Teaching at Jiangnan! A Fist Without Intent Is Like Water Without a Source!

After several nights of Xiao Yu, the Jicheng in June was still chilly despite the warming trend.

A gentle breeze blows, and as the first rays of dawn shine on the willows by the river, more and more pedestrians appear on the road.

"I really don't know how many points I can get in this College Entrance Examination. My martial arts grades are average, so I'm just hoping my academic scores can pull me up and give me a shot at getting into Martial Dao University."

"Of course we can. Our generation is really lucky. We don't have to face the dangers of the first batch of martial artists entering the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, and we can also cultivate the Martial Arts Grand Summary ' Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist ' newly created by Martial God Jiang."

"I heard from my cousin at the Martial Dao University that he has transferred to this Martial Arts Grand Summary and is now progressing at more than twice the speed of before! He is expected to reach the Third Realm of Martial Dao by graduation."

"Really? A few years ago, the Third Realm of Martial Dao was still the Grandmaster realm. There was even a special Grandmaster Rankings list. You could say that every Grandmaster was a world-renowned figure. But now, the outstanding graduates of the Academy can all reach the Third Realm of Martial Dao."

"Times are changing too fast. Before the revival of the Origin Qi, martial artists at the First Realm of Martial Dao were probably special forces instructors or bodyguards in the Imperial Court. But now, those at the First Realm of Martial Dao are just barely touching the threshold of entering Academy."

"Most importantly, our Xia Kingdom has produced Peerless Genius like Martial God Jiang. He guards the nation's gates and slays Deity! I watched the battle in the Donghai repeatedly! Every time I watched it, my scalp tingled, my whole body trembled, my blood surged, and my veins bulged!"

"True Self didn't have any obsession with martial arts, after all, I'm not good at enduring hardship. I thought that practicing martial arts and stances was not as good as switching to academic subjects and writing. But after watching Martial God Jiang's fight, I realized that martial arts is the romance of men."

"Of course! Look around, nowadays, movies, TV shows, games, and music are almost all related to martial arts. Even celebrities who debut are all martial artists. The path of learning martial arts is absolutely the right one."

"Not to mention, Martial God Jiang also created the ' Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist,' the Martial Arts Grand Summary difficulty of which is said to be extremely low. Now our martial arts training no longer requires talent to advance, unlike the previous Ming Jin Hidden Force techniques!"

Over the years, Jicheng has built one park after another for junior and senior high school students to practice martial arts.

Students who have just finished the College Entrance Examination are at their most relaxed time, and many of them gather in the park to stand and daydream.

Upon returning to the Xia Kingdom, Jiang Shu immediately passed on the mature "Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist" to Wang Yan, which then spread through both the military and Martial Dao University.

It changed the fate of countless students.

As long as you hold the heart that Everyone is Like a Dragon, you can continuously improve yourself. Even an ordinary student has the potential to reach the Sixth Realm of Martial Dao!

The number of martial artists at the Martial Dao University is increasing.

Some students with goals and ideas would even go to the coastal army and temporarily join them, working with the soldiers to hunt down one Variant Ferocious Beast after another.

"A cup of strong tea, a pack of cigarettes, and a fishing rod for a whole day. Xia Kingdom is really getting better and better. When your dad was in school, he couldn't even get enough to eat; now, not only do we have to eat our fill, we have to eat well! You can even buy Exotic Beast Meat in the market."

"Just a few days ago I heard that another little genius has emerged in our Jicheng. He became a martial artist at the age of sixteen."

A corner of the park.

Jiang Yongyi, with a fishing rod dangling from his arm, listened to the conversation of the students in the distance and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Even now, he still finds it hard to believe that almost all the changes in the Xia Kingdom are brought about by his own son.

His own son was not only the creator of this era of all martial artists, but also the leader of all martial artists.

"It's getting better and better. Martial arts training is inherently easier for younger people to develop their muscles and bones."

Jiang Shu responded with a smile. After returning to Jicheng, he temporarily put aside his cultivation to go shopping with his mother and go fishing with his father.

Relaxation is also a form of spiritual practice.

The martial artists of the Xia Kingdom have now reached a stable stage of improvement.

Before the Star Gate is fully opened, the invading Cosmos powerhouse consciousnesses can basically only be at the Primal Chaos Breathing First Order.

With him in charge, the Xia Kingdom enjoyed peace and prosperity, with tranquility and calm seas.

The only danger might lie in the coastal areas. However, thanks to the cooperation he reached with the God of All Beasts, the Variant Ferocious Beast will not actually invade the land too often.

Martial artists go there to hone themselves, improve themselves, and prepare for the great future.

"Xiao Shu, see that? This is your dad's fishing skill! Let's see who dares to say I'm a noob now!"

Jiang Yongyi chuckled as he caught a large carp. Since his son wasn't cultivating, he naturally wouldn't bring up the topic of the West Deity.

He has a typical petty-bourgeois mentality; as long as his country and family are doing well, that's enough for him.

As long as these Deity don't come to the Xia Kingdom, what does it matter to them how chaotic the West?

"It's like a little cow doing a handstand—it's incredibly awesome."

Jiang Shu gave a thumbs up and flattered, "Dad, I talked with Principal Luo of the Jiangnan Academy yesterday and said that I will give a final lecture at the Academy tomorrow."

"We can also visit Xiao Yan while we're at it, shall we go together?"

Despite the ongoing promotion of "Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist," its creator has never spoken about the Martial Arts Grand Summary on any social media platform.

This time I went to the Jiangnan Academy.

One is to convey the spirit I want to express to students through lectures at the Academy.

Secondly, it would also be a chance to meet the teachers and classmates at the Academy.

Of course, unlike his previous speeches, this time he wanted to completely conceal the news. Even some martial arts teachers at the Jiangnan Academy were unaware that he would be giving a lecture.

The next day.

On the large playground of the Jiangnan Academy, all the students gathered—a rare sight indeed.

"This is quite a big event. Did the principal invite Fifth Realm of Martial Dao to give us a lecture? In the past, that would have been Martial Saint level existence."

"You know what, it's actually quite possible. After all, the professors at our Jiangnan Academy are all at the Martial Dao Fourth Realm. Ordinary fourth-level martial artists don't need the principal and teachers to emphasize things and require everyone to be present during their lectures."

"Do you think there's a possibility... that it's Martial God Jiang..."

"No!"

"Martial God Jiang is definitely in the midst of cultivation right now. He didn't even show up to release ' Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist,' so how could he suddenly come to our Jiangnan Academy to give a lecture? I know that Martial God Jiang is a true genius. Even in the initial stages of martial arts training, our Jiangnan Academy didn't offer him much help."

"Absolutely! Becoming a grandmaster at eighteen! Even now, let alone back then, it's still incredibly impressive. When we graduate, those who can advance to the Third Realm of Martial Dao are all outstanding graduates, and we have the potential to teach at the Jiangnan Academy."

"I think Martial God Jiang is the reincarnation of Deity. The battle in the Donghai was truly earth-shattering and terrifying. Even through the screen, I could feel the invincibility of those Deity, but Martial God Jiang only said eight words: 'We martial artists have nothing to fear from death.'"

"This frightened the remaining five great Deity so much that they all fled. They were also afraid that Martial God Jiang would leave them all behind."

"I still remember the complicated feelings I had when I entered the air-raid shelter. I was afraid that Martial God Jiang would be defeated in this battle. After all, each of these Deity seemed to be stronger than Martial God Jiang. Even Wang Tianren said that Martial God Jiang should only be at the Spirit Breathing Realm, but those Deity were comparable to the Primal Chaos Breathing."

"But I must say, Martial God Jiang is Martial God Jiang. In Wang Tianren, the Spirit Breathing Realm, which had been stagnant for at least several decades, was broken through by Martial God Jiang in just one or two years. Not only did he fight against Deity of the same realm, but he also fought against five at once and guarded the country's gate. It's a pity that Martial God Jiang is now nowhere to be found, otherwise I really want to meet him."

"Hey, I remember our teacher Shou was in the same grade and class as Martial God Jiang, right? Maybe they even have each other's contact information! Why don't we go ask him!"

A group of curious students started exchanging ideas and couldn't help but turn their attention to Shou Junming at the front of the line.

At this time, Shou Junming had already Third Realm of Martial Dao. Two years ago, he successfully became a martial arts teacher at the Jiangnan Academy.

"Teacher Shou, was Martial God Jiang your classmate before? I wonder what Martial God Jiang was like back then?"

The top student in the class was the first to ask a question. Since the martial arts master who was giving the speech hadn't arrived yet, they chatted casually, which also helped to strengthen the bond between teachers and students.

"You might not believe it, but Martial God Jiang and I used to be true best friends! When school started, I sat next to him. Back then, he was obsessed with martial arts, and I was the one who kept him informed about everything that was happening at the Academy."

Speaking of Jiang Shu, Shou Junming patted his chest and said, "Back then, Martial God Jiang even patted your teacher on the shoulder and said that your teacher looked just like Patrick Star. Well, although your teacher still doesn't know what kind of Variant Ferocious Beast Patrick Star is, think about it, this was said by Martial God Jiang. How many people can get a nickname personally given by Martial God Jiang?"

"So, don't be fooled by your teachers. Among the teachers at the Jiangnan Academy, they may not seem very strong, but they have a very high status. Do you even know what it means to be a close friend of Martial God?"

Shou Junming was boasting and was about to say something more when...

A familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears. "Patrick Star is a Variant Ferocious Beast in the ocean. It has little offensive power and is rather stupid. It looks like this."

As he spoke, a wisp of spiritual energy sketched Patrick Star's image on his chest. Looking at Shou Junming, who had a blank expression, Jiang Shu stepped forward and hugged him, saying, "Long time no see."

Amidst the stunned gazes of the crowd, Jiang Shu slowly stepped onto the stage. "I won't do a self-introduction."

Those who could enter the Academy were all martial artists, and their eyesight was much better than that of ordinary people. Among the students in the front row, some of them recognized Jiang Shu immediately.

Exclamations erupted.

"The main reason I came to the Jiangnan Academy is to talk about the ' Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist ' that I recently created. Although the Martial Arts Grand Summary have just been created, the prototype of its concept comes from my early days of learning martial arts."

"At that time, I was only at the Hidden Force realm and was studying at the Jiangnan Academy. My teacher was Professor Xie Feichen. He guided me in martial arts time and time again and instilled in me the idea of family and country."

"Back then, the Xia Kingdom was not like it is now. The strength of its martial artists was generally weak. Every martial artist did not know when the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm would erupt, and they were afraid that the Variant Ferocious Beast in it would invade the Xia Kingdom."

Jiang Shu's voice was very soft, but through the transmission of mental energy, it rang precisely in everyone's ears.

"Back then, my teacher Xie Feichen taught me that if you want to succeed in martial arts, you must first have a belief. A martial artist's belief is for himself, for others, for his family, and for his country."

"At that time, I practiced martial arts only for myself and my family, and I could not yet experience the level of practicing for the country. Later, at West Lake, I had a grandmaster battle with Grandmaster Shang Sigou. After the battle, Grandmaster Shang Sigou also told me the secret of Dan Jin, the unity of essence, qi and spirit."

"I have now created Martial Arts Grand Summary, dividing martial arts into six major realms. As long as you cultivate, you will hardly encounter any major bottlenecks. But back then, there was a chasm between Transforming Force and Dan Jin. Countless grandmasters were stuck at this level."

"And it was only after exchanging ideas with Grandmaster Shang Sigou that I realized the improvement in my State of Mind and the complete development of my sense of national responsibility. After that, as everyone knows, the Battle of Fusang took place, where I killed the Sword God with my fist."

Jiang Shu's deeds were widely circulated after he became famous. In particular, his battle in Fusang after achieving the status of Celestial Person was extensively documented online.

Therefore, when he mentioned it, all the students below shone with starlight in their eyes.

What you see online is ultimately just praise from outsiders.

Nothing compares to what Martial God Jiang said himself!

"Some people may wonder, Martial God Jiang, who proves his Dao through martial arts, shouldn't he talk about how to practice martial arts? Why is he suddenly talking about family and country?"

"In my current understanding, the nation and martial arts are intertwined. The nation comes first, then the martial arts. In the Donghai, I guard the nation's gate, face the six great Deity, and proclaim that we martial artists have no fear of death. Am I really not afraid of death?"

"No, it is the essence of my martial arts that stands here. If I were to retreat, and the Xia Kingdom were to fall into a great catastrophe, what would be the point of my martial arts practice?"

"From the Jiangnan Academy to West Lake, to Fusang, to the battle in the Donghai, the ambition in my heart has become more and more obvious and more and more flamboyant. Only then did I completely perfect the Martial Arts Grand Summary of our Xia Kingdom, the ' Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist '."

"The ' Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist ' upholds the belief that Everyone is Like a Dragon, without class distinctions! Everyone is Like a Dragon, then the dragons will be leaderless, and the world will be blessed!"

"The idea of Everyone is Like a Dragon is not only about oneself, but also about one's family and country. Because our family and country are made up of us, and if we Everyone is Like a Dragon, then the Xia Kingdom will be the greatest dragon in the entire Xuanxing!"

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Jiang Shu began to slowly practice the "Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist," each move exuding a simple yet grand aura.

"To learn my ' Everyone is Like a Dragon Fist,' one must understand my intentions."

"A fist without intention is like water without a source."

"With focused mind, martial arts reach divine heights!"
