This martial arts tournament is time-stopping.

"Either this world is flawed! It's no longer suitable for cultivation..."

Ye Chu's idea was not without basis.

Last night, he used the power of the Yellow Turban Warriors to suppress the Ghost Handprint, but by the middle of the night, the Ghost Handprint's chilling effects had subsided on their own.

But until this moment,

The power of the Yellow Turban Warriors within him had not yet been restored.

It was as if a crucial substance was missing from the world.

This is why the Yellow Turban Warriors' power cannot automatically absorb the power of heaven and earth to recover as described in "Zhang Jiao's Classroom in the River of Time," but can only be slowly restored by depleting their own essence, energy, and spirit.

However, today is a big day for the martial arts school to pass on its skills, so Ye Chu can only suppress the Yellow Turban Warrior from devouring his essence and spirit, so that he can focus on the memory of "Tiger Subduing Stance" at this moment.

"Did that guy over there memorize the stance training before he started spacing out?"

Nie Qingcang watched as Yang Heng and Han Heng practiced the stance training quite well, and estimated that after practicing it two or three more times, they would be able to memorize it completely.

But when he looked up, the boy on the left in the back row had been stunned for a moment and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Master, I have memorized the stance training and am currently contemplating the true meaning of subduing the tiger!"

Ye Chu cupped his hands in reply.

The reason he flaunted it so much was because everyone knew he was of good physique.

However, since the immortal body can continue to grow, and cultivation techniques can be improved rapidly, the cultivation speed will certainly not be too slow.

If one does not want to waste a lot of time trying to match the cultivation speed of someone with a lower-grade aptitude at each stage of cultivation, and if one wants to keep up with the martial arts progress of people with lower-grade aptitudes like Yang Heng and Han Heng, then one can only work on developing an unpredictable level of comprehension.

Moreover, one's comprehension and talent should not be revealed too late; this is the perfect stage for beginners to learn stance training!

"Ye Chu, don't be ridiculous! We're both of similar aptitude, and we've both only practiced stance training with our master once. I haven't even memorized half of it, and you dare to claim you've memorized it all?"

Niu San had been holding back his anger for a while, but when he saw Ye Chu daring to speak recklessly, he immediately stood up to mock him.

Seeing this rare opportunity, and also wanting to suppress the unpleasant feeling this peasant had about looking at him as an equal:

"You lowly tenant farmer, even I've only memorized half of it, yet you dare to boast that you've learned it all? Aren't you going to apologize to your master right now?"

Ji Shan, who was standing next to him, opened his mouth to defend his brother-in-law, but was glared at by Yang Heng. So he only dared to tug at Ye Chu's arm slightly, signaling his brother-in-law to lower his head and let the matter pass.

Han Heng turned around and looked at this scene, but his eyes flickered slightly.

From the moment Master Yang gave his "Martial Arts Prodigy" contract to Master Nie, he knew that he would no longer be on the same side as Yang Heng, and that his identity would be greatly changed.

But just like Ye Chu at this moment, although they were all tenants of the Yang family from Qingniu Village, they were still being suppressed by Yang Heng in the name of their former master when they came to the martial arts school.

If one's aptitude is inferior and the money for martial arts training is provided by the Yang family, then living under someone else's roof is how it should be.

But everyone is now free!

Yang Heng kept calling them lowly tenants?

Who would want that?

Therefore, Han Heng would rather gamble that Ye Chu's memory was better than his own than flatter Yang Heng!

"Since Brother Ye said he remembered it, then we can distinguish the real from the fake by practicing it once!"

When Han Heng helped Ye Chu out of the predicament, he specifically looked at Nie Qingcang.

With Nie Qingcang nodding slightly, Ye Chu's opportunity to demonstrate his 'comprehension' had arrived.

"I've only just memorized them, and many of my movements are not standard. I hope my master will correct me!"

"Okay, let's begin!"

Ye Chu, as if replicating the original, stiffly linked one movement after another with his breathing.

Although it wasn't aesthetically pleasing, I did remember the movements, the Tiger Breathing, and the Tiger Form—that's a fact!

Among them, movements and breathing can be memorized with a strong memory;

However, the "Crouching Tiger Form" can only be cultivated to achieve its unique charm after a certain understanding of the "Crouching Tiger Stance"!

Therefore, Nie Qingcang suddenly felt a sense of emotion and was certain that although this disciple named Ye Chu's innate talent was not great, his comprehension was higher than that of the other two top-grade innate talents!

Oh, heavens, you have blessed me with such outstanding disciples! Great fortune has come my way!

This should have been a cause for celebration, but the concentration of geniuses in the Dragon Tiger Hall gave him a strange sense of unease...

"His comprehension is excellent. As long as he eats and drinks properly, he might be able to keep up with Yang Heng's cultivation speed in the future!"

Nie Qingcang gave it a high evaluation and then led everyone to continue practicing the stance training.

After everyone practiced three more times, the seven people were then allowed to practice separately.

"not bad!"

Nie Qingcang's gaze swept over Yang Heng and Han Heng. As expected of those with exceptional talent, the two had already memorized all the stance training techniques.

He then proceeded to slightly adjust the movements of Yang Heng, Han Heng, and Ye Chu, making them both standard and tailored to their individual body types.

"Is this a minor adjustment to the stance training, creating a personalized version? Luckily, I showed off my 'insight,' otherwise I would have missed this opportunity!"

Ye Chu was secretly delighted.

However, as the head of the academy, he did not show favoritism. He instructed the other four people who had only memorized a small part of the stance training on the standardized movements of the stance training they could remember.

After giving instructions to all seven people, he then discussed the arrangements for their subsequent cultivation:

"Then, we used the water-grinding technique to awaken the potential of the internal organs through standing meditation, and then extracted the essence and qi by consuming a large amount of food and medicine to support the training of strength and body, which nourishes the qi sensation, then captures the qi sensation, and finally condenses the qi and blood."

"Once you complete these three minor trials and accumulate enough qi and blood to cover your body's surface, and master the basics of the 'Tiger Subduing Stance' to cultivate a tiger's roar and thunderous sound within your chest, you will be able to break through the blood barrier and become a martial artist!"

"Before breaking through the Blood Barrier, you three senior brothers will guide your cultivation."

After Nie Qingcang finished speaking, he turned and went back to the inner courtyard.

Qi Feixing, the third senior brother, chimed in: "Those who have learned the stance training can practice on their own. I will only teach those who haven't learned it for three more days."

"What if three days have passed and you still haven't learned it?"

Yang Shuisheng, whose physique was weak, asked timidly.

It's true, comparing yourself to others is infuriating!

The tenant slave Ye Chu learned it after watching it only once, and the young master and Han Heng learned it after practicing it two or three times. But now he felt like his head was a complete mess. He only remembered the first few movements of the stance training, and had no recollection of the rest.

Therefore, Yang Shuisheng was afraid that he wouldn't be able to memorize all the movements within three days!

Even being repatriated to the Yang family is a minor matter; the real danger is that the master will make him pay back the money he spent on martial arts training—that would be a matter of life and death!

"If you didn't learn it, you didn't learn it. You'll figure it out yourself... You can't expect the martial arts school to teach you for the rest of your life just because you can't learn it, can you?"

Qi Feixing's words were somewhat cruel.

But he also needs time to hone his skills and cannot waste all his time teaching newcomers.

However, his words terrified the four people who had not yet memorized the stance training, turning their faces deathly pale.

"They charged everyone 10 taels of silver, but didn't even guarantee they'd learn how to use it. What a ruthless scheme!"

Yang Heng cursed inwardly, but didn't rush to speak.

On the one hand, it can put some pressure on these four people to learn quickly;

On the other hand, it also allowed the four to see his talent as the young master, so that they could only look up to him and never have the slightest thought of betrayal.

"Third Senior Brother, according to past experience, how long does it take to master the Tiger Subduing Stance?" Han Heng asked.

Ye Chu needed this time pattern to control the speed at which he added cultivation points, so he pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
