Next, the Four Seas Escort Agency underwent significant and rapid changes.
In just two days, the escort agency in Erhe County was emptied out, and the agency members moved into Sanjiang County as well.
Perhaps it was because they were willing to spend money, or perhaps it was because Sihai Escort Agency had become so famous, but in any case, the new location for the escort agency was successfully negotiated, and it was a courtyard that was several times larger than the one in Erhe County.
As for the renovation of the escort agency and the purchase of some equipment, Su Caiying did not have to pay for them.
A young man named Wang Yizhou, who claimed to be a new member of the escort agency, took charge of all of this.
Su Caiying naturally wouldn't refuse.
Renovating the interior and purchasing new furniture will cost just as much as renting the courtyard.
She was overjoyed to be able to save such a sum of money.
When Lin Ce and his group arrived at the new escort agency, Wang Yizhou was already waiting respectfully.
What's your current skill level?
Lin Ce glanced at the other person and spoke calmly.
This question naturally refers to the level of military strength.
"I am ashamed to say that although I am determined to work hard, I just can't seem to find the right method and I'm stuck at the threshold of entering the realm of mastery."
Entry-level martial artist?
Lin Ce looked at Wang Yizhou carefully and realized that the other party was not lying.
Back when I applied for the position of chief镖头 (chief镖头 is a term used to describe someone who is not yet a high-ranking镖师, but in this context, it refers to a martial artist who has not yet reached the required rank).
Wang Yizhou is so young, yet he has already reached this threshold; his talent is truly remarkable.
As expected of Sanjiang County, the level of martial artists here is significantly higher than that of Erhe County.
"Since you haven't reached the highest level yet, you'll start as a porter, just like everyone else."
Wang Yizhou was taken aback, but seeing Lin Ce's serious expression, he ultimately did not refute and nodded.
"Alright, I'll follow the chief镖头's instructions."
"Old Wang, is this all the good connections you've been talking about?"
"Let's hurry up and leave. You've spent so much money just to replace the porter? Have you lost your mind?"
Standing beside Wang Yizhou, the two teenagers who had come with him shook their heads and pulled him out by the arm.
"No, I want to stay."
Wang Yizhou broke free and took two steps forward, getting even closer to Lin Ce.
"are you serious?"
"Wake up! Although Master Yan's skills are inferior, at least he paid money to become a legitimate disciple. You're paying money to be a laborer?"
Wang Yizhou shook his head at his two companions.
"No need to say anything more. I know you mean well, but my mind is made up."
"you……"
"Okay, I hope you won't regret it later. Let's go. He's not thinking straight, and there's no need for us to waste our time with him."
Wang Yizhou watched the two boys' departing figures with a sense of melancholy.
"Lin Ce!"
Before he could calm down, a figure descended from the sky and landed in the arena.
"What, you want to challenge me again?"
The figure that fell was naturally Li Qingshan.
The old guards at the security company were already used to this kind of situation.
However, Li Qingshan's performance this time was noticeably different.
He shook his head.
"You can easily defeat a Xiantian-level expert, so if I challenge you now, wouldn't I be a complete idiot?"
"So that's how it is. You actually know how to assess the situation. It seems I've been misunderstanding you all along."
Lin Ce smiled and said, "Luckily, you don't plan to issue a challenge right now, otherwise I can't guarantee I would be able to stop myself."
Li Qingshan snorted:
"Just wait. The stronger you become, the more competent you will be as my whetstone. It won't be long before I catch up with... no, surpass you."
"Let's wait and see."
Lin Ce smiled.
"This is Wang Yizhou, the new escort. He sponsored the renovation and equipment setup of the escort agency."
After introducing Wang Yizhou to everyone present, he clapped his hands and looked at the group of teenagers.
"Alright, everyone worked hard on the last delivery. Now that we've moved to a new place, let's have a long-awaited big training session."
Wang Yizhou stood there dumbfounded, only to see a large group of teenagers set up their formations on the training ground and begin practicing their punches in unison.
"You should go too, Shaofeng, take him with you."
Lin Ce beckoned Shang Shaofeng over and asked him to bring Wang Yizhou over.
"This is?"
Wang Yizhou was quite surprised to see Shang Shaofeng perform a set of punches in front of him and patiently demonstrate them.
"This is a martial art passed down by the head镖师 (chief镖师), called 'Mountain Breaking Fist'. It is the signature martial art of our Sihai镖局 (Sihai Escort Agency), and all newcomers must learn it."
"'Mountain-Breaking Fist'?"
Wang Yizhou's expression shifted slightly. "I've heard of this martial art before. It seems to be an external martial art?"
I know you're worried, but there's no need to fret.
Shang Shaofeng smiled and said, "This boxing technique has been improved by the chief镖头 (chief镖头 is a person who is very skilled in martial arts), making it not only easier to learn but also allowing one to advance to higher levels of cultivation without any restrictions."
Seemingly afraid that Wang Yizhou wouldn't believe him, he added, "Before I joined the escort agency, my foundation was far inferior to yours. Now, a few months have passed, and haven't I already become a rank-8 martial artist, and even strive to advance to the eighth rank?"
"He became a rank-one martial artist in just a few months?"
Wang Yizhou's eyes widened in delight. "Master Shang, I want to learn boxing!"
But at the same time, he felt a little embarrassed and whispered:
"However, I am of slow aptitude. If I learn boxing too slowly, please forgive me, Master Shang."
"Haha, that's easy to say. But in all the time I've been with the escort agency, I've never seen anyone here who is truly slow-witted. Everyone's progress in training is quite encouraging."
This is indeed the truth, but Shang Shaofeng was naturally unaware of it. It was all because of the "united will" effect bestowed by the Lin Ce system.
In Wang Yizhou's view, his words were more like a joke.
It's probably just something I use to comfort myself.
The two then took turns teaching and learning, and began the transmission of "Breaking the Mountain Fist".
After only two repetitions, Wang Yizhou had completely mastered the boxing technique, only lacking the necessary refinement.
Shang Shaofeng clicked his tongue in amazement.
Aside from Li Qingshan, who never practiced boxing and whose knowledge was unknown, Wang Yizhou's speed in mastering the "Mountain-Breaking Fist" clearly surpassed that of anyone else in the escort agency.
“Brother Wang, you’re not being honest. You’re clearly more intelligent than any of us, yet you’re still so humble.”
"No, no, it's all thanks to the chief镖头's excellent improvements."
To be honest, Wang Yizhou was completely stunned.
At first, when he watched the teenagers practice this boxing technique together, he could sense that this boxing technique was quite effective.
To master it, you'll need to put in a lot of hard work.
Who would have thought that once he actually got his hands on it, he would have completely mastered it after only watching Shang Shaofeng demonstrate and explain it twice.
So, I'm actually a genius at boxing?
No, that's impossible.
I've practiced other styles of boxing before, but none of them had this amazing effect.
He was either inspired by the united spirit and fervent atmosphere of the teenagers present.
Either Chief Escort Lin improved this boxing technique to an astonishing degree, enabling someone as dull-witted as him to master it quickly.
Overjoyed and shocked, he couldn't help but join the other teenagers in practicing.
However, after a little over half an hour, he felt that the meridians in his body, which had been blocked for a long time, were suddenly opened up.
Strange forces were generated from his limbs and bones.
He couldn't hold back any longer, so he instinctively threw a punch at the wooden training post in front of him.
"Bang!"
A dull thud rang out, and the wooden stake in front of them shattered, sending wood chips flying everywhere.
"External force?!"
Wang Yizhou was greatly shocked, and then overjoyed.
"I've broken through to the ninth rank of External Strength, and from now on I'm a rank-entry martial artist..."
He was stuck on the threshold for who knows how long. In order to break through, he even knelt down to beg to enter Yan Zheng Martial Arts School, but was still rejected.
Now, less than an hour after officially entering the Four Seas Escort Agency, he has suddenly broken through?
Happiness came so suddenly that Wang Yizhou stood there dumbfounded for a moment.
"Brother Wang, congratulations!"
Shang Shaofeng laughed heartily, "I knew joining our escort agency would be the right decision."
