novelShadowmoon Martial Arts Hall
| ← Ch.091 | Ch.093 → |
A few days went by.
Over the past few days, Xu Ning traveled across Chun Rin Canton.
Xu Ning's mind became much more relaxed after strolling around Chun Rin Canton.
Xu Ning walked on the street and passed by a martial arts hall.
Xu Ning was unfamiliar with martial arts halls.
When he was in Kangyun County, he had never seen a martial arts hall.
If someone wanted to practice martial arts, they must either be taught by their family or join a martial arts organization, otherwise they could only practice alone.
The martial arts hall in Chun Rin Canton was responsible for teaching martial arts, and one only needed to pay the appropriate amount of taels.
After staying at Chun Rin Canton for a few days, Xu Ning had seen several martial arts halls.
At that moment, Xu Ning walked past the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall.
Normally, Xu Ning would take a look from outside and leave, but today, Xu Ning stood still in place.
That was because a notice was posted at the entrance of the martial arts hall.
Although the writing on the notice was different from the writing in State Feiyun, Xu Ning could still recognize most of the words and understand the rough context.
'Recruiting a deputy hall master. '
Xu Ning read the notice.
The Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall posted a notice to recruit a deputy hall master.
The requirement was for the recruited person to have at least the strength of the mortal realm seventh stage.
The remuneration was also generous. The salary was at least 30 gold taels per month.
The price of goods in State Jifeng was not much different from that of State Feiyun. So, 30 gold taels was not a small amount for a martial artist in the state mind realm.
'A martial arts hall can make this much money?'
Xu Ning was curious.
If what the notice said was true, Xu Ning would be willing to be a deputy hall master.
Currently, he lacked access to resources.
Xu Ning strode into the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall.
As soon as he walked in, Xu Ning saw several warriors resting in the foyer.
In the front counter, there were people holding silver taels, preparing to sign up.
He heard the sounds of people practicing martial arts coming from the backyard of the martial arts hall.
"You also came to learn martial arts?"
Xu Ning was looking around and saw a young woman in a white outfit approaching him.
She had a round face and well-defined features. She didn't look particularly stunning at first glance.
But her figure was extremely tall. With a pair of straight long legs, she gave off a sense of vigorous beauty.
"If you want to learn martial arts, go to the front desk to sign up."
The woman in white said to Xu Ning.
Xu Ning shook his head."I'm not here to learn martial arts."
"I saw a notice at the door just now, stating that you want to recruit a deputy hall master, so I wish to apply."
Xu Ning said.
"You want to work as a deputy hall master?"
The woman in white was surprised. She looked at Xu Ning."You have read it clearly, but a deputy hall master must have at least the strength of a mortal realm seventh stage."
She obviously didn't believe in Xu Ning's strength.
There were plenty of state mind realm martial artists in Chun Rin Canton.
But it was rare for them to be as young as Xu Ning.
"Understood."
Xu Ning said, "Not long ago, I reached the state mind realm."
The woman in white looked at Xu Ning's calm demeanor. He didn't seem to be lying at all.
There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes. She stared at Xu Ning for a moment before she said, "Come, follow me to the backyard."
Xu Ning followed behind the woman in white. He walked through the foyer and into the backyard.
After he walked into the backyard, Xu Ning was surprised to see such a large field behind the martial arts hall. It was almost equivalent to one third the size of Tao Village's school field.
In a canton city, the value of land was extremely high.
On the field, the instructor and apprentices were all wearing clothes with the logo of the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall, and they were all currently practicing different types of martial arts.
Xu Ning glanced at them. Most of these apprentices were practicing external skills, only a few were practicing internal skills.
"Junior Sister, is this a new apprentice?"
As soon as Xu Ning walked to the backyard, he saw a tall, handsome young man approaching him.
The handsome man had a pleasant attitude towards the woman in white.
"No, he's here for the deputy hall master position."
The woman in white responded, her attitude was neither cold nor warm.
"Deputy hall master?"
The handsome man stared at Xu Ning.
"I'll go to find my father."
The woman in white did not continue to talk, instead she walked into a house in the backyard.
Soon, a capable-looking man with half-gray hair and a beard walked out of the house.
"So, this is the friend looking to be the deputy hall master?"
The capable-looking man stepped forward to observe Xu Ning.
"Hello sir."
Xu Ning responded.
"I am the owner of the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall, Han Huxiao."
The capable man said, "Shall we fight?"
Xu Ning knew that the other party had to test his own strength, so he nodded in agreement.
Xu Ning introduced himself."I'm Xu Ning."
"Spread out, make some room."
The woman in white began to clear the field.
The coaches and apprentices stood aside obediently, forming an empty circle.
Normally, the owner of the martial arts hall rarely displayed his strength, so everyone was full of expectations.
The woman in white and the handsome man also stood on both sides, waiting for the match between the two.
Han Huxiao and Xu Ning walked to the middle of the field.
"Eyes like a fire torch, possess an air that is calm and free..."
Han Huxiao had been observing Xu Ning. Before they even began fighting, he already had a rough idea of Xu Ning's strength.
This young man was definitely not faking his strength.
At the same time, Xu Ning was also observing Han Huxiao.
After being promoted to the state mind realm, Xu Ning's perception of danger had also risen to a whole new level.
Xu Ning sensed danger when he saw Han Huxiao.
Although this person was not tall and mighty, but just from him standing there, he gave Xu Ning a sense of oppression and power.
"Please."
Han Huxiao motioned Xu Ning to act first.
Xu Ning activated his hand blades and stepped forward.
Although Xu Ning did not have a knife in his hand, Xu Ning, who had already achieved the perfection realm in the Gale Knife Technique, was able to use his bare hands to deal damage equivalent to a knife technique in the intermediate realm.
'Knife technique external skill!'
Han Huxiao was so experienced that he could instantly see what skills Xu Ning possessed.
He faced Xu Ning's hand blade straight on.
Han Huxiao activated his iron fists against Xu Ning's hand blades.
'This force can't be faked. He's in the state mind realm!'
Just from the quick exchange, Han Huxiao confirmed Xu Ning's strength.
Xu Ning had also basically gauged Han Huxiao's strength.
This man's internal skill had reached the mortal realm eighth stage: intention realm. He was also in the perfection realm of a boxing technique.
'This young man is strong!'
After a series of exchanges, the two separated from each other.
Han Huxiao looked at Xu Ning, his eyes full of appreciation.
'Although he doesn't have a knife in his hand, even with his bare hands, he still exerts a power above the intermediate realm. This shows that this young man is in the perfection realm of a knife technique!'
'Intention realm really is quite powerful. '
Xu Ning was calculating the probability of him winning if he fought to the death against Han Huxiao.
If he had a knife in his hand and used his full potential, he might be able to escape and save his life.
But it was almost impossible for him to win in a head-on battle.
"Again!"
Although Han Huxiao had confirmed Xu Ning's strength, he still wanted to see Xu Ning's limits.
This time, Han Huxiao took the initiative to attack.
A pair of iron fists, like two hammers, carrying the strength of a thousand horses, slammed towards Xu Ning.
Xu Ning was suddenly pressured. He instantly activated his hardened skin.
At the same time, Xu Ning's internal energy surged and his palms burst with force.
'He has also mastered another external skill, and it seems to be a physical technique!'
Han Huxiao's eyes showed a look of surprise again.
Reaching the state mind realm at a young age was already impressive, not to mention reaching the perfection realm in two external skills.
'It's rare to see a talent like this!'
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The two exerted their full strengths as they exchanged blows.
The spectators in the circle felt a strong wind coming from the center of the field. Some martial artists who had just begun practicing martial arts, couldn't even keep their eyes open.
'He is so strong. '
The long-legged woman in white had beautiful eyes, and her eyes changed colors when she looked at Xu Ning.
The tall, handsome young man looked in disbelief.
"Okay!"
After dozens of rounds, the two moved apart.
Han Huxiao laughed loudly and said, "My friend, you're quite strong!"
"Master Han, you're much stronger. I'm no match for you."
Xu Ning was speaking the truth.
"My friend Xu Ning, let's go inside for a talk." Han Huxiao said, "Let's get to know each other. If there are no problems, you'll take on the position of deputy hall master, how does that sound?"
Although Xu Ning was qualified, they still wanted to know his details.
"Okay."
Xu Ning obviously didn't object.
