I relied on leveling up to achieve a comeback.

It took Xu Hao almost half an hour to get to the fish stall with his fishing boat.

This is a small dock, specifically prepared for fishermen.

Of course, there are also relevant management forces here, and you need to pay a certain management fee before you can go in to sell and buy.

Xu Hao reluctantly took out the copper coins, paid the money, moored the fishing boat in a corner, received his number, and laboriously carried the fish bucket into the bustling fish stall.

Xu Hao carried the fish bucket and quickly ran towards a fish shop called Cui's.

This property belongs to the Cui family of Qinghe County; they treat everyone honestly and fairly.

Among the many forces, it still has some reputation, at least it won't force you to buy or sell.

Xu Hao walked into Cui's Fish Shop and went straight to the counter.

Xu Hao looked at the shopkeeper who was resting with his eyes half-closed and his expression turned serious.

He was just a shopkeeper, yet he was also a first-level martial artist, but his attributes were relatively poor.

The highest speed is only 13 points!

However, the chubby shopkeeper's highest attribute is actually speed!

Xu Hao didn't dwell on it. He went to the counter, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and then stated his purpose, "Shopkeeper, do you buy treasure fish?"

At the counter, a middle-aged shopkeeper, who had been leisurely closing his eyes, opened them, glanced at Xu Hao's fisherman attire, and immediately said with a smile, "I'll take it. Do you have any?"

Xu Hao immediately reached into the fish bucket, actually taking out the golden-winged fish from his game backpack, and then placed it on the counter.

"Golden-winged fish?" The Cui family manager's eyes lit up.

Golden-winged fish possesses a great deal of spirituality and has an excellent taste, making it a very popular product.

Because it's the end of the year, goldfish are in high demand and short supply.

The only pity is that the goldfish died!

Those that are alive have greater value.

The shopkeeper, Cui, suppressed his joy, glanced at Xu Hao's fish bucket, and immediately quoted a price: "Including your other fish, it'll be twelve taels in total!"

"Sure!" Xu Hao quickly agreed.

This price has exceeded his expectations.

The extra two ounces could be used for emergencies and to pay the Dragon King's incense tax.

Recently, in the eastern suburbs where he lives, the Catfish Gang and the Fire Dragon Gang have been locked in a fierce battle. In order to make up for their losses, the Catfish Gang has repeatedly forced the people to pay high taxes.

Now, if ten taels are spent on martial arts training, the remaining two taels will be enough to deal with the exploitation by the Catfish Gang.

Both parties were very sincere, and the transaction was completed quickly.

After taking the golden-winged fish, the Cui family manager smiled and said, "Next time you have a treasure fish, just come to me. I'll definitely give you a good price!"

"Okay, thank you, shopkeeper!" Xu Hao nodded, then grabbed the silver and walked out of the shop.

He had more than ten taels of silver, which was like a child carrying gold, walking through the bustling city.

Going back would definitely lead to exploitation by the gang, so Xu Hao didn't go home. Instead, he turned around and headed straight for the Chen Family Martial Arts School to learn martial arts first!

This world requires us to arm ourselves with strength.

The reason Xu Hao chose the Chen Family Martial Arts School was mainly because he found out that the school had a good reputation, and the school's master had retired from the prefectural city due to injury, so he was truly skilled.

Xu Hao spent some time and soon arrived at the Chen Family Martial Arts School in Qinghe County.

Drink, ha!

The sounds of practicing boxing could be heard, accompanied by shouts from the students.

They were drenched in sweat, yet they wielded their fists with impressive force.

These people's attributes are much better than those of ordinary people, especially a few whose strength has reached six or even seven points.

He can be described as having extraordinary talent.

Xu Hao glanced at it enviously and continued walking inside.

Upon seeing the stranger arrive, a pretty woman in training clothes immediately stepped forward, smiling, and asked, "What brings you here?"

"I've come to learn martial arts!" Xu Hao looked at the woman in front of him, who was already in a broken state, and quickly clasped his hands to explain his purpose.

"Wait a moment!" The woman did not look down on Xu Hao because of his shabby clothes. Instead, she gently asked him to wait before quickly turning around and walking into the courtyard of the martial arts school.

A short while later, the woman came out with a middle-aged, burly man.

"This is Chen Changhe, the master of the Chen Family Martial Arts School!" Chen Yinyin quickly introduced.

Xu Hao looked up and his expression turned solemn.

The person standing before him was the strongest he had ever seen.

Chen Changhe, a fourth-level martial artist, has the following stats: Strength 31, Stamina 32, Agility 29, Spirit 9.

Technique: Fierce Tiger Fist (Perfected), Trait: Strength +18, Speed ​​+16 during execution

First breakthrough trait, Defense +10.

Second breakthrough trait: Endurance +9

Triple Break Special trait, Attack and Defense Combo +9

The fourth breakthrough grants the user a surge of vitality and enhanced recovery ability.

What the hell!

Xu Hao was shocked.

He had investigated the Fierce Tiger Martial Arts School and knew that it was a school that had retired from the prefectural city, and that the master was very strong.

Now it seems that this is more than just strong!

An ordinary person's strength is only five, but this master of the hall has thirty.

Six times the attributes of an ordinary person.

You must understand that when the power reaches a certain level, even just a little too much, it can be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

With six times the strength of an average person, who could withstand a single punch from him?

In addition to these martial arts characteristics, ordinary people's strength simply cannot break through their defenses.

I'm afraid Chen Changhe alone could be an army!

Chen Changhe of the Fierce Tiger Martial Arts School ignored Xu Hao's surprised gaze, instead scrutinizing Xu Hao from head to toe before asking directly, "You want to learn martial arts?"

"Yes!" Xu Hao replied quickly.

"Hmm!" Chen Changhe nodded lightly, then continued, "Where are you from? What do you do? How old are you?"

Xu Hao replied, "I'm from the eastern suburbs of Qinghe County, a fisherman for generations, and I'm now eighteen!"

"His family background is clean, and his age is acceptable!" Chen Changhe came up to Xu Hao, placed his hand on Xu Hao's shoulder, and after feeling around for a while, said, "His physical constitution is below average, but he can still train."

Xu Hao's face lit up with joy.

As long as he can practice, everything is fine, because he has a game panel, which will definitely help him improve his martial arts skills.

"To join my Chen Family Martial Arts School, you will need to pay a tuition fee of ten taels of silver. You can stay and eat at the school for the first month. After that month, you can choose to continue your training or leave the school!"

Don't complain about the price; my Fierce Tiger Fist is a top-grade martial art, considered first-class in the entire Qinghe County.

Even if the mirror breaks, it will be done faster and more reliably than others.

"Yes!" Xu Hao nodded.

"Of course, during the training period, you need to abide by the rules of my Chen Family Martial Arts School."

First, the martial arts techniques of the school must not be passed on to outsiders.

Second, during the martial arts training period, fellow disciples must not fight each other privately.

Third, during the period of learning martial arts, one must not join any evil sects.

Four……"

Chen Changhe, from the Chen Family Martial Arts School, stated several rules.

"Yes!" Xu Hao listened to each question and, after it was finished, immediately presented ten taels of silver.

"Hmm!" The museum owner, Chen Changhe, was very satisfied with Xu Hao's actions and then turned his head.

The woman standing nearby, Chen Yinyin, immediately understood and accepted Xu Hao's tuition fee.

"Come with me!" Master Chen Changhe led Xu Hao to the open space in the outer courtyard, then addressed the other disciples who were practicing their fist techniques, "Come and watch. Today, I'll explain the first breakthrough method of the Fierce Tiger Fist to you all from the beginning. Strive to break through as soon as possible!"

The other martial arts students immediately stopped practicing their punches and gathered around.
