Chapter 1207 Everyone Has a Chance to Practice (Third Update, Please Subscribe)

"The world has almost been divided up, and what's left is being divided up, conquered and colonized. What a pity we can't reach the stars that twinkle so high above us at night! If I could, I would swallow up those stars: I have often thought of this. It makes me sad to see them so bright and yet so far away."

For every imperialist, conquest is what they desire most. They desire expansion and conquest. This is the instinct of all imperialists.

But what kind of people are imperialists?

Imperialists can be anyone, including officials of the empire, civilians, and, of course, the most insignificant people. Students who explore the Amazon basin and Ming-American merchants doing business around the world look like ordinary people on the surface, but in fact, they are all imperialists, just showing different behaviors.

But one thing is certain: as the empire grows stronger, all its subjects can benefit from it. Just like in Ecuador today, with the construction of the "Minge International Railway", a large number of Ming engineers came here, and thousands of merchants and all kinds of mixed people also poured into Quito and other Ecuadorian cities. With their arrival, commercial conquest quickly swept across Ecuador with unstoppable momentum.

Not only that, Ming Dynasty restaurants, cinemas, and other Ming Dynasty lifestyles are also penetrating and influencing the lives of Ecuadorians in all aspects. In recent times, even martial arts gyms have become popular in Quito, and it seems that martial arts gyms have become a standard feature of Ming Dynasty settlements.

"The strength of the empire is not only the strength of science, but also the strength of individuals, and the strength of individuals is due to Kung Fu!"

In the martial arts school, Master Ma Baoguo once again taught "martial arts" to his disciples. Although he failed to spread martial arts in Mexico, he successfully opened a martial arts school in Quito, the capital of Ecuador, after several twists and turns.

Not only did he successfully open a martial arts school, but he also accepted dozens of apprentices, including lawyers, doctors, and of course more students. They were all attracted by Master Ma's "Kung Fu to Strengthen the Country Theory."

"Master, what about boxing? Can boxing make a person stronger?"

The eldest disciple, Fokos, asked hurriedly.

"Boxing is nothing more than a martial art, just to defeat the opponent. It is essentially a barbaric and immoral martial art. Kung Fu, in China, is also called "Wu Gong". Wu means to practice martial arts and is the first way to pursue truth. The spirit of martial arts is to stop wars and quell conflicts..."

Ma Baoguo pretended to be profound and explained his "way of martial arts" to his disciples in Spanish. Of course, he said at the end.

"Every martial art has its own strengths. As a father, I will never maliciously discredit other fighting techniques. This is an act without martial ethics, and martial ethics is also a kind of practice..."

"Martial virtue?"

An Ecuadorian youth nearby heard this and said indifferently:

"Martial virtue is also based on strength, just like the Ming Dynasty and Ecuador. Without strength, how can you win respect?"

The young man looked at the martial arts hall and sneered.

"Just like your martial arts school, if you were not from the Ming Dynasty, I'm afraid you wouldn't even be able to open one. You said boxing is a barbaric and immoral martial art, so I would like to ask you what morality is, what is martial ethics..."

The young man made a gesture of invitation and walked out without waiting for Ma Baoguo to agree or not.

Only then did the disciples around see clearly that someone had come to challenge them!

"Master, you don't need to do anything to deal with people like this. I can do it myself..."

Just as Fox was about to step forward, Master Ma spoke.

"Stand here. Today I will take this opportunity to show you what martial arts is all about!"

Waving his hand, Ma Baoguo walked out and stood opposite the local boxer who had taken off his coat to reveal his muscular body.

The man shrugged his wrists, stepped with his left and right feet, and raised his fists in an attacking posture.

Then, he shouted and rushed over. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.

“Boom!”

As a result, his wish had not yet come true, and before he could even reach Ma Baoguo, he was kicked back by him, falling to the ground and rolling over.

The people around were all so surprised that they were speechless. Some even covered their mouths with their hands, their eyes wide open, simply unable to believe what was happening before their eyes. This guy looked to be at least 1.9 meters tall and weighed 100 kilograms, how could he be kicked away by someone?

The young boxer who was kicked in the head lay on the ground gasping for breath, and spoke after a while.

"You, how can you use your legs!"

"Young man, the way of martial arts lies not only in the cultivation of virtue, but also in the training of the body. In essence, it is to turn every part of the body into a weapon, fists, feet, legs...Young man, learn your lesson!"

Master Ma bowed, ignored the discussions around him, and spoke to his apprentices.

"Okay, send him out..."

By the time all his disciples had left the martial arts gym, Ma Baoguo was in such a good mood. In fact, he had been expecting someone to come and challenge him.

But the problem is... relying on the name of the empire, no one dares to challenge him, even this one today... Well, he was also invited by him for a few pesos.

But the effect is remarkable!

Thinking of the admiring looks his disciples gave him, Ma Baoguo suddenly felt much better.

"To strengthen the country through military force, hey, only you, Ma Baoguo, can come up with such a good name..."

While feeling proud, Ma Baoguo began to think about his theory again.

"What is this "strengthening the country through martial arts"? Well, not only does everyone have books to read, but everyone also has to practice martial arts. Reading books is science, and practicing martial arts is martial arts!"

What a genius!

After connecting the two, Ma Baoguo felt more than just proud; he almost felt like flying.

"Yes, that is, everyone has books to read and everyone has skills to practice! In the future, you should tell your disciples more about this and tell them that this is the way to make the country strong."

There are many patriotic people in Ecuador who care about their country. They have been looking for ways to make the country strong. What are they looking for?

There is clear evidence that the Ming Dynasty is a powerful country!

Just learn from the Ming Dynasty. How did the Ming Dynasty become so powerful?

"It depends on everyone having books to read and everyone having skills to practice!"

The next morning, in the "Hunyuan Tai Chi Hall", the head master Ma Baoguo, faced his hundreds of disciples and once again taught them the powerful inside story of the empire. Naturally, such inside story attracted many local aspiring young people.

There is no way. Everyone always admires the strong. As the empire becomes stronger, Chinese food becomes increasingly popular in America. As the empire becomes stronger, even using chopsticks is proof of brain exercise. As for martial arts... of course, it is also part of the empire's strength.

For those people, the power of the Ming Empire is fascinating and enviable. Of course, they also know that their country can never be as powerful as the Ming Dynasty, but it does not prevent them from imitating that powerful empire with a yearning mood.

Just as they were imitating the way to make the country strong by "everyone has the opportunity to practice", someone suddenly rushed in. It was Ma Baoguo's apprentice. As soon as he entered the door, he held the newspaper in his hand and spoke loudly.

"Master, Master, something happened..."

After taking the newspaper, Ma Baoguo was immediately shocked by the news in the newspaper. He couldn't help but be surprised.

"Oh my God, who has the guts to do such a thing?"

The reason why he was so surprised was that the news in the newspaper was too shocking - someone here actually dared to kill Ming people!
