My Martial Arts Level Never Drops

Chapter 131: Chapter 100: Shock

’I originally thought it was just because of his Talent, but now it seems...’

’He’s also working hard enough.’

’...Alright, so he’s not leaving any room for the rest of us, huh?’

’To have such great Talent, and still work so hard?’

A sense of urgency suddenly welled up in Zhou Xing’s heart...

’...Could it be that in a little while, I really won’t be able to beat my own junior brother?!’

’That would be so embarrassing!’

At this thought, all sleepiness vanished in an instant!

Zhou Xing decided to stretch his limbs, then went outside and began his own Standing Pile practice.

Hearing the movement beside him, Qin Fang turned his head to look and greeted him, ”Senior Brother?”

”Mm, ahem, I didn’t expect you to be so diligent... Very good. Focus on your Standing Pile. I’m going to start my practice as well.”

Zhou Xing nodded, putting on the air of a senior brother.

Qin Fang didn’t suspect a thing. He nodded and continued his Standing Pile with his whole body and mind...

To increase his proficiency, complete immersion was necessary.

After all this time, Qin Fang had already mastered the special Skill of maintaining complete focus during his Cultivation.

Under these conditions, his progress was incredibly fast.

Time passed, bit by bit.

The two martial brothers maintained the same posture, practicing Standing Pile in the courtyard, the Skin Membrane Drum Sound and Muscle-Bone Thunder Sound resonating...

An hour later, Qin Fang let out a long breath, completing his first Standing Pile session of the day.

Zhou Xing held his stance for a while longer before relaxing.

The two washed up, and Zhou Xing asked, ”Are you going to see Master today?”

Qin Fang naturally nodded. ”I haven’t seen Master in nearly half a year. Of course I’m going to visit.”

Since he’d finally made a trip into town, he naturally had to visit his master and his wife.

”Alright. I’ll head to my post first, and I’ll go over later... Master likes the yellow beef from the Huang Family and the Qianqiu Drunk from the Ji Family.”

Zhou Xing said with a smile.

Qin Fang nodded, making a mental note of it.

Although True Martial County was still strictly investigating refugees, the search had been going on for several months, so things weren’t as tense as they were at the beginning.

Qin Fang had long since shed his refugee-like air, and with deliberate practice, his accent was now a perfect True Martial Accent.

Just wandering around the city during the day wouldn’t be a big problem.

But staying for a long time would be troublesome, as someone would eventually notice.

...The Baojia system’s policy of collective punishment was no joke.

His Identity was ultimately a problem.

Thinking of this, Qin Fang suddenly asked, ”By the way, Senior Brother, how does one get into the Martial Arts Records?”

He had wanted to ask this question for a long time but had forgotten several times when writing letters. Now was the perfect time to ask.

”Martial Arts Records?”

Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment, but his eyes quickly lit up as he began to think seriously.

...Of course, he knew all about the Martial Arts Records.

But he had never mentioned it before because... obtaining a place in the ’Martial Arts Records’ was incredibly difficult, and he simply didn’t believe Qin Fang could achieve it.

But now he had witnessed his junior brother’s terrifying Talent... ’Those Martial Arts Records... it seems there’s actually a real possibility he could obtain them!’

If he could be entered into the Martial Arts Records, his status as a refugee would be completely resolved.

Thinking of this, he said seriously, ”You can’t get into the Martial Arts Records in the county. You have to go to the Prefecture City.”

”The Prefecture City?” Qin Fang was puzzled.

”Every year, the Prefecture City holds a Martial Arts Examination. Those who pass can be entered into the Martial Arts Records.”

Zhou Xing said seriously, ”But the examination for the Martial Arts Records is extremely difficult. After all, with a place in the Records, you can travel freely throughout the Great Yu, so it’s incredibly precious... Basically, an ordinary Anjin Martial Artist has no chance of obtaining it.”

”Most of those who have a place in the Martial Arts Records... have a Huajin Cultivation.”

Qin Fang’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately thought of someone.

”That Master Chen from the True Martial Boxing Hall... is he really a Huajin?”

”You mean Chen Shanhe?” Zhou Xing paused, then nodded. ”That’s right. He is indeed one of the few people in our True Martial County to have been entered into the Martial Arts Records.”

”How many people in our True Martial County have been entered into the Martial Arts Records?” Hearing this, Qin Fang asked curiously.

Since those in the Martial Arts Records were all at the Huajin level... this was almost the same as asking how many Huajin Powerhouses there were in True Martial County.

”Locally, in True Martial County, a total of three people have been entered into the Martial Arts Records.”

As someone who worked for the Government Office, Zhou Xing was naturally crystal clear on this matter.

”One is Chen Shanhe... the master of the True Martial Boxing Hall.”

”The second is Long Chengjiang... the head of the Long Family.”

”And the last one...”

As he said this, a smile touched the corner of his mouth. ”Is your senior sister.”

Qin Fang was stunned for a moment, but then his eyes shot wide open.

”Senior Sister?!”

His senior sister. Of course he hadn’t forgotten her!

...They had even spent the New Year together last year!

That was also the first time he had visited his master’s home.

’Hello... Junior Brother.’

Those were the first words his senior sister ever said to him.

An image of his senior sister’s gentle and graceful appearance surfaced in his mind, and he subconsciously swallowed.

”Senior Sister... is a Huajin Powerhouse?”

Zhou Xing sighed. ”Your senior sister is probably not just an ordinary Huajin... She was entered into the Martial Arts Records three years ago. And that year, she was only eighteen. Her Talent... well, although it might be a little less than yours, it’s still quite terrifying.”

”Now, three years have passed... To be honest, I’m not sure how strong she is now... I can’t tell at all.”

Zhou Xing shook his head with a wry smile.

After a pause, he added with a laugh, ”Now you see why I told you not to worry about Master, right? Master’s status is extraordinary... and not just because of who he is. His daughter is the youngest Huajin Martial Artist in the history of True Martial County... So even with Huichun Hall destroyed, Master will definitely be safe and sound.”

”Don’t be fooled by Master’s appearance as a scruffy old man. Three years ago, when your senior sister had just been entered into the Martial Arts Records, our master’s doorstep was nearly worn through by visitors. Even the County Magistrate at the time came to offer his congratulations.”

”But the old man is too low-key. He turned away everyone who came to his door... Seeing this, others realized the old man disliked commotion and gradually stopped showing up unannounced... That’s why it’s not widely known.”

”As a result, only the prominent figures in the county know about it. Ordinary People have probably never even heard of it.”

Zhou Xing’s words left Qin Fang completely stunned...

Speaking of his senior sister, he seemed to have only met her once on New Year’s Day. On subsequent visits to his master’s wife, he never ran into her again.

But back then, he had only just met his master’s wife and was still a bit reserved. His senior sister was also beautiful, and he was afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings, so he didn’t dare ask too many questions.

Not long after, he was forced to leave True Martial... and didn’t have the chance to ask more.

So, all he knew was that he had a senior sister.

But as for her identity, or what she did...

He had no idea at all.

And now, his senior brother was telling him that his senior sister...

...was one of the three great Huajin in True Martial County?

And even the youngest Huajin in the history of True Martial County?

...How could he not be shocked by this?

”Then... where is Senior Sister now?”

Qin Fang asked subconsciously after being dazed for a long while.
