Chapter 48 Qualifications
In a large and spacious martial arts arena in the new district of Beijing, three young men in black training clothes had just finished performing a set of boxing techniques.
These three young men were about fourteen or fifteen years old. They were the young masters of the Ning family’s side branch, Ning Hanyu, Ning Hanling, and Ning Hankun.
The exhausted people supported each other and came to the lounge. A tall and beautiful maid stood at the door. Ning Hanling took the warm towel from the maid's hand. The shorter one in the middle, Ning Hanling, covered his face with the towel and fell on the sofa, groaning and rolling twice.
"Why hasn't the therapist come yet? I'm so sore all over, I need to relax." Ning Hanling muttered lazily.
"I don't know who complained that the therapist was not pretty, and the one who was pretty had poor skills. Well, you have so many problems, and who knows how good the new therapist will be?" complained the tall Ning Han.
"They should be doing pre-job training now. We can only wait for a while." Ning Hanyu, who looked relatively steady, shrugged and said.
"We have bodyguards and followers. Why should a young master from a noble family practice outdated martial arts? We don't need to fight, so wouldn't it be better for him to practice spiritual skills directly?" Ning Hanling grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"Stop talking nonsense. If your uncle hears this, he will beat you up. The purpose of practicing martial arts is to strengthen your body. Only when your body is strong can you better accommodate spiritual energy. Are you laying the foundation? Or do you have an incredible talent and don't need to improve your physical strength?" Ning Hankun said as a warning.
"It would be great if I had incredible talent. Third brother, do you think the spirit stone test is accurate? I'm only C-level. It's so damn unscientific. I can't even practice top-level skills. Didn't you see how my dad's face turned green?" Ning Hanling said with a bitter face.
"You should be content! After all, only a few people have A-level qualifications and can practice top-level skills. At least you can still practice. My eldest brother's score is below 60 points, so he can't practice. My dad is almost worried to death." Ning Hanyu said.
"Alas, you see, the number of spirit stones for testing is so small, and the research institute has only made a dozen or so. The common people have nothing to test, so how can they choose their skills?" Ning Hanling sat up on the sofa with a somersault.
"You think too much. Do you think the martial arts method is so easy to obtain? You still have to choose." Ning Hankun sneered.
"When the family organizes a hunt, each team must have at least 20 people, and they are all young and strong men who have practiced martial arts. It is luck for ordinary people to get a martial arts book or a treasure. Generally, what they get are low-level and ordinary martial arts. If you can practice, you practice, but if you can't, there is nothing you can do. But I heard from my father that the clan has given the people in the Red List branch a task to purchase all the things dropped by monsters, because some high-level martial arts, and even strange spiritual tools, cannot be used by ordinary people at all. Let them collect those things to see if there is any chance of finding a bargain." Ning Hankun's father is a middle-level deacon of the Red List organization. He has some power and is well-informed.
"Have you heard? The seventh uncle from the third branch of the direct line scored over 200 points, which is a super S-level that is against the sky." Ning Hanling said with a gossipy look on his face.
"Are you talking about the illegitimate child? I've heard about it too. It seems that he is the only one in the clan who is super S-level." Ning Hanyu said in a low voice.
"With a talent of more than 200 points, I wonder what it feels like to practice? Is it the speed or the power? What do you think, will he soar to the sky this time? I heard that the eldest lady of the Gong family has been waiting for him! It is said that he is very handsome, but unfortunately when I was able to attend the banquet, he had already left the capital. Have you seen him?" Ning Hanling said mysteriously!
"What's the use of being good-looking? He's still an illegitimate child who must not be seen in public. Two days ago, when Mrs. Ying brought people to find him, her face was not looking good. I heard that Uncle Qi secretly wanted to take him back to Chongzhou." Ning Hanyu said excitedly.
"No way! Didn't I hear before that he went out hunting with the team and got lost? It's already this late! The army doesn't dare to leave the city easily. Going across the province to Chongzhou at this time, haven't I heard that Uncle Qi is crazy?" Ning Hanling had an expression of disbelief on his face.
"According to the gossip I got, he has already married and had children in Chongzhou, and his family doesn't know anything about it." Ning Hanyu said proudly.
"Impossible! I heard from my aunt that he and Miss Gong are a couple." Ning Hanling widened his eyes.
"Enough, why don't you just practice martial arts properly instead of having the leisure time? It has nothing to do with us. But I can tell you, the more talented Uncle Seventh is, the harder his life will be." Ning Hankun said this in a low voice and gestured to shut up.
The new chef was a round-faced, slightly plump woman. She walked towards them with a faint smile on her face.
"Oh no!" Ning Hanling, who was extremely obsessed with looks, groaned, obviously extremely dissatisfied with the appearance of the new therapist.
Ning Hanling gave him a warning look, and Ning Hanling reluctantly shut his mouth.
The main hall of Ning’s house.
Sitting at the top was an energetic old man. He put down the white jade tea bowl in his hand, frowned and looked at his son who was standing at the bottom. His temples were slightly gray but he was still very elegant.
"I know what you said. Not to mention that Qingyun didn't get hurt, even if something really happened, what can I do? What the family needs now is not a genius, but concerted efforts. When the children were young, we didn't pay attention to the fights between them, and your wife made Qingyun suffer a lot. Qingyun moved out of home before he reached adulthood, and refused any help from his family. It was obvious that he was holding a grudge. Now those brothers who bullied him are afraid that he will retaliate in the future, so they won't tolerate him. They have to strike first. It's not just one or two people who are doing this, and the law cannot hold everyone responsible, let alone at this time." There was regret and reluctance in the old man's eyes, but the meaning revealed in his words made Ning Qingyun's biological father, Mr. Ning San, feel cold in his heart.
"Dad, you mean to condone their attempt to murder Qingyun? Qingyun is alone and weak, without any foundation. What threat can he pose to them? Aren't you afraid that once this trend starts, the clan will never be able to live in peace again?" Although Master Ning San had never paid much attention to his son, he was his biological son after all. He was very angry when he learned that his son was murdered. Unfortunately, Master Ning San had never been doing his job properly and had very limited power. He was not sure he could protect his son, so he had to ask his old father for help. Who knew he would get such an answer.
"Do you think I am willing to lose the only genius in my family? But in the current situation, the most important thing is to keep people's hearts stable. Qingyun did not have the ability to threaten them before, but it is hard to say in the future." The old man's face was not looking good.
"If Qingyun had ambitions, he wouldn't have run to Chongzhou." Master Ning San was still arguing.
"That was before. At that time, he had no chance, no advantage. Was he going to stay here and suffer? It's different now. The future world will be different. It will be a world that advocates personal strength. He has been tested for his extraordinary talent, and he will have many followers if he grows up smoothly." The more the old man spoke, the more suffocated he felt.
"Isn't that a good thing for us?" Looking at the old man's expression, Mr. Ning San was puzzled.
