I'm not a supporting character in Pokemon

Duan Tianxing took Li Xiang back to the main hall.

At this time, the three boys had finished their stance and were resting on the edge.

Seeing Duan Tianxing coming over, he quickly stood up straight with a silent expression.

Is it really that terrible?

Li Xiang glanced at Duan Tianxing and felt that his intimidation was a bit strong, but not to such an exaggerated level.

Maybe there is a secret that he doesn't know about.

"Today, Li Xiang officially joins our Zhenxing Martial Arts Hall and becomes a new disciple. He is the youngest among you. As senior brothers, you must take good care of him."

Duan Tianxing stood with his hands behind his hands and his voice was deep and loud.

To be honest, Li Xiang hadn't figured out Duan Tianxing's age until now.

Forty years old? Fifty? Sixty years old?

It's possible.

"yes!"

The three of them responded loudly, raising their heads and puffing out their chests.

Duan Tianxing turned his head again and said to Li Xiang: "If you have any questions about the martial arts school in the future, just ask them and they will answer it for you. Of course, you can also ask me."

"OK."

Li Xiang nodded, feeling a gentle touch under his feet.

It's a fire-spotted cat.

Today is the first time that he has been separated from Li Xiang for nearly half an hour, and he misses him very much.

Duan Tianxing glanced at Huobanmiao and suddenly said: "Your elf is too dependent on you. This is a good thing, but it is also not a good thing."

Li Xiang was slightly startled, but then he remembered that he had never seen Duan Tianxing's elf, and Duan Tianxing himself didn't mention it.

Think about what Duan Tianxing said.

He said: "I understand, I will control this speed."

Everything depends on moderation. It is natural for Huobanmao to be close to him, which is a good thing that both of you want. However, if you rely too much on him, various problems will arise.

Li Xiang hopes that Huobanmao can stand alone. What he needs is a living person who has his own ideas and can weigh the pros and cons.

For example, the Swampfish can detect abnormalities in the environment and alert Ruby.

Instead of being a fighting machine that only accepts his orders and has no ideas of its own.

Being obedient is a good thing, but being too obedient is not.

Now that there are signs, a small sprout has just sprouted. Li thought that if he could deal with it in time, he might not be able to get a good result.

——How could it be said that the trainer’s first elf is very important.

The fire-spotted cat was confused and had no idea what the two of them were talking about.

…

Li Xiang put the fire-spotted cat outside the hall and encouraged it to make friends with the elves like Lu Chengfeng and others.

He still remembered the reason why he chose Fire Spot Cat in the first place.

Don't feed this guy to waste.

The fire-spotted cat hesitated for two seconds, looking at the "vicious" elves hesitantly, and finally decided to move closer.

It turns out.

The scaled dragons and the others would not do anything to the fire-spotted cats, and even because our trainers were learning martial arts together, they were quite kind to the fire-spotted cats.

Essentially.

Most of the elves in this world are innocent in nature and will not hurt others casually.

Secondly.

Humans are not the only ones who are afraid of Duan Tianxing.

Therefore, it didn't take long for the four elves to get to know each other well and start playing happily in the square.

the other side.

Li Xiang officially started to learn the basic martial arts of Zhenxing Hall - Bengquan.

Directed by Duan Tianxing personally.

After a simple warm-up activity to open up the muscles and bones.

"Without further ado, today I will teach you the most basic movement of Bengquan, which is the stance. No matter what the routine is, or how to resist the opponent, this posture is particularly important..."

He taught Li Xiang by words and deeds, and asked Li Xiang to follow suit. Whenever he made something wrong, he would remind him.

Or just go ahead and straighten things out for Li Xiang.

Yeah, that's a lot of strength.

Li Xiang felt like his bones were being straightened.

But through his thin gown, he could feel Duan Tianxing's exaggeratedly strong muscles.

Presumably this is the so-called tendon flesh all over the body. When you wear clothes to look thinner but take off clothes, you will have more flesh, right?

Li Xiang is envious of his real name.

How many boys don’t like abs?

It's just a lazy dog ​​that doesn't want to move.

Standing is simple.

It's also difficult.

The simplicity lies in the fact that the movements are not complicated, but the difficulty lies in the fact that it is very difficult to persist.

Duan Tianxing asked him to stay in this position for ten minutes. Regardless of any disturbance, even if someone tickled him, he was not allowed to move, including his mouth.

After saying that, he left.

What is this?

Don’t supervise and rely on others to realize themselves?

Li Xiang wondered whether Duan Tianxing was too high on a child's self-control ability.

There are very few children who can honestly do what he says, right?

Staying motionless in one position for ten minutes may not be something even an adult can handle.

Li Xiang cursed in his heart, but there was a popping sound in his ears.

He glanced out of the corner of his eye and could barely spot that his three cheap senior brothers were actually practicing with the equipment he didn't know what to do with yesterday.

Wing Chun wooden mannequin?

Li Xiang suddenly thought of this.

Yes, there are also leg targets, hand targets and sandbags for Sanda. How can you learn martial arts here without some equipment?

"call……"

He let out a long breath, and his body began to feel slightly sore.

After all, it is impossible for a body that has just started exercising to become fat in one go.

Calm your mind, calm your mind.

Li wanted to relax his body and prevent his muscles from being tense. Standing and holding the frame are both natural behaviors. If the posture is too stiff, he will get tired quickly.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Since it was summer, there was no air conditioning in the hall. Although there was a breeze blowing on his face, the wind was still hot and the scale was small. Within a short time, Li Xiang was already sweating profusely.

When the fire-spotted cat outside the door saw this scene, he came over curiously and looked up at Li Xiang. He meowed twice. When he saw no response, he scratched his trouser legs with his paws.

This stinky cat!

Li Xiang resisted the thought of saying anything to make him leave. His body tensed slightly and he didn't dare to move.

He didn't know how long it had been, maybe ten minutes had passed earlier, maybe not.

No one came to tell him to stop, and he couldn't see the watch on his hand from this angle.

There are no wall clocks around.

Seeing that Li Xiang ignored it, the fire-spotted cat felt bored and turned away to find the fierce fire monkey.

Fire-attributed elves can always get close to each other. After all, everyone likes summer. To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a common "language".

It's just a pity that they are not allowed to go to nearby venues.

Otherwise there would be more common languages.

…

Duan Tianxing is back.

Li Xiang, who suffered from back pain, was successfully relieved.

The latter held his waist and panted, wiping the sweat from his head with the back of his hand.

Standing was more tiring than he thought.

"If your physical fitness is not good, in addition to standing, you also need to carry out basic physical fitness training."

Duan Tianxing had a short leather whip in his hand at some point, and he placed it behind him.

Li Xiang saw it and his pupils shrank.

Come on, were you looking for a whip just now?

If he hadn't insisted on taking a break early, would he have been whipped immediately?

Come on!

There will be corporal punishment!

Li Xiang wailed in his heart. He thought Duan Tianxing really didn't care and just let him learn or not.

Unexpectedly, it was the old master who produced filial sons under the stick.

That's right, if Duan Tianxing's thoughts were so forward-thinking, he wouldn't have used that strange method to test his character before.

No wonder Lu Chengfeng and the others are so afraid of Duan Tianxing.

No wonder the martial arts hall is so deserted. If you can think more avant-garde, you won't fall into this cliché.

——Abusive education method, beating if you don’t learn.

Before, I asked first if I have perseverance, and then I asked what is the reason why I kowtow or not.

The first two levels have been passed, and this third level is coming one after another.

If he walked away right now, Duan Tianxing probably wouldn't say anything and would just watch him go away. After all, the old man never forced him from beginning to end, and even gave him the right to choose.

But after he has made his choice, it is Duan Tianxing's right to teach him.

It's never too late to say "no".

but……

How should Li Xiang explain to Li Zhehan and Yin Tao, who have huge expectations?

The master is so devilish and inhumane that I won’t learn anymore.

This is a good reason, and most parents can accept it.

Acceptable is acceptable, disappointment is definitely unavoidable.

From the tone of voice that Li Xiang heard on the previous phone call with his father, it was not difficult for him to tell how much Li Zhehan had high expectations for him to learn martial arts.

How eager is Ms. Yin's desire to let him learn life-saving techniques.

Li Xiang was reluctant to disappoint them.

Because they were disappointed too many times in their previous lives...

You should be proud of yourself more or less.

So, Li Xiang gritted his teeth and started basic physical fitness training under Duan Tianxing's guidance.

It's a pity that he still thinks highly of himself.

Duan Tianxing trained him almost as well as he trained high-level elves, it was very excessive.

Li Xiang even doubted whether this guy could teach his disciples. How could he train people to death on the first day?

But every time he couldn't hold on and fell down, Duan Tianxing would stand next to him and let him get up.

If you don't get up right away, and if you don't beep more often, you'll be whipped if you throw away your hand.

It's like driving cattle.

But every time Li Xiang thought he was beaten to pieces, he would turn around and see that the pain was so painful that he could shed tears, but his skin was still only red.

Not even a black patch.

What is this? Beat the meat but not the skin?

Li Xiang was speechless and could only grit his teeth and persist.

I bowed my head and paid the money. The pain was brought on by myself. Before, I was so heroic that I wanted to get my money back. But now I see that Li Xiang really had the idea of ​​​​escape.

But he also knew that if he escaped this time and enjoyed this moment, he would definitely regret it in the future.

Li Xiang hates taking regret medicine the most.

After practicing to this point, he also understood why Duan Tianxing used a whip.

Because practicing martial arts is so painful, if no one uses greater pain to force him behind, it is simply impossible for an eleven-year-old child to persist in practicing the whole process.

And this kind of physical pain doesn’t end just because you finish it today and don’t come back tomorrow.

It may stay with you for the rest of your life.

Talking about willpower and never giving up with a child who has an incomplete mind is not as direct and effective as a whip.

In the distance, Huobanmao saw Li Xiang being beaten and rushed over to kill Duan Tianxing with all his teeth and claws.

But after running a few steps, he was held down by the Fierce Fire Monkey and other elves.

They persuaded Huobanmao not to seek death.

But how could Fire Spot Cat listen?

In the end, Li Xiang, who was as tired as a stupid dog, had to order it not to come over, and it stopped.

For this reason, Li Xiang was whipped again by Duan Tianxing, telling him not to be distracted.

What a pitfall!

Li Xiang was about to cry but had no tears because he was all sweaty.

…

then.

Come down all morning.

Li Xiang pressed half of his body against the wall to hold himself up and prevent himself from falling. It felt as if he had been soaked in the rain, his clothes and skin were stuck together, and his eyes were burning.

Duan Tianxing said that if he dared to sit or lie on the ground, he would take the initiative to receive two whips.

Li thought there was nothing else he could do, so he had to hold on to the wall.

It is not advisable to break the jar.

I rested for about five minutes.

Duan Tianxing said: "Duan Yu, Lu Chengfeng, take him to the bathroom. Wang Dong, go to the warehouse to find a set of low-size clothes for him. I want a complete set."

"yes!"

Three people who trained independently agreed.

Duan Tianxing turned around and left, "I'll wait for you in the cafeteria."

Until he's gone.

Only Duan Yu and the other three dared to approach Li Xiang.

"Junior brother, how are you doing? Can you hold on?"

Lu Chengfeng squatted on the ground, looking up at Li Xiang who lowered his head, his face full of sympathy.

"If you can't hold it in any longer, just cry. It'll make you feel better."

"Just get used to it, everyone is here this way."

Wang Dong didn't care about the sweat on Li Xiang's body and patted him on the shoulder, "Master, he has a sharp mouth but a sharp heart. Remember, you must not confront him. If you dare to talk back, you will be dead."

Duan Yu didn't say a word, but directly lifted Li Xiang's arm to his shoulder.

Seeing this, Lu Chengfeng reached out for his other arm.

The two of them felt tired even talking, and Li Xiang, who looked like a corpse, lifted him up and walked towards the west.

Wang Dong went to the warehouse.

It was also involuntary, but this time it was not coercion.

"Thanks……"

Li Xiang thanked the two of them.

…

To the west of the martial arts hall is the shower room, which is also a bathhouse. It is full of the style of a large bathhouse in the 1980s and 1990s, with white square tiles and iron pipe faucets.

Fire-spotted cats hate water, even hot water.

So it and the Fire Monkey were waiting outside.

"It's a pity, junior brother, that the senior sister is not here, otherwise you can enjoy the personal service of the senior sister."

On the bathing table, Li Xiang lay down like a dead pig while Lu Chengfeng rubbed his back again.

Duan Yu stood on the other side, rubbing Li Xiang's hands and legs to relax his muscles.

"Teacher, senior sister?"

Li Xiang raised his head slightly.

Lu Chengfeng's face became inexplicably proud, "That's right! The most beautiful flower in our Zhenxing Pavilion! Senior Sister Baiji!"

"Where is senior sister?"

Li Xiang asked sideways.

Lu Chengfeng took the bath towel and rubbed it while saying, "Where else can I be? I'm going to school in another place."

"Trainer Academy?"

"No, Cultural University, Yu Da Law Department. Senior sister is twenty-three this year." Lu Chengfeng showed his big white teeth to Li Xiang.

The twenty-three-year-old senior sister...

Li Xiang turned to look at Duan Yu, and then asked: "How many apprentices does our master have?"

Duan Yu was rubbing Li Xiang's biceps. Hearing this, he said calmly: "Originally there were six, and you will add seven."

"Yes, I guess you are a closed disciple."

Lu Chengfeng nodded.

Li Xiang was puzzled, "A closed disciple? Why? He... the master didn't tell me, he was a closed disciple or something."

"You can tell it's a ghost!"

Wang Dong walked in from outside and pointed behind him with his thumb, "I've put your clothes outside for you."

Li Xiang thanked him loudly.

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "Junior brother, it's normal for you to be unfamiliar with Master's temper. He doesn't like to talk much. Unless it's something very, very important, he usually won't talk about it, or will talk about it very late."

"Then how do you know-"

"Master, he has a jade pendant, which is a large jade stone divided into seven pieces. Every time he accepts a disciple, when he finds a suitable opportunity, he will give out one piece. With you, the seventh piece is gone."

Duan Yu answered silently from the side.

Li Xiang was surprised, is there such an operation?

"Besides, the master is old. When we grow up, he will be able to retire."

Wang Dong took the initiative to pinch one of Li Xiang's legs.

Are these people so considerate?

Could it be that what happened yesterday was all a dream, or did he misunderstand and was it really just a visit?

Li wanted to be comfortably served by these three people, and he suspected that he was too tired and hallucinating.

So friendly, these three.

"How old is the master, and how old are the other brothers? How about you?"

He decided to ask something.

"Master is fifty-one this year. Second senior sister Qi Sunsun is twenty years old and studying at Yuda Breeding College."

Duan Yu was like a ruthless answering machine, "Third senior sister Jiang Changrou, eighteen years old, at Yuda Training Academy. Then there is me, fifteen years old, studying at Qingcheng No. 1 High School. I plan to be a doctor." "

He glanced at Li Xiang.

Three senior sisters?

And the quasi-god starts by going to a cultural school? Be a doctor?

Li Xiang didn't quite understand Duan Yu's thoughts, but this was a private matter that had nothing to do with him, and he had no right to intervene.

Lu Chengfeng said: "Next is me, your fifth senior brother, I am thirteen years old and studying at Qingcheng Basic Trainer Academy——"

"I'm the senior brother!" Wang Dong interrupted dissatisfiedly.

Lu Chengfeng waved his hand, "Hey, wait until I finish. Is this important? Your fifth senior brother and I want to go to the film and television academy. I want to be a martial arts star!"

Speaking of this, he kicked the air twice and made a whirring sound.

Wang Dong glanced at his mouth with a disdainful expression, and then said to Li Xiang with great interest: "Junior brother, I am the fifth senior brother. I am also thirteen years old this year, and I am in the same class as him."

He pointed at Lu Chengfeng.

"After I graduate, I want to... go to Yunzhou to make money and start a company!"

Is that why you chose migrant workers?

This is too...

Li Xiang was speechless. He realized that Duan Tianxing's disciples really had everything.

It's a pity that his old seventh setting is repeated.

He turned his head and saw that the three of them were looking directly at him, with a rather scary look.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Junior brother, it's your turn!"

The three of them said in unison.

have to.

Li Xiang closed his eyes and said: "I am eleven years old this year. I will go to the Basic Trainer Academy soon. I will be admitted to the Advanced Trainer Academy."

His tone was calm, but his heart was extremely firm.

If he lives his life again, he must live a wonderful and happy life!

But after hearing his words, the three people looked at each other in shock, as if they had learned some incredible information.

Duan Yu hesitated and said: "Junior brother, how about we think about it again?"

"Yeah yeah!"

The other two nodded.

Li Xiang was slightly stunned, "Consider? Is there anything to consider?"

Duan Yu turned his head, not daring to look at Li Xiang's expression, and said: "This, master's martial arts school needs you to inherit..."

Um?

Um? ? ?

"Wait a minute!" Li Xiang straightened his back, then fell back due to pain.

"What did you say?"

He asked, suppressing the tingling sensation in his body.

When Duan Yu saw this, he simply stopped covering up and said loudly:

"Junior brother, the six of us have clear goals, so this martial arts school needs you to inherit it. Zhenxing Martial Arts needs you to carry it forward! You deserve it!"

"That's right!"

"That's it!"

The other two little brats chatted.

? ? ?

Are these three people playing tricks on him?

Li Xiang frowned slightly. He was not naive enough to believe the lies of these three people. Three guys who didn't even dare to speak loudly in front of the master were talking about who would inherit the martial arts gym?

When Duan Tianxing is dead? The three senior sisters don't exist?

Where will it be their turn to make the decision?

Even if you take ten thousand steps back.

These three people are indeed true to their words and want him to inherit the martial arts school, but what does that have to do with Li Xiang.

In his previous life, if he had such an opportunity before him, he might be so happy that he would fly.

If such a large piece of land and such a large courtyard could be inherited, wouldn't it be a great development?

But now——

Sorry, the cuteness that breaks the shell is my favorite, and everything else falls by the wayside.

"I can't thank you enough for the kindness of the senior brothers. Let's talk about it."

Li Xiang replied in an extremely perfunctory manner.

But all three of them could see that he was clearly refusing.

"Junior brother, think again! This is a martial arts gym!"

Lu Chengfeng came forward to persuade him, gently squeezing Li Xiang's back, "Look, does this bath feel comfortable?"

What does inheriting a martial arts school have to do with taking a bath?

"Let's talk when we have time. Let's talk when we have time."

Li wanted to forcefully hold himself up, but he thought these people had suddenly discovered their conscience.

In a world dominated by magical creatures like elves, why don't you become a trainer and come back to inherit a martial arts school and shoulder the responsibility of making it prosperous?

Is he crazy or is the world crazy?

"Junior brother, don't leave in a hurry!"

Lu Chengfeng pushed Li Xiang back to the bathing table.

Li Xiang's vision went dark and he almost fainted from the pain.

Angry in his heart, he immediately glared at Lu Chengfeng and said, "Are you doing this again? My memory that was about to disappear is about to be restored!"

When Lu Chengfeng heard this, he immediately backed away with a smile, "It's just a joke, junior brother, don't be angry..."

Li Xiang slowly got up and said, "Okay, I'm very grateful to the three senior brothers for their help today. The skills of the senior brothers are all very good. I will definitely find an opportunity to thank you and say goodbye another day."

After that, he walked under the shower, washed the dirt off his body, wrapped a towel around his waist and walked out.

Only three people were left looking at each other, full of annoyance.

They were still too impatient. If they could just wait a little longer and wait until Li Xiang had a sense of belonging to the martial arts school, maybe it would be possible.

"well……"

The three of them sighed in unison.
