Hearing this, Ma Yuankai's eyes bulged. "No way to handle it? Why?"

"The records on our end show that at 7:31 this morning, Zhang Beixing and Liu Yi alighted at Chang'an West Station. After their arrival, our nearby officers were alerted by the notifier and went immediately to conduct an inquiry and registration. During this process, Mr. Zhang Beixing explicitly stated his purpose for coming was to challenge martial arts schools. This purpose has been officially recorded. According to Article 113 of our Great Xia's '2018 Special Registered Personnel Handling Regulations'..."

The operator rattled on, citing specific laws and regulations to explain to Ma Yuankai why they couldn't intervene.

Ma Yuankai wasn't listening to any of it.

All he could think about was one thing: Zhang Beixing wouldn't be punished, and his last resort was now useless!

"I...you..."

THUMP—

Overcome by a surge of rage, Ma Yuankai lost his composure. His eyes rolled back, and he stiffly toppled backward.

He had fainted from sheer anger!

Luckily, there was a tree behind him. And, fortunately, the phone call was still ongoing.

Otherwise, if he had fallen on a concrete floor with no one around, even though his physical condition was excellent and comparable to that of a young man, he would have truly suffered!

「...」

Zhang Beixing had no idea what was happening with Ma Yuankai.

Of course, even if he did know, he wouldn't care.

After all, it wasn't I, Zhang Beixing, who drove Ma Yuankai to this state. It was purely Ma Yuankai's own pettiness, clinging to the matter and working himself up into such a state. I, Zhang Beixing, am a law-abiding citizen who respects the elderly and cares for the young—a truly good person!

Besides, compared to worrying about Ma Yuankai's condition, there was something more urgent for Zhang Beixing to attend to: organizing the Xingyi Fist techniques he had surreptitiously learned from Ma Yuankai.

What Zhang Beixing had jotted down in the arena was merely the most simplified version—purely stick-figure illustrations. Never mind others; even Zhang Beixing himself would be baffled if he set it aside for a while and tried to decipher it later.

To avoid such a situation and ensure his dojo challenge hadn't been in vain, Zhang Beixing found it necessary to further refine these stick-figure illustrations and flesh them out.

Thus, after returning to the hotel, Zhang Beixing began to embellish and enrich the content. This was so he could review it after defeating martial artists nationwide and use it to break through to the Great Grandmaster realm.

Liu Yi saw that Zhang Beixing was busy and did not disturb him. Liu Yi simply stepped out to answer a call. Upon returning, he settled at his desk and also got busy.

This went on for three to four hours, until Zhang Beixing, relying on his memory, had recorded all the Xingyi Fist techniques he had observed from Ma Yuankai in a notebook.

After reviewing it and confirming there were no errors, Zhang Beixing looked up, rubbed his tired eyes, and stretched lazily.

He was just about to say something to Liu Yi when he noticed that Liu Yi had, at some point, already packed his luggage.

Zhang Beixing was stunned. "Teacher Liu, what are you doing? Are we keeping up this pace? We just finished with the Primordial School, and now we're off to challenge other dojos already?"

"Challenge, my ass!" Liu Yi said frankly, a hint of helplessness in his voice. "There's something at our school; the principal just called, urgently needing me back to handle it. Then, the Yanjing Martial Arts Association also called, wanting to discuss some things. Now that the Primordial School matter is settled, the rest is up to you. It's not convenient for me to follow you anymore."

The school matter was manageable; with his relationship with the president of Shi University, he could easily deal with it. It was primarily the Yanjing Martial Arts Association. Ever since he became a Grandmaster, they had been relentlessly pestering him, and it was still the same now. They had called again today, and Liu Yi felt he had to deal with this first, or it would never end. Secondly, since Zhang Beixing was going to challenge martial artists across the country, it was inconvenient and rather pointless for him, as his master, to accompany him further.

Hearing Liu Yi's words, Zhang Beixing understood. "I see. Shall I see you off?"

"No need, just get some rest. By the way, I just sent you a document on WeChat. It has the locations of various dojos, schools, and sects across Great Xia, which should help you. Alright, that's all. I'm off!"

With that, Liu Yi, under Zhang Beixing's gaze, quickly picked up his luggage and left.

Zhang Beixing didn't say anything. After all, he had intended to challenge the entire country alone from the start.

Locations of dojos, schools, and sects across the country, huh? Zhang Beixing looked at the file Liu Yi had sent on WeChat, muttering to himself. He decided to study it and figure out the best way to proceed with his challenges, starting from Chang'an.

With this in mind, Zhang Beixing took out his phone, ordered some takeaway, sat on his bed, and began to study the document on his phone.

He looked at it for half an hour. Through the document organized by Teacher Liu, Zhang Beixing gained a clearer plan for his upcoming schedule.

I need to aim for swift victories, no dawdling or delays. Strike while the iron is hot, before the various schools and sects learn of my intentions and take precautions.

But then, a problem arose. With his current strength, challenging others... seemed somewhat inappropriate! Especially now that he had mastered the external release of Vital Energy and his martial arts cultivation had reached the Grandmaster realm.
