Yonghe District.

There was a long street behind Splendid Cloud Pavilion. It could originally accommodate two carriages traveling side by side, but at this moment, the side street was crowded with people.

Because every night, there would be all kinds of snack stalls on both sides of the street. The vendors kept shouting, and the pedestrians walked and stopped. They were attracted by the delicacies on the street and could not walk.

Although the sky was completely dark, lanterns were hung on the carts of every vendor. The pillars of the shops at the back were also hung with lanterns, illuminating the entire street.

The sound was noisy, but it was filled with the aura of life. In some ways, it was also very pleasant to the ears.

Zhao Yuantu, Xu Ling, Su Yun, and Zhang Tianwen were shopping at the snack street.

The other apprentices felt that they could not integrate into their circle, so they consciously found an excuse to leave.

Zhao Yuantu and Xu Ling were already eating the snacks they had bought from the stall.

Compared to Zhao Yuantu’s rough eating style, Xu Ling was much more refined. However, the two of them seemed to be in high spirits.

On the other hand, Zhang Tianwen, who was at the side, smelled the oily smoke in the air and fanned himself with a look of disdain.

Although it was not so obvious, Su Yun frowned slightly.

“What’s wrong with Han Zhao? Why does it take so long to go to the toilet?” Zhang Tianwen said impatiently, “Did he leave first?”

He would never come to such a place. However, Han Zhao suggested that he go shopping. Since Zhao Yuantu and Xu Ling had agreed, he naturally could not say anything.

Unexpectedly, halfway through their shopping, Han Zhao suddenly said that he had to go to the toilet because of a stomachache.

Zhang Tianwen originally wanted to invite Zhao Yuantu to have fun and find an opportunity to send Su Yun and Xu Ling away. After all, the two of them might compete with him.

However, Zhao Yuantu and Xu Ling insisted on waiting for Han Zhao to return. They stood rooted to the ground for almost half an hour.

“That won’t happen.” Zhao Yuantu slurred his words as he ate. “It’s not a long time to go to the toilet.”

“Eldest Senior Brother.” Xu Ling rebuked, “Can you not talk about such things when you’re eating?”

“I’m sorry.” Zhao Yuantu grinned.

At this moment, a tall and handsome young man jogged toward the four of them. He was wearing a standard black training suit. It was Han Zhao, who had just finished venting.

“Junior Brother Han, you’re finally back. The skewers are almost cold!” Zhao Yuantu handed the lamb skewers in his left hand to Han Zhao.

Han Zhao took it with a smile.

Xu Ling was eating chestnuts stir-fried with sugar and muttered, “What’s wrong, Junior Brother Han? Why are you so happy? Did you pick up money?”

“Indeed, I picked up more than ten copper coins after leaving the toilet.” Han Zhao nodded and glossed over his gains from this trip.

“That’s really good luck.” Xu Ling smiled. She didn’t expect Junior Martial Brother Han to have such a good attitude. He had clearly been deliberately provoked by Fang Hongyun just now, but now he was acting as if nothing had happened.

“Eh…” Su Yun glanced at Han Zhao and picked up the copper coins at the entrance of the toilet.

“This skewer is so delicious!” Han Zhao bit on the lamb skewer, his mouth full of oil. Today, he finally saw how rich the rich in the inner city were.

Zhang Tianwen spent 40 taels of silver on this meal.

Fang Hongyun had only said a few words to him, but he had already compensated him with more than ten taels of silver for his mental damage. This made him want to be scolded a few more times.

“Junior Brother Zhang was the one treating us just now. It should be my turn this time. Everyone, eat as much as you want. I’ll pay.” Zhao Yuantu pointed at the street full of snack stalls.

“I won’t hold back.” Xu Ling inserted the straw into the top of the Fire Crystal Persimmon and sucked it.

“Me too.” Han Zhao didn’t stop talking.

Zhang Tianwen and Su Yun naturally gave them face, but the two of them did not eat a single bite along the way. Clearly, they were not interested in the food from the roadside stalls.

The five of them shopped for a while more before preparing to go home.

Before leaving, Zhao Yuantu was about to leave with Han Zhao when he was stopped by Zhang Tianwen. The two of them chatted alone.

When Zhao Yuantu returned to the martial arts school, he found Lu Yi lying on a rattan chair in the courtyard and looking at the moon.

“Master, why haven’t you rested yet?” Zhao Yuantu walked forward and took out a paper bag from his pocket. He handed it over with both hands. “Master, this is the stir-fried melon seeds I bought for you. It’s still hot!”

“If you went out to eat something good, why did you just bring me a bag of melon seeds?” Lu Yi said angrily.

“This… I…” Zhao Yuantu retracted his hand in embarrassment.

“Alright, give it to me! It won’t taste good if it gets cold.” Lu Yi reached out and snatched the melon seeds from Zhao Yuantu’s hand.

“Don’t be complacent even after breaking through. This is just the beginning! From tomorrow onwards, come to my room after lunch every day. I’ll teach you the fundamental comprehension technique of the Mountain Shaking Fist alone.”

“Yes, Master!” Zhao Yuantu, who was 1.9 meters tall, lowered his head like a child and stood in front of Lu Yi.

“Why don’t you go back and rest early? You reek of alcohol.”

“Yes!” Zhao Yuantu felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and bowed respectfully to Lu Yi before hurriedly running towards the east wing.

“Really…” Lu Yi shook his head and laughed.

As a Force Tempering Martial Master, he had eaten all kinds of delicacies. However, it was very interesting to tease his disciple. For example, Han Zhao was too smart. He could not tease him at all. His eldest disciple was more fun.

…

The next morning.

Han Zhao went to the roadside stall to eat more than ten rice dumplings before heading to the martial arts school to practice.

Lu Yi had reminded him yesterday that he had to be careful.

As soon as he reached the street where the martial arts school was located, he noticed a few luxuriously decorated carriages parked at the entrance. There was a family emblem on them. It was obvious that they were from a large family in the inner city.
