Chinese Kungfu became popular overnight. Countless people were excited and proud at the same time.
Y was the man with real Kungfu!
That night, after witnessing Ye Lingchen's Chinese Kungfu, countless people had the thought of watching Huo Yuanjia. Furthermore, once that thought was born, it was hard to extinguish. A martial arts film produced by Y would definitely be exciting!
[I'll buy tickets to watch Huo Yuanjia tomorrow! I hope the fighting scenes won't disappoint me!]
[Hahaha, previous poster, you're too slow. I've already bought tickets just now. I'm just waiting for the midnight show!]
[Motherf * cker, my Huo Yuanjia has too few showtimes. There's only one show a day. I'm going to wait.]
[Huo Yuanjia's ratings are a little low. Those who watch it should think about it.]
[I'm going to watch it just because of Y!]
[I've watched Huo Yuanjia before. I highly recommend it. It's really good. You won't regret it if you watch it!]
…
The openness of the internet was on full display at that moment. Chinese Kungfu continued to ferment and spread like wildfire.
That night, in many different places, similar things happened at the same time.
[Man: I've returned the ticket for I am Hero and bought a new ticket for Huo Yuanjia.]
[Woman: What?! What do you mean? Change it back right now!]
[Man: That sissy Wu Han is actually filming a martial arts film. He's an embarrassment to China! I want to support Y!]
[Woman: How is our Hanhan embarrassing you? He's so handsome. Doesn't Y only know some Kungfu? Our Hanhan is the best!]
[Man: I'll never watch Wu Han's movie!]
[Woman: Y dares to look down on our Hanhan. We must boycott Huo Yuanjia. Not only will I watch I am Hero, but I'll also buy ten movie tickets to support our Hanhan!]
[Man: Diehard fans are scary! Let's break up and spend the rest of our lives hugging Wu Han's poster!]
…
That night, Ye Lingchen slept exceptionally well.
He woke up early and checked his popularity points out of habit. The moment he saw it, he was stunned. He rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not seeing things.
His popularity points had inexplicably shot up from 900,000 to 1052793.
It increased by close to 100,000!
This was … too surprising!
He opened Weibo on his phone, and sure enough, he was on the hot search list. Even now, he was still at the top of the hot search list!
The title was: [Actor Y's Chinese Kungfu!]
Looking at the comments on Weibo, Ye Lingchen noticed that many people wanted to watch Huo Yuanjia to support Y.
This was truly an unintentional move. He was still racking his brains on how to deal with Huo Yuanjia, but who would have thought that last night's fortuitous encounter would achieve the desired effect of publicity.
His popularity points had finally exceeded a million. Did that mean that he could finally begin the intermediate upgrade of his knowledge?
Ye Lingchen's heart was on fire. His heart could not help but thump in anticipation.
Basic knowledge had already surpassed the limits of humans and was extremely rare in the world. As for intermediate knowledge, it was likely that one would be able to soar through the sky.
Without any hesitation, Ye Lingchen entered the system panel.
Currently, there were eight basic knowledges. They were:
Bird Language (Basic), Diatribe (Basic), Parkour (Basic), Transfiguration (Basic), Arhat's Fist Force (Basic), Animal Taming (Basic), Dog Language (Basic), Eight Extremities Brute Training (Basic).
Although there were only eight basic skills, they were of great help to Ye Lingchen. It could be said that with these skills alone, he could do whatever he wanted in the city. If he were to upgrade all of them to basic or even advanced level, the power would be unimaginable.
'Then … let's begin!'
Ye Lingchen took a deep breath. The strong sense of anticipation made it difficult for him to breathe.
Intermediate knowledge upgrade, begin!
The yellow glow flickered wildly, flashing back and forth between the eight skills. Ye Lingchen was filled with anticipation amidst his nervousness.
Finally, the glow stopped abruptly and stopped at Eight Extremities Brute Training (Basic)!
The upgrade was in Kungfu!
Ye Lingchen's pupils contracted slightly, his eyes filled with excitement.
His love for Kungfu had never diminished. In fact, as time went by, his anticipation grew. He was getting closer to his martial arts dream!
With a flash of golden light, Eight Extremities Brute Training finally changed from basic to intermediate.
In Ye Lingchen's mind, on top of the original cultivation foundation, many different movements were added. Those movements could be described as insane, almost distorting a person's body.
Compared to basic, Eight Extremities Brute Training had a much higher demand on the body. Moreover, it required constant torture to strengthen the muscles and bones of the entire body. It was even possible to adjust one's own muscles and temporarily change the position of one's bones.
For example, a person's punch only had a force of 100 catties, but Ye Lingchen could gather all the muscles in his body into his right hand by wriggling them. That way, most of the muscle density in his right hand would increase to 200 catties!
Apart from that, if a person were to slash at him with a knife, Ye Lingchen could gather most of his muscles at the position of the attack. Even if he was not invulnerable, he was not far from it.
Amazing!
Ye Lingchen's eyes lit up. As expected of an intermediate skill. Compared to basic skills, it was more than a level higher. With Eight Extremities Brute Training combined with Arhat's Fist Force, his attack could only be described as terrifying. If he were to raise Arhat's Fist Force to intermediate level, that punch could probably collapse a house!
Being in a foreign land, Ye Lingchen could not start practicing that new skill. He got up and had breakfast, then headed to the meeting place with Lu Consortium's Master.
"Grandmaster Ye." Lu Tianxiong and Lu Hao had been waiting for a long time. Their faces were filled with exhaustion and anxiety. It was obvious that they did not sleep well the night before.
On the way to the casino, Lu Hao explained the situation to Ye Lingchen.
There were 58 real estate companies participating in the gamble. Among them, 50 were local Chinese companies, while the other eight were foreign companies.
Because the location of this year's land was excellent, many real estate companies unexpectedly invited some eccentric gambling experts to participate.
"Other than last year's champion, Jin Heng, who invited the overseas experts, the Gambling King's disciple, Miyako, and the blue-eyed monkey, Meng Jiu, there's also Nanshan's Nine-fingered Gambling Maniac. Moreover, there are eight foreign companies. This is the largest number in history. We can't underestimate them." Lu Hao and Lu Tianxiong spent the entire night gathering information. The more they learned, the heavier their mood became.
Ye Lingchen listened with a calm expression, nodding his head lightly and not responding.
He had already begun to calculate the price in his mind. Fifty-eight families, each taking out ten million chips, that would be five hundred and eighty million!
As for winning or losing …
'Is this prodigy afraid of mere mortals?'
