Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint

Chapter 53: Chapter 53 Building Owner Shen’s Surprise

Martial Arts Hall front courtyard.

Shen Congyun glanced indifferently over the crowd.

With his current level in martial arts, he could understand the basis of these newcomers with just one glance.

As his gaze swept over them, he shook his head inwardly.

They were all mediocre, not even comparable to that little girl.

However, when his gaze landed on Zhou Xing, his eyes suddenly rippled.

“Refining Skin achieved, comparable to grinding stone, reaching this step at his age is quite impressive, truly a genius.”

Then his nose twitched slightly.

Even from several yards away, he could distinctly identify the scent emanating from the people.

“The smell of medicine is extremely strong, it’s already deep into the bones, it looks like a good family background!”

“In that case, it can only be considered average!”

Having made a judgment, Shen Congyun slightly shook his head.

“Mr. Shen, have you discovered something?” Wang Jin noticed the slight change in Shen Congyun and couldn’t help but speak up.

Shen Congyun smiled wryly at this and shook his head.

“What could I have discovered!” He then added, “Brother Wang, didn’t you say that today there is a grand event at the Martial Arts Hall? Isn’t it starting yet?”

Hearing Shen Congyun’s words, Wang Jin felt somewhat disappointed.

Seeing the looks in the eyes of the disciples in front of him, some seemed to understand this was a pivotal moment of fate, their eyes shimmering with hope.

Wang Jin sighed inwardly.

As a mentor and disciple, I have sought all the opportunities I could for you.

If Mr. Shen doesn’t approve of you, there is nothing this old man can do!

After a moment of emotion, Wang Jin steadied his mind and then looked toward the disciples in front.

“Let’s have a few, carry this cage into the courtyard on the west side.”

“Teacher, I’ll do it!” Someone immediately spoke up.

“Teacher, I will too!”

“I will too!!!”

People spoke up one after another.

Especially those who were aware of Shen Congyun’s identity, they were even more eager to show themselves.

The next moment.

A few people immediately came in front of the tiger’s cage.

As they bent down to exert force.

With the combined strength of several people, the iron cage containing a four-meter-long fierce tiger was lifted off the ground.

Such activity also instantly awakened the previously sleeping fierce tiger. @@novelbin@@

It opened its eyes and looked around.

Roar—

With a roar, the entire Martial Arts Hall front courtyard became silent.

“Is this the King of Hundred Beasts?” someone inquired with a pale face.

At this moment, no one answered.

“What a strong oppressive feeling!”

Jiang Ning watched the fierce tiger with the character ‘King’ on its forehead, clicking his tongue in amazement.

“Indeed very powerful!” Cheng Ran also nodded in agreement, then continued, “That roar just now made my heart stop beating for a beat, such a strong sense of oppression!”

“But I actually want to go up even more later!”

“Only by facing this fierce tiger can I directly experience its oppressive force and personally fight with it; only then can I possibly take my Fierce Tiger Fist to the Great Success Realm!”

“And!” As he said these words, Cheng Ran’s gaze quietly fell in the direction of Shen Congyun, instantly meeting Shen Congyun’s eyes.

Cheng Ran immediately felt a surge of excitement and his face was filled with confidence.

“Moreover, by showcasing myself, there’s the possibility that Building Owner Shen may value me!”

He then nudged Jiang Ning on the arm.

“Come on, Brother Jiang, let’s move a bit closer! Let Building Owner Shen see me more clearly!”

Cheng Ran was secretly excited.

At the same time, Jiang Ning’s gaze was wandering, lost in thought.

“As Cheng Ran said, gaining favor from this prominent figure and investment from Wanhua Building could change my destiny!”

“This is an opportunity for me!”

“Even though I have those few pieces of wild ginseng, I still lack resources to advance my martial arts.”

“Moreover, if I gain favor and investment from Shen Congyun, I can have the protection of Wanhua Building’s influence, allowing me to practice martial arts smoothly and prepare to join the Inspection Office!”

The more Jiang Ning thought about it, the more he felt this was something he must try.

There was no harm in failure.

Once he succeeded, there would be tremendous benefits!

Comparable to the benefits of entering the so-called Inspection Office.

“I must seriously think this through and see if there’s any way to make Building Owner Shen recognize my potential, so that he’ll value me!”

“However, with my current insufficient strength and my mediocre boxing skills, it’s difficult to gain Shen Congyun’s favor.”

The more Jiang Ning thought about it, the more troubled he felt.

The trouble of having no starting point.

Although he was confident that with his miraculous skills, he would have a place in the world in the future,

he really couldn’t think of an aspect from which to start to gain the favor of this great figure, Shen Congyun.

Then, with Cheng Ran’s touch, Jiang Ning came back to his senses.

“Brother Jiang, shall we go?” Cheng Ran spoke again.

“Alright!” Jiang Ning nodded, his gaze also looking over.

At the same time.

Shen Congyun’s gaze also fell on Jiang Ning and Cheng Ran.

He was first attracted by Cheng Ran’s robust Qi-Blood.

Qi-Blood in great success, nearing realm entry!

Then, he silently shook his head.

Mediocrity!

Shen Congyun immediately judged Cheng Ran in his heart.

His perspective, naturally, was different from ordinary people.

The next moment.

His gaze then fell on Jiang Ning beside Cheng Ran.

Commonplace!

He made this judgment again in his heart.

Suddenly, his pupils constricted.

No!!!

With a long breath, his breathing even.

Shen Congyun listened intently again.

Thump—

Thump—

Thump—

In Shen Congyun’s ears, Jiang Ning’s powerful heartbeats were clearly audible.

Slow yet powerful beats!

This is… an initial sign of refined internal organs!

A thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

Thinking of that thought, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

Could I possibly be crazy?

Otherwise, why would I have such a thought?

Shen Congyun silently shook his head.

Yet, at this moment, his heart seemed possessed by that thought, slowing his steps.

“Mr. Shen, what’s wrong?” Wang Jin noticed the change in Shen Congyun at that moment.

At that moment, Shen Congyun turned a deaf ear.

His eyes were already closed.

In his concentrated state, any change around him, including the trace of the wind blowing the leaves, including the trace of ants crawling underfoot, was reflected in his mind.

Then, Shen Congyun’s heart suddenly shook.

The aura of Sun Essence!

This young man still had traces of Sun Essence on him!!

A torrential storm surged in Shen Congyun’s heart.

The presence of Sun Essence on Jiang Ning strongly corroborated his previous guess.

This young man had practiced the Inner Elixir Cultivation Skill, which was of the same origin as the Inner Strength Method he practiced, and also of the same origin as Wang Jin’s Inner Strength Method.

That’s why there were traces of Sun Essence on this young man.

And, according to the rhythm of Jiang Ning’s breathing and heartbeats, he concluded that Jiang Ning’s achievements in Inner Elixir Cultivation were substantial, obviously reaching the entry realm, matching the achievements of Wang Jin, who was at Martial Arts Seventh Grade.

Only with such achievements could the internal organs be refined to this extent, far stronger than ordinary martial artists,

Thoughts flowing, Shen Congyun opened his eyes, his gaze as tranquil as an ancient well, his expression revealing not a trace of his thoughts.

“Mr. Shen, what was that just now?” Wang Jin looked puzzled.

Shen Congyun slowly shook his head: “It’s nothing!”
