"Stop!"

Wu Qu quickly intervened, "If you keep talking about this, I won't teach you anymore."

"Alright, alright..."

Li Yan smiled, "We slaughtered a sheep yesterday; there are some leftovers in the kitchen. I'll have someone heat them up for you; can you eat some lamb dumplings?"

"Anything is fine."

Wu Qu waved his hand impatiently.

After Li Yan left, he looked at Wu Ba who was grinning foolishly, full of disdain, "Are you even worthy of the Wu surname? From now on, I'll call you 'Big Fool,' and you have to respond, understand?"

"Understand, I... am called Big Fool."

Wu Ba grinned, rubbing his head.

Seeing this, Wu Qu became even more frustrated, continuously cursing Li Yan in his heart, though he didn't say much.

"Show me some horse stance!"

He commanded, and Wu Ba quickly assumed the horse stance.

The horse stance is the foundation of training, and under Yan's guidance these days, Wu Ba had gotten the hang of it.

But in Wu Qu's eyes, it was all wrong.

"You call this a horse stance?"

He scoffed coldly, suddenly stepped forward with his left foot, spun his body, and sharply raised his right foot, directly kicking Wu Ba's ankle.

He received this move many times when he first learned boxing.

It's meant to teach the disciple what a stable horse stance is.

Bam!

However, when he kicked, Wu Ba didn't budge.

"Hey~ this stubborn fool got lucky!"

Wu Qu felt embarrassed, even shouting out from Cangzhou dialect.

He exploded with Hidden Energy in his leg, suddenly hooking forward.

Yet, Wu Ba only swayed a bit but still didn't fall.

"Goodness..."

At this point, Wu Qu's expression changed.

He realized that Wu Ba wasn't using Hidden Energy to resist, it was merely brute force from his body.

He recalled what Li Yan had said earlier.

"My brother here, has Innate Divine Strength!"

Innate Divine Strength?

Wu Qu's eyes sparked with interest, and his right foot lightly nudged.

Bam!

Wu Ba directly fell forward, then got up, too busy to brush off the dust, still with a silly grin.

"Laugh?"

Wu Qu also chuckled, tilted his eyes, "Let's see if you can still laugh in a few days!"

...

"Beyond Jiuzhou are Eight Yin, beyond Eight Yin are Eight Extremes, and beyond Eight Extremes are the Eight Extremes, which means 'extreme distance in all directions'..."

"Head, shoulders, elbows, hands, tail, hips, knees, feet must be trained to the extreme; the whole body is an eye, the whole body is a hand!"

"This is called 'shouldering,' this is called 'spanning'..."

"Remember, the head must push, the neck must be firm, the body must be upright..."

"You big fool, you're driving me mad!"

As Li Yan expected, Eight Extremes was most suitable for Wu Ba.

This big guy is simply a natural gem.

A little polishing, and he becomes a peerless weapon.

Watching the gem transform into a Divine Artifact in his hands, no man can resist such temptation.

Wu Qu was the same.

At first, he only taught basic skills.

But after Wu Ba mastered them, seeing his ancient fierce demeanor, he couldn't help but teach him more.

Thus, the training consisted almost entirely of reprimands day and night.

Li Yan and the others naturally knew this was Wu Ba's opportunity.

Wu Qu was a genius of the Wu Family from Cangzhou, in terms of Martial Arts experience and vision, he was no less than Zhang Xiaoshan.

Li Yan couldn't compare to him.

With such a prestigious teacher, they couldn't miss this chance.

No one dared to speak loudly, even Sha Lifei had been occupying a room in the servants' courtyard for training over the past two days.

The promised two or three days unknowingly became a week.

Wu Qu seemed to have figured it out, although he cursed and swore, he still imparted a lot of the Eight Extremes essence.

No other reason, Wu Ba is simply naturally suited for the Eight Extremes.

Eight Extremes emphasizes "training clumsy force like a madman, soft and gentle seal, close, thrust, train inch by inch with in and out, adopt free posture like a lazy dragon, train heart, liver, gallbladder, spleen, kidneys, train muscles, bones, skin, and flesh into unity."

Ordinary people practice power for years of hard work.

But Wu Ba, with innate divine strength and extraordinary bloodline, has awakened his Body Divine Power and mastered Hidden Energy all by himself.

Practicing the Eight Extremes, he skipped the most difficult part directly.

Wu Qu tormented him all day to help him develop Whole Strength.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yan was responsible for gathering information outside.

He has now connected with the pugilistic world in Shu, and for some more secret intelligence, if he's willing to spend money, it can be obtained.

As he expected, the current pugilistic world in Shu is surging with undercurrents.

On Qingcheng Mountain, the new Master candidate is still silent…

Emei is also not having it easy.

The forces on the mountain are not completely broken, but they are busy with their own affairs, acting as if they are dead to each other…

Despite this, with the mediation of Guangde Temple, the various forces of the Mystic Sect in Shu reached a cooperation to jointly suppress the Dragon Worship Sect.

Zou Shaohai's Divine Fist Association took this opportunity to hold a conference in Chongqing Prefecture, inviting Divine Fist Associations from across Shu to unify their strength.

Even the Brotherhood joined them.

These pugilistic world figures cooperated with the Mystic Sect, wandering everywhere.

The entire strength of Shu was mobilized, yielding impressive results.

They collected intelligence everywhere and found several Dragon Worship Sect Dark Halls, much like the one Li Yan and his group found, hidden in deep forests and all controlling the Water God through Secret Techniques.

Under the power of the Mystic Sect, these Dark Halls were uprooted.

In addition, several villages secretly offering tributes to the River God Great Lord were found.

The Governor's Office in the Sichuan area personally ordered the Dragon Worship Sect to be classified as an outlawed cult, prohibiting its worship.

Ordinary people worship gods merely to ensure good fortune.

Now that it has become a disaster, people naturally avoid it.

In a short time, the Dragon Worship Sect in Shu became a public enemy, and coupled with the court's generous rewards for reporting them, people talked about it with fear.

Unfortunately, the Sect Leader of the Dragon Worship Sect never revealed himself...

As for the Shu Prince Mansion, there was also some trouble.

Just a few days after Dongzhi, an assassin in Chengdu Prefecture fired a gun on the street, using a new type of firearm, and blew a Commandery Prince from the Mansion to smithereens.

This incident stirred up a hornet's nest.

King Shu was furious, personally wielding a sword and riding a horse, leading the Mansion's personal guards to search all over Chengdu City.

This, in turn, violated the Holy Decree of self-reflection.

But facing the enraged King Shu, no one dared to discuss it anymore, even in the Capital, they sent down an edict posthumously conferring upon the deceased Commandery Prince to appease the Shu Prince Mansion.

This also revealed the Emperor's attitude.

After all, blood is thicker than water, as long as King Shu doesn't openly rebel, the Capital will turn a blind eye.

Because of this incident, the once dormant officials of the Shu Prince faction rose up, with all kinds of impeachment and complaint letters flying like snowflakes to the Chengdu Prefecture Government Office and the Capital.

The Imperial Censor who came to cause trouble earlier also left Sichuan in disgrace.

King Shu has truly broken free from his restraints.

This is definitely not good news for Li Yan and his group.

The unscrupulous Shu Prince Mansion might not resort to sneaky tactics against them anymore.

Li Yan certainly knew who the culprit was.

Tang Ling of the Mei Mountain Sect!

Surely "Young Master Wuxiang" was secretly instigating as well.

In this situation, Li Yan naturally wouldn't leave casually.

They stayed within the borders of Sui Ning, sheltered by Guangde Temple, and the Shu Prince Mansion seemed to have forgotten about this matter, not sending anyone again.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yan, like everyone else, practiced boxing at home during the day and searched for places with dense Yin Sha Qi at night to cultivate the "Luo Feng Scripture."

Unconsciously, several days passed, entering Lesser Cold.

According to the lunar calendar, it was already the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month.

There wasn't much time left until the Chinese New Year.

And Wu Qu's teachings finally came to an end.

"The Fengdu Yellow Springs meeting is about to be held."

After breakfast, Wu Qu said directly, "I have to make a round, at least to dig out that traitor."

Li Yan quickly said, "How about I go with you?"

"No."

Wu Qu shook his head and said, "It's not suitable for you to go, they'll just have more excuses to trouble me, and that traitor will hide."

"Don't worry, they can't stop me!"

After saying this, he looked at Wu Ba with a complicated expression and shook his head, "If there's a chance in the future, take him to Cangzhou, perhaps the Meng Family would make an exception to accept him."

"Farewell!"

"Take care on your journey!"

As people of the pugilistic world, there wasn't much reluctance, Wu Qu packed his bags and headed to the dock, taking a boat directly to Fengdu.

Meanwhile, a letter also arrived from Qingcheng Mountain.

The new Master candidate for Qingcheng has finally been decided!
