Lu Chenzhou revealed a relieved expression and expressed his gratitude:
[Don’t be too sad, and definitely don’t let Void Things scare you into losing your faith in Martial Arts! Du men could bear it, and I believe you’ll have no problem. Continue your Martial Arts training until you’re strong enough, and those lurking demons will start avoiding you!]
[I’m having Ru Yu drive to pick up your parents now, and I’ve asked her to bring her mom along too. You all might as well come and stay at my place—I have plenty of room.]
Ji Xuantong didn’t want the two inheritors to be hindered in their Martial Arts training because of family issues. His house was a large villa in Pingjiang Mansion, right next to the headquarters of Pingjiang Martial Arts University.
"Teacher, this is causing you trouble."
[My home has plenty of rooms, just lacks vibrancy ... In today’s society, the role of a True Inheritor Master isn’t like in the ancient times, a lot is taught by universities and the government, and we shouldn’t teach carelessly either. But once you’re part of my sect, you’re family. At least in your daily life, I’ll definitely take care of you guys so you can focus on your studies.] The most update n0vels are published on novel✶fire.net
The government established the True Inheritor system primarily to distribute the work of protecting Martial Arts seedlings and prodigies among Martial Artists. Teaching Martial Arts is secondary, as the era of Martial Arts schools mainly focuses on group classes.
Lu Chenzhou felt very complicated.
Ji Xuantong really was as important as a mountain to him.
He told his parents about this.
Lu Guoping was somewhat stunned.
"Huh? Move into Teacher Ji’s home? That’s quite sudden."
Lu Chenzhou shared his worries with them.
"Wouldn’t that be troubling for them?"
"We’ll just stay for a while, and later I’ll bring you guys to the university."
In the face of life-and-death matters, Lu Guoping set aside concerns about appearances.
"Then we should bother Teacher Ji. Should we pay him some rent?"
"I talked to the teacher, he doesn’t want it."
Pingjiang Mansion is considered Su City’s most top-level neighborhood, where prices are exorbitant, and it housed the wealthy and noble, mostly Martial Artists. Even Qin Zheng’s wealthy family didn’t qualify to buy a house there, so the master didn’t care about the rent.
"You guys pack up first, take the important things, and soon Ru Yu will drive to bring you over, stay there first, and move other things later."
His parents began looking for their documents; they never expected this day to come and were waiting for Dragon City Martial Arts University to be established, but now it was too late.
A car stopped at the entrance of the neighborhood.
Lu Chenzhou waited with his parents.
After Ru Yu got out of the car, she hooked onto Li Xianghua’s arm.
Lu Chenzhou sent his parents into the car, and Ru Yu rolled down the driver’s side window.
"You did well today, Brother. Be careful in the future. Uncle and Auntie, Master and I will take good care of you...just consider Master’s home as your own."
Lu Chenzhou waved goodbye:
"Sister, goodbye, be safe, and thank my master for me."
After saying goodbye, Ru Yu started the car.
She looked at Lu Chenzhou, and a thousand words reduced to one:
"Strive to become stronger."
"Same to you, Sister."
Lu Chenzhou watched the car drive away.
He heard from his master that his sister’s father also died due to a Virtual Disaster...
"There shouldn’t be anything virtual in the human world."
August 8, early morning.
Lu Chenzhou slept well, dreamless throughout the night.
Last night, the class teacher had found him.
Yu Zheng was slightly shocked from the police report about Lu Chenzhou’s encounter with a Void Thing and praised Lu Chenzhou’s practical ability when he heard that Lu Chenzhou had killed a Void Thing. Finally, Yu Zheng urged Lu Chenzhou to be bold and not be frightened by the encounter.
The first encounter with a Void Thing is the most terrifying.
It gets better with such experiences.
Because the mystical unknown of the Void Things is unveiled.
After getting up, Lu Chenzhou reflected on yesterday’s battle, it felt like a dream. Master, parents, sister...his family worried he might be traumatized by the incident with the Void Thing.
In reality, he felt nothing at all.
As a Fierce Tiger, how could a mere evil spirit frighten it?
He is the incarnation of fear itself; the ones that should be terrified are the Void Things!
"Off to Tiger Garden."
Lu Chenzhou felt a sense of clarity in his thoughts and went to see Brother Tiger again.
The Black Tiger inside the cage suddenly stood up, its perception of living beings’ Qi fields was very acute; the boldly approaching monkey, every movement emanated an invisible Evil Qi.
Brother Tiger’s slightly uneasy howl.
"It’s still good being you..."
Lu Chenzhou’s lips curled upward, and he began practicing his punches. His mind inadvertently flashed back to yesterday’s killing of the Void Thing, making his punches more fierce, each move ruthless and uncompromising. A familiar sensation came over him, and he looked towards the Martial Arts Tree, the leaves of "Tiger Supreme Fist" twinkling.
[Inspiration strikes, gaining twice the result with half the effort!]
"Indeed, I’m in the zone!"
Lu Chenzhou couldn’t help but roar.
Punches must be fierce, like hammering iron!
He punched a tree in front of him, the trunk trembling violently.
Claws must be fierce, like a tiger grabbing its prey!
Under Lu Chenzhou’s onslaught, leaves continuously fell from the tree, and rough tree bark surfaced with ferocious claw marks and cracks as if a massive three-hundred-kilogram tiger was attacking the tree.
[Tiger Supreme Fist: Mastery (2%) → Mastery (3%)]
[Tiger Supreme Fist: Mastery (4%) → Mastery (5%)]
Indications of increased proficiency kept flashing.
"Void Things, die for Brother Tiger!"
Lu Chenzhou got into the zone, treating the tree as a Void and repeatedly practiced "Tiger Supreme Fist." Two hours later, his body was sore, showing signs of being overworked.
Lu Chenzhou took a moment to regulate his breathing, then looked at the Martial Arts Tree.
The leaves had dimmed, and the state of inspiration had dissipated.
[Tiger Supreme Fist: Mastery (18%)]
