Two hours later.
The members of the Ancient Martial Arts Association fell silent after listening to Ye Ming impart four new "ancient martial arts techniques."
It wasn't for any other reason than that they had never seen or heard of these techniques before.
It was known that everyone present was a core high-ranking official of the Ancient Martial Arts Association and was mostly aware of the existing ancient martial arts techniques.
Yet, what Ye Ming was imparting now, not only had they never heard of, but there wasn't even a single mention of it in the history of ancient martial arts.
If it were just one or two techniques like this, it could still be understood.
But all the "ancient martial arts techniques" Ye Ming had imparted since his live streams began, they had not been able to find any trace of.
This was a bit too bizarre.
At this moment, Gu Taiyi played a separate video of Ye Ming's previous live stream, signaling everyone to watch.
The content of the video was Ye Ming's statement during yesterday's live stream that the "self-cultivation knowledge" he imparted was "ancient martial arts techniques."
In addition to this, it explained that the strange energy produced in people's bodies through these cultivation methods was "true qi."
"Bring the person in!"
At this moment, Gu Taiyi spoke.
A person?
What person?
Everyone was confused.
A moment later, a man in a black t-shirt was brought in.
When the man saw so many people present, his legs almost went weak.
He had never seen such a scene before.
He had been eating at a restaurant while watching Nangong Qianyu's live stream.
But suddenly two people came in, and before he could react, he passed out.
When he woke up!
He was already at the headquarters of the Ancient Martial Arts Association.
"Esteemed... esteemed sirs, if... if I have offended you in any way, please tell me, and I will surely..."
The man said tremblingly.
"Young man! Rest assured, we mean you no harm!" Gu Taiyi stepped forward, gently patted his shoulders, and chuckled, "We just want to ask you some questions. Just answer them truthfully! Afterwards, I am willing to offer one million Hua coins as compensation!"
One million Hua coins!
This was not a small sum.
Indeed, after hearing this, the man was no longer as nervous and scared.
Of course, there was more helplessness.
After all, this was their territory, and he had no other choice.
He just had to cooperate obediently.
Getting paid!
That would be best!
If the other party was just joking, then there was nothing he could do.
"Okay! I... I will definitely cooperate!" the man replied in a low voice.
"Good!"
Gu Taiyi smiled slightly, pointed to the big screen, and said, "First, the first question: have you practiced the ancient martial arts techniques imparted by this young man?"
Young man?
The man looked at the big screen and saw that it was his admired "Teacher Ye."
"Isn't that Teacher Ye?" the man said, "Of course I have practiced those ancient martial arts techniques! Not only me, but all my friends around me are also cultivating them."
Hearing this answer, Gu Taiyi seemed satisfied and then continued to ask, "Did you experience any discomfort during your practice?"
Hearing this question, everyone present looked at the man.
This answer was crucial.
After all, they had not practiced it themselves and did not know the specific effects.
"Discomfort?"
The man quickly shook his head and said, "No! After cultivating these ancient martial arts techniques, my body has improved a lot compared to before. Not only that, but my physical fitness has also increased in all aspects!"
As soon as he talked about these techniques, the man's words became like a floodgate opening, and he spoke volubly, "Let me tell you! Teacher Ye's techniques are magical! After we cultivate, not only is it greatly beneficial to our bodies! Even our emotions are much better than before."
"Speaking of emotions! It reminds me of my girlfriend! She used to be so temperamental! But ever since..."
"Stop! Young man! We understand!"
Gu Taiyi quickly interrupted.
He was afraid that if the other person continued talking, it would be dark by then.
He was talking so well before, why did it sound like he was advertising for Teacher Ye?
"Uh! Didn't I just want you to know more about the miraculous aspects of Teacher Ye's techniques!"
Through this exchange, the man was no longer so nervous.
"We'll talk about that later! Now I have one last question for you!"
At this moment, Gu Taiyi's expression became serious, "Now, when you circulate those techniques within your body, do you also feel a strange sensation?"
This was the fundamental reason for bringing this man here.
They wanted to know if, as Ye Ming claimed, true qi had been generated in these people's bodies.
If so, then things would be a bit complicated.
Upon hearing this, the man's eyes lit up and he said, "Teacher Ye said that is the true qi that only ancient martial artists can possess!" Speaking of which, the man looked at the others with a hint of pride, "Let me tell you, I already have true qi in my body. It's a sure thing that I'll become a true ancient martial artist! As for you guys..."
His disdainful gaze seemed to say, "You're all so old, you probably have no hope of becoming ancient martial artists."
Seeing this, everyone almost exploded.
My dear young man!
Before you stands a Martial God, and the others present are at least Martial Sect powerhouses.
Is it really appropriate for you to look at them like that?
Of course! If the man had known this, he would have likely fainted on the spot.
"Cough cough!"
Gu Taiyi was also quite helpless. Looking at the man, he said, "Since you already have... true qi! May I inspect it?"
Being stared at so intently by an old man like Gu Taiyi, the man instinctively took two steps back, a little uneasy, "Inspect! How do you inspect it? Don't do anything rash!"
As he backed away, he even crossed his arms over his shoulders, looking like a frightened and delicate woman.
Seeing his demeanor, several black lines instantly appeared on Gu Taiyi's forehead.
He almost slapped him.
"Come here!"
He no longer cared about the man's feelings, and with a swift gesture of his right palm, a terrifying suction directly pulled the man over.
"Ah! No! You can't treat me like this!"
The man cried out in shock.
But these words sounded so... vivid!
Everyone couldn't help but laugh and cry.
And Gu Taiyi, upon hearing these words, had even more black lines appear on his forehead.
"What a rascal."
So, he gave the man no chance to resist and directly used his true qi to restrain him.
He also sealed his mouth.
For fear that he would continue to shout.
As Gu Taiyi's true qi entered the man's body, it quickly located his dantian.
"There is indeed something unusual!"
Gu Taiyi detected an energy fluctuation.
But as he investigated that trace of energy, his brow slowly furrowed tighter.
Several minutes later, Gu Taiyi withdrew his true qi, his face dark, and said:
"That is not true qi at all!"
