High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

On the training ground.

Lin Mengyao sheathed her sword and stood still, her breathing steady, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

She was much more agile than before.

Lin Zuyao was dumbfounded.

This... is an improvement?

In just a few words, this girl's swordsmanship improved by a whole new level?!

"Master, your talent is truly admirable!"

Lin Zuyao stepped forward, clasped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Chen Yuan, and spoke with great admiration.

"I've been teaching Mengyao for so many years, and I've never noticed these problems before. Master Si saw them at a glance; I can't even begin to match that insight."

Chen Yuan waved his hand dismissively.

"Elder Lin, you're too kind. I've just seen a lot."

He glanced at Lin Mengyao and said calmly:

"If we continue training in this way, we should be able to move up a few places in the league in half a month, which is more than we expected."

Lin Mengyao's eyes sparkled upon hearing this.

Move up a few places?

Doesn't that mean... we have a chance to break into the top three in the grade?!

This is in the top three of the grade in the league, not just in Luoyang Wuda University!

She quickly bowed again.

"Thank you for your guidance, Director Chen! I will definitely practice hard!"

Chen Yuan nodded and said nothing more.

......

At this time.

Lin Wei walked back from outside with a big smile on her face.

The person arrived before the voice.

"Master! It's done!"

She walked quickly to Chen Yuan, her face beaming with a smile as bright as a flower.

"Principal Fang was so excited when he heard you were coming to watch the game that he almost jumped out of his chair! He asked me to tell you that he absolutely must have you serve as the head referee for this league!"

He said it was an honor for their Luodu Martial Arts University, and also an honor for all martial arts geniuses in the entire Great Xia Dynasty!

Lin Wei spoke with a smug look in her eyes.

"I told him that Chief Judge Chen's presence is a favor to them, and the head referee position must be yours!"

Chen Yuan nodded.

"Okay, then that's settled."

He glanced at the sky.

The sun was already setting in the west; the afternoon was almost over.

"It's getting late, we should head back."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wei's face showed reluctance, but she didn't dare to stop her.

"Then...shall I see you off, Master?"

Chen Yuan waved his hand.

"No need, you guys are busy."

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

An invisible thought instantly enveloped the entire Lin family mansion.

Youying, who was engrossed in eating in the banquet hall, suddenly stopped what she was doing.

It raised its head.

A hint of lingering satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

"Did the boss call me?"

It glanced at the half-eaten plate of spirit beast meat still on the table, and then, sensing the sweating Lin family chefs in the kitchen, hesitated for a moment.

"Never mind, the boss is more important."

It vanished from the banquet hall in a flash.

at the same time.

Chen Tianling and the others, who had been standing quietly outside the main hall, also moved at the same time and appeared behind Chen Yuan.

The Lin family's chefs all breathed a sigh of relief as they looked in the direction where the shadow had disappeared.

"Finally... finally gone..."

A young chef wiped the sweat from his brow.

"This isn't a pet, it's a gluttonous beast reincarnated! It devoured most of our Lin family's food supply for the next two weeks in just one day!"

An old chef standing nearby smiled wryly:

"Alright, stop complaining."

"It's our good fortune to be able to serve Master Chen's mount. Besides, if this beast had a different owner, they might not be able to afford to keep it."

The young chef thought for a moment and nodded.

"That's true... how much must a beast at the early stage of Martial Saint eat in a day..."

......

Outside the Lin family's gate.

The shadowy figure had expanded to a size of tens of meters and was suspended in mid-air.

Chen Yuan stepped onto its back, followed closely by Chen Tianling and the others.

He glanced back at Lin Zuyao, Lin Wei, Shen Qing, and Lin Mengyao, who were standing at the door, with a blush on her face, standing at the very back.

His gaze fell on Lin Mengyao.

"Looking forward to your performance in two weeks."

Lin Mengyao's heart raced, and she nodded vigorously, "Yes! I will definitely not let Master down!"

Lin Wei quickly added from the side:

"Perform well, don't embarrass Chief Chen!"

Lin Mengyao nodded again, her eyes filled with determination.

Chen Yuan nodded slightly.

"I'm gone."

With a flap of its wings, the shadowy creature took to the air.

It expands again as it flies high into the sky.

Chen Yuan stood on the back of Youying with his hands behind his back, flying towards Longyuan Mountain.

This time, they still swaggered around without trying to hide their presence.

The Lin family members stood at the door, looking up at the receding figure, their gaze lingering for a long time.

Only after the shadowy figure completely disappeared into the clouds did Lin Wei turn her head to look at her daughter.

"Silly girl, snap out of it."

Lin Mengyao then came to her senses and blushed again.

Seeing her like this, Lin Wei took her daughter's hand and whispered:

"Girl, Mom is creating an opportunity for you, you must seize it. There's no second man like Director Chen on the entire planet."

Lin Mengyao lowered her head and muttered softly:

"She's so amazing, how could she possibly be interested in me..."

Lin Wei patted her on the shoulder.

"How will you know if you don't try? Besides, you're no less impressive; you're beautiful and talented."

"Work hard and strive for a good ranking in the league. When Director Chen comes to watch the game, if you perform well, you might get to say a few more words to him."

Lin Mengyao nodded vigorously.

"Yes! I will try my best!"

She looked up and gazed in the direction of Longyuan Mountain.

Which proud young woman wouldn't love someone as powerful as Master Chen?

Now that she has the opportunity to get close, she must seize it!

......

Chen Yuan rode the Shadow and flew slowly back.

Along the way, it continued to attract the admiration and cheers of countless martial artists and ordinary people.

Chen Yuan appeared calm, but his mind was elsewhere.

Hopefully, I can unlock a hidden achievement at the Martial Arts Tournament in two weeks...

at the same time.

Kyoto City, the embassies of various countries.

The well-informed envoys had already learned of Chen Yuan's whereabouts.

Embassy of the Republic of America.

"What?! Chen Yuan went to the Lin family's house as a guest today?!"

The ambassador of the Republic of Amerika was ashen-faced.

"Didn't he say he was busy and needed to meditate?! How did he have time to eat at the Lin family's house?!"

The counselor beside him said cautiously:

"Mr. Ambassador, according to reliable sources, Chen Yuan did indeed go to the Lin family's house at noon today and stayed until the afternoon before leaving."

"Moreover... he rode that ninth-tier behemoth and swaggered over Kyoto, which was seen by many people."

The ambassador slammed his fist on the table.

"This is outrageous! They're deliberately trying to embarrass us!"

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Go, contact people in other countries. Especially Japan; they're the worst at stirring up trouble. Get them to confront Qin Yu and demand an explanation!"

"yes!"

......

Embassy of Japan.

The ambassador with the mustache looked even more unpleasant than the ambassador from America.

"Baka... This Chen Yuan is so disrespectful!"

He gritted his teeth.

"Not only do you refuse to see us, but you also go to the Lin family's house for dinner! Isn't that blatant disrespect?!"

The military officer next to him whispered:

"Your Excellency, should we... go find Qin Yu and ask him for clarification?"

The ambassador narrowed his eyes.

"Ask! Of course you should ask!"

"Not only us, but we'll bring people from other countries too! Let Great Xia see what consequences their treatment of foreign delegations will have!"

......

One hour later.

Headquarters of the Dragon Martial Arts Division, reception hall of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Qin Yu was processing documents when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

He looked up and saw a group of diplomats storming in aggressively.

The one leading the group was the ambassador from Japan.

Following them were envoys from more than a dozen countries, including the Kingdom of America, the Western European Union, and India.

Qin Yu frowned, but maintained a professional smile on his face.

"Everyone, what's going on here...?"

The Japanese ambassador interrupted him directly.

"Minister Qin! We need an explanation!"

His face was ashen, and his tone was aggressive.

"Master Chen said this morning that he was too busy with work and needed to meditate, so he didn't have time to see us. But this afternoon, he rode that giant beast and swaggered over to the Lin family as a guest!"

"What does this mean?! Are you disregarding Japan?!"

The ambassador of America also coldly stated:

"Minister Qin, we from America have come with sincerity. Director Chen's attitude has disappointed us greatly."

A representative from the Western European Union also spoke up:

"Minister Qin, while we understand that Director Chen holds a distinguished position, such differential treatment may not be conducive to friendly relations between our two countries."

Envoys from other countries chimed in, each offering their own opinion, creating a chaotic scene.

Qin Yu's smile gradually faded after hearing this.

He looked at the group of people in front of him and sneered inwardly, thinking that the Great Xia was the same as it was ten years ago.

Still putting on airs here? You've been too kind to me, haven't you?

He stood up and said calmly:

"Everyone, are you done speaking?"

The Japanese ambassador was taken aback.

"you......"

Qin Yu waved his hand, interrupting him.

"Since you want an explanation, then I will give you an explanation."

"Chief Chen is indeed very busy. He has to cultivate, comprehend techniques, and deal with various emergencies every day, such as the time he went to the Netherworld Cave to kill a peak ninth-tier alien a few days ago."

"The reason I was able to take the time to visit the Lin family today is because Elder Lin is a Martial Saint Elder of the Dragon Martial Division, and Minister Lin is the Minister of General Affairs. They have official business dealings with Director Chen."

"As for everyone..."

Qin Yu's lips curled into a smile that was neither a smile nor a frown.

"Who are you all? What makes Chief Chen willing to set aside his cultivation to see you?"

The words fell.

The hall fell silent instantly.

The Japanese ambassador blushed, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

The ambassador of the Republic of Amerika was ashen-faced, but dared not refute.

Qin Yu continued:

"You have all lived in the Great Xia for so many years, you should know our Great Xia's rules: the strong are respected."

"Chief Chen is the only peak Martial Saint on Blue Star. It is his freedom to see whomever he wants or doesn't want to see. If you feel wronged, you can go back to your country. No one is stopping you."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at everyone.

"Is there anything else?"

The hall was deathly silent.

Those envoys who had been so aggressive just moments before now all lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.

The Japanese ambassador's face turned pale and then red, and finally he flicked his sleeve.

"Goodbye!"

He turned and left.

The ambassador of America snorted coldly and left with his entourage.

The envoys from other countries also left in disgrace.

Qin Yu watched their retreating figures and coldly scoffed.

"Does she really think she's some kind of VIP? Doesn't she know her own limitations?"

He shook his head, sat back down in his chair, and continued working on the documents, not taking the matter to heart at all.

Whether those envoys would be so angry they couldn't sleep after returning home was none of his concern.
