"We have conducted a detailed investigation. Zhao Qi and his sister Zhao Qin fled here not long ago. Their ancestral home is Suhai. Their specific family backgrounds are unknown. However, both of them can read and write. Their sister's appearance and temperament are not like those of ordinary civilian women. I am afraid that she was originally
Zhao Qi comes from a wealthy family. His performance among the registered disciples has been mediocre in the past six months. On the eve of the examination, it was said that he injured his body due to a lapse in practice. He did not expect to be able to hit four rings. Of course, there may be other hidden reasons, perhaps he is hiding it secretly.
Maybe it’s strength.”
"Do we need to use our connections to check with Su Hai?"
Li Zhongquan said.
"That's not necessary. The Phoenix Army in Su Haihang can't stretch its arms this far. In today's world, whoever escapes from difficulties has something behind him or her? Just make sure that there is no secret path on him.
Our Xiaolin Martial Arts School is not a place that cannot tolerate people."
Liu Changfeng said calmly.
"This is still certain. In the past six months, it can be seen from various aspects such as physical fitness and body shape that Zhao Qi does not have secret kung fu. This cannot be faked."
Li Zhongquan nodded and said.
"Okay, let's finish this matter here first. You can go and rest."
Liu Changfeng waved his hand and said.
Li Zhongquan nodded, turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly stopped and said, "By the way, senior brother, during the investigation, I discovered some strange things, but maybe I'm thinking too much."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
Liu Changfeng showed an interested look.
"According to my investigation, the reason why Zhao Qi entered the martial arts gym was because the siblings were targeted by a small leader of the Sanshui Gang. Zhao Qi fell ill before, and the small leader harassed him every day. However,
Not long ago, this little leader and ten of his men were all killed in a warehouse owned by the Sanshui Gang, and that day happened to be after the martial arts assessment ended five days ago."
"The Sanshui Gang investigated this matter, but their ability was limited and they couldn't find out the reason. Because all the money in the warehouse was taken away, they just thought it was a desperado who took advantage of the money and put the matter aside for the time being.
, but I do have an inexplicable feeling of strangeness."
"But maybe I'm overly worried. Although they are ordinary people who don't have secret knowledge, it's not like a sixteen-year-old boy can do such a thing."
Li Zhongquan said.
"By the way, how is the financial situation of Zhao Qi's family?"
Liu Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly remembered that Zhao Xuanqi asked him to buy more secret medicine today.
"The economic situation is not good, but I am not completely sure. If the family background is unusual, it is normal for them to carry some jewelry with them for emergencies when fleeing. Otherwise, they would not be able to survive the six months of studying in the martial arts school. I
After investigation, the income of the siblings is not high."
Li Zhongquan said.
"Is that so?"
Liu Changfeng nodded thoughtfully. If Li Zhongquan hadn't mentioned it, he would never have thought of investigating further. After all, everything seemed quite reasonable.
"Continue to investigate this matter through the channels of the martial arts school. We are not low-level people like the Sanshui Gang. Junior brother, please continue to be responsible. If you have any news, please tell me at any time."
Liu Changfeng's face returned to calmness.
"yes."
…
…
One month passed quickly, and the special introductory training for the outer disciples came to an end.
On the last day of the special training, no training items were arranged, but a final practical test was conducted.
A senior outer sect brother will serve as the examiner to test the actual combat abilities of Zhao Xuanqi and others.
This practical test, once the results of this month's special training are accepted, the test performance will directly affect the subsequent job assignments.
Those who serve as examiners are all senior outer disciples who have reached at least nine rings and have started to learn Zhuang Kung Fu. They are limited to ten moves. If they can survive ten moves, they are considered qualified. If they can survive less than ten moves, they are unqualified and need to accept punishment.
The secret medicine quota for next month will be reduced.
If you can survive one stick of incense, you will be rewarded with two secret medicines.
Bang! Bang!
At this time, two figures were entangled in the courtyard. Liu Changfeng watched with his hands tied, his expression untroubled.
In front of him was a stick of incense that was about to burn out.
The two people sparring, one of whom is over 1.8 meters tall, has a strong physique, punches vigorously, and has the absolute upper hand in the sparring.
The other person, who was much smaller in stature, retreated steadily under the attack of the tall outer door, hiding in various dangers many times, and many of his evading postures were not very elegant, but he never really lost.
It wasn't until the incense stick in front of Liu Changfeng burned out for a moment that the short disciple seemed to be unable to hold on. He couldn't dodge and was hit in the arm by a punch from the tall outer door. He fell to the ground and was defeated.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Sun, for showing mercy."
Zhao Xuanqi stood up, clasped his hands in his fists and saluted slightly towards the tall outer door.
After a month of special training and the baptism of twenty secret medicines, and being at a critical stage of growth and development, Zhao Qi's body has changed a lot.
Originally only a little over 1.6 meters tall, he is now close to 1.7 meters tall. His lean body has also obviously grown in length, with some muscle lines, and his physical fitness and strength have been greatly improved.
"This is your skill, no need to thank me."
The tall Senior Brother Sun had a look of helplessness on his face. This kid was as slippery as a loach, and he didn't dare to slack off at all. There was always a feeling that once he relaxed, he would probably be counterattacked by a desperate attack.
I, a senior outer sect, was actually outlasted by a newcomer. This battle was really humiliating.
"Zhao Qi actually survived a stick of incense. Except for him, the best among us could only survive half a stick of incense..."
"This Zhao Qi is really extraordinary. We all misjudged him before. Among our current disciples, except for Zhou Ze, who has not shown up for a month, I am afraid that no one's actual combat ability can compare with him."
"This man is hiding very deep. Fortunately, I didn't have any bad relations with him before. I will try to find ways to get closer to him in the future."
"..."
A dozen disciples at the same time were talking about it.
Within this month, Zhao Xuanqi gradually demonstrated some of his abilities. Whether it was posture, physical fitness or actual combat, he ranked among the best among more than a dozen disciples at the same time.
Of course, this was still a restrained performance on his part, so as not to appear too abrupt.
Hearing the discussion of other disciples, Xia Qing lowered her head and remained silent, because in the last sparring session not long ago, she was knocked unconscious before Zhao Xuanqi's hand even made five moves.
Ba Su, I haven’t regained my composure for a long time.
Moreover, she has not seen Zhou Ze for a month. During this period, Zhou Ze has been in a state of special training and seclusion by the master of the gym. He cannot leave the martial arts gym and cannot be distracted during this period. He has only asked someone to take care of her twice.
talk.
This made her unable to find someone to rely on if she wanted to be assertive, and she felt somewhat aggrieved. Under Zhao Qi's absolute strength and Liu Changfeng's daily gaze, she could only keep her thoughts in her heart.
"Okay, this month's special training is over. Come to the martial arts gym on time tomorrow morning. I will assign you a place based on your performance. Zhao Qi will stay, and the others can go back."
Liu Changfeng stood up and said to everyone.
"yes."
Everyone responded in unison, glanced at Zhao Qi with some envy, and quickly left the martial arts hall. Several outer disciples who were examiners also left one after another. Only Liu Changfeng and Zhao Xuanqi were left in the entire central courtyard.
Two people.
"I wonder why senior brother keeps me here?"
Zhao Xuanqi cupped his fists and bowed, and asked Liu Changfeng.
Liu Changfeng did not answer, with a calm expression. He reached into the pocket of his martial arts uniform, took out two short daggers, took them out of the cowhide sheaths, tossed them casually, and threw them towards Zhao Xuanqi.
Bang!
Two short daggers fell in front of Zhao Xuanqi, making a crisp sound of gold and iron.
