Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School

Chapter 449: Closed Doors of Longxing Martial Arts School

Jian Ai was a little surprised. Were all the martial arts schools in Baiyun City gathered here?

“Lord Si, there are many martial arts schools here,” Chi Yang also noticed and couldn’t help but say.

Si Yuehan answered and explained, “This was originally the origin of Baiyun City’s traditional Chinese martial arts schools. In the past, all the martial arts schools here taught traditional Chinese martial arts.”

“And now, as you can see, these martial arts schools have started to teach Taekwondo and judo.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Si Yuehan said again, “It should be in front.”

After driving for another two hundred meters, the car finally stopped in front of a vermillion door.

There were eleven stone steps in front of the door, and two majestic stone lions stood on both sides.

They alighted from the car, and Jian Ai couldn’t help but look up. A black plaque hung above the door, and the words “Longxing Martial Arts School” were written in gold paint.

However, the gold paint on the words was mottled, revealing some age.

Unlike the other martial arts schools that had their doors wide open, the doors of Longxing Martial Arts School were tightly shut. There was no sound inside. Even Jian Ai, who had strong hearing, could not hear a thing.

She felt a little nervous. Could the martial arts school have closed down?

The three of them went up the stone steps together. On the right side of Longxing Martial Arts School was a martial arts school called Zhenhua Martial Arts Hall. At this moment, three youths in judo clothes were gathered and chatting at the door.

One of them noticed that Jian Ai and the rest had gone up the steps of Longxing Martial Arts School and couldn’t help but raise his chin at the remaining two people.

They frowned and looked up. One of them, a youth around sixteen years old, couldn’t help but mutter, “These people aren’t from Longxing Martial Arts School!”

It was not a question, but a statement.

The other two nodded affirmatively. “No.”

The reason they were so certain was that the number of disciples in Longxing Martial Arts School could be counted with ten fingers. It was impossible for them to not remember.

“Don’t tell me they want to be disciples?” Another ten-year-old child couldn’t help but say, but his tone was filled with mockery.

The last youth was about thirteen years old. When he heard this, he couldn’t help but laugh. “Stop teasing. This Longxing Martial Arts School is closed every day. They’re afraid that other martial arts schools will challenge them. They’re so cowardly. Who would still register themselves there?”

Challenging other martial arts schools was a tradition that had been passed down among martial arts schools for almost a hundred years.

If a martial arts master wanted to earn money and take in disciples, the most direct way was to make the martial arts school famous in the circle. Where did this fame come from? It was naturally earned by challenging other martial arts schools!

The tradition of challenging martial arts schools had been prevalent since the establishment of the martial arts culture. A hundred years ago, or even decades ago, for such challenges between martial arts schools, a life-and-death contract had to be signed. If one accidentally crippled or died in a competition, the opponent did not have to bear any responsibility.

However, it was different now. In a lawful society, human lives were greater than the heavens. The life-and-death contract between martial arts schools had no legal effect, so it could not be counted.

However, there was still a culture of challenging martial arts schools. In today’s society, it was called exchange of pointers. Most of them stopped when the outcome was more or less determined. Even if they were injured, they would not die.

There were nineteen martial arts schools in the surroundings, and this Longxing Martial Arts School had been passed down by a martial arts family for over a hundred years. However, things were different now. Under the impact of foreign martial arts, Longxing Martial Arts School was unwilling to give up on traditional Chinese martial arts and refused to change its teaching model. Now, the school was in a bleak state, and it had been two years since they recruited new students. It had also gone through fourteen consecutive defeats.

Moreover, the other martial arts schools challenged them. Longxing Martial Arts School was unwilling to admit defeat and had no choice but to accept the challenge.
