At three o'clock in the afternoon, Gao Han completed today's martial arts practice.

He first drank 250 milliliters of warm water to replenish the body's moisture - mineral salts and other trace elements were added to the water - and then took off his clothes and walked into the bathroom.

The bathroom is not a shower or bathtub, but a large wooden barrel containing a light red potion, which is a daily medicinal bath for the high cold.

This kind of medicinal bath is the secret recipe of Xiang Zhenguan. Although it does not use exaggerated medicinal materials such as heaven and earth treasures, it is not ordinary people who spend money on bathing every day, and even Xiaofu Family can bear it.

Moreover, the reason why this medicinal bath uses a wooden barrel instead of a bathtub is because the wood material of the wooden barrel itself is also an integral part of the medicinal bath. If ordinary people get the prescription but do not know the joints in it, it will be harmful to the body after long-term use.

Soak in it in a high cold.

The water temperature is quite high, about 60 degrees or more, so it is not comfortable to soak in it. However, this is necessary to make the medicine active and invade the body through the pores of the skin.

Gao Han was not very accustomed to this temperature, but he had to endure it for at least five minutes - every medicine bath was expensive and he could not waste it at will.

Five minutes later, Gao Han turned into a red lobster, crawled out of the wooden barrel, lay onto the massage table, the door of the medicine bathroom was opened, and three footsteps came.

He was very familiar with the footsteps of two of them. One was the massager Zhao who was responsible for massage on weekdays, and the other was Uncle Gu - why did he come?

It’s fine to hear these two footsteps, but the third footstep sound is slight and it’s hard to tell whether to raise your foot or stop.

Gao Han was shocked. He had never heard anyone's footsteps look like this since his adventure.

He quickly got up - although he was a little rude with his bare butt, he was more polite than lying on the massage table without moving carelessly.

"Uncle Gu, Master He, Master Zhao, you-?" Gao Han asked while saluting, while his eyes were floating down, paying attention to Master He's feet.

Although he had never seen a real person before, he had seen many photos.

Now when I saw the real person, I saw that the owner of the He Pavilion looked about forty years old, with short black hair and a loose body. Not only did he not have the majestic feeling in the photos, but he looked a little lazy.

When he walked, he didn't feel like he was exerting force under his feet, but he was hanging his feet while raising his legs. When he fell, his toes first dropped, but when he hit the ground, his forefoot and heels fell on the ground at the same time.

He looks much younger than Uncle Gu, but if there is no falsehood in introducing the real museum, the owner should be 62 years old.

"Xiaohan, I'm just here to see how you are doing. As for this owner of He Guan, he is here to see his apprentice." Gu Mingchen smiled slightly.

"Ah——" Gao Han was stunned.

Gao Han is not a fool. He gave up the college entrance examination and was under little pressure to study. He could watch TV that he could not watch before. With his smartphone in hand, the news on the Internet was well-informed, so he naturally knew who the martial arts master was - especially now he is an introductory disciple of Xiang Zhenguan. If he couldn't even figure out who the boss was, he would be too heartbroken.

————————————

In the past thirty years, martial arts has revived, and every martial arts master has the title of "Xiaqing".

Don’t look at the word “Xiaqing” with the word “Xia”, it has actually entered the uppermost class of the entire Yuntian Emperor Dynasty.

The traditional literati and official class is divided into nine levels, with the emperor as the ninth level, which is the pinnacle of the nobles.

The eighth level is the "Three Dukes", which cannot be hereditary. It is roughly equivalent to the president, Zong Shuai, and the speaker of the House of Assembly. He is in charge of the three major powers of administration, law and army. He will automatically step down once his term expires.

Next are the "Nine Qingshu" and Shangqing, who belong to the same class.

The Nine Ministers and the Three Dukes are similar, and they are also an administrative position; and the Shangqing is the descendant of the founding fathers who are called "retiring with the country" - you should know that the Yuntian Emperor Dynasty has been passed down for more than five thousand years, and any Shangqing family has a deep roots that ordinary people cannot imagine.

Next is Xiaqing. This level is the pinnacle that ordinary people can reach, and the peak glory of personal achievements - it cannot be hereditary.

This includes the county magistrate, martial arts master, engineering academician, university president, great scientist, and top doctor - Gu Mingchen, who is at this level, so although he is not the head of the Gu family, he can often be the head of the Gu family directly.

From here down, there are senior doctors, senior doctors, senior officials, sergeants, sergeants, corporals, and deep-rooted local prominent families like the Gu family. The hereditary position of the head of the family is just a junior doctor. Gu Mingzuo, the head of the Gu family, comes from his position as mayor, and cannot be retained after leaving office.

————————————

"Xiao Han, why don't you kowtow quickly?" Gu Mingchen winked at Gao Han.

"Master is here, I will be bowed by my disciple!" Gao Hankang and kowtowed, regardless of his naked body and the ground was wet.

He Wangyan held Gao Han with one hand and forced him to lift him up. "You are smart, but it's not that simple to become a disciple. Today we just set the title first. If you want Master, I officially open the class to accept disciples, you have to achieve some results - otherwise someone will chew the old man's tongue behind my back."

Although Gao Han obtained the inheritance of the Heavenly Snake, his own power did not immediately change drastically, and it was impossible to support Gao Han to develop a mentality of looking down on all living beings - the mentality of expanding is not so fast.

For Gao Han, the martial arts master is a big man who needs to look up to him.

He was lucky enough to be a martial arts master, and he was more lucky than a college student being directly included as a disciple by an academician of the Academy of Engineering. He was a standard pie falling from the sky, so he naturally had to open his mouth and catch it quickly.

——————————————

As the college entrance examination approaches day by day, Gao Han’s best friend Li Heng and his fresh girlfriend Zhang Yuou have focused their energy on the final sprint, and they have less chatting with Gao Han at night.

Gao Han is not easier than them.

As He Wangxing's disciple, or even a closed disciple, it is conceivable that He Wangxing's requirements for him are high.

Every day, I have to run 30,000 meters in long-distance running alone - I originally ran 10,000 meters, but He Wangting found that Gao Han was amazing in his endurance, so he extended the distance.

Basic tiger-shaped thirty-six-hand training; four-stage horse stance stance training for half an hour; uphill fist for forty-two-hand training; half an hour of fuhu stance for training spinal flexibility; downhill fist for nineteen-hand training; half an hour of hunching stance for training shoulder and arm strength.

Finally, Gao Han had to visualize the "Tiger Walking Snow Map" for half an hour before going to bed - Gao Han now lives directly in Xiangzhen Hall.

In order to enable Gao Han to practice martial arts wholeheartedly, Zhang He, the head of the Zhenguan, personally called Gao Han's parents and notified Gao Han's parents directly, saying that Gao Han would live in the Xiangzhenguan during this period. Gao Cheng and his wife agreed immediately, without even hesitating for half a second, which made Gao Han a little suspicious that they were preparing to have a second child.

Time flies, and two months have passed in a blink of an eye.

Long-distance running exercises perseverance; stake exercises to clear the body and mind; martial arts to increase self-confidence.

When Yu Xia was ordered to come to the training room to summon Gao Han, Gao Han was practicing boxing.

Gao Han is now completely different from two months ago. In the past, Gao Han was always worried about accidentally exposing the open-air snake heritage. Unless he was determined to kill someone and take his life, he always felt less relaxed.

But now, after nearly four and a half months of martial arts practice, Gao Han’s standing posture and eyes give people a feeling of being confident and holding his head upright.

Moreover, Gao Han now has clear and full muscle contours of the shoulders, back, waist, abdomen, thighs and calves. The skin is faintly radiant in the smoothness, and looks full of elasticity and explosiveness.

"Gao Han, Master Zhang He asked you to come over." Yu Xia said.

Although Gao Han and Master He had already decided to be a master-disciple, only a few people knew about this. Although Yu Xia had some speculations, no one told her about this matter directly.

"I understand, I'll change my clothes and go over immediately." Gao Han nodded.

————————————

"Young brother, you are here." Close the office door and Zhang He poured Gao Han a cup of boiled water.

This is not Zhang He's stingy, but Gao Han is still taking tonics to polish his body's foundation. Drinking tea is not good for the body.

"Senior Brother Zhang, what's the matter with me?" Gao Han asked.

“That’s right—”

Zhang He talked about the difficulties Xiang Zhenguan is currently facing with Gao Han.

Speaking of which, Gao Han has also heard of some causes of this.

Simply put, Xiang Zhenguan’s current operating business revenue has decreased, and the most direct factor in the reduction of revenue is that the Tiger Martial Arts School stepped on Xiang Zhenguan.

The Tiger Martial Arts School once organized a friendly exchange with students and true disciples who had not yet won the title of samurai in the name of communication. Xiang Zhengan proved his strength with the advantage of five wins and two losses.

But that's not how the accounts are settled.

Xiang Zhenguan is the true disciple. There are not many such disciples in Xiang Zhenguan. After all, Zhang He and his brothers and sisters have only three in total, and they have to deal with daily affairs. It is impossible to accept too many disciples.

Although these true disciples have not yet won the title of samurai, no one doubts their strength under the golden sign of Xiang Zhenguan;

The annual number of graduates of the Tiger Martial Arts School is hundreds of graduates, and less than ten people can achieve the status of samurai. This level of success rate is naturally not comparable to that of Xiang Zhendian.

The annual tuition fee of the Tiger Martial Arts School is only 200,000 to 300,000, while the annual tuition fee of the Xiangzhen Museum starts from one hundred million;

As for other related industries, Xiang Zhendian is far ahead.

Therefore, although the Tiger Martial Arts School lost five formations, it has proved its level as the Tiger Martial Arts School. With such achievements, the Tiger Martial Arts School will naturally promote it.

The most direct result of publicity is that the revenue from the real museum is reduced, while the revenue from the Tiger Martial Arts School has increased significantly.

The Tiger Martial Arts School was equivalent to scraping a layer of gold powder from Xiang Zhenguan’s golden signboard and putting it on his face. The Tiger Martial Arts School’s signature increased significantly, but Xiang Zhenguan was unhappy.

Moreover, Zhang He cannot say directly that the income you have caused to Xiang Zhenguan has decreased, otherwise he will appear to be ungraceful.

Now that he followed the teacher's instructions, he wanted Gao Han to start to increase his practical experience and prepare to participate in the Guanyun Cup, Zhang He suddenly thought of this unhappy thing.

Although Gao Han was already He Rongying’s disciple, he was secretly.

On the surface, Gao Han has not yet become a disciple of anyone, so he cannot be regarded as a true disciple, so he has to be considered an introductory disciple.

If an introductory disciple can make the Tiger Martial Arts School lose its temper, then Xiang Zhenguan can save some face.

If Gao Han loses, there is nothing wrong with it. Anyway, Master He Rongying just wants Gao Han to increase his practical experience. Setbacks are also valuable experiences for warriors, and sometimes even more valuable than victory experience.

——————————

So Gao Han is now standing in the arena of the Tiger Martial Arts School gymnasium, waiting for someone to come on stage to challenge.

Located in the north of Haixing City, the Tiger Martial Arts School is a martial arts school that has been established for less than 20 years. It currently has three grades, with a total of 124 students - almost all of them are in the gymnasium.

This is just a "friendly exchange", not a formal martial arts competition, nor does it calculate martial arts points, nor does it have reporters or broadcasts - such private competitions cannot be sold, and only some students in the stands took out their mobile phones to record the video.

However, before a student came to the stage to challenge, the school leaders would speak as usual - even in the martial arts school, this was inevitable.

"Students, I'm very lucky. We invited Coach Guo from Xiangzhen Pavilion to take his students to our Tiger Martial Arts School for martial arts exchanges.

As we all know, Xiang Zhenguan is the pride of our Star City and the entire Nanhai County. It has won awards in major domestic and international competitions many times, and its martial arts level is well-known throughout the Yuntian Emperor Dynasty."

"Not long ago, we organized an exchange activity with Xiang Shindo. Although we were behind in the scores, we learned a lot, and the students participating in the competition felt that they benefited a lot. Now, Xiang Shindo took the initiative to conduct martial arts exchanges with our Tiger Martial Arts School, which is an affirmation and support for us."

"Students, this opportunity is very rare. Everyone should seize the opportunity and compare styles and levels. Winning and losing are not the most important. What we can learn is the most important."
