Return of the King, Dominating the City-Chapter 1368 - 1353: Teaching Martial Arts

The white-haired woman said, "However, this obsession, if it affects your will rather than pushing you further, then it is not good! Qingluan, I am willing to teach you on behalf of the Sect Leader, so I will tell you these things. If you want to enter the legend as soon as possible, you must let go of all attachments and devote yourself wholeheartedly. Only then can you have the possibility of entering the legend in a short time, otherwise, it is absolutely impossible!"

"Sigh!"

Qingluan sighed softly and stood up.

Looking at the rolling clouds on the horizon, she said, "Do I really need to do that?"

"This is the only way."

The white-haired woman said.

Qingluan nodded, lifted her hand, and looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist.

This was something Song Yun bought for her a long time ago. She has been wearing it for so long, never taking it off.

"Song Yun, I’m sorry, I can only temporarily leave you!"

Qingluan raised her other hand, taking off the jade bracelet. Perhaps because it had been worn for a long time or Qingluan had gained weight, it took her quite a while to take it off.

Afterwards, Qingluan put the bracelet into her pocket and turned to the white-haired woman behind her, saying, "Thank you!"

"It’s no trouble!"

The white-haired woman shook her head and said, "To personally mentor a legendary figure is also my honor. Come on, today I will take you to see what true martial arts cultivation is!"

As she said this, the white-haired woman leapt directly off the huge rock, and Qingluan followed suit, quickly disappearing among the mountains and stones.

Meanwhile, Song Yun was eating lunch alone in the cafeteria when Ye Yinyin came over and sat down beside him.

"Wait a minute, Uncle wants you to find him." Ye Yinyin said as she sat down, not waiting for Song Yun to speak.

"Teacher Shi Haoran?" Song Yun asked.

"Mm!"

"Why does he want me to find him?" Song Yun asked.

"To teach you things you can’t learn in class." Ye Yinyin said as she continued to focus on eating.

Song Yun’s eyes widened, asking, "Really?"

Ye Yinyin didn’t respond, continuing to focus on her meal.

Song Yun was used to Ye Yinyin ignoring him, so even though she didn’t answer, Song Yun continued to ask firmly, "What will he teach me? Nine Yang Divine Skill? Nine Yin Scripture? Bone Melting Palm? Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?"

Ye Yinyin rarely looked up at Song Yun, her gaze was calm but Song Yun felt a strong sense of disdain.

"Alright, even if it’s not those, are there some other powerful things?" Song Yun asked.

Ye Yinyin shook her head and said, "You’ll find out when you go."

Knowing he had to find Shi Haoran later, Song Yun ate quickly. After quickly finishing his meal, as he was leaving, Ye Yinyin suddenly said, "Come and find me after you’ve learned."

"Why should I find you?" Song Yun asked.

Ye Yinyin didn’t answer Song Yun, instead, she continued eating her food.

Meanwhile, in the old gymnasium.

"Master, are you really going to teach Song Yun?" Shi Wenxi asked.

"Mm!"

Shi Haoran nodded and said, "I’ve already promised that whoever brings glory to our Ancient Martial Arts research class, I will teach him things he can’t usually learn.

"But... but..." Shi Wenxi really disliked Song Yun, seeing his master about to teach him advanced Ancient Martial Arts, he couldn’t bear it. However, he truly couldn’t find a reason to persuade Shi Haoran not to teach Song Yun.

This made Shi Haoran quite conflicted.

"I understand what you’re thinking."

Shi Haoran said, "I promised, so I must fulfill it. But some things, it’s not like I can teach just because I say so, do you understand my meaning?"

"Master, you mean?" Shi Wenxi looked somewhat expectantly at Shi Haoran.

"I didn’t say anything, Wenxi, we’re part of the same family after all. If I don’t help you, who would? Right?" Shi Haoran said with a smile.

"I understand your meaning, Master. Then I’ll leave first, otherwise if he sees us together here, he might get suspicious." Shi Wenxi said.

"Mm, you can leave now."

Shi Haoran said.

Shi Wenxi nodded, got up, and left the old gymnasium.

And at the entrance of the old gymnasium, Rumeng was waiting there.

"Have I kept you waiting?" Shi Haoran asked with a smile.

"Just arrived, let’s go eat!" Rumeng said, extending her hand to link arms with Shi Wenxi. Shi Wenxi smiled, leaning closer to Rumeng.

Indeed, Rumeng’s body felt extraordinarily comforting.

Not long after Shi Wenxi left.

Song Yun walked into the gymnasium.

There weren’t many people inside the gymnasium, just Shi Haoran sitting cross-legged on the floor with his eyes closed in meditation.

Song Yun walked forward, choosing not to speak, just standing beside Shi Haoran.

A few minutes later.

Shi Haoran opened his eyes, looked at Song Yun, and said with a full smile, "Song Yun, you’re here!"

"Yes, Master."

Song Yun smiled and nodded.

"Today, I will teach you about grappling and combat techniques within Ancient Martial Arts. In Ancient Martial Arts, every school has detailed instruction on grappling and combat techniques, why? Because grappling and combat techniques can almost be considered as the foundation of all martial arts, very important. Also, I will teach you some techniques to increase your strength and utilize your power more effectively."

"Thank you, Master!" Song Yun cupped his hands in thanks.

"Learn with me... Come, first adjust your breath..."

Under Shi Haoran’s guidance, Song Yun learned quite a lot that afternoon.

He studied for about two hours before Shi Haoran stopped, telling Song Yun to practice on his own.

Song Yun tried applying the techniques Shi Haoran imparted and found that his exertion felt much easier than before. He didn’t understand why, after practicing, he felt a slight pain in his chest and his joints clicked. He asked Shi Haoran, who said that his body just hadn’t adjusted yet, and once it did, these issues would cease.

Song Yun believed him, and after bidding farewell to Shi Haoran, he left deep in thought.

In class, Song Yun ran into Ye Yinyin and suddenly remembered what she had said before, asking him to demonstrate what he learned.

Song Yun didn’t understand why Ye Yinyin wanted him to do this, but just performing once shouldn’t cause any trouble.

So, after class, Song Yun decisively took Ye Yinyin to a secluded place and demonstrated what he learned today to her.

After watching, Ye Yinyin fell silent for a long time before asking, "Are you sure this is what Uncle taught you? Only this?"

"Yes, what else?" Song Yun asked in confusion.

"Nothing." Ye Yinyin shook her head and fell silent again.
