19: One-fold martial arts

"Class monitor, Su Yuan, don't forget us when you two become successful in the future."

"That's right, no matter what, we've been classmates studying together for over two years. Remember to help us out more in the future."

"When you get to No. 1 High School, remember to keep in touch. Don't disappear from the class group chat. Don't forget us brothers and sisters, boo hoo."

...Around them, students continuously swarmed towards Li Xingyu and Su Yuan.

Their exaggerated tones made Su Yuan and Li Xingyu break out in a cold sweat.

This wasn't a life-and-death separation, so why were everyone's eyes filled with tears?

"Alright, alright, don't be so dramatic."

"Su Yuan and I aren't not coming back. Even if we enter the two-school joint key class, we'll still have time off, right?"

"During our time off, I'll come back and share new Martial Dao insights with you all."

Li Xingyu stood up from his seat, patted his chest, and said boldly.

Behind him, Su Yuan also stood up and followed suit.

"The Cultivate methods for the two-school joint key class and our class should be different."

"I'll share some insights then too."

After Su Yuan finished speaking, the atmosphere in the class was noticeably more fervent than before. The credibility of his words was clearly higher than Li Xingyu's.

After all, Su Yuan was the fierce person who took down Zhuang Hanyin with one punch!

If it were Li Xingyu, he would probably only have been defeated.

Unconsciously, Su Yuan's status in the class surpassed that of Li Xingyu, the class monitor.

In the High Martial Era, strength was revered.

This was also not a problem.

After continuing to envision the future with their classmates for another half an hour, everyone left the classroom.

"Su Yuan, with you leaving, our contact will become much less in the future."

After leaving school, Su Yuan and Guo Peng walked on the road.

Without Su Yuan, his deskmate, Guo Peng was quite unaccustomed.

After all, he and the previous Su Yuan had been deskmates since the first year of high school.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal. Just say whatever you want to eat."

Su Yuan put his arm around Guo Peng's shoulder and said generously.

"Really? Then I want to eat..."

...After spending over two hundred xia country currency to treat Guo Peng to dinner, Su Yuan arrived at Star Rock Martial Arts Hall.

Teacher Zhang had already informed them in the group chat that Su Yuan and Li Xingyu didn't need to attend class in the afternoon.

"Sister Pu, are there any Martial Skill I can learn at our Martial Arts Hall?"

Arriving at the front desk, Su Yuan and Pu Shan had already become well acquainted, so he spoke directly.

"Martial Skill?"

Pu Shan's beautiful eyes swirled, then she said, "Our Martial Arts Hall has six free Martial Skill, their power is similar to your Thunder Sound Fist."

"More powerful Martial Skill require xia country currency to purchase."

"Generally, fifty thousand xia country currency can buy a Martial Skill used by a First Realm Martial Artist."

"That is, a First-tier Martial Skill."

Martial Skill like Thunder Sound Fist were all unranked Martial Skill.

"Fifty thousand xia country currency."

When Su Yuan heard this number, he felt that his remaining money wouldn't last long.

"However."

Pu Shan's words suddenly changed.

"Since you and the Young Hall Master are friends, if you need to buy Martial Skill, Star Rock Martial Arts Hall can give you a 90% discount."

"How much of a discount?"

Su Yuan almost thought he misheard.

What the hell was a 90% discount?

What was the difference between that and giving it away for free?

Star Rock Martial Arts Hall was clearly going to great lengths to give him better treatment.

Pu Shan had actually intended to say a 50% discount, but thinking of the Hall Master's instructions, she gritted her teeth and said 90% discount.

"Yes, it's a 90% discount."

"You didn't hear wrong."

"Any Martial Skill that Star Rock Martial Arts Hall possesses, First-tier Martial Skill get a 90% discount, Second-tier 80% discount, Third-tier 70% discount."

"Of course, Star Rock Martial Arts Hall doesn't have Fourth-tier Martial Skill, so we can't offer a discount for those."

Pu Shan said playfully.

To be honest, Pu Shan was very envious of Su Yuan.

This treatment was second only to the Young Hall Master Lin Jie in the entire Martial Arts Hall.

Su Yuan, a stranger, was being treated so well by Lin Zhenyan, a Third Realm Peak Martial Artist.

Pu Shan was somewhat confused by her Hall Master's actions.

"Come over here and see what Martial Skill you want."

Pu Shan opened her phone, and after some operations, logged into the Star Rock Martial Arts Hall's official website and clicked on the Martial Skill library.

"Choose for yourself. Star Rock Martial Arts Hall has a total of thirty-six First-tier Martial Skill."

Handing the phone to Su Yuan, Pu Shan sat at the front desk and watched him quietly.

"Okay, thank you, Sister Pu."

Su Yuan took the phone and carefully examined the Martial Skill in the Martial Skill library.

"Earth Gale Fist, Quenching Fire Leg, Crushing Mountain Palm, Jade Breaking Kick, Fixed Thunder Strike."

"Cloud Shadow Sword, Dark Rock Staff, Chasing Thunder Spear."

...Su Yuan opened each Martial Skill icon to view its description. Out of the thirty-six First-tier Martial Skill, only two suited him in the end.

Fixed Thunder Strike.

Chasing Thunder Spear.

Su Yuan's Breathing Technique was of the thunder attribute, so the Martial Skill he Cultivate naturally also had to lean towards the thunder attribute.

Fixed Thunder Strike: Cultivate to Minor Achievement, it could briefly paralyze an opponent for half a second; at Perfection, it could paralyze an opponent for a full second.

Victory and defeat are often decided in an instant; don't underestimate that half-second.

Even a slight mistake in combat could lead to defeat.

Chasing Thunder Spear: The spear strikes like thunder, as fast as lightning.

The Move emphasizes swiftness and speed, highlighting the word 'fast'.

If one possesses sufficient strength, and applies great force on the basis of speed, it will deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.

Greed can lead to overreaching.

Su Yuan only planned to purchase these two Martial Skill.

Any more, and he wouldn't be able to Cultivate them all.

"Sister Pu, I've made my choice."

Adding Fixed Thunder Strike and Chasing Thunder Spear to the Star Rock Martial Arts Hall's official website shopping cart, Su Yuan returned the phone to Pu Shan.

"Fixed Thunder Strike, Chasing Thunder Spear."

"Su Yuan, are you sure you've thought it through, only buying these two Martial Skill?"

Pu Shan glanced at Su Yuan in surprise, originally thinking he would choose several more with such a big discount.

"Hmm, two are already enough."

"After all, these are First-tier Martial Skill. I will continue to Cultivate when I step into the First Realm Martial Artist."

Su Yuan nodded and smiled.

"Okay, transfer one hundred thousand xia country currency to me, and I'll send you the Martial Skill files via the messaging app."

The messaging app was a social APP built by the number one powerhouse in Xia Country.

"Alright."

Su Yuan acted quickly, picked up his phone, and transferred one hundred thousand xia country currency to Pu Shan.

Thirty seconds later, Pu Shan sent two files, the Cultivate methods for the two Martial Skill.

"Thank you, Sister Pu. I'll go Cultivate now."

Su Yuan gave Pu Shan a slight smile, then thanked her and walked towards Training Room 205.

"Go ahead."

Pu Shan also responded with a smile.

In Training Room 205, after Su Yuan closed the door, he sat on a nearby bench and murmured.

"Should I Cultivate Fixed Thunder Strike or Chasing Thunder Spear first?"

Su Yuan glanced at the weapon rack next to him.

Swords, staffs, clubs, spears, halberds, more than ten types of weapons were neatly arranged.

"Cultivate Chasing Thunder Spear first!"

Making a decision instantly, Su Yuan walked to the weapon rack and picked up a long spear with his right hand.

The spear was 1.8 meters long, forged entirely from fine iron.

Su Yuan weighed it slightly, and it was about twenty catties.

"When I have the chance in the future, I must find a good spear."

Su Yuan gazed at the long spear in his hand. This was just a practice spear, and even a little too much force would cause the spear body to shatter.

Then, Su Yuan opened his phone, memorized the first part of the Chasing Thunder Spear Cultivate method, and began to Cultivate.

Holding the long spear, operating the Simple Thunder Breathing Technique in conjunction with the Move, Su Yuan slowly got the hang of it.

Each thrust of the spear produced a sharp whooshing sound.

Ten minutes later, a faint blue light suddenly emerged from the spear tip.

The panel information immediately displayed:

"[Martial Skill: Chasing Thunder Spear (1%)]"
