This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!

Chapter 232: Chapter 19: Using Oneself as Bait, Iron Blade Sect

After receiving the task from the Inspection General Office, Li Fei did not immediately take action.

In the following days, everything proceeded as usual.

By the end of the month, he remained first on both the Academic Points Ranking and the Martial Master Combat Power Ranking.

The first place on the Martial Master Combat Power Ranking could earn a reward of 40 academic points each month.

The first place on the Academic Points Ranking could earn a monthly scholarship of 1000 yuan, as well as Elixirs necessary for Martial Arts Cultivation.

Li Fei could choose his Elixirs for Martial Arts Cultivation; he currently did not need any Elixirs, so he selected some that were hard to acquire r and left some for Tian Yu and sent some back to Xing City for the people at Qingyuan City Management Company.

When February arrived, Li Fei chose classes taught by three special instructors.

These three special instructors all taught courses aimed at martial masters, one teaching Saber Technique, one teaching movement technique, and one teaching grappling and wrestling.

The special instructor teaching grappling and wrestling was Li Fei’s target—Chen Xiang.

This man was the one the Inspection General Office suspected of having connections with spies from Mei Jia Country.

Li Fei did not rush to attend Chen Xiang’s class to avoid arousing the latter’s suspicion; selecting courses from three special instructors made it less conspicuous.

February 3rd.

Li Fei arrived in front of a huge sand pit, the location where Chen Xiang taught his classes.

There were more than twenty students in the sandpit, and they were all somewhat surprised to see Li Fei.

“Junior Brother Li, I didn’t expect you’d also attend Teacher Chen’s class.”

Someone took the initiative to greet Li Fei, a student who had sparred with him in the arena before.

“Yeah, I always need to learn some hand-to-hand combat skills. Otherwise, what would I do if I lost my weapons?”

As Li Fei spoke, he took off his shoes and walked barefoot into the sandpit.

The ground was made into a sandy area because it was teaching grappling and wrestling, which made it less likely to get injured during practice.

A moment later, a muscular man with dark skin, tall stature, and a white tank top walked into the sandpit.

He felt like a piece of black steel, tempered a thousand times, with a tough and powerful presence!

This man was Chen Xiang.

Chen Xiang noticed Li Fei in the crowd at first glance and was somewhat surprised.

Then, without betraying his emotions, he spoke solemnly to the students present:

“Class begins!”

Chen Xiang’s teaching method was simple; he let the students spar one-on-one, using only grappling and wrestling techniques, while he would provide guidance on the side.

“This is your first time in my class; today, you’ll practice with me first.”

Chen Xiang was the first to find Li Fei and said.

“Please enlighten me, Teacher Chen.”

Li Fei bowed to Chen Xiang.

“Just strike freely; I want to see the techniques you’ve mastered.”

Chen Xiang spread his arms and gestured for Li Fei to begin.

Li Fei did not hold back and rushed towards Chen Xiang.

‘Blue Hand’ also contained content on grappling and wrestling, and Li Fei had practiced it during his middle school years; he was naturally capable, but not particularly proficient.

He dashed up to Chen Xiang, his hands reaching out for him.

Chen Xiang stood still, letting Li Fei grab his arms.

As Li Fei began to exert strength with his hands and tried to trip Chen Xiang with his feet, Chen Xiang moved his hips, effortlessly breaking Li Fei’s force without any visible movement.

Then Chen Xiang lifted his hands to grab Li Fei’s arms, his hands as large as two giant iron clamps and firmly locking down Li Fei’s arms.

The next second, a surge of Innate Qi flowed out from his palms, electrifying like a current, quickly spreading through Li Fei’s entire body.

Li Fei had never encountered such use of Innate Qi before, feeling his body go numb, and then Chen Xiang threw him flying.

He quickly got up from the sandpit and charged at Chen Xiang again.

The two sparred a few more times, with Li Fei easily being thrown out by Chen Xiang each time.

Chen Xiang did not use any overwhelming force; from start to finish, he did not exceed the martial master’s level.

“It seems you really need to practice.”

Chen Xiang stopped and commented to Li Fei.

Afterward, he began to instruct Li Fei on techniques for grappling and wrestling, including the use of Innate Qi.

“Your Overlord Body can resist various abnormal states, making it very suitable for practicing grappling and wrestling. Advanced techniques typically use Innate Qi or Force to limit an opponent’s body, but you can withstand it with your Overlord Body and then counterattack.”

After guiding Li Fei for over twenty minutes, Chen Xiang said something similar to him.

Hao Yi had previously told Li Fei similar things, suggesting he should practice grappling and wrestling when he had time.

“The student understands.”

Li Fei bowed to Chen Xiang.

“You two practice together.”

Chen Xiang called over another student to spar with Li Fei while he went to instruct other students…

In the days that followed, Li Fei attended three of Chen Xiang’s classes each week, and more than two weeks had passed.

During this period, there were no abnormal actions from Chen Xiang; he earnestly taught Li Fei various techniques, and Li Fei seriously learned, treating Chen Xiang no differently from the other instructors.

February 17th, afternoon.

Li Fei finished his class in the sandpit for the day.

“Li Fei.”

As Li Fei was about to leave, Chen Xiang suddenly called out to him, “Stay a moment.”

“Okay.”

Li Fei nodded and stopped in place.

After all the students from the class had left, Chen Xiang approached Li Fei and said gravely:

“Have you heard of the Duel Martial Arts School?”

Li Fei shook his head.

“It’s a gym specializing in grappling and wrestling, quite famous within Datong Prefecture City.”

Chen Xiang looked at Li Fei, “I am friends with the master of the Duel Martial Arts School, and they will have an internal competition in two days. I would like to recommend you to participate.”
