Chapter 10 Green Smoke
Chapter 10 Green Smoke
Looking at the illegible handwriting on his hand, Lu Lin felt puzzled.
"Mr. Hou, I am currently cultivating the Golden Bell Shield, but it doesn't say that I can only cultivate this for the rest of my life."
"I also want to learn palm techniques and fist techniques, and I want to reach the Skin Refining level and become a martial artist."
"To become a warrior?"
A hint of mockery appeared on Mr. Hou's expressionless face.
"You will never become a warrior."
Lu Lin sensed a strong sense of malice.
So what if I didn't become his disciple? Is it really necessary to treat me like this?
Regardless of Lu Lin's own aptitude, just considering his divine seed characteristic of being able to grow infinitely and without any upper limit, Lu Lin will definitely be able to reach the pinnacle of martial arts in this world.
However, Lu Lin would naturally not tell Mr. Hou this.
"Master Liu, please take me inside."
Liu Cheng looked at Mr. Hou, then at Lu Lin, unsure of what to do.
Mr. Hou seemed to sense his predicament and strolled away.
Instead of entering the martial arts school, he headed out of the city.
In the blink of an eye, Mr. Hou disappeared, and Liu Cheng then led Lu Lin into the martial arts hall.
Just as Lu Lin had imagined, there were quite a few people practicing inside the martial arts hall.
Lu Lin's entrance did not cause any commotion. After Liu Cheng registered Lu Lin's name, place of origin, and age, he led him into the martial arts training area.
Little did they know, no sooner had they left than Mr. Hou appeared in the room.
He looked at the information Lu Lin had registered, his eyes gleaming.
……
"Brother Lu Lin, this is Senior Brother Song, this is Senior Brother Li, this is Senior Brother Qian, and this is..."
Lu Lin was pulled into a circle by Liu Cheng, which consisted of more than a dozen people. Liu Cheng introduced the names of these martial artists to Lu Lin one by one.
"Brother Lu Lin, they have both honed their skills at the Martial Apprentice level for many years, but neither of them has been able to reach the Skin Refining stage."
"I trained hard with them for a long time before, and I was lucky enough to break through."
"If you don't mind, you can accompany them in their cultivation for a while."
These men were mostly in their thirties, and even the youngest was five or six years older than Lu Lin.
Their muscles were bulging and powerful. Although they varied in height and weight, they all exuded an aura of gloom and twilight.
"Don't worry, Master Liu, I will definitely train you well."
These people had practiced diligently for a long time and were excellent at helping Lu Lin improve his skills.
Their strength and combat experience are in no way inferior to Liu Cheng's, who is skilled in skin refining; they are only slightly inferior in terms of defense, aura, stamina, and explosive power.
"Kid, if you want to spar with us, you'd better be prepared to break your bones and snap your tendons."
Senior Brother Song wanted to give Lu Lin a hard time, so he punched Lu Lin in the chest first.
To everyone's surprise, Lu Lin neither dodged nor avoided the attack, but instead took it head-on.
Why didn't you dodge?
Senior Brother Song meant no harm; he just wanted to test Lu Lin's strength, fearing that Lu Lin might hurt him.
Lu Lin grabbed his wrist and pushed him backward.
"Senior brother, if that's all the strength you have, I'm afraid... you can't even tear my clothes."
What?!
Senior Brother Song is in his early twenties, a time when he is full of energy.
How could he bear such humiliation from Lu Lin? He immediately flew into a rage and threw a punch forward.
Lu Lin easily parried the attack.
bang bang.
Half an hour later, Senior Brother Song was panting heavily and had no choice but to give up.
"You're a monster."
Lu Lin ignored him and looked around at the other martial artists who were already stunned. "Who's next?"
"I'll do it!"
A man jumped into the arena, but soon, like Senior Brother Song, he couldn't even stand steadily and had to step back to rest.
Lu Lin didn't rest for a single minute all afternoon.
Liu Cheng's dozen or so brothers took turns fighting, but they were all defeated after Lu Lin exhausted them.
"Master Liu, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
"Okay, okay, I'll take you!"
"No need, I know the way back."
Lu Lin waved his hand, leaving a group of people dumbfounded.
After a long while, Senior Brother Song finally asked, "Acheng, where did you find this freak?"
"The Chen family! Brother Lu Lin is the sparring partner for several young masters of the Chen family, let me tell you..."
At this point, Liu Cheng immediately perked up. He recounted how he had first met Lu Lin and how Lu Lin had repeatedly refused Mr. Hou's invitations this morning, adding fuel to the fire and making everyone gasp in surprise as if they were listening to a storyteller.
……
The days that followed were quite ordinary.
Lu Lin sparred with Chen at his residence in the morning and went to the martial arts school in the afternoon.
Over time, he also realized that the martial arts school was not personally run by Mr. Hou. He was just someone who had nothing better to do and casually found some apprentices with a passion for martial arts to pass the time.
The martial artists in the school could only address him as Mr. Hou, and would not call him Master.
Before we knew it, it was the third day of the fifth lunar month.
The weather is getting warmer.
Because of his diligent and effective martial arts training, Chen Hongzhi, the fourth young master, was granted a three-day leave by Chen Dingkun.
Chen Hongzhi finally found the time and pulled Lu Lin out of the Chen residence: "What you say today doesn't count. I, Chen Hongzhi, am not a man of my word. Today I will take you to transfer the ownership of the courtyard."
Although Lu Lin was not in a hurry, he could not keep up with Chen Hongzhi's eagerness.
He had promised Lu Lin a small courtyard house long ago, but he had been busy cultivating these days and had been unable to keep his promise.
It wasn't difficult to go to the government office to complete the transfer of ownership of the courtyard. In less than half an hour, Lu Lin received a land deed stamped with the official seal of Jinshan Prefecture.
"From now on, I am a homeowner."
Lu Lin smiled.
"Haha, if you develop well in the future, I'll have my mother find you a good marriage. Only then will you be able to truly settle down and thrive in Jinshan Prefecture."
"Come on, we're happy today, I'll take you for a drink."
Seeing Lu Lin happy, Chen Hongzhi was also overjoyed.
"No need, I have to go to Mr. Hou's martial arts gym this afternoon to spar with him."
Lu Lin refused repeatedly.
"Oh, I forgot. I'll come find you again tonight!"
After they parted ways, Lu Lin went straight to the martial arts school.
He had been at the martial arts school for over a month, and the disciples there were all familiar with Lu Lin, greeting him warmly.
Lu Lin is now training not only with martial artists who have been unable to advance, but also with some martial artists at the Skin Refining level.
Lu Lin naturally wouldn't refuse.
This is all the skill that has propelled his growth.
"what!"
"Aaaaaah!!!"
While Lu Lin was sparring with his partner, he suddenly heard an excited roar from the side.
Brother Song, who had just been meditating and resting, suddenly leaped up, waving his arms and legs excitedly, "Ah, ahhh, I did it, I did it!"
"Senior Brother Song, what did you achieve?"
"A brute!"
Senior Brother Song was overjoyed, tears streaming down his face. "I, Song Tiangang, have finally become a martial artist! Hahaha, Heaven has eyes! Heaven has eyes!"
Suddenly, Senior Brother Song saw Lu Lin, rushed over and hugged him tightly.
"Good brother, I'm so glad I didn't give up, and I'm so glad I had your help."
"Waaaah, thank you so much!"
Senior Brother Song's tears soaked Lu Lin's shoulder.
Lu Lin paused for a moment before patting Senior Brother Song on the back.
To everyone's surprise, Senior Brother Song suddenly released him and loudly announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight at Qingyan Tower, it's my treat, Song Tiangang! Eat well, drink well, have fun, and don't leave until you're completely drunk!"
