After speaking, he caused nine plum blossoms to bloom as well. Nine streams of dense inner force blasted at the wall on the opposite street, directly penetrating it, causing nine deep holes to manifest.

Compared to the nine faint marks at the side, these nine holes were much more distinctive.

Those who knew their stuff could tell with a single glance that Xia Qingchen’s proficiency in this move was much higher than Xia Qilin.

Not only was Xia Qilin stunned, but Xia Xun also.

Now if they say Xia Qingchen was the one who secretly learned this from Xia Qilin, who would believe it?

It looked more likely that Xia Qilin was the one who secretly learned this from Xia Qingchen. Most probably, the majority of people would believe this.

“And? Cousin, what do you want to say exactly?” Xia Qingchen retracted his finger and a look of puzzlement flashed across his face.

What else could he still say?

Xia Qilin couldn’t explain this even if he had a hundred mouths. This martial skill was clearly bought by the Northern Xia Manor, so how did Xia Qingchen learn it?

Also, Xia Qingchen was several times better than him!

A breath of suppressed qi was stuck in his throat, causing his face to become flushed. He then asked, “I ask you, where did you learn this move from?”

“An old uncle sweeping the road.”

Xia Qilin was so angered that he was trembling. “Nonsense!”

Which old uncle could casually produce such a high-level attacking martial skill?

And that supposed old uncle was even willing to let others learn it?

“What nonsense do you mean? Even my dog knows this. If you don’t believe it, just take a look.” Xia Qingchen turned his gaze to Grudgy. “Display the martial skill you learn from the old uncle sweeping the road three days ago for my cousin to see.”

Grudgy stood on its two hind legs and extended its right paw. It glanced at Xia Qilin and smirked. “Look carefully. Your grandpa doggy will only display this one time.”

As it spoke, its inner force gathered on its paw and then blasted forward.

Nine streams of inner force instantly blasted into the same wall, creating holes that were three inches deep.

It was still one level stronger compared to the nine faint marks caused by Xia Qilin.

Right now, Xia Qilin and Xia Xun were completely stunned!

It was one thing that Xia Qingchen knew this, why would even a dog know this?

They didn’t have the time to ponder over how a dog could obtain a cultivation base of the fifth radiance-level at the minor constellation stage. They were too shocked by the Nine Plum Blossoms Bloomed it displayed.

“Which old uncle? Where is he?” Xia Xun angrily spoke.

He felt that he was cheated by the Shrine!

They actually sold him this martial skill for such a high price when even a sweeper old uncle was willing to teach it to others for free.

This bullying was simply too over the top!

Xia Yuan’s gaze was cold. “Second brother, what is with your tone? Did my clan owe you something? Why should we tell you?”

Xia Xun felt anger in his heart, but he didn’t dare to be too excessive.

Right now, Xia Qingchen was someone verbally named by the Vice Headmaster of the martial pavilion for nurturing. If he wanted to beat Xia Yuan up, he had to consider the Vice Headmaster first.

“Let’s leave.” Xia Xun felt incomparably depressed.

Ever since that birthday celebration, the Southern Xia Manor, which didn’t even have the qualifications to incline their heads when he trampled on them, repeatedly caused him some setbacks.

Xia Qilin glared at Xia Qingchen with intense reluctance. He then turned and prepared to leave.

“Cousin, please take care.” Xia Qingchen smiled as he sent them away with his gaze. “Also, cousin, you shouldn’t be disheartened. Although that move of yours cannot even be compared to that of my dog, it can be considered not too bad. In the future, remember to put in more effort and practice harder.”

Cannot even compare to a dog?

Xia Qilin’s face was so flushed that it looked like a fresh pig liver. He was extremely infuriated.

But he had no way to refute, because his skill was truly inferior to the dog reared by Xia Qingchen!

“Xia Qingchen, don’t be complacent! The martial pavilion isn’t such an easy place to stay in!” Xia Qilin warned.

He was in the martial pavilion, and he had many friends that could make things hard for Xia Qingchen at any given time.

Moreover, the fact that Xia Qingchen had offended Li Weifeng was enough to make his life there extremely difficult.

“I don’t need cousin to worry.” Xia Qingchen smiled.

Hmph!

Xia Qilin and Xia Xun came with such an aggressive aura, but their faces were all ashen when they returned.

“Qingchen, Qilin’s words might be a little too heavy, but you cannot let down your guard.” Xia Yuan’s gaze was filled with worry.

Xia Qingchen consoled him, “Father, please rest at ease. Your son will definitely return safely.”

After speaking, he and several servants went to the upper court of the martial pavilion.

The martial pavilion could be divided into the upper court, middle court, and lower court due to two differences.

Firstly, the martial tutors in the upper court were all famous teachers in Lone Cloud City. For example, they were people like Swordsman Pingyang whose fame resounded everywhere.

Secondly, the abundance of the essence qi of heaven and earth far surpassed the other two courts due to the advantage of its location.

On his journey here, Xia Qingchen was already pondering.

He joined the pavilion and what he needed wasn’t a teacher. He needed the advantage in terms of location.

By borrowing the abundance of essence qi in the upper court, he would be able to cultivate faster.

“Xia Qingchen, right? Today, you will join the D Class.” The member of the martial pavilion responsible for receiving Xia Qingchen had already arranged his lodgings for him. He then told him the other important matters. “You can go and register for the class now.”

The upper court was further divided into the A, B, C, and D classes.

The A class was reserved for the most outstanding students. It was followed by B and the last was D.

The D class was the lousiest. In it were those who depended on their connections to join the upper court.

For example, Li Yaozong. His cultivation base was extremely inferior, only at the fourth radiance-level of the minor constellation stage. But because his father was a martial tutor, he was able to join the D class of the upper court.

There were also members of some big clans that joined the D class.

In fact, given Xia Qingchen’s performance, it was actually sufficient for him to join the A class.

But because he got in by the repeat competition, he could only learn in the D class no matter how outstanding his performance was.

The D class was now cultivating in a training chamber.

The training chamber was constructed in the mountains, and vast amounts of essence qi were gathered here. It was 50% denser compared to the foot of the mountains.

Although the density couldn’t compare to the treasured area in the Shrine, it far surpassed the outside world.

“Good location!” Xia Qingchen found it to his taste just after a look. He decided to stay here long-term for cultivation.

“Martial tutor Qin. This is a new student, Xia Qingchen.” The one-in-charge called out to Qin Lin who was currently teaching.

Qin Lin was the same as Li Weifeng, both were advanced martial tutors.

In addition, he was also one of the favorite pupils of Master Pingyang and was very respected in the martial pavilion.

“Xia Qingchen?” Qin Lin’s gaze was like lightning, surveying Xia Qingchen.

Swordsman Pingyang was so angered by Xia Qingchen that he coughed up blood and fainted. And even now, he was still sick in bed. As a student of Swordsman Pingyang, how could Qin Lin not know of this?

“I am.”

“Mn. Go and run a hundred rounds at the foot of the mountain before coming back.” What Xia Qingchen didn’t expect was that this martial tutor’s first sentence was to punish him.

Truthfully speaking, Xia Qingchen didn’t need to care about any martial tutors or listen to their teachings although he came to the martial pavilion.

By taking the initiative to greet, it was already him giving the tutor an exceptional amount of face.

“I came here to study and not to be manipulated by people.” Xia Qingchen stood unmoving at his original location.

Qin Lin’s expression turned solemn. “Before studying, you should first understand how to respect your teacher. If you don’t even listen to your martial tutor, you still want to study?”

Xia Qingchen felt no fear. “A teacher that punishes a student for no rhyme or reason, is he worthy of respect?”

The students of D class didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

Qin Lin was famous for being extremely strict and mean in the martial pavilion. However, this new student actually dared to talk back to him. The newly arrived Xia Qingchen really didn’t know how deep the waters were.

“Stubborn! No wonder my teacher would be so angered by you, ending up in his state!” Qin Lin angrily berated.

Only now did Xia Qingchen finally understand why he would be targeted by Qin Lin for no reason.

The last trace of respect on his face faded away, contempt replaced it. “I wondered who you were. So it turned out that you are a student of that ignorant, incompetent old thing.”

If he knew of this man’s identity at the start, Xia Qingchen wouldn’t even have bothered with him.
