"What powerful fist energy! What kind of fist technique is this? I've never seen it before."

"Reporting to the Prajna Hall Head! This fist technique was created and given to me by a former Shaolin disciple. I didn't expect it to have such power!"

"Hmm? Who is this highly perceptive Shaolin disciple who created this fist technique?"

"It's Hong Xiguan, a Shaolin secular disciple. He became a secular disciple because he couldn't practice martial arts. He gave me a fist technique manual, and I unexpectedly cultivated it to this level!"

"I see! What a pity for a genius! You're also quite good. After joining the Subduing Tiger Hall, you'll definitely achieve great things!"

The Arhat Hall Head said proudly, "Did you even need to say that! My Arhat Hall disciples are no worse than those from your Prajna Hall!"

"Kid! Strive to live up to my expectations. If you get into the top five, I'll personally reward you with a cultivation technique!"

"Thank you for the Arhat Hall Head's reward! This disciple will definitely put in extra effort and won't let you down!"

"Good! Remember your words, and don't disappoint me!"

Dong Tianbao then said arrogantly, "Arhat Hall kid! You're not bad, you're actually worth me taking action to defeat you!"

"Heh! You say that like it's a sure thing. I hope you can do it, but don't disappoint me!"

The Golden Arhat also walked over at this time and patted Li Changfeng on the shoulder. "Junior Brother Li, don't be careless! This guy's strength is not to be underestimated. Take him seriously!"

"Okay! Senior Brother Jin! I understand!"

Li Changfeng thought to himself, Seriously? Does everyone need to remind me how strong he is? Is my power something you can even imagine? Oh well! You'll naturally find out when the time comes.

"Sixth Brother, you really gave me a scare just now! I'm not even sure I could beat that kid. I didn't expect your inner strength to be so profound, and you've even mastered the Shaolin Bronze Body Skill. You've been hiding it well, you rascal!"

"Boss! I only achieved this because of some lucky encounters during my previous training. I'm far behind your solid cultivation!"

"You say that! I wish I had your luck! Unfortunately, I don't, so I can only cultivate steadily. I really envy you, kid!"

Prajna Hall Area.

At this time, Chen Feng leisurely walked up to Yuan Mingzhi and sneered, "What's wrong? Weren't you very cocky? Didn't you say that I, the chief disciple of the Second Branch, was trash? How come you were so easily defeated? What a fraud!"

Yuan Mingzhi's face darkened as he said in a deep voice, "At least I fought him back and forth! You couldn't even last for a quarter of an hour, yet you have the nerve to talk about me?"

"Hmph! If I hadn't underestimated him, would he have defeated me so easily? With your strength, you probably couldn't even beat me, yet you talk about defeating that kid!"

"Hmph! Losing in less than a quarter of an hour is still a loss. There's nothing to say, it only proves that you're indeed trash!"

"Alright, alright, alright! Since you're so amazing! I'll wait until your injuries heal, and then I'll fight you one-on-one! You just wait!"

The Prajna Hall Head, hearing the noise over there, immediately looked gloomy. "What are you arguing about! You lost, and you still have the nerve to yap over there? And all of you, don't underestimate your opponents. If you get ambushed and lose, don't blame me for being ruthless and abusing you!"

The disciples of Prajna Hall instantly looked solemn. "Head, don't worry! We will definitely not be careless!"

"Hmph! Remember your words!"

"Tianbao! Don't underestimate this kid. He's hiding himself deeply. I estimate that this is not all his strength. Do you have confidence?"

"Reporting to the Head! I still have some confidence. In Arhat Hall, only the Golden Arhat and this kid are a bit tricky for me. I can still defeat them. As for the others, I don't even put them in my eyes. Don't worry!"

"Good! It's good that you have confidence!"

Li Changfeng said helplessly, "For a chief disciple of Arhat Hall to fight an ordinary disciple of Prajna Hall to such a result, it's really hard for him to accept!"

The Golden Arhat patted Li Changfeng on the shoulder and said, "Take it easy! There's nothing you can do about it. In recent years, after Prajna Hall selects the outstanding disciples, the rest are assigned to Arhat Hall. How can you expect our strength to be great?"

"However, only the disciples of the First Branch and Second Branch have higher quality. The other branches aren't much better!"

"I see! No wonder there's such a big difference between the disciples of Arhat Hall and Prajna Hall!"

"But with a master like Junior Brother Li, I feel a lot more at ease. We won't lose too badly!"

"Senior Brother Jin, with your talent, you shouldn't be staying in Arhat Hall, right? How could those idiots in Prajna Hall let you go to Arhat Hall?"

"Hehe! I was brought into Arhat Hall by the Arhat Hall Head when I was young, and I grew up in Arhat Hall. Of course, I belong to Arhat Hall. Even if you asked me to go to Prajna Hall, I wouldn't go."

"I see, I understand now!"

The power of martial arts relies on True Qi. The stronger the True Qi, the greater the increase in the power of martial arts. It's not to say that strength has no effect. When a person's strength reaches its peak, every punch and every stance is equivalent to a martial art. However, it's too rare to cultivate strength to this level. Only a very few exceptional individuals can do it.

The early stage of martial arts is focused on cultivating True Qi and opening up the Twelve Principal Meridians. The first step is to open up the first meridian and condense a True Qi seed. The more meridians that are opened up later, the larger and stronger the True Qi seed will be!

The first three meridians correspond to third-rate experts. Opening up the first three meridians means you are a peak third-rate expert. Generally speaking, they have twenty years of True Qi inner strength. Twenty years of True Qi inner strength is just used to define a peak third-rate expert. Some experts with powerful cultivation techniques naturally have even stronger True Qi inner strength, and their inner strength value is much higher than that of ordinary peak third-rate experts.

The middle three meridians correspond to second-rate experts. Opening up the middle three meridians means you are a peak second-rate expert. Their inner strength is generally fifty years, and their strength is calculated based on the power of their cultivation techniques, as described above.

The last three meridians correspond to first-rate experts. Opening up the last three meridians means you are a peak first-rate expert. Their inner strength is generally 100 years.

The final three meridians correspond to top-tier experts. Opening up the final three meridians means you are a peak top-tier expert. Their inner strength is generally 150 years. Such people are enough to establish their own sects and become the head of a sect, a grandmaster-level figure, with extremely powerful strength, deeply admired by the martial world, and with a prestigious reputation!
