Chapter 124: Fists and Flesh—That's Men's Own Kind of Romance!
"The incineration trait has become even more terrifying..."
Fang Qingyu looked at his slash, different from before.
It seemed like an annihilating effect.
In reality, it was high-temperature rapid incineration, reducing it to black charcoal.
If someone had told him before that a Martial Artist could achieve this level, Fang Qingyu wouldn't have believed it to death.
But now,
he truly achieved it.
This is a Martial Artist.
Like a blank canvas, allowing the martial practitioner to wield the brush as they wish.
No one can dictate what path a Martial Artist must take, for the true way is not on another's tongue but beneath one's own feet.
Everyone's path in Martial Arts is written with blood and sweat, stroke by stroke.
Everyone's martial trajectory is etched with sharpness, step by step.
Though different from one another,
each is splendid in its own right.
"Qingzi, did you break through?"
Qi Hao saw Fang Qingyu's new form but no longer exclaimed loudly.
"Probably...?"
Qin Hui's scalp was already numb.
Only Jiang Wei's focus was strangely full of curiosity on her little face.
"Did he break through while in the bathroom?"
This left the two in shock.
Then they shook their heads, smiling wryly.
How could they possibly both break through while going to the bathroom?
Seems like Qingzi was afraid of discouraging them, so he didn't exert himself fully before...
The two naturally thought of this.
Overthinking is the deadliest.
When Black Flame was fully absorbed, Fang Qingyu walked back.
Qin Hui and Qi Hao's attention had already shifted from Fang Qingyu's strength to the Life Ghosts' anomalies.
"Qingzi, something seems off with these Life Ghosts, should we report it to the authorities?"
Encountering such reckless Life Ghosts twice in a row.
This was completely different compared to before.
It's no wonder the two were so cautious.
Hunting Life Ghosts was like having your head on the line.
Even a slight mistake could cost your head.
If unaware of the reason, Fang Qingyu's thoughts would probably match theirs.
But all of this...
was thanks to Jiang Wei.
Looking at Jiang Wei,
Fang Qingyu's gaze grew increasingly satisfied.
She truly is his lucky star...
The number of Life Ghosts encountered in the morning alone already exceeded the total hunted by the Third Squad prior.
Just the merits from one morning.
were at least several hundred points.
"No need, I'm aware."
Fang Qingyu waved his hand with a smile, sending them a reassuring glance.
The two didn't say more after that.
Then the staff came in to wrap up the work.
Fang Qingyu and the others officially clocked out.
Qin Hui and Qi Hao, having gotten approval, caught a ride back to the Divine Management Bureau together.
This time, they were truly motivated.
The motivation to train was pushed to the max by Fang Qingyu.
As for Jiang Wei, she raised her little head to look at Fang Qingyu, "Where are you heading next?"
Fang Qingyu pondered for a moment.
"I have to attend Elite Class first, then learn to dissect Life Ghosts, and then practice martial arts."
"Do you want to head home first, or come along?"
"Of course, come along."
Jiang Wei responded without hesitation.
Fang Qingyu chuckled, "Alright then."
He had left Jiang Wei at the Divine Management Bureau for a long time yesterday; he couldn't very well ditch her again.
Fortunately, Jiang Wei was currently a Reserve Member of the Divine Management Bureau.
Whether in the military camp or any other location, she was capable of going.
Especially when the Elite Class members saw an eight-year-old girl who could become a Reserve Member, indicating higher combat power than them.
Two hours later.
With Fang Qingyu's persistent teaching.
The diagram finally yielded some benefits.
[Congratulations, your profession "Martial Arts Coach" has advanced to Level 2 (0/200)]
[Congratulations, your profession's unique skill "Reviewing the Old to Learn the New" has advanced to Level 2 (0/200)]
Both profession and skill leveled up.
This skill is quite intriguing, enabling new martial insights when reviewing already perfected skills.
Because of this, Fang Qingyu indeed gained new insights during the teaching of basics.
However, the diagram hadn't shown any changes yet.
But Fang Qingyu's main objective in grinding was to level up.
The skill effect not taking effect for the moment didn't matter.
As he got in the car.
Jiang Wei looked somewhat sullen.
"What's the matter?"
Fang Qingyu noticed and kindly asked.
Jiang Wei recalled the recent performances of those people, which seemed quite unbearable to her, "Is this what is called the elite among current humans? They're quite weak..."
"Nowadays, even without practicing martial arts, one can live comfortably. The number of people practicing martial arts isn't large relative to the base population, so it's normal for their talent to be slightly poorer compared to your time."
Fang Qingyu explained for them.
After all, times have changed.
Jiang Wei listened and fell silent, gazing at the skyscrapers outside, lost in thought.
Fang Qingyu didn't speak further either.
He parked the car at the entrance of the Divine Management Bureau.
"Would you like to go up to the 28th floor and wait for a while? I'm going to the morgue now, and it might not smell pleasant."
Fang Qingyu asked as he led her into the elevator.
"Okay."
Jiang Wei wasn't all that interested in Fang Qingyu's studies on dissecting Life Ghosts.
On reaching the 9th underground level.
Zou Lingzhu got straight to the point.
Leading Fang Qingyu to a specially prepared room, beginning to teach him to dissect the corpses he had slain.
"Next time... unless it's a necessary Life Ghost, don't use full force."
After a quick glance over all the Life Ghost corpses.
Zou Lingzhu suddenly reminded him.
"Eighty percent of the Life Ghosts, even if they don't have valuable things on them, their skin can still fetch some money. Killing them in this manner will lose you some income."
Such words would not be said to anyone else but Fang Qingyu.
"Alright."
