Chapter 4: Reach the sky in one step!

In the early morning, Ye Feng walked out of his room, and although he hadn't slept all night, he felt refreshed.

With two Martial arts elevated to the Major Achievement Realm, he felt that what had improved was not just the experience of these two Martial arts, but also his physical fitness across the board!

His strength, speed, endurance, reaction time, and even his spirit had all improved!

However, Ye Feng couldn't accurately judge the extent of the improvement.

Seeing no one in the courtyard, Ye Feng was eager to try, so he took a stance and began practicing Luohan Fist.

His fists moved like the wind!

Previously, Ye Feng was just a Young Master with no strength to tie a chicken, but now, he was filled with power!

His punches were like thunder, and with one strike against a tree in the courtyard, the thick tree, which would take an arm's embrace, trembled incessantly, its bark splitting!

With one stomp, fine cracks appeared in the granite ground!

At the back gate of the courtyard, Gao Ping, the captain of the Ye Family guards, watched Ye Feng practice his punches with wide eyes, his gaze filled with shock!

Just yesterday, Ye Feng was still a frail Young Master, but how had he suddenly become a Martial arts expert?

Just then, Ye Feng noticed Gao Ping and quickly stopped.

Gao Ping swallowed, then stepped forward, looking at Ye Feng as if he were a monster.

"Young Master, your fist technique... have you been practicing it all along?"

Ye Feng smiled, shook his head, and said, "This is Luohan Fist, taught by Master Huihai yesterday!"

Gao Ping's vision went dark, his face full of existential doubt!

Learned yesterday?

And he can fight like this today?

This must be the result of ten years of hard training, right?

Ten years for others, one day for Ye Feng?

Gao Ping was also a Martial Master, but now he felt that his own Martial arts practice might have been for nothing.

Looking at Gao Ping's dejected expression, Ye Feng suddenly had an idea and asked with a smile.

"Captain Gao, are you looking for me for something?"

Gao Ping shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, "It's nothing major. The master asked me to tell the Young Master that Master Huihai's body has been placed in the mourning hall, and we are to pay our respects in the afternoon!"

Ye Feng's smile faded, and he nodded with a heavy heart.

Gao Ping, however, didn't want to stay there for a moment longer and turned to leave: "Then I'll go guard the front courtyard first..."

But Ye Feng quickly called out, "Captain Gao, wait!"

Gao Ping turned back, bewildered.

Ye Feng thought for a moment and asked, "Captain Gao, you are also a Martial Master, what Martial arts do you practice?"

Gao Ping gave a bitter smile but didn't hide it, answering directly, "It's Mountain Cleaving Saber. It's not some high-level Martial arts, just a common one!"

Ye Feng's eyes lit up. He was really afraid that Gao Ping practiced some secret family Martial arts that couldn't be taught to outsiders. Since it was a common one, then he could learn it!

Ye Feng quickly smiled and said, "Captain Gao, I have an impolite request. Could you teach me this Mountain Cleaving Saber technique?"

Gao Ping was stunned and instinctively said, "Young Master, it's good to be studious, but with Martial arts, grasping too many things will make you unable to digest them. It's much better to master one than to have many mixed ones..."

Ye Feng smiled helplessly, shook his head, and said, "I understand that principle, but I've also reached a Bottleneck in this Luohan Fist technique, and I probably won't be able to improve further in a short time. So I thought of learning another Martial arts, and this Mountain Cleaving Saber technique happens to be a weapon technique, which doesn't conflict with fist techniques. So, I ask Captain Gao to not hesitate to teach me!"

With that, Ye Feng cupped his fists and bowed!

Although he was the Young Master and Gao Ping was a guard, and this Mountain Cleaving Saber technique was common and many people knew it, if Gao Ping taught him, then he would be a teacher, and a teacher comes first!

Ye Feng bowed willingly.

But at this moment, Gao Ping's face was as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

He practiced for one day and reached a Bottleneck?

If anyone else said this, Gao Ping would have cursed him profusely!

But just now, he personally saw Ye Feng practicing his punches, and the obvious Major Achievement level made him unable to utter a single word!

He had no choice but to believe it!

But thinking about himself, who had practiced the saber for twenty years and was only at the Major Achievement level, although it was related to him wasting a lot of time struggling for a living, the gap was too huge!

Comparing oneself to others is a death sentence!

Gao Ping held it in for a long time, and in the end, could only nod.

The two were in this courtyard; Gao Ping demonstrated the saber technique while explaining it, and Ye Feng listened and watched intently.

Gao Ping's skill level was far inferior to Master Huihai's. Master Huihai only demonstrated the fist technique once and explained all the key points, and the System successfully recorded it directly. However, Gao Ping had to perform the saber technique more than ten times before the System prompted a successful recording.

The System interface changed again, and Ye Feng didn't hesitate, directly clicking to upgrade.

Linjiang City was facing a great disaster. Now, every bit of improvement counted. Even if this Mountain Cleaving Saber was a common Martial arts, it was still an improvement, otherwise, if he encountered danger, these experience points would only be given to the King of Hell.

【Recorded Martial arts: Shaolin Luohan Fist (Major Achievement), Indestructible Divine Skill (Major Achievement), Mountain Cleaving Saber (Major Achievement)】

【Experience Points: 52 points】

Only 52 experience points remained, not enough to learn another Martial arts to Major Achievement, and Ye Feng didn't plan to learn anything else.

There was a huge gap between Minor Achievement and Major Achievement in Martial arts. Minor Achievement was equivalent to one year of hard training, while Major Achievement was ten years of hard training!

The remaining experience points, even if he learned a few more Minor Achievement Martial arts, would not be effective. It was better to save them and consider learning something else when he accumulated 110 points.

After the upgrade, it was noon. Gao Ping called out, and Ye Feng also put away his thoughts, walking with him towards the outer courtyard.

In the mourning hall, almost all of the Ye Family were present.

Ye Hongde saw Ye Feng arrive, nodded slightly, and then stepped forward to be the first to pay respects to Master Huihai.

One by one, they paid their respects, and soon it was Ye Feng's turn.

Ye Feng took a deep breath, knelt on the ground, and bowed three times and kowtowed nine times!

Master Huihai saved his life, and even saved the entire Ye Family, so he deserved his bow!

After paying respects, they returned to the main hall, where Ye Hongde was full of worry.

Seeing this, Ye Feng stepped forward and asked, "Father, is the situation in the city not optimistic?"

Ye Hongde sighed, full of bitterness.

"What do you mean 'not optimistic'? This morning, I sent someone to the government office. In Linjiang City, nearly three thousand people died last night!"

Ye Feng was shocked!

"Linjiang only has two hundred thousand common people in total, and thousands died in one night?"

Ye Hongde nodded, then whispered, "I originally wanted to offer some silver to Lord Chen, the Prefect, to let us out privately, but now Lord Chen, the Prefect, doesn't dare to let anyone go. The gates of the four cities have already been taken over by the Linjiang Army, and Lord Chen, the Prefect, has no way to make an exception!"

Ye Feng's heart also sank.

According to Master Huihai, during this catastrophe, perhaps only one in ten of the common people in Linjiang City would survive!

Staying in the city was equivalent to waiting for death!

But now, they couldn't get out, so what should they do?

Ye Feng thought for a moment and asked cautiously, "Father, do you know how many guards are at the gates of the four cities? And what is their strength?"

Ye Hongde was stunned; how would he know that?

Just as he was about to answer, at that moment, both father and son suddenly stood up and looked in unison towards the mansion gate!

Outside, on the street, there was a sudden uproar!

Gasps, screams, and wails exploded all at once!

Ye Feng and his father exchanged glances, their faces extremely grim.

"Something happened!"
