Chapter 3, a true gentleman should be like this

It is indeed as such... Lou Cheng chewed on it a few times, stole a glance at Yan Zheke by the door, and teased Cai Zongming, saying: "So are you going to say 'he can be replaced'?"

"Think about it, you made an excuse to leave early because you had something to do, and later you can ask her what happened afterwards, whether there were any arrangements for the usual practice. The topic will naturally come up, and you don't have to worry about her being annoyed. As for what comes next, you are classmates; once the conversation starts, won't there be plenty to talk about?" Cai Zongming spoke eloquently.

The moment Lou Cheng withdrew his gaze, it swept past the door and unexpectedly caught sight of Yan Zheke, dressed in a red and white Hanfu, standing there at some unknown time, her expression and eyes identical to those of the nearby girls

"Am I smiling a bit foolishly, Casanova?"

Indeed, when the time comes, we will sweep through the schools in the Kwan Nan Inner Sea and see how they flaunt their power

The current time is neither early nor late, Lou Cheng quickly suppressed his emotions, opened his computer, and logged into the forum

Haha, look at his eyebrows, it reminds me of a line from a song, "The insects fly, the insects fly..." While Chen Changhua was giving a speech above, Cai Zongming chuckled and said to Lou Cheng.

Yes." Cai Zongming nodded.

How cool!

As they watched the young female reporter and the photographer enter the venue, Lou Cheng and Cai Zongming suddenly spoke at the same time

It is quite good, and I feel that our martial arts club can reach new heights. Cai Zongming replied with a beaming smile

Of course it is strange, his numerous words can be condensed into two sentences: First, a profession of the ninth rank is nothing, Lin Que is nothing! Cai Zongming chuckled and said, Second, our martial arts society does not perform well, it is not that we are lacking in effort, but that the enemies in the same district are too strong!

Are you still waiting to meet your senior brothers and sisters? Wake up, you are just here to pursue girls. Do you really think you are an extraordinary talent, suddenly enlightened at the age of eighteen without any foundation, and your martial arts skills will soar, overpowering all your senior brothers and sisters? You will represent Songcheng University at the National Martial Arts Tournament and win the championship, then be noticed by the first-tier forces, leading to promotions and salary increases, marrying a beautiful and wealthy woman, becoming a formidable figure, and reaching the pinnacle of life?

"Orange, do you think I was laughing a bit stiffly just now?"

Luo Cheng was just about to look up closely when he was suddenly tugged by Cai Zongming's clothing

"Tsk tsk, showing off their affection." Lou Cheng knew that Cai Zongming was about to indulge in a long phone call again, so he returned to his small dormitory, intending to play on the computer for a while

Those who are capable tend to have a bit of temperament

Hello, two students. I am a reporter from Songcheng Television Station. Would it be convenient for you to accept a brief interview

The realm of martial arts is divided into four levels: Body, Qi, Gang, and Forbidden. This is common knowledge that everyone is aware of. We will not discuss the latter two today, as they are not accessible to us amateur enthusiasts. I will focus on 'Body' and 'Qi'. 'Body' refers to the practice of body refinement, emphasizing the character 'refine'. This means refining our bodies in a manner similar to alchemy or forging, which requires a multifaceted approach rather than merely standing in a stance or engaging in strength training.

"Hello, is this 110? There is a pervert here." Lou Cheng deliberately picked up the phone

Hello everyone, I am Chen Changhua, the president of the Martial Arts Club, and you are all seniors in your fourth year..." The figure, robust and muscular, dressed in a black tight-fitting outfit, appeared fierce and agile. At this moment, he held the microphone with a smile, introducing himself, and the excess flesh on his face seemed to soften.

Upon entering the forum, Lou Cheng unconsciously revealed a mysterious smile and posted a message under the ID "Schrodinger's Tiger"

Ah, caught red-handed for skipping class... Lou Cheng couldn't help but scratch the back of his head: "Yes, we, we have something to attend to and need to leave early"

At this point, he lowered his voice and said, "If you leave now, there will be a topic for you to discuss with your goddess later."

Ah, it truly makes one envious and resentful. Lou Cheng couldn't help but say to Cai Zongming, "If only I could also have a professional rank of 9, then I could enjoy such treatment as well"

The reporter girl Shu Rui raised her beautiful oval face and said with a smile, "You are members of the Martial Arts Society of Songcheng University, aren't you?"

He must be the legendary Lin Que..." Lou Cheng thought to himself

"It feels strange to be on television for the first time," Lou Cheng said as he rubbed his cheek

Lou Cheng glanced at him and said, "Casanova, you really should join the crosstalk club; you must not waste your talent"

Lin Que resembled a "silencer," swiftly dissipating the clamor within the venue. Faced with a myriad of curious, scrutinizing, gossiping, excited, agitated, and adoring gazes, he maintained a cold demeanor, his lips pressed tightly together, his gaze fixed straight ahead, proceeding on his own. Even when confronted with the soft introductions from his guiding teacher beside him, he merely nodded slightly, uttering not a word. With the latter paving the way, he traversed the crowd like a star, entering the changing room of the martial arts arena.

However, upon reflection, it is not surprising that Songcheng University, the best university in Songcheng, attracts attention from reporters, especially since martial arts is the most popular discipline.

If I had his skills and could achieve the rank of Ninth Grade in my profession, I would be just as proud

Luo Cheng hesitated for a moment and said: "Why does Chen Changhua's words sound strange?"

What are you pulling... ...

He turned the door of the small dormitory, finding it empty. Lou Chengming understood that those three fellows had not yet returned from their self-study session

The Dragon and Tiger Club is a force at the first tier of the "Professional Martial Arts Competition" and is one of the strong contenders for the nation's most powerful martial arts heritage. More importantly, it was established only a little over thirty years ago, which is akin to a newborn baby when compared to those sects with legacies spanning several hundred years. Yet, this "baby" has relied on the martial arts schools it has established across various age levels to challenge the noble, ancient, and powerful sects, achieving a series of remarkable accomplishments. One of the current martial arts world’s "peerless twins," the "Dragon King" Chen Qitao, is a signature figure cultivated by them.

Such a martial arts club, such extraordinary martial artists, naturally possess an indescribable charm that attracts a vast number of fans, and Lou Cheng is one of them

After a while, Yan Zheke entered from outside and went to the women's changing room. The welcome meeting started on time, and Lou Cheng only saw the lights illuminate as a robust and muscular man stepped onto the stage

As soon as the words were spoken, the two exchanged a smile, and the slight tension that had just been present instantly dissipated.

Ah? Lou Cheng looked completely bewildered

As soon as he stepped out the door, Lou Cheng had not yet had the chance to walk down the steps when he was stunned by the scene before him. Not far ahead, there was a prominent camera being carried by a brother with an artistic temperament, the lens aimed directly at him and Cai Zongming.

A man with a slicked-back hairstyle, sagging muscles on his cheeks, and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, walks with a steady gait. He appears to be the instructor of a martial arts club, commonly referred to as a coach. As he surveys his surroundings, his expression is serious and unsmiling, only revealing a hint of joy and warmth when he looks at the person beside him. This person is half a head taller, has a buzz cut, and a tall, slender build, dressed simply in jeans and a white T-shirt, looking fresh and clean, with a bulging black sports bag slung over his shoulder.

"Call him a love saint!" Cai Zongming slightly bent down and took the opportunity while his senior brothers and sisters were going on stage to slip towards the door, with Lou Cheng closely following behind

Cai Zongming looked around and said: "Since we are just here to pass the time and enjoy ourselves, what does it matter whether we know our senior brothers and sisters? After all, I can teach you anyway..."

"Let's go, it's time to return," Cai Zongming said in a lowered voice

Cai Zongming exclaimed: "At such times, it is necessary to use allusions; only then can you appear cultured. The envy and jealousy translate to 'A true man should be like this!'"

Luo Cheng was taken aback and said, "Are we leaving already? It's still early."

"Fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, and still speaking so proudly, you truly have no equal." Lou Cheng and Cai Zongming were mutually harming each other

Of course, if one truly possesses talent, it is not impossible to break through the barrier from 'Refining the Body' to 'Danqi'. There are similar geniuses at Shanbei University, and every time we encounter them, it leaves us in great distress, as we are simply unable to compete with them

The whispered conversation between the two individuals had no effect on Chen Changhua, who continued to introduce the topic:

It seems to be alluding to someone

People are crowded together, pressed against one another. Fortunately, Cheng and Cai Zongming have just entered the venue and are not far from the door, allowing them to barely see two figures entering from the entrance

"Those who know me call me Orange." Cai Zongming said with a smile, raising his arm and flexing his muscles, "I have already reached an amateur level of Fifth Rank with my three days of fishing and two days of drying nets. If I take it seriously, I could easily achieve a professional level of Ninth Rank. Do you believe I can reclaim the title of the male beauty representative of the Martial Arts Society in no time?"

Miss Shurui retracted the microphone and said with a radiant gaze, "Thank you both for agreeing to the interview"

"Truly diligent..." Lou Cheng felt a wave of guilt, for it is only through comparison that differences become apparent

This is a discussion among the boys

I can't believe it, skipping a martial arts class and ending up on television?

This young lady appears to have just graduated, sporting a neat and refreshing short hairstyle. Her eyebrows are dark and long, her eyes are bright and expressive, her nose is not particularly prominent but is charming and cute. When she speaks with a smile, a shallow dimple appears. Hanging on her chest is a work ID that reads the name "Shu Rui".

"No problem." Cai Zongming replied without hesitation

Listening attentively, Lou Cheng furrowed his brows in confusion and turned to Cai Zongming beside him, asking, "Shanbei University was the champion of last year's University Martial Arts Competition, right?"

Xiao Ming, in our dormitory, I only admire you!

Come, let me introduce to everyone the senior brothers and sisters from the martial arts club who have achieved success in their training. They have all participated in the ranking competitions, with the lowest rank being Amateur Level 6

"What interview?" Lou Cheng retorted as he faced the microphone that was handed to him

They met. Lou Cheng and Cai Zongming exchanged a glance. Is there still a television station interview regarding this matter

Cai Zongming chuckled, "Me too, never mind, I might just get cut out anyway. The focus of the interview is Lin Que. Hehe, that reporter just now was really great, both beautiful and pure, with a good figure. The highlight is those legs, long and straight, even more to my taste than your goddess.

A pile of smiles emerged, expressing from the heart: "I am very excited and thrilled, yes, it is an honor."

The purpose of my statement is to inform everyone that it is perfectly fine if you have not previously engaged in formal martial arts training; starting today, this gap can be addressed. Our Martial Arts Society at Songcheng University has a long and rich history, and the tradition of 'body refinement' is authentic and cannot be compared to those martial arts studios or gyms outside. As long as you can commit to four years of relatively serious practice, achieving an amateur rank of four or five will be more than sufficient. At that point, becoming a coach at a martial arts studio or gym will be a breeze, which can also be considered another avenue for employment.

The young girl, who still bore a hint of student demeanor, immediately broke into a smile upon seeing Lou Cheng and Cai Zongming come out, and approached them.

The martial arts club truly has handsome men

Shu Rui smiled and said: "Lin Que is the first martial artist in the history of Songcheng University to enter the school with a professional rank of 9. What are your feelings about his joining the Martial Arts Society? What are your thoughts?"

"Let them be, they can do whatever they want, what does it have to do with us?" Cai Zongming said, taking out his phone out of boredom

Until his figure disappeared, the crowd suddenly broke the brief silence, erupting into a cacophony of discussions.

The two of them were not in a small dormitory. After entering the living room, Cai Zongming took out his phone and said, "Chengzi, I will make a call first. Remember to wait for me to eat."

Loucheng smiled twice and said, "Since we are here, we might as well take a look."

After speaking for a while, Chen Changhua finally concluded his lengthy discourse and smiled, saying

Urgent! I finally joined the martial arts club today. How can I pretend that I have been a member for a long time?

Get lost! Cai Zongming said irritably, "I was just talking a bit."

If any of you truly love martial arts, after four years of diligent practice, it is certainly possible to pass the qualification competition and attain the professional level of Ninth Rank. I consider myself to have average talent, but I am willing to endure hardship. Last year, I reached the standard of Amateur First Rank, and this year I plan to participate in the qualification competition. Therefore, the professional Ninth Rank is by no means out of reach for our students in the Songcheng Martial Arts Club. As long as we work hard and put in our efforts, it is all possible

The two individuals exchanged glances, each perceiving the disdain in the other's eyes

Lou Cheng fixed his gaze upon him, and after a few seconds, he finally spoke

Our martial arts club is about to soar to new heights

The dormitory of Songcheng University features a layout of two bedrooms, one living room, and one bathroom. The living room is equipped with a simple sofa and a television. To the left, there is a balcony for drying clothes, while to the right, there is a washroom with two separate squat toilets. By walking around the sofa and proceeding down the corridor, there are two small bedrooms on either side, each accommodating four residents, with bunk beds and desks, separated by wardrobes.

Both stylish and charismatic

This is the discussion among the girls

"Well, I have matters that require me to leave early," Cai Zongming replied calmly

Loucheng smiled and said, "Alright, alright, in the future if I encounter it, I will tell my sister-in-law that classmate Xiaoming is as pure as jade"

Shu Rui did not care, maintaining a professional smile: "Did you just see Lin Que?"

Lou Cheng confirmed his suspicion and couldn't help but shake his head: "It seems that Chen Changhua, the president of the Martial Arts Society, is not convinced by Lin Que, but to say it so directly is rather low."

With his guidance, we might even be able to secure a secondary position of level 5 or 6 by the time we graduate, providing us with more options for job hunting

The two chatted and laughed, quickly putting the interview out of their minds and returning to their dormitory

Next to the cameraman is a young woman dressed in a light gray business suit, embodying the legendary combination of a white shirt, a small blazer, a pencil skirt, and high heels with silk stockings

This is a collection of forums similar to Tieba, where one can find a variety of forums, each more peculiar than the last, all with user gatherings. The forum that is being accessed is the "Dragon and Tiger Club".
