High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Chapter 58 The Power of Qi and Blood?

Half an hour later, Zhang Ren looked at the row of people in front of him, his lips twitching slightly, and slowly said, "Guodong, you've all decided that you all want to practice martial arts, right?"

"That's right!"

Gao Yang was bursting with energy, as if he'd just had a meal. "Old Zhang, we all heard from Xiao Fan that after becoming a martial artist, your strength doubles! And if you reach that Body Tempering Level Two level, your strength triples!"

"Yeah, yeah! If each of us were as skilled as Xiao Fan, we could bring back even more prey."

"Old Zhang, we were so sorry we didn't practice when you offered to teach us before, but this time we're serious, please teach us!"

The people's eyes were sincere, and their tone was earnest.

Wang Ping and the others watching were stunned.

What's going on? Why did Uncle Guodong and the others suddenly come over to learn body-strengthening techniques from Uncle Zhang?

Does this mean we'll all line up and practice stances and boxing together from now on?

The scene was truly indescribable.

"Cough cough."

Zhang Ren glanced at Chen Fan without showing any emotion. He thought to himself, "Why is it that Guo Dong and the others suddenly acted as if they had made a pact? I don't believe it for a second if Chen Fan didn't come up with the idea!"

Chen Fan smiled at him, as if to say, "Uncle Zhang, keep it up."

Zhang Ren withdrew his gaze and focused on Chen Guodong and the others.

"Guodong, I'm naturally more than happy for you to learn martial arts, but let me make this clear from the start: becoming a martial artist isn't as simple as you imagine; it requires unwavering willpower."

Besides, you're all getting on in years. Compared to Wang Ping and the others, you'll have to put in far more effort to achieve this. Are you really prepared for that?"

After saying that, he narrowed his eyes, and an aura emanated from his body.

A group of middle-aged men suddenly felt the pressure.

However, firstly, they had already promised Chen Fan, and if they backed out now, where would they put their face? Secondly, Wang Ping and the others were watching from the sidelines.

"Zhang Ren, I'm ready."

Chen Guodong took a deep breath and said.

"Me too."

"I'm fine with it too."

"Then let's go."

Liu Yong and the others also chimed in, eager to speak.

"Alright, let's begin now. Stand in a row, one meter apart..." Zhang Ren stopped wasting time and started with the most basic stance, just like he had taught Chen Fan and the others.

Chen Fan nodded, thinking that when the people from Gu Family Village arrived, he would have them train together, especially that Gu Ze.

It has to be said that this guy's superpowers, combined with his martial arts skills, put even him under pressure.

If we can cultivate them, that would be wonderful.

"Brother Fan, that's impressive!"

At this moment, Wang Ping and the others gathered around and all gave him a thumbs up.

"You actually managed to persuade Uncle Guodong and the others to practice martial arts, impressive."

"It's not just impressive, it's incredibly visionary. Just imagine, if our hunting team were all martial artists, wouldn't we be able to conquer the world on the hunt?"

"That's right, that's right."

Chen Fan was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this. "It's not as simple as you think. Even for martial artists, hunting is not easy."

"what?"

The smiles on Wang Ping and the others' faces vanished instantly.

Even for martial artists, hunting is not easy.

You'll find out in time.

Chen Fan shook his head and said nothing more.

"By the way, Chen Fan, what about Gu Ze?"

Zhao Feng's eyes held a complex expression. "I heard you guys say that Gu Ze, who's about your age, can draw an 80-pound bow? Is that true?"

In an instant, Wang Ping and the others held their breath and stared intently at Chen Fan.

"Um."

Chen Fan nodded.

"..."

Zhao Feng and the others gasped in shock.

Uncle Zhang once said that Chen Fan is a martial arts genius that comes along only once in a century, and comparing yourself to him is just asking for trouble.

But this Gu Ze looks to be about the same age as them, so how can he draw such a heavy bow? Could he be a martial arts prodigy, one in a hundred years?

Are martial arts prodigies everywhere these days?

"His situation is a bit special."

Seeing this, Chen Fan couldn't bear it and said, "Don't compare yourselves to him, just focus on doing your own thing."

Zhao Feng and the others could only manage a helpless, bitter smile.

Sure enough, the other party was a martial arts prodigy!

They understood why Uncle Guodong had agreed to let Gu Family Village join so quickly; Gu Ze alone was enough.

"By the way, Chen Fan, I encountered some difficulties while practicing archery during the day. Could you teach me?"

Zhao Feng asked.

"Okay."

Chen Fan nodded, glanced at Zhang Ren, and then led the others to the side.

He originally wanted to ask Zhang Ren what stimulating qi and blood power was, but it seemed that the other party didn't have time right now, so he would wait a little longer.

As my father intended, the hunting team would not hunt tomorrow, but instead go out to welcome the people from Gujia Village. The day after tomorrow, everyone would set off together for Songjiabao to exchange food.

In this way, he will have an extra day to accumulate potential points. Before setting off, his cultivation level should ideally reach the Flesh Refining Realm. If that's not possible, he can increase his strength so that he can use a bow with a draw weight of 200 jin.

Compared to a bow with a draw weight of 100 jin, the range can be doubled, and the lethality is greater.

In addition, there is the "Meteor Arrow Technique" which is being completed. The progress is close to one-third, and it is estimated that it will be completed successfully by tomorrow morning.

With a stronger bow and better archery skills, the chances of success in this trip to Songjiabao are undoubtedly much greater.

After instructing Zhao Feng and the others on archery techniques, Chen Fan prepared to practice the [Basic Archery Techniques].

Although he has a lot of experience points, he doesn't intend to use them on these basic martial arts.

On the one hand, these basic martial arts consume a lot of experience points and offer limited improvement, but their proficiency increases quickly, making them perfect for practice.

Tai Chi, as an advanced martial art, has an upper limit and progress is slow, but the improvement is huge, so it is more worthwhile to add points to improve it.

Just as he was thinking this, a figure, limping, walked towards him.

Good evening, Uncle Zhang.

Chen Fan took the initiative to greet them.

Zhang Ren looked at him quietly.

Chen Fan gave an awkward smile, "I'm really sorry, Uncle Zhang, I should have discussed this with you beforehand, but I got back late today, so..."

"I don't mean to blame you."

Zhang Ren shook his head, turned around, and looked at the crowd who were persisting, saying, "It's good that you were able to persuade them, but I hope they are mentally prepared, because not everyone can become a martial artist as quickly as you."

Just like the Wei brothers, it took them two or three years to achieve this.

Of course, compared to now, food supplies are available, but he doesn't know how much faster.

"Take your time."

Chen Fan saw things clearly. "It's better to weave a net than to stand by the water and envy the fish. Slow progress is worse than doing nothing, right, Uncle Zhang?"

"hehe."

Zhang Ren smiled.

"By the way, Uncle Zhang, I have something I'd like to ask you. What does it mean to stimulate the power of qi and blood?" Chen Fan asked.

"What?!"

Zhang Ren turned around abruptly, startled, and exclaimed, "You can use the power of qi and blood now???"
