“Stop keeping us in suspense. Let’s go! Follow me to the backyard.”

Lu Yi scolded jokingly. He grabbed Han Zhao’s arm and pulled him to the backyard.

“F*ck! Senior Brother Han has grasped Internal Force?!”

“Isn’t this too exaggerated?”

“Senior Brother Liu, didn’t you say that Senior Brother Han is two years younger than Senior Sister Xu? Doesn’t that mean he’s only 22 years old this year?

“A 22-year-old Force Tempering Martial Master?!”

“If I can break through to the first Blood Qi Breakthrough at the f*cking age of 22, my life will be worth it.”

“There’s really no comparison between people!”

After a while, Han Zhao and Lu Yi returned to the front yard.

“Junior brothers and sisters, I’ll take my leave first.”

Han Zhao cupped his fists at everyone and left the martial arts school.

Seeing this, Lu Yi came to the middle of the courtyard, cleared his throat, and said, “You should have heard it just now. I’m preparing to move the martial arts school to the prefecture capital in half a month. Those who are willing to follow can go to the prefecture capital together.”

“If you’re unwilling to leave, come to my study in three days. I’ll refund the

rest of your tuition fees. Think about it carefully.”

With that, Lu Yi walked towards the backyard.

There was not much to pack. Half a month of preparation time was more than enough, but he had to arrange for the apprentices and sell this house.

Although Lu Yi had lived here for half his life and he was a little reluctant to sell the house and leave, it was more important to reconcile with his daughter.

Before leaving, he still had to visit the Martial Masters he had a relationship with. He could not cut off his relationships just like that.

“Brothers, Senior Brother Han wants to bring Master to the prefecture capital.

We have to follow him!”

“That’s right. To the prefecture capital!’

“The strongest people here are Force Tempering Martial Masters. There are also Visceral Tempering Grandmasters and legendary Martial Saints in the county city. I want to see the outside world.”

“This might be my only chance in life. I have to seize it!”

After Lu Yi left, the apprentices present were in high spirits. Many of them were tempted.

Blackrock City was like a small pond that could only produce small fish and shrimp. As for Yuan Chang County’s prefecture capital, it was a vast sea that could nurture flood dragons.

The two were incomparable.

Of course, having a high chance also meant that the competition was intense and the danger was high.

After Lu Yi left, the apprentices who were learning saber techniques in the inner courtyard left the martial arts school.

They wanted to inform their family of this news.

To some apprentices with backgrounds and families rooted in Blackrock City, they knew the cruelty of the prefecture capital even better.

However, those apprentices who had nothing to begin with were willing to take a gamble.

If they lost, no matter how bad the situation was, it would not be any worse.

If they won, they would change their fates.

‘I’ll take my chances.’

Soon after Han Zhao returned from the prefecture capital, the news of him

breaking through to Force Tempering at the age of 22 swept through the entire Blackrock City like a hurricane.

Not to mention a small place like Blackrock City, a 22-year-old who had grasped Internal Force was also a genius in the prefecture capital.

All the major factions sent invitations to the Xu residence

However, Han Zhao only went to see County Magistrate Wu Di that night. The next day, he followed the team of the trading company and set off for Baijie City.

Baijie City was located northwest of Blackrock City. It was a relatively large city in the vicinity.

Compared to small cities like Blackrock City, Jade Wind City, and Jiayuan City which had been established for less than 200 years, Baijie City had existed hundreds of years ago.

The ancestor of the He family, which the county magistrate of this city was from, was a grandmaster-level expert. Because he had encountered hundreds of challenges in his life and won every battle, he later became the county magistrate and changed the name of this city to Baijie City.

Currently, the county magistrate of Baijie City was still a member of the He family. Every generation, a Grandmaster Realm expert would appear in the He family. He was almost a local tyrant in the nearby area.

However, the He family never expanded. They only guarded an acre of land in

Baijie City.

It was hard for anyone to imagine.

The head of the He family, He Jingtong, was a Sect Protector Dharma King of the Longevity Sect.

In every generation of the He family, only the family head could become a Visceral Tempering Grandmaster. It was also because only the family head was qualified to know this secret.

The current He Jingtong was already over 70 years old. He was a perfected Two Qi Grandmaster and was powerful, but he had already passed the peak of blood qi. The possibility of him advancing further was not high. Furthermore, because he had been injured once when he was young, he did not have much lifespan left.

Five days later.

The caravan traveled to the forest 300 miles away from Baijie City.

Seeing that the sky was gradually turning dark, everyone prepared to find a relatively flat spot halfway up the mountain to set up camp. In the end, someone discovered a manor halfway up the mountain. “What’s that smell? It smells so good!”

“Yeah, just by smelling it, I can eat three big bowls of rice!”

“This is the smell of fragrant meat hotpot.”

“What’s fragrant meat?”

“It’s dog meat. As the saying goes, the smell of cooked dog meat makes even immortals unable to stand steadily.”

The martial artists gathered at the entrance of the manor and swallowed their saliva when they smelled the fragrance.

Along the way, other than encountering inns, most of the time, they ate and slept in the wind. Even if they had meat to eat, they ate hard jerky.

Suddenly smelling the smell of dog meat, everyone immediately felt their cravings being hooked.

“Fragrant Meat Manor… I remember now. This is the Fragrant Meat Manor, a place specially for the nobles of Baijie City to rear meat dogs. This fragrant meat is superb!”

A middle-aged martial artist shouted and swallowed his saliva.

When the other martial artists heard this, they looked at the leader, Xu Ling.

The current Xu Ling was not only the young lady of the trading company, but she was also a Force Tempering Martial Master. In the entire trading company, no one dared to object as long as she said no.

Seeing this, Xu Ling glanced at Han Zhao..
