Yang Xiao looked at Su Wen and smiled, "You still need more practice. You should train more in the future."

Su Wen stood up and nodded, "Don't worry, Grandpa Yang, I will practice more often."

In the distance.

His father had arrived at some point.

"Dad, why did you come up again?" Su Wen hurried over.

Su Donghe looked at Su Wen and said with satisfaction, "I saw everything. You did well, you didn't disgrace your father. Learn more from Grandpa Yang; he's not an ordinary person."

Su Wen was taken aback, not quite understanding.

"Donghe, don't exaggerate. How am I not an ordinary person?" Yang Xiao complained.

"Old Yang, since Su Wen has a talent for martial arts, I hope you will continue to teach him. I don't expect him to do great things with martial arts, but it's good for self-defense," Su Donghe said sincerely.

"Alright, Su Wen won't be like you," Yang Xiao frowned. "When I said you shouldn't join the army and should follow me to practice, you insisted on going. Now you have all sorts of health problems, and the boxing techniques I taught you are wasted."

Su Donghe's face showed a hint of melancholy, "I've been practicing the boxing techniques, but my legs can't keep up, so it's been neglected."

Su Wen was a bit confused.

"Su Wen, go back and have dinner first. Come back in the evening, and I'll teach you some other things," Yang Xiao thought for a moment.

"Okay, Grandpa Yang," Su Wen replied.

He went down the mountain with his father.

Su Wen asked, "Dad, did you also learn Tai Chi from Grandpa Yang?"

"I learned, but not Tai Chi."

"Oh, what kind of boxing then? Grandpa Yang knows so many."

"Tiger King Boxing. You wouldn't know it."

Su Wen scratched his head; he indeed didn't know many boxing techniques.

"Old Yang's martial arts are very high. If you can learn even a few moves from him, it will benefit you for life. Since he plans to teach you, don't slack off. When you're in Jiangning, make sure to practice every day, understand?" His father looked back at Su Wen.

"Dad, I understand," Su Wen replied.

In the evening, Su Wen went up the mountain early.

Yang Xiao saw Su Wen arrive and smiled, "Not bad. Now when you move, your lower body is much more stable. Remember, Su Wen, the lower body is key. No matter how strong your hands are, if your lower body isn't stable, you can't use any strength."

"Yes, Grandpa Yang."

"To train your lower body, the most important things are to be grounded and to maintain balance. You can practice these in everyday life. Don't waste any opportunity to train."

"I understand."

"Good, let's continue practicing Tai Chi."

...

When he went back in the evening, Su Wen was still pondering the secrets of Tai Chi.

When he stopped thinking about it, he was told by Little Tian about an incredibly surprising thing.

Side Quest 2: Brave Recycler. Task Description: Get hit 100 times. Note: You cannot intentionally get hit or do evil. Task Reward:初级血脉强化 (Initial Bloodline Enhancement). Current Progress: 3/100.

He carefully recalled and realized it must have been the three times he got hit while sparring with Yang Xiao.

If this could complete the task, he licked his lips, thinking he would really need to find more people to spar with in the future.

The next day, it was just getting light.

"Xiao Wen, don't forget to call me when you get to Jiangning. Do you remember the number I gave you? If you have any trouble, call that number. It's one of your father's old comrades. As long as you ask, he will help you with any trouble, but for small things, don't bother him." His father's voice was gentle.

"Dad, I remember," Su Wen replied.

The car soon left, and Su Wen waved goodbye to his father.

His mother was at home and didn't come.

Lingyin County was not far from Jiangning City, and it was just over an hour's drive if the car went fast.

Su Wen got on the bus with a large backpack, which contained clothes and some local specialties prepared by his mother.

The journey was quiet, and soon they arrived in Jiangning.

Jiangning City, a city between first and second tier in China.

The economy here is not very developed, but the cultural atmosphere is strong. Many ancient cultural customs and buildings have been well preserved. The city is known for its ancient architecture, small bridges, and flowing water, as well as its pavilions and terraces. It is also home to one of the top ten universities in China, Jiangning University, where Lin Xinyi studies.

As soon as Su Wen got off the bus, he saw many taxis.

He thought for a moment and decided to take the bus.

The job his father found for him was at an antique shop. He didn't know what he would do there, but he didn't want to go against his father's wishes. If he remembered correctly, the antique shop was called Jubaizhai.

It was a strange place.

Su Wen took out his phone and navigated to the bus route to Jubaizhai.

Bus 122 passed near Jubaizhai.

Su Wen, with his large backpack, looked around and saw many people waiting for the bus, including a few students. One of them, a girl with a butterfly bag, was particularly eye-catching.

She was a beauty.

Many men were secretly looking at her, but for Su Wen, he had passed the age where he would be immobilized by a beautiful woman, so he calmly browsed the map of Jiangning City.

The bus arrived soon.

Su Wen looked at his large backpack and waited until the end.

It wasn't that he couldn't squeeze in, but the large backpack would hinder the people behind him from getting on.

Su Wen waited until the end, and it seemed someone was waiting with him. It was the beautiful student from earlier. Su Wen took a closer look at her.

She had bright, clear eyes, like stars. Her face was round and oval, with black, shiny eyes and rosy cheeks, exuding a youthful and lively aura. Her skin was smooth, her eyebrows were finely drawn, and she stood gracefully, with a delicate and refined Southern beauty.

"You go first!" Su Wen gestured to the beautiful student.

The beautiful student looked at him, said nothing, and walked up directly.

Su Wen checked the system and saw that letting someone go first didn't count as a good deed. He then got on the bus with his large backpack, but there were no seats available.

The beautiful student was also standing.

Su Wen didn't mind. He stood and decided to use the opportunity to train his lower body.

Yang Xiao had said that the lower body should be stable and balanced.

There were many opportunities to practice in daily life, and the bus was a good place to do so. So when the bus started moving, he didn't even hold onto the handrails.

At first, he swayed with the bus and almost fell, but after two stops, he gradually got the rhythm. His legs moved as if he were practicing Tai Chi, advancing and retreating, attacking and defending, with ease.

Gradually, people noticed Su Wen's strange behavior.

The beautiful student was one of them. She stood opposite Su Wen and almost fell several times while holding onto the handrails. However, the person in front of her, with his large backpack, was like a weathervane, not moving an inch no matter how bumpy the ride. This was too strange, and she couldn't help but think of those extraordinary people.

"Classmate, don't stand too close to me," Su Wen kindly reminded her.

"Okay," the beautiful student nodded, but this made her even more curious. Meanwhile, half the people on the bus were now paying attention to Su Wen, and two boys were even betting.

"Ten yuan, I bet he'll fall at the next stop."

"Bet on it!"

...

Su Wen stood firm as a rock, passing three stops.

The driver, at some point, sped up. At a crossroads, a bicycle suddenly appeared, and the driver slammed on the brakes.

"Screech~~~"

People in the bus fell over.

Su Wen was fine.

He took a backward step to steady himself.

Just as he was about to stand up straight, a beautiful figure lunged at him. Before he could react, her lips kissed his face.

His mind went blank, and he fell into the bus.

The figure quickly pressed down on him and kissed his forehead again.

The people around them were stunned.

Su Wen was dumbfounded, and the beautiful student was blushing.

"My first kiss!"

"Ahhh~~~"

Before Su Wen could react, he was kicked.

Could he be any more innocent? Watching the beautiful student kick him repeatedly, treating him like a toy, he was furious. He hadn't done anything, and she had kissed him. How could this be his fault? Once he felt he was in the right, Su Wen didn't care about being a gentleman and quickly used the techniques of the Bone Separation Hand, grabbing the woman's foot.

"Try kicking me again, and I'll break your leg," Su Wen threatened darkly.

The beautiful student's face turned pale, scared by Su Wen's fierce look.

Su Wen coldly snorted, brushed off the dust on his clothes, and slowly stood up.

The people around him looked at Su Wen, both admiring and fearing him. How could he speak to a beautiful woman like that? Does he even know what it means to cherish beauty?
