Pei Buqi nodded upon seeing this.
"Brother Yang, it would be best if you could master it."
"If you can't master it, you can take a look at the Burning Gold Palm technique that I've chosen to practice."
"This technique, while not as powerful as the Five Elements Force in terms of true qi, is domineering and sharp, with enormous destructive force, like a sharp axe carving, making it a unique skill."
Yang Silang naturally thanked Pei Buqi for his kindness.
Pei Xiaqi then enthusiastically introduced him to the other Grand Martial Masters.
The people's attitudes were neither particularly warm nor cold; a nod was enough to signify acquaintance.
Yang Silang then arranged to invite Pei Buqi for drinks another day. He believed that having more friends meant having more opportunities. Pei Buqi was hospitable, and Yang Silang naturally reciprocated, as normal social interactions should not be neglected.
Pei Xiaqi readily agreed and left his address.
The crowd dispersed.
At this moment, a familiar soldier came over and said that Instructor Qi Rubai invited him.
Yang Silang was puzzled. Wasn't Instructor Qi supposed to be the commander of the garrison? Why hadn't he set off yet?
He turned and went to a side room inside the martial arts hall.
The Martial Arts Hall has seven or eight instructors. Apart from the head instructor, who is rarely seen, the rest are all Grand Martial Masters of the Steel-Dirty Realm. Instructor Qi is just one of them.
inside the house.
When Instructor Qi saw Yang Silang, he looked him up and down several times, his eyes shining as he smiled.
"My subordinates reported that your name was on the list of people entering the tower today."
"Very well, I knew you weren't simple."
"In less than three months since we parted, you have already become a Steel-Dirty Grand Martial Master. Now, we can be considered to be at the same level."
"It just so happens that we need to find a steel-dirty martial arts master for this matter. You can be of help."
Yang Silang said a few words of modesty, then asked curiously what the matter was.
"Instructor, shouldn't you have taken up your post by now? Why are you still staying in the training hall?"
Qi Rubai laughed and gave a brief explanation.
It turns out that the problem with the dynasty was that even if someone obtained an official position, they couldn't necessarily take office immediately. They had to let the predecessor clean up the mess and smooth things over to avoid causing trouble for the successor.
He had waited so long, and was about to take up his post. Fortunately, the garrison was just outside the provincial capital, so it wasn't too much of a hassle.
Qi Rubai said he had something to ask Brother Yang for help with—his form of address changed very quickly.
It turns out that he has now been promoted to commander, and the position of instructor has become vacant. After all, he is a fourth-rank military officer, which is something that those in power look down on, while those who want to become officials and are waiting for the position to be filled are envious.
A fourth-rank official position, at least the benefits are there, and it's a good stepping stone in the future.
The competition is fierce, and it all depends on the behind-the-scenes maneuvering. It will take more than a month to finalize the decision. He is about to take office, but a new batch of students is entering the martial arts academy for further training. Someone must temporarily fill this position, and it has to be the Steel-Dirty Grand Martial Master, who is proficient in the Great Five-in-One Fist.
"Brother Yang, the head instructor has passed this problem to me, otherwise he won't let me leave. After thinking it over, I'd like to ask you to stay at the martial arts hall for a month and work as an instructor. How about that?"
Yang Silang instantly understood that they were looking for a temporary worker who could be used immediately and then discarded.
Well, it's not impossible, but we need to negotiate the terms.
After all, in a month, his temporary instructor position would be meaningless, so he had to get some benefits for himself, right?
He feigned hesitation, and Qi Rubai simply revealed the truth.
"Your month of teaching wasn't wasted; you've earned what others have."
"In addition, I have spoken with the head coach. Apart from teaching boxing, he can enter the Martial Arts Tower during his weekly rest days."
What do you think?
Yang Silang simply responded.
"Whether or not I enter the Martial Arts Tower doesn't matter; the main thing is that I can help Instructor Qi!"
"I agree to this!"
"But I need to bring a close attendant; I can't go it alone."
If one could have more opportunities to enter the Martial Arts Tower, one could see and learn more; only a fool wouldn't agree to that.
Qi Rubai was overjoyed and immediately agreed, promising to complete the formalities today so that Yang Silang could enter the martial arts hall tomorrow.
They left the martial arts hall.
Yang Silang returned to the Hanshan Martial Arts School and told Tong Renyuan about what had happened. He said he would be staying at the Martial Arts Hall for a month. Tong Renyuan said that was a good thing.
"However—" Old Tong blushed slightly, "if you have time these next few days, go and find my unfilial son. He's always indulging in women; what kind of behavior is that?"
Yang Silang naturally agreed.
We got outside.
Wang Daniu excitedly pulled Yang Silang aside and asked.
"Fourth Brother, now that you're a temporary instructor, are we finally going to see a return on our investment?"
"I used to send money to the martial arts academy all the time, but I never thought I'd have the chance to receive money there too."
Yang Silang burst into laughter upon hearing this.
He practiced stance training in the courtyard for an afternoon, first trying to walk along the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian.
In one afternoon, the five-fold rejuvenation technique was used four times, finally opening up the single meridian. For an ordinary person, it would take several days.
This is just the first step in overcoming countless difficulties.
Moreover, it is not shown as included in the system, which clearly shows that Yang Silang is still far from mastering it.
It was getting dark outside.
Yang Silang finished his stance training and called Wang Daniu out.
On the bustling street, after turning through several alleys, a smoky, powdery atmosphere suddenly appeared in the alley, and a seductive brothel with many pink lanterns hanging on the wall and a signboard that read "Tianxianglou" came into view.
The window was half-open, revealing a slender figure that appeared and disappeared in the distance. The sounds of string and wind instruments playing and singing drifted in, accompanied by a snickering laugh that seemed to come from nowhere.
Wang Daniu shrank his neck in surprise.
"Fourth Brother, did our centenarian settle down in this place?"
"Wow, he's amazing! Just looking at this place and smelling it makes my legs go weak and my arms go limp. All those days of training have been for nothing! My heart is pounding!"
Suddenly, a beautiful figure rushed into Wang Daniu's arms. She was wearing a thin silk jacket, which seemed to reveal everything yet not everything. She had a small, pointed face and was smiling.
"This burly gentleman hasn't even entered my boudoir yet, so what makes you think your legs are weak and your hands are trembling?"
"My name is Susu, and I possess thirteen secret techniques that will guarantee you'll be completely limp from head to toe, inside and out. Why not give them a try?"
boom----
A fire immediately ignited on Wang Daniu's face. He bent over, tucked in his buttocks, and simply shook his head.
"No, no, we're practicing virginity training—"
"Nothing beats the pleasure of dual cultivation!" Su Su was anything but naive; one of her pretty hands was already reaching down to Wang Daniu's belt.
Snap—
Yang Silang slapped a snowflake silver ingot directly onto Su Su's high, round chest.
Susu immediately abandoned Wang Daniu and rushed into Yang Silang's arms.
"It turns out this official is even more anxious."
Seeing the woman's eagle-claw hand heading straight for him, Yang Silang grabbed her by the neck and gently shook her, instantly dissipating all her strength.
Despite the pain, Su Su managed a smile.
"Sir, Susu only eats vegetables and doesn't eat meat. I can't please you with that preference."
Yang Silang said coldly.
"Stop beating around the bush, I'm here to see a good friend."
"Which room is Young Master Tong of the Hanshan Martial Arts School in? Take me there immediately!"
After Su Su accepted the money, she saw Yang Silang announce his name and pouted.
"Sir, you should have said so earlier! Young Master Tong is a very distinguished guest here. I'll take you there right away—"
She dropped her flirtatious manner, carefully put away the silver, and gracefully walked into the building.
Yang Silang and Wang Dani went inside and saw that it was bustling with people. Dozens of women dressed like Su Su flitted among them like butterflies, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of perfume.
Wang Daniu couldn't see enough with his eyes, and he only regretted that he wasn't the Horse King and had one less eye.
Yang Silang, however, kept his eyes straight ahead; this test could not break his composure.
He just muttered to himself that when he grabbed Su Su's neck and shook her, he actually held back his strength. However, although Su Su was shaken until she was weak, he still felt her body stiffen the moment his hand touched her neck, as if a surge of energy instinctively gathered and then dissipated on its own.
In other words, if he felt it wasn't bad, Susu must have practiced martial arts.
Yang Silang carefully observed Su Su's movements. He saw that the woman's waist swayed gently, her hips swayed in circles, and her body had a graceful and charming figure. There was really no trace of body training.
He knew that martial arts were flourishing in this world, but did that mean even the girls in the building had to learn martial arts?
Yang Silang remained vigilant and did not let go of his suspicions.
Inside a quiet, unassuming room.
The room had a faint sandalwood scent, which actually diluted the sweet and cloying fragrance of Tianxiang Tower outside, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.
A banquet was set up.
Tong Baisui sat angrily in the main seat, with a beautiful woman in white standing behind him. This was none other than Ruyan, the girl Tong Baisui had fallen in love with at first sight, and who was willing to turn against her family for her.
This woman has a delicate and beautiful face, like a lotus emerging from water. Her features are pretty but not seductive, and she has a pure and innocent feel to her.
Yang Silang and Wang Daniu stayed with Tong Baisui for about 100 days.
In addition, Su Su, who led the two in, was a girl from Ru Yan's room.
According to the rules of Tianxiang Tower, some of the top female entertainers are assigned maids to their rooms, who serve as both servants and bed warmers.
The main strategy is to offer a combination of high-end and low-end products, selling them as a package deal, so that profits can be maximized when dealing with high-spending customers.
Su Su served tea and wine inside the room. She had put away her coquettish manner and was actually a capable and efficient maid.
Yang Silang sat down and looked at the room. The room was elegantly decorated, unlike the residence of a courtesan in a brothel. It looked more like a unique boudoir of a wealthy family.
Tianxianglou knows how to understand people's mentality, knowing that a big meat dish must be paired with a big vegetarian dish.
The three sat together. Tong Baisui had a tense face, showing a mix of anger, embarrassment, and nervousness.
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Yang Silang smiled and began to recount some trivial matters from his return to his hometown. Tong Baisui relaxed and chatted for a while.
No one mentioned why he stayed overnight at Tianxiang Tower.
After several rounds of food and drinks, the atmosphere became harmonious.
Wang Daniu then mentioned at just the right moment that Fourth Brother had broken through to the Steel-Dirty Grand Martial Master level.
Tong Baisui looked delighted and asked eagerly.
"Congratulations, congratulations—" He touched his clothes and laughed at himself, "I should have prepared a generous gift for you, brother."
"Alas, it's a pity that I'm penniless right now and can't even scrape together five taels of silver—I'll remember that and make it up to you later."
"If it weren't for Ruyan's kindness in taking me in, I'm afraid I would be homeless."
He sighed a few times, vaguely implying that Ruyan had argued with the madam of Tianxiang Tower several times because of him, and that because of him, they couldn't open the doors to customers, and now they were just sitting around eating away their savings.
Susu interrupted, clearly annoyed.
"Does Young Master Tong only have eyes for my sister and have forgotten about Susu?"
"They're clearly working hard to earn money to support you."
