Worldly Boy lived in neither Sumen City nor Wuhe City, but both he and Baili Qingfeng were in the Xiahai State. And since Shire was the capital of the Xiahai State, they agreed to meet in there soon.
The deal went very well.
Baili Qingfeng picked up the herbs without a hitch and transferred the money in a bank.
Receiving fifty thousand dollars, Ran Tianchi, whose screen name was ‘Worldly Boy’, smiled. “Alright, you can come to me if you need those herbs again. And you can have as many of as you want as long as you don’t ask for them more frequently than once a month.”
Hearing that, Baili Qingfeng said, “In that case, I’ll place an order for the next month.”
“That’s good. Let’s seal the deal when the time comes.” Ran Tianchi observed Baili Qingfeng for a while. “Hengjiang, you seem to be in perfect health. I don’t think you need those body-building herbs normally… Are you preparing for the change of blood, or are you already in the middle of it?”
“I’m in the middle of it.” Baili Qingfeng nodded.
“An expert.” Ran Tianchi immediately beamed with interest. “Incredible. It often takes years for those guys who practice martial arts every day before they can exert power and another ten years of hard training before they reach level two to change the blood… You must have a great master, brother. My friends and I set up a club in Shire and we need a few capable experts to guide our training. Would you like to join us?”
“Give me a twenty percent discount on the herbs.”
“Twenty percent… Alright! But you need to prove that you are worthy. The club does not just belong to you. My brothers have to approve of you, too!”
“No problem!”
“Alright, I’ll show you the way.”
Ran Tianchi led Baili Qingfeng to his club.
The club was not in the city center, but it was still in a prosperous district. It had three floors and was rather spacious. Counting the laws outside, the whole property took up over three thousand square meters.
When Ran Tianchi arrived with Baili Qingfeng, two people were practicing in the training yard, and another two people, one male, and the other female were watching them.
Noticing Ran Tianchi’s arrival, the male waved at him. “Why are you here, Tianchi? Aren’t you supposed to be in Derui City?”
“I’m here to introduce a friend to you.”
Ran Tianchi said with a smile. “Let me introduce you. This is Baili Hengjiang. His real name is Baili Qingfeng. He’s a real expert.”
“Oh? An expert? How good?”
“He’s already refining the mind and changing the blood.”
“A level-two martial fighter?”
The male became more or less solemn after Ran Tianchi’s introduction. He looked at Baili Qingfeng. “A while back, we invited a level-two martial fighter to teach us, but he just had a nice appearance and did not really know anything. Mr. Baili Qingfeng, what are your specialties that deserve our generous payment?”
“Generous payment? How generous?”
Not only would he save ten thousand bucks on herbs every month, but he could also earn extra money?
“It depends on how capable you are.”
“Capabilities…”
Baili Qingfeng thought for a moment. “I have cultivated the 108 Moves of the Primordial Thunder God to train the body, the Thunderous Bane of the World for breathing, and the Supreme Ultimate Thunderous Lord Method for meditation. What would you like to learn?”
“The 108 Moves of the Primordial Thunder God to train the body, the Thunderous Bane of the World for breathing, and the Supreme Ultimate Thunderous Lord Method for meditation?”
Both Ran Tianchi and the man were astounded by the names.
Even the two young people who were practicing with each other also stopped. “Tianchi, Wang Yang, this is…”
“This is an expert brought by Tianchi,” The man named Wang Yang said.
“I’ve heard of none of those techniques before. I’ve read hundreds of techniques on Storm of Swords, but those techniques are not among them. They must be of a higher quality. Only the techniques that cannot be found on the market deserve such awesome names…” Ran Tianchi said as if he were a professional.
“They do sound impressive, but we have to see the actual performance.” Wang Yang thought for a moment but stayed calm.
“In that case, I’ll show it to you guys.” Baili Qingfeng narrowed his eyes and imagined the Primeval Thunder Beast. When he opened his eyes, the Primeval Thunder Beast seemed to lunge out of his mental world. Wang Yang, who had been sitting calmly, was shocked and petrified as if he had suffered a lightning strike.
“Dum! Dum! Dum!”
Ran Tianchi and the other two young men backed off continuously!
They were not Baili Qingfeng’s primary targets, but they still felt that Baili Qingfeng had turned into a beast at that moment and was going to tear them to shreds!
As for the young girl with Wang Yang, she even screamed in panic.
After deterring them with divinity revelation, Baili Qingfeng soon concealed his power.
The four people on the spot did not come out of their daze until a long time later.
Finally, one of the two young people woke up from the shock. “An expert! This is absolutely an expert!”
“Is… Is this fist vibe!? My uncle told me that the experts of spirit-refining could develop such a fist vibe that the enemy would be killed even before the fist hit the target… Every such person is a distinguished expert in his rank and may become a grandmaster…” Ran Tianchi said and looked at Baili Qingfeng differently.
“It’s just a minor trick and cannot be called a real fist vibe. If you practice my techniques, you will achieve the same,” Baili Qingfeng said.
“Are… Are you serious?” Wang Yang had also come out of his daze, but his face was paler than before.
“Of course. It took me three months to grasp such a method.”
“Three months!?” Ran Tianchi, Wang Yang and the rest of them were all shocked.
The method to intimidate and stun the opponent with one glance only took three months to learn?
“Mr. Baili, do you mean what you said?!”
“I have always been a man of integrity. Why would I lie to you? I guarantee that everything I said is true. In fact, I may have spent less than three months on the trick.” Baili Qingfeng said calmly.
He was confident about what he had done. Naturally, his manners were very convincing.
“I will practice it!”
“Me, too!”
“Master Baili, please teach us martial arts!” They said without hesitation.
“You can practice it. However, two of my techniques are from a top expert, someone who has slain quite a few war-level enemies on battlefields before…”
Baili Qingfeng suddenly paused. “Do you know what war-level means?”
“War… War-level…”
Ran Tianchi shivered half in excitement and half in fear. “War-level is also known as master-level. It refers to the great martial fighters between level four and level six. Every one of them is a big shot that can supervise a state…”
“I… I heard about it before, too. It’s said that every war-level big shot is an honorable guest of the royal family. Even the princes and princesses have to treat them courteously. They are as respected as the governor of a state…”
When Wang Yang thought the experts who left the two techniques had slain multiple war-level experts…
A god!
He had run into a reclusive god!
“Alright, let’s talk about tuition fees now.” Baili Qingfeng said, “I need not tell you how precious such tantalizing techniques are. I went through quite a lot of trouble to get them in the past. Therefore…”
“We understand!” Wang Yang immediately stood up and said respectfully, “Ten thousand. We would like to pay ten thousand every month for the techniques that can kill war-level experts.”
The other three people followed him. “Please admit us as your disciples, Master Baili.”
