"It's terrible, it's terrible, a spy from another martial arts hall has injured Instructor Zheng!"
"Damn... Are they trying to trample over our Descending Dragon Martial Hall?"
"Scoundrel, don't run, our martial arts hall is full of masters, do you think you can run amok just because you took down a Zheng Yaolie? We still have Zhen Alon, and Jia Zidan..."
............
As Zheng Yaolie was smashed into the wall, the entire Descending Dragon Martial Hall erupted...
From their point of view, the truth of the matter finally came to light!
This person is indeed a spy, coming with the intention to steal the martial techniques from within our Descending Dragon Martial Hall...
Then Instructor Zheng noticed something was off and specifically went to test him; otherwise, how could a Reserve Martial Disciple beat an elite Martial Artist?
The staff hurried over and carefully pulled Zheng Yaolie out of the wall...
Only then did they realize the severity of his injuries, which far exceeded their expectations – almost all of his ribs were broken...
The attacker's Qi Force was evidently very scattered, causing him to take hits all over his body, plus his inner defense was hollow, he's really lucky to be alive.
Whether he can continue to work in the way of Martial Dao, however, is completely dependent on his luck.
After a quick emergency treatment, he was immediately sent to the Martial Arts Association- affiliated hospital, where the most professional doctors with extremely profound experience in martial injuries are based.
Only after ensuring that Zheng Yaolie was not in any mortal danger...
...did Vice Director Li Kaitai turn his attention to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan had been watching the whole process...
It wasn't that he didn't want to leave, but after he injured the senior instructor, everyone's gaze towards him was filled with animosity.
Having become the center of attention, it was difficult for him to leave.
Li Kaitai praised, "Your strength is truly formidable, Zheng Yaolie's strength may not be in the top three within our martial arts hall, but after years of dedicated service, he is certainly skilled. For you to defeat him at such a young age, I'm sure you will shine brightly when the Dragon Gate examination arrives and rise swiftly... Unfortunately..."
Lin Yuan asked, "Unfortunately what?"
"Unfortunately, our Descending Dragon Martial Hall is too small a pond for a dragon like you, even injuring a senior instructor with your hands, who else would be qualified to teach you?"
Li Kaitai sighed, "Zheng Yaolie was injured in a fair spar, we won't pursue your responsibility, losing face in a spar must be recovered in a spar... But that's for the future, for now, please leave the Descending Dragon Martial Hall!"
"Leave now."
"That's right, we at Descending Dragon Martial Hall don't welcome you!"
"Damn spy, making such a scene, you're showing no respect for our Descending Dragon Martial Hall."
..........
Most of the students have been methodically studying in the Descending Dragon Martial Hall since childhood, and over the years, they have developed a very deep sense of belonging to the hall.
Now that someone has caused trouble, they naturally stand united against the enemy.
A spy?
They think I'm a spy?
Lin Yuan had long wanted to leave, but he had been too closely surrounded before... Forcing his way out would have made him seem guilty.
But now, they were actively driving him away.
Lin Yuan said, "Fine, I'll leave!"
Li Kaitai said, "Rest assured, we at Descending Dragon Martial Hall are not without principles. Accountant Li..."
"Here."
A man with glasses, holding a computer, his hair parted in the middle, answered.
"Calculate how many lessons this student is short of? Charge for the ones already taken at market price, but for the unused ones, refund the entire balance... We will adhere to the rules we should."
"Huh?"
Lin Yuan was taken aback and a look of bewilderment crossed his face.
"What are you waiting for? Leave. Don't want a refund? I'll tell you, it's not possible... Now that we know you're a spy from another martial arts hall, we'll absolutely not tolerate you here, you must return the money whether you like it or not!"
The person known as Accountant Li approached Lin Yuan and said.
Lin Yuan blankly said, "Oh, I can get a refund, I have no objection..."
Together, they went to the archives room.
Soon, they found the file on Zuo Jianqing.
```
"Heh... I still had over twenty lessons left? Lucky we caught on early, otherwise by the time you'd finished all of them, there's no telling how much we might have lost... Let me calculate... The price of one lesson is about 2333 yuan, and you have twenty-eight lessons left, so we'll refund you a total of 65324 yuan!"
A moment later.
Lin Yuan, holding the six neat stacks of cash in his hand, was enveloped in bewilderment.
I attended four lessons and learned quite a few martial techniques and theoretical knowledge, and they refunded me with an extra five thousand yuan?
Plus the money I bullied out of Fang Zihao earlier, so I essentially freeloaded four lessons and got a fifty percent discount on buying martial techniques as well?
"The money has been transferred. Your relationship with Descending Dragon Martial Hall is now officially terminated, and you're no longer one of us. Get out of here and stop being an annoyance,"
"Understood."
Lin Yuan had been eager to leave and, having received additional money, naturally did not linger.
He turned and went straight to change his clothes.
Without even taking a shower, he picked up his luggage and walked out.
As he reached the door, Lin Rourou saw Lin Yuan and wanted to greet him, but he stopped her with a look, indicating that he would explain the situation via mobile phone later.
Not long after Lin Yuan left,
Fang Zihao, who had just had his body checked at the hospital and been prescribed a bunch of medicine, also rushed back.
He ran right into Li Kaitai and the others seriously discussing something.
Feeling guilty, he couldn't help but want to avoid them... but he was called out.
"Zihao, you're just in time; there's something I need to tell you about your cousin,"
"What?"
Fang Zihao froze for a moment, and moments later, the medication in his hand helplessly fell to the ground.
His face turned deathly pale in an instant.
Although they were cousins, he had always followed closely behind Zheng Yaolie since childhood; they were no different from real brothers.
Who could have imagined...
That for a mere benefit of five thousand yuan, he would end up sending him to the hospital?
No, that's not right, he didn't keep the money... he had returned all of it.
Desperate, Fang Zihao urgently asked, "Which hospital is my cousin at?"
Li Kaitai informed Fang Zihao.
Fang Zihao, not even bothering to pick up his medication, turned and rushed out... His heart was already filled with immense regret.
Damn you, Zhao Sanyuan, it's all your fault, all your fault ahhh!!!
As for Lin Yuan, after he got on the subway,
The joy from getting his money back didn't last long before being replaced by concern.
"Just now... what did I do? 'Nayuan True Jue'... is this what it means?"
Zheng Yaolie's combat experience was indeed extensive; he perceived that Lin Yuan's fighting ability was not weak, so he tricked him into releasing his skill and then took the opportunity to attack... At that moment, he should have won overwhelmingly.
No matter how formidable Lin Yuan was, he was still just a novice to the Martial Dao.
His lack of combat experience made him easily fall for the trick, but by a stroke of luck, when the other's Qi Force entered his body, it was completely enveloped by his Spiritual Power and then converted for his own use.
Looking back on that feeling...
At that time, he had two choices - to envelop that Qi Force and then absorb it himself, transforming it into his cultivation base, which would have allowed him to somewhat improve his strength.
The second choice was to return the Qi Force that he had already controlled back to the opponent.
Along with his own Spiritual Power...
So the severity of Zheng Yaolie's injuries didn't happen by chance; he wasn't injured by Lin Yuan alone but also by the force of Lin Yuan and his own power combined. He didn't die only because Lin Yuan himself hadn't expected this outcome, and wasn't able to fully control the force, causing most of it to dissipate.
But what happens when Spiritual Power disperses outward?
Spiritual Charm!
The traces left behind by a Cultivator's actions... distinctly different from the aura of Spiritual Energy.
Something that the Eradication Department can detect.
Little did Lin Yuan expect that the events would take such a dramatic turn. He studied Martial Dao actually to conceal his Spiritual Power, yet he hadn't anticipated that due to Martial Dao, he might accidentally expose himself?
