Guiding Classmates

There were forty-five students in the class.

Aside from Qin Fen, Zhou Wu went through them one by one, correcting their horse-stance postures.

Before long, the class was over.

The next two periods were free activity classes.

One by one, the students practiced the horse-stance posture from Galloping Horse Strength.

After the teacher's guidance, some students had greatly improved their horse stances. They were now up to standard; with more practice, they would become proficient and break through from Rudimentary Understanding to the realm of First Glimpse of the Path.

However, there were still some students with poorer comprehension who had failed to grasp the key points.

"Qin Fen, the teacher said your horse stance is the most standard. I can never get mine right. Could you give me some pointers?"

A student walked over to Qin Fen's seat, scratched his head, and asked softly, somewhat embarrassed.

"No problem. Show me your horse stance."

Qin Fen did not refuse. Classmates should help one another.

The student immediately assumed the stance of Galloping Horse Strength. Qin Fen's gaze traveled from top to bottom and left to right as he circled the student once, and sure enough, he found several parts that were not standard.

"Raise your hands a little higher."

"Lean your body forward by five degrees."

"Move your legs five centimeters farther apart."

"Can you feel the difference?"

After correcting several flaws in the student's posture, Qin Fen asked.

"Yes, it feels different. It's not as tiring as before. Thank you."

The student immediately thanked him.

"Remember the parts you got wrong. When you get home, adjust them slowly in front of a mirror. Practice more, and you'll be fine."

Qin Fen nodded.

"I understand. Thank you for the guidance."

The student thanked him again, then returned to his seat.

Righteous Qi Value +1

A streak of white light suddenly floated past Qin Fen's eyes.

"Righteous Qi Value... I really did gain Righteous Qi Value."

Seeing that the Panel had gained 1 point of Righteous Qi Value, delight flashed in Qin Fen's eyes.

Qin Fen: Ordinary Person

Martial Art: Galloping Horse Strength / First Glimpse of the Path (2/30)

Righteous Qi Value: 1

Judging from the data displayed on the Panel, as long as he obtained 29 more points of Righteous Qi Value, he could raise Galloping Horse Strength from First Glimpse of the Path to the realm of Entering the Hall and Reaching the Inner Chamber. At that point, he would be able to cultivate force and become a Quasi-Martial Artist.

"Qin Fen, there are some problems with my horse stance too. Could you give me some pointers?"

"And me, me too. My horse stance doesn't seem quite right either. The teacher just corrected me, but maybe I'm too stupid—I still can't remember several parts."

"..."

After seeing Qin Fen guide that student, seven or eight students immediately came over to his seat to ask for guidance.

"No problem. Everyone line up. We'll go one at a time."

Seeing so many classmates asking for his guidance, joy immediately appeared in Qin Fen's eyes.

Anyone else would surely have looked impatient. Guiding others would waste their own training time and affect their cultivation progress, but when Qin Fen guided his classmates, he could obtain Righteous Qi Value.

With Righteous Qi Value, he could directly increase the proficiency of his martial arts.

That was far faster than training by himself.

Even if he trained diligently for an entire day, he might not increase his proficiency by a single point. But guiding these eight classmates would give him enough Righteous Qi Value to raise Galloping Horse Strength's proficiency by eight points.

Guiding one student took at most five or six minutes.

More than forty minutes later, Qin Fen got his wish and obtained 8 points of Righteous Qi Value.

"Add all the Righteous Qi Value to Galloping Horse Strength."

With a thought from Qin Fen, the proficiency of Galloping Horse Strength rose.

Martial Art: Galloping Horse Strength / First Glimpse of the Path (11/30)

A warm current resembling force appeared within Qin Fen's body and flowed through his meridians.

Qin Fen's body trembled slightly. His blood and qi surged, his muscles became much firmer, his tendons and bones several degrees tougher, and his strength increased.

Before cultivating Galloping Horse Strength, Qin Fen's strength had been around six hundred jin. But now, it had already reached over eight hundred jin. Once Galloping Horse Strength reached the realm of Entering the Hall and Reaching the Inner Chamber, his strength would rise beyond a thousand jin.

Qin Fen looked at the other students in the classroom. After the teacher's guidance, most of their horse stances did not have any major problems. Otherwise, if all forty-four students had asked him for guidance, the Righteous Qi Value he gained would have been enough to raise Galloping Horse Strength to the realm of Entering the Hall and Reaching the Inner Chamber.

As long as he did a few more good deeds on the way to school and after school every day, obtaining Righteous Qi Value would not be difficult. Even if he received only one point at a time, he would gather enough Righteous Qi Value to raise Galloping Horse Strength within a few days.

As the dismissal bell rang, all the students packed up their bags and left the classroom.

The school bus had already been repaired, but Qin Fen did not choose to take it. Instead, he ran home.

Chen Bo looked utterly baffled and asked, "Qin Fen, why not take the free school bus? Why insist on running home?"

Qin Fen replied, "To exercise. By the way, how's your Galloping Horse Strength practice going?"

Chen Bo shook his head. "So-so. When I practiced in class today, the teacher pointed out several mistakes. I could make the posture standard under the teacher's guidance, but when I practiced by myself, it always felt a little off—not quite standard."

Qin Fen smiled. "Call me big brother, and I'll teach you after we get back. The teacher said in class today that my Galloping Horse Strength horse stance was the most standard. I've already reached the realm of First Glimpse of the Path, and I even guided several classmates."

Chen Bo could not help but eye him suspiciously. "Really? You're not trying to take advantage of me, are you?"

"You don't believe me? I'll show you my horse stance."

As he spoke, Qin Fen immediately assumed the stance of Galloping Horse Strength while walking.

In the air, the faint sound of galloping steeds immediately rang out.

"That's the Galloping Steeds Sound?" Hearing the faint sound in the air, Chen Bo was instantly shocked. "Qin Fen, you really weren't lying. In just one day, you cultivated Galloping Horse Strength to the realm of First Glimpse of the Path. Could it be that you're a once-in-ten-thousand martial arts prodigy, destined to safeguard world peace?"

Qin Fen said, "Believe me now? Hurry up and call me big brother."

"Big brother, you're my real big brother. Whether I can cultivate force within a month depends on you." Chen Bo immediately said, "Come eat at my house tonight. I'll have my parents make a whole table of delicious dishes for you."

"I'll call my parents first and see whether they're coming back tonight."

Qin Fen took out his phone and called his father, Qin Guofeng.

"Qin Fen, your mother and I are working overtime today. Just make dinner for yourself."

As soon as the call connected, Qin Guofeng's somewhat weary voice came from the other end, accompanied by the noise of machinery.

"Got it, Dad, Mom. Don't work yourselves too hard."

Qin Fen hung up.

The two jogged all the way back.

Along the way, Qin Fen did several more good deeds and obtained 3 points of Righteous Qi Value.

He received a signing invitation message. While there are still few people around, hurry and invest—you can get several hundred coins.
