Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

He... he only gained a little bit of spiritual power by using his special breathing technique to absorb spiritual energy, but Grandpa Xiaoming actually developed real internal strength.

From a certain perspective, internal strength and spiritual power should be considered to be similar.

They are all forms of energy that exist within the body.

You really shouldn't underestimate anyone.

"Senior is indeed amazing!" Ye Chen exclaimed sincerely.

"Hey, what makes me so great? I've taken many detours myself!" Grandpa Xiaoming waved his hand.

The group looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.

As they chatted, it felt like I was understanding less and less of what they were saying!

They've even brought out internal energy! Isn't this something you only see in TV dramas?

Could it exist in real life too?!

Does this mean Ye Chen possesses internal energy?

This... Xiaoming's grandfather also has internal energy?

Holy crap, are you kidding me? Xiaoming's grandpa and the others don't know much about him, but Ye Chen and the others do.

Ye Chen didn't practice martial arts during his four years of university, so how could he have internal strength?

Grandpa Xiaoming must have misread it.

Everyone still found it hard to believe.

Xiao Ming, in particular, couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, does Xiao Chen really have internal energy? Are you sure you're not mistaken? How old is he?!"

Grandpa Ming glanced at Xiaoming and said, "That feeling is unmistakable. It's related to talent, and young people have a higher probability of achieving success in martial arts!"

At this moment, Grandpa Ming extended an olive branch to Ye Chen: "Little Ye, would you be interested in joining the Shanghai Tai Chi Association?"

"I wonder what the requirements are for joining these associations, and what I'm required to do?" Ye Chen asked curiously.

"As long as you are a martial arts enthusiast, love martial arts, and are willing to promote and spread martial arts, you are welcome to join!" Grandpa Xiaoming said with a smile. "You don't need to do anything; just actively participate in the occasional activities organized by the association!"

After listening, Ye Chen suddenly realized that he had always thought that various associations were far removed from him.

That seems pretty down-to-earth!

However, Ye Chen still declined: "I appreciate your kindness, senior, but I'm currently in Lucheng, which might be inconvenient. Let's discuss this later!"

He's based in Xiamen, so what's the point of having a Tai Chi association in Shanghai?

We have to travel so far to organize an event!

"It's not as complicated as you think. There are only one or two group activities a year. The members are brothers from all over the country, and the activity location may not even be in Shanghai, so it won't affect anything!" Grandpa Xiaoming said with a smile.

"Furthermore, joining the membership allows you to find like-minded friends to study and discuss principles together, which can only be beneficial for someone your age!"

Grandpa Ming is like a big bad wolf, luring Ye Chen, this little white rabbit!

Ye Chen thought about it for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.

Since they've already gone this far, adding one more thing doesn't seem like a big deal.

Seeing that Ye Chen had agreed, Grandpa Ming smiled, stood up, and shook Ye Chen's hands: "Great, great! On behalf of the Shanghai Tai Chi Association, I welcome you to join us, Ye Chen!"

Ye Chen felt something was off. Was he now considered part of an organization?

"Hello, President!" Ye Chen didn't know what to say, so he could only offer a polite greeting.

"Hey, why are you calling me 'President'? That sounds so formal. Just call me 'Big Brother'!" Grandpa Xiaoming said sternly.

Xiao Ming, standing to the side, twitched his face: "Grandpa, no way! Ye Chen is my brother, how can I call you 'Big Brother'!"

Grandpa Ming glanced at him sideways: "We're all brothers in this group, it's perfectly fine for you to call me 'Big Brother,' don't interrupt!"

"Xiao Ye, where are you from? What year were you born? I'd like to have someone record your information!"

Ye Chen then gave a brief account of his basic information.

"Alright, you young people are busy, I'm going out for a bit!" With that, Grandpa Xiaoming left happily.

Ye Chen looked at Xiao Ming's resentful expression and comforted him, "As long as the old man is happy, don't worry about these details. From now on, we'll address each other differently. I'll call you Xiao Ming, and you can call me Uncle!"

"Get out! Get out!" Xiao Ming was very annoyed.

"Hahaha--"

"Brother Chen, you really are a hidden master! Tell us what internal energy is. I'm completely confused!" Dongzi stared at Ye Chen with curiosity.

"You guys can explain it to yourselves, I don't know how to describe it to you!" Ye Chen shook his head.

"Is it like the kind in TV dramas?" Xiaoqiang asked with a curious look.

"That's not wrong to understand it that way!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Holy crap, that's awesome! How did you train, bro?" Zhou Chao chimed in.

"When I was a child, I met a master who said I was a martial arts prodigy, so I practiced martial arts in the coldest winter and hottest summer..." Ye Chen said, spouting nonsense with a straight face.

After playing around for a while, everyone got up to try on their best man outfits.

They didn't get anything substantial from Ye Chen, but they did hear a lot of stories...

The groomsmen wore black suits with bow ties, and the five of them looked quite stylish standing together after trying them on.

"Speaking of which, what if I end up wearing the same outfit as the doorman?" Dongzi asked, his imagination running wild.

Xiao Ming replied with a unique perspective: "I'm the star tomorrow. Your matching outfits will only highlight my uniqueness. Otherwise, if you all look like Daniel Wu, my brilliance will be overshadowed!"

"Oh, I knew it! You're quite the schemer!" Dongzi glanced at Xiaoming sideways.

"Haha, actually Xiaoming prepared this especially for me, since I'm the only one here who can rival Yanzu!" Ye Chen started his mocking mode!

Xiao Ming rolled his eyes: "Show-off! Let's go to the venue. My wife and bridesmaids are there too, we can go through the formalities!"

When the group arrived at the venue, the woman also happened to be there.

This was the first time everyone had seen the bride-to-be in person.

That bastard Xiaoming is too stingy to expose his photo!

To everyone's slight surprise, the bride didn't seem as robust as they had imagined!

Ye Chen glanced at Xiao Ming, then at the bride-to-be in the distance, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy crap, Xiao Ming, how did you two, with your adorablely different body types, end up together? What did she see in you?"

Everyone had a similar expression!

The bride-to-be doesn't look bulky at all; in fact, she has a rather graceful and elegant appearance.

Ye Chen observed carefully; her looks were above average, and her chubby face had a lucky charm for her husband.

"Hehe, of course it was my magnificent figure that won her over! You guys don't understand girls' minds. If you did, you would have been single by now!" Xiao Ming shook his head narcissistically.

The five bridesmaids were all fair-skinned and beautiful, wearing pink bridesmaid dresses, which made the groomsmen want to howl.

The bride-to-be and her group walked over, smiling as they greeted Xiaoming and then Ye Chen and the others.

The bride-to-be is quite approachable, without the overbearing air of a spoiled rich girl!

It's obvious that she and Xiaoming do have some feelings for each other; their eyes are even different.

Xiao Ming really struck gold; he's definitely reached the pinnacle of his life.

Director Liu Xiaoqian arrived at this time and asked, "Young Master Su, why didn't your grandfather and the others come to the rehearsal?"

"Oh, my grandpa said no need, life has no rehearsals, it's all live!"
