Chapter 172: Grandmaster 0170 Symbol

The martial gathering initiated by Fujikawa Ueno had been brought to a swift conclusion by a single move from a young man. But what was even more shocking was that this young man was very likely someone who had stepped into "that realm."

At this moment, no one was concerned about Fujikawa Ueno anymore. From the start, his using the guise of martial arts to invite friends for an exchange was seen by some as nothing more than a joke. How many true Martial Artists would attend and engage in serious discussion about martial arts with you?

It was, plainly put, a joke—a self-admiration of an ignorant person who overestimated himself, accompanied by some second-rate individuals kissing up to him.

As expected, the martial gathering became a laughingstock, yet it also shocked the world because a young prodigy suddenly emerged with strength that seemed very much like someone who had entered "that realm."

The so-called "that realm" was, in fact, the True Qi Realm.

Although Ye Qiu was young to have entered the True Qi Realm, in the martial community, a vast number of seasoned veterans had not yet crossed this threshold even after many years of practice.

The True Qi Realm was like an insurmountable gulf; many people would never attain it in their lifetimes, with only a fortunate few entering this new world in their martial journey.

From ancient times to the present, any master who reached the True Qi Realm became a famous great master, revered by future generations.

Reaching the True Qi Realm meant taking a step toward becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Martial Artists would evolve into Martial Arts Masters, possessing the ability to establish their own schools and could even eventually become Martial Arts Grandmasters—achieving the True Qi Realm was essential for this.

At Ye Qiu’s young age, it appeared that he possessed the strength of the True Qi Realm, which surprised everyone. Even the high-level Martial Artists who were just there for the spectacle couldn’t help but be moved.

At this point, the most frustrated person was Cui Zisong. He had thought his teacher would teach Ye Qiu a lesson, but the opposite happened: his teacher had been sent flying with a punch from Ye Qiu, which was hardly cause for Cui Zisong’s joy.

Cui Zisong still remembered what Fujikawa Ueno had said about Ye Qiu being like the tea in a cup, unable to escape the palm of the tea brewer. But thinking about it now made it seem laughable—Ye Qiu was no tea in a cup, but more like a fierce flood that could swallow a person in the blink of an eye.

When Cui Zisong thought about how he had previously challenged Ye Qiu and even sought him out actively, he couldn’t help but feel apprehensive. This fellow possessed such terrifying strength that even his teacher Fujikawa Ueno had fallen to him—did Cui Zisong really qualify to be his opponent?

Cui Zisong felt like a clown, having been prancing around in front of Ye Qiu, who had been profoundly discreet the entire time. No wonder the other party had defeated him in one move—the gap between them was more than just vast; it was so immense that Cui Zisong could never hope to catch up in his lifetime.

Cui Zisong’s feelings were complex, incredibly so. Should he continue to be Ye Qiu’s enemy?

After the martial gathering dispersed, Ye Qiu, the rising star who suddenly burst forth with brilliance enough to illuminate the entire galaxy, became a major topic of discussion in the martial community.

Because he was so young, yet he had already stepped into the True Qi Realm.

The Iron Sand Palm Grandmaster Ren Hesheng talked about Ye Qiu with Qian Zhen, Wang Hutang, and Li Tiezheng. He expected them to be shocked so that he could describe the scene of Ye Qiu’s display of power in great detail, but unfortunately, the three of them didn’t show much change in expression.

"Hey, you old fellows, this kid is in the True Qi Realm, and at such a young age. Aren’t you curious about him at all?" asked Ren Hesheng, bewildered.

Wang Hutang, who was straightforward, couldn’t help but laugh and said, "Are you talking about that young man named Ye Qiu?"

Ren Hesheng was taken aback. He thought he had hurried back quickly enough, but how did Wang Hutang already know of Ye Qiu’s existence?

Then, the Martial Arts Grandmaster Li Tiezheng laughed and said, "Actually, Qian Zhen has already mentioned this young man to us just now."

"What? You old guy knew about Ye Qiu already?" Ren Hesheng couldn’t help but feel deflated. He had planned to tease them into begging him to tell them, but now it seemed that his plan had failed.

"What exactly is going on?" Ren Hesheng instead asked Qian Zhen, why this old fellow had never mentioned to him before about a character like Ye Qiu, who was so young yet had reached the True Qi realm.

Qian Zhen explained: "In fact, I’ve never met this young man either. It was only because my disciple, Tang Yao, had crossed hands with him. After Tang Yao was defeated by him, he came back and told me about this person!"

"What? Even Tang Yao, that young fellow, is not his match?" Upon hearing this, Ren Hesheng was somewhat astonished. He had some understanding of Tang Yao’s strength. Though Tang Yao’s path was unconventional, his power was not inferior to those in the True Qi realm. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be famous alongside those few monstrous geniuses. Such strength, yet he was defeated by the young man we stumbled upon today?

"Actually, the True Qi realm is far from that young man’s true strength. His True Qi has already reached the stage where it obeys his will effortlessly!"

The shocking words of Qian Zhen were like a boulder smashing onto the calm spirit of Ren Hesheng, startling him so much that, despite his psychological preparedness, he had not imagined Ye Qiu to be at such a level.

After a long moment, Ren Hesheng seemed to regain his composure and exclaimed, "It seems I’m truly getting old. There’s so many rising talents, each more monstrously talented than the last. I thought your disciple was already outstanding, but this Ye Qiu’s martial arts talent is not the slightest bit inferior. At such a young age, he has already reached such heights, and he is no less formidable than those monstrous beings."

"Haha, I thought that the future master of the martial world would be one of those young fellows. Now it seems otherwise, as there’s an added variable. This Ye Qiu is even younger than them. If those guys knew of Ye Qiu’s true strength, would they all take action?" Ren Hesheng narrowed his eyes and muttered, "I really want to see how these guys would fare against each other."

Qian Zhen and the others shared Ren Hesheng’s sentiment. The martial world of their generation was aging, while the new martial world was rising like a blazing sun, gradually ascending and beginning to shine its dazzling light.

Lan Bing exchanged a few words with Ye Qiu and then left with her father Lan Xiaosheng.

Seeing his daughter’s expression, Lan Xiaosheng slowly said, "Is he the club expert you’ve mentioned to me before?"

Lan Bing nodded.

Lan Xiaosheng couldn’t help but realize he had heard of the name Ye Qiu before but the impression it made on him today was the greatest.

This young man had reached the True Qi realm at such a young age, leaving Lan Xiaosheng at a loss for words. After all, he, Lan Xiaosheng, had practiced martial arts for so many years, and only now did he barely touch the threshold of the True Qi realm, while the other had already achieved it so early.

Such a prodigious talent!

Lan Xiaosheng could only feel admiration, but Ye Qiu’s depth of strength was immeasurable, albeit he was much more humble in person, a trait that Lan Xiaosheng greatly appreciated.

"In the future, you should interact more with this Ye Qiu, it’ll be greatly beneficial for enhancing your strength," Lan Xiaosheng advised. Hearing her father’s words, Lan Bing nodded, her cheeks involuntarily blushing.

At this moment, within a dimly lit room, Fujikawa Ueno was repeatedly wiping his samurai sword.

He did not exhibit uncontrollable rage from being sent flying by Ye Qiu today. Instead, his expression carried a hint of a cold smirk. The white cloth in his hands gently wiped the blade, his attention focused, meticulous, as if caring for a treasured item.

"True Qi realm, eh? The more that appear, the better. This samurai sword, bestowed by the Emperor, shall be consecrated by your Chinese True Qi Martial Artists," Fujikawa Ueno suddenly burst into laughter. At that moment, his demeanor was completely different from what he had shown in front of others before, especially when he held that samurai sword. His whole being resembled a demon from the depths of a dark abyss.

True Qi realm!

The aura emanating from Fujikawa Ueno’s body at this time was in no way inferior to Ye Qiu’s!

This was Fujikawa Ueno’s true strength. His previous actions were merely preparations, a disguise for what was to come, deceiving everyone.
