Chapter 50 Questioning
Cheng Zitong, upon hearing him say this, warned him, "Think carefully. There are risks involved here. If you fail, you'll be demoted back to a Class B student, and everything you've worked so hard for will be lost."
Chen Chuan said: "Teacher Cheng, there are definitely gains and losses on the road of fighting, but what you have learned will not be lost, and students also have confidence in themselves."
Cheng Zitong said, "Okay, no matter what the future holds, you are now my student, Cheng Zitong's only student. Since you have made this decision, I will do my best to provide you with the help I can."
Chen Zhenxin said: "Thank you, teacher!"
Cheng Zitong said: "In this case, let's study it and solve them one by one.
This exam does not include third-year students, only first- and second-year students. However, having said that, I think there are very few first-year students with your ability, so your main competitors are second-year students.
It takes a total of six months from the registration time to the exam, and the registration time is valid until the end of the year. That is to say, within the next three months, you have to complete at least three important delegated tasks and get an evaluation of excellent or above to be eligible to register. I will find a way for you in this regard. I, your teacher, still have some face.
However, another registration requirement is mastering your strength. Needless to say, if your mutant organization continues to grow like this, it will endanger your life in three months, so we must find a way to control it."
Chen Chuanxin said yes, this is the most critical thing at the moment and the premise of everything. If you can't master it, there is nothing more to say.
Cheng Zitong looked at Chen Chuan and continued, "Now that you have determination, you must take action. The next key point is to teach you how to master the power. Now change into your training clothes and go to a place with the teacher."
Chen Chuan said: "Okay, teacher, wait a moment."
He got up and went back to the bedroom. After thinking for a while, he changed into the green training suit and tied the green headband on his head.
After he came out, Cheng Zitong looked at him and nodded unconsciously. This student was already good-looking, and now after changing into such an outfit, he looked as graceful as a jade tree, handsome and elegant. As a teacher, he felt very proud when he walked outside.
He waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
He took Chen Chuan downstairs, went out the front door, walked to a white Perry sedan, opened the door, asked Chen Chuan to get in, and went to the driver's seat.
After both of them fastened their seat belts and sat firmly, Cheng Zitong started the car and drove towards the east of Wuyi Academy.
After about ten minutes, the surrounding buildings gradually disappeared, and two hills about three or four hundred meters high appeared in the field of vision ahead.
The Wuyi campus is very large, with three hills inside. The two hills are called Beifeng and Nanqiu, located in the north and south directions respectively.
The car drove all the way to the foot of the mountain and continued to drive up along the mountain road. Soon, it arrived in front of a building on the top of the mountain. The exterior of the building was very ancient, with flying eaves, white walls and black tiles. The square in front was paved with blue bricks, and there were several tall pine and cypress trees planted on both sides.
After the car stopped, the two men got out. Standing here, Chen Chuan could clearly see the mountain stream surrounding the North Peak opposite and a large manor-like garden villa, which was where the recommended students lived.
Regardless of whether they are A-grade students or B-grade students, they usually have no contact with them and cannot see each other. Although they are in the same institution, they are like people from two different worlds.
Cheng Zitong walked up, greeted the security guard at the gate, and called Chen Chuan to go inside, walked through the vestibule, and then through a martial arts field paved with square bricks, and came to the main building at the end.
It can be seen that this place was built entirely with today's building materials, but with some antique styles. There are also security guards from the college patrolling around.
Cheng Zitong walked up the steps and came to the two thick doors. He took out a key, inserted it, and unlocked the door. Then he pushed with one hand, and the two heavy doors slid inward. He turned around and said, "Change your shoes and come in."
Chen Chuan walked over and changed into a pair of cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles in front of the door. After entering and passing the entrance hall, he saw that this was a spacious training hall with a shiny floor. Above the bottom wall hung a plaque with the three words "Wen Guotang" written on it. Against the wall on both sides stood a row of old bookshelves, piled on them were bundles of old-fashioned bamboo slips that are no longer seen today.
Cheng Zitong waited for him to come over and said, "Stand still."
Chen Chuan stood still as he was told.
Cheng Zitong walked up behind him, tapped his back with some technique, and asked, "Do you feel any tingling, numbness, or swelling?"
Chen Chuan replied: "No."
Cheng Zitong's expression relaxed a bit. "You haven't developed the symptoms I mentioned before, which means you've adapted well to the Xiqiao breathing method. The alienated tissue hasn't yet taken over your body. However, as long as it continues to grow, it's only a matter of time. So the breathing method I used earlier was just to build a foundation for you. This is the official start. Wait here for now."
Chen Chuan said yes.
Chengzi walked in through a side door and came out after a while, also wearing a dark brown training suit. Although he had a round face, this suit gave him a different kind of demeanor.
He walked to the center of the arena, sat cross-legged on a cushion, and said, "Sit."
Chen Chuan found a soft cushion opposite him and sat down cross-legged like him. At this time, he smelled a hint of fragrance. He looked over and saw that an incense burner placed there was lit at some point. The fragrance smelled very comfortable and made people feel calm and peaceful. He couldn't help thinking, Teacher, you have a great sense of ritual.
Cheng Zitong pointed upward and behind him and said, "Do you know why this place is called the Wenguo Hall? Because learning is endless, and one must be respectful and cautious. If a student makes a mistake, the master may also be at fault, and one must constantly reflect on oneself. That's why in the past, martial artists would engage in conversations under this plaque, asking each other about their mistakes."
Chen Chuan nodded. He also discovered that although this teacher spoke and behaved very casually, as if he didn't care about those old rules at all, he was actually deeply influenced by the old times.
Cheng Zitong said, "So, we teachers and students don't have a one-man show. If you're wrong, I'll definitely point it out. But if I'm wrong, if what I say is wrong, you can also point it out if you think it's wrong. That's also for the teacher's benefit, understand?"
Chen Chuan shook his head and said, "No, Teacher Cheng is very good."
Cheng Zitong sighed and said, "Don't say that. People always make mistakes. If I did something wrong, you must point it out. You must point it out."
After explaining all this, he straightened his expression and said, "From today on, I will begin to guide you in the cultivation of Jinli. Before teaching, I must first explain clearly what Jinli is.
You already understand that strength is activated through alienated tissue. This is the first stage in which the fighter actively guides and utilizes the alienated tissue, from the beginning to the end of restraint. This entire process is what we now call the "first limit." In the old days, this step was called "accumulating the true seed."
Of course, some obscure religious sects of the past call it "raising a demon fetus." Regardless, this stage has been held in high regard since ancient times. This is the true beginning of utilizing the alienated organization, and it's also the true foundation for your journey to the highest levels of martial arts. "Hmm, do you have any questions?"
Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Teacher, I've been thinking, nowadays we can use surgery and drugs to stimulate or suppress abnormal tissues, but how did people solve this problem in the old days?"
Cheng Zitong said, "Let me put it this way. According to existing data, the continuous growth of alienated organizations was not common in the past. Most of the time, they would stop and start. Now, this situation has only begun to increase since the Algae Revolution.
As for the reasons, some people believe that it is caused by the frequent use of various drugs and biotechnologies after the algae liquid revolution; some believe that it is simply because there are more channels for information exchange, and naturally more people know about such things; others believe that it is simply because the number of people practicing fighting techniques has increased. These statements actually have some truth to them.
But you have to know that before the emergence of hot weapons, conflicts were frequent in the old era. Whether in the military or among the people, martial arts experts were all participants. The more skilled they were, the faster they died. Therefore, not many people died of natural causes. Some people died before any problems even occurred.
Another thing is that in the old days, whether it was the imperial center or the folk boxers, they all had a set of long-established and effective methods. They would search for successors who matched their fighting style, retaining those who adapted, while those who didn't were eliminated early, or using special methods to cut off their martial arts path, thus indirectly avoiding this kind of thing."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Thank you, teacher, for clearing up my doubts."
Cheng Zitong said, "Do you have any other questions?"
Chen Chuan looked at him, stood up from the ground, and said seriously: "I understand. Please teach me the method of strength." As he said that, he clasped his hands together and bowed forward.
