Two months later.
"For a warrior, the key is to cultivate one's own spirit, energy and vitality. One should not rely on others or other things, but only on oneself!"
On the training ground outside the Fuye Division, Gao Yuanlin, a fifth-rank Fuye Guard, was explaining martial arts knowledge to a group of boys and girls in front of him.
"But whether it's martial arts, Buddhism, or Taoism, even though the philosophies are different, everyone still divides the realm into nine levels."
“The first four stages of martial arts are body refining, qi storage, meridian opening, and purple palace.
"To cultivate the body is to train the muscles and bones externally to strengthen the body; to store the Qi is to cultivate the true Qi internally, to store the Qi in the body and to keep it constantly flowing; to open the meridians is to open all the acupoints and veins to the sea; and finally, to open up the purple palace, to achieve the state of seeing the subtle and knowing the profound.
"As for the realms beyond, they are still too far away from you, so I won't tell you about them for now."
"Today's focus is on the third stage of meridian opening. Currently, except for a few of you who have reached the third stage, most of you are still at the stage of storing qi, so you must listen carefully and prepare for the future!
"As the name suggests, Tongmai means strengthening the acupoints and unblocking the meridians. The human body has fifty extra-meridian acupoints, twelve meridians, and the most special Ren and Du meridians.
"And the purpose of Tongmai is to strengthen and open up all these extra-meridian acupoints, meridians, and the Ren and Du meridians. The experience you get from completing each stage is completely different.
"Therefore, we must be extra careful. Even if the others are also at the third level of Tongmai Realm, if someone has opened up the Ren and Du meridians, they can easily defeat those who are still in the stage of strengthening the extra meridians. Don't be careless..."
“Haa ...
Zhou Zhilu stood in the crowd, watching Commander Gao speaking tirelessly above him, and yawned out of boredom.
"Brother Zhou, didn't you get enough rest yesterday?" A handsome young man standing on Zhou Zhilu's left asked in a low voice.
Zhou Zhilu rolled his eyes and said, "That guy Fang Xu insisted on dragging me out for a drink yesterday. I still have a headache now."
A shorter young man standing to Zhou Zhilu's right said aggrievedly, "Zhou Zhilu! Speak with conscience. Who was it that insisted on drinking all the time yesterday? I couldn't stop him. Yunli, don't listen to his nonsense."
Yun Li smiled and said, "But Brother Zhou has already broken through to the third level of Tongmai Realm a few days ago, so it doesn't matter whether he attends this class or not."
Zhou Zhilu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this: "No one told me that I would have to attend a two-month boot camp before joining the Fuye Division..."
It turned out that since Zhou Zhilu agreed to let Tu Qing and Ling Qingxue join the Fuye Division, they came to the capital together.
But who would have thought that as soon as he arrived in the capital, Tu Qing threw him into the new recruit camp, and two months passed in a flash.
During this period, Zhou Zhilu also started martial arts training from scratch. Since he already had the cultivation of a second-level warrior, he was able to get started quite quickly.
In addition to some contacts during this period, Zhou Zhilu has almost figured out the little secrets of these people around him.
Take Fang Xu for example. He said every day that he wanted to go home early to see his sister. It was not until later that Zhou Zhilu discovered that this guy was not going home at all, but going to the brothel to see his sister!
After Zhou Zhilu found out, he started pestering Fang Xu, insisting on going with him to see how his sister was doing.
Fang Xu had no choice but to take Zhou Zhilu with him.
There are many similar things. Zhou Zhilu also took this opportunity to establish good relationships with many people. His cultivation level also increased little by little. He finally broke through to the Tongmai realm a few days ago and has just strengthened five acupoints.
"Ahem!" Gao Yuanlin glanced at the people who were talking quietly below and reminded them a few times.
Then, with his hands behind his back, he looked at the people in front of him and said in a deep voice: "The fact that you can join the recruit camp shows that you already have a good foundation. After these two months of training, I believe you have also taken a step closer.
"But you can't grow just by staying in the boot camp. You have to go through the baptism of actual combat to achieve transformation!
"So there will be a mission assessment tomorrow. After you pass the assessment... you can officially join the Fuye Division.
"The assessment task is to go to the village at the foot of Wuling Mountain, northeast of the capital, and eliminate the stronghold of the Xianling Sect."
At this time, a new soldier raised a question: "That's not right, Commander Gao. Isn't Fuyesi responsible for matters of demons and not for human affairs?"
Gao Yuanlin explained, "The Xianling Sect's stronghold was discovered by the Fuye Division while investigating a demon trafficking case. We suspect the Xianling Sect members are hiding a large number of demons in this stronghold, so this case is under the jurisdiction of the Fuye Division."
Someone else asked: "So what does it mean to pass the assessment?"
Gao Yuanlin glanced at the man and said coldly, "You'll pass if you come back alive."
Then he glanced at everyone and asked, "Any other questions? If not, we'll disband... I hope you return victorious!"
After the team disbanded, Zhou Zhilu, Fang Xu and Yun Li left the training ground together.
On the way, Fang Xu seemed a little excited and said excitedly, "Finally, I'm going on a mission! I've been practicing sword skills in the training grounds every day, and now I can finally put my skills to use!"
Yun Li was also a little excited and said with a smile: "Yes, practicing sword in the training ground is never very satisfying."
Zhou Zhilu said angrily, "We're going out to fight, why are you so happy like we're on a picnic?"
Having said that, Zhou Zhilu couldn't hide a slight smile on his face. After all, the knife had been sharpened for a long time, and it would be unpleasant if it was not unsheathed.
In Zhou Zhilu's opinion, this might be similar to how the organization in his previous life caught criminals.
"By the way, I still don't know who this Xianling Sect is?" Zhou Zhilu asked curiously.
Fang Xu quickly replied, "I know this! Our Great Song Kingdom has a vast territory. In addition to being home to many civil and military officials and noble families, it also has a wide variety of religious organizations.
"This sect is a well-documented organization that must be apprehended if encountered. I heard that this group of people keeps shouting about wanting the world's ancestors to return, and they even engage in inhumane activities like blood and flesh sacrifices."
