Chapitre 14: Chapter 11: Iron Wire Fist, Mingjin

Elder Brother Yunhu stepped forward, carefully examining Chen Yi's arms while complimenting:

"Isn't this miraculous! As the legend goes, large fish abundant in nutrients can be found deep in The Great Swamp. Some even weigh dozens to a hundred pounds, and eating half of one can greatly enhance one's vitality. Little brother, how incredible your luck must be to have found such an opportunity! Come, I will take you to report to the Master. Later, you must tell me in detail how you managed to catch this big fish."

Chen Yi scratched his nose, following Elder Brother Yunhu further inside.

As they passed by Wang Xiaohu and other young boys practicing the standing stake, Chen Yi awkwardly smiled and nodded at their stunned and disbelief-filled faces. "Ahem! I just got lucky, it's all down to luck."

When Chen Yi had departed, the boys immediately started discussing:

"What kind of luck does this fishmonger have? Just a month ago, he couldn't afford the fee at the martial arts school. Now, he spent a month fishing and not only has fish to sell but also found such a big one that he managed to refine his Vitality and Blood!

We've been diligently practicing all this time, drinking decoction, yet we have not even come close to understanding Vitality and Blood. This is utterly unfair!"

"Exactly, and now he even becomes an official disciple of the martial arts school. It's as if the heavens have closed their eyes."

"Hey, aren't you guys being foolish? Chen Yi becoming an official disciple means he won't be an Estate Guardian for Wang Family anymore. This means we have one less competitor!"

"Oh yeah, why didn't I think of that?!"

While the boys excitedly discussed, Wang Xiaohu coldly huffed:

"Do you guys gossip about him behind his back out of ignorance? He, Chen Yi, has become a martial artist. The Wang Family is not good enough to ask him to be an Estate Guardian, but I could invite him to be an Offering, in charge of managing all the Estate Guardians!

Those of you who want to become Estate Guardians should watch out. If you end up in his hands, I won't be saving you if you complain about him behind his back now."

Wang Xiaohu's words left everyone with a changed expression: Yes, Chen Yi may become an Offering for Wang Family. At that time, he would be their boss!

Suddenly, along with feelings of envy and bitterness, the boys started wondering if they should start bribing him in advance.

Meanwhile, Chen Yi didn't pay any mind to them. He followed Elder Brother Yunhu to meet Shi Zhenshan, the master of the martial arts school with graying temples.

"Master, this is Chen Yi. He came to learn the standing stake more than two months ago. Not so long ago, he got lucky and ate half a fish from The Great Swamp at home. Now he's entered into the realm of Vitality and Blood and wants to continue learning fist techniques."

Shi Zhenshan was over 50 and vibrant. There wasn't much visible muscle on his body.

Chen Yi hadn't paid much attention during his previous visit, but now he realized the master could very well be a master of the Transformation Realm!

As far as Chen Yi understood, the stages of Mingjin, Anjin, and Refining would all be visible on the skin and muscles.

Once you reach the stage of Huajin, the power of Vitality and Blood enters the tendons and bones. The entire strength of the body is hidden within the tendons and bones, remaining unnoticeable until it's unleashed like a lethally fast beast,

The defining characteristic of an entry-level Huajin is the ability to produce a sound that resonates from the tendons and bones. The powerful masters can even produce the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, with each punch or kick landing with the force of thousands of pounds. This far exceeds the outer appearance of muscular men.

Now that Chen Yi's Vitality and Blood were consolidated, he felt an even larger pressure from Shi Zhenshan and presented himself even more respectfully.

"I, disciple Chen Yi, have come to learn fist techniques!"

Chen Yi bowed and presented the silver coins.

Shi Zhenshan opened his eyes, examining Chen Yi for a while before shaking his head.

"Good lad, last time I underestimated you. The strength you possess couldn't have been cultivated by merely eating a fish. You are willing to endure hardships and put your mind to work.

Very well, since you have entered into the realm of Vitality and Blood, you meet the entry-level requirements to become an official disciple of the Iron Fist Sect.

I offer two choices."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi respectfully stood still.

"First, you can become my official disciple, without paying any tuition. You can receive five Soup Medicines each month. However, every day, besides practicing, you must perform tasks such as holding the fort at the gambling house or participating in hunts outside. You will automatically be promoted to be a true disciple when you achieve Mingjin Great Success and will be able to learn Anjin Technique."

Shi Zhenshan extended his stout and pitch-black index finger, staring directly at Chen Yi while speaking, observing his reaction.

Seeing Chen Yi remain composed, he introduced the second option:

"Second, you need to pay two silver coins as tuition each month and attend hour-long fist technique sessions each morning. You can purchase the Soup Medicine at one silver coin each, and the martial arts school will not ask anything else of you."

Shi Zhenshan didn't finish his speech, but his meaning was clear - don't even think about learning Anjin with the second method, because those who depend on money aren't considered their own people.

Hunting outside, watching the field? Isn't that going head to head with beasts, too dangerous, I can't go.

Chen Yi shook his head, "Master meant well, I appreciate it, but I need to take care of my mother and sister at home. It's already hard enough to come and practice my fist for two hours every day. I have to choose to pay silver to learn boxing."

Shi Zhenshan looked at him deeply, then waved his hand with a waning interest, "Alright, go."

After leaving, Elder Brother Yunhu complained to Chen Yi for a while: "You don't cherish the opportunity the master gives you. The master rarely gives the first choice when he just enters Vitality and Blood. He wants to promote you to be the core disciple of the martial arts school. Do you know how much hardship I went through and how much effort I made to get this step?

Not every disciple of the martial arts school has the opportunity to go out and practice. How can we become strong if we don't experience battles as martial artists?!

I tell you, the fastest way to improve martial arts is actual combat!

You, do you know that your choice made you lose the chance to become a great Anjin master!"

Elder Brother Yunhu was quite disappointed, Chen Yi didn't bother to explain much.

I can't waste all my time on the errands of the martial arts school, I need to improve my real strength in that other world!

As for the Anjin Technique, there will always be an opportunity.

...

"Iron Wire Fist, as the name implies, is about training the fist to be as solid as iron.

The practice is to gather Vitality and Blood in the forearms and fists according to the Eighteen Forms of Fist Techniques, until Vitality and Blood are refined into one. Then it's the Entrance of Mingjin, when the single-arm strength reaches over 300 kilograms, and the skin of the forearm is tough as cowhide, unbreakable by a knife.

Then afterward, as the fist strength and Vitality and Blood Power increase, the arms will reach the level of stone skin, and finally become iron skin. At that time,the fist is an Iron Fist. When the single fist strength reaches 700 kilograms or more, that means Mingjin Great Success, and you can try to understand Anjin...."

In the Martial Arts Field, others are practicing their fists with shouts and cheers,

On the side, Elder Brother Yunhu taught Chen Yi the eighteen moves of Iron Wire Fist and the accompanying breathing techniques, and explained to Chen Yi the practice of Mingjin.

"Elder Brother Yunhu, can our Iron Wire Fist only enhance the strength and flesh of the arms?"

"Of course not, the enhancement of Vitality and Blood increases the body's overall strength, but our Iron Wire Fist focuses on Fist Technique, the Mingjin being trained relies on fists to strike out, and the flesh being trained mainly focuses on forearms and fists.

You should know, a person's energy is limited. If you can train your fists well, you will be extraordinary in this world,

You're not thinking of training your whole body to be iron, are you? Firstly, our small town doesn't have that kind of martial method, and you don't have that kind of talent. Your family doesn't have the resources to purchase the Big Medicine for you to practice,

So be realistic. Once your Iron Fist gets to Great Success, you are a distinguished person in this town."

Elder Brother Yunhu patted Chen Yi's shoulder.

Chen Yi nodded his head, though he didn't agree. He had another Immortal Cultivation World, so he couldn't only train his fists, nor boast in this small town for a while,

Advanced martial methods, talents, and precious Big Medicines?

I'll find opportunities to study and research later, for now, continue practicing the Fist Technique.

The practice and play of the Iron Wire Fist are the same. It's nothing more than guiding and utilizing Vitality and Blood when striking a punch,

Soon, he learned these eighteen moves.

Chen Yi stood on the Martial Arts Field, like other disciples, shouting and striking with his fists,

Meanwhile, each time he threw a punch, he intentionally controlled the Vitality and Blood in his body to condense in his fists,

Just over two hours, he felt his forearms' muscles heat up, his skin turning red and itchy, while his body's Vitality and Blood rapidly diminished. His stomach started to growl in hunger.

This Fist Technique and the new Breathing Techniques really work!

Chen Yi's eyes sparkled, with this he could reach the peak of Mingjin even with his own practice.

At this time, other disciples put away their fists, and some of them lined up to Elder Brother Three in the corner to receive the Soup Medicine.

Chen Yi thought for a moment, then he followed.

Always relying on eating big fishes from the other world to replenish Vitality and Blood, I wonder how effective the decoction from this world is?
