The Primacy of Talent!
Xia Country does not lack resources; what it lacks are talented Martial Artists!
Zheng Yanbo disclosed the truth, "Besides Student Jiang Shu, Principal Zhang, can your school find another Martial Arts Student capable of Qi Blood Transport? Or even better, one who has achieved small success in Qi Blood Sensing and the Horse Stance?"
It was like a dagger thrust into Zhang Taining’s heart. Zhang Taining gave a wry smile. As a principal, he naturally cared about the actual situation of the Martial Arts Students in his school. Just as Zheng Yanbo had guessed, aside from Jiang Shu, there was not a single one, not even one who had achieved Qi Blood Sensing!
Martial Arts—it truly was a track only the talented could enter.
How had he spoken so carelessly all of a sudden? If he really allowed all the students in the school to practice martial arts, he, as principal, would probably have to resign next year. He would be sending a batch of students who could have attended an undergraduate program to a vocational one instead. That would be too big a blunder.
Jiang Shu was just an exception!
Seeing that Zhang Taining had recognized the error in his thinking, Zheng Yanbo said no more. Looking at Jiang Shu, his gaze filled with undisguised admiration, he stated, "Jiang Shu, you have now achieved Great Success in the Horse Stance, and you are only one step away from Perfection. But this step is not necessarily easy or simple. So, I only say that there’s hope for the academy. But regardless, with your current talent, becoming a Martial Artist in the future is almost certain."
"When that time comes, you will truly understand why we practice Martial Arts and what its purpose is."
Having said that, he stretched out his arm to check the time on his watch. Zheng Yanbo continued, "You’ve listened to me for so long, you must have many questions. While we still have some time, feel free to ask. I’ll see which ones I can conveniently answer."
"Thank you, Mr. Zheng, for your guidance."
