bai will inform Chief Inspector Long Jiu beforehand to keep this matter confidential.

After the pros and cons were explained clearly, my uncle finally gave up.

"Chuan'er, then let's listen to our senior's words. The demonic path is rampant, and your safety is the most important thing."

But he was still somewhat unwilling to give up. What should have been a great thing to announce to the world was being covered up because of these sordid matters.

Meng Chuan, his face radiating confidence, smiled faintly and said:

"When I become a martial artist, there will be no need to hide anything!"

"Your uncle believes in you, good!"

……

Meng Chuan handed the medal to his uncle. After wiping it for a long time, Meng Yongzhi found his wife's most expensive jewelry box and put the medal away.

Back in his room, Meng Chuancai remembered that the principal had also been concerned about the progress of the optimization of Guoyiquan.

【Hello, Principal.】

Upon seeing that it was Meng Chuan calling, the principal quickly put on his glasses and answered the call.

What happened to Meng Chuan?

The optimization of the Guoyiquan (National Righteousness Boxing) system has been approved.

Really? Hahaha, I knew you could do it!

On the other end of the phone, Principal Zong jumped for joy upon hearing the good news.

Yes, but please don't publicize it yet. Just keep it to yourself. The school's reward will be substantial.

After a moment's thought, Principal Zong understood what Meng Chuan meant.

[Understood, I will keep it a secret, but it's in the new textbook.]

There are countless people in the world with the same name, and this is currently in a small-scale pilot phase. Once it's rolled out nationwide, I think we won't need to keep it a secret anymore.

After hanging up the phone, Principal Zong sat on the sofa in a daze for a long time before he came to his senses. He took a sip of strong tea and muttered to himself:
"A genius, truly a genius."

Beilin District.

Ape God Martial Arts School is located in Beilin District, in the most bustling shopping mall, Yongye SEG Plaza.

On the ring, brothers Hu Jiaxiang and Hu Jiarui were sparring partners for a man who was over 1.9 meters tall.

Facing the two men's attacks, the big man remained calm and used the second-rate Tongbei Fist, a style of boxing that resembles the shape of the two men, to fight them off one by one. In just a few moves, he had the two men running away with their heads in their hands.

"It's boring. Once you master the hidden strength, you can instantly kill anyone below the fourth level of Qi and Blood."

Hu Jiarui rubbed his bruised arms and couldn't help but sigh:
"Senior Brother Wang, you're too amazing."

On the surface, the older brother was also flattering him, but in reality, he was seething with hatred.
"Knowing full well that we're both at the third level, you still used underhanded tactics to attack me, you son of a bitch Wang Xudong, I wish you a fatal night!"
