"Xu's Martial Arts School... should be here."

Liu Qilin looked at the plaque above the martial arts hall and muttered to himself.

A family like the Xu family naturally has many industries in Shanghai.

The martial arts school is not large and does not generate much revenue for the Xu family each year. However, as an ancient martial arts family, the Xu family will naturally not give up the operation of the martial arts school.

Many parents are also happy to send their children to learn martial arts and fighting skills for self-defense.

But today is Thursday, and the martial arts gym seems a little deserted.

Liu Qilin looked around but did not see Jiang Bei... He did not want to call Jiang Bei to urge him.

After thinking for a moment, he walked straight to the door.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the staff guarding the door. "Sorry, the martial arts school is closed today. Please come back another day."

Liu Qilin also knew the reason, it must be because of the competition between Jiangbei and the Xu family, so he explained: "I am here to challenge."

“…”

Fortunately, Jiang Bei gave Liu Qilin some money, allowing him to find a similar environment to live.

Although Liu Qilin did not spend the money on buying clothes, at least the set he wore when wandering... was washed clean in the washing machine in the rental house.

It doesn’t look very good, and even looks a bit rustic…

but!

But in the eyes of the gatekeeper of Xu's martial arts school, it is completely different!

Who is he waiting for outside?

It’s the peerless genius who is waiting to compete with the eldest lady today!

What is a peerless genius? It must be someone who is about the same age as the young lady... but much more powerful.

Looking at Liu Qilin's age, he obviously meets the requirements, and his outfit is indeed unusual, just like that of an aloof academic master who doesn't care about his appearance at all.

Plus, the purpose of his coming here is to challenge...that should be it!

The gatekeeper didn't dare ask any more questions and quickly invited him in.

…

Inside the Xu family martial arts school.

The stage is set.

But the atmosphere was somewhat silent.

Xu Jiansheng, Xu Changlin and other members of the Xu family had already arrived, and Xu Wanqing was waiting aside.

But if that were all, the atmosphere shouldn't be like this. As an old master, Mr. Xu should at least give his granddaughter more guidance before the battle.

In the duel with the Grandmaster later, I need to pay attention to something...

It was impossible for Jiang Bei to really come here to compete with Xu Wanqing.

It is true that he had this purpose, but he came here because he felt a little guilty about breaking off the engagement!

Not only the Xu family knows this truth, but the Xue family also knows it!

Another reason for this atmosphere is that Xue Yu is also there.

It would be a lie for the Xu family to say they were not afraid of this girl, whose strength they had witnessed with their own eyes.

On the one hand, there is Xue Yu’s strength. Without having fought with real swords and guns, they cannot judge how his strength compares to Xu Wanqing.

The only time she took action was when she was fighting against a Grandmaster...

But even if Xue Yu is not as good as Xu Wanqing, the difference is not that big.

The other reason was the reason why Xue Yu came from afar!

I'm afraid it's not easy.

Therefore, the Xu family has to be on guard against Xue Yu for now, so it's natural not to give any more instructions.

Looking at the time, Jiangbei should be arriving soon.

Was just saying that.

A man came in from the gate...

Everyone in the Xu family stood up at once!

But when they saw this person's face clearly... their faces turned cold.

Where are you from, kid?

How dare you disturb me at this time!

And the guy at the door, how did he let him in?!

Although he was a little angry, Xu Jiansheng still had an awkward but polite smile on his face and waited quietly until Liu Qilin came closer.

Honestly…

This situation also confused Liu Qilin.

When he came over, why did everyone stand up so quickly?

Isn't he just a kid from a poor family? If I'm not mistaken, the one sitting in the center is the patriarch of the Xu family, Xu Jiansheng, who was there during the discussion at Mount Huashan!

The head of the Xu family took the initiative to stand up and greet a small follower like me?

Is that too much?

He also recognized Xu Wanqing, and the rest were, as expected, core members of the Xu family.

Liu Qilin swallowed his saliva. He was already unconfident, and now he didn't know what to do.

My feet just felt heavy.

Every step is difficult.

Finally, he came to the front of the Xu family, bowed slightly, and saluted Xu Jiansheng: "Master Xu."

Xu Jiansheng nodded slightly and waited for the other party to introduce himself.

However, judging from the steady steps he took and the blood and energy around him, this man is indeed quite powerful.

Moreover, when walking, the energy is already revealed!

He recognized me immediately. I don’t know which old friend’s grandson took advantage of the Huashan Taoist conference to become a master and came to visit me specially.

Thinking of this, and the young man's relatively respectful look, Xu Jiansheng and the Xu family's anger at being "cheated" also subsided a little.

But who would have thought...

Although Liu Qilin's attitude was nice, he was not polite at all when he spoke.

Liu Qilin took a deep breath, then said with a firm look, "Liu Qilin from the Jiangnan Liu family is here to challenge you."

There's nothing we can do.

The emotional intelligence is indeed not very high.

What do you have to say? It belongs to...

But it was just a repetition of Jiang Bei's expression.

but……

When these words fell into the ears of everyone in the Xu family, they didn't seem to agree with them at all!

Even if Liu Qilin did not say who he was here to challenge, anyone with a common sense would understand that he was here to challenge Xu Wanqing!

Purpose?

Don’t you just want to marry Xu Wanqing?

The Liu family of Hangzhou, a mere family that is so impoverished and almost forgotten by the ancient martial arts world, is also eyeing the apple of their eye?

It's really like a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, isn't it just wishful thinking?

In the past, if someone came to challenge the Xu family, as long as they were of similar age, the Xu family would definitely not refuse!

But now it’s different!

The Huashan Forum had just ended. Xu Wanqing, who was hailed as the strongest of the young generation, fell behind and failed to become a master.

On the contrary, many geniuses from other families were promoted!

But everyone knows that it is only a matter of time before Xu Wanqing is promoted to a Grandmaster. As such, naturally everyone wants to quickly take advantage of this huge bargain of the Xu family!

It is no secret that Xu Wanqing has not reached the Grandmaster level.

So in recent days, the Xu family has received quite a few challenges, but they were all rejected by Mr. Xu.

It's the first time that someone as rude as Liu Qilin comes to challenge me directly...

Not surprisingly, the Xu family also regarded Liu Qilin as someone who was looking to take advantage of them.

but……

How can we let him have his wish?

Xu Jiansheng's face couldn't help but darken a little, and he just laughed dryly twice.

Then he said, "So it's you, little friend Liu. You really live up to your name. When we last met at Huashan, I saw that you were extraordinary. When I see you today... you are indeed extraordinary!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jiansheng turned his gaze to his eldest son Xu Changlin and shouted, "Changlin! Get ready to welcome the guests!"

Liu Qilin: “?”
