Chapter 12: Choosing a Martial Skill
Seeing Wang Zhe's attitude, Zhang Chengan was annoyed: "Do you have a problem with your brain?" β
What do you mean by that? Wang Zhe held back his anger.
"Hmph! Every martial artist who can join Tongqingzong is a smart person, those fellow disciples in front of you, don't need me to deliberately remind them, just follow my rules, you're good, I wasted so much saliva on you, and you haven't opened your mind." β
Wang Zhe doesn't want to dwell on this issue for a long time, no matter where he is, there is always no shortage of villains like Zhang Chengan, since everyone is the same door, there will be more opportunities for communication in the future. It matters to the truth, anyway, he still has the fifty-six ordinary yuan stones he snatched from Wang Chutian, so he should take out a bone and feed it to the dog.
"You're rewarded. Wang Zhe took out three yuan stones and threw them on the table.
Zhang Chengan hurriedly grabbed Yuanshi, his eyes flashed, and he waved his hand: "Okay, you can go." β
"You will regret your greed. Wang Zhe dropped this sentence, took his things, and left the chore.
"Regret, boy, don't talk empty if you don't have the strength. Zhang Cheng'an drooled, put one of the ordinary yuan stones into the drawer, and then put the two yuan stones into his own pocket.
"Next. Zhang Ancheng's eyes were full of golden light.
Wang Zhe left the chores and, together with some newcomers, crossed a few small roads and came to the place where he lived.
Tongqingzong was vast and wealthy, and although there were more than 5,000 disciples from the outer sect, they still arranged a separate tiled house for each of them.
Wang Zhe found his accommodation, took out the key and opened the door to enter, and quickly cleaned up the room.
He still can't make up his mind, because through the explanation of Lu He, the elder of the outer gate, he knows that newcomers can go to the library to get a martial art suitable for themselves.
Wang Zhe couldn't wait, he now had the dual attributes of flame and gale, and the flame had learned the blazing palm, it was time to learn a martial art related to gale.
So he hurriedly took out the map of Tongqingzong, opened it, and found that it was a blank paper with no pictures and no words!
"Zhang Ancheng, you villain. Wang Zhe rolled up the white paper and threw it away, quickly changed into the yellow shirt clothes of the outer disciples, and slammed the door.
Wang Zhe knew that Zhang Ancheng deliberately gave him a blank map, and he really wanted to go to Zhang Ancheng to seek justice now, but it was only three months before the inner disciples were screened, and he had to hurry up to prepare, and the new martial arts must be learned.
At all times, the improvement of one's cultivation must be put first, and Wang Zhe joined Tongqingzong in order to become stronger.
On the way, Wang Zhe saw a female disciple of the outer sect walking alone from a distance, holding a book of exercise cheats in her hand, and she was reading it while walking.
"Division...... Sister, please stay. Wang Zhe stepped forward and said, he found that the female disciple had a baby face, and she seemed to be younger than him on the outside, but she had a good figure, especially her full chest was eye-catching.
After the female disciple looked up and saw Wang Zhe, she couldn't help but take a few steps back, she was also a new outer disciple, and she seemed reluctant to contact strangers.
"Don't be so nervous, I just wanted to ask you for directions. Wang Zhe smiled.
The female disciple checked left and right, and when she found that there was no one else nearby, she spoke, "Say it." β
"I don't know my sister's name. Wang Zhe said politely.
βγ The female disciple pursed her lips and seemed unwilling to answer.
Wang Zhe didn't care, and asked again: "Senior sister, can you tell me how to go to the Library Pavilion." β
"It's marked on the map from the miscellaneous office. The female disciple's eyes widened.
"I don't have a map. Wang Zhe said truthfully.
"Have you also been asked to hand over three yuan stones? The female disciple thought of something.
"Hmm. Wang Zhe nodded.
"They rely on their cultivation to be high, can they bully people like this? The female disciple seemed more aggrieved than Wang Zhe, it seemed that she was also pitted by Zhang Ancheng, and then she took out her map and let Wang Zhe watch it.
Cultivators, their memory is generally better than that of ordinary people, and the map of Tongqingzong is not complicated, Wang Zhe roughly read it and remembered it.
He returned the map to the female disciple and said gratefully, "Thank you." β
"No thanks. The female disciple took back the map, bowed her head and walked away, Wang Zhe found that her cheeks were red when she left, and she must have been an introverted and shy woman.
The Library Pavilion is the place where Tongqing Sect stores martial arts cheats, and it is divided into five layers, the first layer is only allowed to enter the outer disciples, the second layer can only be entered by the inner disciples and above, the third layer is only the core disciples can enter, and the fourth layer can only be entered by elders and sect masters.
As for the fifth layer, no one is allowed to enter, because the fifth layer has been banned and sealed.
Except for a few people from Tongqingzong, most people didn't know what secrets existed on the fifth floor of the Library Pavilion.
Wang Zhe came to the library pavilion, and he found that the library was shaped like a tall pagoda, large at the bottom and small at the top, like a square pyramid. From the outside, it can be seen that it has gone through the ups and downs of the long years, and still stands majestically on this ancient land.
"Tongqingzong deserves a long history. Wang Zhe took a deep breath, took a step, and walked into the library pavilion.
As soon as I entered the library pavilion, I saw that there were many outer disciples wearing yellow shirts on the first floor, choosing their favorite martial arts inside.
At the door, there was an old man who was sitting motionless, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he thought it was a vivid statue.
"I'm here to pick up martial arts. Wang Zhe said respectfully.
"Identity tags. The old man opened his eyes slightly.
Wang Zhe handed over the silver outer disciple identity card.
"Outer disciples can only be active at the first level, and they can only learn one martial art per year. Originally, you couldn't take it out, but after you picked out your favorite martial arts, you brought it to me to copy, and then took away your identity card. The old man said to Wang Zhe like an endorsement, and then put away Wang Zhe's outer disciple identity card.
"Got it. Wang Zhe nodded.
The old man took out a stick of incense, lit it, and then inserted it into a brown porcelain bowl, and said, "After this pillar of incense burns out, you must come out, otherwise I will abolish your cultivation." β
Although this is the rule, it is too overbearing. Wang Zhe couldn't help but sarcastically said, "If the elders and sect masters don't come out until the specified time, do you also want to abolish their cultivation?" β
"Yes. The old man said lightly.
"What. Wang Zhe was shocked when he heard this, and said in his heart that this old man didn't even pay attention to the sect master, could it be that he was an old monster of Tongqing Sect?
In the Blue Mountains Country, there are often some hidden masters in the big sects, they are usually unborn, and the Taishang Elder who is dedicated to martial arts is the strongest force in the sect, but most people don't know their true identity. Because of their existence, foreign enemies did not dare to invade, and the sect could develop steadily.
This old man doesn't even pay attention to the sect master, it is very likely that he is an old monster-level character, so I should not provoke him. Wang Zhe then shrugged his shoulders and chose martial arts.
He wandered among the countless rows of bookshelves, trying to find a martial art suitable for the Heavenly Wolf Elemental Spirit, although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, but the result was still slightly disappointed. Since there was no martial art specifically created for the Heavenly Wolf Elemental Spirit, he changed the target to the martial arts related to the flame and wind attributes.
Outer disciples could only learn lower-grade martial arts, and Wang Zhe first checked them on the bookshelf where the flame attribute martial arts were placed.
"There is also a Flame Palm here, which is regarded as a treasure in the Wang family, but it is a public reading material in Tongqingzong, and it belongs to the lowest level. Wang Zhe felt a lot of feelings in his heart, and after coming to Tongqingzong, he felt how small the Wang family was, and how naΓ―ve and ridiculous their various struggles for power and profit seemed now.
In the past 120 years, the ancestor of the Wang family has been staying in the Wang family, holding a high position and power, and is in charge of the killing power of the Wang family.
Wang Zhe quickly checked these martial arts cheats, and found that there were fire refining sword techniques, three flame sound waves, Vermilion Bird Dance, Tiger Devouring Flame Fist, Purple Flame Tyrant Sword Slash, Ghost Fire Palm, Demon Corpse Fire, etc., all of which were very domineering.
But Wang Zhe quickly flipped through it and found that the power of these martial arts and the Flame Palm were only between Zhong Bo, and there was no Flame Palm to use it easily.
Shaking his head, Wang Zhe walked to the bookshelf where the Gale Attribute Martial Arts Cheats were placed, and quickly checked these Martial Arts Cheats.
"Maybe I'm too demanding, the power of the low-grade martial arts is like this, no matter how good the martial arts of the gale attribute are, they are only a little more powerful than the Flame Palm, instead of wasting time learning these useless martial arts, it is better to use the Flame Palm with the left and right hands at the same time in battle. β
Wang Zhe subconsciously looked back at the burning incense and found that there was still a third left. In desperation, he casually flipped through the bookshelf of other attribute cheats.
"Huh? This cheatbook...... I see, it may not be useful to others, but it is of great use to me. Wang Zhe's face suddenly turned overjoyed, and he picked up a cheatbook with a gray cover and left immediately.
Wang Zhe handed over the gray cover of the martial arts cheats to the old man who was guarding the library.
The old man didn't care at first, but after seeing the title of this martial arts cheatbook, he couldn't help but say, "You have a lot of choices, why don't you choose the better one." β
"In my eyes, it has a lot more effect on me than other inferior martial arts. Wang Zhe said with a smile.
The old man who guarded the pavilion narrowed his eyes, as if he had thought of something, so he couldn't help but sarcastically: "I see, you must be playing that kind of idea, but I want to advise you, I have guarded the library for many years, and you are not the first outer disciple to have that kind of idea, but those disciples who made the same choice as you have failed one by one." β
"I am determined to pass the screening of inner disciples, and I will not joke with my future, you can rest assured. Wang Zhe's eyes were blazing.
The old man who guarded the pavilion looked a little displeased: "Young man, don't be too ambitious, I have already advised you, it's your business to listen or not, go and copy it." β
"Understood. Wang Zhe smiled slightly, and took the original martial arts to the side to copy.
After a while, he finished copying, put the original back in its original place, took back the identity card of the outer disciple from the old man's hand, and left the library without looking back.
