A white beam of light slanted in from the wooden window and fell on the carpet. Fine dust could be faintly seen flying slowly in the air.
Jia Long stood respectfully in the center of the martial arts hall, with his teacher Fei Baiyun sitting in a high position, and his senior sister and two senior brothers on both sides.
The third senior brother stood on the right, holding a square wooden plate covered with red cloth.
There are two rows of seats on both sides of the martial arts hall. There are more than ten people sitting sparsely, each divided into two groups. They are all wearing white Taoist uniforms and have sharp eyes. The leaders are two people in their fifties and sixties.
old man.
"Since I personally selected you as a disciple, there is no need for extra complicated etiquette. Today I have invited Master Hurley and Master Host to bear witness. Let's get started."
Fei Baiyun nodded to his third senior brother Garcia.
"Start." Garcia shouted loudly. With his always playful and smiling personality, he did not dare to delay business at this time.
Two young girls in white Taoist uniforms came forward, each holding a plate containing a red greeting card and a reddish-brown wooden cup.
"Read the rules and regulations of the house." Garcia said loudly.
Garen straightened his body, picked up the red greeting card from the plate, slowly opened it, and read aloud.
"Don't underestimate your teacher; don't forget your righteousness! Don't show off; don't be rude! Don't do evil; don't be greedy for unjust windfalls! Don't be arrogant and complacent; don't practice boxing laxly."
"Disciple Longbar Garon must abide by the sect's rules! Pass on the martial arts of our sect!"
"Remember the rules of this sect, do you have anything else to say?" Fei Baiyun looked over with a smile.
After slamming the prayer card shut, Jia Long knelt down and kowtowed.
Boom, boom, boom!
After three ringings, he took the wooden cup on the plate and presented it to Fei Baiyun with both hands.
Fei Baiyun took the cup and took a sip of the black tea inside. Then he took a quill pen handed over by his second senior brother, signed his name on the greeting card, and reached out to the witnesses on both sides.
"Witnesses please sign!" Garcia shouted.
The two old men were smiling and signed their names on the red greeting cards.
The bald old man on the left cupped his hands and said: "I didn't expect that Master Fei, who is over sixty, can accept another disciple. Moreover, he has good qualifications and is more than calm. He is worthy of congratulations."
Fei Baiyun smiled with satisfaction. "I can't do it anymore. I'm getting old too. Jialong is the last disciple I decided to accept. I won't have the energy to accept another one in the future. My hope, the hope of Baiyun Sect, all lies in them."
Four of them are on me."
He has been investigating Gallon's situation in many ways these days, and has learned about it through various channels, including his family background, conduct, personality and temperament. The results he got are very satisfactory to him.
The most important thing is that even if Garen's qualifications are not a great weapon, he can definitely pass on the martial arts in the martial arts school normally. At least the secret skill of the giant elephant secret martial arts cannot be lost. Only the second child Farak still can't.
Insurance. After all, martial arts practitioners may die unexpectedly one day.
"Whatever Brother Fei said, you are already old, so aren't we all about the same age? I still want to live longer and teach more apprentices." The red-haired old man on the other side shook his head and smiled.
.
Fei Baiyun stood up. There were several black spiritual tablets on the mahogany table behind him, with writings in unknown characters on them.
"My Baiyun Sect has passed into my hands, and it is already the sixth generation. From this point forward, I will pay homage to the ancestors and masters of all generations."
Jia Long kowtowed respectfully to the tablet again.
Fei Baiyun looked at Jia Long, a respectful family man, and nodded.
"Although your parents are not here today, and the two elders are pressed for time, so they held the apprenticeship ceremony in advance in order to rush for time. But now that you have passed this hurdle, from today on, you will be my closed disciple Fei Baiyun, and you will be treated as such.
The honor and disgrace of the master is his own honor and disgrace."
"Yes! Teacher." Garen nodded heavily with a solemn expression.
"Okay, get up."
Garen slowly stood up, the ceremony was over at this point.
The martial arts performance hall is the hall on the second floor of the main hall. At this time, a large group of people have gathered at the stairway to watch, most of whom are formal disciples of the martial arts hall.
The students of Baiyun Martial Arts School are divided into three categories: ordinary, formal, and core.
Garen jumped two levels in a short period of time and directly became the core. This is also related to his age and talent.
Fei Baiyun's Baiyun Sect's recruitment of disciples is not as cumbersome as other martial arts schools. In fact, this has something to do with the actual status of Baiyun Martial Arts School.
Jia Long could tell from the sect rules just read out that Baiyun Sect was actually a kind of martial arts school that was both good and evil. The sect rules did not have any detailed regulations on the moral aspects of how to behave in the world.
In other words, as long as you don't betray the sect and don't do anything to disgrace the sect's reputation, it doesn't matter what you do.
After the apprenticeship was over, Fei Baiyun and the two masters of the hall sat together and chatted. The other disciples went downstairs one after another and went to the living room to sit down and rest and prepare to eat.
Garen followed the senior sister and two senior brothers behind, and happened to see a white tiger vaguely tattooed on the exposed back of the senior sister Rosita. The white tiger was ferocious and fierce, and as the skin moved, there was a faint aura of blood.
The white tiger tattoo extends from Losita's back to her chest, across her shoulders, and in the center of the tiger's back, a blood-red spine is clearly visible.
But when Garen looked carefully, he realized that it was not the tiger's spine that was red, but a bloody scar on the senior sister's shoulder. He just used this scar to deliberately tattoo the tiger, and made the scar into the backbone of a white tiger.
The second senior brother, Falak, was tall and was sitting down to have a lively chat with the disciple of Master Hurley. The man was also a strong and tough man. The two of them seemed to have the same aura, and they were old acquaintances.
On the other side, the senior sister Rosita was chatting with another disciple of Master Host. The other party seemed to be very interested in the senior sister and seemed to be very proactive.
Galen sat next to his third senior brother Garcia, listening to the casual chat between the two sides in boredom.
Both of them have tempers that can't sit still.
"Third Senior Brother, can we formal disciples only learn the second level of Baiyun Secret Technique and then no longer?" Garen asked in a low voice.
"That's true. The later secret techniques require some relatively precious medicinal materials and external conditions, which can only be supplied by core disciples. Why do you suddenly want to ask this? You only learned the first level of secret techniques. It's still too early to break through to the second level.
Wait, why are you so anxious?" Garcia asked doubtfully, "But I'm just bored, so you can be considered a formal apprentice, so I'll tell you what happens next."
"I'm just curious." Garen smiled. "After all, everyone who studies martial arts wants to know the specific direction of their own path."
"You sound mature when you say it." Garcia nodded, "The second level of the White Cloud Secret Technique can increase half of the strength. This is my personal experience. The third level can only be mastered by masters and senior brothers and sisters. I'm still far away.
, I heard them say that the third level can truly double your strength, that is to say, your original basic strength will be doubled on this basis. The senior sister has increased by about 100 pounds, and the second senior brother has increased by 150 pounds.
.This is the limit. The third level of Baiyun Secret Technique is also the highest level that anyone in our martial arts school has mastered. Only the founder of the Kai Sect has mastered the subsequent fourth level. It is said that when combined with the secret martial arts of the giant elephant, one can achieve the power of a giant elephant!"
"The power of a giant elephant! That's almost two thousand pounds!" Garen was surprised.
"No one has measured this specifically, but it's pretty strong anyway." Garcia touched his chin with a look of longing.
After chatting for a while, the main hall arranged for lunch, and the two hall owners left directly with their disciples. Some celebrities from Huaishan City came to congratulate him.
Some important figures, such as the mayor and the governor, sent congratulatory notes respectively.
Together with other guests who came to congratulate him, the area that was shocked by this apprenticeship actually involved the entire Huaishan Mountain.
After the reception, it was already afternoon before we knew it, and all the food we had eaten at noon was almost consumed.
After a hurried meal in the afternoon, Jia Long was called out by Fei Baiyun alone and brought to the door of a small, narrow and airtight room.
Sitting at the door was a bare-chested, bald old man. His muscles were tangled, his veins were coiled like black snakes, and his long white beard dragged down to his chest. He was sitting cross-legged on the ground, not knowing what to do.
Fei Baiyun stepped forward and whispered a few words to the old man in a respectful manner.
The bald old man nodded, opened his eyes and glanced at Garen, as if to recognize him completely, and then closed his eyes again and ignored him.
Fei Baiyun nodded, stepped forward and opened the door.
There was a creak, and nothing could be seen from the dark door. Fei Baiyun turned on the kerosene lamp on the wall, and the dim light suddenly illuminated the entire small room.
Rows of black bookshelves were revealed inside, with some small books sparsely placed on the bookshelves.
"Here are the notes recorded by my Baiyun Sect martial arts training throughout the ages. You can look through them at will. Don't worry about them now. When you have time later, come with me first."
Fei Baiyun stopped Gallon from flipping through the bookshelf, strode past the side of the bookshelf, and walked towards the innermost part.
"Uncle Bai is guarding this place. It is absolutely safe. He has memorized your aura. In the future, you can come in and out of here at will as long as you don't bring anyone else with you. This is one of the privileges of being a disciple of the master."
"Yes. Disciple knows."
Fei Baiyun nodded and walked to the last row. There was only something like a red teapot placed on the black bookshelf.
He carefully took off the teapot and poured it gently into the palm of his hand. A maroon pill rolled out of the spout.
Hand the pill to Gallon.
"Eat it!"
Garen took the pill, threw it into his mouth without hesitation, and swallowed it whole.
"Master, what is this?"
"Body Tempering Pill, your Baiyun Secret Technique has reached the second level, right?"
Fei Baiyun glanced at Galen with a half-smile, and the latter was shocked and didn't know how to answer.
"Don't worry, the first level of Baiyun Secret Technique is the best and easiest. In addition, I also used special medicinal aroma to build the foundation for you. It's not surprising to pass quickly. There are also many ancestors in the history of the sect who are very good.
Those who are about to reach the second level are all extremely talented. But when you reach the second level, if you want to sprint to the third level, you must use unique medicinal pills."
He put the black teapot back on the bookshelf.
"Remember this, you need to take one of the pills inside every day to slowly increase your secret skills. You can't make progress just by practicing hard. Of course, practicing hard is also essential."
"Yes." Gallon suppressed his surprise and answered quickly. He felt Fei Baiyun's eyes sweeping over him, like two searchlights, making it difficult to hide anything.
"Don't hide what you have, it's not a big deal if you get started with explosive boxing. I've seen many examples like yours. In the real circle, it can only be regarded as barely adequate."
Fei Baiyun freely told all his secrets in one breath. Looking at the embarrassed expression on this new disciple's face, he felt a little proud. If he hadn't discovered this disciple's secret, he wouldn't have been in such a hurry.
I just want to take him in.
As for the talk of a real circle, if there really were so many students who could easily practice explosive boxing, then the Baiyun Martial Arts School should have dominated the province long ago. There is no need to stay in a place like Huaishan. I'm just afraid.
He was so proud that he tried his best to suppress this statement.
This kind of talented disciple has only appeared once in the history of Baiyun Sect. They are all examples of those who are naturally suitable for Baiyun Sect's martial arts. They progress very quickly and have extraordinary talents.
Garen knew that he had been thoroughly seen through, so he said no more and just laughed twice.
