In the year 2117 of the Astral Calendar, the blue planet initially entered the era of science and technology, because of a great change a hundred years ago, along another trajectory, entered a new era.

Flying machines are flying low in the sky, cars are roaring on the roads, and huge billboards on tall buildings are playing wonderful videos, full of modern atmosphere. But on the road, there are also people, the speed is like the wind, a hundred meters in the blink of an eye, some people shoulder hundreds of pounds of heavy objects, their faces do not change color, and they walk like flying, and there are even more people playing parkour between complex buildings, just a jump, they jump to more than three meters, and do all kinds of complex actions in the air......

Suddenly, a soft whistling sound came, and I saw someone stepping on a flying sword in the sky, like a legendary immortal, whistling by, and disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.

"Innate Realm powerhouse ......" retracted the envious gaze in his eyes, and Xiang Shang said secretly.

He knew that those who could fly in the air with flying swords were all strong people who had reached the innate realm, and people in this realm were already considered to be big bosses, and their strength was unimaginable.

Even in the entire Jiangzhou City, there are few powerhouses in this realm.

"Oops, it's almost late. Suddenly, Xiang Shang's face changed, his steps were raised, and one step was about one meter five, and in less than ten seconds, he had already appeared a hundred meters away. The speed surpasses the 100-meter champion of the old era.

Xiang still doesn't care about all this, and is used to it.

Since the cholera in the East China Sea a hundred years ago, the heavens and the earth have undergone great changes. The so-called evolutionary factor in modern times, the aura of heaven and earth in ancient legends, has reappeared. The martial arts techniques in some old classics have been picked up by people again, and the individual is strong and infinitely elevated.

Nowadays, people have already entered the era of national cultivation. A hundred years ago, no one would have cared about the sports record.

The realm of martial arts is the focus of people's attention.

Soon, Xiang Shang appeared in a martial arts hall.

This martial arts hall is called Tong's Martial Arts Hall, although it is located in the middle of nowhere, but the price is affordable, and there are all the training equipment that should be there, so naturally students are indispensable.

Xiang Shang is a student of this martial arts hall.

"Xiang Shang, you're here, ...... The owner of the museum is about to start the class, this time it's about the seven star steps you have always wanted to learn, and if you miss this time, you don't know when you will have the opportunity. As soon as he stepped into the martial arts hall, a strong black boy ran over and pulled him inside.

"Finally caught up. Entering the lecture hall, he didn't see the hall owner Tong He, Xiang Shang breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to the black boy: "Zhao Guangming, thank you." ”

"You're welcome. Zhao Guangming waved his hand, not caring at all.

Hearing this, Xiang Shang didn't say anything more. Others help him, although he doesn't say it, but he keeps it in his heart, as long as he has the opportunity, he will naturally return it one by one.

At this moment, a tall middle-aged man, wearing a coach uniform, walked in.

The person who came was Tong He, the owner of the Tong Martial Arts Hall, a strong man who was acquired eightfold.

"The acquired Yae is really powerful, and just as I get closer, I feel discomfort and a sense of oppression...... This time it was the right one, although the Seven Star Steps were not the famous method of the Tong Pavilion Master, but for me now, it was definitely enough. "The reason why Xiang Shang rushed over naturally has his own purpose.

That is to master a body method and make the most important supplement for him to walk in the wild.

"After junior high school, the national compulsory education has ended, and if you want to study, you have to spend money. In terms of arts and sciences, the tuition is not expensive, but if you want to enter the martial arts academy, then the tuition fee is not affordable for ordinary people. Xiang Shang said in his heart that he knew what he needed.

If you want to be stable, liberal arts and sciences are naturally the first choice. Urban construction and company management all need talents in this area, which are safe and not badly paid.

But martial arts is Xiang Shang's pursuit...... And he has been admitted to the First Martial Arts Academy of Jiangzhou City.

So, Xiang still needs money, a lot of money. Not only tuition, living expenses, but also the necessary nutrition expenses for martial arts training. That's the real big head.

Cultivation consumes resources. In ancient times, when practicing martial arts, there was a saying that food tonic medicine was supplemented. It is because in the process of practicing martial arts, qi and blood are constantly consumed, and it is necessary to replenish energy to maintain this consumption.

The same is true for modern practice. Beast meat and nutrient solution are all routine energy supplements.

But all of this costs money, and it costs a lot of money. Xiang Shang's parents died early, and he struggled to survive since he was a child, and he has long understood that he can only rely on himself. The city is safe, but the jobs he can find are not enough for him. So he can only hope for the wild.

With his strength, he naturally can't deal with mid-to-high-level fierce beasts, but low-level fierce beasts, he thinks he can still deal with them.

......

"Seven Star Step is a combat method, moving and moving, suddenly retreating, all in it......" Tong He is a simple person, no nonsense, and speaks directly. While explaining, he used his body to explain every action in great detail, so that people could easily understand it.

Xiang Shang stood at the front, his eyes widened, and he combined every key point explained by the master of the Tong Pavilion with the actions, and memorized it in his mind.

"The body method is about flexible application, although this seven-star step is a combat body method, but if I want to, I can also use him as a speed-type body method, you see ......" said, Tong He began to show again, this time, it was different from before, I saw his figure in the training ground suddenly advanced, extremely fast.

"As long as you break down this body and study and understand it, you will find a lot of interesting phenomena...... It is not difficult to learn this set of body methods, but the real difficulty is to apply it flexibly, if you use it well, it is not impossible to defeat people who are stronger than yourself. ”

Unconsciously, the martial arts class had ended, the master of the children's hall naturally left, and the students also scattered in twos and threes, and practiced separately.

Xiang Shang did the same, he found a corner with Zhao Guangming, practiced one by one, and found that he didn't understand, so he stopped to think or discuss, until he confirmed that the movements were in place, and then practiced separately and performed them over and over again.

An hour......

Two hours......

Three hours passed, and Xiang Shang finally stopped.

After three hours of practice, Xiang is still on this set of postures and has already started.

This speed is not fast, in the era of national cultivation, geniuses emerge in an endless stream, and there are not a few people who can start the same martial art within an hour, or even within half an hour. But Xiang Shang is already satisfied.

Since he cultivated, he had long known that he was not a genius, he had not forgotten it, and he did not have any superb martial arts talents. But he never thought of giving up, he believed that hard work could make up for his shortcomings.

"What's more, tonight, the Enlightenment Bead will be opened......" Thinking of this, Xiang Shang was more confident.

......

When Xiang Shang walked out of the martial arts hall, it was already dark.

In less than ten minutes, Xiang Shang came to the door of the community where he lived. Jiangwan Community, a low-rent housing community with a history of 70 years.

Xiang Shang lives on the tenth floor, the elevator has long been damaged, and no one wants to repair it, most of the people who live here are poor, and no one wants to pay an extra electricity property fee. Besides, now everyone practices martial arts, and their physique is very different, and there is not much difference between the tenth and twenty floors.

Entering the room, it is a house of about eighty square meters, roughly maintaining the style of two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom in the previous era, but only Xiang Shang lives here, so he transformed one of the rooms into a practice room, and even the living room is equipped with a lot of fitness equipment.

Dinner was three catties of rice cooked with blood spirit rice and half a catty of cooked bucktooth rabbit meat, and Xiang Shang felt full after eating them all. This is already the minimum requirement required for martial arts, and after a day of cultivation, the consumption of qi and blood is very serious, and it must be replenished.

"Blood spirit rice is rice that has been moistened by spiritual energy, and it is not a product, but it also costs thirty star yuan a catty, and as for the bucktooth rabbit, it is a fierce beast. The price of meat is 100 yuan a catty, which adds up to 140 yuan per catty. Three meals a day is 420 star yuan...... The parents' inheritance and compassionate money are only 13,000 left, and they can last for a month at most...... Can't wait any longer, three days, everything must be ready in three days. A strong sense of urgency surged in Xiang Shang's heart.

As for cutting expenses and reducing consumption, he didn't even think about it.

Since the outbreak of the beast tide when he was eight years old, his parents were recruited to go on the expedition and never came back, and he has suffered a lot of warmth and coldness after losing the protection of his parents, and he has long understood that only when he is strong can he truly protect himself. So he put all his thoughts on cultivation. As long as it is helpful to his cultivation, he is never stingy with spending money.

In the practice room, Xiang Shang suppressed his emotions and calmed down.

Fifteen minutes later, his face was expressionless, his eyes were calm, and then he solemnly pulled out a pendant from under his neck.

It was a purple-black bead that was tied to a red rope and hung around Xiang Shang's neck. The beads are not smooth on the outside, they are a bit rough at first glance, and of course they are rough to the touch, so it is easy to ignore them and think that they are just ordinary marbles. But if you look closely, you will find that there are many wisps of texture inside this bead, which seem to be chaotic and seem to have some kind of regularity.

"Enlightenment Bead!"

Xiang still didn't know the origin of the bead, only that it was a relic left to him by his parents, and that he found it from a hidden compartment when he was cleaning up his parents' room.

At first, he didn't know the function of this bead, but he held the idea that it must be a good thing for this bead to be hidden so hidden, and hung it directly around his neck. It was fresh at first, and then it was forgotten.
