“You have never heard of Lei Qianjue and Chen Beixuan? Which martial arts family are you from?” The old man asked suspiciously with furrowed brows.
Martial arts family? Sect? Why did it sound like the stuff on TV shows? We live in a modern age now, did these things of the past still exist?
The boys and girls form Chu Zhou City looked at each other in confusion. However, Zhang Yumeng was quick enough to improvise a reply:
“Yes, yes. My master is Guo Wei from the Wei Shen martial arts school in Chu Zhou City.”
The Wei Shen martial arts school was the most famous martial arts school in Chu Zhou City.
“Guo Wei… sounds familiar. Ah- he is from the Xin Yi Sect isn’t he?” The old man mulled over the name for a while and finally nodded his head. There were not a lot of Internal Force users in China and therefore since Guo Wei was able to obtain the Internal Force, he was quite popular among his sect members.
“Well, so we are related, after all. My sect is very close to the Xing Yi Sect.” A smile broke over the old man’s face. “That being said, you guys look too wimpy to have even mastered the most basic forms of the Xing Yi Fist, much less Internal Force.”
“Hehe…” The teenagers from Chu Zhou City smiled back embarra.s.sed.
Among them, only two people had practiced a few years of Taekwondo and Karate in the school’s interest groups. None of them were exposed to real martial arts training. Therefore, they barely knew what Xing Yi Fist was about, much less Internal Force.
“Grandpa, what is Internal Force?” Zhang Yumeng asked curiously.
She has a cute face and kittenish voice, a favorite among old people.
“You don’t even know what Internal Force is? Guo Wei didn’t talk about it?” The old man’s suspicion grew again as he scanned the teenagers more scrutinizingly.
However, he knew that this section of the lake was sealed off and no ordinary people were able to get past the blockade. Plus, they knew Guo Wei and therefore he wagered that they had to be members of the Martial arts world one way or another. In the end, the old man heaved a sigh and shook his head.”Fine, fine, I will fill you guys in. Even if I don’t tell you about it now, your teacher will tell you sooner or later. It’s not a secret.”
“The so-called Internal Force was energy inside of a human’s body. One would need to cultivate this energy to make it useful. Once formed, it could enable a man to run as fast as a horse and lift a thousand tons of weight with ease. Usually, an Internal Force martial artist should be able to fight against over a dozen average people at the same time.”
“So… are you telling me that what they showed us on TV is real? ” Yang Chao exclaimed.
Xu Rongfei and Zhang Yumeng didn’t buy it, and even Li Yichen and Young Lord Han furrowed their brows in disbelief. However, Jiang Churan s.h.i.+vered a little as she recalled the memory of Chen Fan summoning a dragon in the clouds.
“Is that Internal Force or Dharma Spells? Could Chen Fan really be an Internal Force expert?”Jiang Churan was at a loss.
“Hehe, your teacher Guo Wei for example, he had reached initial success in his Internal Force cultivation. He could smash open a gate made out of iron with ease.” The old man said with a contemptuous voice.
Jiang Churan had registered the disdain in the old man’s voice, so she asked: “So I wager grandpa is much more powerful than our teacher?”
The old man cracked a smile and kept his silence, however, the brash little boy piped up: “Why of course! Guo Wei is nothing but a run of the mill martial artist from the Xin Yi Sect. My grandpa was the sect master of the Seven Kill Fist Sect twenty years ago. He was a peak level Internal Force user and had killed over a hundred timberwolves when he was young—”
“Xiao Hu, sit down and be quiet.” The old man cut the boy short.
The boy waggled his head a few times and sat down obediently.
However, everyone had heard Xiao Hu’s words, so they looked to each other fearfully.
Seven Kill Fist Sect? Peak level Internal Force user? Killed Timberwolves barehanded?
Why did these deeds sound so over the top? Timberwolves were deadly beasts and encountering just one of them would put a human’s life in danger, much less than a hundred of them.
“I wager that the old man might have been telling his grandson some wild tales.” Li Yichen calculated.
The old man registered the teenager’s doubts and therefore he heaved a sigh and said: that was a long time ago. Even since I was defeated by an enemy, I can barely hold up against a phenomenal success Internal Force user.”
“Who would be able to defeat you since you already sounded so powerful?” Zhang Yumeng asked as she battered her lashes.
“Hehe, although I was a peak Internal Force fighter, there are also semi-transcendent and the real Transcendent Grandmasters above me.” The old man shook his head, disheartened by his old memories. “The person who had defeated me was Lei Qianjue.”
“Lei Qianjue?”
This was the second time everyone had heard of this name, and it finally started to ring a bell.
This section of the water was closed off for the battle between Lei Qianjue and Chen Beixuan. It was evident to everyone how important these two were since even the popular tourist attractions had to close off because of their match.
“There, that one who was fis.h.i.+ng is Lei Qianjue.” The old man pointed his lips toward the center of the lake. Indignation and anger that had burned over a few decades were still visible in the old man’s eyes.
“That is Lei Qianjue?” Jiang Churan and her friends looked to the center of the lake and saw an old man in a white coat sitting in a boat at the center of the lake. He looked just like an ordinary fisherman and nothing extraordinary.
“Above the Internal Force users were the Transcendent Grandmasters. Even if Lei Qianjue was not the most powerful Transcendent Grandmaster, he is at least on the top five list.” The old man heaved a sigh.
