"Exceptional potential?"
"How did you do it?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Ling's voice raised a pitch, her gaze at Lin Qi full of disbelief.
Although she already knew that Lin Qi's potential wasn't low, that his speed of improvement was fast, and he could even take down an Initial Stage Martial Artist like Watu, making it very likely for him to become a Genius Martial Artist in the future.
But in her view, that was just a possibility.
In the entire Chasing Light City, there were only a few Genius Martial Artists every three years, each one like a sun high in the sky, utterly unreachable.
To become a Genius Martial Artist requires, apart from mastering highly difficult Training Techniques, mastering various powerful Martial Arts at a high level to strengthen the body and enhance physical potential, supported by a substantial amount of resources.
She had thoroughly investigated Lin Qi's situation; his background was very mysterious, with no information from the past at all, as if he had suddenly appeared in Chasing Light City. The Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall he established was also very mysterious, often showing up with a group that wasn't part of the Chasing Light City's vagabonds, yet their capabilities were not to be underestimated.
It was evident that Lin Qi was backed by powerful forces beyond Chasing Light City, and he certainly wasn't short of resources.
However, improving physical potential requires personal effort and talent. Not to mention the risks associated with learning those advanced Training Techniques, simply bringing Martial Arts to the rumored Realm of Perfection requires not only talent but also a lot of painstaking efforts, day after day, to achieve it.
But Lin Qi, an ordinary person turned Martial Artist, how much time has he spent on just improving his physical aptitude, let alone honing his Martial Arts?
Moreover, to become a Genius Martial Artist, one often needs to have several Martial Arts reach the Realm of Perfection, not just one. Otherwise, with a population of millions in Chasing Light City, there would be more than just a few emerging every three years.
"It's nothing, just a matter of practice," Lin Qi said without hesitation.
"Still, you need to practice more?" Xia Ling fell silent upon hearing this, deciding to practice Martial Arts more diligently after she returned.
Previously, she slept only four hours a day. After hearing Lin Qi's words, she decided to sleep only two hours a day from now on to have more time for practicing Martial Arts.
Lin Qi nodded, thinking Xia Ling wasn't wrong. Although she slightly misunderstood his meaning, generally, she was right.
Soon, Feng Geling brought Lin Qi and Xia Ling to the front hall. Under Feng Geling's Steward status, the efficiency of the Martial Artist Association's front desk work was exceptional, reducing what usually took an hour to just a few minutes.
"Xia Ling, registration and approval are complete. You should make a good effort afterward," Feng Geling said with concern, knowing Xia Ling had a close relationship with Lin Qi. "If you can leverage the Five Cities Grand Competition to break through and become a Martial Artist, this year isn't without hope for the Genius Training Camp."
"Lord Feng Geling, I understand, I will work hard." Xia Ling nodded, a flicker of ambition igniting in her beautiful eyes.
The deadline for the Genius Training Camp's assessment registration is after the Five Cities Grand Competition. If she can break through and become a Martial Artist with high potential by then, she might have a chance to enter the Genius Training Camp.
Once admitted to the Genius Training Camp, it would be like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, a sky-high opportunity.
"You still don't understand my meaning." Feng Geling gave Xia Ling a glance, whispered beside her, "You have a Genius Martial Artist beside you, this is your chance. If you can consult more and learn some skills, getting into the Genius Training Camp is a certainty."
Suddenly Xia Ling realized, her eyes brightening as she looked gratefully at Feng Geling and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Lord Feng Geling."
Having been shocked by Lin Qi too many times before, she completely forgot that Lin Qi himself was a treasure trove. If she could dig it out properly, she might really get into the Genius Training Camp and leave behind the suburban life to enter the high circles of the city center.
"Hall Master Lin, I heard the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall also teaches others Martial Arts. I wonder if I can hire Hall Master Lin to personally teach me Black Obsidian's Martial Arts, and I'm willing to pay ten times the market price." Xia Ling looked at Lin Qi, her tail swaying on the ground, clearly both excited and anxious inside.
Although learning Black Obsidian Martial Arts would definitely take quite some time to catch up to her current level, receiving guidance from a Genius Martial Artist like Lin Qi would surely be better than hiring Martial Artists from suburban halls.
"Hire me for training?" Lin Qi shook his head and directly refused, "I'm afraid Miss Xia will be disappointed. The Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall has too many things I need to handle now, and I won't be available for a long time. However, if Miss Xia is interested in our Black Obsidian Martial Arts, we have many skilled disciples adept at teaching Martial Arts. They can also teach Miss Xia well, and it won't disappoint."
It was a jest to ask him to teach others.
If it were just teaching some Basic or Intermediate Apprentices, it would be fine, but to instruct someone like Xia Ling, an aspiring Martial Artist, his teaching would pale in comparison to those who have personally experienced various challenges.
And Xia Ling clearly has high expectations for Martial Arts proficiency; otherwise, she wouldn't consider hiring him. She would be better off finding those Martial Artists from suburban halls to coach her.
