Chapter 138 Successor

"Senior Brother Chen—he's lost just like that?"

"Hey, did I see that right? Senior Brother Su defeated his opponent with just one strike?"

"Just what kind of monster is Senior Brother Su? He defeated Senior Brother Chen in an instant without even drawing his sword?"

Su Yu withdrew his fist and stood calmly. He quickly stepped forward with the others to help Chen Fan up.

"Junior Brother Chen, are you alright?"

Chen Fan struggled to his feet, clutching his chest, his face ashen. The physical pain paled in comparison to the humiliation he felt. He stared intently at Su Yu, his eyes filled with disbelief and despair: "You—you've broken through to the second acupoint?"

Su Yu nodded slightly and said calmly, "You broke through by sheer luck. I held back in the final strike. Junior Brother, you can go back and recuperate for a few days."

"puff--!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Fan felt an overwhelming surge of anger in his chest, coughed up a mouthful of blood, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

Qin Yu quickly stepped forward to check, and after confirming that there was nothing seriously wrong, she said to Qin Fangqiong, "Father, it's nothing serious. Junior Brother Chen just has a rib fracture."

Two tendons were broken, causing his blood and qi to rush to his head, and he fainted.

Upon hearing this, Qin Fangqiong sighed and ordered, "Take him to the clinic for treatment!"

Qin Yu's expression immediately turned somewhat strange. It just so happens that Junior Brother Chen is going to the clinic again.

As Chen Fan was carried away, everyone's attention once again focused on Su Yu, their eyes filled with awe and shock.

"It really is a secondary acupoint! Senior Brother Su, that's incredibly fast!"

"Yes, it's shocking. Is he really of inferior aptitude?"

"Although Senior Brother Chen Fan was injured and recuperated for several months, he has excellent physique, yet Senior Brother Su surpassed him in cultivation speed!"

"Senior Brother Su is quite an unusual prodigy. He has mediocre talent but amazing comprehension. Breaking through the bottleneck is as easy for him as drinking water."

""

"Comprehension is such an elusive thing. I feel it's even harder to acquire than innate talent. Sigh, compared to Senior Brother Su, I always feel like I don't have a good brain."

Faced with the doubts and amazement of the crowd, Su Yu had already prepared his excuse. He turned around and bowed solemnly to Qin Fangqiong: "I am able to be where I am today entirely because of the Xuan-grade treasure medicine, the Purple Jade Bone Cleansing Flower, which my master bestowed upon me to cleanse my marrow and change my physique!"

"If it weren't for Master's life-saving grace, I would never have been able to break through this bottleneck so easily!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

"hiss----"

"A Xuan-level treasure medicine? The Purple Jade Bone-Cleansing Flower?"

The precious medicine that can change one's physical constitution is something they have never seen before, but one can imagine how valuable it is!

Qin Shi actually gave it to Su Yu; just how much does he think of Su Yu?

Qin Yu was envious when she heard this, never expecting that her father would give Su Yu such a precious medicine.

If I were given it to myself, my natural talent might even advance to the next level, reaching the superior level!

A look of admiration flashed in Qin Shi's eyes. Su Yu had actually broken through to the second acupoint. His cultivation speed had caught up with that of a genius with superior physique!

It wasn't for nothing that I gave him my life savings!

"Su Yu, come here, let your master feel your bones again."

"Yes, Master!"

Su Yu stepped forward as instructed, and Qin Fangqiong reached out and massaged his bones, her eyes gleaming: "Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Your innate talent has now reached the upper-middle level! Coupled with your comprehension, your future is limitless!"

He abruptly stood up, surveyed the entire room, and declared in a booming voice: "From this day forward, Su Yu is my, Qin Fangqiong's, successor!"

This announcement definitively established Su Yu's status. In the White Ape Martial Arts Academy, apart from Senior Brother Qi Linfeng and Senior Sister Qin Yu, probably no one could compare to Su Yu.

The others all looked on with envy. Master Qin was putting all his hopes on Su Yu!

Su Yu's future is absolutely bright!

Immediately, they all stepped forward to offer their congratulations.

Lin Wanzhu clutched her chest, laughing uncontrollably, her gaze towards Su Yu becoming increasingly intense and alluring.

With Su Yu's improved physical constitution, he was regarded by his master as his successor, and it was almost certain that he would break through to the Body Refining Realm in the future!

Xu Feng laughed heartily and patted Su Yu's shoulder heavily, sincerely congratulating him: "Junior Brother Su, congratulations! Let's have a couple of drinks tonight!"

Su Yu immediately replied with a smile, "How could I dare refuse my senior brother's invitation?"

Jiang Liuchuan, fanning himself with a folding fan, slapped a fifty-tael silver note into Su Yu's hand and said with a smile, "You rascal, you really can't be judged by ordinary standards! I, your senior brother, am completely convinced of my defeat!"

After saying that, he continued to put his arm around Su Yu's shoulder and whispered, "Come back to my Jiang family later, and your senior brother will give you something good."

Qin Fangqiong sat back in her armchair, leisurely took a bite of a chicken foot, and her gaze suddenly fell on Jiang Liuchuan, her heart stirring.

"Jiang Liuchuan, have you perfected your second acupoint?"

Jiang Liuchuan's face fell: "Master, I have been diligently studying and practicing every day, cultivating my qi and blood, but I still haven't sensed the Heavenly Aperture—"

"Diligent study and hard work?" Qin Fangqiong laughed loudly. "How could I not know your temperament, my disciple? If you can train your qi and blood every day, the sun will have to rise in the west."

Jiang Liuchuan chuckled awkwardly and remained silent, not daring to continue his banter with his master. Life is short, so let's enjoy it while we can.

The seven concubines in the household, and the girls at the Drunken Dream Pavilion, cannot be neglected.

"Jiang Liuchuan, you and Su Yu have another spar. The winner will be fifth, and the loser will be sixth!" Qin Fangqiong suddenly said.

"ah?"

Everyone was taken aback. What did Master Qin mean by this?

Although Su Yu broke through to the second acupoint, he had only been at it for a few days. His Qi and Blood Realm was far inferior to Senior Brother Jiang's, so how could he be a match for him?

Could it be that they saw that Senior Brother Su was too imposing and wanted to suppress him?

Jiang Liuchuan chuckled, "Master, are you suggesting I teach Junior Brother Su a lesson so he won't be so arrogant?"

He had spent two years cultivating at the second level of the Qi and Blood Realm, which gave him a significant advantage over Su Yu. How could Su Yu possibly be his match?

"Jiang Liuchuan, stop patting yourself on the back." Lin Wanzhu crossed her arms over her ample bosom and mercilessly exposed him: "With your inconsistent work ethic, you don't actually think you can beat Junior Brother Su, do you?"

"Hey! Senior sister, you're so biased!"

Jiang Liuchuan was displeased. He put away his folding fan, his languid air of a wealthy young master dissipating, replaced by the arrogance of a martial artist: "Although Junior Brother Su is a genius, I have spent two years cultivating my secondary acupoints, and my qi and blood are far more abundant than his. How could he possibly beat me?"

He turned to look at Su Yu and laughed, "Junior Brother Su, I am a genuine master of the second-level acupoints. You don't actually think you can defeat me, do you?"

Su Yu remained calm, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and said, "Senior brother, let's see who's the best. I'd also like to spar with you and see how I'm doing."

"Good! That's ambitious! In that case, I'll teach you a lesson!"

Jiang Liuchuan's competitive spirit was also aroused.

"Wait!"

Lin Wanzhu suddenly spoke, a sly glint in her eyes: "Since we're going to fight, Jiang Liuchuan, do you dare to go all out?"

Jiang Liuchuan was taken aback: "What kind of game does Senior Sister want to play?"

"Haven't you Jiang family always wanted to cooperate with my Lin family on that new trade route in the north?" Lin Wanzhu said with a smile. "If you win, my Lin family only wants 30% of the trade route's share; if you lose, my Lin family wants 40%, and you give Su Yu another 10%!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Liuchuan's expression changed slightly.

This is not a gamble involving tens of taels of silver; this one-tenth share is worth at least several thousand taels of silver every year!

Senior sister actually has so much confidence in Su Yu.

He turned to look at Su Yu, wondering if his junior brother had some hidden trump card.

However, in martial arts sparring, the level of Qi and Blood is fundamental and truly matters. Junior Brother Su has only just broken through. If I'm afraid of this, then I won't need to practice martial arts anymore!

As for losing, it simply means giving the Lin family an extra 10% share.

As for Junior Brother Su, this kid has a bright future. Giving him a 10% share is a good way to befriend him. It's a worthwhile deal!

"good!"

Jiang Liuchuan nodded decisively and looked at Su Yu: "Junior Brother Su, if you lose, I won't require you to pay anything. Just help my Jiang family once in the future if they are in trouble. How about it?"

Seeing Jiang's confident smile, Su Yu smiled slightly as well, "Then let's listen to Senior Brother and begin!"
