When he saw the prompt.
Lu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
A god-level talent was indeed extraordinary.
It had allowed him to reach a C-class evaluation so quickly.
This also meant.
Even if he were to leave the simulation now, he could still become an official simulator!
On top of that.
There was also an unexpected surprise.
The C-level temporary talent card [Nine Bulls and Two Tigers].
Unlike the permanent talents drawn by simulators.
Temporary talents can only be used in the current simulation.
When Lu Yuan returns to the main world, the talent effect will disappear.
However, the permanent talents of a simulator can be brought into the real world.
But even so.
Temporary talents are still very useful.
For example, descendants of simulator families often carry several temporary talent cards during their first simulation, giving them a chance to achieve higher simulation ratings.
However, temporary talent cards are extremely expensive, and even descendants of wealthy families may not be able to afford them.
Just like the C-level temporary talent card [Nine Bulls and Two Tigers] in Lu Yuan's hand.
If it were in the main world, it could be sold for at least ten thousand simulation points.
In terms of money, that's a billion.
An ordinary person wouldn't be able to make that much money even after hundreds of years!
The effect of this talent card is simple and crude.
After using it, you can gain the strength of nine bulls and two tigers.
And there are no side effects.
Lu Yuan didn't hesitate and immediately used the talent card on himself.
In a short time.
Accompanied by a warm current, Lu Yuan's limbs and bones became much stronger.
"Your physical attributes have greatly improved, and the duration of Heavenly Reward Diligence has increased to six hours!
"My strength has more than doubled."
A slight smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face.
Now, with a casual punch, he could make a sound of air breaking.
If the head of Changfeng Pavilion was still here,
He could be blown away with a flick of his finger!
...
Back to the Lu Martial Arts Hall.
When Lu Yuan's father found out that his son had successfully passed the martial arts hall examination.
He was so happy that he didn't sleep all night.
The next day, he made a decision that went against the ancestors!
Send Lu Yuan to school!
He heard his parents' decision.
Lu Yuan was stunned.
I'm almost a martial arts grandmaster and you're sending me to study?
But Lu Yuan's parents believed him.
Even though the Lu Martial Arts Hall was a family business that had been passed down for generations,
In this rapidly changing world of technology, martial arts were a thing of the past.
No matter how much you practice martial arts, it is still just flesh and blood.
It is impossible to overcome the limitations of the human body.
With Lu Yuan's excellent talent,
If he used the time he spent on martial arts to study, he could achieve even greater things in the future.
But as a simulator, Lu Yuan was well aware of this.
This world had already been targeted by paranormal beings.
No matter how advanced technology becomes, it can only eliminate physical threats and cannot pose much of a threat to the paranormal.
Only by reviving martial arts could there be a glimmer of hope!
But Lu Yuan's parents knew nothing of this.
Faced with his stubborn parents,
Lu Yuan could only use his trump card.
The three-step strategy: cry, make a scene and be cute.
Under Lu Yuan's relentless harassment,
His parents had no choice but to change their minds and agreed to let him continue his martial arts training.
However, this incident also made Lu Yuan realise something.
The weakening of martial arts in this world was worse than he had imagined.
Just like the idea that studying was useless in his previous life,
Most people in this world also believed that practicing martial arts was useless.
If he wanted to revive martial arts, he'd have to change everyone's wrong beliefs first!
But changing ingrained beliefs is easier said than done.
Even though Lu Yuan had god-level talents, changing the public's perception was no easy task.
About this.
He didn't have a good solution either.
So he put the matter aside for the time being.
Until one day.
When he was teaching others,
Some students started playing around.
They recorded videos of Lu Yuan practising martial arts and uploaded them online.
Not long after the video was posted, it started a small heated discussion.
What kind of joke?
Three-year-olds still wet their beds at night.
And he can understand fist intent?
Although most ordinary people haven't practised martial arts, they know the value of fist intent.
It's far more valuable than any prestigious rank.
Haven't you noticed that those elders from the old martial arts sects?
Don't smoke, don't drink, don't even look at beautiful women.
They spend decades in seclusion.
Just to understand this concept.
And you tell me,
that a three-year-old brat can understand what most grandmasters spend their lives seeking?
That's like saying that a primary school pupil has won the Nobel Prize.
Ninety-nine percent of netizens believed it was a fake.
But while the laymen were watching the excitement, the experts saw the truth.
Some martial artists who had spent decades studying boxing techniques didn't believe it either.
But the more they watched, the more amazed they became.
When an expert makes a move, you can tell if he has it.
If you put aside your prejudices about age,
Lu Yuan's moves were smooth and practiced to perfection.
He had obviously honed the Wind Thunder Fist to its peak.
Furthermore, from Lu Yuan's videos of himself teaching other students,
With just a few words, he solved problems that had puzzled many martial artists for years.
This meant,
His understanding and achievement in martial arts was even deeper than many Grandmasters!
"Who would've thought that third-rate martial arts skills could be performed to such an extraordinary level? Master, I understand now!"
"You don't understand, this master punches like a dragon, with powerful and fierce momentum."
"With just this boxing method, he could be on par with martial arts grandmasters!"
"There's no doubt about it, this is an amazing young grandmaster!"
Some knowledgeable martial artists were amazed and immediately left comments.
But they were quickly contradicted by many netizens.
"What fist intention? It's just a kid posing for the camera."
"Yeah, you guys must be paid to hype it up."
"I've seen enough of these stunts to promote child prodigies, can't you be more creative?"
In the face of these arrogant remarks.
Many veteran martial artists trembled with anger.
"You can talk nonsense, but words are serious".
"Grandmasters should not be insulted. In ancient times, disrespecting a grandmaster could get your entire clan killed!"
"Sir, times have changed."
"Martial arts grandmasters? You must be living in the last century?"
"Martial arts have been abandoned; technology is the mainstream. Only you relics who refuse to accept reality are clinging to past glories."
Seeing these heartbreaking comments,
Many martial artists were so angry that they wanted to follow the Internet wires and defeat their opponents single-handedly.
"Talking is easy. If you have the guts, let's meet offline and fight!"
"Are you crazy? Who fights like that nowadays?"
"You think you're tough? How many divisions can you take on?"
The argument escalated and quickly gained thousands of comments.
The video was recommended to the trending section by algorithms.
More netizens flocked to the comments, sparking a new round of fighting.
Even the student who uploaded the video couldn't believe it.
His unintentional act,
had sparked a conflict between martial arts and technology.
Some random netizens turned their attacks on Lu Yuan.
They accused him of using measures to gain power.
But he was not angry.
As a sharp young man of the 21st century, Lu Yuan quickly realised.
This was an unprecedented opportunity.
Individual power is limited.
But by using online media, you could influence countless people.
In this technologically advanced world, with various entertainment short video apps available.
With a little manipulation,
He might be able to use this opportunity to spread ancient martial arts.
And make the Lu Martial Arts Hall famous nationwide!
