March 4th is a good day, the Jingwu Academy is officially open for business.

A lot of parents came with their kids, holding experience coupons and inquiring about courses.

Li Xiang's disciples warmly greeted the parents at the entrance, resolved their questions, and arranged courses on the side.

Due to the many parents who signed up for 9.9 yuan, the academy's space could not accommodate everyone at once, so they had to divert the parents and use these three trial classes as an opportunity to promote their semester courses.

To put it bluntly, the 9.9 yuan trial class is just for attracting people to the academy's opening.

Li Xiang also took a day off from Zhao's place to assist in the academy.

The scene was bustling, and a long line was forming outside the door.

"Parents have a need for supplementary lessons. To ensure their children don't lose at the starting line, they will naturally think of various ways to cultivate their kids. Now that off-campus tutoring classes are being cracked down on, parents are feeling empty and starting to focus more on interests and hobbies. Our Jingwu Academy not only teaches martial arts for self-defense but also boosts health and fitness, perfectly aligning with parents' needs."

Miao Jun, looking at the lively scene, suddenly felt emotional. These interest and hobby trainings are now more popular than his previous subject tutoring. This move of his was the right one.

The next step is to find a way to convert the parents who came due to promotions into paying members, and then it would be a success.

"Yes, the smooth start of the academy would not have been possible without your joining, otherwise we would have been busy with paperwork, delaying at least three months," Chen Long sighed. Nowadays, those muscular guys of his have transformed into instructors, and their imposing physiques make them seem formidable. Although they are mostly for show, sometimes that's exactly what's needed to impress, especially since it's teaching kids some forms, not real fighting.

"That's not right. The smooth operation of the academy owes a lot to Master Li. Without his course design, who among us would understand training?"

To ensure the academy's official opening and training of students, Li Xiang stayed up late to devise courses for preschool, elementary, and middle school levels.

The preschool level is easy to understand; it's for pre-school students. It's more about playing with children than actual training, with no real technical content. The training manual only includes some simple starting moves.

The elementary level corresponds to primary school students, focusing mainly on physical exercise and basic forms. The manual includes a bit of basic fighting techniques, but not much.

The middle school course corresponds to junior high students, who are in a stage of rapid physical development and at an age where they can best learn fighting techniques. Relative to other stages, the training is more advanced, showcasing the academy's training level, which is why Li Xiang put the most effort into this phase.

Each stage has corresponding coaches that Li Xiang personally trained overnight, explaining the teaching details. Only after he nodded could they become academy coaches.

As for advanced courses, his disciples do not yet have the ability to be advanced course coaches.

Li Xiang has his own evaluation mechanism for his disciples, assigning them to a coaching level matching their abilities, and any promotion must be approved by him.

Luckily, the academy does not currently need to offer advanced courses. Their target is clear: students below junior high level. As for high school students?

Do they even have the time?

They're busy preparing for college entrance exams, let alone coming here for training.

If they do come, they should start with the intermediate class to build their foundation.

The three of them looked at the bustling scene ahead; the first shot of the Jingwu Academy had been fired and now they waited to see how many paying members they would have after the three experience classes.

"Make way, make way."

"What are you doing, pushing..."

The parent who was pushed saw the scene behind and suddenly stopped speaking, pulling their child to the side.

Noticing the situation, other parents also sensibly pulled their children aside, as these people were clearly not to be trifled with.

"Something's wrong."

Chen Long frowned, looking at the group forcing their way through the crowd with aggressive intent.

"Let's go and check it out."

Miao Jun, being the investor, certainly did not want trouble on the first day of opening. It was not a good omen and needed to be properly handled.

"Wow, there are a lot of people, such enthusiasm. Nowadays, scammers are good at marketing. What can such young kids learn anyway? I advise all parents to open your eyes wide when enrolling kids in classes."

"Exactly, especially martial arts training. It's easy for kids to get hurt, and if not trained properly, it could leave lifelong repercussions."

"When choosing a training institute, consider the teaching staff and strength. Our Xianglong Taekwondo Academy's head coach Wang Yong is a 6th degree black belt in Taekwondo, and has won provincial Taekwondo gold medals. In Jinling, we should be your first choice for martial arts learning. With a big reputation, you won't be easily fooled."

"Just look at this decoration, it looks like a shell company. Who knows if they might take your money today and run away tomorrow."

The newcomers were a group wearing Xianglong Taekwondo uniforms, numbering seven, barging aggressively into the academy. The parents of the children signed up for trial classes quickly realized something exciting was happening.

They were all too familiar with this scene, often seen in martial arts movies where a new academy is challenged by another.

Unexpectedly, they stumbled upon this drama. At this point, why bother with the trial classes? The spectacle was far more interesting.

Some even nodded repeatedly, agreeing with their criticism that Jingwu Academy looked like a shell company.

Due to the rush to open, not much money was spent on renovations.

But who would know that Chen Long and his team were financially constrained, thus saving where they could while spending wisely?

Putting money on the essentials, they naturally avoided spending on fancy yet costly and useless decorations, ensuring security measures were in place and fire safety approvals were obtained.

In the face of baseless provocations from competitors, how could the disciples of the Jingwu Academy stand it? They were indignant and surrounded them:

"What are you saying? Demeaning others to lift yourself, are you really that good?"

"Our Jingwu Academy does not welcome you."

"Get out, or we'll call the police."

Formerly aimless individuals, now thriving in the academy, had invested all their hopes and aspirations here. For them, this academy symbolized hope and salvation.

They would not allow anyone to destroy their livelihoods at this point.

"Call the police? Hahahaha~"

"Did you hear that? They want to call the police. Who can't call the police? Then why are we learning martial arts?"

"Exactly, when it comes to critical moments, is calling the police even an option in time?"
