C13

In the Chu Country, there were two types of examinations: the Martial Arts Examination and the Literature Examination. However, they were held every ten years. This was a grand occasion that happened every ten years in the Chu Country!

Since the founding of Chu, it had been held twice. The first time was during the war, and this was the third time!

Every time the event was held, it would attract a large number of talents, both literary and martial!

Of course, it was for entering the imperial court. As an official of the imperial court, one's career was bright and one's future was limitless! As for martial artists, they naturally wanted to enter the Chu Country's army, charge in, and build a name for themselves!

Regardless of whether one was a civil warrior or a martial genius, their status was the same. They were all in the service of Chu.

Jiang Chuan practiced martial arts with old man Qi at the Wei family's military operations. This, however, opened a door for Jiang Chuan! Even though he wasn't a cultivator, he could do this!

"When humans were born, there were no cultivators! The first batch of powerful experts had been born in the martial way! Martial arts originated from cultivators! At that time, in order to resist the vicious beasts, the ancestors had summed up all the moves from observing their prey! These moves were later called martial arts! Even if it is a practitioner today, we will be able to see the figure of a martial artist on their body! "

This was the first sentence that elder Qi said to Jiang Chuan! Jiang Chuan also could not help but sigh with emotion! Who would have thought that this martial arts technique would actually be used before the practitioners!

"Currently, the status of martial artists is low, so not many people are willing to learn about it. However, it is said that a long time ago, there were powerful martial artists. At that time, martial artists and cultivators coexisted. Later on, most people felt that training in martial arts was difficult and took a long time, so they gave up on the path of martial arts! However, the legends said that on this continent, there were extremely powerful warriors who were not weaker than cultivators! He could even kill a cultivator as easily as taking out a bag of holding! "Hehe, it's just that those characters are existences from the legends. We don't even have the qualifications to look up to them."

"Old Qi, I've heard that you've killed sea cultivators before?" Jiang Chuan asked curiously. Of course, he had heard Wei Yan speak these words from Jiang Chuan.

Sigh, that was a long time ago. Now that I'm old, I can no longer move my body, how can I be a match for a cultivator?" Elder Qi sighed, but Jiang Chuan could still hear Elder Qi's strength from his words. He was not a cultivator, but he could still fight against cultivators! "Perhaps this is the charm of martial arts?

"It's impossible to learn it well in two months, but I can teach you a few killing moves that can be used in the Martial Arts Examination." Elder Qi muttered.

If Jiang Chuan wanted to learn it in two months, it would be impossible. Even if he was a peerless genius in martial arts, it would still be impossible to achieve that.

After practicing martial arts for a hundred years, Qi Lao naturally had a better understanding of martial arts than others, and his understanding of the human body was incomparable to others!

"In the human body, there are seven meridians and eight meridians, as well as a dantian. However, none of these are important. The most important thing is that there is a fatal lifeline in the human body!" As long as one grasped these mingmen, forget about Fasting Sea Cultivators, even Fake Core Cultivators would be able to kill them! Although they were cultivators, they were still humans! As long as one is able to grasp the life gate of the human body, even a light blow can cause a cultivator to lose their combat ability, and can even be fatal! "

Jiang Chuan was amazed! He didn't expect elder Qi to understand the human body so well!

That's right. Only someone with great martial arts attainments like Elder Qi would dare to say such words!

"When one reaches the peak of martial arts, they can still be compared to cultivators. Such a character is known as an ancient martial artist!" There should be more of such people on this continent! They were terrifyingly strong when it came to breaking through the path of martial arts! What we know right now might not even be considered their fur, but it's something that can be used for the rest of our lives. "

"Martial arts can also reach such a realm?" "You don't need dantian?" Jiang Chuan asked, puzzled, "Can you be that strong even without a dantian?"

"Hehe, you think too simply of this continent. There are countless humans, and there are always people who think of some unworldly methods!"

Jiang Chuan was amazed, this Old Qi's knowledge was truly vast! He actually knew about such things!

"Alright, let's cut the crap. Today, I will let you understand the life gate of the human body. Martial arts, learning it or not is not an issue for now, but you must remember the life gate of the human body firmly!" "I've heard from Little Yan that your archery skills are not bad, to use an arrow to break your mingmen is indeed a method." Old Qi muttered.

Jiang Chuan nodded his head and began to study seriously with elder Qi.

However, in the following days, elder Qi was incomparably amazed. Not only was Jiang Chuan an outstanding archer, but he was also an extraordinary genius in the Dao of Martial Arts!

Not only that, Jiang Chuan's understanding of combat surpassed those of the same age, as if he had already gone through a battle to the death!

However, when he heard that Jiang Chuan had beheaded a vicious beast with a core at the age of ten, he was relieved! Such a person must have experienced life and death before!

Jiang Chuan's understanding of combat was also very simple. It was the fight between hunters and their prey! Elder Qi also agreed with Jiang Chuan's point of view. In the end, they were only hunters and prey!

Jiang Chuan had been hunting in the mountains with the old man all year round. His muscles and bones had long been refined to an incomparably sturdy state.

For ordinary people, it would take several months before they could see through the rudiments of the technique. For Jiang Chuan, it had been a few days since he had practiced it thoroughly!

"The muscles and bones in your body are probably even better than mine when I was younger!" Elder Qi could not help but sigh.

That was true. Not only did Jiang Chuan enter the mountain to hunt all year round, but after he failed to open his Dan Sea, he was soaked in the medicinal liquid every day. Even normal cultivators wouldn't be able to get such treatment!

During the time that Jiang Chuan had soaked in the medicinal liquid, his physique had greatly improved! Moreover, at the beginning, Jiang Chuan had even soaked in the Fierce Toothed Tiger's inner core! He was even stronger than ordinary people.

Over the past month, Jiang Chuan had learned all of the killing moves that elder Qi had given him!

Old Qi nodded his head. This kind of good seedling for martial arts cultivation was truly rare!

"Alright, you've already learned the killing move. Next is the time for actual combat. I didn't expect you to be this fast, but you've already used everything you know on me." Elder Qi said to Jiang Chuan.

"Elder Qi, are you not afraid that I will hurt you?" Jiang Chuan asked worriedly.

"Heh heh, this half bowl of water of yours can actually hurt me? It's fine, just go all out! If you are able to defeat me, you don't need to participate in the Martial Empire Competition! "No one will be a match for you!" Elder Qi said with a smile.

Jiang Chuan nodded his head. He was a bit too arrogant. After practicing martial arts for hundreds of years, how could he have been injured by him?

Sure enough, Jiang Chuan couldn't even get into the old man's body during the two's daily matches. Each time, Elder Qi would easily resolve the situation.

"The moves are dead and the person is alive. Only after experiencing thousands of battles can one use them freely. Only after the martial arts plate has been used will you truly enter the martial arts industry!" Elder Qi said with a smile.

"Thank you for your guidance, elder Qi!" Jiang Chuan cupped his fist and said. Besides his grandfather, this was the first person to teach him, worthy of Jiang Chuan's respect!

"This old man will accompany you in your training for the remaining month." Old Qi muttered.

Jiang Chuan cupped his fists. In the last month, he never left the Wei family's military operations.
