Hope of Martial Arts
When Duan Xuan woke up the next day, it was already noon. After seeing that he was no longer so weak. Duan Xuan called for the palace maid to help him wash up. He was also preparing to pay his respects to his mother's bedroom. However, before he could leave the palace, he heard a sharp voice say,"The Empress has arrived."。。。。。。”Duan Xuan hurriedly went up to her and walked out of the palace gate. He saw his mother and the palace maids and eunuchs behind her rushing over. Duan Xuan went forward and bowed to his mother." Greetings, mother." The Empress hurriedly helped Duan Xuan up and scolded him with a worried expression." Xuan 'er, why did you get off the bed when you're so weak?" Didn't you tell me not to kneel? Quickly let mother see how your body is.”As he spoke, he held Duan Xuan's hand and sized him up.
Seeing his mother acting like a child, Duan Xuan smiled exaggeratedly and said to his mother," Don't worry, Mother. I'm fine now. Look at my muscles. Do I look like such a fragile person?"”As he spoke, he even posed as a bodybuilder. However, Duan Xuan's figure was very well-coordinated, like a cheetah, so he looked very funny. The Empress giggled and gently patted Duan Xuan's head with her jade-like hand." Don't be funny."”Then, he said to Duan Xuan with some worry,"Xuan 'er heard from your father that in the future, you'll be able to do something."。You can't practice martial arts anymore?" After saying that, she was afraid that Duan Xuan would be sad and quickly comforted him." But it's nothing. After all, you're going to be the emperor in the future. With so many experts protecting you, it doesn't matter if you practice martial arts or not.”" It's okay," Duan Xuan said to his mother indifferently." I may not have martial arts, but I still have my talent." Mother, don't worry." Seeing that her son wasn't sad about not being able to practice martial arts, the Empress was relieved. She patted Duan Xuan's hand and said to him with a smile," It's good that you think that way. It also saves Mother from worrying." Oh right, your Imperial Father and I have just discussed this. Your Imperial Father said that after you recuperate, he will let you participate in the government and help your Imperial Father manage the court affairs. I think this will be helpful for you to ascend the throne in the future, so I agreed for you. You won't blame Imperial Mother for making her own decisions, right?”Duan Xuan hugged his mother's arm like a child and hurriedly said," How could that be? Mother is doing this for my own good."”" Well, it's good that you know." Duan Xuan chatted with his mother for a while before sending her back to the bedroom. After sending his mother to the bedchamber, Duan Xuan walked directly to the Qianyang Palace where his father was reading the memorials. After entering Taihua Hall, he turned left and walked less than a hundred steps to the Qianyang Palace where his father was reading the memorials. When Duan Xuan arrived at the Qianyang Palace, the patrolling guards saw Duan Xuan and bowed to him, saying loudly," Greetings to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is a thousand years old." Duan Xuan waved his hand at the guards and said," Stand up, all of you may leave." Duan Zhengming had heard the conversation between the guard and Duan Xuan, so he knew that it was his son outside. He continued to read the memorial without looking up and said to Duan Xuan," Come in."”
The door was gently pushed open, making creaking sounds. Duan Xuan stepped into the room. He bowed to Duan Zheng Ming and said,"Your son is here to attend Imperial Father."”Duan Zhengming raised his head and said to Duan Xuan doubtfully," No need for formalities. Xuan 'er isn't recuperating at Xuanwen Palace. Why is he here with Imperial Father?"”Duan Xuan listened to his father's question and said," Father, I'm fine now. I'm here to pay my respects."”" Oh," Duan Zhengming replied and continued to read the memorials. After a while, he pointed at another table beside him and said," Xuan 'er, since you're here, help Imperial Father read these memorials."”Duan Xuan listened to his father's words and looked at the seat his father had pointed out. He did not say anything else and replied," Yes." Then, he walked over and sat down. He picked up a memorial and began to read it carefully. Duan Zhengming saw that Duan Xuan had already started reading the memorial and continued to read it.
The more Duan Xuan read, the more he frowned. The memorial he was reading was from the border, and it was probably saying that Tufan was ready to make trouble and asked for more troops to be stationed just in case. He threw down this book and picked up another one. This one was about the greed of the Song Dynasty and the increase in the amount of tribute from Dali. He changed to another book and read it one by one.
Until it was 17-19 o'clock. Even as a super expert, Duan Zhengming felt a pain in his waist after reading the memorial for a day. He put down the memorial in his hand and stretched. He looked at Duan Xuan and saw Duan Xuan frowning and reading the memorial in his hand carefully. Curious, he walked behind Duan Xuan gently and did not disturb him. He only looked at the memorial in his hand and frowned when he saw that it was a request for an increase in military pay at the border. He asked Duan Xuan," Xuan 'er. You have been reading the memorials for a day. Can you analyze the current situation in Dali for me?”Duan Xuan was shocked when he heard someone behind him, but he was relieved when he heard his father's voice. Thinking of his father's question, he hesitated for a while and then slowly analyzed it to his father," Now our country is considered to have good weather, but there are still many people who don't have enough to eat. However, for other countries, it is already considered rich. As for our country, it is small and weak, with a low population. The surrounding countries are all eyeing our country covetously. Although our country is a vassal state of the Song Kingdom, the Song Kingdom is now corrupt, and the other countries want to take a bite of it. We can't even protect ourselves. They simply did not have the strength to take care of our country. Even if the Song Country has the strength, I don't think they will come to help our country. They will only think about how to invade our country like other countries. So I think. Our country needs to take advantage of the time when the other countries are dealing with the Song Country to recuperate and build up strength. We need to continue to support agriculture and animal husbandry so that the people can eat their fill and live a good life. Our country doesn't have a large population, so we don't have many soldiers. However, we can train all our soldiers into elite troops. Only then can we resist the other countries." Duan Zhengming was full of admiration when he heard Duan Xuan's words. After hesitating for a while, he said to Duan Xuan," Xuan 'er, come to Qianyang Palace to review the memorials every day after five o'clock. It's already late, so accompany me for dinner."”As he spoke, he led the way.
————————
Duan Xuan accompanied his father to finish dinner and returned to his Xuanwen Palace. He remembered the mission he received from the system yesterday and hurriedly ran to the study. He found white ants under the bookcase on the left side of the study. He crushed a single white ant with his hand and heard a familiar sound in his mind. Ding!。。Killing a level 0 termite gives 0.001 experience.”What happened next made Duan Xuan ecstatic. When he killed the white ant, he felt a faint energy fly into his dantian from the white ant. Following that, his dantian actually had a very weak sense of Qi. Moreover, this trace of Qi was actually not devoured by the dirty Qi. The ecstatic Duan Xuan immediately killed another ant. Another wisp of mysterious energy flew into his Dantian and fused with the previous wisp. Then, he killed another eight in a row.。。Kill 10 termites, extermination mission completed.”Then, Duan Xuan felt a small stream of mysterious energy gushing out of his Dantian. Although it was very weak, the colorless internal energy formed by the mysterious energy actually ignored the existence of the foul air and swam directly in his Dantian. Duan Xuan thought of another mission. He immediately stared at a relatively large ant on the ground and thought about the trapping technique. Then, the ants that were crawling on the ground disappeared instantly. A ding sounded in his mind. Successfully captured a Level 0 mutated termite, trapping skill experience 1."
"Ding... The growth mission is complete." In his dantian, a colorless internal force equivalent to half a year's worth of cultivation merged with the previous one. Duan Xuan, who had regained his strength, unconsciously activated the Zhengyang Skill he had learned before. He heard the familiar ding sound again.。。。Self-created first-class internal art. Please name it." Duan Xuan was stunned that the Zhengyang Technique was self-created.。"Ding... [Zhengyang Technique] was named successfully. "Experience 10." Duan Xuan realized that this was a loophole. He immediately activated the [Tai Yin Heart Sutra].。。Self-created first-class internal skill, please name it. Duan Xuan named it according to his real name. But an accident happened. "Ding... [Zhengyang Skill] and [Taiyin Heart Sutra] have mutated and are automatically fusing.。The fusion was successful. "Please name it." Duan Xuan was stunned. He called out the skill interface and placed his consciousness on the newly appeared star. Due to the mutation and fusion of Zhengyang Skill and Taiyin Heart Sutra, it became a Yin and Yang internal cultivation method with two attributes. The Yin and Yang Cycle was upgraded to a top-tier internal cultivation method with a total of level 7. The current level is level 1. Every cycle of using the cultivation technique will increase 1 point of experience. 1000 EXP required to level up a skill. The next level is level 2, and every cycle can increase 10 experience points. Duan Xuan was overjoyed to see that his internal cultivation method had been upgraded. He named it the Yin-Yang Two Qi Formula and then heard a ding.。。Name successful. Experience gained: 100.”Then, there was another ding. EXP has been maxed out. You have successfully leveled up. All attributes 1. Your current level is 60/200. The next level will be level 2. Please continue to work hard.”Then, Duan Xuan felt a mysterious energy pour into his head. After it circulated through his body, it disappeared. Duan Xuan immediately checked his body and found that his damaged meridians had improved a little. Even his body had strengthened a little, although it was a little hard to notice.
Duan Xuan was already numb to the surprise. Just as he was about to exit the skill interface, he realized that there was an option at the top corner of the skill starry sky. He immediately used his Willpower to welcome it. This option was to merge two types of words. When he opened the merge option, an interface with two black holes on top and small words below popped up. The small words said,"Choose two skills and put them into the black hole to fuse." Fusion had a 60% chance of success, 30% chance of failure, 7% chance of leveling up, and 3% chance of mutation. Fusion required experience to activate. The experience required was based on the skill level. Unrated skills required 10 experience points, third-rate skills required 100 points, second-rate skills required 1000 points, first-rate skills required 10,000 points, top-tier skills required 100,000 points, and so on. There was a 0.01% chance that the skill would automatically fuse. In such a situation, experience was not required. After checking the fusion options, Duan Xuan exited the skill interface and opened the mission interface to accept the remaining eight missions. After that, he left the Sea of Consciousness. When Duan Xuan was doing his task, he thought of the white ant that he had just taken in. In the game in his previous life, pets could level up just like their owners. Therefore, he released the white ants and went to kill a few small bugs. As expected, the system prompted him to kill a Level 0 ladybug and gain 0.001 EXP. Seeing that pets could really level up, Duan Xuan put the 5mm white ants on his shoulder and began to do the quest again.
When Duan Xuan finished the task, it was already 11:00 pm. Moreover, he had already reached Level 3. The power in his body was equivalent to that of others who had practiced hard for three years. Duan Xuan felt that today was really his lucky day. He was pleasantly surprised, but what made him the happiest was that he could become a martial arts master if things continued like this. Looking at the dark sky and the starlight shining on the ground, he thought of the morning court session tomorrow and returned to his bedroom. After returning to his bedroom, Duan Xuan activated the mutated Yin Yang Qi Formula and made the Internal Strength circulate automatically in his body. After running one round for about ten minutes, Duan Xuan entered the dream with a smile on his face when he heard the system notification.
