Martial Arts: I Have Diligence Reward System-Chapter 563 - 210: Dr. Yan Was Frightened_3
"Actually, your grandfather came here once decades ago, but unfortunately... he failed.
"Even as a descendant of the Gong Family, you only have one chance to comprehend it.
"The Mystic Bow’s Nine Styles consist of nine arrow techniques, and it’s only through fully understanding the first three arrows in one attempt that you can take the Chief Mystic Bow.
"Moreover, due to the master’s imprint before his death, the Chief Mystic Bow from then on will only belong to one person; others simply cannot draw it.
"People of the Gong Family, be careful, you only have one chance."
Fang Liyan explained further.
"My grandfather came here?"
Gong Ling was even more surprised.
"Yes, he came.
"After the master’s death, I informed the Divine Land Military Department about the matters here, but the Divine Land respected the master’s choice.
"A Ninth-Grade Grandmaster could forcibly take the Chief Mystic Bow, but it would be meaningless and damage the Mystic Bow, so it has stayed here all this time."
Fang Liyan nodded.
"I can’t.
"I’m just a Second-Grade Martial Artist, far too weak."
Gong Ling shook her head.
Perhaps in a few more years, but for now, she didn’t dare to take risks or waste her one opportunity.
If she also failed, then she’d have to wait for her own children.
Grandfather has several children, her cousins, none of them have the ambition for martial arts cultivation, they’re just idling their time in B Martial Arts.
Her uncles are all content doing business.
In the Gong Family’s generation, it really was only her who was dedicated to the art of archery.
Therefore, she was the granddaughter that her grandfather loved the most.
In reality, her great-grandfather’s idea was right.
At least, the Gong Family is peaceful now.
"Understanding is vastly different from real combat.
"If you truly have that insight, a Third-Grade would be enough. If a Third-Grade doesn’t understand, a Sixth-Grade would also have no hope."
Fang Liyan said.
"Unfortunately... I’m not even a Third-Grade."
Gong Ling smiled bitterly.
She thought of Su Yue and the others.
Su Yue is a prodigy, best not to mention him.
Yet, compared with Wang Lu Feng or Liao Ping, she was notably inferior.
She hadn’t yet washed her bone image, making her the weakest.
Perhaps, after another year of training, there might be a glimmer of hope.
"You’re now a Second-Grade, actually, in three days, you could break through to Third-Grade."
Fang Liyan suddenly said.
Upon hearing this, Gong Ling suddenly looked up, filled with disbelief.
She was still over 100 points of Qi Blood short of Third-Grade.
Three days, that was simply a joke.
"You should know about climbing grass.
"Your foundation is actually good, it’s not difficult to gain over 50 points of Qi Blood daily with climbing grass."
Fang Liyan said.
"No way.
"I can’t sacrifice the future for quick gains."
Gong Ling instinctively shook her head.
Although her cultivation speed was a bit slow, she was only 18 years old.
In a few decades, she could definitely breakthrough to Fifth-Grade; even without hope for a Grandmaster, she aimed to reach Fifth-Grade.
If grandfather passed away. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
The Gong Family couldn’t be without a strong figure.
In major armies, many may be Fifth-Grade Martial Artists, but in various cities, a Fifth-Grade Martial Artist is sufficient to ensure a family’s safety.
She definitely wouldn’t sacrifice her talent for rapid advancement.
"No, I won’t take climbing grass."
Gong Ling again firmly shook her head.
There’s plenty of time to comprehend the Mystic Bow’s Nine Styles.
If worst comes to worst, she could return next year.
She was never one to rush for quick success.
"Rest assured, my master has shown me kindness as deep as a mountain; he saved my life several times and secretly assisted Jiangyuan Country several times.
"Though I can’t claim to be a great benevolent person, I wouldn’t harm the descendants of the Gong Family. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to face my master after death."
"I’m the King of Jiangyuan’s uncle; I have the authority to procure the Bone Concealment Pill from the royal treasury.
"After taking climbing grass, then consuming the Bone Concealment Pill, you’ll be able to cleanse your bone image in the spiritual pool.
"In Jiangyuan Country, all royal members rely on the Bone Concealment Pill and spiritual pool to breakthrough to Grandmaster.
"If you’re still unsure, you could ask Fang Jingmiao, or inquire with tutors at the Warring States Military Academy.
"After cleansing in the spiritual pool, your bone image will be at a golden bone level. Jiangyuan’s past kings were all Ninth-Grade."
"Divine Land’s breakthrough methods are stable but Jiangyuan, as a small country, has its own survival methods."
Fang Liyan further explained.
He could see that Gong Ling was somewhat distrustful of him.
Which was understandable.
Today was their first meeting, and suddenly asking someone to self-destruct their foundation, no sane person would trust him.
But fortunately, he was the Prince of Jiangyuan, with some authority.
"Senior, why the rush?
"I can come back next year."
After contemplating for a while, Gong Ling actually believed Fang Liyan’s words.
She was merely a Second-Grade Martial Artist; he had no need to harm her.
Plus, she was backed by Divine Land’s Warring States Military Academy, so Jiangyuan wouldn’t dare harm her.
But she still couldn’t understand.
Fang Liyan was being too hasty.
"One year?
"Really sorry, I might... my injuries are too severe, coupled with my age, I won’t live past a year.
"My urgency comes from three considerations.
"First, selfishly, I want to see the Chief Mystic Bow lifted in my lifetime, even if... someone attempts it.
"Second, as long as I’m alive, this tomb is under my control. If I die, the mausoleum could suffer malicious intent; I don’t want the Mystic Bow to be tainted.
"Third, the threat of foreign tribes.
"I won’t hide it; foreign tribes have tried several times to take the Chief Mystic Bow. While I’m alive, Jiangyuan might protect the mausoleum for my sake, but once I’m gone, even without malicious people, this mausoleum might not endure many years."
