The Martial Saint, starting with daily intelligence.

"Hopefully, we can find some useful local intelligence tonight."

Zhong Ming sighed inwardly.

He had only recently broken through to the early stage of Bone Forging and hadn't even had a chance to rest and recover when the entire city of Tianjin seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

When gods fight, mortals suffer.

In battles between major powers, the powers themselves may be completely unaffected.

But it's not necessarily the case for the martial artists and low-level superhumans below. They're unloved and ignored. If they die, they're dead. Who cares?

Therefore, compared to those at the top, those at the bottom should actually pay more attention to changes in the situation.

When the situation worsens, the first to die, and the ones who suffer the most, are always those at the bottom and the lower classes.

Those who think everything is the same and that the turmoil has nothing to do with them, ordinary people, are either living too well and being too well protected, or they are too insensitive and have forgotten the cruelty of this world.

Inside the Li family pawnshop on Yanliu Street.

"The martial arts technique you applied for last time has been approved."

Station Master Li Weimin sat in the main seat, sipping his tea and speaking calmly.

Li Weimin placed a bound booklet on the table.

"Thank you very much, stationmaster. I am extremely grateful."

Zhong Ming first expressed his gratitude, then picked up the booklet, carefully flipped through it, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

Since breaking through to the Bone Forging stage, Zhong Ming has become an official intelligence agent for Tingfeng Tower.

In addition to the allowance, there is now an extra salary of three silver dollars plus twenty contribution points every month.

These are all freebies, just like the fixed salary you got when you were working in your previous life.

For Zhong Ming, silver dollars were irrelevant; the more contributions he made, the better.

Contribution points can be exchanged for many rare items that cannot be bought with money, such as martial arts techniques, cultivation resources, and so on.

These things are almost entirely monopolized by major powers.

What gets passed down are all common, low-quality products; it takes a lot of time and effort to master them without achieving anything significant.

Moreover, after becoming a formal member of Tingfenglou, one can choose a martial arts technique from the armory, which is considered a perk for new members.

Zhong Ming was just a temporary worker before, but now he has finally been promoted to a permanent position.

Of course, the higher the treatment one enjoys, the heavier the responsibilities one must bear.

Every few months, I need to complete a task assigned by the organization.

Zhong Ming had only just broken through to the Bone Forging stage less than a month ago, and the intelligence organization was usually quite relaxed except during special periods.

"The Seven Entangling Serpent Technique is a grappling technique, and it can be considered a high-quality skill for body-strengthening martial artists."

  This book is first published on 101kanshu.com, which has a complete library. Choose from 101kanshu.com and enjoy a reading experience with error-free and orderly chapters.

"But it requires considerable physical strength. Before learning grappling techniques, it is best to learn a palm technique."

Station manager Li Weimin suddenly got excited and couldn't help but give some simple pointers.

There's a saying in the martial arts world: A master of palm techniques may not be a master of grappling, but a master of grappling is definitely a master of palm techniques!

"Huh? Is that so?"

Zhong Ming feigned surprise.

There are many things you don't know.

Station manager Li Weimin rolled his eyes at Zhong Ming.

"You do have some talent when it comes to intelligence gathering, but when it comes to martial arts, tsk tsk."

Li Weimin shook his head.

"You really can't do it."

"You should ask me first when choosing martial arts techniques. I can't speak for others, but I can certainly give you some pointers."

"However, it's too late to regret it now that things have come to this."

"Please instruct me, Station Master. I will follow your lead without question, never abandon you, and dedicate myself to your cause until my dying breath."

Zhong Ming's face showed a pleading expression, and flattering words kept coming out of his mouth.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"I can't stand you."

Li Weimin waved his hand, somewhat impatiently.

He took a sip of his tea, seemingly deep in thought.

"The introductory boxing technique taught at Zhenyuan Martial Arts School is the Tiger-Taming Boxing Technique. Although it is not very powerful, it does have some unique advantages in cultivating qi and blood."

"In addition, the Zhenyuan Martial Arts School also has a Dragon Subduing Palm Technique, which is quite powerful and can be used up to the Marrow Cleansing Realm, but it is not easy to cultivate."

Li Weimin's gaze sharpened.

"Moreover, both of these martial arts techniques were separated from a technique called 'Dragon Subduing Tiger Fighting Technique,' which is a skill comparable to a classic-level martial art."

"It's just a pity that cultivation is too difficult, with extremely high requirements. Even the legendary Grandmaster of Core Formation finds it hard to succeed."

"It is said that a powerful being separated this technique, and the resulting techniques are the Tiger Subduing Fist and the Dragon Subduing Palm."

"It's a pity that while the technique is indeed easier to cultivate, its power is rather disappointing."

Li Weimin said calmly.

"You can pay to learn this palm technique from the Zhenyuan Martial Arts School."

"Thank you for your guidance, stationmaster. I am extremely grateful."

Zhong Ming complimented.

"By the way, station manager, the foreigner's extraordinary club has been frequently challenging local martial arts schools lately. Is there something going on behind the scenes?"

Seeing that stationmaster Li Weimin's gaze turned cold, Zhong Ming immediately shut up.

"What you need to know, you will know."

"It's not something you should know, and it's pointless for you to know anyway; it will only cause you more trouble."

Li Weimin said calmly, clearly knowing some inside information, but he didn't intend to explain anything to Zhong Ming.

Sensing the other person's feelings, Zhong Ming knew it was time to leave.

After another round of polite exchanges, stationmaster Li Weimin waved his hand, and Zhong Ming left.

"These are turbulent times!"

"How long can these peaceful days last?"

After Zhong Ming left, station chief Li Weimin sat alone in the room, muttering to himself.

···

Back at his residence, Zhong Ming opened his system panel.

Dragon Subduing Palm Technique?

Haha, Zhong Ming learned it a long time ago.

Of course, if a leader has a penchant for teaching, then subordinates should naturally be sensible and follow the leader's lead.

Do you still want to improve in the future?

How could Zhong Ming not know about the Tiger-Taming and Dragon-Subduing Fighting Techniques in Zhenyuan Martial Arts School?

Having stayed for three years, I know all the little stories and secrets inside and out.

Zhong Ming chose a grappling technique from Tingfeng Tower because he was practicing the Dragon Subduing Palm technique at the time.

Because of his physical cultivation level, Zhong Ming almost gave up the idea of ​​choosing any weapon or martial art.

With Zhong Ming's current physical strength of tens of thousands of kilograms, ordinary weapons are like toys in his hands. Even the Six Harmony Spear taught at Zhenyuan Martial Arts School, even if it is made of pure steel, weighs at most a hundred or eighty kilograms.

It's too light, too light, and it's impossible to unleash Zhong Ming's physical strength.

Moreover, in a real fight, Zhong Ming would have to worry about whether his weapon would snap.

Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?

Is it better to protect your weapon or to use your weapon to protect yourself?
