When Luo Yang had just nudged An Yuying's left foot out of the way, she gave a cry and sat down.
Fortunately, Luo Yang was right behind her, and his hands were still holding her arms.
As An Yuying's body started to fall, Luo Yang pulled his hands back and held her tight.
Only, the position where his hands held her was slightly controversial—it was at An Yuying's ample bust.
"Sister An, be careful," Luo Yang said with concern.
Having run, An Yuying's body was warm and toasty.
Smooth as jade.
Holding An Yuying from behind, Luo Yang could feel her enticing body temperature.
"You bumped into my foot, and I wasn't even standing firm yet," she complained while gently shaking her delicate body.
"Sister An, the angle of your leg isn't wide enough," Luo Yang explained.
Upon seeing Luo Yang holding An Yuying without letting go, Tang Guihua's face revealed a hint of jealousy.
"Niu Zai, want some milk again?" Tang Guihua sneered coldly.
Regarding this milk-drinking business, some beauties were aware, and some were not.
Qin Piao laughed heartily.
Shuang Qiao just smiled with pursed lips, though they didn't understand what Tang Guihua meant by drinking milk.
Of course, Shuang Qiao could guess that when Tang Guihua talked about drinking milk, she was probably referring to Luo Yang wanting An Yuying's.
Luo Yang felt his ears heat up and chuckled, "Sister Guihua, focus on the Horse Stance."
Speaking of which, he nudged An Yuying's foot again.
This time An Yuying was prepared and stood firm.
However, when Luo Yang's hands pressed on An Yuying's fragrant shoulders, prompting her to squat slightly, she sat down again.
Luo Yang, quick to react, reached down swiftly with both hands, grasping her underarms, and his fingertips felt a pleasantly elastic softness.
"Sister An, take a break," Luo Yang suggested.
He knew forcing her to practice would risk injuring her.
"Why are you pressing so hard? I'm going to fall," An Yuying retorted with feigned annoyance.
"Sister An, you haven't squatted down," Luo Yang pointed out.
Actually, the only beauties who managed to perform a fairly standard Horse Stance were Hong Jiaxin and Zhang Jing.
Zhang Jing didn't hide the fact that she knew how to perform it.
Luo Yang hadn't yet taught her the Horse Stance. By asking the beauties to do it right away, he was testing whether Zhang Jing knew how to perform it.
Just as Luo Yang had expected, Zhang Jing executed the Horse Stance perfectly, clearly well-practiced.
Certainly, Zhang Jing was here to learn high-level martial arts.
She really didn't need to hide it.
Luo Yang wasn't sure whether Zhang Jing was a friend or foe, or if she was just there to disrupt things, using seeking a teacher as an excuse.
Before getting a clear understanding, Luo Yang wouldn't act rashly.
An Yuying went to sit down and rest on one side.
Immediately after, Luo Yang turned to instruct Tang Guihua. She, too, showed no sign of knowing how to perform a Horse Stance; she was merely standing there.
"Sister Guihua, is this how you perform a Horse Stance?" Luo Yang asked with a smile.
"I'm gonna rest first," Tang Guihua pouted.
Earlier, upon seeing Luo Yang so intimate with An Yuying, Tang Guihua felt jealous as well.
When Luo Yang moved behind Tang Guihua, she swung her elbow, trying to bump him away.
Even if Luo Yang allowed her to bump into him, she couldn't move him an inch.
"Sister Guihua, stretch your arms straight," Luo Yang instructed.
He grabbed Tang Guihua's arms and forcibly extended them.
At first, Tang Guihua didn't cooperate and resisted for a while, but soon a smile appeared at the corners of her mouth, and she let Luo Yang direct her.
After arranging Tang Guihua's arms, he used his foot to nudge hers again.
Tang Guihua, stronger than An Yuying, trembled in her legs but managed to stabilize herself.
However, when Luo Yang's hands pressed on her fragrant shoulders, urging her to squat slightly, she couldn't resist either and suddenly sat down.
Prepared for this, Luo Yang saw her body sinking and quickly reached down, grasping her underarms.
The elasticity and softness transmitted through his fingertips were warm and supple.
"Sister Guihua, why did you sit down too?" Luo Yang asked with a laugh.
Although she had slightly more stamina than An Yuying, she didn't have a clear advantage.
Sister Guihua hadn't recovered her strength either.
Her legs were still trembling, and as she attempted the Horse Stance, her legs would shake and easily gave way, sitting her down.
Both village beauties had no choice but to rest aside, soon followed by Fang Lin and Shuang Qiao.
Only Hong Jiaxin, Suyun, and Zhang Jing, the three beauties, continued to practice the Horse Stance.
Of them, Zhang Jing's stance was the most standard.
Suyun barely managed to mimic the Horse Stance; it looked right, but the essence was missing.
After a while, Luo Yang said, "Let's stop here for today, disperse, and continue tomorrow."
The beauties cheered and hopped away to wash up.
Only Zhang Jing said, "Master, you mentioned you would teach me high-level Kung Fu, can you teach me now?"
The moment Hong Jiaxin heard this, she also wanted to stay.
However, Luo Yang wanted to speak with Zhang Jing alone and said, "Class leader, I teach one-on-one, I'll teach you when we get back later."
Hong Jiaxin was sulky but obediently returned to Qin Piao's house.
The rising sun brought vibrant energy to the earth.
Breathing in the fresh air, Luo Yang couldn't feel happy.
If Zhang Jing's background wasn't cleared up, it could potentially lead to a serious problem at any moment.
If she weren't his disciple, he would have already expelled her from the village.
Now that they had a master-disciple relationship, Luo Yang could only plan to verify Zhang Jing's identity before taking further action.
Originally, Luo Yang wanted to pass the First Layer of Shadow Fist to Zhang Jing.
Since discovering last night that Zhang Jing was no ordinary person, he had to keep something in reserve; after all, there's an old saying that the new waves of the Yangtze River push the old waves forward, and it would be tragic if the disciple overtook the master.
During a recent negotiation with Wang Yunxiong in the county town, Luo Yang couldn't hide the emotions within his words; his true feelings showed through, and he didn't manage to get the better of Wang Yunxiong.
After thinking it over at home, Luo Yang felt that one must stay calm and composed in future endeavors to not reveal one's true intentions.
With this lesson learned, Luo Yang now kept an even keel.
"Sister Jing, don't rush, I'm considering which set of Kung Fu suits you best," Luo Yang said.
"Master, could you demonstrate a set of Kung Fu for me to broaden my horizons?" Zhang Jing sincerely asked.
Which master wouldn't be moved by a beautiful disciple's sincere request?
But Luo Yang couldn't afford to be swayed.
"Alright, I'll perform a set for you to see, either tonight or tomorrow," he said.
Changing the topic, he continued.
"By the way, Sister Jing, when can you bring your ID for me to register it?"
"I've called my family, and they will bring it by noon," she replied.
Zhang Jing having said that, Luo Yang didn't press her further.
Last night, Zhang Jing had sat cross-legged on the village outskirts' lawn, likely cultivating.
This morning, Luo Yang had carefully inspected the area but found nothing unusual.
Luo Yang wanted to test Zhang Jing's martial arts skills.
But if he suddenly made a move and she didn't respond, it would be quite awkward.
After some thought, Luo Yang came up with a plan.
In Hongyun Brigade, in terms of one-on-one capability, Luo Yang claimed to be second to none, and no one dared to claim to be the first.
Lang Yifeng would claim to be the fourth, but aside from Luo Yang, who could claim to be the third, there was no one else.
However, it wouldn't be appropriate to have Lang Yifeng cause trouble for Zhang Jing.
This matter needed more careful planning.
So Zhang Jing went back to the dormitory to wash up, and Luo Yang went to Qin Piao's house for his morning hygiene routine.
Zhang Jing would also have breakfast at Qin Piao's house.
When he returned to Qin Piao's house, Suyun had already gone to Dongfeng Middle School to make her rounds.
An Yuying and Tang Guihua had each gone home to check in, leaving only Hong Jiaxin, Fang Lin, Qin Piao, and Shuang Qiao in the house.
With Hong Jiaxin in her room, Luo Yang greeted the other beauties and slipped into her room.
Lately, because Luo Yang prevented her from seeing her parents, she always seemed to be in a huff when they met.
Just now, when she wanted to learn high-level Kung Fu and Luo Yang sent her back, she became even more displeased.
Now, seeing Luo Yang enter, Hong Jiaxin lay on her bed, turning her back to Luo Yang, not wanting to talk to him.
