Time flies like water.

In the blink of an eye, three months passed quietly.

After entering Ba Yue Martial Arts School, Shen Zhi began to practice martial arts with his fellow disciples in the school.

I am always the first one to get up in the morning to practice standing meditation, and I dare not slack off for the slightest.

He knew very well that this opportunity was hard to come by, and he wished he could use one day as two and devote every moment to cultivation.

As a result, Shen Zhi spent most of his time every month in the martial arts school, and naturally the helping work in the medical clinic was neglected.

But Yan Xiu didn't mind.

After all, he had promised Shen Zhi before that he could come and help when he was free.

But judging from the current situation, there should be no free time.

...

"Are you the idiot who paid extra money to learn martial arts?"

Just as Shen Zhi was immersed in the practice of basic skills, a sarcastic voice suddenly came to his ears, making him turn his head to look.

He saw a young man in gorgeous brocade clothes walking towards him, surrounded by several disciples.

Shen Zhi slowly finished his exercise, exhaled a breath, looked at the other party with some confusion, and asked.

"Brother, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Shen Zhi didn't quite understand what the other person said, so he asked.

The young man in fancy clothes burst into laughter upon hearing this, his laughter was full of contempt and disdain.

"It seems that it is just as you said, he is an idiot who was sold out but still counted money for others!"

Instead of answering Shen Zhi's question, the young man in fancy clothes started to mock him.

At this time, the disciples surrounding the young man in gorgeous clothes began to explain.

"We heard that there is a peasant from the countryside in the martial arts hall, and he has to pay an extra two taels of silver every month to support others, so we came to see what he looks like."

After hearing this, even the slow-witted Shen Zhi roughly understood the reason.

However, he did not get angry. Instead, he bowed to everyone and tried his best to appear respectful and humble.

"I'm a newbie here, and I don't understand many of the rules of the martial arts school. I hope you can give me some pointers for the sake of our fellow disciples."

As soon as these words were spoken, someone else took over the conversation, his words full of contempt.

"Fellow disciple? Are you worthy enough?"

The man faced Shen Zhi, bowed to the young man in gorgeous clothes, and introduced him.

"Brother Qin is learning from the master's true teachings. How dare an anonymous disciple like you call yourself a fellow disciple of Brother Qin? Who do you think you are?"

Shen Zhi suddenly understood what was going on when he heard this.

It turned out that the young man in gorgeous clothes in front of him was one of the many true disciples of the owner of Ba Yue Martial Arts School.

It is said that the master of Ba Yue Martial Arts School has reached the peak of the Xiantian Realm.

It is precisely because of this outstanding cultivation that Ba Yue Martial Arts School has been able to stand firm in Yong'an City.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhi quickly put on a respectful expression.

"So it's Senior Qin. I'm sorry for not recognizing you. I hope you can forgive me."

If Shen Zhi had flattered him and called him "senior brother", the young man in fancy clothes would have definitely been unhappy, so he changed his address to "senior".

As expected, when the young man in gorgeous clothes heard the three words "Senior Qin", an expression of great satisfaction appeared on his face.

"You have quite a good eye, young master. I really appreciate that."

Senior Brother Qin laughed, walked up and patted Shen Zhi on the shoulder.

Shen Zhi nodded repeatedly, pretending to be frightened.

"I don't understand what you brothers just said. I hope you can give me some advice."

At this time, Shen Zhi turned the conversation back to what had just happened and asked in a low voice.

The disciple who had introduced the young man in fancy clothes earlier replied, "When you entered the martial arts school, did anyone tell you that you needed to pay two taels of rice money every month or something like that?"

Shen Zhi nodded upon hearing this.

"He is indeed a peasant. He is still laughing foolishly even after being cheated."

When everyone saw Shen Zhi nod, they all burst into laughter.

Things have come to this point, how could Shen Zhi still not understand the reason.

His face suddenly turned gloomy, as if water could drip out of it, and his heart was filled with anger and disappointment.

I originally thought that the other party would take care of me because we are from the same bloodline, but I didn't expect this result.

But Shen Zhi still had some doubts.

After asking the other party some questions indirectly, Shen Zhi was completely sure that he had been deceived by his cousin Shen Cong.

"This matter is also tacitly understood in the martial arts hall, but they only gave two or three coins at most, and you increased it tenfold, which really opened our eyes."

As they spoke, they laughed recklessly again, not taking Shen Zhi seriously at all.

"Thank you for your guidance, brothers."

Shen Zhi did not get furious as expected and then go find the culprit to settle the score.

The show was not as good as they had imagined, which made everyone feel bored and they dispersed.

Shen Zhi watched them leave, the smile on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a gloomy look.

Naturally, he would not go and cause trouble for Shen Cong just like that.

After all, the other party is now a warrior at the Bone Tempering Realm, while he is just at the entry-level level.

If a fight really broke out, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to withstand Shen Cong's three casual punches and two palms, and would die.

If I die by then, whether it is right or wrong will all depend on what Shen Cong says.

After I have achieved success in my cultivation, I will settle this account carefully.

Just when Shen Zhi was worried, a clear and pleasant call suddenly sounded from behind him.

"Azhi!"

Shen Zhi heard the voice and slowly turned around.

He saw a graceful figure, as light as a willow in the spring breeze, walking towards him happily.

She has a straight and delicate nose, a slim and well-proportioned figure, an exquisite face, and light rosy cheeks.

The girl is wearing a pink long dress, the hem of which sways gently with her steps, just like peach blossoms blooming in the spring breeze, full of vitality and vigor.

When she approached, a faint fragrance went straight into Shen Zhi's nostrils, refreshing his heart.

Shen Zhi's distressed look instantly disappeared when he saw the girl.

"Azhi, do you think my long dress is beautiful?"

The girl lifted the hem of her skirt and turned gracefully in front of Shen Zhi, her face filled with anticipation and joy.

Just as Shen Zhi was about to open his mouth to praise, he suddenly felt a hostile gaze coming towards him.

He turned his head slightly and his eyes fell on the figure behind the girl.

The figure was tall and burly, with a hint of displeasure on his face, as if he was very dissatisfied with the slightly close relationship between Shen Zhi and the girl.

Although the displeasure on his face was fleeting, deep in his eyes there was undisguised contempt and disdain.

"So lovely."

Shen Zhi had never even attended a private school, so how could he know how to praise others?

After holding it in for a long time, I could only utter these three words.

Despite this, Tang Ling didn't care.

Her eyes curved into a crescent moon and her face was filled with smiles, as if she was very happy with Shen Zhi's simple praise.

"Azhi, tonight is Uncle Yue's birthday party. He has accepted several outstanding apprentices, so he specially held a banquet at home to celebrate. You must come with us."

There was a gleam of anticipation in the girl's eyes as she extended an invitation to Shen Zhi.
