"Okay, Lord Fu Hua, I'll do it right away."
With that, Cui Ji quickly closed the door and returned to her room to start packing.
She sat down on the sofa and waited for a while.
A white-haired girl in a white T-shirt walked out.
She stood nervously in front of Fu Hua, like a child who had made a mistake.
"Ahem, Cui Ji."
"I'm here, Lord Fu Hua."
"Ah~ Have these past few days been comfortable for you?"
"Of course, Lord Fu Hua, I've been doing very well."
"Mmm..."
Nodding, Fu Hua began to speak again.
"Although I haven't asked you to do anything, you can't just stay in your room and not come out."
"Never mind your room, with those posters and photos of Anbi all over the walls, I don't even know where you got them from."
"Just looking at your current state, I can't see any trace of the soldier you used to be."
Hearing this, Cui Ji's face instantly turned red, and she shyly lowered her head.
"Well, I told you, I'm not good at fighting, Lord Fu Hua, and before, in the Silver Army.
I was only in a military role."
"If that's the case, then don't call me 'Lord' anymore. Tomorrow, come with me to train."
"It's better than being cooped up in your room. Besides, if we go out to take on commissions, you might even meet your captain."
"Ah, this, I have no objections, but, Lord Fu Hua, should I call you Master then?"
"That's fine too, whatever you prefer."
"Master, after I learn martial arts from you, will I be as strong as you?"
Fu Hua stroked her chin and replied, "I don't know, but you'll definitely be much stronger than you are now."
"Then can I become as strong as Captain Anby?"
"That depends on your effort."
"Master, what sect or school are we from?"
Fu Hua was silent for a long time, looking at Cui Ji's expectant eyes.
"Taixu Sect. You are, consider yourself the ninth disciple."
"Eh!? Is there really such a thing?"
"No more. The Taixu Sect is no more. If you have to say it, then it's this."
Sensing the emotion in Fu Hua's words, Cui Ji nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"Alright, it's settled. You can go and do your own thing for now."
"Yes, Master..."
Cui Ji returned to her room, leaving Fu Hua alone in the living room.
What profound thoughts was she pondering at this moment?
"Hiss~ Could that box of papaya milk really work?! I feel like I've... gotten a lot bigger."
Looking down at her chest, Fu Hua was a little surprised.
"Recently, because I've been taking on commissions and earning income, I definitely have enough money to spin the gacha.
And I've also obtained the Shadow Knight: Moonbreaker form."
It's just that... the best thing on this turntable right now is still papaya milk.
I've already stockpiled several boxes in my system inventory. Is the intention of this turntable to fulfill my obsession?
Is it possible that there are many rewards on the turntable, but your luck is just too bad, so you can only draw papaya milk?
The next day, at the park in Guangying Plaza.
Fu Hua pulled Cui Ji over.
"Hua, my girl, I've been researching here for a while. Want to play a round later?"
"Old Man Wang, it might have to wait a bit. You go ahead and play first."
"Whose girl is this? Is she your friend?"
"Mm, sort of a disciple."
"Oh~ I see. No wonder, with your skills, you should have graduated long ago."
"You flatter me."
She greeted the passing aunties and uncles one by one.
This surprised Cui Ji, who was behind her.
Arriving at their usual open space, Fu Hua spoke.
"Today is officially your first day of martial arts training. I will teach you to the best of my ability."
"Understood."
"Good, then let's start with the basics."
And so, Fu Hua began to teach Cui Ji the martial arts she was learning.
Although the other party claimed she wasn't good at fighting, that was only compared to people from the Silver Army.
Compared to ordinary people, Cui Ji's basic qualities were not bad.
Because of this, the process of building a foundation was completed in about a week.
After that, Fu Hua began teaching the fist techniques she commonly used.
Cui Ji was right; her intelligence was high, and her comprehension naturally wouldn't be bad.
After practicing with Fu Hua for about a week, she could perform a set of fist techniques with about seventy to eighty percent accuracy.
After that, it would just be a matter of honing it through time; there was no rush.
Two more months passed.
After refinement, Cui Ji's martial arts foundation was already very solid.
Park open space.
Fu Hua and Cui Ji faced each other.
Many aunties and uncles watched intently from the side. In a corner, there was a girl with twin blue ponytails.
That's right, Qing Yi was also watching.
When she had some free time, she would come to this park to drink tea and play chess.
She naturally knew about Cui Ji.
A gentle breeze blew as Cui Ji struck a stance and quickly approached Fu Hua.
She struck out with a palm towards Fu Hua's abdomen.
Seeing this, Fu Hua steadily retreated and slowly pushed her hands to parry.
The two began to grapple.
Facing her disciple's fierce attacks, Fu Hua appeared very relaxed, able to counter the opponent with just one hand.
At this moment, the Cui Ji who was the worst fighter in the Silver Army no longer existed.
Standing before us is Cui Ji, a disciple of the Taixu Sect!
Seizing a slight opening in Fu Hua's slow reaction, Cui Ji changed her palm strike to a punch and charged towards Fu Hua's face.
Reaching out, she prepared to block.
Cui Ji's original jab changed into an elbow strike, and her body shifted its center of gravity.
Seeing this, Fu Hua couldn't help but shake her head and subtly hooked with her foot.
Cui Ji lost her balance and stumbled towards the ground.
Fortunately, her reaction was quick, and she braced herself with both hands.
Twisting her body, she launched a double spinning kick at Fu Hua.
After forcing the opponent back, Cui Ji flipped up and charged again.
Seeing this, Fu Hua nodded with satisfaction and praised.
"Not bad... but sometimes, when you actively attack, while suppressing the enemy.
You also need to be careful not to create opportunities for them."
Quickly dodging Cui Ji's charging punch, Fu Hua thrust a palm towards her face.
Seeing that she couldn't dodge, Cui Ji closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to come.
However, a long time passed, and nothing happened.
She slowly opened her eyes.
She saw Fu Hua's fingertip stopped right in front of her eyes.
"Alright, the battle is over."
As the words fell, applause immediately erupted from the crowd.
"Cui Ji has really improved so much. It's only been a few months..."
"That's right. I've watched this child grow up bit by bit."
"Qing Yi, why don't you go spar with Hua?"
Hearing this, Qing Yi waved her hand and said dejectedly.
"No, no. Master Fu Hua is incredibly skilled. My old bones can't handle it."
"Officer Qing Yi, you're too modest. Your training focuses on different things than mine. We're focused on strengthening the body, while you deal with criminals."
Fu Hua walked over and said calmly.
Hearing this, Qing Yi gave her a speechless look.
"Senior! I finally found you! We need to go, there's a mission!"
"Aiya~ I haven't even finished my hot tea yet."
"Senior! Hurry up, it's an emergency! It's a Honkai disaster."
"Alright, alright. Let's go then."
Qing Yi was dragged away by Zhu Yuan like a salted fish.
Shaking her head, Fu Hua took a sip of her tea and sighed.
"It's better here, so peaceful~"
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone buzzed with continuous message notifications from Shepherd.
Shepherd: Miss Chi Yuan, quick! There's an urgent mission.
Shepherd: A wealthy merchant I've been cooperating with is trapped in a sudden Honkai.
Shepherd: Please come quickly, the reward is three million!
Shepherd: Miss Chi Yuan!!!
"Tsk..."
Frowning as she read the messages, Fu Hua put down her teacup.
"Cui Ji, we have a mission. Let's go."
"Okay, Master!"
