Chapter 242 Master of Xiao Pavilion?
"Wang Dong and I sparred in the backyard of Yuelai Inn for a few days. Shen Yanzhi would occasionally come to watch, and then he seemed to discover that I had just started learning martial arts!"
As soon as Wu Shuyun started speaking the first sentence, Jiang Wanwan already had a few more questions in her mind.
"How do you know he found out? Did he ask you?"
"I'm just guessing. He didn't say it explicitly, nor did he ask, but I get that feeling from his words and actions!" Wu Shuyun replied.
Jiang Wanwan nodded, "Okay! Go on."
"After sparring with Wang Dong for so many times, he gradually couldn't take a few moves from me. I thought about finding a new opponent. After thinking about it, I realized that there is no shortage of opponents in the martial arts world. It just takes some tricks to get others to agree to spar!"
"Then I thought of taking out a copy of the Tao Te Ching as bait and looking for an opponent among the customers who come to the store every day. However, it's hard to find a suitable opponent. Then Wang Dong gave me a suggestion. Later I thought, the idea must have come from Shen Yanzhi."
"So it means you can directly challenge the entire martial arts world?" Jiang Wanwan asked intently.
Wu Shuyun nodded and continued.
"Looking for a suitable opponent in a store might take one or two days, which is too inefficient. After careful consideration, I agreed to his proposal, thinking that if the person who came was too powerful, the worst that could happen was that I would have to pay him a copy of the Tao Te Ching and then end the event."
"I didn't expect that after Shen Yanzhi took over the task of arranging opponents, claiming he was familiar with Jianghu masters, he always arranged opponents who were at the critical point of my ability to deal with. In the end, I not only improved my strength to the greatest extent, but also defeated my opponents. To this day, I still haven't given away the Tao Te Ching!"
Oh?
Jiang Wanwan looked puzzled, frowning and thinking deeply.
After hearing what she had said before, she originally thought that Shen Yanzhi was just watching the fun, or that he had some ulterior motive.
Combined with the following words, it seems that Shen Yanzhi is doing a good thing, specifically to train Wu Shuyun?
But why did Shen Yanzhi go to so much trouble to do this? What was his plan?
At this time, Wu Shuyun came over and spoke mysteriously again.
"Also, through this incident, I actually have another guess in my mind. I think the boss of the mysterious organization Bai Xiao Pavilion in the martial arts world is Shen Yanzhi!"
Jiang Wanwan was startled when she heard this and asked curiously, "Why do you guess so?"
"It was Shen Yanzhi who helped spread the news that I was going to challenge the martial artists. It only took one night, and someone got the news and came to me the next day."
"It is also possible that Shen Yanzhi paid Baixiao Pavilion to spread the news!" Jiang Wanwan gave a possibility.
"What's the point of spending money? Besides, he's too well-informed about some things in the martial arts world, like the fact that someone discovered a top-notch martial arts secret manual from the Tao Te Ching!"
This is true!
Wang Dong also told them a few days in advance that a disciple of the Huangshan School had died from a pistol.
"Besides, isn't the Yuelai Inn, which is spread all over the world, a good place to collect and spread information?" Wu Shuyun said again.
Jiang Wanwan nodded and agreed with this statement.
So, Yuelai Inn and Baixiao Pavilion, two of the three mysterious organizations in the martial arts world, actually have the same boss?
Shen Yanzhi is really not a simple person!
Then Jiang Wanwan thought of another thing and sighed.
"However, I didn't expect that the Tao Te Ching could actually reveal secrets of martial arts."
"In fact, there are traces of this on Earth. I heard that Tai Chi was invented by Zhang Sanfeng from the Tao Te Ching and the Book of Changes." Wu Shuyun shrugged.
ah? real or fake?
Jiang Wanwan opened her eyes wide in surprise, taking in the rare new knowledge.
Afterwards, he finally remembered the important matter and asked worriedly.
"When is the sparring? Where? Are you sure?"
"Shen Yanzhi spread the news to everyone in the martial arts world, and many people came to challenge him. There is a match at 10:00 am and 3:00 pm every day, and the location is in the backyard of Yuelai Inn!" Wu Shuyun replied.
Twice a day?
Wow, the schedule is so tight, it feels like a class.
Jiang Wanwan took out her cell phone and took a look at it, then suddenly became anxious.
"It's already past nine o'clock, and there's less than an hour left. Are you sure? Do you want to practice for a while?"
Wu Shuyun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've read the information about both opponents today, I'm sure you can win!"
"The opponent's information?" Jiang Wanwan wondered.
"Well, Shen Yanzhi had Wang Dong send me information about the opponent's strength, battle record, weapons, and other skills in advance."
Is this... so thoughtful?
Jiang Wanwan just felt that the title of "Junior Master" that she was wearing should be given to Shen Yanzhi, right?
"What's your current martial arts prowess? A second-rate master?"
"My internal skills have reached the eighth level, and all other techniques have been perfected. My overall strength is firmly in the second-rate. If I give myself a few more days, I should be able to touch the threshold of the first-rate."
Eight...eighth floor?
If Jiang Wanwan remembered correctly, there are only ten levels of internal energy techniques, right?
Think about it, I just broke through the first level and entered the second level of internal strength. Are they practicing the same mental method?
All I can say is that people’s sorrows and joys are not the same.
Of course, Jiang Wanwan was still very happy for her clerk's growing ability.
At this moment, Wu Shuyun said with concern: "I'm afraid that before my strength reaches the first-class level, many masters will challenge me!"
Speaking of which, the news Wang Dong brought did add a lot of pressure to her.
After all, there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the world, and who knows what big fish will be caught by the Tao Te Ching?
If Shen Yanzhi can withstand the pressure and continue to follow the previous rhythm, allowing his opponent's strength to gradually increase, it would naturally be best if they can grow together with Wu Shuyun's strength.
But if too many masters come, Shen Yanzhi will not be able to bear the pressure and will put these masters in front.
Wu Shuyun, who had not yet grown up, had no choice but to admit defeat and hand over the Tao Te Ching.
"It's okay, just fight with confidence and protect yourself from getting hurt. If you really lose in the end, it's just like a copy of the Tao Te Ching. There are still as many as you want in the supermarket!" Jiang Wanwan said indifferently.
These words are the best reassurance for Wu Shuyun.
After Wu Shuyun nodded solemnly, he thought of something and spoke.
"By the way, the good news I mentioned before, the supermarket received 10 years of internal energy yesterday."
"Ah, that's really good news. It's just right that you absorbed it, so you can deal with the next battle!" Jiang Wanwan said happily.
Internal energy is a good thing for accelerating cultivation. This is the second time I have received it since the supermarket opened!
Wu Shuyun shook his head and said, "No, I mean to let you absorb it. When your strength increases, you will be able to travel through time more times every day!"
Jiang Wanwan was stunned after hearing this, and then she realized what Wu Shuyun was thinking.
As Jiang Wanwan's strength increases, the number of time she travels through time each day will increase. Everyone in the villa knows this.
There is no shortcut to acquiring superpowers, and one can only absorb the crystal core energy step by step.
But in terms of martial arts, the internal energy collected by the system is indeed a shortcut.
