I Can Replicate Martial Arts

Luo Min’s transformation and what Father Miao had said filled Zhao Rui with a growing sense of urgency.

The potential risks were unforeseeable. The only real solution was to increase his own strength.

Back at his place, he didn’t rest. Instead, he sat cross-legged and began to review the Martial Arts he had mastered.

The moon was bright and the stars were few; the night was long.

In a flash, the moon set and the morning sun rose, the night’s dew settling unseen.

The sky outside the window was already bright.

Zhao Rui, who had meditated the entire night, slowly opened his eyes. A sharp glint, like starlight, flickered within them, making them remarkably striking.

He retracted his aura and composed himself, letting out a long, turbid breath. After stretching his body slightly, he rose to his full height.

The competition was over, but he still had to find ways to earn more Advancement Points.

After reaching the Grandmaster Realm, he had earned very few Advancement Points. He had been completely focused on solidifying his new Realm and studying the practical applications of his Martial Arts.

Now that the trivial matters were out of the way, it was time to get back to earning Advancement Points and increasing his True Qi reserves.

After advancing to the Grandmaster Level, his Advancement Points no longer increased his Inner Strength. Instead, each point now represented a year’s worth of True Qi cultivation.

Although it was still equivalent to a year’s worth, and the ratio hadn’t changed, the significance was completely different.

The sheer power and purity of True Qi was on a completely different level from Inner Strength.

After a quick wash, Zhao Rui went out for a pork tenderloin flatbread and a cup of century egg and lean pork congee. He was just about to drive around to look for a few Martial Arts Halls.

His phone started to ring.

"My sword... slices through the heavens... Love and hate, all for victory..."

Zhao Rui casually answered via the car’s Bluetooth. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, is this Zhao Rui?"

It was a woman’s voice, vaguely familiar. After a moment’s thought, Zhao Rui instantly smiled. "Tian Lili? What can I do for you?"

The call was from Tian Lili, Yang Fan’s girlfriend.

"Is Yang Fan with you? Hand him over! If you don’t, I’m not done with you!"

Tian Lili’s tone was far from friendly; it was downright domineering.

"Yang Fan? Didn’t you two leave together yesterday?"

Zhao Rui was stunned.

"Stop trying to fool me! Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you’re an Eighth-level Martial Artist. If you want to protect him, you’d better think about whether you’re capable of it."

"If you don’t hand him over, I’m bringing people to your school to find you right now!"

Zhao Rui couldn’t care less about Tian Lili’s furious rant. He was focused on only one thing: that rascal Yang Fan hadn’t left with her.

The kid had lied to him yesterday.

"You don’t have to come find me," Zhao Rui said in a grim voice. "Tell me where you are, and I’ll come to you. Yang Fan is not here!"

"I don’t believe you. You’d better just hand him over."

Tian Lili said her piece, then hung up with a sharp CLICK.

Zhao Rui’s brow furrowed, and he quickly dialed Yang Fan’s number.

The call went straight to a message saying the phone was off.

’What the hell is that guy up to!’

Zhao Rui rushed back to the university. Just as he reached the entrance, he saw four or five cars roar up and screech to a halt at the gate.

Seven or eight people piled out of the cars and began to stride menacingly toward the campus.

Leading the group was none other than Tian Lili.

"This is a university. What’s your business here? Unauthorized personnel are not allowed on campus."

The security guard didn’t back down an inch. ’Didn’t they know where they were?’

"I’m here to find someone!" Tian Lili said coldly.

"Who are you looking for? You can call them from here. Outsiders are prohibited from entering."

The guard took out a rubber baton and braced it against the electric gate.

’How dare a lowly security guard try to stop me!’

Just as Tian Lili was about to force her way in, a tall young man behind her grabbed her arm and shook his head.

Tian Lili’s anger subsided slightly, and she shouted fiercely:

"I’m looking for Zhao Rui from your Martial Arts Team! Tell him to get his ass out here!"

"You’re looking for Zhao Rui?"

Hearing this, the guards exchanged astonished glances.

’Someone actually dares to come looking for trouble with him!’

The guards’ tension immediately eased. Just as they were about to ask a few more questions, they saw Zhao Rui striding over.

"Tian Lili!"

Zhao Rui called out in a cold voice.

Tian Lili whipped her head around at the sound of his voice. The moment she saw Zhao Rui, she stomped toward him, her face contorted with rage.

"Hand over Yang Fan!"

’This woman has a real attitude problem! What kind of girl storms a university campus with a gang of thugs?’

Zhao Rui’s eyes narrowed. With a flick of his finger, he struck one of her acupoints. He then grabbed her by the neck and lifted her off the ground as if she were a little chick, carrying her away.

’Blocking my university’s gate?’

’Do I have no pride?’

"Let her go!"

The people with Tian Lili froze for a second before exploding in fury and charging forward as one.

Zhao Rui glanced back, his eyes cold, and barked, "Scram!"

Invisible Sound Waves, like cracking thunder, bored into the ears of his attackers.

"Aargh! My head!"

Those with weaker Power clutched their heads and began rolling on the ground in agony.

Only three of them remained standing, their faces pale as they desperately circulated their Inner Strength, staring at him in utter shock.

Zhao Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly. Still holding Tian Lili, he leaped onto the steps of the bank near the university entrance.

The few students passing by quickly gave them a wide berth.

"That’s Zhao Rui from the Martial Arts Team!"

"Those guys are in for it now."

"Seriously! Of all the people to pick a fight with, they chose him."

The murmurs from the crowd reached the ears of the three men who were still on their feet.

The faces of the three men twitched uncontrollably.

Meanwhile, on the steps, Zhao Rui casually unblocked her Dumb Acupoint. He frowned and asked, "What’s going on with Yang Fan? Why wasn’t he with you?"

"Stop pretending. He’s with you."

"Let me go right now, or I’ll make you pay!"

Tian Lili craned her neck, her face a mask of indignation.

Zhao Rui hadn’t expected her to be so pig-headed. He flicked a finger, and a bolt of True Qi shot instantly toward one of the young men still on his feet.
