Chapter 264 Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy
lights of different colors, though she maintained a composed expression, her hands and feet were slightly disorganized.Hiss!Finally, one streak of sword qi pierced through Su Han’s longsword's defens...Chapter 264: Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy
In Erliang community, after two classes ended, Dou Ren followed Zhou Liren and the others out of the classroom. "Hao Ren!" Xie Yujia called out to him at the classroom door.
"Ah! Still pretending to be with us! Go keep her company!" Zhao Jiayin turned around and pushed Hao Ren towards the doorway, then led Zhou Liren and the others up the stairs. Xie Yujia carried her bag and ran a few steps forward. "You forgot about Su Han"
"Oh," Hao Ren nodded in realization; he had been busy transcribing test papers for his evening tutoring session and was somewhat disoriented.
"Su Han, Teacher Su, what happened to her" Xie Yujia carried her bag as she approached Hao Ren.
"She's injured," Hao Ren replied.
"Injured How serious is it" Xie Yujia asked anxiously.
"I think she'll need a few weeks," Dou Ren said as he walked towards the stairs.
Xie Yujia walked beside Hao Ren, keeping pace with him.
"I want to see her. Can you take me there" Xie Yujia thought for a moment and asked again.
"Her place isn't on the ground level. I need to ask before deciding if I can bring you," Hao Ren replied.
"No problem!" Xie Yujia shook her head, "Just let me know when you get an answer tomorrow!"
Seeing how eager she was, Hao Ren hesitated for a moment and then asked her, "How much do you know about my situation"
Xie Yujia looked around and seeing no one nearby, said, "I only know that you're also training. I don't know anything else. Oh, by the way, it seems like we aren't in the same circle."
Not in the same circle Dou Ren thought about it and felt that was true; Xie Yujia’s training didn’t involve dragon pills, nor could she be seen with a halo.
"What exactly is that Dragon God Temple" Xie Yujia asked again.
She had been unable to react when Cheng Yitao mentioned it before. After thinking about it later, she was left with many questions.
"The Dragon God Temple Well, think of it like the United Nations. It's a large organization that can impose sanctions and mediate disputes, and also set rules," Hao Ren explained his understanding to Xie Yujia.
In fact, he didn't know much about the Dragon God Temple either; he only knew that inspectors belonged to the Dragon God Temple but had no idea how many inspectors it had or where they were based.
"United Nations" Xie Yujia asked casually. "Do you mean there are permanent members too"
"I don't think so," Hao Ren said as he walked out of the teaching building.
However, this question reminded him that the dragon tribes were divided into five types—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Metal dragons were proud and rare, while water dragons were numerous with complex power structures, subdividing into river, lake, sea, and ocean factions.
The Four Seas Dragon Palaces undoubtedly stood out as the four biggest entities among these many powers, each commanding hundreds of thousands of aquatic tribes. Such strength was even the Dragon God Temple, which claimed to oversee all dragon tribes, dared not easily challenge.
From this perspective, isn't the Four Seas Dragon Palace considered a superpower
The term "superpower" is given to accommodate the Dragon Temple's face while the Dragon Temple occasionally manages to catch one or two criminals from within the "superpower," but the Dragon Temple would never dare to infringe upon the core interests of the Four Seas Dragon Palace!
This means that when these two superpowers clash, even if the Dragon Temple is the nominal leader, it can only stand idly by!
As long as the West Sea relies on its strength and seizes all of the East Sea Clan's land territories, Zhao Guang leading the East Sea forces would be confined to their dragon palaces.
Fighting is disadvantageous for the East Sea due to insufficient power; not fighting means abandoning decades of development on the surface, handing it over白白送給西海！
to the West Sea!
Relying on the Dragon Temple to uphold justice is simply unrealistic.
"What's wrong Why have you suddenly become so serious" Seeing Hao Ren fall silent, Xie Yujia turned to look at him and asked.
“Nothing,” Hao Ren looked at Xie Yujia; she had succinctly pointed out the entire situation with just one sentence.
Initially thinking that the West Sea was merely pressuring them and wouldn't dare take immediate action, now he realized that Ceng Yitao's provocations were part of the West Sea’s strategy.
If they couldn’t resist striking back at Ceng Yitao, the West Sea would seize the opportunity to ignite a conflict!
As the Crown Prince of West Sea, Ceng Yitao wouldn't be as foolish as he appeared on the surface!
However, capturing Black Wolf and severely injuring Ceng Yitao exceeded the West Sea's expectations.
"Hey, hey, are you okay" Seeing Hao Ren fall into deep thought again, Xie Yujia waved her hand in front of his eyes.
“I’m fine!” Hao Ren shook his head vigorously.
Now it seemed he had underestimated the situation. Thinking Ceng Yitao was just an unthinking playboy and severely injuring him out of anger played right into West Sea's hands!
"This weekend, I'll go with you to meet that old woman," Hao Ren suddenly turned to Xie Yujia.
During their last encounter in the sky, a single move had incapacitated Black Wolf. That voice must have been the old woman's; Hao Ren was clear that Xie Yujia had someone of superhuman skill behind her!
To his surprise, Xie Yujia shook her head gently, "The old lady said she doesn't want to see you in the short term. She also mentioned she won’t be involved with anything extra."
The old woman doesn't want to meet me
Hao Ren looked at Xie Yujia, thinking it was likely still because of her.
"Are you going to the library" suddenly asked Xie Yujia.
“No,” Hao Ren shook his head.
"Okay then. I'll be heading to the library. Give me your answer tomorrow regarding visiting Su Han," Xie Yujia pushed her bicycle, which was parked by the teaching building, and lightly mounted it, ringing its bell as she slowly cycled towards the distant white library.
Hao Ren watched her retreating figure and concluded that the old woman would definitely not intervene in the conflict between the Dragon Palaces. She left everything to be handled by the Dragon God Temple, clearly showing that she did not want to interfere too much with internal dragon affairs.
What difference would a bloody battle between Dong Hai and Xi Hai make to her
Seeing Xie Yujia's bicycle disappear around the corner of the building, Hao Ren sighed slightly before heading out of school.
Everyone thought he was on a date with Xie Yujia, but in reality, they did not disturb each other and both had their own lives to lead. As long as the secret was revealed, Hao Ren could relax, and so could Xie Yujia.
Hao Ren was practicing his cultivation while Xie Yujia was also busy with her training. Just like before when Xie Yujia did not want to be outdone by the little brother she admired in her heart, now Xie Yujia did not want to lose to Hao Ren.
To truly enter Hao Ren's new world, one had to work hard at improving oneself.
After stepping outside the school gate, Hao Ren bought a loaf of bread from a small shop to fill his stomach. Since it was still early in the afternoon and he did not have any classes, he decided to head straight for Senior Sun's martial arts academy in the city center.
Senior Sun's martial arts academy was located at the west end of bustling Nanjing Road in the city center. As soon as Hao Ren arrived at the gate, he saw a large sign that read "Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy."
This martial arts academy was named after Senior Sun. Upon seeing this name, Hao Ren recalled recent news… Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy's martial arts training centers had been rapidly expanding across various cities, and it seemed that the one in Dong Hai City was its main branch.
After pausing briefly at the entrance, Hao Ren stepped into this solemn-looking martial arts academy. As soon as he entered, he saw a group of young people practicing inside the hall.
The practitioners were divided into two groups: one consisting of muscular individuals moving in standard motions, obviously students of the academy; and another made up of people of varying body types with awkward movements, clearly urbanites who came here for physical exercise.
It was midday now. Some white-collar workers from nearby office buildings had long lunch breaks and would come over to practice. Nowadays, fitness, yoga, Pilates, and other activities were thriving, making this martial arts academy a new trend in city workouts.
Of course, Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy's goal was not just to become a trendy urban fitness program. More importantly, the academy annually sent out dozens of professional security personnel to key positions across society.
In fact, due to the simplicity and effectiveness of its martial arts training methods, even government police institutions used Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy as a training base for regular drills.
As Hao Ren entered the hall, a disciple immediately came forward to greet him. "Young man, are you here to learn martial arts or looking for someone"
"I'm here to see Senior Sun," said Hao Ren.
"You're seeking Master Sun!" The young disciple looked at Hao Ren and asked, "Are you Hao Ren"
"Yes." Hao Ren replied.
The disciple's expression immediately became even more respectful. "Master Sun has arranged a special place for you. Please follow me."
Hao Ren nodded and followed him closely. This disciple had no aura of light; if he was not deliberately concealing his strength, then he must be an ordinary student at the martial arts academy.
These students or disciples came to Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy to learn skills. The academy provided them with food and lodging during their stay but expected them to work hard in training. They had to pass regular skill tests and moral evaluations; those who did not meet the standards would be dismissed.
In addition, these students and disciples also needed to help run the martial arts academy, such as providing one-on-one coaching for paying members inside the hall or guiding guests around, selecting training sites, and designing training programs.
Of course, their efforts were not in vain. Once they reached the standard of graduation, Sun Yun Martial Arts Academy would arrange stable and well-compensated jobs for them.
In addition, Sun Yunwu Martial Arts Academy has officially graduated its first batch of students. This is a golden招牌! Even some wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong specifically come here to pick bodyguards!
As Sun Yunwu Martial Arts Academy continues to develop, these formally graduated disciples have increasingly wide networks of師兄師弟師姐師妹in society, truly making friends from all over the country!
Elder Sun is small and short, but his foresight in this development can be called far-sighted!
After passing through the main hall, there's a courtyard. The corridor on both sides of the courtyard has been partitioned into many single rooms. Hao Ren saw each advanced member practicing individually inside these rooms, while their "masters" were all skilled senior disciples from the martial arts academy.
To be able to lease such a large plot in the city center, Hao Ren could only admire Elder Sun's wealth and audacity.
And another hotel operated by Elder Sun is also the most luxurious one in Donghai City.
All of these are just small branches of Donghai’s land-based business. This alone can imagine how雄厚的經濟實力Donghai possesses in this region, and even internationally!
"Hehe, isn't this second year" Just as Hao Ren passed by a single room, a familiar voice that made him annoyed suddenly came from inside.
Hao Ren stopped walking and turned to look inside. As expected, he found Huang Xujie practicing martial arts in one of the rooms. Accompanying him was none other than the team leader of the Maritime University Kendo Club during the inter-school exchange activity!
The two of them were wearing academy student uniforms, drenched in sweat, while a young senior brother with a height of over 180 cm was teaching them martial arts individually.
Seeing that the team leader from Maritime University’s Kendo Club was here as well, Hao Ren was surprised and found it somewhat amusing. This main player of Maritime University's Kendo Club actually thought he had mastered Kendo very well; turns out he was practicing Chinese martial arts here to boost his strength before showcasing it with Kendo!
And the fact that Huang Xujie is friends with this team leader proves that the chaos at Donghai University’s Kendo Club, as well as the unscrupulous bullying of Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, were all Huang Xujie's instructions!
The reason was that Lu Linlin and Lu Jiali rejected his advances and joined the Kendo club, causing its popularity to skyrocket at school, surpassing his rock climbing club.
Since he couldn't act directly, he had校外的朋友在社團交流活動上挑釁自己學校的社團挑唆校外的朋友在社團交流活動上挑釁他學校的社團. This was simply...
"Do you know how much an hour costs here As a poor guy like you, do you think you can come and practice martial arts here" Huang Xujie picked up a white towel, wiped his sweat while walking to the door and said to Hao Ren.
In the last club activity, he had seen Hao Ren fighting, relying only on brute strength without any method. So when he saw Hao Ren coming here, he thought Hao Ren was also here to practice martial arts.
Just as he wanted to continue mocking Hao Ren, the young senior brother teaching Huang Xujie walked towards the door and respectfully bowed to the little disciple leading Hao Ren: "Uncle."
The little disciple leading Hao Ren simply nodded. "The angle of that punch needs to be a bit higher, and you need to leave a bit of strength. Keep working hard."
"Thank you Uncle for your guidance!" This tall and sturdy man bent slightly and replied respectfully.
The little disciple leading Hao Ren ignored him, instead humbly bowing towards Hao Ren and stretching out his hands in front of him: "Mr. Hao, please continue forward. Your room was personally assigned by the manager; it's the most inner 'Kingdom Supreme' training room."
"Alright." Hao Ren lifted his foot and continued walking. Now that he had become a cultivator with a complete Golden丹, he didn't need to take Huang Xujie seriously.
Huang Xujie's eyes widened as he watched Hao Ren continue to walk in: "This... He booked the most expensive room"
"That’s not the most expensive one; it's actually a private room that isn't open for public booking." The young senior brother teaching Huang Xujie corrected him and said enviously.ust need to run three more laps around the garden."Hao Ren nearly spat out his nosebleed. "Pathetic! Your stamina is too poor!" The muscular man glanced at Hao Ren with even greater contempt before le...
