Rise from a Low-class Family to Martial Artist Chapter 338 - 106: Jiang Duanchao: My Spear Has Never Failed

Inside an academy.

A man in a green robe pointed a finger, and endless sword qi spread out, causing dozens of bronze n around him to fall.

The man in green retracted his finger, looked at the fallen bronze n, and furrowed his brows slightly.

"Not enough, still too slow!"

The man in green murmured to himself. The next mont, he turned around, only to see two n entering the hall.

The two n looked at the fallen bronze n and, after scrutinizing for a mont, one of them spoke, "Junior Brother Pei, why be so persistent? If you are willing to change your martial path, you would have long broken through this barrier."

"More than just breaking through this barrier; Junior Brother Pei, if you had agreed earlier, you would already be in the Third Grade Realm by now."

Pei Qingming listened to their words and smiled without speaking.

"Junior Brother Pei, neither of us denies the grand talent and wisdom of the Grand Ancestor Emperor of Liang, nor do we deny that the martial path of Liang is indeed thriving now, but Liang’s martial path focuses on the prosperity of the whole, not the individual."

The man on the left earnestly advised, "With your martial talent, Junior Brother Pei, if you joined our An Kingdom, reaching the First Grade within ten years wouldn’t be an issue."

"Junior Brother Pei, with our talent, we should pursue the ultimate in martial arts and experience the pinnacle of the martial path. Now that the world is at peace and there haven’t been any wars among the Nine Kingdoms, joining An Kingdom is rely for martial arts cultivation, not to betray Liang."

"Even if war truly breaks out in the future, you can return to Liang, Junior Brother Pei, and with your martial prowess, diating between the two countries wouldn’t be impossible."

Pei Qingming remained silent.

"Ah, Junior Brother Pei, how can there be national distinctions in martial arts? The martial arts of the Nine Kingdoms have reached their current stage because generations of predecessors have assimilated the essence of the Nine Kingdoms’ martial arts and continuously achieved breakthroughs. Thus, the Nine-Grade System was ford. Five hundred years ago, the strongest martial artist only reached the Third Grade. Besides you, are there any other noteworthy talents in Liang?"

"Thank you for your kind intentions, Senior Brothers, I appreciate it, but please do not persuade further on this matter."

Seeing Pei Qingming’s resolute attitude, the two n ceased their attempts to persuade him and bid farewell.

"No national distinctions in martial arts?"

Watching the two leave, Pei Qingming gently shook his head; it was not that simple.

When you accept favors, you owe allegiance.

If you truly joined An Kingdom, how easy would it be to leave?

If there were no national distinctions in martial arts, then in the Liang Calendar year 146, during the final crackdown on the Demon Race within Liang’s borders, An Kingdom would not have sent three First Grade martial powerhouses into Liang to retrieve the flood dragon that had plagued a hundred thousand citizens of Liang.

Perhaps it was ti to leave the Martial Arts Academy of An Kingdom.

Just as the thought of leaving crossed Pei Qingming’s mind, an expression of realization appeared on his face as he reached for the jade pendant at his waist.

Feeling the scorching heat from the jade pendant at his waist, Pei Qingming smiled.

Who said Liang would be devoid of geniuses after ? Without geniuses, how could my na engraved on Martial Arts Mountain be surpassed?

Jiangnan Dao’s Lin Chen!

What a good na!

The martial path of my Liang has successors.

...

...

Linhu Village.

Lin Chen listened to his teacher recount Senior Pei’s deeds, mouth slightly agape, utterly shocked.

This Senior Pei was even more terrifying than Scholar Jiang.

He left his na on Martial Arts Mountain five tis, began cultivation at fifteen, reached Entering the Grade at seventeen, Eighth Grade at nineteen, Seventh Grade at twenty-one, Sixth Grade at twenty-four, Fifth Grade at twenty-seven, Fourth Grade at thirty-two...

Now, he’s likely not far from the Third Grade.

There’s a high possibility of setting the record for entering the Third Grade at thirty-five in Liang, making him the greatest martial talent in Liang in three hundred years.

I actually defeated this Senior Pei at the Opening Acupoints Realm.

Besides his shock, Lin Chen suddenly understood; no wonder, at the Opening Acupoints Realm with twenty acupoints, using every ans necessary, victory was so difficult to achieve. It turns out there was a formidable boss like Pei Qingming.

If Lin Chen was shocked, then Liu Ru was astounded.

Pei Qingming was the Opening Acupoints Realm’s hidden figure in the twenty acupoints, a fact he’d forgotten, but Lin Chen’s achievent of leaving his na on Martial Arts Mountain three tis was no ordinary feat; he was a genius comparable to Pei Qingming, at least in the Opening Acupoints Realm.

"Lin Chen, since you’ve signed your na with our Canglan Martial Arts Academy, why not co with to Canglan Martial Arts Academy and get acquainted ahead of ti?"

Liu Ru knew well that leaving one’s na on Martial Arts Mountain three tis was enough to bring back Ye Yuan and his group, but with a little mockery and ntioning that Lin Chen had already signed the Disciple Letter of the academy, he still had the confidence to make them retreat.

But Lin Chen defeated Pei Qingming. If he were Ye Yuan or any of those people, he wouldn’t care about face.

Face?

Not important in front of such a genius.

"Go to Canglan Martial Arts Academy?"

Lin Chen was montarily stunned, seeing Instructor Liu’s expression, he understood imdiately.

Instructor Liu was afraid other academies would co and that he might regret it later, thus wanting to bring him to Canglan Martial Arts Academy first.

"Junior Brother Liu, Lin Chen likely cannot go to Canglan Martial Arts Academy now."

Jia Nanzhu beside him chuckled, noticing Liu Ru’s puzzled look, he explained, "Back when Lin Chen left his na on Martial Arts Mountain twice, the Military Affairs Departnt didn’t make it public because they were also waiting. If Lin Chen could leave his na three tis on Martial Arts Mountain, soone from the Military Affairs Departnt would personally co to Jiangnan Dao to et Lin Chen."

"Soone from the Military Affairs Departnt personally coming?"

Liu Ru frowned. For this forr Deputy Hall Chief of Jiangnan Dao Martial Affairs Hall to ntion it, the official from the Military Affairs Departnt must be a significant figure.

It seems Lin Chen really won’t be leaving.

"Instructor Liu, in the upcoming period, I will focus on cultivation, striving to break through more realms in Opening Acupoints, and unless absolutely unavoidable, I won’t et with anyone else."
