Chapter 73 Deputy Head of Dongchuan Martial Arts School
Chapter 73 Deputy Head of Dongchuan Martial Arts School
The third floor of the Dongchuan Martial Arts School was now empty.
Seeing that no one was around, the Xu family steward approached Chen Lie and lowered his posture.
"May I ask, young friend Chen Lie, where do you come from?"
Chen Lie simply said, "I'm just an ordinary martial arts student from Changdong City, with no special background."
No particular background?
The Xu family steward, of course, did not believe it.
He was well aware that there were class barriers in the path of martial arts. Ordinary martial arts students had their own circles, elite students had their own circles, and genius training camp students had their own circles.
Martial arts geniuses like Shen Miaowei, whose blood energy value reaches two thousand calories, naturally have their own circles.
This is a class barrier that cannot be easily broken down.
Shen Miaowei is a member of the powerful Shen family in Yunchuan. Her willingness to stand up for Chen Lie shows that Chen Lie has value that makes her willing to stand up for him.
"Young friend Chen Lie, what happened just now was indeed due to our martial arts school's poor hospitality. We hope you can forgive us. If possible, our martial arts school is willing to compensate you to express our apologies."
"Compensation?" Chen Lie nodded and said, "Alright, prepare two hundred catties of second-tier beast essence blood for me, plus ten second-tier beast cores."
"Two hundred catties of second-tier beast essence blood? Young friend, are you joking?" The Xu family steward was somewhat incredulous.
Shen Miaowei then said, "Two hundred catties of second-tier exotic beast meat? The Xu family is a grandmaster family; surely they can't afford it?"
The Xu family steward said, "The Xu family can certainly afford it, but I cannot grant the request due to my authority."
It should be noted that although a second-tier beast may weigh tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of kilograms and have thousands of kilograms of blood, the essence of the beast's blood within its bones is less than twenty kilograms per beast.
Five hundred catties of second-tier beast essence blood would require the meat of at least ten second-tier beasts, which is definitely beyond my authority.
Shen Miaowei said, "Then let someone with the authority come. As I just said, let the core figure of the Xu family with real power come."
Seeing how difficult Shen Miaowei was, the Xu family steward knew that he was not entertaining this powerful young master from the Shen family of Yunchuan. He simply nodded and said, "I will contact the host family right away. Please be patient and sit down to rest for a while."
With that, the Xu family steward arranged for each staff member to serve a cup of tea before leaving the scene.
On a chair at a table in the rest area, Yang Xixi held a cup of tea brought to her by a staff member of the martial arts school, feeling uneasy.
Are all martial arts geniuses with the potential to become grandmasters this tough?
They didn't even respect the Dongchuan Martial Arts School and insisted on confronting them.
In her memory, no one ever dared to cause trouble at the martial arts school. Almost every martial arts student who came to the school knew about its background.
Anyone who dares to cause trouble here is asking for trouble.
Although she was just a student, she had heard that the head of the Dongchuan Martial Arts School was the president of the Dongchuan Provincial Martial Arts Association, a grandmaster-level martial artist.
Even if a powerful scion of Yunchuan is arrogant in Yunchuan, he is still only in Yunchuan.
This is Dongchuan, a thousand miles away from Yunchuan.
"S-senpai, maybe we should just forget about it?"
Yang Xixi couldn't help but offer some advice.
Chen Lie said, "Someone has already stood up for me, how can we let it go now?"
Shen Miaowei looked at Chen Lie and smiled slightly. Originally, she was too embarrassed to ask Chen Lie for advice on spiritual power cultivation. Now that she was standing up for him, even if it was a forced act, he probably wouldn't try to fool her when explaining spiritual power to her, right?
Having studied the path of spiritual cultivation, she understood how crucial the guidance of a master was at critical moments when cultivating spiritual power, which could potentially save her more than half a year of arduous training.
"But if we keep pushing like this, won't the martial arts school retaliate later?" Yang Xixi couldn't help but ask.
Shen Miaowei said, "No, that won't happen."
Not long after, a middle-aged man arrived at the martial arts school.
As soon as the important person entered, the Xu family steward hurriedly went to greet him.
"Mr. Xu, you've arrived?"
The middle-aged man nodded and asked, "What exactly happened?"
The Xu family steward quickly explained the whole story to the middle-aged man.
After understanding the whole story, the middle-aged man nodded and asked, "You mean, a member of the Shen family of Yunchuan? Their Qi and Blood value is over two thousand calories, and they want an explanation from our Xu family?"
The Xu family steward nodded repeatedly and said, "That young man named Chen Lie has already set his conditions, asking us to prepare ten second-tier exotic beast cores for him, plus two hundred catties of second-tier exotic beast essence blood."
"This is outrageous! These things add up to over a hundred million star coins. The Shen family of Yun Chuan?"
Although the Shen family's Lingfeng Group is famous throughout eight provinces and is considered by outsiders to be far superior to our Xu family, they are ultimately both families of grandmasters.
"Even if a junior member of the Shen family is exceptionally talented, it's truly wishful thinking for him to try and extort money from my Xu family. Does he think my Xu family is easy to bully?"
The middle-aged man snorted coldly.
"Mr. Xu, that young girl is no ordinary member of the Shen family. She claims to be the successor appointed by the Shen family's grandmaster," said the Xu family steward.
The key person frowned: "At only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a blood energy value of over two thousand calories, he is far superior to his peers in the Xu family. Indeed, it is no wonder that he has been designated as the successor by the Grandmaster."
But my martial arts school didn't offend her, so why should she demand that the school compensate us with hundreds of millions of star coins worth of martial arts resources?
Did you fail to clearly explain the specific details of the incident?
The Xu family steward hurriedly said, "Absolutely not. I was there and described the whole thing word for word."
However, according to the Shen family themselves, the young man named Chen Lie was a genius who even the governor of Yunchuan Province couldn't help but humble himself and befriend.
Since she's the successor to the Shen family, her words shouldn't imply she won't be on maternity leave, right?
"Nonsense! What kind of entity is a provincial governor?"
Even if that young man had exceptional martial arts talent, enough to earn the provincial governor's praise, it would never be enough to make the governor humble himself and submit to him!
The Xu family steward stood before the middle-aged man, bowing slightly, but remained silent.
"Okay, take me to see it!"
The Xu family steward responded and then led the middle-aged man to the third floor of the martial arts hall.
Upon reaching the third floor, the Xu family steward led the middle-aged man to the rest area.
The middle-aged man arrived at the rest area, his sharp gaze sweeping over Chen Lie and the others before finally settling on Shen Miaowei.
"I am Xu Renchuan, the vice master of Dongchuan Martial Arts School."
Shen Miaowei stood up from her seat and faced Xu Renchuan, showing no inferiority.
"Shen Miaowei, Honorary President of Yunchuan Lingfeng Group."
"Um?"
Xu Renchuan was surprised when he heard Shen Miaowei introduce herself.
Even if a successor has been internally designated in a large family in Dongchuan, it is still an internal matter. The purpose is to promote competition among the younger generation of the family and to make the successor feel a sense of crisis so that he will work harder.
Shen Miaowei has already become the honorary president of Lingfeng Group, which shows that her position as the successor of the Shen family is unshakable, making her the number one in the Shen family, far ahead of the second place.
