Chapter 10 Martial Arts Hall

"dong dong dong"

"Lin Changqiang? Lin Changqiang!"

The next morning, just after daybreak, Lin Changqiang woke up to the familiar knock on the door and sighed weakly.

"Oh, I don't even have to work, but you still won't let me sleep until I wake up naturally. What a sin."

As expected, Lin Dong came to ask him to go choose martial arts together, so Lin Changqiang naturally would not refuse.

Although the system could get Lin Dong's martial arts for free when there was an opportunity to get Lin Dong's favorability back to first place, Lin Changqiang really had no interest in the Qimen Seal.

In Lin Changqiang's previous life, he actually liked watching Naruto quite a bit, and he thought that the hand seal attack method in Naruto was extremely cool.

But even with the skill of performing two seals in one second that he had learned in his middle school years, he would be beaten to death by his opponent before he could even unleash the Qimen Seal.

As for why Lin Dong can successfully release it every time, it may be because his hand speed is relatively fast, or the opponent has better martial arts ethics.

The martial arts hall is located in the backyard of the Lin family. It is one of the most important places in the Lin family. Only with Lin Zhentian’s permission can one enter it.

When they arrived at the entrance of the martial arts hall, they saw several guards with solemn faces guarding the gate. They obviously recognized Lin Changqiang and Lin Dong, so after nodding politely at the two of them, they opened the door.

As soon as you enter the martial arts hall, a scent of books hits you in the face. There are rows of mahogany bookshelves crisscrossing each other, and the shelves are filled with various martial arts.

Just when Lin Dong's eyes were burning with anger and he was about to search around for a third-grade martial art, Lin Changqiang suddenly pulled him back and rolled his eyes at him.

"You are so stupid. I know without thinking that the good stuff must be hidden in the innermost part. Why are you looking for it at the door?"

Of course, this is actually because Lin Changqiang already knew that the third-grade martial arts were all in it, otherwise, he would not want to be slapped in the face again like yesterday.

The martial arts hall was unexpectedly large. Lin Changqiang and Lin Dong walked deeper into the hall for several minutes but still hadn't reached the end. The bookshelves on both sides also became much smaller. Finally, the two of them found ten third-grade martial arts books on a bookshelf in the corner.

"These are all the third-grade martial arts that our Lin family possesses."

Lin Dong leaned over curiously. Unlike the other bookshelves, next to the ten ancient books, there were separate wooden signs with detailed introductions about martial arts.

Lin Changqiang also carefully checked them one by one, trying to see if there was any that suited him.

"Third-rank martial arts, Wind-Returning Hands."

"Third-rank martial arts, Traceless Claw."

"Third-level martial arts, Starburst Airflow Finger"

……

After reading all the third-grade martial arts, Lin Changqiang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"Why isn't there anyone who can remotely release the wave?"

Although when playing games in his previous life, Lin Changqiang preferred characters who could both resist and fight, but in reality, compared to that kind of Hollywood-style duel, he actually still prefers the feeling of firepower coverage and cannons washing the ground.

And since the team already has Lin Dong, a warrior who can both fight and resist, and there will be the tank Xiao Yan and the magic assassin Xiao Diao in the later stage, it would be best for him to hide behind and act as a turret mage, or do some control.

"I've decided. I'll choose this fragment of the Qimen Seal!"

Lin Changqiang looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lin Dong staring at a light black book with burning eyes. Knowing that Lin Dong could use the ancestral stone to repair the remaining chapters, Lin Changqiang naturally would not stop him.

"Then I'll choose this Huifeng Mian Shou. Although the attack of this martial art is not very strong, it can still clear out the miscellaneous soldiers quite quickly."

In fact, Lin Changqiang originally preferred to choose Traceless Claw, because he felt that for himself who was protected by Holy Light, exchanging injuries for injuries was definitely not a loss.

But if you think about it carefully, it's the same as exchanging injuries for injuries, so for those who are protected by Holy Light, the longer the battle lasts, the better.

Therefore, compared to the martial arts that focused on offense, such as the Traceless Claw, he finally chose the Huifeng Mian Shou, which had slightly weaker attack but stronger defense.

After registering, both of them successfully brought out their martial arts. Lin Dong was about to rush back home, but was suddenly grabbed by Lin Changqiang's arm. "Lin Dong, have you heard of Chicken Soup for the Soul?"

"???"

……

The moonlight was dim, covering the earth with a layer of illusory silver gauze. At this moment, the exhausted Lin Changqiang was drowsily waiting for the system's prompt.

During the day, when he was at the entrance of the martial arts hall, he racked his brains for a long time, almost modifying all the famous quotes in his mind and using them.

“Dignity lies only on the edge of the sword. Truth lies only within the range of the bow and arrow.”

"Anyone who openly offends the Lin family will be punished no matter how far away they are."

"Who will decide the fate of the Xuantian Continent?"

……

He talked a lot, even the guards at the door of the martial arts hall were excited. He wanted to rush out and wipe out the Lei family, the Xie family and the Kuang Dao martial arts hall immediately, and become the master of Qingyang Town himself. Only then did he withstand Lin Dong's suspicious eyes and raise his favorability towards him to sixty-nine, barely tied with Lin Hong for first place.

"I'm afraid this kid is resistant to my chicken soup..."

Lin Changqiang slumped on the bed, not wanting to move at all. Fortunately, the system sounded in time and he did not fall asleep.

"Boom, guerrilla's effective target is detected. The host is practicing the fifth-grade martial arts - Qimen Seal. The host will continue to gain an additional 30% experience."

"Assisting in cultivation, Qimen Seal."

"Boom, auxiliary training is successful, congratulations to the host, you have gained 16% of the experience of Qimen Seal, and the current mastery level is 16% (ignore the decimal point)."

"Dong, congratulations to the host for achieving the following achievement: obtaining a medium-level martial art for the first time, and being awarded two chances to draw a lottery. You will definitely win a medium-level martial art in the next draw."

Lin Changqiang was immediately delighted. Although he had known for a long time that Lin Dong would master the Qimen Seal, he did not expect that there would be a reward for obtaining a medium-level martial art for the first time, and it was a guaranteed martial art. Wouldn't that be...

"System, if you first obtain superior martial arts, such as good fortune martial arts and spiritual martial arts, you will also achieve success. Will you definitely get martial arts?"

"Dong, back to the host, when you first master a certain level of martial arts, skills, and secret techniques, you will indeed be rewarded with a chance to draw a lottery, but only this time will you be rewarded with a guaranteed martial arts skill!"

"???" Lin Changqiang's black face showed a question mark, "Is there anything special this time?"

"Dong, return to the host, because during the day I detected that the host likes to form seals and release attacks."

I don't know if it's an illusion, it's still that cold female voice, but Lin Changqiang always feels that the system seems a little proud. It's just a pity that he, Lin Changqiang, likes to say no to the self-righteous system the most!
"So you used a backdoor to turn one of my lottery prizes into a martial art that can be released through hand seals? Then don't you have to compensate me?"

"???The system doesn't understand..."

"Otherwise why would I say you're stupid!"

Lin Changqiang's heart was burning with anger, but his face showed a look of disappointment.

"Think about it, the martial arts and spiritual treasures I win from the lottery must be greater than or equal to my own cultivation level, right? If I originally planned to stay in the Tianyuan Realm to draw again, wouldn't the martial arts have to be at least superior martial arts? Now that you have designated it as a mid-level martial art, won't the reward be worse?"

"It seems reasonable..."

"Right? So you have to compensate me~"

Lin Changqiang was secretly delighted. This system didn't seem very smart. Although in theory he could wait until the Tianyuan Realm to draw again, firstly, with his personality, he would probably not be able to keep the number of draws. Secondly, the draw was not a guaranteed martial arts~

"Dong, considering the loss caused to the host, I will compensate the host with one chance to draw a lottery."

"Ah~ It feels good." Lin Changqiang now feels as good as taking a bath. "System, use the chance of lottery once to draw my martial arts. Please don't draw any Thousand Years of Killing."

"Boom, a lucky draw opportunity was used successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the intermediate sixth-grade martial arts - Fire Dance Whirlwind."
