Asura Continent

Su Lang caught Lu Yang's fist. In that instant, Lu Yang felt as if the true energy within his fist had vanished, as if it had vanished into thin air. At the same time, he felt as if it had been sucked away by Su Lang in an instant.

In the next moment, Su Lang released his hand and shook his head. "My attack speed is too slow, and my reaction speed is also too slow. I'm only at the Profound Rank, so I can't guide you too much."

Without even thinking about it, Su Lang shook his head and said, "I'm more or less a bandit. If I were to teach you my martial arts, it would simply mislead my disciples. Besides, you won't be able to learn anything from me." He paused before continuing, "What do you think? You will study medicine here for three years, and after three years you will become an adult. At that time, I will send you to the academy to study. "

"The academy!" This was a place that Lu Yang would even dream of going to. Not only could the academy read books, it could also cultivate martial skills and military strategies.

It could be said that as long as one was a direct descendant of a big family, there was no one who didn't study in the academy. Lu Yang was just a bastard, so the chances of him entering the academy to study were close to zero. Even if the Lu family agreed to let him enter the academy, Lu Yang wouldn't be able to. The cost there was too high for ordinary people to bear.

All of this flashed through his mind. Lu Yang let out a bitter laugh and said, "Grandpa Su, you should know my identity. Even if you send me to the Academy, I don't have the money to study and train in martial arts …"

Su Lang waved his hand and said, "Since you know about the academy, you should know about the great academies in the Western Chu Nation!"

"I know. Rumor has it that there are two academies. One is Sky Dragon Academy and the other is Earth Tiger Academy, right?" Lu Yang had read many books in the Lu Manor, and one of them recorded the West Chu Nation's academy. At that time, he had looked forward to going to the academy to study, but after understanding the requirements to enter, he knew that he would never have another chance in his life.

Su Lang shook his head and said, "Wrong, the two academies you are talking about are aristocratic academies. One is a place to provide studies and martial arts for the royal family and geniuses, and the other is a place for the disciples of large clans to learn. Actually, in the Empire, other than these two academies, there is another academy. This academy was just established not long ago, and is located in a very remote area. Not many people know about it. "

Lu Yang did not mind how few academies there were in the empire. In his opinion, even if there were a thousand academies, he still could not afford to go there, "It's all the same to have two or three. I don't have the money to study martial arts."

"Haha!" This academy is different from the other two. " Su Lang Zhong was clearly very knowledgeable about this academy, so he explained in detail, "This academy is called the Mortal Life Academy, and it specifically provides places for the poor to study and learn martial arts. The academy only required one silver coin a year, and the cost of eating and drinking was not more than this. If there was no living expenses, as long as they were excellent in all aspects, the academy could also provide a portion of the subsidized funds. Of course, if you're not afraid of being overworked, you can also go to the academy to find work and earn some money for your living. "

Initially, Lu Yang didn't pay much attention to it, but as he listened, he realized that the academy was really great. It was simply a place prepared for the poor. He pricked up his ears and listened.

After Su Lengzhong finished speaking, Lu Yang was very satisfied with this place and said excitedly: "Grandpa Su, can I really go to this kind of place to learn body transformation?"

"This is not something I can promise you. It still depends on you." Su Lang said with a smile.

Lu Yang frowned, obviously not understanding the meaning of the words, and said: "Looking at myself? Can I go if I want to? " Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "I know. That place is remote and very far away. Rest assured! No matter how far away it is, I will still go. "

Su Lang glared at Lu Yang and snappily said, "Do you think that the people from the Mortal Life Academy are idiots? If you only use the distance to test a person, then as long as you have some perseverance, you can do it. Even if he didn't have the willpower, he would still go all out to learn. The Mortal Life Academy is a place to nurture talent. I hope that I can find outstanding talents amongst the poor children. Do you understand? "

This time, Lu Yang understood and said while stroking his chin: "Since it's to unearth outstanding talent, then it should depend on a person's aptitude, right?"

"Not bad, it really depends on a person's aptitude." Su Lang said in a deep voice, "Such a low tuition fee, but they said the Mortal Life Academy is doing a loss. If anyone can enter, then the number of third-rate Nine Sects will increase. Isn't that just a mess?" So, there is only one way to enter the academy, and that is to be outstanding, or else you will be eliminated. "

"Excellent?" Lu Yang looked at himself and said unconfidently, "Grandpa Su, do you think I'm outstanding?"

"If you are outstanding, there is no fool in this world." Su Lang said jokingly.

Lu Yang didn't notice the joke and said dejectedly, "I-am I really that bad?"

Su Lang Zhong walked in front of Lu Yang in a few steps, patted his shoulder and said, "Your talent was indeed average before, but after I cured the illness in your body, you have become much stronger than normal people. I know that you wish to head to the academy to cultivate body technique, so I'll tell you about the standards they have set for recruitment! "

Su Lang paused for a moment before continuing, "Any academy is divided into a liberal arts academy and a martial arts academy. The academies are places where people read books and train officials and advisors for the empire. The Martial Courtyard was a place to practice martial arts to train the marshal and generals. "Regardless of whether it is an official or the Martial Arts Academy's recruitment, they all depend on talent. Here, talent is based on one's ability to remember, logical thinking, and the Martial Arts Academy is based on one's meridians, bones, and reflexes."

Hearing that, Lu Yang's eyes lit up. "Grandpa Su, then I can go. My memory is very good."

Su Lang asked, "Do you want to enter the Academy or the Martial Arts Academy?"

"The Martial Arts Academy, of course?" Lu Yang answered without even thinking.

"Since you're in the Martial Arts Academy and you're not looking at your memory, so what if your memory is better?" Su Lang said, "Could it be that when you were leading your troops to war, you didn't win by force, but remembered the appearance of others and wore what sort of clothes?"

"This, could it be that I can't go to the Martial Arts Academy to cultivate my body technique once I enter?" Lu Yang asked unwillingly.

"Of course not, a person's talent is very important. Since you don't have the talent to learn martial arts, it would be a waste of time to go. It would be better to read more books!" Seeing Lu Yang's downcast expression, Su Lang changed the topic, "Alright, it's not like you have no chance at all. At the very least, you're at early Yellow Rank and with a little effort, you can enter the Mortal Life Academy."

Lu Yang's face lit up as he said excitedly, "Really? Is this for real?"

"Of course it's true. Do you think that Grandpa Su needs to lie to you?" Su Lang rubbed the beard on his chin and smiled indifferently, "You were able to reach early stage Yellow Rank in such a short amount of time, you're faster than I expected. In the future, you'll still have to continue soaking your body." "Also, the time you need to cultivate Body Arts will also increase. When you're almost done, I'll teach you some martial skills."

Lu Yang nodded his head vigorously and said, "Grandpa Su, I will definitely work hard to cultivate."

"Hm!" Go take a bath, cultivate some martial arts, and don't waste time here. " After Su Lang Zhong finished speaking, he went straight to the medicinal formula that wasn't far away.

"Ha!" Heh! "Haargh!"

Every morning, Lu Yang would come to the flat ground behind the thatched cottage to cultivate his body technique fist. After a few months of practice, he had long since cultivated this set of fist techniques to an extremely high level. Simply put, Lu Yang's one punch was enough to kill a calf.

Spring left and autumn came. Time passed by like a white horse. In the blink of an eye, three years had passed.

For Lu Yang, three years was more than enough time to pass these three years. Every day he busied himself with spending all his time in the medicine barrel, even when he was sleeping. In these three years, he had learned a lot of things. Su Lang had learned more than half of his medical skills, and his body technique cultivation had also gone from early stage Yellow Rank to late stage Yellow Rank.

Lu Yang's appearance had undergone a huge change. His originally short stature had grown quite a bit taller, becoming a seven feet tall man. Although his body looked neither thin nor fat, it was very well-proportioned. His body actually contained a huge amount of energy. This energy was the true power cultivated by the body technique master. True strength was above strength, and a wave of true strength was able to compete with the strength of a normal person's body.

The reason why the Heaven Stage powerhouses were strong was because they had too much true energy in their bodies. In simple terms, the higher their cultivation, the more true energy they had in their bodies. The strength contained in the body of a yellow level master could only produce up to ten strands. If one broke through to the Xuan level, they could cultivate up to one hundred strands of strength.

True strength could be superimposed together, and the more superimposed it was, the more terrifying the attack power contained within would be.

That morning, Lu Yang woke up early. Just as he was about to go cook, Su Lang appeared.

Su Lang stopped Lu Yang and said with a smile, "I won't be cooking today. Can I take you to the town for a good meal?"

With Lu Yang's memory, Su Lang was very stingy. In the past three years, he hadn't brought Lu Yang out to eat a single meal.

Even if he went to the town to practice medicine with Su Erzhong, he would still come back to eat. No matter how late he returned, he had never gone to a restaurant once.

Today, the sun had risen from the west, and it had even burned out his brain, yet he took the initiative to take him out to eat?

Lu Yang looked at Su Lang Zhong in shock and asked curiously, "Grandpa Su, aren't we having dinner at home? Why are you going out to eat? "

Su Lang smiled and did not answer, "Don't ask so much, you'll know once you go there, right?"

Lu Yang rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "No, if you don't tell me the reason, then I won't go even if you beat me to death."

"If you don't go, then I'll go alone." Su Lang laughed out loud and said mysteriously, "However, I must remind you that you shouldn't regret it when the time comes."

Lu Yang was extremely curious and couldn't help but ask: "Grandpa Su, can't I promise to go? Tell me what happened first?"

"You can't say it, you can't say it. Everything is wrong." Su Lang Zhong had already walked far away, and his voice echoed in the air. "If you really want to know, then I can remind you that someone wants to see you."

"You want to see me? Could it be her? " Lu Yang's brows tightened. He immediately thought of something and chased after him in big strides.
