Chapter 118: 0108 Golden Jade Ointment

"Once the Blood Bodhisattva is refined, I, the Squad Leader, will strangle you all."

Chen Yongjing, as the Squad Leader of the Heart Happiness Sect, held a high and influential position.

Though he had several Incense Masters and Hall Masters under his command, all of whom boasted strengths surpassing that of a Martial Artist, only the youngsters of Martial Bone Dao Embryo caliber were worthy of mobilizing the precious Incense Masters to assassinate in stealth. His mission was to snuff out those non-Martial Artists with talent at the lowest possible cost, thereby weakening the strength of the Da Xia Martial Artists community from multiple angles.

Currently, those little geniuses from Fangshan weren’t worth the effort.

The organization was too weak to confront Da Xia head-on. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be skulking in the shadows, engaging in petty theft and minor disturbances; they would have revolted and changed the heavens long ago.

Their only advantage was hiding in the dark places abroad, while also maintaining contact with the deities of the Void Realm, allowing them to wield Extraordinary Techniques endowed with supernatural powers.

Last year, he had also requested an ace sniper to attempt to infiltrate Fangshan and assassinate Chen Yuan. However, Master Wang caught him on the spot. Fortunately, Chen Yongjing had been careful and cautious, employing the assassin through the underground task announcements of the Black Knight organization, which prevented his own exposure.

Since then, he had given up on using people for assassinations.

Only by employing Void Things did he have the most reliable means of assassination.

If Void Things were caught, they couldn’t betray him; even with the skills of those physically adept Martial Artists, no Grandmaster could hope to trace back to him through a Void Thing.

...

Nightfall descended.

Outside of the Beautiful Life Hospital.

A luxury car slowly approached the woman ahead, coming to a stop beside the beauty. Chen Zhen, dressed in plain clothes and wearing sunglasses, dangled a cigar from his lips and asked with a smile,

"Beautiful lady, aren’t you afraid to walk alone at night as darkness falls? Aren’t you afraid of bumping into Void Things?"

The beauty was the female patient who had just left the hospital. She looked at the handsome Chen Zhen and the car worth at least three million, flipped her hair confidently, and smiled,

"Handsome, would you like to give me a lift?"

Chen Zhen blew out a smoke circle.

"It would be my pleasure."

Chen Zhen had always been suspicious of Chen Yongjing and periodically came here incognito to collect evidence, hoping to find clues through these female patients.

Chen Yuan’s mother had also died at the hands of the Cult, and Chen Yuan’s desire to join Dragon and Tiger Academy was also spurred by word that the school had developed True Skill Martial Arts specifically effective against Cults.

Father and son had never given up their pursuit of revenge.

...

December 3, Stone Lake, cold winds in waves.

Dragon City Martial Arts University’s grand opening ceremony was officially held in the auditorium. The four Great Grandmasters – Zhen Jiu Shan, Jue Tian Diao, Ji Shui Bao, and Jing Long Wang – finally made their appearance. Their furnace-like vast Qi-Blood dissipated the wintry chill, stirring the passion of the students.

Shi Ruyu also felt a surge of excitement.

Pingjiang Martial Arts University certainly had several Grandmasters, but they were younger Grandmasters lured with high fees from other schools. This was her first time witnessing Heavenly List Grandmasters.

Each one had an extraordinary presence.

Classmates from Dragon City High School who had come to join the excitement were also thrilled.

"It’s worth it, seeing four Grandmasters in person at once."

"Martial Arts Grandmaster, the ultimate dream of many."

In the back row, Lu Chenzhou was also admiring the grandeur of the Grandmasters.

He once thought Martial Artists were unattainably high.

Now... he too was confident of reaching the status of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

After the ceremony ended, Lu Chenzhou greeted Shi Ruyu and then rushed to the medical room of Dragon City Martial Arts University. As a student of the affiliated high school, he was eligible to purchase Medicine there. He needed to convert his savings of over three million into strength.

The high school infirmary stocked only basic Medicines. The variety in the Martial Arts University’s medical room was much more comprehensive. The physician in charge of dispensing Medicines was a retired Martial Artist of advanced years.

He scrutinized Lu Chenzhou in his high school training clothes.

"Young man, buying medicines?"

"Yes, senior."

"You’ll find it cheaper at the high school medical room."

"They don’t have the Medicines that I want."

"What are you looking for?"

"I’d like 2 boxes of Bright God No. 1, and 4 boxes of Golden Jade Ointment."

"That’s going to cost quite a bit of money."

"I have money."

The old man had someone go to the pharmacy to find the medicine.

Before long, he handed a medicine bag to Lu Chenzhou.

"Check it, the total comes to 240,000."

Lu Chenzhou opened the bag, the Bright God No. 1 was fine.

The Golden Jade Ointment was recommended by Wang Gang; its effects were better than the Black Jade series, and it could nourish the epidermis to have a handsome golden luster. The only downside was that it was expensive.

These medicines would suffice for his Inner Boxing and cross-training cultivation for a month. Even ordinary wealthy families wouldn’t dare spend this way. But for martial arts, Lu Chenzhou wasn’t afraid to spend money!

"Thank you, senior."

The old man watched Lu Chenzhou’s departing figure, shaking his head and sighing:

"Another young fellow addicted to cross-training."

...

Dragon City High School.

In the bedroom, Lu Chenzhou was practicing Pile Skill with cross-training. Wang Gang still had more than a month before the winter exams and was busy sprinting, unable to come every day to practice cross-training with Lu Chenzhou.

[Arhat Skill: Mastery (39%) → Mastery (40%)]

A prompt sounded in his mind.

Lu Chenzhou stopped the machine and paused his cross-training lesson.

Hard Qigong was something he was learning on the side. Reaching mastery, being able to increase proficiency by 1% per day was enough; Lu Chenzhou didn’t plan to waste more time on it. Pile Skill and Fist Technique were the foundation. Additionally, Golden Jade Ointment couldn’t directly accelerate the training of Hard Qigong, but it could speed up the healing of Lu Chenzhou’s body, stimulating his physical strength to improve faster.

With faster recovery, he could increase the time spent on cross-training.

This, in turn, indirectly sped up his Hard Qigong cultivation.

He took out a pale gold bottle, the rich scent of the medicine spreading out. Lu Chenzhou poured out some of the powder, mixed it with water to make an ointment, and applied it evenly.

"Hiss..."

The wound was burning painfully, as if the skin that had just been scalded was soaked in hot salt water again. Lu Chenzhou clenched his teeth tightly, sweat pouring down his face.

"It’s too painful!"

He suddenly realized, Wang Gang was pretty formidable after all.

The guy’s love for Hard Qigong was comparable to Hong Fu’s love for the tiger.

Hard Qigong plus Heavenly Pile was pure torture.

Normal people simply couldn’t cultivate both at the same time.

Fortunately, Lu Chenzhou wasn’t normal.

As long as he could grow stronger, pain and fatigue meant nothing to him.

...

The next day.

After Heavenly Pile Class, Yu Zheng called Lu Chenzhou to his office.

He thought for a moment and said,

"Chenzhou, there’s something you need to know. Generally speaking, if you are graded Class A after the winter exam on January 10th, you could proceed with the admission procedures for Dragon City Martial Arts University. However, I suggest you postpone enrollment by about twenty days..."

Lu Chenzhou thought of something and asked,

"Is it because of the Fangshan Martial Arts Tournament?"

Yu Zheng smiled and said,

"The Fangshan Martial Arts Tournament is on January 30th. With your current strength, unless you’re particularly unlucky and get matched with a Seventh Rank competitor right away, it’s almost certain you’ll make it into the top hundred and claim the guaranteed reward of 200,000. For you, that’s not a small sum.

If you perform normally, it’s not difficult for you to enter the top thirty and claim a reward of 500,000. If you’re really lucky, there’s a chance of getting into the top twelve to win a million. With your age and strength, going to a competitive university teeming with experts, earning another million would be difficult, don’t forget the investment from Diaoist Science and Technology; just 2 million over four years."

Yu Zheng made sense.

Lu Chenzhou had been hesitating about this as well.
