Chapter 294 - The First Person in History! (1/2)

Chapter 294 The First Person in History!“Although the Heaven and Earth Treasures are able to reinforce one’s meridians, there are still many risks involved in opening and expanding one’s meridians. These items would only be able to reduce some of these risks,” Elder Yi said solemnly as he looked at Fang Qiu.

“The risks and dangers one would face would depend on one’s fortunes,” he said.

Suddenly, Fang Qiu who had remained very still and silent while Elder Yi was talking reached out and grabbed Elder Yi’s arm and started to do a thorough check-up.

Elder Yi stiffened for a brief moment before he quickly relaxed.

A while later.

“Based on your current condition, I’d say you’d be able to advance to grade-three Martial Superior with some difficulty but if the Earth Treasures are indeed as effective as you say they are, it would not be a problem for you to advance to grade-three,” Fang Qiu said after he concluded his check-up.

“Really?” Elder Yi exclaimed in joy.

“Yes,” Fang Qiu said with a nod.

“Alright, I’ll have to rely on your help next,” Elder Yi said with an excited smile.

Since the mysterious man had already looked through his ancestor’s notes, this meant that he was willing to help. Thus, Elder Yi did not stand on ceremony at all.

“We’re just taking what we each need,” Fang Qiu said.

“Shall we set off three days later? Based on my observation, the Bingdi Lotus should be ripe in the next few days,” Elder Yi said.

“Sure!” Fang Qiu nodded.

“That’s settled then,” Elder Yi said with a wide smile as he nodded.

After they fixed a date, Fang Qiu left after agreeing on a meeting place with Elder Yi.

On the other hand, the crowd of martial arts practitioners gathered in the manor had not dissipated.

Everyone was waiting for the mysterious man to make a reappearance.

However, they failed to see him but instead, they were notified that he had already left.

Everyone felt very dejected but they had no choice but to leave while refreshing the forum homepage.

At the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine.

Fang Qiu quickly rushed back to the university under the cover of the night. Then, he changed into his regular clothes and strode back to his dormitory with a satisfied smile.

He had made the right decision by going to the gathering today!

He had reaped gleaned very important pieces of information over the past few hours.

He had even opened a new method of improving his mental power from an acupuncture treasure book before he left for the gathering. This made him even more keenly aware of the importance of mental power.

Naturally, the most important information he had gleaned was how to get his Dantian to bear flowers.

He had already found the answer on how to get his Dantian to bear flowers despite not having a clue earlier. Now, that he knew the exact method, he couldn’t help but feel excited.

Most crucially, Elder Yi’s ancestor made no mention of super-powerful experts with two, or even three flowers. This meant that there weren’t that many such experts.

Most people within the Wulin had no idea that a Dantian could bear three flowers, and even the importance of expanding one’s meridians, so there were very few who managed to reach the top of the martial way.

Now that he had gained an understanding of the situation, he felt as though he might be able to carve a unique path for himself.

This was because he was the first person in history who managed to defeat a Martial Superior while at martial arts practitioner level.

He was the only person who was able to use his internal force to overcome his opponent’s internal Qi!

He returned to his dorm.

The moment he opened the door, he saw Zhu Benzheng and two others crowded around his study.

“What are you doing?” Fang Qiu asked.

All three of them turned to look at him.

Their expressions immediately changed when they saw that he had returned and they looked at him resentfully.

“The youngest, I didn’t expect you to be that kind of person!” Zhu Benzheng said solemnly as he looked at Fang Qiu.

“I’m really disappointed in you,” Sun Hao said with a sigh. He shook his head and looked very weary.

“I, I can only say that I look down on you and I despise you,” Zhou Xiaotian said earnestly as he glared at Fang Qiu.

Fang Qiu was completely confused.

What were his three friends up to?

What was going on?

“What are you trying to say?” He asked incredulously.

“What else can we say?” Zhou Xiaotian said as he scoffed.

“This is your handiwork, so how dare you question us?” Sun Hao said as he rolled his eyes.

“The youngest, it’s not that I don’t want to speak up for you and I can’t blame the others for being so angry either. You’ve truly gone too far this time, so I can’t help you,” Zhu Benzheng said with a sigh.

Fang Qiu was even more confused than ever.

“What’s going on? Why don’t I understand what you’re trying to say?” He said with a wry smile.

“Are you still trying to deny it? Sun Hao said as he jumped to his feet in righteous anger. He shot out his hand and said loudly, “This is evidence. Do you dare to deny it?”

Fang Qiu looked at Sun Hao’s palm and realized that Sun Hao had somehow managed to untie the 20 coins that he had strung up in the afternoon.

“This is it?” He asked in surprise.

“What’s wrong? Is that not enough for you?” Sun Hao said with a cold scoff. Then, he said, “You wastrel. This is 20 yuan! 20 yuan! This would be enough to cover my expenses for the day, so how could you destroy money in this manner?”

“Yes, you’ve gone too far this time. You can’t do that even if you have money. Moreover, it is a crime to mutilate currency. Do you not know that?” Zhu Benzheng asked solemnly.

“Since you don’t know what to do with so much money, you could buy me a drink or treat me to a meal. Why did you have to go to such extremes?” Zhou Xiaotian said as he took the coins from Sun Hao’s hand.

He looked very upset as he said, “Look at how cute and beautiful these coins are. How could you deface these pretty things? Why don’t you put your hand over your heart and answer truthfully; tell us how did you manage to bring yourself to mutilate these beautiful things?”

Fang Qiu was speechless.

His three friends were clearly making a mountain out of a molehill.
