115 - Fine wine and dine

Spoiler

Jianhan, you can really drink!

I've never complained about excessive alcohol. I'm more curious about you. How well can you drink?

I might not hold my liquor so well, but I can certainly drink a few.

Excellent. Cheers!

Cheers!

Once more!

Yea verily!

Again!

Yeah! Urp. (Oh man, I think I've had too much, I'm not feeling well.)

Come on, one more time!

Sure.. one.. one more.

I-uh

HA HA HA HA! Fantastic! You're a bold man just like myself. Got to say, I've found a good friend today. Let's drink again next time, mate. I've got to go now! Bye!

Amazingly the only downside is -10 to Master Wuxia's affection. And I got +5 Liquor.
The week after, Xiaoyao Valley gets a visitor.

Yes, miss! You're at the right place!(Oh! Such a lovely girl!)

My name's Wang Rong and I'm here to see Mr. Wuxia Zi. Will you, handsome boy, introduce me to him?

You want to see my master? OK, come with me!

To a dark alley. And smell this rag. Does it smell like chloroform?

Thank you!

Oh! She's here! Let her in!

(Wow, he's expecting her?)

Thank you! Master Wuxia, I'm here to pay my respects!

??? (Who's she to him? A distant relative perhaps?)

Stand up, child.

Thank you, master!

I've read the letter from your father, so you'll start learning here tomorrow!

Yes, master!

Master, we've come to answer your summons.

Do we have a guest?

Nice timing you two! Let me introduce all of you. This is your new sister-in-training, Rong'er, and Rong'er, these three are...

I know who they are! They're Gu Yuexuan, Jing Ji and third disciple, Shi Di Fen.

Oh? What, you already knew?

Of course lah! They're accomplished students under the tutelage of a great master! Master and seniors' reputations are very high within the martial arts world so it's not really strange for me to know them.

Heheh, yes it's true! The best way to learn is to learn from the best! Hahah, such a polite child you are. Haha...

I'm just telling the truth~

Hahahah!

You really flatter me. Welcome to Xiaoyao Valley, sister.

Welcome, sister-in-training! (Pfft! She's barely here for 10 minutes and already the old man has fallen for her charms. I should learn from her.)

Nice to meet you all. How about if I prepare dinner for you all right now?

No need for that, just let this guy do it.

Huh? Why me?

Of course it's your business!

But why?

Don't worry, just let me get to work. I promise I won't let master and brothers down!

Oh? Very well. Let us sample your work then.

Let me help.

There's no need for that, I can handle this myself. Why don't you all have a good rest instead? Dinner will be ready soon!

She's a good child! Seems my fear is unnecessary...

Fear? Master, what are you worried about?

Er, nothing!

(How suspicious.)

A short while later...

Thanks for waiting! Tonight's main course is lamb fried with vegetables.

Sister-in-training, thank you for your hard work.

It smells delicious!

Let's dig in!

Everyone took a spoonful and was stunned. Master Wuxia was the first to speak.

Oh! W-what an exquisite flavor!

One by one, the rest follows...

(...how can eating this lead to such an illusion?)

I.. I saw the sheep and heard the bleating, the sheep came back to life!

Hell! That's gross!

My, my, I've heard of poetry in paintings but never thought I'd see art in food. Rong'er is really good at cooking!

Hehe! You can leave the daily cooking to me from now on, if you wish!

HMMM! (We can have it everyday..!?!)

Ah! The soup must be ready, let me go get it.

The soup must be hot, let me get it instead!

Thank you, Yuexuan! Oh, I left something in the kitchen too, let us go together.

How considerate of Yuexuan!

...

Look at this guy's weird face. He must be imagining wicked thoughts!

Nuh uh! It's you who has wicked thoughts!

Pfft. You know what I'm thinking?

Must be. Since you already know what I'm thinking.

Both of you stop thinking!

The soup's here! Enjoy everyone!

116 - Mass Tacs

Spoiler

Master Wuxia, this is! It's the legendary-

Yes! This is the legendary Zhenlong Weiqi Manual! This manual was made by a predecessor of my Sect. For years, he invited experts all over the world to solve it, but no one succeeded.

Eventually a master from Shaolin Temple, aka my grandmaster Xuzhu Zi, solved it by chance.

However, the record of the solution by Xuzhu Zi was not passed down. What a pity, sigh...

Fret not, Master! We might be able to solve this. I'm eager to give it a try!

Master, you seem to be in a good mood. I'm not very good at playing weiqi, I might make a fool of myself.

Says the champion of the last Luoyang Weiqi Tournament. Who would believe that?

It's because an expert like you did not participate.

(I didn't know Yuexuan had this talent.)

Solving Zhenlong is the dream of everyone who has learned weiqi. You two are in great luck! Had you come a little later, your master and I might have already solved it.

Jing Ji! You came just in time! They're acting so strangely!

*Sigh* one more thing, I'm a smart man who is adept in music, chess, calligraphy and painting but I somehow have a disciple who only knows how to fight and can barely use his brain...

Hey! Who are you talking about, huh?!

Oooo, I'm so miserable!

Idiots. I got no time for this. Eh? You're all just playing weiqi? What the heck? You're all so distressed over this stupid board game manual? Boring! Why not just place the stone wherever you like?!

Eh!!!?!

..no way??

He's killing his own stones? Ji, you put it in a death spot.. Why?! WHY!?!?!- Wait!

Despite the loss, the white player is making a come back!

??

He made it! HE DID IT! He deciphered Zhen Long Weiqi Manual! That's definitely a resurrection play from the verge of death! His move went against every rule in weiqi. Only a fool would have ever placed their piece there!

So this means Jing Ji is one?

HEY!

That's it! People who know the rules would never make that move, but that's exactly what it took to solve this problem: to tear apart before rebuilding. Ha-ha, man we've been tricked by this manual.

This manual is dangerous, the better your understanding of weiqi is, the more likely you'll fall to its traps. In the worst case, you'll lose your sanity! We couldn't have made the breakthrough if Ji hadn't made that random move. If that had gone on a while longer, we might've... *sigh*

Yes, we were all saved by Ji.

Bah! I don't understand a single thing you just said. Tsch! Boring! See you!

Yuexuan, Di Fen remember this lesson: tear down before building, fail before succeeding. This can also be applied to martial arts training.

117 - Bitter Sweet dumplings

Spoiler

Miss Xiangyun! Today is the Festival of Lanterns. Master sends me to deliver sweet dumplings to the seven sages!

Ahh, so that's why the city is so lively with all the decorations lately. I guess it's that time of the year.

You're so busy that you don't even know the festival is coming?

Should everyone just be like you who eats all day with nothing to do?

Eh? But wasn't it you who asked why I'm here instead of practicing martial arts?

Haha, enough jest. I've sold out my medicines for today. Since I'm free now, let's go check out the lantern festival in town. Will you accompany me?

OK, I'd love to. Shall we leave now?

Look at how impatient you are. Alright. Let's go now. I'll cook you something when we get back.

OK. (Why does she look so happy? Eh... she suddenly become so adorable.)

Xiangyun, look! That pair of lanterns looks very special. It has a lot of small magpie lanterns surrounding it. So gorgeous. What's so special about it?

Well, I know you're no scholar, but surely you know the tale of the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd?

Uh.. what's that?

Are you serious? Fine. It is said the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd can only meet in the night on July 7th once a year. Their reunion was stopped by the Milky Way. The magpies in the sky are so touched by their love, they made a bridge to help them reunite.

Wow. So that's the origin of Chinese Valentine's Day... that's very touching.

So desperate for company?

Of course! Who would like being alone on Valentine's Day! That's so pathetic.

You know there's another story about the Chinese Valentine's day. It's rumored that the Weaver Girl is beautiful and smart with a lot of skills and gifts. On Valentine's Day, if you beg the Weaver Girl for ingenuity, you can replace your clumsiness with ingenuity. That's why it's called the Begging Festival.

What I'm saying is, even if you don't do needle work and such, it never hurts to give it a try. We'll see if it works for you.

Ugh, you're making fun of me again.

Hehe~I didn't mean to. You're not that bad.

Eh, Miss Shen, there are some fun competitions there, shall we take a look?

Geez, you're more of a child than me. Alright, let's join in the fun.

Great! Which game do you want to join in, the Lantern Riddle or dumpling eating competition?

Eh.. didn't he just say that the dumpling eating competition is for lovers? We're not- it's so embarassing. Maybe the riddle contest is a better idea.

Umm.. ok. There's no need to rush.

Women.

Huh? Why do you look upset?

N-nothing at all. I said you might not be smart enough to win the prize! Haha!

Hmph! I'll prove myself!

Good luck!

 

[Darth Roxor]

Shinji Jinji gets more annoying as the game progresses.

Dunno, I feel kinda bad for him. Poor guy just can't get a break.

118 - A cloud to rest on

Spoiler

Ahahah that was a free +1 Comprehension for every right answer.

As long as you're happy.

Look, tonight's a full moon. It's so beautiful. Just like a pellet of silvery sinseng.

To me it looks more like a green bean cake.

Maybe in Uncle Ju Sou's opinion, it looks more like the white piece in weiqi?

The same thing can mean differently depending on each individual. Actually, it's just a moon, not a pellet, chess piece, or green bean cake. This teaches us that we should be generous about others' opinion...

Zzzzz...

I rarely talk about life's truth. That's so mean!

How can a dummy like you have such a profound view in life? Then, you should be generous about what I said about you, too.

Ah, Xiangyun, you're born to bully me.

Yawn.

Tired? Want to try my new energy boosting pills?

You idiot. How can you fall asleep at such a crucial time as this?

You must be tired.

Zzzz...

Fine.

I will lend you my shoulder.

Yeah but thunderbombs are nice in combat too.

NONSENSE!

Heheh!

Don't laugh at me! You read it!

I wouldn't, even if I could.

I believe it should be, 'to spit forth like the dragon pouring water, ten thousand horses galloping.'

Correct. Do you know the meaning?

Do tell, please.

This is about the secret of attack. Conserve your strength until the best possible moment, and when that moment arrives, unleash everything in one move to win. Keep that in mind and reflect upon it.

Ji has done well at this. He combines his broadsword with swordsmanship to launch multiple, simultaneous, and devastating deep strikes that leaves his opponents no room for counter attack. With this, he attained great fame over the years.

(Whoa, Master is praising Ji!)

Humph.

(He's clearly thrilled, but acts like he doesn't care. Haha, what an immature brat.)

Students, I'm available today. Let's spar. Don't hold back.

119 - Fist, Blade, Art

Spoiler

 

[abnaxus]

Consider using lime dust on OP mothafuckas.

 

[RK47]

120 - The Eventful Blade

Spoiler

Humph! I knew that already!

(Ji seems to be very pleased of master's praise. He always talks back to the master but I think he respects master very much, deep inside.)

I think the meaning of your teachings matches perfectly with Xiaoyao Broadsword Techniques.

Exactly! Jing Ji likes to attack with broadsword and defend with his sword. Look at how he attacks! It's just like the power of 10,000 horses galloping, which is the essence of Xiaoyao Broadsword Technique.

Your broadsword techniques are getting better, it's time I help you improve it to a higher level.

??? Huh?

This Wuji Broadsword Technique comes from 'A Happy Excursion' by Zhuangzi: Outside infinity, there's endless infinity. The attack is like a never-ending wave. Infinite. I'll teach you right now. Please focus.

+6000 EXP in Blades. Just like that
+New Blade Art unlocked

Sometime later that month...

I injured my arm after autographing 10,000 times recently. It feels numb.

That I can help with. You will feel better after I relieve the pressure on your Jianjing acupoint. Come on, let me do it for you.

Haha, they gave me too much credit lah.

Haha, I'll come back to you if I have the same problem. Thanks a lot.

New Title and +10 Rep.

121 - Master's Girl?

Spoiler

Gah! I can't take it anymore! Senior, I give up. You're too good.

Oh, it's Miss Qin! Hongshang!

Ah, Di Fen. What a coincidence!

Who's your friend?

A very powerful senior, I just lost to her on a breath-holding competition. She could actually hold longer than 30 minutes, it's so amazing!

You're still young. I believe you'll do the same when you reach my age.

(Her age? Hold old is this woman? I can see her white hair, but I can't guess her real age.)

Senior, let me introduce Shi Di Fen, one of my best friends. He has done a lot for me.

Nice to meet you, senior.

Shi, your internal style seems to originate from Taoist sect?

Your insight is really sharp, senior. How could you know that?

After an extended period of training, one can distinguish another person's internal style's source from just his appearance or breath.

Such as the Vajra Sect Disciple from Western Regions. Their training belongs to Hegemonic style, so when they completed their training, their head will have a depressed fracture.

Similar tell-tale distinctions also surfaces from the Violet Dawn technique from Huashan Sect. If they achieve the highest level of this technique, their faces will radiate with some kind of violet mist and their breathing becomes deeper, so where an ordinary person needs ten, they only need to take a single breath to match.

According to your bright eyes and strong vital essence, as well as your breathing, I'm guessing your master must be Wuxia Zi from Xiaoyao Valley.

I don't even.

It's true. I am the third disciple of our master from Xiaoyao Valley.

In the past, I was on good terms with your master. As for the breathing competition, it's a means of practicing Trance of Convalescence. Would you like to compete with me?

Sounds good to me. But please have mercy on me, senior.

Some time later...

Huff...ha...whoa..that nearly killed me! How long did I do?

You were great, you held on longer than I did!

Mmm, you are worthy to be the disciple of Wuxia Zi. Even Wuxia could not accomplish this much when he was young.

Thank you for your praise, old lady. Your inner strength is unfathomable. I'm totally not your match, I admire you.

You and your master, you two are so similar when he was young...

Old Lady, it seems that you are well acquainted with my master?

The old lady sighed as she gazes at the two and changed the topic abruptly.

Boy, I hope both of you could understand this saying: cherish the present. You two are well-matched, that means karma, it's not a small thing, both of you should grasp the moment, do not let yourself feel regret in the future.

Senior! What are you saying all the sudden!

Did I say something wrong?

Never mind her, Di Fen. That child is extremely shy. I thought she genuinely likes you because I've never seen her being so friendly with other men.

Old Lady, how long have you known her?

Our Tianshan Sect has a rapport with ThunderHall. You could even say I watched her grow.

(I did not expect her to be a member of Tianshan Sect.)

Later, back at Xiaoyao Valley...

Master, take it easy. I just met your old friend. She's very beautiful. Master, when did you meet that kind of beauty? I never heard you mention her before.

W-what? A beautiful Senior? A friend of mine? What does she look like?

She looks really well in her years. She has beautiful silver hair and has an air of nobility. I could also smell some kind of fragrance...

She can even tell I am your disciple by just my breath alone!

WHAT! It could be! Probably! Most likely! Where did you meet her!

I saw her by the lakeside. (Why's he so anxious?)

Lakeside! XIAO XIAO! IT'S REALLY YOU, ISN'T IT! You came to visit me! WAIT FOR ME! I'M COMING!

Wow. He's gone just like that. It's rare to see him so excited like that. Maybe they have a long history. Eh... better not ask. Don't want to make things awkward.

 

[RK47]

122 - Old wounds

Spoiler

How long since we last met?

The last time we met each other was the day I got married. It has been more than 47 years and 7 months.

It's so long ago.

Yes, it's been a really long time.

He Aotian, that bastard. I thought he would bring you happiness. I never thought he'd die so young.

It's must been hard, living by yourself.

Even though Aotian died so young, our Tianshan Sect has a lot of people, so I didn't feel too lonely. And now his brother Wei Feng is a perfect leader. His wife Yi Lan treats me like her real sister and her daughter Juan is haughty but kind...

Those years... I lived happily...

Sister-in-training.

I felt regret everyday at the start.. if I could have been much braver... and I...

Shi, do not dwell on the past. I hoped you would find happiness too. Since Xuanming Zi betrayed our master and surrendered to the Cult of Tianlong... I am worried for you all the time.

You are a kind person. You'd sacrifice yourself for other people's happiness. (Even if the sacrifice,..sometimes can be very painful.)

I am fine. I have three apprentices, they're all good children. Yuexuan is a benevolent man, his name is famed throughout the martial arts world and has brought nothing but honor to our sect's name.

Ji'er is rebellious, but I know deep down in his heart, he is very kind. He just doesn't know how to express his feelings.

You've met Di Fen, since you've praised him, I don't need to say more of him.

I treat them all like my sons. At this age, to have these apprentices.. what more need I ask for?

Shi, don't you remember in the past? We always walked on the forest tracks. You asked me to sing a ditty for you and you always picked beautiful flowers and gently lay them on my head...

How can I forget? I'll always remember.

Yeah, right.

 

[RK47]

123 - Caution to the Wind

Spoiler

Shi. There's a lot of guards within and their leaders are extremely dangerous. Don't be reckless. Caution is key.

Alright!

We got this. Sorry, bro. But I feel like bashing their skulls for mad combat exp.

Man, I dunno why Jing Ji doesn't come along. Oh well, more for me!

I think this broadsword style is meant to be AOE-focused. Since every strike seems to be a 2-hex piercing straight types. It's 'ok' just not what I need right now. The bandits have this weird internal art that heals adjacent ally per turn. But it really doesn't matter cause we're doing tons of damage to them. More than they can heal.

126 - Mission Complete

Spoiler

There's someone locked in the dungeon - oh it's Shi Yi of the Sea Shark Clan!

Give it up you two! Stop resisting arrest!

This kid told us to surrender! Ahahah!

Let's show him true evil! Hahaha!

The two bosses aren't that big of a problem.

Shi Yi got a critical. That means happy times with rage.

*sobs*

That's that. We return to Xiaoyao Valley to deliver the good news.

Master, I also played a part!

Hahah, good work both of you. Here, some medicine. Just in case.

Man, we didn't need any back then. But thanks, Master.

 

[abnaxus]

Around this point the game goes full Google translate.

 

[RK47]

127 - What's Rong?

Spoiler

Morning. Looks like we won't see Wang Rong again today.

She's not going to train with us again? What is she busy with?

Who knows! She's been here for more than ten days but all she does is spend seven days visiting Wangyou Valley with master, and another two days mining with Hu. The day before yesterday, she planted flower and sang with master, yesterday she painted and play some music for master. As for today, I've got no idea what she is up to. What kind of training is that?

Wow.. you know a lot about her. (What a stalker.)

Oh! I passed by Master's study just now, I think he's playing chess with someone. Could it be her?

Let's have a look.

Aiyaaa.. Master! I lost for the seventh time!

Cheer up, child. Your skill level for your age isn't that bad. Just put more effort in your practice and eventually I can't beat you anymore.

Yeah! Master! You should teach me more. I'll beat Master Ju Sou with the moves you taught me!

Heheh! Good, very good! You have ambition!

Master, we've been playing for a long time, you must be tired. Let me give you a massage.

Why thank you, Rong Er. My shoulders are kind of sore.

You're welcome! Master, is this level of strength okay?

Oh, just nice! I feel so comfortable!

Oh, greetings my disciples. See how thoughtful Wang Rong is! You guys should learn from her.

No. Way.

You little brat! You only know how to talk back!

Humph! See, Wang Rong is such a sensible girl. Why won't you learn something from her?

Yes, master.

(NO. WAY!)

Master, you must be thirsty. I'll make you some tea.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Off you go then.

Alright. I'll be back soon.

Master. We have something to ask you.

Go ahead.

We remember you promised Wang Rong's father that you would train her personally. At least a week has passed, yet she's still not training. Why is this so?

Did you forget?

POW!

You little brat, always no respect for your elders! I did not forget! But I just couldn't persuade her. Just like what her father said...

What did he say?

Firstly, do you know who Wang Rong's father is?

Uh.. no.

Her father's name is Wang Hu.

Wang Hu? The one who is famous for his Berserker Wind Broadsword Techniques?

Yes! Wang Rong is the only daughter of the family, therefore he wants to pass on the family's blade arts to her, but she has no interest in martial arts at all. She always tries her best to avoid training. Her father decided to ask for my help to inspire her. But it looks like I've failed, too...

Hm! Wait! I've got it!

How about you three train Wang Rong?

Ah?

She's around your age, maybe you can influence her more easily.

Pshaw! This shouldn't be too hard at all.

Right on! Becoming a martial arts master is everyone's dream! She'll know that soon!

We'll do our best, since you've entrusted us with this task.

Hehehe, great. Then I shall let you take charge. (Finally, I don't have to be the bad guy. Phew!)

Master, here's your tea!

Rong er, I have something to tell you. I assigned your three seniors to train you. From tomorrow onward, you shall go train with them.

Eh! But Master...

No buts! Mmm, this tea is really nice.

Hm! Wang Rong, I'll show you no mercy. So give me your best.

Yeah! I'll do my best too. (Hehe! Finally we're training together!)

Take it easy. Just think of it like a study session. See you tomorrow morning, sister-in-training.

...

The next day...

Uncomfortable? Where do you feel uncomfortable?

Well... how to say it. Girls are.. you know...

Don't look at me, I don't know!

And you have 100 medicine.

Could you explain it to me?

Every month, there are some days girls feel very bad. They might have a pale face, sweat a lot and painful stomachache. Therefore, no physical training is possible.

But you seem quite well at the moment!

No, I don't! Ow ow~ I have a stomachache. My heartbeat is becoming weaker. I'm so dizzy~

It must be very serious!

Let me get you a doctor.

Senior-brother, there's no need for that. A day's rest or two is enough. But it's hard to say! Sometimes it lasts about a fortnight, another times it will stop at the end of the month for one or two days and then return again next month. It's quite irregular.

Really? If so, then there would be no time left for training.

Ow...it hurts. I feel terrible. You know Gods will punish those who are so cruel to push a girl to train in such a condition.

Yeah, Gods will punish people for cruelty!

Why are you saying that while staring at me?

I think we better leave Sister-in-training alone. Let her have a good rest.

Thank you, Yuexuan.

Outside, the three disciples discuss the recent discovery.

Beats me. I'm not a girl.

How about we go ask master?

Good idea!

Ah...eh... well. Everyone suffers some pain sometimes. It's perfectly normal.

But what about the girl's source of pain? It's happening to her every month. We boys don't have them. How do you explain that?

It's... ah! Damn! I almost forget! I have an appointment with the Seven Sages today. Bye bye!

I think he doesn't know either.

Looks like we're just gonna train without her today.

128 - Some chest rubbing might help

Spoiler

I've also consulted Dr. Miracle about it and confirmed the same thing. Rong, let's go train!

(Xiangyun gave me a slap when I asked her this question...)

Guys, she looks really strange today!

Hey! Her face and lips are turning pale. And she's sweating.

Oh my, really!

I see! She lied last time and this time it's for real?

Uuuuu...

It looks like you're in a bad shape now. You need to rest today!

Hmph! I know the date now. So don't try that same trick on us next time!

Have a good rest, then. We'll leave you alone.

I'll go to Dr. Miracle and get some prescriptions.

What! Why??!

Dude, Rong's sick. One of us should step up.

But why am I the one?

That's not important, man. It's the duty of her seniors to take care of her. Oh, don't forget to serve her meds okay? Don't forget! Ta ta!

 

[RK47]

129 - No Rong. No Dinner.

Spoiler

Odd. She's not here. Rong is always in the kitchen this time of the day.

Huh. Why are you here? Where's Rong?

Dunno. She's already gone when I arrived.

Di Fen, Ji, why are you both here? Where's Wang Rong?

How would I know? I only know that I'm starving right now and dinner's not ready.

That is so strange. Let's look around, see if there are any clues.

! I found a pool of blood on the ground!

I found a pot of boiled rice, some roast pork, and eggs.

Don't talk nonsense. Rice with roast pork and egg is basically char siu rice. What deadly, what ecstasy?

Don't be fooled. She's a good cook who stays till she finished the dishes. There's only one reason for her to leave before earlier. There must be an ingredient missing. I'm guessing onions! Therefore Wang Rong must be lost somewhere in the forest!

But how do you explain the blood? Maybe she's unwell and went to her bedroom for some rest.

Isn't it animal blood?

You may be right. Here, why don't you have a taste and see if it's really animal blood?

Uh.. no, thank you.

Hmph! I'll look for her in her bedroom. Does she intend to have me starve to death!

I shall search the valley for her.

Brother, did you not hear what I say just now? Rong must be somewhere in the forest.

I trust you in my heart, Di Fen. But think your assumption has no basis in logic. Anyway, with the three of us searching different places, we will have more chance of finding her.

 

[RK47]

130 - Can't be Rong

Spoiler

The search begins...

Eh? I thought you don't know kung fu, how did you climb up that high tree?

So I was right after all!

What are you talking about?

Nothing. Don't worry! Let me get you down from there.

Be careful. The snakes are still around!

I think I underestimated this encounter a lot.
I mean they're just a pair of snakes, I wiped out a bandit stronghold, how hard can it be?

When the snakes land 2 different attacks that have poison debuff, you're pretty much screwed. With two snakes, the penalties are doubled.

That's something to think about. It's funny, I never thought this is a 'close call' encounter until they start critting me at every turn.

Ouch, my feet are numb after standing too long on the tree. AhhH!! *she falls into the river below*

Aww, I sprained my ankle from the fall. Aiya, what an unlucky day!

Hey, get on my back. I'll carry you home.

It's all my fault... always landing seniors in trouble.

Don't say that. We're all master's disciples. We help each other.

Don't you have that poison phoenix internal style? Can you switch those in battle?

 

[RK47]

Don't you have that poison phoenix internal style? Can you switch those in battle?

Yeah, but I'd have to waste a turn switching internal style.
By the time i realized the poison impact was pretty severe, I was already halfway to butchering them.

131 - The Brothers try again and again

Spoiler

Eh...

Sister-in-training, it's not good to stay indoors for too long. The breeze is gentle and the sunshine is bright. It's the perfect weather for training and it'll help you maintain good health.

I understand.

Finally! Let's go!

Listen up! The horse stance is the basis of all martial arts technique. First, you do this!

Ha ha, it's really cute.

Such an adorable pairing!

...Hn! *snatches!*

Ah! Why did you take my rabbit?

Don't be distracted! Horse stance!

(Man, Jing Ji doesn't give a fuck.)

Yes, just like Sister-in-Training!

Hmph! *slashes*

Uwah. Even the nearby flowers are slain.

I wonder if there will be any more distractions!

Second brother, you're so mean!

Am I?

Yeah! You're a bully! Ji is a bully! Bully Ji! Bully Ji!

You...

Ahahahah-

POW!

Yeowch!

Why are you laughing?

Ji, calm down. Sister-in-training, the horse stance is very easy. Just like this. Try it.

... Like this?

Yes, that's it!

OK. Stay in this position until the incense is burned down.

A short moment later...

Ah! My feet! They hurt!

Huh?! How can you even fall from doing the horse stance?

Are you alright, Sis?

It hurts so much~

Let me have a look. Oh dear, it's swollen.

Are you serious?! How could that even hurt you?

Seniors, it really hurts!

Is it really that serious?

I dunno, you're the one with 100 Medicine. C'mon!

I'll take her to the doctor. You two, carry on by yourselves.

Man, one problem after another!

Good morning, your timing is impeccable. Sister's injury has healed, and we are going to train. Come with us!

OK! (Wow, First Brother's persuasion is actually working on her!)

Oh, where's Ji?

He went ahead to the training field. He said he wanted to make preparations.

Huh? Alright...

The three arrive at the training field where Ji is waiting.

Second brother, what's with the mats?

Humph! This is a protective measure! Now no matter how many times she falls, she won't get hurt easily!

Wang Rong! I guarantee you can practice martial arts safely today! I'll be watching you!

(Hm.. going this far. Will it make Rong train seriously now?)

Ji is really considerate. Come, let us begin!

Ah! The sun is coming out!

So what?

The sunlight is too bright! I might get tanned!

Uh..what's wrong with being tanned?

Hey! Whose side are you on?!

Sister, you can't avoid the sun while training martial arts. You should learn to get used to it. Do not worry, we'll be by your side to assist you.

Ah! I feel dizzy! It must be sunstroke, I need to rest in the shade!

Hmph! *grabs a bucket of water*

SPLASH!

Ji! How could you?!

You meanie! How dare you splash water on me?!

Don't you feel cooler already? Let's resume training!

Um... her clothes are.. becoming transparent.

Aiyah...

Ahhhhhhhhh!! Sexual harassment!

Brothers, we must help her!

Are you okay, Sister-in-training?

Wang Rong!

Did you see it?

...yes...

What are you two talking about? Ji, you are too impetuous! Go and apologize to her at once!

Ah! That's right! We'll be in deep trouble if she tells on us to master!

POW ! POW ! POW !

(She's too fast for us...)

Yuexuan! You are the eldest among the three! How could you let his happen! You make me lose face!

Master, I'm not a good role model. Punish me please!

Sigh! Forget it! I shouldn't have given you all this task from the start. It was my responsibility. You three may stop training Wang Rong from today.

...

(Man, being a teacher is quite difficult. Totally not what I had imagined.)
