Physical immortality begins with Bajiquan

Inner courtyard.

Xu Feng had just finished instructing Jia Jinbao when he frowned slightly.

He has taught him more than ten times on his own, but Junior Brother Jinbao still hasn't made much progress.

Even judging from Jinbao's punches, the opponent hasn't made much progress in accumulating qi and blood in the past few days, showing no improvement whatsoever in his physical constitution.

After sighing, Xu Feng decided not to make things difficult for himself anymore.

Perhaps it was because this junior brother, who had such excellent aptitude, was too playful that he neglected his martial arts training.

Let's wait until Master returns this afternoon and let him worry about this problem.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng smiled and said:

"Junior Brother Jinbao, let's rest for a bit. You're Master's darling right now, so we can't let you get overworked, or I won't be able to explain it to Master." He pulled Jia Jinbao to sit down in the pavilion. "Yesterday, Master wrote to say that he would personally design a cultivation plan for you and personally guide your cultivation. With your talent, Junior Brother, your future is sure to be limitless."

Upon hearing this, Jia Jinbao's face lit up with smugness. Just as he was about to say something, his gaze was firmly locked onto by the woman in purple who had entered the inner courtyard.

This woman, dressed in a purple dress, possessed a captivating figure and alluring eyes, yet also carried the aloofness unique to a noble lady. Her gaze was both alluring and distant, and her noble bearing concealed a dangerous temptation that made it difficult to look away.

"Senior brother! And who is this?" Jia Jinbao asked intently.

"Hanyan! You're back! Did your trip go smoothly?" Xu Feng was delighted to see the woman. He immediately got up and walked over to her. After looking her up and down carefully, he couldn't help but hold her hands and ask.

"Brother Feng! Please don't do this, Junior Brother is still here." The woman in the purple dress let him hold her hand for a moment before forcefully pulling it away, her eyes sweeping over Jia Jinbao.

"This must be Junior Brother Jinbao, right? He is indeed a handsome young man." She smiled, her voice soft and noble. "I am Huang Hanyan, from the Huang family, one of the five great families of the inner city. I am your fourth senior sister. Junior Brother, you should remember this well, because you might need to come to my Huang family again someday when you need to take up a post."

Upon hearing this, Jia Jinbao's face instantly lit up. He excitedly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and began to chat attentively with Huang Hanyan, addressing her as "Senior Sister" repeatedly.

However, whenever Xu Feng chimed in, the smile on his face would freeze almost imperceptibly for a moment. Seeing his third senior brother and fourth senior sister being so intimate, he even felt a pang of jealousy, but he dared not show it because of his senior brother's strength.

......

in the afternoon.

Mo Guangren pushed open the door and strode into the martial arts hall.

Upon seeing their master return, the disciples of the outer courtyard stepped forward to pay their respects. He nodded to everyone and then went straight into the inner courtyard without stopping.

"Greetings, Master!"

"Master, you're back!" Third senior brother Xu Feng, fourth senior sister Huang Hanyan, Jia Jinbao and other disciples stepped forward to pay their respects.

Mo Guangren smiled and looked at each of his disciples before turning to Jia Jinbao and asking:

"So you are Jia Jinbao?"

"Yes! Disciple Jia Jinbao greets Master!"

Jia Jinbao stepped out from beside Huang Hanyan and bowed respectfully.

Mo Guangren's smile widened as he looked at Jia Jinbao, who was dressed in the blue robes of a disciple:

"Excellent! Such superior physical talent is extremely rare even in the entire Heyang County. I never expected that I, Mo Guangren, would have such a gem of martial arts as my disciple!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped forward and dutifully checked on Jia Jinbao's progress in martial arts training over the past two days.

However, as soon as his hand touched her, he couldn't help but frown.

He stepped back two paces and carefully examined Jia Jinbao: "Have you been diligently practicing your stances these past few days?"

Jia Jinbao was taken aback upon hearing this, and a somewhat unnatural expression appeared on his face.

"Master, I practice the stances every day."

Upon hearing this, Mo Guangren frowned even more deeply.

According to his estimation, even if Jia Jinbao had only been there for two days, the amount of qi and blood he had accumulated from practicing the stance training should not have been so little.

Could it be that this disciple isn't working hard enough? Or is it that although he has good aptitude, his comprehension is too poor?

"Who has been bringing Jinbao these past two days?" Mo Guangren asked Xu Feng.

"Reporting to Master, yesterday it was Senior Brother who personally led the training, and today it is I who am leading it." Xu Feng approached Mo Guangren, and after thinking for a moment, added, "That day it was Fifth Junior Brother who felt the bones, and Senior Brother had something to do that morning and couldn't come."

"Did the fifth brother touch your bones?" Upon hearing this, Mo Guangren suddenly reached out and began to knead Jia Jinbao's body all over.

The force was stronger and more intense than that of his fifth senior brother. His knuckles were like iron, grinding against him until his bones ached terribly. He couldn't help but grit his teeth and endure the pain.

He also felt a pang of regret, wishing he had worked harder today. His talent was too good, which made him arrogant and complacent.

A moment later, the hands withdrew their force, and Jia Jinbao immediately felt relieved. The tension in his body eased considerably. He looked at his master, wanting to "admit" his mistake and then express his determination, saying a few words about working hard to improve his skills. But Mo Guangren's next sentence struck him like a thunderbolt.

"Bring the fifth brother over here! How exactly did he examine his bones?! He turned inferior bones into superior ones!" Even with Mo Guangren's more than thirty years of self-control, he couldn't suppress the surging anger in his voice.

What?!

Upon hearing this, Jia Jinbao felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. His face turned deathly pale, and he even stopped breathing instantly. Cold sweat soaked his back in an instant.

The disciples of the inner courtyard finally came to their senses, and the whole place erupted in uproar, with everyone showing surprise on their faces.

Xu Feng suddenly realized why he couldn't teach him no matter how hard he tried; it really wasn't his fault!

Huang Hanyan felt extremely disgusted. She had just smiled at a poor man with inferior constitution for so long, and the man had even gotten so close to her!

In no time, Xu Feng brought Li Yiping back from outside the martial arts school.

"You wicked disciple! Is this the superior talent you've discovered?" Mo Guangren demanded as he saw Li Yiping rushing over.

Li Yiping hiccuped, walked quickly to Jia Jinbao, and muttered to herself in surprise:

"That's impossible! I clearly found a top-tier talent, something like Treasure."

He reached out to touch Jia Jinbao, who was standing motionless with a deathly pale face, and after a few breaths exclaimed in surprise:

"Truly inferior talent!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Guangren roughly understood the situation.

It's likely that this fifth brother came drunk again and mistook someone for someone else. But whether the other person has superior aptitude will only be known after examination.

He looked up at Li Yiping, who reeked of alcohol, and was about to say a few more words of reprimand, but then seemed to remember something, shook his head slightly, and said no more.

"Go and call the other person over. Their name should contain the character 'Bao' (宝)," Mo Guangren said, looking at Xu Feng.

"Yes, Master!" Xu Feng glanced at Li Yiping, who was still somewhat dazed, without revealing his presence, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes, and walked towards the outer courtyard.

Soon, Qin Tianbao followed Xu Feng into the inner courtyard.

Qin Tianbao entered the inner courtyard. Although he had many doubts, he remained calm and fearless.

After looking Qin Tianbao up and down, Mo Guangren's eyes lit up and he stretched out his hands.

Just as carefully as he had examined Jia Jinbao's bones, he checked his feet from top to bottom for about half an incense stick's time before finally withdrawing his hands with satisfaction.

"Excellent! This is truly superior physical constitution!"

Mo Guangren looked at Qin Tianbao with a gentle expression:

"What's your name? Would you like to become my disciple?"

Qin Tianbao was shocked to hear this. Did this mean there was a mistake? That Jia Jinbao was a fake top-tier talent, while he was the real top-tier talent?

"Disciple Qin Tianbao pays respects to Master!" Qin Tianbao knelt down and kowtowed without the slightest hesitation.

Mo Guangren laughed heartily:

"Though there have been twists and turns, I have ultimately obtained a true gem for martial arts training. From today onwards, I will personally teach you. Get up, Tianbao." Mo Guangren said, pulling Qin Tianbao to his feet, and pointing to the surrounding disciples, "These are your senior brothers and sisters, get to know them first."

"Congratulations on becoming an inner disciple, junior brother! I'm sorry, junior brother, I made a mistake." Li Yiping stepped forward first, scratched the back of her head, and admitted her mistake apologetically.

Huang Hanyan followed closely behind, a polite smile curving her lips. "Congratulations, Junior Brother Tianbao. I am your fourth senior sister, Huang Hanyan."

Xu Feng and the other disciples also stepped forward to surround Qin Tianbao, congratulating him with smiles and chatting.

Not far away, Jia Tianbao, still standing frozen in place, was trembling, unable to utter a single word.

Just before his master returned, he was full of hope that with his superior aptitude and his master's personal guidance, he would surely achieve great things in the future, and he might even be able to compete with noble ladies like Huang Hanyan.

But in the blink of an eye, all of this turned into a complete dream, a dream that could never be realized after waking up!

"Thump!"

Finally, Jia Jinbao could no longer support his heavy body, and his legs gave way, causing him to collapse to the ground.

But now, nobody cares about him anymore.
