73 Fourth Refinement!
“This is bad! The iron armored cavalry is heading toward the dojo!”
In the heavy rain, the entire White Flow Mountain was in an uproar.
One by one, the courtyard doors were knocked on, and the apprentices and disciples rushed out.
“How many people are there in the army?!” Rong Li caught a disciple who called out to him.
“The rain was too heavy, so I didn’t see clearly, but it should be at least four or five hundred…”
Rong Li was silent for a moment, then immediately said, “Everyone, follow me to the mountain gate!
As soon as he finished speaking, he went back to his room and put on a set of armor that he had never worn before. Then, he strode toward the mountain gate.
On the other side, Fang Han shouted when he heard the news and ran toward the mountain Gate.
…
Qi Yangbing pondered for a moment. He then blocked the dozen or so martial artists in the courtyard. “Follow me and take the small path. We’ll take their back path.”
…
Li Bowu, who was a few rooms away, got up, and gave the same order as Qi Yangbing.
However, he had not taken the rear route of the army, but instead led them to the side of the forest. The location of the ambush was also quite far from the army’s route, so they could advance and retreat at will.
…
In the heavy rain, the Changshan Dojo was in a state of panic.
But when they saw Qin Huai’s figure, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
However, when they saw the heavily injured Sun Yuanshan on Qin Huai’s back… that breath was back in their throat. Fortunately, their master had not suffered any fatal injuries.
Indeed, this night was full of ups and downs for the people of the Changshan Dojo…
“Thunderbolt Dojo! And it’s the f*cking Thunderbolt Dojo!” Fang Han’s eyes were full of killing intent. “One day, I’m going to take down the plaque of the Thunderbolt Dojo and use it as a pole to carry feces!”
Everyone from the Changshan martial arts school looked at Sun Yuanshan’s severely injured and weak appearance, and they were all angry.
“Tomorrow, follow me to the mine. No one is to hold back! Kill those sons of b*tches!”
“Beat those bastards to death!”
The disciples and apprentices were excited as they raised their arms and shouted.
“Senior Brother, it’s not the time yet. You need to be patient,” Qi Yangbing came out from behind the cavalry.
“If we endure it now, won’t we become grandsons?!” Fang Han looked at the weak Sun Yuanshan like a volcano that was about to erupt.
“Now that Master is injured, we are no match for the Thunderbolt Dojo. We need to think about this,” the eldest senior brother, Rong Li, said.
His prestige was second only to Sun Yuanshan, and he suppressed the anger of Fang Han and the disciples as soon as he opened his mouth.
“Furthermore, the great demon wave is already very close, so we cannot afford to have any more internal friction.”
Rong Li said in a low voice, “If we want to take a breath, we’ll have to count on the performance of the two junior brothers in the grand martial competition.”
Li Bowu arrived late. After listening to the grand martial competition that Rong Li mentioned, he was at a loss. A touch of resentment flashed in his eyes.
‘He didn’t even tell me, a hero on the eight martial roll, about such a big matter?’
…
The night of chaos was finally over.
The next morning, Qin Huai was woken up by Qi Yangbing.
“Junior Brother, the iron-armored cavalry at the foot of the mountain hasn’t left yet. Do you know what’s going on?” Qi Yangbing was a little worried.
“I’ll ask them.”
Qin Huai rushed to the iron armored cavalry’s camp at the foot of the mountain without stopping.
Entering the camp was extremely smooth, and Qin Huai was a familiar face to begin with. After what happened last night, the news spread in the army.
The soldiers guarding the camp saw Qin Huai from afar and opened the gate, their faces full of respect.
Qin Huai and the soldiers only needed to ask around to know.
The tiger battalion of the army led by Sun Tong simply stayed next to the White Flow Mountain to prevent the seven dojos from playing any more dirty tricks.
The one who gave the order was none other than his own disciple, the second young master of the city lord’s mansion, Hu Jinghai.
In the military camp, Qin Huai asked, “Did the city lord agree to your private mobilization of troops?”
“If Master can borrow five hundred soldiers for Grandmaster to cover a thousand li, then why can’t I borrow the same amount of soldiers to protect my master?” Hu Jinghai looked at Qin Huai with a straight face and said rather heroically, “It’s just a few bamboo whips. Besides, I also want to be influenced by Master and learn how to behave and do things.
“Master, you don’t have to worry about the food. I’ll take care of it! My family’s treasury is abundant, and we have many treasures hidden in it. We won’t be able to spend all of them even after a few lifetimes.”
The corner of Sun Tong’s mouth twitched as he listened to Hu Jinghai’s words. Was this something he could say?
Hu Jinghai’s expression was solemn. “I hope Master won’t chase me away!”
“Alright, I’ll accept your filial piety.”
Qin Huai felt that Hu Jinghai’s words did make sense. With the way the people from the Thunderbolt Dojo did things, it was possible that they would destroy the overall situation for the sake of some immediate benefits.
“In the following period of time, I’ll have to rely on Commander Sun!” Qin Huai cupped his fists at Sun Tong.
“I don’t dare, I don’t dare. It’s my good fortune to be able to help Grandmaster Qin.” Sun Tong waved his hand.
He was one of the few people who knew that Qin Huai had killed two fourth refinement martial artists in a row when he was in the third refinement. Therefore, he didn’t dare to underestimate Qin Huai.
After settling this matter, Qin Huai returned to the dojo.
…
Today, in the mine, the two major dojos had met with an accident.
They had an intense physical exchange in the mine, and even many instructors at the third refinement stage were involved.
On the first day, they each took away more than ten corpses.
In the next few days, it began to slow down, but there would be a large number of injured people every day. It was much more brutal than the days after Hong San’s death. However, it was still within an acceptable range.
Meanwhile, the Luo manor was not disturbed at all. After the Cui family was done, they continued to make the next order.
Many people realized that the city Lord’s mansion seemed to have the intention of relaxing the Great You’s taboo of wearing armors without restraint.
The purpose was also visible to the naked eye. It was to give Pingnan City a higher chance of winning when the great demon wave reached them.
The seven major martial arts centers also stopped causing trouble, and they cultivated in full swing every day. They even imitated the scene in the mine and had disciples from several big dojos practice together.
However, the effect was far from as good as the real feelings of the Changshan Dojo and the Thunderbolt Dojo. Everything seemed to have returned to peace, but everyone knew that this was the calm before the storm.
Qin Huai continued to walk around the drill ground, go to the mines, and give armor as usual…
The cold wind of late autumn had quietly sent away more than twenty days of time.
The long robe on Qin Huai’s body also became thicker.

Late at night, Qin Huai was sitting cross-legged on his bed.
“I’ve finally entered the fourth refinement realm. The four-directional tiger-wolf technique has also reached level 20…”
The five white dragons in his body changed from a ring to a ball of lightning, and the flow of his aura became smoother.
Qin Huai’s qi and blood also seemed to have become more active as the four-directional tiger-wolf technique improved.
His vitality, which was close to 52 points, had already reached the threshold of a fifth refinement martial artist.
As for him, who had activated his boiling blood and blood dragon form, he would be able to kill a fourth refinement martial artist without even using the five white dragons and fight against ordinary fifth refinement martial artists.
“The only pity is that the blood heart technique is still in the same place. I’m afraid it’ll take some time to use the rising dragon as a general attack.”
Qin Huai was just about to go to sleep when someone knocked on the door carefully.
“Come in.” Qin Huai sat up.
The person who entered was the social butterfly, Sun Ziyao.
Sun Ziyao sneakily moved closer to Qin Huai’s ear. “Guess what, Senior Brother Qin, a senior brother found two fingers in the mine today… ”
“Get to the point. Don’t leave me hanging.” Qin Huai interrupted his grandson’s mysterious act.
Sun Ziyao coughed lightly before saying, “The two fingers that were discovered… There were signs of it being gnawed on, and they’re the marks of human teeth!”
Hearing this, Qin Huai immediately perked up.
