Chapter 014 – Close Quarters Combat Expert (2/2)
“Hey hey, wait till you grow oh, oh your woman will definitely love this title!” Old Fart Wei looked vulgar.
“Will Qian Hui like it too?” Tang Tian’s eyes glowed.
“Oh, of course!” Old Fart Wei almost choked on his saliva, coughing he said: “However, your distance to being a close quarters combat expert is still very far. To become a qualified close quarters combat expert, other than preparing for the unique characteristics, you also need to bring your opponent close quick enough. If your light body techniques are not stable, you’re dead.”
“That’s right!” Tang Tian banged the ground with one slap: “It is a must to cultivate light body techniques!”
“You need to prepare all sorts of unarmed technical abilities. Remember, you are a close quarters combat expert, not a fist martial master. All the fist, palm, finger and joint techniques must be practiced. You need to be sure that when you pull your opponent close enough, you have sufficient methods to kill the opponent swiftly.”
“Makes sense! I want to learn everything!”
“You have to improve your reaction speed, give yourself even less time to react, be even more precise when you attack.”
“Absolutely correct! It is a must to improve!”
Old Fart Wei continued: “If you are able to do all this, then you are qualified, so much that you will be an outstanding close quarters combat expert.”
Ah Mo Li raised both of his hands: “I want to be a close quarters combat expert too!”
Old Fart Wei ignored him.
Tang Tian did not make a sound, but looked at Old Fart Wei with a weird look on his face.
Old Fart Wei felt… felt awkward being stared at by Tang Tian, touched his face: “Is there something on my face?”
“Qualified? Outstanding? I want to be like a godlike close quarters combat expert!” Tang Tian said like it was a matter of course, but shortly changed to being unhappy. “You actually looked down on me! Hmph Hmph! Too little trust in me!”
Old Fart Wei replied with a laugh: “I see ambition, but, to even be qualified as a close quarters combat expert, you have to endure quite a bit of suffering.”
“I am not scared of suffering.” Tang Tian shook his head and spoke seriously.
“Oh.” the shine in Old Fart Wei’s eyes faded: “Keke, let’s get back to mental cultivation arts. Since you have chosen to be a close quarters combat expert, I have an awesome mental cultivation art Spirit Card, but this mental cultivation art is not easy to cultivate.”
“Is it that awesome?” Tang Tian asked curiously.
“Very!” Old Fart Wei nodded.
“Then it shall be it!” Tang Tian’s eyes brightened up.
“It’s very hard to learn.” Old Fart Wei reminded.
“Don’t belittle me!” Tang Tian widened his eyes.
“Keke, such ambition you have, young rascal!” Old Fart Wei chuckled and took out a card: “I hope you don’t humiliate this Spirit Card.”
Tang Tian glanced at the Spirit Card and stood in shock: “Silver Grade Spirit Card?”
The Silver Grade Spirit Card card shone brightly. On top of the card was a white shadow seated down. The card felt cold and hard in his hands. Tang Tian never thought that Old Fart Wei would pass him a Silver Grade Spirit Card.
The price of a Silver Grade Spirit Card of a rank three mental cultivation art was something he could never imagine.
“Wow, old fart, didn’t you mention you only had one Silver Grade Spirit Card?” Ah Mo Li was surprised as though he had discovered a new road: “You are definitely cunning! However, since you have already given it to Tang Tian, I shall not haggle with you. Fundamental Tang, it looks awesome, better start cultivating soon!”
Yet, beyond Old Fart Wei and Ah Mo Li’s expectation, Tang Tian shook his head and pushed the Spirit Card back to Old Fart Wei: “I don’t want it.”
“You don’t want it?” Old Fart Wei was confused: “Why?”
“It’s too expensive.” Tang Tian looked up and stated: “This is too expensive. I can’t accept it.”
Surprised, Old Fart Wei looked at Tang Tian and laughed: “I didn’t give this Silver Grade Spirit Card to you for free. I have something to ask of you. If you can’t be a close quarters combat expert, then I don’t have any hopes for my task. Oh, you dare not accept, unless you have no confidence in yourself?”
Tang Tian stared at old Fart Wei in anger: “Old Fart, who dares not accept it? Who doesn’t have confidence?”
Slap, Tang Tian snatched the Spirit Card from him and said seriously: “I know you are doing this for me, Old Fart. I will become a close quarters combat expert no matter what. I’ll give my all. What do you have to ask of me?”
Old Fart Wei chucked: “It’s useless to tell you now. Wait till you have become a close quarters combat expert, then I’ll tell you.”
“Good!” Tang Tian nodded and raised his palm.
“What’s this for?” Old Fart Wei was confused.
“We’ll clap our hands together to make a vow! Wow, old man, you’re sure old-fashioned!” Tang Tian disdainfully said.
“You ruined little child, don’t learn this from the adults. What do you know about clapping hands to make a vow?” Old Fart Wei countered back with the same look of disdain.
“Rubbish!” Tang Tian looked in anger: “You belittled me. I have clapped my hands with Qian Hui to make a vow!”
Slap!
An old and a small hand clapped heavily.
“Great!” Tang Tian was satisfied.
“This ruined little child sure has many tricks up his sleeve.” Old Fart Wei muttered.
“I’m coming too! I’m coming too!” Ah Mo Li squeezed in and extended his hands, but nobody bothered about him.
“Oh, let us now talk about this Spirit Card.” Old Fart Wei suddenly turned stern: “I have long gotten this card but I was past the third level already, so I’ve always kept it by my side. This Spirit Card is known as the [Crane-Style Qi Manual], and it is an Ancient Mental Cultivation Spirit Card.”
“An Ancient Spirit Card?”
Tang Tian and Ah Mo Li were excitedly moved.
