In Nanjiang City, where martial arts are prevalent and everyone wants to practice martial arts, most of those who have the qualifications to open a martial arts hall are gorgeously decorated and have many disciples, and it is difficult to find a deserted martial arts hall.

However, in this inconspicuous place in front of him, the martial arts hall with a very domineering name called "Heavenly Dao" seems deserted and desolate, at a glance, there are only a few disciples in the martial arts hall, and the plaque is old, although it is clean, but at a glance, it can be seen that the martial arts hall has not been redecorated and maintained for a long time.

Seeing that no one was at the door to greet him, Wu Fan walked in by himself.

Entering the middle courtyard, Wu Fan found that the tables and chairs in the martial arts hall were messy, and there were many equipment that looked like they had been smashed, and several people in the martial arts hall were cleaning up at this time.

"Senior brother, don't clean it up, anyway, this place will be smashed every few days, and now that it's cleaned up, it won't be smashed by Tianyang's group of guys in a few days. A young man with a slightly immature face and a bitter face persuaded his senior brother who was diligently cleaning up.

And the senior brother in the young man's mouth is a tall and thin young man with an age of about eighteen.

The tall and thin young man didn't stop, but while working, he taught the junior disciples behind him: "Even if it is going to be smashed again, it will be five days later, and in these five days, I can't let the martial arts hall go on like this, so that even if someone comes to learn martial arts, they will be scared away!"

The young junior brother said in a sullen voice: "Where will anyone dare to come to our martial arts hall to learn martial arts, the master has been plotted by someone and now his leg disease has not healed, and the martial arts hall is kicked out of the gym every five days by the Tianyang martial arts hall to challenge, which family dares to send children to us to learn martial arts." ”

The tall and thin young man's action of packing up his things paused, he turned his back to his junior brother, bent over and holding a half-broken table leg, and was silent for a long time before he straightened up and turned around, his face full of guilt and self-blame.

"It's the senior brother who has affected you, as a senior brother of the martial arts hall, but my qualifications are dull, and I have not broken through the initial realm of martial arts so far, and in the face of the kicking and challenges of other martial arts halls, I am powerless to fight, yes...... It's the incompetence of the senior brother!"

The two brothers looked at each other, and found that each other's eyes were red, and several other brothers around them were also choked, not knowing that the martial arts hall they grew up in could support for a few days.

They are all orphans taken in by the martial arts hall, and when the martial arts hall was still glorious, the master took them in, provided them with food and drink, raised them, and taught them to practice martial arts, so to speak, the martial arts hall is their home.

It's just that later, with the decline of the martial arts hall, many disciples either quit the martial arts hall or took refuge in other martial arts halls, as long as they were orphans, they stayed and held on to the last hope.

"Hey, there's a guest!"

Someone finally recovered from the sad atmosphere and found Wu Fan who came in.

As a tall and thin young man, he immediately wiped his eyes, took a few deep breaths, adjusted his state, and stepped forward to greet him enthusiastically.

"Hello, I am the chief disciple of the Heavenly Dao Martial Arts Pavilion Master, Chen Zhuo, you want to ...... Sign up for martial arts for your children and nephews, or do you want to learn martial arts yourself?"

Chen Shu enthusiastically and patiently introduced the relevant common sense of martial arts to Wu Fan, in order to show the sincerity and integrity of his martial arts hall, he told Wu Fan that the best age for ordinary people to practice martial arts is under the age of eighteen, if they can break through the initial realm of martial arts before the age of eighteen, the future is immeasurable, and there may be a chance to break through to a higher realm.

However, if after reaching the age of eighteen, there are still no people who have broken through the initial realm of martial arts, and the potential of martial arts has almost come to an end, except for the rumors that the behemoths such as the Military Department, the Heavenly Supervisor Division and the Martial Arts Business Alliance have secret methods that can stimulate their potential again, otherwise the martial artists who have not broken through after the age of eighteen will stop at the beginning of the martial arts realm.

"But even if you are a martial artist below the beginning realm, practicing more martial arts can also protect your body, maintain your body, and have many benefits, our Heavenly Dao Martial Arts Hall has been established for decades and has rich experience in teaching and learning. ”

Chen Zhuo's enthusiastic promotion, today's martial arts hall needs an income too much, the martial arts hall can accept a large amount of martial arts fees, if you can bring in a disciple, this will bring some relief to the martial arts hall's overstretched finances.

And Chen Zuo was not all to deceive Wu Fan, he swore in his heart that as long as Wu Fan agreed to learn martial arts at the Heavenly Dao Martial Arts Hall, he would definitely teach wholeheartedly, teach apprentices on behalf of his teacher, and teach all his knowledge.

In fact, although Chen Zuo's own qualifications were dull and his martial arts progress was slow, he was about to pass the age of eighteen, the last time to break through the initial realm of martial arts.

But his theoretical knowledge is very rich and insightful, and even the master often praised his theoretical talent before he was plotted.

Many times, he is helping the master to teach.

Wu Fan looked at the tall and thin young man with interest, and teased: "Your martial arts hall has been dilapidated like this, maybe it will be gone one day, how can I practice martial arts here with peace of mind?"

Chen Xian's face showed embarrassment, and he just wanted to explain, when there was a quarrel from the corridor leading to the front hall from the backyard, and when he turned to look, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy walked out with a large bag of luggage.

"Huo Qing, you are the only disciple of the Martial Arts Pavilion who has the hope of breaking through the initial realm of the Martial Dao before the age of eighteen, do you really want to leave and abandon the Heavenly Dao Martial Pavilion?"

In front of the young man, there were constantly senior brothers beside him to advise, and some people even blocked the front with their bodies, but they were all knocked away by the young man named Huo Qing.

"Huo Qing, you are the same as us, you have been an orphan since you were a child, it was the master who took us in and provided us with food, clothing and martial arts, now is the most difficult time for the martial arts hall, you are so ruthless, you go to other martial arts halls, and even take refuge in the enemy of our Tiandao martial arts hall - Tianyang Martial Arts Hall!"

“……”

In the face of the persuasion or accusations of his brothers and sisters, Huo Qing was expressionless, resolute, and still moved forward.

And none of the brothers and sisters who stood in front could stop him.

It wasn't until a tall and thin figure stood in front of him that Huo Qing stopped.

"Big brother!"

Huo Qing raised his head, looked at the senior brother Chen Zuo in front of him, and opened his mouth, wanting to say something but not knowing how.

For these orphans, Master is their benefactor, taking them in and teaching them martial arts, but Master has always been strict and unsmiling.

Among these junior brothers, the senior brother is the closest person to them, it is the senior brother who personally takes care of their daily life and diet, it is the senior brother who will explain and comfort them when they are sad and confused, and it is the senior brother who will always take care of them like an elder brother and a father - even if the senior brother is still very young, even if the senior brother's martial arts qualifications are not outstanding, even worse than many junior brothers!

With disappointment on his face, Chen Shu sighed and said to Huo Qing:

"Master and I are not the ones who coerce you to repay your kindness, you are the best martial arts qualification among us, you want to take refuge in other martial arts halls and get better martial arts resources, although I don't agree, but I also respect your choice.

But, after all, you used to be a disciple of my Heavenly Dao Martial Pavilion, after all, you were once favored by your teacher, and you should not take refuge in our enemy, Tianyang Martial Pavilion.

Master's leg injury was caused by the Tianyang Martial Arts, the decline of the Tiandao Martial Arts Pavilion, and the suppression of the Tianyang Martial Arts, you chose to take refuge in the enemy, which makes me very disappointed!"
