Chapter 53: 0053 Evil Martial Arts

Liu Huan closed the door to Lu Chenzhou’s dorm room.

He whispered,

"I heard that to discipline the student from Magic City High School, our Dragon City principal took the surveillance video and confronted them for a long time. It almost escalated to involving both universities’ headquarters... In the end, it was only because Grandmaster Wang stepped in that Magic City High School backed down."

Wang Jidao? Lu Chenzhou had just met this Grandmaster tonight.

He hadn’t realized he had already secretly helped him once.

Grandmaster Wang’s favorability +1.

Lu Chenzhou sighed. This kind of matter was indeed difficult to prove. If the person insisted that he was unaware of ’inspiration striking,’ harbored no subjective malice, and merely wanted to greet and get to know the Tiger Fist practicing Lu Chenzhou, what could he say? At most, it was merely negligence.

Therefore, the Magic City side did not take the route of punishing him for "intentionally destroying opportunity." That would not just mean deducting three months’ worth of Martial Arts Supplements. If it were serious, it might even require expulsion. Damaging inspiration striking is a minor issue, but a flawed character is a major one.

The Top Martial University has a very low tolerance for malicious disposition among students. Otherwise, even if they might succeed in Martial Arts one day, if they ever do something that tarnishes the school’s reputation, the negative impact would far outweigh the positive. The thing Pingjiang Martial Arts University most regretted over the years was probably cultivating the Immortal Binding Hand, Tang Zheng, a villain of ten lifetimes.

Liu Huan said,

"I have nothing else, just a reminder for you to be careful in the future."

However, such inspiration striking incidents are once in a millennium, Liu Huan thought this might not happen again, as many people never experience it even once in their lifetimes.

"Thank you, class leader, you should rest early too, good night."

Lu Chenzhou sincerely thanked the class leader. He was indeed lucky; whether in the Martial Arts Academy or the Martial Arts School, his classmates were all harmonious and friendly, much better than he had anticipated. But beyond school, in society... the evil and darkness in man never disappeared.

"Ye Xiao..."

Lu Chenzhou opened the memo on his phone.

He set up a password-protected folder, naming it "Special Attention."

Then he recorded this person’s name.

This person, he would remember for a lifetime.

Whoever ruins my Martial Arts opportunity, I will never forgive!

...

May 2nd.

When he woke up in the morning, his body still felt incredibly sore.

"Alas, I shouldn’t overexert my body too lightly... Today I’ll just practice stance lightly, go through some punches to rest and recuperate, and train properly tomorrow."

Nevertheless, he would not regret it for breaking through the Dark Force.

That day.

Lu Chenzhou didn’t push himself too hard; he took this opportunity to thoroughly go over the compulsory courses he had fallen behind on. Martial Arts college entrance exams weren’t just about physical skills, but also included exams on knowledge related to Martial Arts. In today’s society, one couldn’t practice Martial Arts if they were illiterate.

The same went for college and even after graduation.

The path of Martial Arts was an ongoing process of learning.

After nurturing himself for a day, Lu Chenzhou also visited the school’s infirmary to buy some common Martial Arts Medicines to replenish his deficiencies, which were quite expensive. Just one bottle of "Qi Returning and Body Correcting Pills" cost 5000 yuan, containing only six pills, enough for just two days.

Fortunately, the medicinal effect was good.

The next day.

Lu Chenzhou felt his body had mostly recovered, supported by Martial Arts Supplements and having only slightly overtaxed himself, so he recovered quickly. If the strain had been severe, it might have led to permanent damage to his Martial Arts foundation, which would have been a loss not worth the cost.

In earlier times, some Evil Path Martial Arts used the method of infinitely stimulating the human body to achieve quick success. The advantage was rapid progression, far exceeding that of ordinary people, but it cost future potential for improvement, and it was guaranteed to shorten one’s life span and end badly.

Da Xia vehemently prohibited Evil Path Martial Arts.

Any university, Martial Arts Hall, or individual must not privately teach, once discovered, they would be listed on the blacklist at minimum, or at worst, become a "Black Knight" and be imprisoned in the Martial Prison.

The Martial Prison is specifically for detaining Black Knights.

Once inside, one’s Martial Arts career would be ruined.

Regarding Evil Martial Arts, they were also banned, with many unique copies destroyed; naturally, some might still be scattered around, but they wouldn’t make much impact.

During the public course period.

Lu Chenzhou came to the training ground.

The teachers at the school who mastered various Elephant Form Martial Arts were teaching everyone at the moment, a crowd surrounded each teacher, but Cha Chihu had the most followers, Tiger Form Martial Artist enthusiasts surpassed those of other factions by far.

Of course, the widely recognized strongest faction was... Dragon Form.

Dragon Form started off as First Class Martial Arts. The regular curriculum’s pace was to learn Second Class Martial Arts in junior year, advanced to First Class in senior year. First Class Martial Arts were powerful but difficult to enter, and if one’s realm was low, there was no need to learn it as it would be a waste of time. It was better to lay the foundation with Third Class Martial Arts and then gradually increase the difficulty. However, if one’s talent far surpassed their peers, special circumstances required special handling.

Cha Chihu demonstrated two Martial Arts routines of "Black Tiger Crossing the Mountain" completely on the wooden stakes for everyone, Lu Chenzhou watched attentively, looking for his own shortcomings.

In the end, he found that, just discussing Black Tiger Fist, although he was not as smooth as the teacher, he had no flaws at all; flawlessness was Great Success.

"Anyone who still doesn’t know or wants to demonstrate for me to give pointers, hurry up on the stakes, do not waste everyone’s time. If not, then I’ll leave."

Cha Chihu asked.

As a Martial Artist, he had plenty of his own cultivation homework.

He could not waste all his time teaching.

"I will!"

Liu Quanhai confidently jumped onto the stakes.

"Fellow classmates, excuse my performance."

He appeared humble, but inside, he was proud.

Liu Quanhai was also a transfer student, who began practicing Black Tiger Fist after a sudden realization at age fourteen, and now in under three years, he was already approaching Great Success; he had also successfully advanced from a beginner to proficient in "Mountain Crossing Body" in just over a month, clearly riding high.

Even alongside those with Intermediate Root Bone.

I, Liu Quanhai, am no less!

He fluidly completed one routine, steadily stepping off the stakes. Transferred students in the crowd could not help but cast envious glances his way. As a fellow Low Class Root Bone, their progress was far behind Liu Quanhai’s, causing them some worry about this year’s summer exams.

"Not bad, you have improved quite a bit since I first taught you."

The usually strict Cha Chihu tried to show a kind smile as he encouraged him.

Liu Quanhai clenched his fists and confidently smiled towards his classmates around:

"I did average, I hope to receive more advice from everyone in the future."

Though he spoke modestly, his heart swelled with some self-satisfaction. Being a Low Class Root bone and still achieving such results certainly meant he was a comprehension genius.

The classmates also politely applauded.

Afterward, quite a few more students went up to practice, all falling short of Liu Quanhai’s performance, and Cha Chihu advised them to practice more as hard work could make up for lack of talent.

Speaking of hard work, his gaze suddenly turned to Lu Chenzhou. This guy, who watched Cha Chihu’s demonstrations intently every day, could be deemed the hardest working student in high school, but it was unknown if he had improved lately.

"Lu Chenzhou, would you like to demonstrate?"

Lu Chenzhou was also hesitating among the crowd. He had already achieved Great Success without flaws, the next step was to refine his skills to Perfection; realistically, the teacher couldn’t offer much guidance.

But he thought for a moment and then said:

"Yes, teacher, I’ll give it a try."
