Crisis Brought by the Martial Arts School War! Flying Eagle Movement Technique!

A night passed.

Five in the morning.

Qin Wang woke up feeling refreshed and full of vigor.

He discovered that lately, thanks to eating well and taking Qi and Blood Pills, Blood Strengthening Pills, and Blood Strengthening Soup, his physique had improved greatly. Though he still looked lean, his bones and sinews had grown thicker and sturdier, and his muscles bulged in knots.

Combined with his training in Ancestor's Long Fist, taking down three or four grown men would not be a problem.

First, I'll train Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation.

After washing up, Qin Wang shut the door, took out the Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation manual, and began cultivating.

Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation.

It had four illustrations.

According to the annotations, one had to cultivate along the meridians in the first illustration. Only upon sensing qi within the qi sea of the lower abdomen's dantian could one be considered initiated.

The intelligence says I'll enter Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation in six days. I have to cultivate with everything I've got.

Qin Wang looked at the Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation manual in his hands and silently made up his mind.

He had to work hard at both Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation and Ancestor's Long Fist.

The first illustration.

Starting from the qi sea in the abdomen, one silently sensed for qi with one's awareness. Once that sensation was found, one could use one's will to guide it upward through the meridian diagram of the first illustration and begin cultivating Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation.

Qin Wang cultivated until nearly seven o'clock without sensing any qi, but he was not disappointed.

With the Intelligence Panel showing him the way, he could see hope!

After packing everything up, he went to Yangji Breakfast Stall on the street for breakfast.

He ordered five large meat buns and a bowl of rice noodles in soup, then began eating.

"Did you hear? Yesterday by the Black River, the River God flew into a rage, raised enormous waves, and devoured more than ten fishermen from Qingniu Town! The county yamen's Deputy Chief Constable led the constables there, and County Magistrate Lord Chen went as well!"

"I heard. The shaman said the River God was dissatisfied with the sacrifices, and that the offerings would have to be increased this year to quell the River God's wrath!"

"More offerings? Won't the number of virgin boys and girls have to multiply several times over this year?"

"..."

Just then, Qin Wang heard the discussion of four diners at the next table.

The River God is enraged?

And they want more virgin boys and girls?

Qin Wang thought of the River God Festival, then of Qin Xuemei. A sense of urgency rose in his heart. He hurriedly finished the rice noodles, grabbed his buns, and headed for Flying Eagle Martial Arts School.

Before long.

Qin Wang arrived at Flying Eagle Martial Arts School. Taking out his wooden token, he entered the school's training ground.

"Junior Brother Qin, you came at just the right time. Senior Brother Lin is about to teach the footwork and evasive movement techniques."

The moment Qin Wang reached the training ground, Senior Brother Zhang Hao ran over and spoke to him.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhang!"

Qin Wang smiled at Zhang Hao and followed him to the left side of the training ground. There, he saw a brawny young man of around twenty-seven or twenty-eight, his calves wrapped in leg bindings. With a gentle expression, the young man explained while demonstrating shifts, turns, and leaps.

"Our Flying Eagle Movement Technique was derived from the flight paths of flying eagles. It is divided into nine forms."

"I will now teach you the first three forms: Fledgling Eagle Spreads Wings, Rabbit Starts, Falcon Lands, and Eagle's Gaze, Wolf's Stride."

"Master the first three forms within three months, and you may be taught the fourth through sixth forms!"

"Everyone, follow me. We will start slowly, then speed up."

Lin Yunfeng swept his gaze across the five young men and women around him, demonstrating each movement step by step.

"Senior Brother Lin, a newcomer has arrived. This is Junior Brother Qin Wang!"

"Junior Brother Qin, this is Senior Brother Lin Yunfeng. He is specifically responsible for teaching movement techniques to new disciples!"

Zhang Hao introduced Qin Wang and Lin Yunfeng to each other.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Lin!"

Qin Wang stepped forward and cupped his fists in salute.

"Mm. Stand with them. There are six new disciples today, so I'll show you the movement technique of our Flying Eagle Martial Arts School!"

Lin Yunfeng nodded to Qin Wang and the five young men and women beside him. With a flick of his robe hem and a spread of his arms, he rose from the ground like a flying eagle and landed steadily atop a perimeter wall more than one zhang high.

"What I just performed was the first form, Fledgling Eagle Spreads Wings!"

Lin Yunfeng leaped back down, his face unflushed and his breath steady, utterly at ease.

"What incredible lightness skill!"

"Gasp! That's too amazing! He went straight up that high wall!"

"Truly impressive!"

Seeing Lin Yunfeng use his lightness skill to leap so high, the junior brothers and sisters present all cheered excitedly.

This lightness skill really is something!

Coming to Flying Eagle Martial Arts School was the right choice!

Qin Wang's eyes lit up as he watched Lin Yunfeng. This lightness skill was truly formidable. This was exactly the dream of vaulting over eaves and scaling walls, of roaming the martial world with a sword like a wandering hero!

Next.

Qin Wang and the five new disciples followed Lin Yunfeng in practicing the three forms of the Flying Eagle Movement Technique, first familiarizing themselves with the movements of the three forms.

Qin Wang trained at Flying Eagle Martial Arts School until five in the afternoon before returning home.

On the way, he bought two Qi and Blood Pills at a branch of Xinglin Chun Pharmacy.

In the early hours of the morning.

Qin Wang examined his Intelligence Panel.

Today's Intelligence!

1: You practiced the Flying Eagle Movement Technique yesterday and obtained related intelligence. Your Flying Eagle Movement Technique will be initiated in 1 day.

4: You heard yesterday about the River God devouring fishermen and obtained related intelligence. The 'River God,' the Demon Flood Dragon, was seriously injured by a passing cultivator. With its egg-laying imminent, it had weakened to the extreme, which was why it would risk everything to devour humans and replenish its vital essence.

7: You practiced Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation yesterday and obtained related intelligence. Your Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation will be initiated in 4 days.

8: You saw Lin Yunfeng yesterday and obtained related intelligence. Lin Yunfeng failed to confess his feelings to the school master's daughter, Du Yunniang, tonight.

9: You went to Flying Eagle Martial Arts School yesterday and obtained related intelligence. Jiang Haitian, the master of Lightning Sword Martial Arts School, 'Lightning Sword,' was preparing to contact Lu Ming of Iron Cloth Martial Arts School and launch assassinations against Flying Eagle Martial Arts School disciples, forcing Flying Eagle Martial Arts School to close so they could carve up its territory.

Martial Arts: Ancestor's Long Fist (Initiated)

Progress: (528/800)

Effect: Agile footwork, long-range strikes and close-in attacks, powerful explosive force, skilled in close-quarters combat. Can reach minor mastery in two years.

If I train for one more day, the Flying Eagle Movement Technique can be initiated?

Qin Wang looked at the first piece of intelligence, thoughtfulness appearing in his eyes. Compared with Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation, it was much easier to get started. He had been especially envious of Senior Brother Lin's ability to leap onto a wall more than one zhang high.

What River God? So it's a Demon Flood Dragon!

It was seriously injured by a cultivator and plans to devour humans to recover?

Qin Wang's gaze flickered as he looked at the fourth piece of intelligence.

He had never believed in gods.

Wind and rain were simply the will of heaven. Besides, perhaps the Demon Flood Dragon had some cultivation and could control wind and rain, causing the common folk to believe the River God had manifested. All those virgin boys and girls thrown into the river year after year had been eaten by the Demon Flood Dragon.

It seems Qi and Blood Pills can increase the speed of my Minor Scarlet Sun Cultivation!

Qin Wang looked at the seventh piece of intelligence, deep in thought.

He ignored the eighth piece of intelligence.

Jiang Haitian, the master of Lightning Sword Martial Arts School, is joining forces with Lu Ming of Iron Cloth Martial Arts School to launch assassinations against Flying Eagle Martial Arts School disciples?

Damn it! My Flying Eagle Movement Technique is still one day away from being initiated!

Seeing the ninth piece of intelligence, Qin Wang immediately frowned. He had only just joined Flying Eagle Martial Arts School, and such a miserable thing had already happened. Could he be any more unlucky?

It really was not easy.

He could not lose his life just to learn a lightness skill.

I remember the first three forms anyway. I'll practice at home for the next few days, avoid the joint assassination campaign of the two martial arts schools, and observe the situation for a while before deciding.

Qin Wang silently made up his mind.

The other pieces of intelligence were not particularly relevant, so Qin Wang ignored them all.
