Chapter 193: 0151 Martial Arts Elixir (3k)

(ps: A previous mention of Twelve Arhats was a typo; it should be Eighteen Arhats and has all been corrected.)

Inside Shi Hu Villa.

[You have received 40 great merit from the school affairs office. Your current great merit balance is 220]

[Your account ending in 9527 has received a transfer of 1.785 million (note: Genius Contest prize money), current balance 8.305 million...]

Millionaire Lu Chenzhou turned off his cell phone.

"It’s really nice to have money."

Even if he used up four Bright God Potions every month, he could last over two years. In fact, two Bright God Potions a month were enough, any more would be a waste.

All other medicines were small change to him now.

Lu Chenzhou was now saving money, mainly for three goals:

First, to get himself a high-level protective suit in one go. In this competition, Li Kongkong, Yin Shishi, and others were tough mainly because they had top-notch equipment.

He, being poor, was at a disadvantage.

Second was to purchase a Void Blade model fist blade, which was an immediate need.

C9 alloy was a level stronger than C8 alloy. Mountain Lords would only use it during the Martial Artist stage, and it’s expected to be phased out after becoming a Martial Artist—he still had to give it back to his teacher.

Third was to prepare for purchasing great medicine after becoming a Martial Artist.

The so-called great medicine referred to drugs that could further transform a Martial Artist’s body and meet the daily needs of martial arts training. The body’s demand for energy and nutrients after breaking free from limitations couldn’t be satisfied by ordinary food or regular supplements.

Great medicine was expensive; even the cheapest ones were in the same category as the Bright God Potion.

The master was also a wealthy man, making several million easily from running the martial arts hall every year; after expanding over the past two years, he probably had tens of millions. But the bulk of his expenses went on buying great medicine. Therefore, Lu Chenzhou was grateful to him. The master wasn’t considered very rich among the Martial Artist community, yet he was willing to spend so much money on him.

...

A week later, October 1st.

Today marked the second anniversary of Lu Chenzhou’s awakening of the Martial Arts Tree. Looking at the Martial Arts Tree in his mind, the sapling had unknowingly grown to seven feet three inches tall.

"One day, it will become a towering tree."

He had this feeling.

The Martial Arts Tree itself was an extremely special talent.

After breakfast.

Lu Chenzhou went to the gatehouse to pick up a package, inside which was a protective suit, looking brand new. If one didn’t look closely, one wouldn’t notice any traces of repair.

"Not bad, well worth the 300,000 repair cost."

"Yin Shishi’s sword from Huangshan is really powerful—definitely high-quality merchandise. It can withstand pistol bullets, and yet it was torn slightly."

After getting dressed in the protective suit, Lu Chenzhou went to the regular class to find his senior martial sister. Today was a rest day, and the Three True Inheritors were going to visit their master, so he took the opportunity to give a class to the students.

...

Flying Swallow Martial Arts Hall.

Ji Xuantong was somewhat surprised to see the Three True Inheritors returning.

"Why have you all come back? You’re so busy with your studies."

Ji Feiyan looked helplessly at Lu Chenzhou:

"It was the junior brother who wanted to come."

Old Ji couldn’t be happier inside. He said earnestly:

"Chenzhou might have a chance to enter the top 500 of the Hidden Dragon List this year."

Lu Chenzhou said:

"I just got lucky, receiving a perfect evaluation in field training."

Ji Xuantong:

"Perfection is something you come across but cannot seek; it requires not just luck but more importantly, strength!"

The master and disciples chatted happily. Before leaving, Lu Chenzhou took a gift box from the car, handed it to Ji Xuantong, and solemnly said, "Master, I’ve made a bit of money recently, so I bought you a gift as a teacher appreciation. Please accept it."

Ji Xuantong took the gift box.

[The disciple shows gratitude to the master. A gift that is light but full of heart! Inside the Teacher Appreciation Gift Box are two boxes of "Foundation No.1" Martial Arts Elixir——from Martial Medicine Factory No.6.]

Ji Xuantong’s eyes twitched as he said:

"You... why waste the money?"

Foundation No.1.

This was precisely the great medicine he needed for cultivation at his current stage. One box costing 200,000, used sparingly, was enough for half a month, and this gift pack valued at 400,000, would last a month.

Shi Ruyu immediately said:

"Master, this is Chenzhou’s heart intent, please accept it... A disciple shouldn’t refuse the master’s kindness, and the master shouldn’t refuse the disciple’s gift. Chenzhou has indeed made quite a lot of money recently."

Ji Xuantong looked at Lu Chenzhou and said:

"I’ll accept this time, but in the future, there’s no need for such things. Firstly, I have money, and secondly, you’re at the time when you need money most. The most important thing is to improve yourself."

Seeing Ji Xuantong accept it, Shi Ruyu smiled cheerfully.

She also took her own prepared gift box from the car.

"Master, then you might as well accept mine as well..."

Ji Xuantong realized with a laugh:

"Alright, you all conspired together, didn’t you?"

Then he looked at Ji Feiyan.

Ji Feiyan’s face flushed with helplessness:

"I didn’t conspire... I already gave a gift on Father’s Day, and I’m broke now."

True to being a dear child, but too transparent. Old Ji felt a pang of inner bitterness.

He laughed and said:

"I knew you weren’t prepared."

Ji Feiyan whispered:

"That’s not true... I’m also very thoughtful, I just don’t have money recently."

After visiting his master, Lu Chenzhou left to give a class.

He had always wanted to repay the teacher’s kindness.

After consulting with his two senior martial sisters, they decided to buy some great medicine for the master.

Seeing the smile on his master’s face, his heart felt much comforted.

...

"Teacher Xiao Lu, you’ve arrived."

Lin Ruojun, now in her second year of junior high, had a stronger presence than the year before, gradually stepping out of the shadow of losing her mother.

Lu Chenzhou had saved both her and her father’s lives.

In her heart, she had come to regard Teacher Xiao Lu as her own elder brother. Her father often reminded her not to forget this debt of gratitude and to repay it when the opportunity arose.

"Perform the full set of punches for me, let’s see how you’ve progressed."

Lu Chenzhou remained as stern as ever, his expression serious.

"Okay."

Lin Ruojun completed the routine and seemed to have nearly mastered it.

"Not bad, aim for a Small Success next year and Great Success before high school. This way, you’ll stand a chance to pass the Martial Arts University’s special enrollment test and secure your place in the affiliate high school."

Looking at her current aptitude, it was unlikely for this girl to get into Pingjiang Martial Arts University.

But there was still hope for a Second Class ordinary Martial Arts University.

Lin Ruojun, greatly encouraged, said cheerfully,

"Alright, I’ll work hard."

Before long, Lin Bin also walked in.

He had been studying Basic Boxing for a year and was now proficient.

This talent of his was stronger than Lu Guoping’s. Objectively speaking, among the people around Lu Chenzhou, his father had the worst comprehension; he might truly be unsuited for martial arts training.

Lin Bin said,

"Teacher Xiao Lu, I just ran into Officer Chen on my way home. He said if you’re free after class, you might stop by the police station."

"Okay."

After class.

Lin Bin watched Lu Chenzhou prepare to leave and hesitated before asking,

"Teacher, the first term of classes is over, will you still come in the future?"

He had now sold off the Shi Hu Villa to rent a small house near the police station, with his only remaining wish in life being for his daughter to grow up safely and get into Martial Arts University.

Lu Chenzhou said,

"If you both need me, I can continue teaching, but my cultivation has improved, so my class fees have also long since increased to 1000 per session..."

Lin Bin quickly said with a smile,

"Money is not a problem! Ruojun and I will both continue with 100 more classes."

The purchase limit for classes on the Mortal Bone app was indeed 100 sessions.

This way, if the teacher raised his prices in the future, they could adjust in time.

Lu Chenzhou said,

"Thank you for your support, Mr. Lin. However, due to my studies, I might not be as readily available as other teachers. I hope you can understand."

Lin Bin replied with a smile,

"No worries, this is up to you, Teacher, whenever you feel like arranging it."

His deeper purpose in continuing the lessons was to maintain this teacher-student relationship with Lu Chenzhou. He believed it was the best decision he had made in his life. If not for having Teacher Xiao Lu as a private instructor, he and his daughter would no longer be alive.

Before Lu Chenzhou left, the Mortal Bone app sent another notification:

[Students Lin Bin and Lin Ruojun have each purchased 100 class sessions...]

After deducting the website’s share and income tax, Lu Chenzhou had another 144,000 in his account for the month. Although this sum wasn’t large, it was steady and could trickle in for a long time. For quite a while, he only needed to maintain these few customers. Teaching others to box was more of a relaxation for Lu Chenzhou.

For a genius, if they want to make big money, it’s still through competing.

...

The Shi Hu Police Station.

"Chief Chen, you wanted to see me."

Lu Chenzhou looked at the burly figure in front of him. Chen Zhen, having made significant contributions to the Heart Happiness Sect case, had now been promoted to deputy chief of the Shi Hu station.

"It’s been a long time, Chenzhou."

Chen Zhen could naturally sense the change in Lu Chenzhou’s aura, inwardly astonished; this young man’s strength now seemed to surpass that of Ninth Rank Chen Yuan.

Even among geniuses, there are gaps.

Chen Zhen led Lu Chenzhou to his office and said,

"I called for you this time mainly to invite you to assist us in an operation to take down a cult hideout. Compared to regular Martial Artist tasks, the difficulty is somewhat lower... However, due to the peculiar nature of the case, if you can complete it successfully, the police department has a judicial assistance bounty of 400,000 to 800,000, depending on your performance."

Ordinary tasks for Martial Artists start with a bounty of 500,000.

The amount indeed wasn’t small.

Lu Chenzhou pondered for a moment.

"I need to understand the difficulty of the task, and as a genius class student, unlike ordinary students, executing a judicial assistance task requires approval from the school."

The school’s organized practical training missions would be overseen by teachers.

For ordinary judicial assistance missions like this, there wouldn’t be such oversight.

Therefore, the school would be more cautious about allowing them to execute such tasks. They would agree only after teachers and the police had communicated to understand the case and confirmed that there was no significant risk.

Each genius was an invaluable treasure.

Chen Zhen said with a smile,

"Don’t worry, we’ll go through all the necessary procedures. Moreover, this case isn’t being handled by our Shi Hu station but by the Pingjiang branch. The person who wants your assistance on the case is someone else; I estimate you’ll be interested."

"Who?"

As Lu Chenzhou’s words fell, a tower-like figure pushed the door open. He was wearing sunglasses, and his height exceeding 1.9 meters was filled with explosive power; Black Tiger followed him like a shadow.

"Me."

Lu Chenzhou quickly stood up and greeted respectfully,

"Officer Lufang, good to see you."

The visitor was none other than Evil Tiger.

The name of the Ghost Head Evil Tiger was famous.

The reputation of some Martial Arts Grandmasters wasn’t even comparable to that of Lufang.

Partly because this man trained both internally and externally.

What’s more, Lufang was notoriously fierce, with many exploits to his name.

Lufang had Lu Chenzhou sit down and straightforwardly said,

"This time, the cult is called the Blue Lotus Society. According to intelligence, the sect has invented a new Evil Skill that can penetrate the defense of protective suits, but the ’membrane’ formed by Hard Qi Gong can effectively resist the Evil Skill. Hence, we need to gather a group of Hard Qi Gong Cultivators."
