He had originally intended to take on apprentices.

However, the other party's martial arts talent was even stronger than he had imagined. After studying under him for only one year, he had integrated both internal and external boxing techniques and reached the peak of internal strength.

How could he, who was already at the peak of internal strength, possibly accept someone of the same level as his disciple?

Two years later, Zhang Li broke through to the level of Hua Jin.

This left Guan Mingsheng both delighted and regretful.

If he had met Zhang Li a few years earlier, he would have taken him as his disciple directly, thus gaining another disciple with the Transformation Realm.

Fortunately, Zhang Li is a grateful person. Every year during the Spring Festival, he would personally visit with gifts, and he would also send someone to deliver a gift during other holidays.

Guan Mingsheng knew that if he approached Zhang Li, the latter would definitely not refuse.

However, this would change the nature of their relationship.

"Old Guan, you're planning to pass the martial arts school on to that kid Guan Lu, aren't you!"

Seeing Guan Mingsheng's hesitation, the Gao family head continued, "To put it bluntly, what we martial artists are cultivating is that inner strength. If Guan Lu doesn't unleash that inner strength this time, he'll probably only reach the peak of Dark Force at best, and it will be impossible for him to reach the Transformation Realm!"

"Okay, I'll go find Zhang Li right now!"

After hearing what Lao Gao said, Guan Mingsheng no longer hesitated. Guan Lu was the most talented among the younger generation, and everyone had high hopes for him.

If he can achieve enlightenment, it will be of great benefit to the Guan family, as well as the other four closely connected families!

Normally, Guan Mingsheng would not go to Zhang Li, but when it came to the future of the Guan family and the other four families, he had to swallow his pride.
