Donghua, Dechang University.
Jiang Yiyang had just finished his activities at the Martial Arts Club and returned to his dorm, drenched in sweat.
Ever since the Martial Hero Conference ended, Jiang Yiyang’s life had beco incredibly full. He was out from dawn till dusk almost every day.
Previously, among the many clubs at Dechang University, the Martial Arts Club had only been mid-sized and wasn’t given much attention by the school administration. Their activity space was just a small classroom, completely unsuitable as a training hall. It was usually used as a storage room for various equipnt, and training sessions were held in open areas near the campus.
And while the Martial Arts Club had a decent number of registered mbers, very few actually participated actively. Everyone knows the real reasons university students join clubs; it’s usually just a fleeting interest. The only ones who truly stuck with it were a dozen or two people.
However, after the Martial Hero Conference ended, the situation changed dramatically. Not only did the university president start paying direct attention, but the school administration also gave them the green light for everything, approving classrooms, equipnt, and funding. The number of students signing up for the club increased almost exponentially. Moreover, the new mbers were incredibly enthusiastic, attending virtually every event on ti.
The small classroom was replaced with a large activity hall, but the space was still far from enough. It got to the point where they had to go to the athletic field every day for Posture Stance practice. The large activity hall, in turn, was converted into a sparring room. In a short amount of ti, the entire Martial Arts Club was completely up and running properly.
As one of the leaders of the Martial Arts Club, and soone who had cultivated so real skill, Jiang Yiyang had been extrely busy lately. He was constantly training himself while also leading the club mbers in their practice.
But Jiang Yiyang, who was usually rather lazy, didn’t feel tired at all. On the contrary, he was buzzing with energy, as if he’d been pumped full of adrenaline.
Scenes from his ti in Modu, one mind-blowing spectacle after another, would frequently flash through his mind, filling his heart with a surging passion.
He knew full well that he could never cultivate to the incredible level of Body Ascension, but even taking a single step closer would be worth it.
Besides, the deeper he delved into his Martial Arts Dao cultivation, the more he could feel the spiritual transformation it brought him.
The constant drive for self-improvent and brave advancent, relentlessly tempering himself to reach a higher realm, made him believe that no difficulty in the world was insurmountable...
It was safe to say that his trip to Modu might just change his entire life.
After taking a shower, washing away the sweat, and changing into a fresh set of clothes, Jiang Yiyang turned on his computer and logged into his chat client.
The Martial Arts Club’s chat group was exceptionally lively. Because the club had so many mbers, a second group had recently been created, and both were flooded with "99 " unread ssage notifications.
"I heard the National Martial Arts Association is preparing to establish Donghua’s first official Martial Arts Academy. No idea if it’s true."
"I heard that too. They say experts from all the major dostic schools will be teaching there, and maybe even a master who has achieved Body Ascension. I just wonder what the admission requirents will be."
"Dream on. I heard it’s just a pilot program. They’ll probably only recruit masters at the Tonghui Internalization level or higher. Little newbies like us shouldn’t even think about it."
"..."
When Jiang Yiyang opened the chat, he saw everyone was discussing news about the Martial Arts Cultivation Realm.
It had to be said, a lot had been happening in Donghua lately. The winds of change were blowing across the entire country.
"Have you guys heard? It seems like Japan is copying us and holding a nationwide martial arts tournant. I think they’re already in the second round. Does anyone know what’s going on? I heard the Japan Martial Arts Realm is pretty strong."
Soone suddenly brought it up, instantly sparking a heated discussion among the group.
"The Japs are a serious threat. I heard that during the Martial Hero Conference in Modu, when Martial Artists from many countries entered, people from Japan were among them!"
"How can we just sit back and watch the Japs hold a tournant like this smoothly? They sent people to disrupt our conference, so we should send people over there too! But there hasn’t been any news at all."
"Sigh, I don’t think we can count on it. Our own conference just ended, and there’s still a lot to do. Besides, given the current international situation, this isn’t the first ti sothing like this has happened. You just get used to it."
"It’d be great if we could be assertive for once. Imagine our younger generation of Saint Experts going over there and wiping the floor with the Japs. Just thinking about it is exciting."
"..."
Everyone was sighing and lanting, and so started to fantasize.
’Those damned Japs just picked the right ti. If Mr. Yi, Fairy Zhou, and the others went to Japan, they’d definitely turn that so-called "All Martial Arts Conference" of theirs into a joke.’
Jiang Yiyang thought to himself. In fact, the few of them in the Martial Arts Club’s leadership had also been following Japan’s so-called All Martial Arts Conference on foreign websites.
’It’s been a while since I’ve heard any news about Mr. Yi and the others. I wonder what those masters have been up to lately. I’ll ask Senior Sister Shen later.’
Jiang Yiyang thought.
Shen Jiayue was a fanatical fan of Yi Beidou now. She had secretly joined all sorts of groups and was extrely well-inford.
Just then, Shen Jiayue suddenly popped up in the group chat.
"!!!!!"
"!!!!!"
"..."
Shen Jiayue didn’t type any words, just sent a series of exclamation points.
One row, two rows, three rows...
The chat was completely flooded by row after row of exclamation points.
