Starting with Xingyi Quan, it swept across the chaotic world.

Chapter 64 The Path to Transformation

"The results are out! The results are out!"

"Senior Brother Lu ranked twentieth in the second-tier class of high school!"

"Congratulations, Senior Brother Lu! Congratulations!"

On the same day, the news of the results was also learned by the disciples of Baihe Martial Arts School, who rushed to the school to report it.

The news caused an immediate sensation.

Although many people already knew that Lu Li had an 80% chance of passing the martial arts exam, when the results were actually announced, many people's hearts skipped a beat.

"I knew long ago that Senior Brother Lu was no ordinary person. He studies from dawn till dusk, so it's no wonder he passed the martial arts exam with flying colors!"

Many disciples were moved.

Wu Xiucai, they also wanted to pass the imperial examination.

Many people had long harbored the idea of ​​currying favor with Lu Li, but unfortunately, he was truly a martial arts fanatic who had no interest in many things except martial arts, which caused many of them distress.

"Junior Brother Lu, congratulations!"

After receiving the news, Duan Kang walked to Lu Li's side and sincerely congratulated him.

"Thank you, senior brother. I share your joy." Lu Li returned the greeting with a fist and palm salute.

Many disciples felt a mix of emotions upon seeing how close Senior Brother Duan Kang and Lu Li were.

They also know that only friendships formed in humble circumstances can last, and in the current situation, trying to force a relationship would likely only lead to disappointment.

Some of the older disciples were filled with regret, wondering why they hadn't had the foresight to befriend Lu Li earlier.

Not far away, Liang Jing, wrapped in gauze, had a similarly complicated expression.

His injuries were much less severe than Zhang Wu's, so he has already returned to the martial arts school today to do some simple training.

Unexpectedly, upon returning, he received news that Lu Li had ranked 20th in the second class of martial arts at high school.

He genuinely believed that this year was the most promising year.

That's what I thought, at least until the third round of the ring.

However, his rival, Qiu Ming, ruthlessly shattered his dream of becoming a martial arts student.

Liang Jing recalled that before setting off, Master Qin had been most hoping for Zhang Wu and Duan Kang, but both of them were eliminated in disappointment.

On the contrary, Lu Li emerged as a dark horse and won the championship in one fell swoop.

Xu Fang, standing beside Liang Jing, felt a mix of emotions.

Born into a prominent family, although she possessed the hidden strength skill, she was not the only one in the family and could not escape being arranged into a marriage. Therefore, for a long time, she spent her time in the martial arts school selecting potential disciples to invest in, consolidating her position in the family, and thinking that perhaps she could choose a suitable husband from among these potential disciples.

There were several people in the courtyard with average potential who hadn't caught her attention, and she always believed that she had excellent judgment and wouldn't let the family "lose money on investments."

And what happened? The person she should have invested in most was the one she ignored.

If I had been more proactive back then... or at least not treated them coldly, would the outcome have been different?

Xu Fang fell silent.

She regretted it. She knew she should have done something sooner, but now it was too late.

……

"Junior Brother Lu, are your injuries any better?"

After exchanging pleasantries, Duan Kang suddenly asked a question.

He was asking about the Banlan Chui that had sent Lu Li staggering back several steps on the stage that day.

"Don't worry, senior brother, I'm fine now."

Lu Li explained with a smile.

Qian Yuan's punch that day was indeed powerful and heavy, but fortunately, he had already mastered the Six Harmonies Stance and Xingyi Quan to a high level, plus the minor level of the Thunderclap Kick. With these three kinds of blood energy combined, although he was injured, it was not serious.

but……

If only there were a technique specifically for honing the physical body to defend against attacks from others.

A thought flashed through Lu Li's mind.

On the day of the battle, Qian Yuan's block and punch hit his right chest, but he was not greatly affected.

If it were a battle against a mortal enemy, and the blow landed on one's left chest... one would likely be seriously injured, if not killed.

"It's good that you're alright, sigh..." Duan Kang said, then suddenly sighed, "It's just that Junior Brother Zhang, what a pity."

Upon hearing this, Lu Li's eyes flashed, and he was overjoyed.

"What do you mean by that, Senior Brother?" Lu Li asked anxiously.

Duan Kang shook his head again:

"Junior Brother Zhang was sent to Doctor Jiang. Doctor Jiang said that even with all sorts of methods, there is only a 30% chance of recovery."

Although he didn't particularly like his impolite junior brother Zhang, there was no conflict between them. Now that the other party had been crippled by outsiders, he still had to consider their camaraderie.

There's still 30% left?

So tall!

"Damn it!" Lu Li muttered.

"That's right! That Shi Qingyang is truly despicable!" Duan Kang couldn't help but speak up when he saw Lu Li's emotions.

After a moment, Duan Kang continued:

"By the way, junior brother, Master wants you to come over."

I suppose it was encouragement after Wu Ke High School.

Lu Li didn't think much of it. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he walked towards the inner courtyard.

……

"Disciple Lu Li greets Master."

Lu Li pushed open the door and entered, bowing respectfully.

These days, Qin Yan doesn't even have the appetite to eat persimmon cakes anymore.

Upon seeing Lu Li enter, the sorrowful expression on Qin Yan's face vanished, replaced by a smile.

"Xiao Li is here. I should congratulate you."

Aside from his innate talent, Qin Yan had no complaints about Lu Li, his disciple.

Born into humble circumstances, he ignored gossip and rumors, focused on hard work, and remained calm and low-key.

In contrast, Zhang Wu, once he gained power, became arrogant and acted recklessly, which ultimately led to this tragedy.

Qin Yan pulled himself together and said again:

"Actually, there are two things I need to tell you when I called you here today."

"First, how should one proceed on the path of transforming one's internal energy?"

Qin Yan glanced at Lu Li as he spoke, "Want to see the strength of a Transformation Realm expert?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Li hesitated slightly, but still nodded.

Then, he saw Qin Yan raise his hand and point it at him.

In an instant, alarm bells rang in Lu Li's mind.

Looking at Qin Yan's hand, which looked somewhat thin and withered from the passage of time, Lu Li's Thunder Leg technique started involuntarily.

Seeing Lu Li's alarmed expression, Qin Yan grinned.

He was used to Lu Li's taciturn and unsmiling demeanor, but seeing Lu Li's fearful, worried, and wary appearance now was quite amusing.

At least, the recent distress in his heart has indeed been relieved quite a bit.

"Just teasing you..."

After Qin Yan finished speaking, he turned around and launched a mid-air attack in the other direction.

There was no sound of the blow cutting through the air; to outsiders, it was merely an old man gently turning his wrist.

However, Lu Li sensed a chill that penetrated to the bone.

Qin Yan struck a rockery placed inside the room, which remained unmoved.

But in the next instant, the artificial hill suddenly collapsed and shattered into several pieces.

If it were a living person, it would probably explode...

Lu Li's hair stood on end. Just as he was about to offer his compliments, he suddenly saw that the stone dust and debris that shot out when the artificial mountain shattered all stopped within an inch of Qin Yan's body.

It was as if some invisible barrier was blocking it.

"This is the essence of transforming strength, where 'not even a feather can be added, nor a fly can land.'"

Qin Yan seemed to have regained the air of a master of internal energy transformation, and spoke with considerable arrogance.

"When the two forces of light and dark are combined into one, like water and milk blending together, they become a seamless whole. When they are controlled by the mind, they are transformed into power."

"Although you are of inferior talent, hard work pays off, and you may still have a chance."

Qin Yan looked at Lu Li, his arrogance turning into seriousness and complexity.

Throughout history, very few people with inferior aptitude have achieved great things, and he had hardly ever seen any. But now, Lu Li has repeatedly shattered his stereotypes, and he always felt that perhaps Lu Li could really go even further.

"As for the second matter, it is my support for you."
