Time flies, and half a year passes in a flash.

In the courtyard of the Changhe Gang in Ping County, Bianzhou, Xin Dynasty, there were more than ten half-grown boys with strong upper bodies, clenched their fists and squatting on their waists, and their bodies sank with rhythmic sounds as they breathed.

Zhang Ming was also among these young men. His appearance was a little different from half a year ago. Of course, the bigger change lies in his temperament.

When he had to follow his country's foster parents to serve the crops, even though he was healthy, he couldn't help but feel a little cautious in his body. He was far less confident than the current daily life of eating and drinking and tempering his body.

Papa, two clappings sounded, and the boys ended their efforts together, stood up slowly, and let out a long breath.

"Yes, you haven't slacked off for half a year of practice," Su Wenping looked at it, but there was not much change from half a year ago. He walked in front of the teenagers and said slowly, "Now the basics are barely enough."

"After a while, everyone comes to me to get a piece of paper, recognize words, do the calculation of the increase and division. After passing, listen to my instructions to play two sets of basic long fists for me. If I think it is OK, I can teach you one of the four martial arts I know today!"

After saying that, he walked to the main hall with four doors open in the north of the courtyard and sat down.

And after his words, although the teenagers have become calmer in the past year, they still cannot stop their minds from swaying. Even those rich teenagers who claim to be knowledgeable during their rest periods can't help but feel itchy.

Most of them are the ancestors of their own sects. Baotang controls various industries, or the senior children of small gangs with close relationships. They have the most interactions with the world, and they also know the beautiful scene of the martial arts of the world that can be used to open monuments, crack stones, fly eaves and walls.

After a short rest, a rich child came forward to accept his exam at the school.

Of course, the tutoring of a family with a background is good since childhood. It doesn’t take the interlude learning in the past six months. It is a piece of cake for them to learn literacy and break up texts and add and divide the calculations. Their elders and those who are in the martial arts world are also very knowledgeable. Otherwise, they would not understand the secrets and would not know how to calculate the tricks. Wouldn’t there be no place to bury the bones?

And their wealthy family background certainly allows them to enjoy high-level medicinal baths at any time. In the past six months, they have generally been half a head taller than the poor teenagers;

The private teaching of experienced coaches has benefited them a lot. They are just a little tricky when practicing basic long boxing routines. Even if you learn and use it, it is not difficult to deal with others.

Sure enough, six rich children passed the exam one by one, and each of them happily held a piece of paper to the edge of the yard to check.

The other teenagers outside who had not passed the exam all recalled what they had learned in the past as if they were facing a great enemy.

After about half an hour, Su Wenping called Zhang Ming's name. Zhang Ming took a deep breath, walked forward steadily into the hall, and bowed a long time.

Su Wenping looked up at him, took a piece of paper from the stack of papers in front of his desk, waved to him, Zhang Ming understood and took it respectfully, and wrote a total of ten passages from right to left. He knew that he needed to add sentences and read them one by one, and gave answers one by one, so he said in a moment:

"There are eighteen insects and seven chickens now. Each chicken eats one insect. How many insects are there?"

He raised his head and saw Su Wenping looking at him, then lowered his eyelids, paused and continued: "This should be divided, and there are eleven more."

Then read: "There are eighteen insects and seven chickens now. Each chicken eats two insects. How many insects are there?"

"We should first use the method of doubling to find the number of insects eaten by chickens, and then use the method of division. The remaining insects should be four."

"Now there is a rope, six feet long, it is folded twice in half. How long is the rope after folding?"

"This method of double-dividing is used. Double-dividing is twice, and the rope is one foot long and five inches long."

“…”

Zhang Ming answered all ten questions in total, without any surprises. In fact, the key and difficult part of learning cultural knowledge in the past six months lies in the language system of another world. As for mathematics, it is not difficult, but the difficulty of elementary school is just an irrefutable truth. If you learn it well, you can use it to travel through the heavens and all worlds.

Su Wenping smiled on his face and nodded, "I heard from that boy Wu Lai that you passed the introductory school exam among the people he brought, and you were able to read at that time, which is rare; of course, your way of getting started is not a secret in our eyes. Although you take shortcuts, you are also smart. I am very optimistic about you."

Zhang Ming immediately recalled the black-clad disciple who brought them to the door when he entered the day and asked me about the gang's corner flag embroidery. Wu Lai should be the name of the disciple at that time, but the memories flashed by, but it still did not delay him even saying that he dared not.

Su Wenping waved his hand and said, "You can play two more sets of long fists to show me, and play the fourth and fifth sets."

These two sets should be two sets that have changed a lot in the basic long fist and are quite difficult. Zhang Ming corrected his mind, put away the little joy that arose in his heart and started punching meticulously.

"Okay, okay." After a moment, Su Wenping smiled and said, obviously Zhang Ming had a good foundation. He fully demonstrated the agility of these two sets of long fists, and had reached at least a rough level.

Zhang Ming bowed his fists and bowed, and couldn't help feeling a little restless. According to what he said before, if he passed the assessment, he would soon obtain martial arts skills. It would be worth half a year of hard work. This is his greatest expectation for this world!

Su Wenping pinched his beard and shook his head and smiled, "Boy, look at your excited look! Since that's the case, I will certainly not go back on my word. Do you already have a preference among those four martial arts?"

Zhang Ming nodded. He had made many considerations about this issue in the past six months. At this moment, he naturally palleted his decision: "Thank you, I will choose "Show the Body and Cloud"!"

He first ruled out two of the four martial arts. After all, sword techniques require the use of swords, and the use of swords requires the material of the sword. He is now penniless. Even if he can give a sword, he will probably not be a good thing.

There is another skill that he asked about from the children of the rich. Not to mention that you must first master the major acupoints and joints of the human body, which consumes a lot of energy. Just talking about the strength and physical fitness required for this skill, Zhang Ming may have to take a long time to meet the requirements. After all, his family is poor and he only eats better in half a year.

Then there is only "Showing the Body Clouds". This is a light skill, which probably fits the simple plot of Zhang Ming running away if he can't beat it. At least his life-saving ability has been greatly improved, so he did not hesitate at this time.

Su Wenping didn't ask much, took out a page of paper from his arms, folded it in half and handed it to Zhang Ming, and then said: "This is the first level of Zhan Shi Yun Zong. It will be destroyed after he is memorized. Although this skill is superficial, if it is a rumor, once it is tracked down, it is not something that can be passed with slight punishment. You must remember it!"

"You come to our yard for advice less than three minutes every day, and I will naturally teach you the meaning. As for the exercises every morning, you can practice them yourself in the future, and you don't have to come here every day."
