When a newcomer is admitted to the hospital, he or she must undergo some martial arts and physical fitness tests to determine which group they are placed in. The registered disciple told Li Longyan that if he came back tomorrow, the master would test him.

Li Longyan thanked the disciple and came out with Xia Fan.

Xia Fan said: "Has Li Gongzi learned martial arts before? If you haven't learned it, then you have to start cultivating from the Young Dragon Group, most of these Young Dragon Group are children under the age of twelve, and Gongzi joins in, I'm afraid that there will be some ......" He smiled slightly and said, "I'm just afraid that I am a little embarrassed." ”

Li Longyan said with a smile: "I've learned a little, I don't know what tomorrow's test will be, if I really want to enter the young dragon group, then I can't think about it." ”

Xia Fan nodded and said, "I wish you a smooth test tomorrow, if you can enter the Fulong group, it doesn't matter, after practicing for two or three years, you can be promoted to the Shenglong group." It took me two years to move from the Fulong group to the Thang Long group. ”

From the Fulong group to the Shenglong group in two years, it can be regarded as a very fast progress, and some of the brothers who entered the Fulong group with Xia Fan back then are still in the original group. Xia Fan said this, a little proud.

Li Longyan snorted and said, "Senior Brother Xia, please give me more guidance in the future." Where do you live? I'll give you a ride. ”

Xia Fan said: "No need, thank you Gongzi Li for your kindness." My house is on Green Willow Street, seven miles away, and it's only a short walk away. ”

Li Longyan nodded, and arched his hand to Xia Fan: "In this case, then I will get in the car first, Senior Brother Xia, see you tomorrow." ”

Xia Fan watched this Li Gongzi and the purple-clothed old man get into the luxury carriage and gallop away, and couldn't help but feel secretly touched in his heart.

It's good to have money, no matter where you go, it's comfortable and comfortable.

The carriage and the two horses that pulled the carriage were worth two thousand taels of silver.

His own rice and oil shop, when the business is good, only twelve or three taels of silver will come in, although the family's food and clothing are not a big problem, but that's all.

My sister is 13 years old this year, has studied in a private school for a few years, and now helps her parents run the shop. During this period, I got sick, took medicine to see the disease, and the family's expenses were larger.

If nothing changes, the life of the family may be like this forever, inheriting his parents' rice oil shop and living a life of rising and fighting small people, and his sister finds a family with the right family to marry, and spends her life as ordinary.

A few years ago, when the family went out on the street, it rained that day, and a luxurious carriage drove past them, splashing them with muddy water from the wheels, but a pair of young men and women in the carriage paid no attention, and the man only glanced at them lightly, and then still talked and laughed with the woman beside him, and went all the way.

That night, Xia Fan looked at the night sky and made a promise to make his family rich, so that his parents could eat and dress well, and live a comfortable old age, and let his sister have jewelry and servants to serve him.

So he joined the Tianxing Martial Arts Academy, to learn a skill, thinking that after learning martial arts, he would open his own martial arts gym and make much more money than a rice oil shop.

Even if you don't open a martial arts gym and become a sect leader in Tianxingmen, just like Master Hong, your income will be much better.

The rich boy brother practices martial arts, usually just to strengthen his body, and some are to be famous and showy, and learning martial arts is dispensable for them. The pressure on themselves is much greater than theirs.

Thinking of this, he strengthened his determination to strive for the top.

*

When he returned home, Xia Fan didn't tell his family about his injury, for fear that his parents would worry. Fortunately, Jiang Haoran's palm strength was limited, and he dissipated half of his strength in time, and his injuries were not serious, so he slept at home for one night, and the next day he had almost recovered, so he came to the martial arts academy to continue his cultivation.

On this day, as usual, the meridians and acupoints of the human body were taught, and another master surnamed Liu explained them. In the middle of speaking, the hall door was pushed open, and a disciple of the Heavenly Star Sect led a young man in. The disciple bowed his hand to Master Liu and said, "Excuse me, Master Liu, this is a new protégé of my martial arts academy, he has just passed the test and can join the Shenglong group, and the disciple specially brought him to meet the master." ”

Master Liu sighed, looked at the young man, and said, "I just passed the Ascending Dragon Ancestor test, that is a good foundation in martial arts, what is your name?"

The young man saluted and said respectfully, "Hello Master Liu, the disciple's name is Li Longyan." ”

Master Liu nodded, pointed to a seat, and asked him to take a seat.

Xia Fan looked at Li Longyan, and was so surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that this young man would pass the test of the Shenglong group as soon as he came, and it seemed that he came with art.

After the lecture, Xia Fan found Li Longyan and said, "Li Gongzi, it turns out that you are a master of art investment, what kind of martial arts did you originally learn?"

Li Longyan said: "Senior Brother Xia just call me Senior Brother Li." I originally invited a few martial artists in my family and taught me kung fu for a few years, these kung fu are very miscellaneous, and I didn't practice at home, and I can only say that I am lucky to pass the test today. ”

Xia Fan shook his head and said, "It can't be said to be luck, these tests can't be passed without strength." For example, if you want to split a piece of wood with the thickness of your forearm, you can't do it with one palm. It seems that you are very strong. ”

Li Longyan said with a smile: "It was this test that made my palm still hurt." All of you in the Shenglong group can split, and I'm still far behind. ”

As he was talking, Master Liu came over and said to Xia Fan: "Xia Fan, this new disciple, you will teach him the introductory kung fu of Tianxingmen, teach him all three sets of boxing techniques, and practice with all the disciples in the future." ”

Xia Fan looked at Li Longyan and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Li, are you willing to learn from me?"

Li Longyan said: "Senior brother can't ask for it, please teach Senior Brother Xia more." ”

Xia Fan said: "Okay, I'll be your teacher for a few days for the time being, and teach you a few sets of boxing techniques." Actually, I can't learn it myself, so let's study together. ”

Suddenly, I heard a person next to me say in a cold voice: "I have a little self-knowledge, I teach newcomers before I learn home, beware of misleading people's children!"

When Xia Fan looked back, he saw that the person who spoke was Shangguan Junfeng.

Snorted, Xia Fan ignored it and said to Li Longyan: "Senior Brother Li, don't worry, since Master asked me to teach you, I will definitely do my best to learn and teach you, if you encounter any questions that I don't understand, we will ask Master together." All in all, you're going to learn!"

Li Longyan said: "Okay, I believe in Senior Brother Xia. ”

In the next few days, Li Longyan came every day, in addition to listening to the master's teaching, he learned the Tianxingmen boxing method from Xia Fan.

The disciples of the Tianxing Martial Arts Academy learned three sets of introductory boxing techniques, namely the Seven Star Long Fist, the Eighteen-Style Flying Phoenix Fist and the Broken Stone Palm, Xia Fan taught them one by one, and after five days, Li Longyan had learned all these three sets of boxing techniques.

Xia Fan was amazed, many people couldn't even learn a set of boxing techniques in five days, this Senior Brother Li learned three sets in five days, and he never forgot it, he was really amazingly talented.

Compared with him, he is also greatly inferior.

While they were practicing martial arts, the Shangguan often watched from a distance, and when he saw that Li Longyan was making rapid progress, his face became more and more gloomy.

In the afternoon of this day, it was time for group training again, Xia Fan and Li Longyan worked together to guide the dismantling technique.

Xia Fan taught very carefully, explaining the essentials of attack and defense one move at a time; Li Longyan also learned very seriously, following Xia Fan's guidance to see the moves, and gradually became proficient.

After practicing for half an hour, Xia Fan was a little tired, and said to Li Longyan: "Senior Brother Li, let's rest for a while and practice again." ”

Li Longyan nodded in agreement. The two of them found a place to sit down. Xia Fan saw that Li Longyan was fine, but it was a little strange, the two started practicing together, and after half an hour, he was so tired that his back and legs hurt, but this new junior brother was as usual, and his physical strength seemed to be stronger than his own.

He quietly asked, "Senior Brother Li, have you ever cultivated internal strength?"

Li Longyan said: "No! I heard that internal strength is a very profound thing, and I have never practiced it." One of my masters taught me some meditation and breathing skills, and it was just to help me fall asleep. ”

Xia Fan said: "Ah, maybe that's internal strength, no wonder your physical strength is so good! I'm tired, you're not tired." Alas, the Heavenly Star Sect also has advanced internal skills, but we are not yet official disciples of the Heavenly Star Sect and cannot cultivate. Master Hong taught some simple breathing and breathing techniques, and although I practiced them for two years, it didn't really work. ”

Suddenly, a person next to him said coldly: "I'm useless, but I blame the master for teaching it, Xia Fan, I think you teach others, it's really a mistake." Who is that, Li Longyan, you can't learn anything from him, so it's better for me to teach you. ”

As soon as he heard this voice, he didn't have to look back, he knew that it was Shangguan Junfeng. Xia Fan stood up and said angrily: "Shangguan Junfeng, what do you mean?"

Shangguan said lazily: "It's not interesting, it's just that I can't bear to see my newcomer to the Martial Arts Academy being taught badly by you." Senior Brother Li, you have been practicing for a long time just now, he is too tired, you are fine, obviously stronger than him. Learning martial arts from such a weak person, you will only get worse and worse. ”

Xia Fan didn't laugh angrily, and said, "Senior Brother Shangguan, in this way, you are much stronger than me, so why don't we take this opportunity to have a discussion?"

The two of them had fought three times before, all of them were comparable, it was not easy for Xia Fan to win against him, but Shangguan wanted to win, but there was little hope.

Moreover, Shangguan's family also invited a martial artist to teach internal skills, and his internal skills are much stronger than Xia Fan's, but even so, he still struggled with Xia Fan to fight.

This is also the reason why he has always been afraid of Xia Fan, the master once said that Xia Fan is very talented in martial arts, and he has long felt uneasy in his heart.

This time, Li Longyan not only made rapid progress in learning fist and foot kung fu, but also seemed to have learned internal skills, and he felt that it was inappropriate and wanted to try Li Longyan's depth.

Shangguan snorted and said, "It's boring to fight with you." Senior Brother Li, I see that you have a good foundation in martial arts, how about the two of us?"

Li Longyan glanced at Xia Fan, nodded to Shangguan and said, "It's okay, I'll ask Senior Brother Shangguan for advice." ”

Shangguan Junfeng stepped forward, secretly lucky, and with a snort of his right palm, he didn't make any moves, so he hit Li Longyan directly in the chest.

He used fifty percent of his internal force in this palm, and if the other party had no internal force to resist, no matter what tricks he used, he would not be able to stand up to his palm.

Xia Fan was taken aback, for fear that Li Longyan would not be able to resist it, and shouted, "Senior Brother Li, flash quickly!"

Li Longyan glanced at it, and from the other party's posture and the sound of the palm, he had already estimated the strength of this palm. He swung his right palm out, and with a bang, his palms intersected, and the two of them each took a step back.

Shangguan Junfeng sighed and said, "That's good! Try it again!"

This palm he used seventy percent of his strength, and Li Longyan also slapped it with one palm, this time the palm force intersected, Shangguan Junfeng stood still, but Li Longyan took three steps back.

Shangguan Junfeng smiled and said, "I see! Okay, you can practice, I'll go." ”

Xia Fan said: "Shangguan, you just said that you want to teach Senior Brother Li martial arts, why are you leaving?"

Shangguan sneered and said, "I still have something to do, I don't have time, you love to teach him, so continue to teach." ”

He tried to find out that Li Longyan really learned a little internal skills, but he was not as good as himself, and he made up his mind. As for teaching martial arts and teaching him a fart, Lao Tzu still thinks that the opponent is not enough?

Xia Fan frowned and looked at him going away, shook his head, and said to Li Longyan: "This person is so virtuous, you don't have to pay attention to him." You weren't hurt by that palm just now, were you?"

Li Longyan smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, it's okay." I think Senior Brother Shangguan showed mercy and didn't hurt me. ”

Xia Fan said: "He is testing you, if you surpass him in martial arts, you will be excluded by him." You don't have too much contact with this kind of person in the future, this person is narrow-minded, and he will not have half of the love for the newcomer except for his own group. ”
