Yunxiao then asked, "Why do you say that?"

"......Feel."

Nan Xue gave such an outrageous response. He could actually vaguely feel the essence of this martial art, but because he had not studied it systematically, he was unable to express his ideas in terms of terminology. Therefore, he gave such an unreliable answer.

"I hope your feeling is correct." Yun Xiao did not comment, still acting as his riddle man. He finally looked at Ji Zhao and asked, "Ji Zhao, their opinions are completely different. What about you? Who do you support?"

Ji Zhao did not answer directly, but asked a seemingly strange question in return.

"Master Yun, were your movements just now standard?"

"......?" Hearing this, Yun Xiao was slightly startled, "What's wrong? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"It's just to make it easier for me to make some judgments. I'll explain the reasons later." Ji Zhao smiled and said, "Master Yun just needs to answer whether it is standard or not."

"......Whatever." Yun Xiao responded, "I am usually very casual, so my martial arts skills may not be standard, but I put a lot of thought into this move just now, so I think it's okay."

"Good." Ji Zhao responded, but frowned and fell into deep thought.

Guqu always talks a lot. Seeing Ji Zhao like this, she was very curious and had to find someone to talk to. But Nanxue was a taciturn person. She didn't dare to find Ji Bei and Yun Xiao, so she quietly approached Ji Tan and asked, "What's your brother selling?"

"Who knows." Ji Tan spread his hands, "I can't guess what he is thinking now."

While Gu Qu was puzzled, Ji Zhao spoke after pondering, "Yue Ming, Ya Zhi, Cang Feng, Lun Ming... No, it's not Lun Ming, it should be Feng Xue, and then Lian Hua..."

Watching Ji Zhao constantly reciting the names of the meridians, Gu Qu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously asked: "He...what is he doing?"

Ji Tan showed a look of disgust: "Of course I am reciting the names of the meridians... Didn't you remember any of them?"

"Of course I wrote it down!" Gu Qu replied confidently at first, and then said anxiously, "I mean, why did he suddenly recite the names of these meridians?!"

"I don't know either." Ji Tan took out a fan from somewhere and waved it leisurely. It was December, and these people who had no internal skills and couldn't resist the cold at all really didn't care about anything just to show off. "But, with my extremely smart head, I know that he is--"

Ji Bei at the side spoke calmly, interrupting Ji Tan's speech: "This is to reverse the route of Qi Wutong's inner breath."

Ji Tan showed an expression of disbelief and turned stiffly to look at Ji Bei, who had a calm expression on his face, without the slightest embarrassment.

After a moment, Ji Tan closed the fan in his hand with a snap.

"Hate it! I hate it when a big sister interrupts others!"

Volume 3: Taizong Luohe: Chapter 13: Coming to this World with a Mission

Leaving aside Ji Bei's sudden steal and Ji Tan's outburst, the words 'reversely deduce the route of Qi Wutong's internal energy' really shocked Gu Qu.

"Reverse the route of the internal energy..." Gu Qu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, a little unbelievable, "No, what are you talking about, how is this possible, can his eyes see through things, how is this possible?"

Because she was too flustered, she spoke without thinking and even said the same sentence twice.

"Do not......"

Ji Bei did not speak, but Yun Xiao at the side answered Gu Qu. There was no trace of the previous ease in his voice, but instead it seemed a bit labored, because admitting this matter was also a very difficult thing for him.

"It is possible..."

At this time, Ji Zhao had finished speaking. He closed his mouth and stood silently to the other side.

Yun Xiao spoke slowly: "A warrior with extraordinary comprehension or amazing martial arts accomplishment can understand the style of a martial art as long as they see its form. If a martial art does not contain too many changes and its style is relatively simple and pure, then they can figure out the meridians it needs to use... Of course, up to this point, we can only guess roughly. To be honest, I can do this, and Ji Bei can probably do 70% to 80% of it, but... Ji Zhao, you just asked me, 'Are my movements standard?'"

Ji Zhao said: "Yes."

Yun Xiao couldn't help but sighed, and squeezed out a few words from his throat: "This is what really makes me unbelievable... Guqu, Nanxue, listen carefully, martial arts are composed of form (movement posture) and spirit (the route of internal breath movement). There is no distinction between the two, and they cooperate with each other to achieve success - of course, this is the general direction. In some martial arts, there is still a clear priority, and you will understand this later."

"For example... Nanxue, use your right fist to punch my chest and abdomen, and use your internal energy. Don't think about anything. Just use the meridian that allows the internal energy to flow smoothly. Come on."

Nanxue nodded, stepped forward and punched, but Yunxiao caught her fist.

"Ji Bei, guess which meridian Nan Xue was walking on just now?"

Ji Bei hesitated for a moment and replied, "It should be Rui Chong."

Yunxiao looked at Nanxue, who nodded and said, "Senior Sister Ji is right."

"This is the coordination between form and spirit." Yun Xiao whispered, "Every move of a martial art is carefully selected. It must not only have an advantage in combat, but also be coordinated with the flow of internal energy, and more importantly, it must be in line with the five elements of the meridians and the meridian master. In other words, if you know the form of a martial art and can infer the style of this martial art, you can also use 'common sense' to figure out the spirit of this martial art to a certain extent, just like Ji Bei just now, who guessed the route of Nanxue's internal energy after a little thought."

"That's how Ji Zhao... figured out the route of Qi Wutong's inner breath." Yun Xiao sighed, "Do you understand, Gu Qu?"

Gu Qu was stunned for a moment, then nodded hesitantly: "I... roughly understand, what I mean is that Brother Ji's martial arts literacy is very high, right?"

"No... You don't understand at all." Yun Xiao whispered, "Come on, fight back."

"Fight...fight what?"

"Qi Wutong." Yun Xiao said succinctly, "You don't need to use your internal energy, just practice a set of forms."

"Huh?" Gu Qu was very embarrassed. "Master Yun, what are you talking about? You have been going too far since just now. You recited the meridians of the human body and asked me to remember the five elements. I remembered a few percent of it. Now you ask me to perform a set or something... Your movements were so fast just now, I have forgotten everything a long time ago!"

"That's right." Yun Xiao said, "You have completely forgotten everything...but he has remembered it all."

Gu Qu was stunned: "No, wait, let me think about it..."

Yunxiao didn't wait for her, because he knew that Guqu couldn't figure it out. He turned to look at Ji Zhao and said in a low voice: "In order to maintain the standard of the movements and show the core of the martial arts, I didn't deliberately slow down. That was not the speed of teaching at all. However, you remembered it all... Not only did you remember it, you also deduced the route of the internal breath of this martial arts in just a few dozen breaths, and there was only one mistake..."

Yun Xiao's eyebrows were almost twisted into one. "If this martial art wasn't created by me not long ago, I would have thought that Ji Bei had given you a special treatment. She is selfless and dedicated to her work, and I shouldn't have said that about her, but this matter is really outrageous... I think it's too corny to praise students in person, and I even feel a little disgusted, but I still want to say it today. If I don't say it, I always feel uncomfortable."

He paused and said in a deep voice:

"Ji Zhao, your eyesight, memory, martial arts literacy, speed of thinking, and even your grasp of form and spirit are the best I have ever seen in my life... You must not waste your time and squander your talent."

Ji Bei, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment: "Don't waste your time... I can't believe that this is what you, Master Yun, said."

Yun Xiao shook his head and returned to his usual lazy look: "Because everyone is an idiot, I am an idiot, you are an idiot too. It doesn't matter what the life of an idiot is, but geniuses are different. Just like Pavilion Master, people like them come to this world with a mission."

"Although you have accused yourself of this, I cannot accept the identity of a fool."

"It doesn't matter." Yun Xiao sighed, "Anyway, I believe you have also felt it. This martial art is not for you to learn, but to test your sensitivity to martial arts... If I say it is your comprehension, it may be a bit too much. It is not yet that broad. But if you really count it, it is actually about the same. Now I have a rough idea in my mind."

Gu Qu, who was standing at the side, had just come back to his senses from Ji Zhao's incident. Hearing this, he subconsciously asked, "Then Master Yun, who is right, me or Brother Nan?"

"..."

When facing Gu Qu before, Yun Xiao could be considered calm and composed. But now, the other party's question really broke his defense. His whole face became ferocious. It took him several seconds to suppress it. He said in a rough voice:

"How about... guess?"

"Let me guess?" Gu Qu laughed, "Master Yun, you are such a fool. If you let me guess, then I will definitely guess that I am right... Master Yun, why do you look so bad? That... am I wrong?"

"Heh...hehe."

Volume 3: Taizong Luohe: Chapter 14: Three Good News and Three Bad News

The morning class ended quickly, and in the afternoon, Yunxiao conducted a simple bone test on everyone... This time the situation was really complicated. He didn't say much, but just waved his hand to indicate that today's class was over.

Ji Zhao knew it in his heart. His bones were not just bad, especially compared with the two next to him.

High-level root bones are very rare.

A country guy like Liu Wei, who had never received any systematic education, relied on his level 5 aptitude to practice some crude internal skills, and ended up becoming one of the six cavalrymen under Duke Shengwu, and finally a top-notch master in the Qingzhou martial arts world.

Not to mention Nanxue, whose comprehension and physique are both at level 6, but Guqu is even better... God closed a window for her and opened all the doors!

That bone...tsk tsk.

[“I can only hope for a medicinal bath to cleanse my marrow…”]

------

"Yunxiao."

Yunxiao finished his meal in the cafeteria and was about to leave when a cold female voice sounded behind him. The person turned around and it was Mo Yu.

"The Pavilion Master is back... You are the one leading those three people today. Go and make a report to the Pavilion Master."

"Me again?" Yun Xiao responded almost instinctively, wanting to throw the task to someone else. But as soon as he said it, he realized that he was the most suitable person to do it, so he could only agree to the task obediently while Mo Yu looked at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about again?"

Arriving at the Zhengde Hall at the top, Yunxiao knocked on the door.

"Boss, it's me. Are you available?"

It's hard to change Yunxiao's underworld habits. When no one is around, he will still say some unpresentable words.

"It's Yunxiao... just come in."

After getting permission, Yunxiao pushed the door open and walked in. Standing inside the door was a tall male swordsman in a white robe. He had a handsome face and a refined temperament. Judging from his age, he was no more than twenty-seven or twenty-eight. If you only look at his appearance, who would have thought that this person was the contemporary Luohe Pavilion Master, the famous Liu Hanying!

Yunxiao pushed the door open and walked in, looking Liu Hanying up and down rudely.

Liu Hanying smiled helplessly and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"See if you were injured by Tang Cheng." Yun Xiao said lazily, "If he knows some poisonous skills and poisons you to death, then I can quit my job."

"Tang Cheng... This man's martial arts skills are indeed not bad. He spent a lot of effort to fight the enemy this time. But even if I don't go, he can't cause any trouble. As for the court..."

Liu Hanying said, shook her head, and then looked at Yunxiao: "Come to think of it, Yunxiao, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Well... there are four new students in Luohe Pavilion."

"Oh?"

"Two of them are Ji Bei's brother and sister. Her hometown was attacked by the black cavalry led by Liu Wei. Although they won in the end, they felt that their training was not enough, so they planned to return to the pavilion to practice... The brother is Ji Zhao, and he is interested in martial arts. The sister Ji Tan is more interested in medicine, but in my opinion, she... Never mind, Pavilion Master, you will know when you see her later."

Liu Hanying nodded: "Where are the other two?"

"A man and a woman, the woman is dressed as a man...Han Gongqiu brought her from that man. She is his daughter, let's call her Guqu."

"Ah."

"He's a man. I brought him out after I cleaned Liang Chong's magic cave. He's the only survivor."

"Star Scripture?"

"Yes."

"how long."

"Ten years!" Yun Xiao paused, then added, "He is fifteen years old now!"

Liu Hanying was startled at first, then shook her head gently: "It's also a hard life..."

"There is always hope." Yun Xiao shook his head. "There are too many people with miserable lives in this world. He is considered lucky... Also, today, I conducted a simple test of their aptitude and comprehension, and got three good news and three bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Liu Hanying knew that Yunxiao was a playful person, so she cooperated with him and smiled helplessly, "Well, let me tell you the good news first."

"Well, the first good news." Yun Xiao said, "That Nan Xue, the reason why he was able to survive was not because of anything else, but because this person has excellent aptitude and comprehension, which is rare in the world. The old demon Nangong really couldn't bear to part with such a good seedling, so he didn't kill him."

"I guessed the first bad news." Liu Hanying said, "He has been practicing the Star Scripture for ten years. I'm afraid he won't have much life left... Fortunately, he can be saved. Is this 'can be saved' the second good news?"

"Of course this doesn't count."

"So, what's the second good news?"

"That Gu Qu... her physique is excellent. This afternoon, I took them to open up their meridians and practice the Qi Sense Sutra. Even Nan Xue, who has such a physique, took two hours, but she was able to release her internal energy after only practicing for half an incense stick!"

This statement is really shocking. To release the internal energy externally requires a certain basic amount of energy. For an ordinary martial artist, without three or two days of hard practice, how can he release the internal energy externally? Half an incense stick...?

This was too scary, but Liu Hanying didn't dare to be happy too soon, and asked: "What's the bad news?"

Yun Xiao, who was beaming with joy just a second ago, suddenly frowned: "Ji Bei and I explained the Gan Qi Jing to her face to face...it took her a full hour to understand it! She memorized those acupuncture points over and over again for two incense sticks. She is simply as stupid as a pig! Even if I find an illiterate peasant woman to let Ji Bei teach me, I can never make her so angry that she slams the table on the spot!"

"this......"

Liu Hanying knew Ji Bei's temper. To make her so angry, it must be...

The man collected his thoughts and asked:

"So, what about the third good news?"

"The third good news is about Ji Zhao." Yun Xiao said seriously, "He is a genius, a real genius. He can directly deduce the route of my internal energy flow after just looking at the shape of my newly created martial arts, and he is basically correct. He can recite the Qi Sense Sutra by heart after just a few glances, and can easily grasp the essence of it. His sensitivity to martial arts is like the reincarnation of Lord Wu An!"

Liu Hanying smiled helplessly and said, "Although there is no basis for this, I think I should have guessed what the next bad news will be..."

Yun Xiao sighed: "God is jealous of talents... His physique is hard to describe. Anyway... Boss, just understand what I mean."

"I find it interesting." Liu Hanying smiled. "Look at these three people. Some have good bones but poor comprehension, some have good comprehension but poor bones, and some are both good. Actually, there is nothing wrong with saying that both are poor. These three are all geniuses. They entered the cabinet together and complement each other so well. It is really interesting. It really makes people feel that everything in the world is like this. There is a destiny in everything..."

Volume 3: Taizong Luohe: Chapter 15: Entering the Cabinet

The next morning, including Ji Bei who returned to the pavilion, a group of five people were called to Zhengde Hall, where Liu Hanying was waiting for them.

"Pavilion Master."

Luohe Pavilion is a Jianghu organization with a complex personnel structure, so there are not too many complicated rules. When Ji Bei saw Liu Hanying, he just clasped his fists and greeted her.

Liu Hanying put down the paper and pen, smiled at Ji Bei first, and then cast her eyes on the crowd: "I have heard about you all from Master Yun... Let me confirm here, the four of you all want to join Luohe Pavilion, right?"

The four of them should naturally be.

"Don't agree too soon." Liu Hanying shook her head. "I don't know if Master Yun or Ji Bei have told you that Luohe Pavilion is not an ordinary sect. It is not a place where you can practice martial arts with peace of mind after paying money. At the beginning, Wu'an Duke Wei Huo and other heroes in the martial arts world swore an oath by Luohe River and later established this pavilion in order to prevent disputes among the martial arts world. Therefore, Luohe Pavilion barely plays the role of half of the 'imperial court' in the martial arts world... Over the past hundreds of years, Luohe Pavilion has also gone astray and made many people in the martial arts world dislike it, but we still have to do this."
