After settling Tie Tou's affairs, Yang Yu urged Xiao Qi to go and practice.
Although Tie Tou was forced to join the Houtu Sect by Yang Yu, Yang Yu was not worried about Tie Tou's loyalty. This kind of person, from the look of it, is straightforward. Once he agrees, he will not easily betray.
Of course.
Yang Yu would not be completely unprepared. His current strength has recovered to a large extent, while Tie Tou? He doesn't even have one-tenth of his original combat power. Yang Yu definitely has the means to suppress Tie Tou. And even if Tie Tou recovers in half a month, he will not be a match for Yang Yu.
"No matter what, I must become a Yellow Rank Warrior within half a month."
Yang Yu made up his mind.
Strictly speaking, a Yellow Rank Warrior is considered a true warrior. A Quasi-Warrior, with the prefix "quasi," has a significant gap from a true warrior. A Yellow Rank Warrior can easily handle a dozen Quasi-Warriors.
After reclaiming Tie Tou, Yang Yu received one lottery chance and 200 exchange points. What he was most looking forward to was the lottery.
"Let's draw!"
In the Sect Leader space, Yang Yu was very excited. He didn't expect to be able to draw again just a couple of days after the last draw. He wondered what he would get this time.
"Sect Leader, do you want to draw?"
"Of course."
The familiar roulette wheel appeared, and Yang Yu was a bit excited. Now that he had the Purple Mist Divine Skill, he was not as eager for internal martial arts. However, he would still be tempted by higher-level martial arts.
On the roulette wheel:
5 Basic Martial Arts: Wudang Long Fist, Twelve Road Tan Leg, Small Seizing Hand, Tiger Claw Hand, Bajiquan.
4初级武学: 全真教基础心法, 泰山十八盘, 全真剑法, 分筋错骨手。
3 Intermediate Martial Arts: Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, Tianzhu Sword Technique, Black Iron Sword Technique.
2 Advanced Martial Arts: Maha Finger, Purple Mist Divine Skill.
1 Top-tier Martial Art: Lesser Non-Phase Skill.
1 Ultimate Martial Art: Immortal Secret Technique.
As for the other two slots, they contained: a thousand-year-old ginseng and a willow leaf knife.
Compared to the last time, the changes were not significant.
Among them:
Immortal Secret Technique: Yang Yu had once heard the intelligent program mention that this was a martial art added by the system. Today, it unexpectedly appeared in the ultimate martial arts. Although he hadn't seen the content, the name alone suggested that this martial art was very powerful.
分筋错骨手: 《射雕英雄传》里朱聪自创,主要是脱人关节、断人骨骼,以极快手法,攻击对方四肢和头骨颈骨。修炼这门武学讲求胆大、力雄、准确、快速、狠毒。
As for the other martial arts, most of them had appeared before.
"Let's start!"
Yang Yu spun the wheel, and the items on it flew past his eyes at high speed. He was excited and full of anticipation, then he held his breath and waited.
It didn't take long for the needle to start slowing down.
"What will I draw?"
Yang Yu stared intently at the needle. The area of basic martial arts slowly passed, and the needle also slowed down.
The Quanzhen Sect's basic heart method passed, the Eighteen Discs of Mount Tai passed, and the Quanzhen Sword Technique followed. Finally, the needle stopped at the 分筋错骨手.
"Congratulations, Sect Leader, for drawing the 分筋错骨手."
The system's clear voice echoed in Yang Yu's mind, and the lottery was over.
"分筋错骨手!" Yang Yu was a bit dazed, then he quickly browsed through the 分筋错骨手 manual in his mind, quickly going through all the techniques.
The 分筋错骨手 includes techniques such as slicing, pointing, separating, sealing, locking, gripping, pressing, and twisting, all aimed at separating tendons and dislocating bones.
In less than an hour, Yang Yu had mastered the basics of the 分筋错骨手.
Yang Yu tried a few moves, and the more he practiced, the more he realized how powerful this martial art was. It was definitely one of the best grappling techniques, and it was very suitable for him at this stage.
"If I had practiced the 分筋错骨手 during my fight with Tie Tou, I could have turned the tide with just one move and wouldn't have been beaten so badly."
The 分筋错骨手, if used to win one move, could significantly reduce the opponent's combat power. It's easy to imagine that if Yang Yu had used his true qi to dislocate Tie Tou's hand or foot, the situation could have been completely reversed.
Having had the Super Sect Leader System for so long, Yang Yu was no longer a novice. While martial arts and heart methods are powerful, like the Northern Dipper Divine Skill, the Divine Light Skill, and the Innate Skill, which are all ultimate martial arts, the techniques used in battle are crucial.
Just like Xuzhu in "Demons and Gods," who had a lot of internal strength but knew almost no powerful techniques, and was therefore beaten by Li Qiushui without any chance to fight back, only able to carry Tonglao and run away.
The Luohan Fist that Yang Yu had practiced before was just a basic martial art, while the 分筋错骨手 is an intermediate martial art. In terms of level, the 分筋错骨手 is much higher than the Luohan Fist.
"Four strands of purple true qi have already condensed in my dantian, but the speed has slowed down." Yang Yu thought of another issue.
"Although the Purple Mist Divine Skill is powerful, breaking through to the Yellow Rank Warrior is still faster with the help of pills. The Zengyuan Pill that the system mentioned last time can be exchanged for one to try, but I have to wait until my injuries are completely healed."
Yang Yu now has 190 exchange points. The Zengyuan Pill is a second-level item, and one pill requires 120 exchange points. However, this one pill can replace three months of cultivation. He believed that with just one Zengyuan Pill, becoming a Yellow Rank Warrior would definitely not be a dream.
Breaking through to the Yellow Rank Warrior requires cultivating ten strands of true qi, which then condense into a more refined strand of true qi. It sounds simple, but there is a significant bottleneck in the process.
And Yang Yu planned to use the Zengyuan Pill to break through and become a Yellow Rank Warrior in one go.
Xiao Qi had taken Tie Tou to treat his injuries. Yang Yu opened his computer and carefully searched, but found no good housing options nearby. Now, not only did he have Xiao Qi, but also Tie Tou, and three men living in such a small place was quite disgusting.
"Damn it, where are the houses?"
Yang Yu was very frustrated.
Suddenly.
His phone rang.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Is this Yang Yu? I am Officer Zhang Yi from the Jinghai City Police Department, and I need to ask you some questions." It was a man's voice.
"Oh, how did you get my number?" Yang Yu was a bit surprised.
"I am downstairs in the residential complex where you live. The security guard has the contact information of each resident. I originally wanted to go up directly, but I am in plain clothes and don't have my police ID. The security guard is very responsible, and I can't just barge in, right!" Zhang Yi chuckled.
Yang Yu was silent for a moment, already understanding the situation. However, it took the police three days to find him, which was quite slow. Given the circumstances, he had nothing to fear. He had already done what needed to be done, and as long as there was no evidence, he could let others investigate as they pleased.
Thinking about this, Yang Yu said, "Wait there, I'll come down."
He hung up the phone, found a decent piece of clothing, and went downstairs.
Zhang Yi was a meticulous person.
Seeing Yang Yu, Zhang Yi was a bit surprised.
Yang Yu gave him the impression of someone who had experienced many ups and downs, someone who had seen the world and its storms. This was very different from his age, but it was not something Zhang Yi needed to focus on. It was just his habitual observation.
He liked Sherlock Holmes, and he applied Holmes' methods of observation and deduction in real life. Using these methods, he solved many cases and developed a keen insight into everything.
"Are you Officer Zhang?" Yang Yu was a bit surprised. This guy looked ordinary, with a cigarette in his mouth, not at all like a police officer.
Could he be a fake? Yang Yu began to doubt. No wonder the security guard didn't let him in; he looked no different from a street thug.
