Helpers Receive More Help: Ye Liuyun's overtures

Killing Martial Arts School

That night

In the main house,

The young man, who usually wore shorts and a braided girl, stood obediently in the center of the lobby.

Seated in the main chair was an old man with white hair and beard, a thick white beard, and a still tall stature.

At this moment, he is holding the list of donations for today, carefully checking the numbers and names on it.

"Xiao Meng and Xiao Han, the disciples who voluntarily donated money here will receive three extra packets of medicinal bath and one dose of Qi and Blood Pill next month. Those who bought extra packets of medicinal bath will also receive an extra dose."

"Yes, Master."

A young man named Meng Qifeng stepped forward and agreed.

The girl with braided pigtails named Meng Zi noted it down.

"Also, don't do this again. Most of the martial arts school's disciples don't have much money. Even if we only encourage those who can afford it, what happens if they donate money and buy more medicine? Will those who can't afford it follow suit? And if they don't, won't they be gossiped about or ostracized?"

"These kinds of things are most easily done wrong with good intentions. Our martial arts school should just do what it can, and remember that!"

Seeing that their master's tone was getting increasingly harsh, the brother and sister broke out in a cold sweat and quickly agreed.

Fortunately, Zhang Fuhu Zhang Wusheng did not delve too deeply into the matter and simply continued looking at the list.

Just when it seemed the matter was over,

The brother and sister heard a "Huh?" and then saw their master suddenly sit up straight, his tiger-like eyes fixed on a spot on the list, and say:

"How come Xiao Yu has donated five hundred taels, more than everyone else combined? What happened? Did he rush into something and take the wrong path?"

"Reporting to Master, Junior Brother Yu has been teaching at the martial arts school these past few days and has never gone out. As for the five hundred taels of donation, he said that someone suddenly threw the silver into his room last night."

Meng Qifeng quickly replied.

Old Master Zhang narrowed his eyes, but didn't reveal anything, only saying "Oh".

"It seems this kid is lucky to have run into a chivalrous person who doesn't seek fame."

Under the cover of the roster, the old man's eyes suddenly brightened considerably as he scanned the list.

At the same time, he spoke calmly:

"By the way, Xiao Yu just graduated from his apprenticeship. How's his teaching going? He's so honest and straightforward; I hope he doesn't cause any trouble."

"A few days ago, a rich young master who had returned from studying abroad came to learn martial arts. Because my junior brother taught him alone, I heard that the young master had excellent talent and could even rival my senior brother. He quickly mastered the basics."

"After hearing about the martial arts school's porridge distribution today, he even bought a month's supply of medicinal baths and Qi-blood elixirs. His name is... his name is Li Xijun."

As soon as Meng Qifeng finished speaking, Zhang Fuhu, who was in the main seat, quickly identified the names on the list.

The shrewd and experienced martial saint instantly guessed what was going on.

On the surface, he didn't show anything, but simply tossed the booklet to the two siblings and told them to go back to bed early so they could buy grain and distribute porridge the next day.

But deep down, he already had a plan:

"Li Xijun...a wealthy young master who studied martial arts after returning from studying abroad..."

"Ha, Xiao Yu is just making up that nonsense."

"If someone could actually sneak into my Killing Body Martial Arts School in the middle of the night and throw money in, wouldn't all my training as a martial arts saint have been for nothing?"

"However, he's quite lucky to have met such a kind person, and his aptitude for martial arts is also quite good..."

"The foreigners on the western continent are getting restless... Let's observe for a few more days."

"If he is truly a talented and gifted individual, a martial arts prodigy, I would be willing to help my Great Sheng Dynasty produce another Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster, or even a Blood Transformation Martial Saint."

...........................

next day

[Your Martial Arts System - Physical Realm has been increased from 15% to 19%.]

Your mastery of the "Tiger Subduing and Bone Refining Technique" has increased from 14% to 17%.

Your "Detailed Explanation of the Spirit Refining and Acupoint Opening Sensing Method" has increased from 69% to 70%.

Li Xijun, who had already started getting up at five in the morning, contentedly reviewed the results of yesterday's cultivation.

With medicinal cuisine, medicinal baths, and Qi and Blood Elixir, he cultivated to his heart's content.

Especially after making a breakthrough in his spiritual cultivation, he only needed to rest for two hours before arriving at school early, full of energy, to practice the basic cultivation methods.

This time, Ye Liuyun also arrived at the school early. After seeing that Li Xijun was not focused on practicing martial arts, he felt relieved and entered to practice as well.

However, his gaze kept drifting towards Li Xijun from time to time.

"I had never heard of Li Xijun arriving early before."

I've heard about his family's financial situation too.

"It's not like Zhou Yibai, who suddenly received help from his family to attend advanced meditation classes to aid his rest."

"Furthermore, during that previous practical lesson, he easily dodged Zhou Yibai's precise control during his attacks..."

"It's highly likely that their psychic talent is in the early stages of awakening."

A hint of envy appeared in Ye Liuyun's eyes.

The "Flowing Water Overlapping Waves Method," which was usually extremely stable and seemed to have a fixed output, started to fluctuate, forcing him to stop and rest for a while to adjust his mindset.

"Ye Liuyun, oh Ye Liuyun... have you forgotten those words?"

"Like flowing water, I don't strive to be first; I strive to flow endlessly. Regardless of what others do, I will follow my own pace, step by step, to become the scenery!"

"Besides, it's my good fortune to have met a classmate with such talent."

"It would be best to make friends, but even just being ordinary classmates is fine. At the very least, I don't want to make a foolish mistake like Zhou Yibai."

Ye Liuyun adjusted his mindset and reflected on himself.

Having just completed a round of qi and blood circulation, Li Xijun, seeing that the other party had gone to rest, took the initiative to strike up a conversation:

"Ye, I heard that your family works in the disease prevention and control bureau."

"Coincidentally, I'm planning to buy a standard electromagnetic pistol for self-defense. I was wondering what the success rate of applying to buy one is like right now?"

After all, having revealed his wealth in Dasheng, Li Xijun, being cautious, planned to first ask his classmate. If that didn't work, he would simply ask Zhang Haifeng for help, or go to the black market.

"Request to purchase the standard version of the electromagnetic pistol?" Ye Liuyun confirmed.

"Yeah, the Mythical Rift riot made me want to buy one for self-defense."

Using the previous incident as an excuse, Li Xijun spoke with righteous indignation.

"Yes, that's true. I heard that some members of the Blood God Cult are still at large."

Ye Liuyun's heart stirred, and he took the initiative to speak:

"Li, if you don't mind, you can start the subscription process now."

"I'll help you apply. There's a guarantor ID field on it. If you fill in mine, there shouldn't be any problems."

This kind of help was somewhat unexpected for Li Xijun.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Ye."

"It's nothing, but I have a small request."

Although he didn't like to make connections in a rigid way like Zhou Shenghao, Ye Liuyun, whose father was a deputy director in the system, still knew how to build relationships with people.

"Li's martial arts skills are outstanding, especially his movement techniques in actual combat. If you have time in the future, how about we spar more?"

"I would be more than happy to have the opportunity to compete with Ye, who is first in the class and among the top students in the grade."

Li Xijun readily agreed.
