Chapter 67: 0067 Martial Arts Chip

Dragon City High School.

After a night of turmoil, Lu Chenzhou returned to his dormitory. The police chose not to publicize the case to prevent Lu from being targeted by dark forces for revenge, thus not affecting his future life.

Lu Chenzhou looked at his purplish-blue arms and applied the ointment Yuan Zheng had picked up for him from the medical room—it was "Black Jade No. 1" ointment, also a product of Martial Medicine Factory No.6. His injuries were not severe, just bruises from a fall, which would heal in a week. The price was also not expensive, he offered Yuan Zheng money, but Yuan Zheng refused, saying the school would reimburse it.

The next day.

May 22.

Lu Chenzhou, as usual, got up before dawn. He went to Tiger Garden, and when Tiger Brother saw Lu Chenzhou, his tiger eyes stared at him; it felt the "monkey" was becoming more and more "tiger."

Previously it was just in appearance, but now even the aura was somewhat similar.

This aura, was "killing aura"!

Clearly, the monkey must have tasted meat.

A tiger that has eaten humans has a completely different aura than ordinary tigers.

Lu Chenzhou observed Black Tiger, emptied everything else from his mind, focused only on those eyes brimming with killing aura, and began practicing Black Tiger Fist. The more he practiced, the smoother and fuller of killing aura it became. He immersed himself in last night’s killing state again, then the leaves of the Black Tiger Fist began to twinkle once more. After shedding blood, Tiger Form Fist was no longer just a mere fist move.

"Inspiration strikes the prepared mind, results come with half the effort!"

Just like that, the state came back... Obviously, killing someone significantly increased the likelihood of Tiger Form Fist achieving inspirational state.

"It’s here!"

After a month, he finally entered that state again. If others knew he reached the inspirational state four times in two months, they would definitely urge Lu Chenzhou to buy a lottery ticket.

"Black Tiger Pouncing Deer!"

"Black Tiger Overlooking Abyss!"

"Black Tiger Throws Bull!"

One move after another unleashed by Lu Chenzhou, each seemed as if meant to kill, distinctly different from the previous temperament of Black Tiger Fist. After a vigorous two hours, the state quietly vanished without trace.

Lu Chenzhou looked towards the Martial Arts Tree.

"Black Tiger Fist: Great Success (43%)"

"Who would have thought killing could have such benefits, spared half a month of bitter training, it will soon blossom..."

Lu Chenzhou looked forward to the divine seed unique to Black Tiger Fist, even the lowest level "No Regrets" divine seed brought many benefits, the new divine seed will certainly be extraordinary.

...

At the summit of Fangshan.

On a rugged strange rock, Wang Jidao’s pores opened and closed, with the surrounding fog scattering and surging with his breath, quite shocking.

"Truly, this youth’s inner temperament changed after killing someone. Although I do not practice Tiger Form Fist, if one wants to cultivate this method, lacking the experience of killing someone always feels something’s missing. After killing, calm and composed, like a fierce tiger, not only in form, but the aura and spirit are much more alike. This might be the reason for his recent inspiration."

...

During breakfast, Lu Chenzhou browsed the news.

"Last night’s incident indeed wasn’t reported."

Suddenly, a text notification sounded on his mobile phone.

"Your account ending in 9527 has received a transfer of 100,000 Yuan from Su City Finance Department, current balance 230,000 Yuan. (Note: Judicial Assistance Reward)"

"My bonus has arrived."

He immediately went to the medical room and exchanged it for 8 boxes of Qi Replenishing Agent.

Money, keeping some for emergencies is enough.

...

Pingjiang Police Station.

Lufang glanced at his daughter’s message on the phone, looked at the files on his desk. Among the files filled with Virtual Disaster, Black Calamity, and Evil Calamity cases, there was one freshly concluded—the case of the Black Knight attacking a high school student who fought back and killed the assailant.

That this case was concluded so swiftly was also due to him; otherwise, just the various approval procedures would take a long time, too delaying for a student’s normal martial arts training.

"Lu Chenzhou... the young man who last went to validate his credentials at the Bureau of Virtual Calamity, it seems to be him. Quite a promising candidate for Tiger Form. He almost killed a veteran employee during the assessment, and now he has counter-killed a Black Knight. Not bad, those practicing Tiger Form must experience the taste of flesh."

Generally speaking, even if there’s usually no chance to kill, the college departments of the top Martial Arts Universities also create conditions for actual combat training, allowing Tiger Form Fist to taste blood, such as cooperating with police to destroy cult hideouts and killing a few people is the most normal thing.

Lufang had killed a criminal attempting to violate him since middle school.

He felt that this young man’s character was somewhat similar to his own.

Some people just deserve to die!

...

In the blink of an eye, it was already June 1.

Because of the killing.

In recent times, homeroom teacher Yu Zheng had talked to Lu Chenzhou a few times, and the school had also invited a specialized psychologist to counsel Lu Chenzhou. This meticulous care deepened Lu Chenzhou’s approval of Dragon City Martial Arts University.

Inside the Martial Arts Room.

Cha Chihu was giving Lu Chenzhou special training again.

"Roar it out! Didn’t you eat?! Don’t feel embarrassed, roaring can help you simulate the aura of a Fierce Tiger, entering the state faster. You can also adjust your breathing through roaring during combat, enhancing your Inner Qi and increasing your attack power."

After Cha Chihu finished speaking, he roared fiercely, his expression ferocious.

Lu Chenzhou completely let himself go, imagining every move of Brother Tiger in the zoo. At times his Tiger Claws lashed out, his roaring voice thundering through the mountains; at other times, his body curved like a bow, his deep growls even more terrifying and fierce. He dodged around the stakes, his fists and claws sending the incoming wooden posts flying, continuously pounding and sending wood chips flying.

After five classes, Lu Chenzhou was utterly exhausted.

"Rest, we’ll train for another three hours in the afternoon."

Cha Chihu agreed to gift Lu Chenzhou three more classes.

"Thank you, Teacher."

Lu Chenzhou looked at his calloused and scarred hands, covered with a layer of keratin, rough to the touch. He took a wooden splinter and lightly drew it across, leaving only a white mark.

"Tiger Supreme Fist truly deserves its reputation as a formidable Second-Class martial art. I didn’t even deliberately train the Iron Sand Palm, yet I’ve also developed a pair of invincible Iron Palms."

These calluses and keratin were Lu Chenzhou’s natural armor.

"They say that Shaolin Cross Training is the best under the heavens. Later on, I could choose a suitable Shaolin Hard Qigong to train and maybe buy a civilian lightweight bulletproof vest so that I can protect my vital areas like my head from ordinary criminals."

This unwarranted disaster made Lu Chenzhou cherish his life even more. Until he broke free from his constraints, the human flesh was still too frail against a steel body.

Yu Zheng mentioned that the Da Xia military and the Silver Eagle Federation were already using a certain "Martial Arts Chip Prosthetics Implantation Technology" at a basic level. This martial art level was only equivalent to "Mastery" in traditional Martial Arts and couldn’t reach higher realms. But paired with a steel body, even simple strikes could be deadly. Technology was changing Martial Arts.

Stacking armor was a must!

Technology and Martial Arts went hand in hand.

In any case, the situation that happened last time must never occur again.

Once injured, it might delay Martial Arts Cultivation.

...

After eating.

Lu Chenzhou followed Cha Chihu for another three hours of Tiger Supreme Fist training, Today was a rest day; he didn’t have to go to classes and his parents also told him not to visit them at home to avoid repeating that night’s incident.

At five in the afternoon, Cha Chihu smiled and said:

"Not bad, you’ve made rapid progress in this half a month. At your current pace, you’ll master Tiger Supreme Fist this month. After you master Tiger Supreme Fist, your skills won’t be inferior to the Great Success Level of Black Tiger Fist.

However, Black Tiger Fist still needs to be practiced. As the most basic Tiger Form, it’s infinitely beneficial for your future study of various advanced Martial Arts.

Even if Martial Art is perfected, it should occasionally be practiced to constantly maintain your Martial Sense and touch. We are human, not gods. Both our brains and muscle memory gradually fade over time."

Lu Chenzhou took the lesson to heart and bid farewell to his teacher.

On his way back to the dining hall, he pondered in his heart:

"It’s been a long time since I practiced Basic Boxing, yet I don’t feel any forgetfulness or unfamiliarity, perhaps this is also thanks to the Martial Arts Tree."

A certificate forever, never forgotten!
