Chapter 723 Prosperity
Taibai Martial Arts School has developed very well in the past two years and has grown greatly.

"After Black Cloud City was built, many people from other places flocked here. In a very short period of time, Black Cloud City became very prosperous."

Zhang Yuantao said slowly: "Some people come here for the Black Mountain Holy Land, while others think there is something profitable in this new city."

"During this process, our Taibai Martial Arts School has developed rapidly with the prosperity of Black Cloud City. Currently, the two martial arts schools in Black Cloud Town and Black Cloud City have 257 ordinary apprentices and 51 senior apprentices combined."

In Taibai Martial Arts School, those below the Skin and Flesh Realm who are practicing health preservation and physical fitness are ordinary apprentices, while those who are promoted to the Skin and Flesh Realm and officially step into the threshold of martial arts are advanced apprentices.

This was the division that Zhou Qing made when he first entered Taibai Martial Arts School, and it has been used to this day.

"A lot of people."

Bai Ruoyue was somewhat surprised. "I remember when we left Black Cloud Town, there were only a few dozen ordinary apprentices in the martial arts hall, right?"

"Third Junior Brother, you are so amazing!"

Bai Ruoyue went to the outside world, but she still didn't forget her original dream.

That is to develop Taibai Martial Arts School and make it bigger and stronger.

Now the scale of Taibai Martial Arts School has increased several times compared to before, and it can be said that the first step of the dream has been achieved.

In the old Black Cloud Town period, because Taibai Martial Arts School was established only a short time ago, it was not as competitive as the other two martial arts schools.

A few dozen apprentices is already the limit.

Due to the population limit of Heiyun Town itself and the competition between Tenglong and Kuangdao, it is difficult to further develop and grow.

After all, the place is only so big.

But now, the number of ordinary apprentices in Taibai Martial Arts School has grown to more than 200, which shows the prosperity of the martial arts school in the past two years.

"We have the right time, right place and right people, so we can have such development."

Zhang Yuantao explained: "Of the three martial arts schools in Heiyun Town, Tenglong Martial Arts School has been disbanded because of a major change, including the death of some of its senior executives including the school owner."

"The Gao family is in a similar situation. After the death of the head of the Gao family and some of the senior members, the Gao family fell apart. Some members of the Gao family left Black Cloud Town, while others scattered around. They no longer considered themselves the Gao family of Black Cloud Town."

Hearing this, Bai Ruoyue subconsciously looked at Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing looked calm. Why are you looking at me? The owner of Tenglong Martial Arts School, the patriarch of Gao family, is just a small character. Is he worthy of being remembered by Venerable Zhou?
"The Mad Blade School still exists. Although it cannot compete with us, it has benefited from the development of Black Cloud City. The same is true for the Lin family."

The three major families and three major martial arts schools in Heiyun Town no longer exist.

But apart from the Yun family, which is an extraordinary family and is not counted, the forces that have successfully stayed in Black Cloud City have become much stronger than before.

It can be said that they have all reaped the benefits of the times.

The last one standing is the king, and this is not just talk.

"There are also several masters from other places who have founded a martial arts school called Songxi Martial Arts School. They are very strong and knowledgeable, so they have attracted a lot of people."

"But because we are Taibai, we are outstanding in all aspects and unmatched, so we are still the first choice for the people of the Black Cloud Realm."

Zhou Qing asked: "Masters from other places? How good are they?"

"That's a couple, with their three disciples, a total of five people."

Shen Long interrupted, "The man of that couple is at the Great Perfection of the Marrow Cleansing Realm, and the woman is at the middle stage of the Sagely Manifestation Realm. So in addition to teaching martial arts, Songxi Martial Arts School also tests apprentices to see if they have the talent to become a cultivator, and teaches them the Dao."

"The three disciples are two men and one woman. The two men are both bone-refining warriors. One of them is the couple's son, who also cultivates the soul. The woman is a day-traveling cultivator."

He Feng added, "They came to Black Cloud City to open a martial arts school. They went through the formalities with the court and the Ghost and God Department. It was legal and compliant."

To open a martial arts school, one must go to the local government to complete the formalities.

If you want to teach Taoism, you have to register with the Department of Ghosts and Gods.

If you, as a master, pass on your teachings privately to your disciples, you do not need to register this. However, if you openly recruit apprentices of Taoism, that is different.

Taoist methods are too unpredictable. If they are allowed to spread unchecked and unbridled, once they cause harm, it will be much greater than the harm done by martial artists and more hidden.

Bai Tian nodded, "Healthy competition is good."

Taibai Martial Arts School must become stronger, but if Taibai is the only martial arts school in the entire Black Cloud Territory, that would not be a good thing either.

There is always some pressure in practicing martial arts. From Bai Tian's perspective, the existence of other martial arts schools and the healthy competition between them are good things.

Besides, the more apprentices are recruited, the greater the pressure on the teaching staff of Taibai Martial Arts School will be.

If all the people of appropriate age were to become apprentices at Taibai Martial Arts School, Zhang Yuantao and his colleagues would not be able to cope with the workload and would not be able to teach them all.

Su Changan said: "Master is right. Whether it is Songxi Martial Arts School or Kuangdao Martial Arts School, they are competing with us openly and honestly, and they have not used any shady means."

Shen Long laughed, "Even if they want to use some despicable means, they dare not do it here."

Taibai Martial Arts School, which is backed by the Black Mountain Holy Land, is not easily targeted by anyone in this area.

"By the way, Master, we took the initiative to lower the tuition fee of the martial arts school. It is now five taels of silver." Zhang Yuantao said again.

"That's fine, you did a great job."

Bai Tian praised: "We are all from Black Cloud Town, so it is only natural to do so."

The tuition fee used to be fifteen taels of silver, but now it has been reduced by two-thirds, which is a huge reduction.

However, Taibai Martial Arts School is not losing money and can maintain a balance between income and expenditure. Besides, Taibai does not rely on this tuition fee for its development.

Apart from anything else, the subsidies given to local martial arts schools and the tuition fees collected in a year are nothing compared to those resources.

The tuition fee was lowered not because Taibai thought the money was too much.

Zhou Qing and the others could understand Zhang Yuantao and the others' decision. Once one reaches a certain position, doing something for one's hometown is naturally a good thing.

Not to mention what happened far away, just look at the father and son Hu Zi whom Zhou Qing and his friends met at the entrance of the martial arts gym, and just look at the smile of the father, Zhang Yuantao and his friends' decision was correct.

As for not charging tuition and teaching martial arts for free...

This is actually not a good idea.

There will be problems if the tuition is high, but sometimes the problem will be bigger if there is no tuition.

"There are so many apprentices in the martial arts school now. How can you teach them all?"

Bai Ruoyue asked: "Did you rely on the help of the Yun family warriors?"

"Some of the teachers in the martial arts school are warriors from the Yun family, and some are warriors we recruited or hired."

Zhang Yuantao said: "During this period, there have been many independent cultivators coming from other places. After passing our assessment, we let them serve as teachers and teach apprentices."

"It's not good to keep bothering the Yun family's friends, so we try to train our own people."

"And some chores, such as apprentice registration, are handed over to some senior apprentices who volunteer to help."

In the past, Bai Ruoyue and other disciples were the masters of the martial arts school and were personally responsible for registration. But now that there are more people in the martial arts school, they are too busy to handle it.

Senior apprentices already have formal martial arts training, so things like touching bones and measuring bodies should not be a problem for them as long as they accumulate some experience.

"There are also people who once learned martial arts at Taibai Martial Arts School and later successfully graduated as masters. Now they have joined the school to teach apprentices."

"That's a good thing." Bai Tian affirmed:

"They are more familiar with Taibai Kung Fu and can teach more freely."

"There is also a marrow cleansing warrior from outside who wants to join Taibai Martial Arts School, but we are not sure whether he has ulterior motives, so we rejected him."

"That's right. With our strength, accepting a marrow-washing warrior will most likely cause problems."

Shen Long said: "But it's different now. Master and Master's Wife are back. We are not afraid of anyone with ulterior motives."

"Brother, don't worry. There are more than just Master and his wife. If you have any problems in the future, you don't need Junior Brother and Senior Sister to help. I will protect you."

Shen Yu raised her chin and said to Shen Long:
"I am also a bone-refining warrior now!"

"I can see it."

Shen Long was very happy, "My sister is really amazing, only second to my senior sister and junior brother."

The two have been dependent on each other since childhood. Now that Shen Yu has achieved such success, Shen Long can't stop smiling.

"But in terms of cultivation, I, as your elder brother, should be a little higher than you. You can protect me in the future."

"How many bones have you tempered?"

"Ninety-one dollars."

"I'm 49, so your cultivation is indeed higher than mine, but I'm definitely stronger than you, so I'll protect you!"

"Good good."

Shen Long agreed with a smile, thinking that his sister was really thoughtful.

Bai Tian praised: "It can be seen that you are all working hard to practice and not being delayed by the affairs of the martial arts school. This is very good."

"No matter when, your own cultivation is the most important."

Su Changan said with some shame: "Unfortunately, I haven't been able to advance to the Bone Refining Realm yet. I'm afraid it will take a few more months."

He Feng remained silent, and so did he.

At present, the cultivation levels of the four people left behind in Taibai Martial Arts School are as follows: Shen Long, who has just entered the Bone Refining Realm and has tempered ninety-one bones, is still a little short of the Bone Refining Minor Success.

Zhang Yuantao, who had just entered the bone refining realm, had tempered eighty-four bones and his cultivation was slightly inferior to Shen Long.

Su Changan and He Feng are still at the stage of great success in internal organs and have not yet entered the stage of bone refining.

When Shen Yu left with the great success of the tendons and veins realm, everyone had just come out of the mountain god's creation, the origin divine pool. Shen Long had already achieved small success in internal organs, and Zhang Yuantao had perfected the six internal organs, and was only one step away from small success in internal organs.

Su Changan and He Feng had just been promoted to the internal organs.

Now, nearly two years have passed, and Shen Yu, who was at the lowest level at the beginning, has become the latest one to rise to the top.

Apart from the fact that Shen Yu has the best talent among the five, the biggest reason is naturally the different environments.

The difference between practicing in the top Taoist sect and practicing in Black Cloud Town is obvious.

If Zhou Qing and the others had not returned today, but half a year later, Shen Yu's cultivation would definitely have surpassed Shen Long.

In fact, Shen Long and the others' practice is not slow. In the eyes of most warriors, the practice speed of these four people is enviable.

Many people who claim to have good talents are at the internal organs stage. It is still a question whether they can achieve the great success of internal organs after practicing for five years, let alone two years.

What's more, there is a bone refining barrier behind, which has stumped countless warriors.

The cultivation speed of Shen Long and his friends is far above the average, and they are rarely trapped by bottlenecks.

Unfortunately, among Taibai's seven disciples, there is a big pervert and a small pervert, and the other one is a Suzhen disciple.

In comparison, Shen Long and his team seemed to be as slow as a turtle...

No matter which world it is, the gap between people and regions is really huge, so huge that it seems like two different worlds.

But if you compare them with the outside world, such practice is enough to make countless people envious.

In fact, the speed of Shen Long and his companions' cultivation had already surprised the outsiders in Black Cloud City. They felt that the disciples of Taibai Martial Arts School were truly talented.

Of course, the resources left by Zhou Qing and the care of the Yun family were very important reasons for Shen Long and his team to make such progress.

He has both talent and resources, and he works very hard, so he has achieved such results.

However, Zhou Qing's cultivation level was not high when he left, and the resources he left behind were not that amazing.

At this time, Ling Yue spoke, and comforted gently:

"You are busy with the affairs of the martial arts school in Black Cloud Town while practicing at the same time. It is amazing that you have made such progress. Even in the Ling family, it is not bad."

"From now on, just concentrate on your training. Leave the affairs of the martial arts school to me and your master."

"In the matter of cultivation, one should not fight for a moment, but for a lifetime." Zhou Qing said with a smile:
"Don't worry, brothers. As long as you walk steadily, you'll be fine."

There are fast ways to amend the law and there are slow ways to amend the law. As long as you can keep making progress, that's fine.

"We brought back some gifts from Yujing this time, which will be very helpful to you."

Bai Ruoyue patted her chest and said, "Within a month, I promise you will be completely renewed!"

"Especially Junior Brother, you will never guess what gift he has prepared for you. It is really amazing!"

"Big sister, please don't flatter me."

"Humph, still pretending. No, I have to give my gift first, otherwise I will be too embarrassed to give it to him later."

Bai Ruoyue took out a lot of things and gave them to Shen Long and the others according to her own plan. These gifts were extremely precious to a marrow-washing warrior.

Bai Ruoyue was not rich, so these gifts were actually purchased by the three of them.

After she finished, Zhou Qing also took out the things he had prepared.

"These are the three lower-level heavenly martial arts, namely sword techniques, knife techniques, and fist techniques. These are two sets of techniques, and they are the fundamental training methods for earth-level warriors."

"After practicing these things, everyone's strength will be enough to rise to a higher level."

Zhou Qing said this and glanced at Shen Yu, "Senior Sister Yu, you can also practice."

"When you return to Suzhen Palace, if anyone asks you about it, just say that I taught you."

For a Suzhen disciple at Shen Yu's stage, even the lower-level Tianwu is extremely precious.

"Tianwuxue?"

Shen Long took a deep breath and said, "I have only heard of this level of martial arts. Junior brother, you can actually show off three of them?"

"It's awesome."

Bai Ruoyue took the initiative to say: "This is what Junior Brother gained after fighting with the Earth Realm warrior!"

When talking about Zhou Qing's glorious history, she was even more enthusiastic and happy than Zhou Qing.

On the way back to Heiyun Town, Bai Ruoyue had already taken time to learn the sword and boxing techniques of the three martial arts.

This is also true for the lower-level Heavenly Dao technique.

Three months later, Bai Ruoyue's soul cultivation had advanced from the visualization realm to the out-of-body realm, and was not far from the night wandering realm.

"Junior brother, can you fight against a warrior in the Earth Realm?"

Zhang Yuantao and others were shocked. They knew that Zhou Qing had been promoted to a Venerable, but they didn't know that Zhou Qing's strength had reached this level.

Taoist Tiemu would not tell them this.

When they heard it for the first time, they were all shocked.

Even though they had seen Zhou Qing perform miracles many times, this news was truly shocking.

When Zhou Qing left, what was the strength of martial arts?
Bone refining realm!
But now, its combat power has been raised to this level...

If this person was not Zhou Qing, Shen Long and the others would never believe that such a person existed in the world.

This is simply ridiculous!
It has only been a short time. The young man who has been out of Black Cloud Town for less than two years has actually come to this point?

With regard to his Earth Realm combat power, he is considered to be among the masters in the world.

If you make a subconscious comparison, you will find the gap is so huge that it is speechless.

"I'm afraid there is no one in the world as powerful as my junior brother..."

Shen Long murmured, "Big Sister, fortunately when I first came to the martial arts school to register, I didn't listen to your advice and took the tuition back home to get married and have children, otherwise...ah!"

Bai Ruoyue's true energy condensed into a fist and punched Shen Long through the air.

"Don't talk about this anymore!"

Bai Ruoyue was furious and ashamed. That incident was simply a stain on her life.

The others couldn't help laughing, but tried their best to hold back their smiles so that they wouldn't be too obvious.

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Everyone will have the opportunity to reach this level if they work hard in their cultivation in the future."

"Little Junior Brother, please stop comforting us. We are very satisfied if we can cultivate to the True Blood Realm in this lifetime. It is all thanks to you. You have taken so much care of us, and now we have the Tianwu School."

"That won't do. To cultivate a path, one must have great ambitions."

"Besides, these are just a few inheritances. They are nothing. Everyone can learn freely in the future."

Zhou Qing said: "But if you want to teach it to other disciples in the martial arts school, you have to consider it carefully."

Bai Tian interrupted, "These inheritances that Zhou Qing brought out should not be passed on to others for the time being. Yuan Tao, just study them."

"We understand." Zhang Yuantao said solemnly.

"This level of inheritance cannot be given lightly."

Zhou Qing smiled and didn't say much. He believed that they would handle it during the day.

Shen Yu asked, "Brother, do you accept any disciples?"

"No, although there are some talented apprentices, but Third Junior Brother said that now that the martial arts school is big, we have to be more careful in everything we do. We can't let others take advantage of the reputation of the martial arts school."

Taibai Martial Arts School doesn't even have three generations of disciples, so it's even more impossible to teach Tianwu.

There is no martial arts school in the world that teaches advanced martial arts directly to apprentices; they are only passed on to disciples in the inner room.

In addition to the three lower-level martial arts, Zhou Qing also had some true-blood-level martial arts that he could freely use, which he also handed over to Taibai Martial Arts School.

Even if one has practiced lower-level martial arts, True Blood Martial Arts is still useful. Not to mention combat, good enough martial arts can bring more martial arts wisdom and insights to a person.

Theoretically, all the inheritance that Zhou Qing had taken out could fully support the development of Taibai Martial Arts School into a truly top-level martial arts school.

Even those heavenly-level martial arts schools with relatively shallow foundations would not have a heritage as complete and profound as that of Taibai today.

But this knowledge is actually the most unimportant to Zhou Qing. He just needs to make a copy and he won't really lose it.

With Zhou Qing's current strength, it is enough to copy the normal Tianwu inheritance.

With the support of these inheritances, as long as Taibai does not perish, it will one day shine brightly.

The dream of the senior sister will come true one day.
