Chapter 45: Grandmaster's Opportunity
Chapter 45: Grandmaster's Opportunity
In Shen Congyun's eyes, Wang Jin was not the strongest in Luo Shui County, but there were only a few who surpassed him.
However, Wang Jin was a true martial arts genius.
In the small county of Luo Shui, reaching the peak of the seventh stage of martial arts, just a step away from the sixth stage, was undoubtedly a sign of genius.
More importantly, Wang Jin was a naturally gifted individual, and he was of the same kind as Shen Congyun.
It was this unique quality that Shen Congyun truly valued in Wang Jin.
In his eyes, what did it matter if Wang Jin was over fifty, or if his physical abilities were declining, or if his breakthrough seemed hopeless?
Being of the same kind, a naturally gifted individual, was enough!
In just two months, Wang Jin had successfully entered the Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique, proving his abundant talent and earning Shen Congyun's attention.
By cultivating the Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique, Wang Jin's physical abilities would only improve.
With this, Wang Jin's breakthrough to the sixth stage of martial arts was within reach.
Shen Congyun's advanced cultivation methods in the Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique were enough for Wang Jin to cultivate to the level of Inner Strength Amplification, where his inner breath would be like a gale.
With Wang Jin's natural talent as a spiritually gifted individual, even with slow and steady effort, he could attract the essence of the sun's radiance and cultivate to the level of Thunder Sounds of the Five Viscera, with an inner breath like a gale and the realm of Inner Strength Amplification.
As Wang Jin's physical abilities improved, breaking through to the sixth stage of martial arts would be a natural progression.
Once he cultivated the Bone Forging Mastery and Inner Strength Amplification of the sixth stage, he could skip the fifth stage and directly enter the fourth stage of martial arts.
Such a high-level martial artist would be considered top-notch throughout the entire Great Xia.
With a stroke of luck and further progress, it was not impossible for him to attain the position of a Grandmaster in Great Xia.
Although this was only a one-in-ten-thousand chance, it was enough for Shen Congyun.
In his eyes, Wang Jin, at the very least, would become a sixth-stage martial artist.
Moreover, a sixth-stage martial artist who cultivated both internal and external skills would possess combat strength not inferior to some fifth-stage martial artists.
Additionally, Wang Jin had a two to three percent chance of entering the fourth stage of martial arts, making him a top-notch martial artist throughout Great Xia.
Even the possibility of becoming a Grandmaster was an extremely slim one-in-a-million chance.
If Wang Jin could attain the position of a Grandmaster, Shen Congyun would truly hit the jackpot.
The favor of a Grandmaster was invaluable.
Although this chance was only one in a million, among the so-called geniuses in the world, the possibility of becoming a Grandmaster was enough to astonish the world.
The might of a Grandmaster could rival an army of ten thousand, and their protection could ensure a sect's prosperity for a hundred years.
This was why Shen Congyun was willing to befriend Wang Jin, invest in him, and pay him a special visit today.
As the two conversed, they arrived at the backyard of the martial arts academy, where Wang Jin resided.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ning and the others had finished their meal.
Led by Cheng Ran, the two strolled through the front yard of the academy before returning to Jiang Ning's courtyard.
"It's a shame we didn't get to see Shen Congyun's true appearance," Cheng Ran said, sitting in front of Jiang Ning with a hint of regret.
Jiang Ning said, "The Pavilion Master and Shen Louzhu must have gone to the backyard. If you truly admire him, Cheng Shixiong, why not find a reason to go and see for yourself?"
"It's not admiration!" Cheng Ran laughed. "I've just heard that Wanhua Tower occasionally invests in martial arts geniuses. Anyone who catches their eye will receive their investment and support, which can take them far on their martial path."
"After all, Wanhua Tower has countless divine techniques and precious elixirs, and many strong cultivators. Compared to their resources, my family is no different from beggars."
"If I could catch Shen Congyun's eye, receive Wanhua Tower's investment and cultivation, I would truly soar!"
"Beating up Xiao Peng would be a piece of cake!"
"No, I should say that even if he doesn't meet my standards, he won't be on the same level as me, and in the future, he can only look up to my back."
At this point, Cheng Ran shook his head again.
"But forget it! Wanhua Tower only invests in genuine martial arts geniuses. The geniuses they invest in often have exceptional insight and roots, and they can enter the realm of martial arts within a year."
"The chances of them taking an interest in me are basically non-existent, so I can only think about it."
As Cheng Ran spoke, he shook his head, sighing to convince himself to face reality.
Upon hearing Cheng Ran's words, Jiang Ning's heart stirred slightly.
As Cheng Ran said, if he could receive investment and cultivation from Wanhua Tower, it would indeed be a significant help.
Especially during their weak period, it would be even more evident.
That would be like giving coal in the snow.
But after a brief moment of contemplation, he abandoned the idea that had tempted him.
Wanhua Tower was something he didn't understand at all.
He knew even less about Shen Congyun's character and personality.
Moreover, from the moment Shen Congyun arrived at the martial arts academy, he headed straight to the backyard with Wang Jin, clearly having other important matters to attend to rather than coming here for the so-called investment.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ning shook his head secretly.
[Five Beasts Fist Experience +1]
After finishing a set of fist techniques, under the noon sun, Jiang Ning's body was already drenched in sweat.
The correct version is available at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar.
[Skills]: Five Beasts Fist (Minor Mastery 51/500)
"No unexpected gains!"
Looking at the prompt in front of him, it was still the Five Beasts Fist with a slight increase in experience points, causing Jiang Ning to shake his head secretly.
After sparring with Cheng Ran in the morning, he felt he had gained a bit in his Five Beasts Fist techniques. However, after continuously practicing and verifying the moves, there was still no change in the experience points he acquired.
"Great Success is indeed not that simple!"
Jiang Ning shook his head secretly.
Then, he clenched his fist again, feeling that there was still some residual strength within his body.
"After entering the Inner Alchemy Cultivation Technique, my stamina has greatly increased, and the number of times I can practice fist techniques every day has indeed increased significantly."
"Just this morning, I practiced seven sets of fist techniques."
"After lunch, I practiced three sets of fist techniques in a row, and I still feel there's some strength left."
"After enhancing my internal organs, it's indeed completely different."
"If I have wild ginseng as a supplement, my fist practice efficiency will increase further."
"If I can observe the tiger later and comprehend its essence and form, grasping the essence of the Tiger Fist Great Success, that would be even better."
"Before my Five Beasts Fist reaches Great Success, the experience points I gain from practicing each set of fist techniques can still double."
"This way, my strength will undoubtedly increase rapidly."
The next moment, his vital energy surged within him, instantly circulating through his right arm, and more than half of his left arm as well.
"Not far from circulating through both arms!"
"As my vital energy strengthens, my power should have surpassed two hundred and fifty jin by now."
After that, Jiang Ning rested for a moment, just about to continue practicing his fists.
"Jiang Shidi! Jiang Shidi!!" Cheng Ran rushed in, full of urgency.
Jiang Ning had just started his fist technique when he stopped.
"Brother Cheng is in such a hurry, has something happened in the front courtyard?"
Cheng Ran paused, "Jiang Shidi didn't hear the commotion in the front courtyard? Sister Li Qing just returned. She has successfully entered the Martial Dao Entry Rank, and Second Brother Zhao Hu is also here. His Tiger Form Fist has reached perfection, and he has mastered the Tiger Power."
"Perfection?" Jiang Ning's face showed surprise.
Cheng Ran nodded, "Yes, it's indeed perfection. Brother Zhao Hu said he wants to demonstrate a set of Tiger Form Fist at the perfection level. Jiang Shidi, hurry up and come with me to the front courtyard to observe."
"Good!" Jiang Ning immediately dismissed the idea of practicing his fists. He was also very curious about the Tiger Form Fist at the perfection level.
A new week, seeking monthly votes! Thank you!
