Douluo: I, the world’s immortal master, accept Ning Rongrong as my disciple Chapter 057

Chapter 57: Teacher Enters Seclusion for Breakthrough, Dugu Bo Comes to Cause Trouble!

“Xiao Wu, what kind of boxing technique are you practicing?”

“Such a slow boxing technique, does it really have power?”

“Xiao Wu, could Teacher be tricking you? Without any specific moves or forms, it looks like an old lady practicing health-preserving boxing. Good thing I’m not learning this set of boxing, otherwise it would drive me crazy.”

“There are many moves and forms, but Teacher said that my set of boxing shouldn’t be confined to moves, otherwise I’d be stuck in a rut. So I often forget many moves and don’t know how to fight…”

Over the next few days, the new campus expansion was almost complete, and Xiao Wu also trained with the students of Taoyuan Academy. However, Xiao Wu’s original source damage wasn’t fully repaired, so she could only do some basic training.

Knowing that Su Ran had taught Xiao Wu a new boxing technique, the other four senior sisters and brothers were very curious about what kind of martial art Xiao Wu was learning.

As a result, they saw Xiao Wu performing a set of health-preserving boxing. Not only were her movements slow and seemingly without any killing power, but she also forgot moves, making them feel a mix of amusement and helplessness.

Ning Rongrong: “It seems Teacher still prefers me, teaching me the incredibly powerful Wing Chun Inch Punch!”

“Come, Xiao Wu, let me show you the Inch Punch! This is real boxing!”

Ning Rongrong radiated a faint golden light and punched the iron stake in front of her.

The iron stake hummed and vibrated, leaving a fist imprint on it. If it had hit a person, that person would probably have had their guts torn apart.

“So powerful.” Xiao Wu exclaimed, “Is this the level of punching through metal and stone?”

Wang Sheng, on the other hand, rubbed his buzz cut憨憨地, comforting Xiao Wu:

“Xiao Wu, what Teacher said must be right. Just practice as Teacher told you, and this boxing technique will definitely be very powerful in the future. I also practice boxing, and even though you haven’t mastered it yet, I can vaguely feel a combination of hardness and softness in the boxing technique you’re performing.”

“Brother Wang Sheng, you can even tell that this boxing technique combines hardness and softness? I also thought the Tiger Form Fist you used to practice was very powerful. You must have high boxing comprehension, right? Can you tell me some tips for practicing boxing?”

Wang Sheng rubbed his head: “Teacher said my comprehension is very low. Others learn in one go, but I need three tries. Others practice once, but I need to practice ten times. That’s why I practiced the most basic Tiger Form Fist tens of thousands of times before I learned it. Now I’m learning the Subduing Tiger Fist and aiming to practice it a hundred thousand times.”

“But Teacher said, ‘Punch a million times, and its meaning will naturally appear.’ So Xiao Wu, your comprehension is definitely higher than mine. Persistence will surely lead to success.”

Wang Sheng cheered Xiao Wu on.

Xiao Wu nodded with determined eyes: “Mmm, I will definitely work hard and strive to catch up with you all soon, so I don’t drag anyone down.”

With her personality, learning this set of Tai Chi boxing was indeed difficult for her, but this was also how Su Ran wanted to temper her.

Seeing that the strength of the four senior sisters and brothers was much stronger than her own, and even the auxiliary-type Ning Rongrong’s boxing was better than hers, Xiao Wu became even more determined to master this boxing technique and not be the tail-ender.

After speaking, Xiao Wu returned to her training ground and began to actively practice boxing.

Perhaps, Wang Sheng was right: Punch a million times, and its meaning will naturally appear!

…

“Taoyuan Academy, you little punching kids, call your teacher out.”

On this day, an uninvited guest arrived at the gate of Taoyuan Academy.

It was an old man whose hair and beard were all dark green, and whose eyes shone like emeralds. The whole person gave off an illusory feeling, as if he were a phantom.

The old man walked calmly into the academy and spoke to Wang Sheng, who was practicing boxing under the peach blossom tree inside the gate, his movements powerful and swift.

Wang Sheng saw the newcomer, stopped his boxing, and slightly cupped his hands:

“Elder, Teacher is in seclusion these past two days and is not seeing guests for the time being. Please come back later.”

“Seclusion?”

Dugu Bo’s eyes narrowed, and an invisible pressure spread out. Green poisonous winds gusted around him, and the falling peach petals around him quickly withered and turned into dead leaves.

“No one can be in seclusion in front of me. I must see him today.”

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, pressing forward step by step, walking deeper into Taoyuan Academy.

Wang Sheng’s face showed a hint of surprise. This old man was very strong, possibly capable of seriously injuring him with just one move.

But as the only male student in the academy, and bearing the responsibility of guarding the academy gate, even though he knew he was no match, Wang Sheng still activated his martial soul possession, enduring the poisonous wind, and blocked the old man’s path.

The power of the storm spread across his body, and fierce green and yellow tiger stripes appeared on him:

“Elder, you cannot enter.”

Dugu Bo’s expression was a little strange. This gate-keeping boy was actually so bold, not even afraid of his poisonous gas. Although there was indeed a domineering power in this boy’s martial soul that even he felt, it was not enough to resist his Bi Phosphorus Snake Poison!

“Get lost.”

Dugu Bo’s green eyes coldly glanced at Wang Sheng, and a powerful green aura blasted his body.

Wang Sheng’s body swayed, and he was blasted back more than ten meters before he stabilized himself, only to find that he had been poisoned. Soon, green poisonous patterns appeared on Wang Sheng’s body, rapidly spreading to his internal organs.

Wang Sheng could only sit cross-legged, using the breathing method taught by his teacher to circulate his internal energy to protect his heart meridian, and gritted his teeth as he spoke to Dugu Bo:

“Elder, please leave here. Taoyuan Academy does not welcome impolite guests.”

“For so many years, wherever this old man went to any academy, I was always treated with respect. But here, you treat me as an impolite guest. Interesting. Are you really not afraid of death?” Dugu Bo looked at Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng merely said: “Teacher said, ‘A gentleman is respectful without error, and courteous to others.’ Elder, since you are both in error and impolite, you are naturally an impolite person.”

“What elder? I think he’s just a bandit.”

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Meng Yiran, who were training in the inner courtyard, also heard the commotion outside and quickly and lightly landed beside Wang Sheng.

“Such potent venom.”

“Zhuqing, does this poison feel a bit familiar?”

“Mmm, it seems to be the same Bi Phosphorus Snake Poison we encountered in the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City before, but the toxicity he emits is far stronger than Dugu Yan’s.”

“I understand. This person is Dugu Yan’s elder. The younger one couldn’t win, so the older one came for revenge, just like that idiot from the Clear Sky Sect, unreasonable.”

“You old geezer, Wang Sheng was talking to you nicely, and you even poisoned him. That’s too much!”

“Wing Chun • Inch Punch!”

Ning Rongrong enveloped herself in four layers of golden bells, and the Nine Treasures Golden Body Glazed Pagoda appeared out of thin air, with all four buffs applied to her. Her fist wind was fierce, possessing the power to split mountains and rocks.

This caused a strange look to appear in Dugu Bo’s eyes.

This martial soul… why did it give him a sense of déjà vu?

“What is your relationship with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect? You clearly have the amplification of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, but it’s even sturdier than the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, and… your Glazed Pagoda actually has nine layers!”

“No… Pfft~”

Dugu Bo was about to grab Ning Rongrong, who was attacking him, but he underestimated her strength. She actually broke through his grasp and punched him in the chest. He immediately felt a violent impact, which actually made him retreat a few steps and let out a muffled groan.

“Not only does it have the amplification of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, but it can also resist my potent venom, and it possesses considerable offensive power. It’s just as Yan’er said, the students of your academy are indeed quite extraordinary.”

“Unfortunately, you are still too weak now.”

Dugu Bo, surprised, brushed off his clothes and looked intently at Ning Rongrong and the others:

“I want to see how much Bi Phosphorus Snake Poison your golden bell and your dark hands can absorb!”

Dugu Bo discovered at this moment that the hands of Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing, the two girls, were emitting a dark purplish-black light, directly absorbing the Bi Phosphorus Snake Poison from Wang Sheng’s body. The poisonous patterns on Wang Sheng’s body were also rapidly dissipating.

He was a little surprised; he had actually come for these hands that could absorb Bi Phosphorus Snake Poison!

Vast amounts of Bi Phosphorus Snake Poison emanated from Dugu Bo’s body, dividing into two streams of poisonous qi. One continuously washed over the golden bell power on Ning Rongrong’s body, while the other attacked Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing’s Earth Nether Hands.

“You old ghost, you shameless old man, at your age, you’re attacking us teenage girls!”

“Little girl, have your parents taught you to watch your mouth?”

“If my parents were here, you wouldn’t even have a chance to strike!”

“Hmph! If I don’t make this little girl suffer a bit, her mouth won’t shut up.” The Bi Phosphorus Snake Poison released by Dugu Bo intensified.

Although Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Meng Yiran had made rapid progress over the past few months, facing the suppression of a Titled Douluo, they were still under immense pressure, and their faces gradually became solemn.

However, this had already made Dugu Bo look at them with new eyes. Ordinary Soul Venerates, and even typical Soul Sects, would have long since succumbed to the poison and pressure he was currently releasing, but these few students from Taoyuan Academy could still hold on.

“…”

“What should we do? If this continues, Senior Sister Rongrong and Zhuqing will soon be unable to hold on.”

“I don’t care anymore, I have to go save them!”

Behind the peach blossom stone screen, Xiao Wu finished her Tai Chi boxing and had been observing. She could sense that the newcomer was a powerful expert, and if she revealed herself now, her soul beast identity might be exposed.

But during this time, she had truly enjoyed a very pleasant learning experience at Taoyuan Academy. Moreover, Teacher had said that no matter what, she must never abandon her classmates or give up on her teammates!

Just as Xiao Wu mustered her courage and was about to rush out to help, a pair of large hands grabbed her shoulders from behind, making her tremble all over.

It wasn’t until that voice, like a gentle breeze, echoed in her ears that Xiao Wu’s face filled with surprise:

“Teacher, you’ve come out of seclusion?”

“Mmm, your identity is special, and your original source is not yet healed. It’s not appropriate to show your face in front of a Titled Douluo. Go back to the house first, and I’ll handle the rest.”

It was a figure whose aura had transformed again, exuding an air of immortality with every gesture, even without revealing their appearance, and possessing an extraordinary, otherworldly presence.

That figure was so grand in Xiao Wu’s heart.

Xiao Wu’s heart tightened, and of course, her little bunny also tightened:

“Teacher…”

“You’re so handsome…”
