Chapter 8: The Five Beasts Fist
Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed as he was immediately drawn to a corner of the front yard. There, a massive iron cage housed a large striped tiger, which was currently lying down and dozing off. The striped tiger was about four meters long, exuding a formidable aura of power and intimidation. Its limbs were robust and muscular, exuding a formidable strength.
"Stop gawking and follow me!" The burly man said.
Jiang Ning retracted his gaze and nodded, then followed behind the burly man. They quickly passed through the front yard, and the two arrived at the back yard of the Martial Arts Academy.
Under the shade of a tree, a man with a large number of scars stood leaning on a wicker fan, fifty years old. Despite, his lean frame andly. his. four meters and a sturdy build... His posture was that of a long pony tail, and his face was filled with a sense of vigor. To one side, a tall and slender woman in a blue training suit stood.
The woman had her hair tied up in a high ponytail, her brows were filled with a sense of vigor, and her long swan neck was as white as snow. A single glance made it clear that her background was extraordinary.
"Are you Jiang Ning?" the wizened man opened his eyes and asked, looking at Jiang Ning.
"Yes!" Jiang Ning bowed and said, "I have met Master Wang."
."
"Not bad, not bad at all!" The man nodded slightly, looking at Jiang Ning with a hint of satisfaction.
"Come over here!" the man said.
Jiang Ning came forward upon hearing this, and the man got up.. The man placed his hand on Jiang Ning's shoulder and gave it a light shake. Jiang Ning felt a jolt of energy surge through his body from the shoulder, and for a moment, it felt as if his bones were about to disintegrate.
The man's hand quickly swept over Jiang Ning's arms, chest, and back. In just a few breaths, the examination was over, and the man sat back down in his bamboo chair.
"Your bones are somewhat weak, and your constitution isn't great, but practicing the basics of martial arts should be fine!" the man said.
Jiang Ning was not surprised by this assessment.
What kind of person was suitable for martial arts?
Someone with a large build and natural strength.
Or someone born with sturdy bones and a robust physique.
But Jiang Ning didn't fit any of these descriptions.
Despite this, he wasn't disappointed. His reliance wasn't on martial talent, but on the mysterious panel panel he the a the the panel.

on top of the ability to absorb the ordinary.
of martial arts were not in his's. and man opened, "Your mind is good, unperturbed by insults and flattery! You more thing, can you understand the will and perseverance!"
Then he asked, "Can you read?"
Jiang Ning nodded, "I can read!"
"Can you understand manuals?"" the man asked again.
Jiang Ning nodded once more, "I can understand!"
"Good, it's rare to have a disciple who can understand a manual! If one can't even comprehend a manual, how can they practice martial arts?" the man said with a hint of satisfaction. "Go and read the manuals a few times, try to memorize the meanings of the fist techniques, then come back to me!"
"Thank you, Master!" Jiang Ning bowed.
The man waved a hand, "Don't call me Master yet, let's wait until you pass the examination! When you join the academy, at best you'll be a probationary disciple, six months to pass the examination, you'll be dismissed!"
"Teaching the way, understand my martial arts, in my heart, I am a master to me!"" Jiang Ning said very seriously.
"Follow you!" the man waved his hand, then turned to the woman in the blue training suit beside him. "Li Qing, take him to my study and give him the Five Beasts Fist to read!"
"Yes!" the woman nodded, her gaze falling on Jiang Ning. "Call me Sister Li from now on!"
After leaving the back yard, the woman in the blue training suit spoke to Jiang Ning. "Jiang Ning, the goal of coming the academy is to pass the examination by Master Wang and become a true disciple of the academy!"
"Yes!" Jiang Ning nodded, with a kind smile.
"Do you know how to become a true disciple of the academy?" the woman asked as they walked.
Jiang Ning shook his head slightly, "I don't know, please enlighten me, Sister Li!"
"To become a true disciple, you must master the Five Beasts Fist and achieve a great accomplishment in any of its forms—tiger, bear, ape, crane, or deer—within six months. Even the children of wealthy families and clans find it challenging to reach great accomplishment within six months!" the woman continued.
"Sister Li, is great accomplishment hard to achieve?"" Jiang ning asked.
"Very hard! Even the children of rich families and great clans find it very difficult to reach great accomplishment in just six months! The Five Beasts Fist is a lower-level martial art, To reach great accomplishment in a form, you must have a high understanding! I took nearly five months to master the deer form of the Five Beasts Fist, and even with Master Wang's guidance, it took me nearly five months to understand the deer's form and achieve a great accomplishment in the deer form. the Five Beasts Fist. This more, with Master Wang's lack of guidance and less than the hundred spirit,. and more than five thousand source points. Still, you must understand the manual and perform the Five Beasts Fist and strive to the deer form of the Five Beasts Fist and achieve a great accomplishment in it deer form. Five Beasts Fist will be very difficult.
"Wow, Sister, you're so amazing!" Jiang Ning praised without reservation.
Hearing these words, a hint of a smile curled at the corner of the girl's mouth, a trace of pride showing.
Even in the inner city, becoming a direct disciple of Canglang Martial Academy was something worth boasting about.
Ever since she became Wang Jin's direct disciple, she could clearly feel that her status in the circle had greatly improved.
After all, Wang Jin was one of the top experts in Luo Shui County, not to mention the deeper identity behind him.
However, most people couldn't even dream of becoming Wang Jin's disciple, all because of his neutral faction and the identity he represented.
The girl spoke up, "Since you call me Sister, I'll do my best to guide you for the next six months. How much you can comprehend is up to your own understanding!"

"Thank you, Sister!" Jiang Ning sincerely expressed his gratitude.
There was no reason to refuse a connection with this Li Sister.
From what he had just seen of Li Sister standing by Wang Jin's side, he knew she was a core member of Canglang Martial Academy.
According to his understanding, anyone who passed the test of the Academy Head would soon become a ranked martial artist.
In other words, this seemingly youthful and beautiful girl might soon become a ranked martial artist, perhaps even already was one.
Moreover, judging by her extraordinary demeanor, she wasn't from an ordinary background, and her exceptional relationship with Wang Jin indicated an extraordinary origin.
Jiang Ning had no reason to refuse.
Seeing Jiang Ning's expression, the girl nodded in satisfaction and then instructed, "After learning the Five Beasts Fist, Jiang Little Brother must carefully study its true meaning. If you can become a true disciple of the Martial Academy like me, then you'll be qualified to receive Master Wang's true inheritance and understand why our academy is named Canglang Martial Academy!"
Jiang Ning's expression turned solemn as he nodded repeatedly, "Little Brother understands!"
"Good!" The girl nodded in satisfaction.
After a while, the two arrived at a secluded corner of the academy where a study was located.
"Wait for me outside!" The girl instructed.
Jiang Ning nodded.
The next moment, the girl pushed open the study door and stepped inside.
Jiang Ning quietly waited outside, his heart filled with anticipation.
The martial arts manual was within reach!
Moreover, it was a lower-grade manual of a ranked martial artist. According to his knowledge, even his older brother didn't possess such a manual, indicating its rarity.
At this moment, he understood why his brother insisted he join the academy; the gap between them was too vast.
A lower-grade manual of a ranked martial artist was merely a test of Canglang Martial Academy. If he could pass this test, according to the girl's words, he would truly access the academy's inheritance.
The name 'Canglang' undoubtedly represented the academy's true inheritance.
Jiang Ning's heart yearned for it.
In just over ten breaths' time...
Creak—
The room door reopened, and the girl reappeared before Jiang Ning.
"This is the manual of the Five Beasts Fist!" The girl handed him a slightly yellowed book, "Memorize everything in this manual over the next few days. If there's anything you don't understand, come find me. Once you've roughly memorized it, go see Master Wang. He'll personally demonstrate it for you!"
After speaking, she added, "Remember, this manual cannot leave the academy. Before leaving each day, you must return it to me."
Jiang Ning took the manual and flipped through it. He knew it wasn't thick.
He shook his head slightly, "Memorizing the manual won't take that long. Give me the time it takes to brew a cup of tea."
"The time it takes to brew a cup of tea?" The girl's eyebrows furrowed as she looked at Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning smiled and lightly touched his temple, "Sister Li, I have a natural ability to remember everything I read."
"In that case, I'll wait here for you! If you can really do it, I'll take you to see Master Wang, and we'll start learning the fist style today." The girl stood by with her arms folded, her breathing exuded a tranquil and serene aura, like a resting fawn in the forest.
Jiang Ning wasted no time. He opened the manual of the Five Beasts Fist and began studying it seriously from the first page.

Time slowly passed, and for a while, the small courtyard was filled with tranquility, only the sound of the wind rustling through the treetops and the rustling of leaves.
The girl stood there, tranquil and serene, and Jiang Ning naturally felt peaceful beside her.
