Xu Yan sat down with a solemn look on his face, watching these Scholars of Martial Arts, all of whom were obsessed with the Martial Arts, and may have unique understandings of it.

Or they may have practiced some impressive Cultivation Techniques. “Strange, is there not a single one who cultivates the true Martial Arts?” Xu Yan scanned the scholars with a frown, wondering silently, “Does the Seven-star Study Palace lack true Martial Arts as well? If that’s the case, the martial artists of the Inner Realm are truly pitiful!

“These are all martial arts enthusiasts. If I tell them the truth, that they’re practicing false martial arts, they probably won’t be able to withstand the shock.

“So, I will just expound on the basic principles of the martial arts and avoid mentioning truth and falsehood, so they won’t be overwhelmed.

“Although they are cultivating the false Martial Arts, with intensive study over time, they may have some unique insights.”

As Xu Yan thought this, he brightened up and looked forward to what he might learn from this discussion of Martial Arts.

“Should the young friend explain his understanding of the Martial Arts first, or should we begin?”

One of the Scholars of Martial Arts asked.

“You are older, you start.”

Said Xu Yan.

“Then I shall start. I’ve always believed that Martial Arts is about strengthening oneself, seeking self-transcendence through cultivation, starting from the Ninth Grade of body refining, building up body structure, strengthening Qi…” The Scholar of Martial Arts who spoke first began to explain his understanding of every stage of Martial Arts.

Xu Yan listened quietly. Although he already had a general idea of Inner Realm Martial Arts, he didn’t know the details of the differences between each stage. Hearing the explanation of the Scholar of Martial Arts made Xu Yan understand the Inner Realm Martial Arts in greater detail.

“The reason why my master doesn’t talk about true and false Martial Arts is that the Inner Realm Martial Arts is actually a complete system, just not perfect.

“Or to say, it does not cultivate from the core.

“Ninth Grade, for example, is about refining the body, only strengthening the body, fortifying Qi, strengthening muscles and bones, but not refining the skin, bones, and internal organs.

“It seems to only practice on the surface, without penetrating into the depths.” Xu Yan sighed as he listened.

The first Scholar of Martial Arts spoke from the Ninth Grade realm and continued through to the Grandmaster realm.

I his was the first time Xu Yan had fully understood the cultivation of the Inner Realm martial artists. He sighed with emotion. “Although the system is comprehensive, the practice always feels superficial, and as a result, it is not false to consider them false Martial Arts.”

After the first Scholar of Martial Arts finished explaining, the second, third…

One after another, the Scholars of Martial Arts spoke, each explaining the cultivation of Martial Arts. Each method of cultivation had its differences, but none of them transcended the framework of the Inner Realm Martial Arts. “Young friend, it’s your turn!”

After the last Scholar of Martial Arts finished his explanation, he smiled and looked at Xu Yan.

Xu Yan nodded. He had also gained from this discussion. These Scholars of Martial Arts, obviously had a deeper and more detailed understanding of Inner Realm Martial Arts than ordinary martial artists, which gave him some inspiration.

“Martial Arts, the primary concern is the foundation. My master once said, ‘The giant tree that can be embraced grows from a tiny sprout; a terrace nine stories high starts from the accumulation of earth.’ Therefore, the beginning of Martial Arts lies in refining the skin, bones, and internal organs…”

Xu Yan said solemnly.

All the Scholars of Martial Arts were puzzled, Fu Yuntian, who was standing by, was also bewildered.

Skin refining? Bone refining? Internal organ refining? How do you do that? “Young friend, wait a moment, what is this about refining the skin, bones, and internal organs? Is Martial Arts cultivated in this way from the beginning?” A Scholar of Martial Arts asked in confusion.

“Absolutely!”

Xu Yan confirmed seriously. “The real Martial Arts, from inside to the outside, from the outside to the inside, involves the overall refinement of oneself, transcending the mortal coil, striving for immortality!”

The Scholars of Martial Artists swallowed. This goal seemed a bit too lofty.

From ancient times until now, who could attain immortality?

“Young friend, could you talk about the skin refining part?”

A Scholar of Martial Arts asked curiously.

I he cultivation method they had never heard of triggered their curiosity. “Skin refining starts with sensing one’s blood Qi, using it to refine the skin’s membrane. Once the skin refining process is completed, common blades and swords find it difficult to penetrate…”

Explained Xu Yan.

“Impossible!”

A Scholar of Martial Arts refuted him emotionally, “Even a Third Grade Martial Artist, relying on his own physical prowess alone, cannot be impervious to blades and swords. This is just skin refining, which, according to you, is the first step in Martial Arts. It’s impossible for it to be resistant to blades and swords.”

The others nodded in agreement.

Xu Yan looked at them with pity. It was terrifying to be a frog in the well. If you tell him that the sky is vast, he would immediately deny it and insist that the sky is only this big!

“What kind of look is that?”

The Scholar of Martial Arts, with dark circles under his eyes, said discontentedly.

“Being impervious to ordinary blades and swords after skin refining is not surprising. As for the Third Grade Martial Artists you mentioned, their method of cultivation is different. The toughness of their skin is only slightly more than that of ordinary people, so naturally, it resists injuries from blades and swords.

“Just because you have never seen, never heard, does not mean it doesn’t exist.”

Xu Yan put away his ‘looking at frogs in a well’ eyes and said. “Impossible, I absolutely don’t believe it. And what the hell is this blood Qi?

How do you use it to refine the skin membrane? It doesn’t make sense!”

The Scholar of Martial Arts shook his head.

“Don’t interrupt, let the young friend continue.”

Another Martial Arts Scholar said discontentedly.

“Alright, please go on.”

Xu Yan continued, “After refining the skin, you refine the bone. Again, bone refining is divided into Iron Bones, Copper Bones, Gold Bones, and Jade Bones. Iron Bones are just ordinary, Copper Bones are quite good, while Gold Bones, once formed, can remain intact for thousands of years in the ground, as for Jade Bones… I think there is no need to mention..”
