The next day, Ye Lingchen woke up early as usual.
The hotel was built within the park, providing Ye Lingchen with great convenience as he could jog along the lawn.
Along the way, Ye Lingchen realized that the park was huge. Apart from the hotel, there were a few villas built within. Red walls and green tiles were hidden among the trees. It was a perfect place to live.
Needless to say, the people who lived there were either rich or respectable.
After his morning jog, Ye Lingchen practiced Arhat Fist at an empty space by the river.
After repeating it three times, the crowd in the quiet park started to increase. Many old men walked in from the outside, and with a sense of teamwork, they slowly started to practice Tai Chi. Their movements were neat and uniform.
After watching for a while, he lifted his leg and prepared to leave.
However, when he passed by an empty space, his footsteps paused.
Under a tree not far away, a girl in white sportswear was practicing Tai Chi.
Beside her, an old man coughed from time to time, occasionally giving the girl a few pointers. Behind the old man were two bodyguards in black.
'Aren't the old man and the girl the people from the hospital?'
Ye Lingchen raised his eyebrows. He did not expect them to be from Capital City. No wonder they exuded a sense of nobility in their gestures.
If it were not for him, the old man would no longer be in this world. Even so, the old man's face was still very pale. He would cough violently every once in a while.
Ye Lingchen's attention was mainly on the girl. His eyes revealed a look of interest.
'Could that girl be practicing … martial arts?'
If he had not learned Arhat Fist, Ye Lingchen would never have thought in that direction.
"Could there really be people who continue to practice martial arts in this era?" Ye Lingchen was shocked and slowly approached.
The girl was practicing Tai Chi very seriously. Every punch was accompanied by a gust of wind. Coupled with her tall figure and handsome face, she gave off a sense of heroic beauty.
"Strength from your waist! Stand firm in a horse stance! Don't hesitate when you punch! "
Accompanied by the coughs, the old man sternly gave pointers.
'Observing Lin Ruoyu's Tai Chi, Eight Extremities Fist proficiency + 1.'
'Observing Lin Ruoyu's Tai Chi, Eight Extremities Fist proficiency + 1.'
'Observing Lin Ruoyu's Tai Chi, Eight Extremities Fist proficiency + 1.'
…
When he got closer, a string of proficiency points appeared in his mind again, causing his heart to skip a beat.
Their family actually practiced the Eight Extremities Fist.
Due to learning the Arhat Fist, Ye Lingchen went out of his way to find a lot of books on martial arts. Although none of them could be used for cultivation, he still managed to learn a lot of martial arts secrets.
The Eight Extremities Fist was known for its ferocity and was very particular about actual combat. It was one of the fist types that combined fighting and training.
Due to its high practical value, the Warrior's Department and the Armed Police had incorporated some of the characteristics of the Eight Extremities Fist into their training.
Many bodyguards of leaders also practice Eight Extremities Fist!
The Eight Extremities Fist even had the true meaning of sixteen words — "Loyalty and righteousness, using the body as a shield, sacrificing oneself without self, and taking the lead in the face of danger."
To be able to cultivate the Eight Extremities Fist, the origins of this old man and young girl were worth investigating.
Fragrant sweat gradually dripped down the girl's body. Her slender waist swayed vigorously, and her clothes clung tightly to her body, outlining the soul-stirring lines of her chest.
After looking for a while, the proficiency stopped at 20% and stopped increasing.
As expected, this young girl's Eight Extremities Fist was still too far off. It only had the form but not the spirit.
According to the system's evaluation, her proficiency was probably only at 20%. Therefore, it was impossible for Ye Lingchen to surpass it.
Fortunately, Ye Lingchen already had a clear understanding of the Eight Extremities Fist. Combining it with the Arhat Fist, he was confident that he could restore the true Eight Extremities Fist. When the time came, he would be able to increase his proficiency by himself.
The old man would never have dreamed that a person could completely master the Eight Extremities Fist with just a few glances. Otherwise, he would not have allowed the young girl to cultivate there.
The path of a martial artist required the guidance of a master. Otherwise, it would be difficult to achieve greatness even with the martial arts. Unfortunately, Ye Lingchen was an exception.
Ye Lingchen could only blame himself for being too insane.
There was no point in watching any longer. Ye Lingchen shook his head and left.
The way he shook his head and sighed irritated Lin Ruoyu who was cultivating at the side.
She was a proud person to begin with. She immediately retracted her fist and looked at Ye Lingchen's back. She leaned forward and raised her hand to deliver a punch.
Hearing the sound of the wind behind him, Ye Lingchen's body moved slightly to the side and dodged the punch. He then pressed his body against Lin Ruoyu from the side.
With a Arhat Mountain Lean, he knocked Lin Ruoyu away.
"Damn, you're really a martial artist!" Lin Ruoyu retreated. Her face was frosty and she said coldly, "What do you mean by shaking your head? Are you looking down on me? "
His training was indeed not that good.
Ye Lingchen's knowledge was very high. He had gone through the Eight Extremities Fist in his mind and had a rough idea of it. In his eyes, Lin Ruoyu's Eight Extremities Fist was full of flaws.
As long as he went back and practiced a few more times, it would not take long for his Eight Extremities Fist's proficiency to reach 100%, just like his Arhat Fist's proficiency!
"I just happened to pass by and took a look. I don't have any other intentions." Ye Lingchen shook his head and said calmly.
"Since you're a martial artist, why don't we exchange a few moves!"
Lin Ruoyu saw that Ye Lingchen was about the same age as her and her competitiveness was ignited.
"I'm just practicing. Naturally, I'm not your opponent." Ye Lingchen did not want to cause trouble and prepared to leave.
"You're not allowed to leave!" Lin Ruoyu scolded, "Stop being so hypocritical. You shook your head just now because you don't care. You're not allowed to leave unless you fight me!"
"Yu 'er, don't be unreasonable!"
The old man yelled and coughed a few times. He walked in front of Ye Lingchen, "I'm Lin Tianhua. May I know your name?"
"I'm Ye Lingchen."
"Nowadays, martial arts are on the decline. I didn't expect to meet you here. It must be fate. May I know who your master is?" The old man asked with a smile.
"I learned martial arts by chance. I don't belong to any sect." Ye Lingchen replied.
The old man thought that Ye Lingchen did not want to say it. "I've been rude."
"Goodbye."
Ye Lingchen did not want to stay any longer. He turned around and left.
However, a beautiful figure came rushing at him. Accompanied by a soft snort, she clenched her fists and her body was like a crescent moon as she attacked Ye Lingchen.
Ye Lingchen's face darkened. He turned around abruptly, like a ferocious tiger.
Lin Ruoyu only saw a blur before her hands were held in Ye Lingchen's.
She looked up in surprise, but all she saw was a pair of eyes filled with impatience. Her heart skipped a beat.
The next moment, Ye Lingchen bent his body and her body flew into the air. After a moment of dizziness, she was slammed heavily onto the ground.
Shoulder throw!
When she regained her senses, all she could see was Ye Lingchen's back.
"You …"
Lin Ruoyu struggled to get up. She stared at Ye Lingchen's back, her entire body aching.
"Great skills!"
The old man looked at Ye Lingchen's fading figure, his eyes filled with admiration. "His moves are like the wind, done in one go. This person's mastery of fist techniques has definitely reached the level of a master!"
"He's a violent maniac who doesn't know how to be gentle with women!" Lin Ruoyu said angrily. "He's not a man!"
"Hahaha, now you know there's always someone better out there." The old man laughed. "It's been a long time since I've met such an interesting young man."
"Hmph, don't let me meet him next time!" Lin Ruoyu patted the dust off her body. When she recalled Ye Lingchen's gaze earlier, a sense of familiarity appeared in her heart.
"I must have seen that pair of eyes somewhere before!"
…
After returning to the hotel, he took a quick shower and met up with Xiao Feifei.
The hotel had a buffet breakfast. Both western and Chinese food were available. Ye Lingchen ordered a bowl of noodles, two pieces of bread, a glass of milk, a boiled egg, a fried egg, two roasted sausages, and a piece of bacon.
On the other side, Xiao Feifei and Sister Lin only had a cup of soy milk, a piece of bread, and a boiled egg.
It was a stark contrast to Ye Lingchen.
"You're eating too much." Xiao Feifei looked at Ye Lingchen in surprise. Not only did he eat a lot, but he also ate very quickly. A bowl of noodles was finished in two mouthfuls.
"You're the ones who ate less." Ye Lingchen corrected her, then carried the plate and continued looking for more food. "The amount of food here is too little."
"What a glutton!" Sister Lin looked at Ye Lingchen's back and said in disdain.
Following that, Sister Lin hesitated for a moment, then said to Xiao Feifei, "Feifei, I've just received news that Lu Group is one of the sponsors for Legend of the Heroine."
"Lu Group?"
Xiao Feifei furrowed her brows.
"Lu Group is everywhere. There's nothing we can do." Sister Lin's expression was not good either. "If that's the case, the news of you being the female lead of Legend of the Heroine might reach Lu Hao's ears."
At the mention of Lu Hao, Xiao Feifei's eyes flashed with a hint of disgust.
"Lu Group is too powerful. As long as it's a good script, they'll usually get involved."
Sister Lin sighed helplessly.
Lu Hao, the only son of Lu Group's CEO, the sole heir of Lu Group, was a famous playboy from Capital City.
It was not a day or two since he had his eyes on Xiao Feifei. Xiao Feifei had rejected his invitation three times. He did not expect that he would not be able to avoid it in the end.
"If Lu Hao were to invite me again this time, I'm afraid …" Sister Lin was worried.
It was fine to reject once or twice, but once it exceeded the third time, it would be considered a feud. Lu Hao might very well fly into a rage out of humiliation!
"Alright, Sister Lin, I'm tired. Let's not talk about it anymore." Xiao Feifei sighed. "If there's really nothing we can do …"
"What are you guys talking about?"
The food on Ye Lingchen's plate was piled up like a small hill.
After sitting down, he wolfed down the food, looking as if he was going to fight with the food to the end.
"Is it that good?"
Xiao Feifei looked at Ye Lingchen's expression and could not help but smile. Her initially gloomy mood improved a little.
"Ye Lingchen." Xiao Feifei supported her head with one hand and looked at Ye Lingchen. "You don't like acting and don't like being the center of attention. Perhaps that's the right thing to do."
The center of attention. While receiving countless gazes of respect, one would also be the target of evil.
