Shen Qing learned that the martial arts in the county could now be divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower.
The lowest level of martial arts was like the "Nine Skills," which only focused on nourishing and training Qi and Blood.
This type of martial arts did nothing more than cultivate Qi and Blood, lacking other techniques or training methods.
One could say it was the foundation of the foundations of martial arts.
Even so, this martial art was stronger than those flashy but inferior ones.
As long as one cultivated enough Qi and Blood to reach the realm of Great Perfection, even a slender person could knock down four or five robust men with one punch.
If it didn't have such power, martial arts wouldn't be so valuable, and the court wouldn't be so strict about martial arts practices.
Those in high positions feared most that someone local might use martial arts for power, breaking laws with force.
