Chapter 32: Chapter 21 Heavenly Martial Heart Refinement
Upon hearing these words, many students present were startled, thinking that Bai Zhenzhen had succeeded.
But they heard Li Xuelian sigh, looking at Bai Zhenzhen, she said, "To learn the techniques of these nine martial arts in such a short time with your own strength, your talent and aptitude are truly one in a million."
"It's just a pity that it still falls short of my father's requirements."
Upon hearing these words, some students present heaved a sigh of relief, while others were secretly surprised.
Zhao Tianxing thought to himself, "Even this didn't meet the requirements? Just how powerful a disciple does Master Xinghuo want?"
On the other side, Bai Zhenzhen secretly heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.
She hadn't expected to trigger a change in the Martial Arts Diagram all of a sudden, almost panickedly wanting to refuse Master Xinghuo's offer to take on a disciple.
Bai Zhenzhen thought to herself, "Luckily I didn't say it out loud, or I would have been hugely embarrassed. I just felt like something was still missing."
After Bai Zhenzhen's series of actions, some people stepped forward to try practicing the nine martial arts one by one, but none of them triggered any changes in the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram again.
Instead, Lian Tianji, who had always been overconfident, didn't go up to try again for a long time, seemingly pondering over the reason for Bai Zhenzhen's failure, wondering what exactly they were still missing.
For a moment, the entire scene fell silent, and unconsciously, no one stepped forward to try anymore.
Just as Li Xuelian was sighing that it had come to this, she suddenly saw Zhang Yu walking up with his cell phone.
"Hmm?" Li Xuelian became interested for a moment, thinking, "Having seen so many people fail, he still has the confidence to go up. It seems he has some assurance."
But the next moment, she couldn't help but frown.
Because Zhang Yu started playing a video on his phone, practicing martial arts by following Bai Zhenzhen's movements in the video.
It was clear that he had just recorded Bai Zhenzhen practicing martial arts with his phone.
Seeing Zhang Yu mimic each move from the video, Li Xuelian's frown deepened.
Obviously, Zhang Yu was unfamiliar with the eight other martial arts apart from his own understanding of boxing. Although he was imitating Bai Zhenzhen's movements like drawing a gourd from a bottle, it only highlighted the difference in their understanding of the techniques of these eight martial arts.
From afar, Zhao Tianxing watched Zhang Yu in his security guard uniform, imitating Bai Zhenzhen's movements like a parody under everyone's gaze, and he felt a chill run down his spine, wanting to dig a hole for himself to hide in.
Just watching made him feel that everyone's eyes on Zhang Yu were filled with contempt and ridicule. He couldn't imagine how the person actually doing it in that position would feel.
"Stop it, Zhang Yu!" Zhao Tianxing couldn't bear to look anymore and could only shout in his heart, "It's so embarrassing, you're already being treated as a clown!"
Zhang Yu naturally couldn't hear Zhao Tianxing's thoughts and didn't care about what people in the exhibition area thought of him now.
He just seriously followed Bai Zhenzhen's movements in the video, performing each of the nine martial arts techniques one by one.
As he finished the final move, countless experiences and insights suddenly flooded into his mind, allowing Zhang Yu to instantly have a different understanding of the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram, as if he had practiced it tens of thousands of times.

At this moment, the techniques of the nine martial arts began to fade from his mind, replaced by nine different intents that flickered in his mind.
At this moment, Zhang Yu suddenly realized that the focus of the nine martial arts in the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram was on intent, not the techniques.
The cultivator's task is to ponder the meaning of the techniques while practicing them.
The killing intent that can conquer ten thousand troops, the fighting spirit of nine deaths but no regrets, the bravery of going forward without hesitation... The nine martial arts cultivate Martial Arts Intent, thus solidifying one's Dao Heart.
"This is not a martial art for combat or body refinement, but one that tempers the Dao Heart through Martial Arts Intent."
This is a Martial Arts Heart Method used to improve Dao Heart Level!
Martial Arts Intent, after being organized by the Ten Major Sects, refers to the collective term for martial arts forces such as Sword Intent, Fist Intent, and Blade Intent.
The basic function of Martial Arts Intent is to strengthen the spirit and solidify one's will, thus enhancing the cultivator's Dao Heart Level.
And for Golden Core True Men like Master Xinghuo, their Martial Arts Intent can even linger in a painting, affecting the spiritual consciousness of others.
At the same time, Zhang Yu's aura experienced a strong change as well.
Killing intent, fighting spirit, courage, valor... An immensely powerful aura emerged from within him, seemingly about to consolidate into his Martial Arts Intent at this moment.
Meanwhile, the man in the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram also became increasingly clear, even starting to appear in vivid colors, as if turning into a real person, intently watching the changes in Zhang Yu.
The people present who noticed this were taken aback; this was definitely the biggest reaction from the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram today.
Lian Tianji, Qian Shen, Bai Zhenzhen... all stared intently at Zhang Yu, each feeling the change in him, a single inconceivable thought rising in their minds.
"Is he really going to succeed?"
But in the next moment, Zhang Yu's transformation was abruptly interrupted, and the Martial Arts Intent that seemed about to coalesce vanished.
"What a shame, what a shame," a phrase appeared on the painting: "A talent born of heaven, loses by one move."
There wasn't any surprise on Zhang Yu's face.
Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique Level 0 (1/1, 8.3/8 Mana, 0.85/0.8 Physical Strength, 1/3 Level Dao Heart)
A martial art called Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique appeared on the Yu Shu.
This was a martial art that emerged on the Yu Shu after Zhang Yu repeatedly contemplated the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram, carefully watched many students' performances, and closely studied Bai Zhenzhen's video.
Unlike the martial arts Zhang Yu had learned before, this Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique required Mana, Physical Strength, and Dao Heart.
"Aside from practicing all these techniques in boxing, palm techniques, leg techniques, etc., it also requires 8 Mana, 0.8 Physical Strength, and 3 Level Dao Heart."
"I've met all the requirements except for the 3 Level Dao Heart..."
Zhang Yu's Dao Heart was only at Level 1.
Having tried it, he indeed got stuck at the last step.
"This Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique seems to be used for condensing Martial Arts Intent after reaching Dao Heart Level 3, to solidify one's will and refine one's Dao Heart."
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The requirement of 3 Level Dao Heart is so high, it's impossible for a first-year high school student three months into the school year to meet it, right?"
Li Xuelian looked at the failed Zhang Yu, her eyes sparkling with interest.
The plan she originally had flashed through her mind; she hadn't expected any of the first-year students present to succeed.
"According to the documents just sent from the security company, this person is Zhang Yu, a first-year student at Songyang High School."
"To achieve this level, he is truly a talent born of heaven."
Recalling Zhang Yu's earlier performance, she marveled in her heart, "Impressive, I almost missed it."
"He seems to have stiff movements, and every punch and kick looks awkward, yet he understands the intent hidden within them."
"This shows that he values intent over form and realized the mystery of the Heavenly Martial Heart Refinement Technique early on."
"Good, good, another talented disciple to add under father's tutelage."
In fact, after checking the profiles of the participants on-site, Li Xuelian felt that this test was unlikely to be successful.
After all, students who could learn the martial arts in the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram on-site either had prominent family backgrounds or were already in their second or third year and had signed contracts long ago, unlikely to come and become Master Xinghuo's disciple.
Finding a genius who could succeed in the Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique on-site was already very unlikely.
But that didn't mean no one could join under her father's tutelage.
If a first-year student present could withstand the impact of Martial Arts Intent, learn all the techniques on-site, and realize the mystery of Martial Arts Intent, even if they didn't succeed in the end, they would be an exceptionally talented individual.
If such a person came a year later, they would surely succeed in the Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique and also meet her father's criteria, but now it was a matter of finding him early while he hadn't yet grown to sign a contract with him.
She believed her father would be willing to accept such an excellent disciple as well.
In this case, the fact that this first-year student didn't succeed in the Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique wouldn't be a disadvantage but would be advantageous in lowering the signing price during the upcoming contract negotiations, in Li Xuelian's view.
Thinking of this, she had already smiled at Zhang Yu.
"This classmate, although you didn't actually succeed in the Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique, you've already understood its mystery. With time, succeeding in this martial art is just a matter of time."
"I'll ask my father if he's willing to accept you as a disciple."
Hearing these words, the crowd was once again astonished.
Lian Tianji looked towards Zhang Yu's direction and discreetly took a picture of him with his phone, intending to ask around about where this security guard had suddenly emerged as a formidable person.
Qian Shen looked at Zhang Yu incredulously, shouting in his heart, "Impossible! How could a person with 550 points be taken as a disciple by a Golden Core True Man? I must be dreaming, or is the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram still testing me?"
Bai Zhenzhen: "Did Yu Zi open some cheat?"
Seeing a good brother, who was once inferior to him in everything and owed debts left and right with him, suddenly soar high, Bai Zhenzhen found it very disconcerting.
Yu Zi, it's not that I don't wish you well. If you ranked in the top ten or top five of the grade, higher than before, below me, as a brother I would definitely wish you well.
But who asked you to dominate everyone, even surpassing me.
Yet, seeing so many people approach Zhang Yu to befriend him, Bai Zhenzhen thought to himself, "Once Zhang Yu joins under a Golden Core True Man, he'll surely garner a lot of investment, and then I must fleece him hard and borrow money from him."
But the next moment, he changed his mind, frowning, "But this Golden Core cultivation has already been halved, optimized by major sects, lacking resources and background. If Zhang Yu really joins, he'll be a workhorse for life."
"Forget it, as brothers, I should remind him not to be dazzled by those two words, Golden Core, and that he must refuse."
Meanwhile, Zhao Tianxing also widened his eyes, his mind blank for a moment, but soon recalling his advice to Zhang Yu just now, he felt awkward, "So embarrassing."
"The guy's a true genius, and when I said those things to him, he must have thought I was a clown."
As Bai Zhenzhen approached Zhang Yu, many students also gathered around him.
Some wanted to exchange contact information with Zhang Yu, some wanted to ask about the mysteries of the Celestial Martial Arts Diagram, and others wanted to take pictures with him.
At the same time, Li Xuelian had already stepped aside and called her father.
"Dad, I've found a good seedling here in Songyang City..."
