Professionals of the Starry Skies - Chapter 8

[Chapter 8 Funding (Seeking Collection)]

[Name: Fang Xing]

Age: 16

[Occupation: Warrior]

[First Realm: Skin and Flesh (Skin Refining: 33/100)]

【12 Military Boxing Styles: 75/100 (Beginner)】

[Big Dragon Posture: 80/100 (Entry Level)]

[Gate of the Heavens: 39/100 (Positioning)]

…

“My ‘Twelve Military Boxing Styles’ is still at the entry level…”

When Fang Xing focused his attention on the military boxing column, a magical scene happened.

The symbols representing the twelve styles of military boxing unfolded, and twelve more sub-sections appeared:
[Bow Step Cannon Fist: 1/100 (Proficient)]

[Half-step Collapse Fist: 77/100 (Beginner)]

[Blocking Horizontal Punch: 81/100 (Beginner)]

…

[Tomahawk Kick: 55/100 (Beginner)]

[Double Snake Legs: 67/100 (Entry Level)]

…

There are twelve sub-columns in total, corresponding one to one with the twelve forms of military boxing.

“Over the past few days, I have carefully selected a few moves and practiced them hard. As expected, there are remarkable results… Especially the Bow Step Cannon Fist. Has it surpassed the ‘beginner’ level and reached the ‘proficient’ level? Is this what Teacher Xia Long said: a cannon shot is worth a lot of money. Cannon Fist has achieved a small level of success?”

“But the other moves are still at the entry level, so the overall evaluation is still entry level?”

Fang Xing felt that he was gradually figuring out the rules of the attribute panel.

“Well, a single cannon shot is more powerful than gold. Fang Xing, your bow-step cannon punch would have been considered a real master in ancient times.”

At this moment, a tall figure walked into the classroom. It was Xia Long!
He looked around and finally landed on Fang Xing: “Fang Xing, come to my office with me!”

“Yes, teacher!”

Fang Xing’s heart moved, and he followed Xia to the office.

After opening the door, there was a huge space inside. On the mahogany desk, there was a set of celadon tea set.

A kettle was steaming on the small stove.

“Sit down, would you like some tea?”

Xia Long sat down with his arms and legs stretched out, and began to order tea with his hands as smoothly as flowing water.

When Fang Xing saw this scene, his eyes widened.

“Why? Do you feel it’s against the rules?”

Xia Long held the teacup in his hand and smiled when he saw this: “According to scientific research, if you want to master a trace of artistic conception, the most important thing is to follow your heart… To me, the process of brewing tea is an ancient ritual of cultivating the mind, which can make me calm.”

“Cultivate your mind…”

Fang Xing nodded, looking as if he didn’t quite understand but was deeply shocked.

“What is artistic conception? Artistic conception can be wind, rain, thunder and lightning, heaven and earth… it can also be flowers, birds, fish, insects, and all kinds of living things… In short, it is the power of the ‘heart’! However, this matter is very mysterious. All we can say is that everyone should go with the flow and find the method that suits them best… A true genius, even if he stands on the dragon pile until the end, can comprehend the ‘dragon artistic conception’.”

Xia Long waved his hand: “It’s too far for you to talk about these now, I just want you to have a goal… Fang Xing, I have been paying attention to you for a while, you are very good, you make progress every day… Today you even gave me a little surprise.”

“It’s all thanks to the teacher’s guidance.” Fang Xing smiled modestly.

“It’s also thanks to your hard work after class…” Xia Long felt that this might be a hard-working genius, but he didn’t need to say it out loud for fear that the other person would be too proud.

He nodded: “I called you here today just to give you something, take it.”

As he spoke, he opened the drawer, took out a box and handed it over.

Fang Xing took it and after opening it, he saw a row of test tubes neatly stacked inside the box.

Inside the test tube was a viscous azure-blue potion that seemed to have a few sparkling stardust in it.

“D3 level nutrient solution?”

A hint of excitement appeared on his face, but he was secretly shocked in his heart: “This box, at least tens of thousands, right? It’s worthy of being Teacher Xia Long. However, professional private tutoring is indeed very profitable. For him, it’s just a few hours of tutoring income after class…”

Recalling how long it took his previous life to save up the money, Fang Xing felt like crying: “Teacher… this is too expensive.”

“To me, it’s nothing.”

Xia Long shook his head: “As a teacher, I hope to teach some good students. The better your grades are, the higher my performance and bonus will be. This is a two-way benefit. You don’t have to worry about anything…”

“Well, thank you, teacher.”

Fang Xing bowed gratefully.

“Well, work hard… I hope to see you do well on your final exam.”

Xia Long smiled and said, “Compared to those natural students, you still need to work harder… Their resources and conditions, you know, the nutrient solution is just a small matter.”

“yes.”

Fang Xing walked out of the office and felt the box in his hand was a little heavy.

“Although this may not be a big deal to many people, it is a timely help to me…”

“I will repay you well if I have the chance in the future.”

…

Happy Home Community.

After returning home, Fang Xing suppressed his impatience, finished his meal, and took a rest before going to the practice room.

“‘D3-level nutrient solution’ is a high-tech concentrate of many alien nutrients. It has been prepared by the ‘omniscient brain’ and is confirmed to be most suitable for low-level warriors to practice. Take 20 ml orally at a time…”

He opened the box and first looked at the contraindications and precautions on the drug instructions.

Then, pick up a test tube and slowly open it.

The blue viscous liquid gave off a smell that was hard to tell whether it was pleasant or unpleasant, but very strange.

“Deep feelings, one gulp!”

Fang Xing took out the measuring cup, poured 20 ml, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Gurgle!
A cold feeling passed through my throat and went straight into my stomach.

The nutrient solution took effect quickly!
About five or six minutes later, Fang Xing felt a strong sense of fullness.

“What a mistake. I shouldn’t have eaten dinner. I could have saved a meal…”

A thought emerged in his mind, and then all his limbs seemed to be wrapped in a warm current, and his bones felt numb, as if he had received an advanced physical therapy and felt very comfortable.

“Open the liver!”

After confirming that the medicine had taken effect, Fang Xing immediately assumed the Dalong Zhuang posture and began to practice hard.

breathe……

Along with his long breaths, his back began to tremble slightly, like a big dragon, moving his dragon-claw-like limbs.

Fang Xing emptied his mind and gradually became immersed in cultivation, having long forgotten the passage of time in the outside world.

One hour, two hours, three hours…

“I……”

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and sat down on the ground.

He looked at the clock next to him and was shocked: “It’s 10:20 at night. I’ve been standing for… three hours? This…”

Fang Xing quickly checked and found that apart from feeling a little weak, his body seemed to be no different from his previous hour of exercise.

“Is this the effect of the D3-level nutrient solution? It can extend the training time without worrying about damaging the body?”

“To me, that’s a three-fold increase.”

His eyes lit up as he glanced at the attribute panel:
[Big Dragon Pile: 81/100 (Beginner)]

“Each time I exercise, I grow a little bit. If I continue at this rate…”

A smile appeared on Fang Xing’s face.

…

The next day.

Yucai High School.

Martial arts class.

“It’s different. Everything is different.”

Fang Xing started to fight, and felt as if he had undergone a complete transformation, especially when he was practicing the Bow Step Cannon Fist.

The circulation of Qi and blood, the coordination of the limbs… all have a wonderful sense of smoothness, as if a previously obscure machine had been re-oiled.

‘Silky, beautiful…’

‘Is this what it feels like to be at a skilled level?’

“What will happen if we wait until all twelve styles of our military boxing are broken through, and even the dragon stance is broken through?”

A hint of anticipation emerged in his heart.

“Alright, we’re done warming up. Let’s get on with the actual combat in today’s class!”

Xia Long strode over at this time, glanced at Fang Xing, a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face, but it disappeared in a flash, and then he shouted: “The grouping begins…”

“teacher!”

At this time, a tall white classmate raised his hand. It was Cole!

“What’s the matter?” Xia Long frowned.

“It’s like this. Learning from other students doesn’t work for me. I want to ask Fang Xing for advice!”

Cole stared at Fang Xing with undisguised hostility on his face.

Obviously, before this, he was the student that the teacher valued the most!
Obviously, his cannon punch was close to being a minor success!

How come he was suddenly surpassed by this unknown person in the class?
“He is still a teenager after all… too impulsive.”

Fang Xing had a blank expression on his face and waved his hand, telling Liu Wei not to worry.

“Do you want to designate a sparring partner?”

Xia Long touched his chin and laughed, “It seems quite interesting, Fang Xing, what do you think?”

“I will follow the teacher’s instructions!”

Fang Xing answered without comment.

“Then make way for the two of you, and let’s go first.”

Xia Long nodded and asked the students to make way for some space.

Seeing this scene, Liu Wei couldn’t help but look at Fang Xing worriedly.

“Ah Wei…”

Bai Lianyi came to Liu Wei and asked, “Are you worried about Fang Xing?”

“Yeah… Although Ah Xing has made rapid progress during this period, Cole… Cole… Sigh…”

Liu Wei stared at the field: “But Ah Xing has a lot of experience in taking beatings, so it shouldn’t be a big problem, right?”

Bai Lianyi looked at the scene, with a hint of curiosity in her clear eyes.

However, Ouyang Qianqian glanced at the two of them inconspicuously.

As a sensitive girl, she actually knew that Liu Wei had a crush on her but didn’t dare to tell her.

I didn’t expect that just a few days later, my dog ran away with someone else!

Although she didn’t like Liu Wei, she didn’t know why she was very angry!
Immediately…

She quickly turned her attention to Fang Xing.

The other party admitted defeat last time and there was no chance to surrender after that.

In fact, she also wanted to try her hand with Fang Xing again.

“start!”

Xia Long looked at the two of them and spoke directly.

“Boy, I want you to know…”

Cole had a grim smile on his face, and his body was like a nimble bear, pouncing at him in the blink of an eye.

Fang Xing felt the strong wind in front of him and calmly raised his right hand.

Crash…

The energy and blood in his body circulated like gunpowder, suddenly igniting!

Put five fingers together and fire them out like a cannonball!

Bow stance and cannon punch!

A single hit is priceless!

Boom!

Like a cannonball fired from a gun, there was a loud bang in the air, causing the nearby students to cover their ears and a look of pain appeared on their faces.

“ah?”

Liu Wei was shocked to see Cole flying back at a faster speed than when he came. He couldn’t help but look shocked…
