In order to prevent people who knew him from finding it too shocking to see his suddenly skyrocketing height, Qin Yuesheng utilized the method from the Profound Celestial Treasure Mirror to control his body’s bones, maximizing their interlocking to minimize gaps and achieve the effect of becoming shorter.

Of course, this method is only suitable for tall people to disguise themselves as shorter, not for short people to pretend to be taller, because the principle of becoming shorter is that your two bones interlock like folding the fingers of both hands together, making some changes based on the hardware you already have.

But short pretending to be tall would be making something out of nothing. Everyone knows that whether a person is tall or not depends on the length of their bones. Your original bone length is already there, so how much taller can you really get?

As soon as he entered Cyan Yang City, Qin Yuesheng immediately felt the gaze of pedestrians on the road towards him became somewhat strange.

Shock, admiration, incredulity, disbelief...

Many young women’s faces instantly turned bright red, their eyes sparkling as they looked at Qin Yuesheng, filled with affection.

At first, Qin Yuesheng hadn’t reacted, but he quickly got a bright idea, secretly thinking that this was not good.

He had just obtained the orange charm talent [Celestial Presence], which he had yet to fully adapt to, leading him to walk into Cyan Yang City completely unguarded, allowing many young women to see his extraordinarily handsome face.

Qin Yuesheng quickly took out a golden mask from the Celestial Demon waist bag and placed it on his face, immediately leaping onto a nearby roof to swiftly leave the area.

...

"The world is in chaos, soldiers bullying people; if you wish to have the ability to protect yourself in these turbulent times, training in martial arts is the only way, so you can protect yourself and your family."

"Come, join us at Wuding Boxing Club, learn superior boxing techniques, so you won’t be bullied by others."

When Qin Yuesheng returned to the Qin Mansion, he found a group of people who were clearly from out of town, holding banners and surrounding the entrance with a confident expression, shouting at the Qin Mansion guards.

Worried that they might be enemies, there were already more than ten guards holding sticks standing at the entrance of the Qin Mansion, looking very serious.

Facing their nagging, Qin Zheng, the head steward of the Qin Mansion, stood at the door and shouted loudly, "What Wuding Boxing Club? Get out of here quickly. Don’t you see what kind of place this is? Even if we were to practice martial arts, we wouldn’t look for you."

A burly man carrying a banner immediately replied unhappily, "Our Wuding Boxing Club is number one in Jiangnan. Our master Feng Chao with his Wind and Thunder Fist is unbeatable in Jiangnan’s martial arts world. If you know what’s good for you, send dozens of your people over to join us at the Wuding Boxing Club as disciples. We won’t charge you much, just a hundred silver taels per person."

Qin Zheng chuckled, "I thought it was some kind of jianghu power. How dare you come and cause a commotion at the gates of the Qin Mansion? It turns out you’re just a bunch of money-crazed frauds. Get lost! If you don’t leave now, don’t blame me for ordering a beating."

The burly man advanced instead of retreating, taking a step forward: "Our Wuding Boxing Club came here to recruit disciples as a courtesy to you, so don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. Hurry up and hand over the silver, otherwise I’ll bring my brothers and sisters to tear down your mansion gates."

Qin Zheng didn’t waste any more words and directly pointed at the burly man, shouting, "People, beat them for me!"

Immediately, the guards of the Qin family rushed out with their sticks, aiming fierce blows at the burly man.

From a distance, Qin Yuesheng watched this scene. As an expert of the Sixth Layer of the Internal Power Realm, he could easily see that the burly man had a solid foundation, indicating his skills in punching and kicking were not bad.

As the Qin Mansion guards’ sticks came down, the man reacted quickly, throwing the banner to a companion, and then reaching out to grab the sticks of two Qin Mansion guards, while ducking his head to avoid the attack from a third guard.

Then the man pulled and swung his arms, immediately seizing two sticks, disarming his opponents on the spot.

The Qin Mansion guards didn’t even have time to react, getting hit in the chest by the man’s palms in a blink, stumbling backward uncontrollably before falling onto the ground.

"Sir, your skills are impressive. Let me experience your technique." Just then, a figure came striking with bare fists, the left hand delivering a fierce punch to the burly man’s face while the right hand formed into a cone, lightly pointing at the left ribs of the burly man.

Recognizing this familiar stance, Qin Yuesheng immediately identified it as his entry-level martial art, Tiger Crane Double Form Fist.

And the person fighting was none other than Qin Yue, the junior escort who had taught him the Tiger Crane Double Form Fist and the Bear-Hugging Stance.

Qin Yue performed the Tiger Crane Double Form Fist with great skill, likely having spent considerable time immersed in it, executing each move smoothly and fluidly, immediately making the burly fighter from Wuding Boxing Club feel a bit pressured.

The two exchanged blows, countering each other’s moves, using force against force; after several exchanges, they seemed evenly matched with no clear winner.

Watching a fight between those who were not even external-strength Martial Artists was, at first glance, tolerable for Qin Yuesheng, but growing tedious soon after. Seeing that Qin Yue and the other man might not resolve anything even after fifty moves if they continued, he casually picked up a small stone and flicked it towards the battlefield.

The burly man was in the heat of battle with Qin Yue when he suddenly felt a surge of great force hitting his left leg’s acupuncture point, making his whole body abruptly stiffen, causing him uncontrollably to drop to one knee on the ground.
