Illicit Relationship

"Xiao Tian, how skilled are you in martial arts?" Zhao Chen inquired. "I mean what is your current level?"

"I think, I'm at the low-level master stage, but I'm not sure." Xiao Tian had never tested his level, so he was not sure about his current rank. However, he was sure that he was at least at the low-level master stage.

"Have you never tested your level before?" because Xiao Tian was not sure about his level, Zhao Chen suspected that Xiao Tian never tested his strength before.

"No." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer.

"Do you want to test your level now?" Zhao Chen inquired.

Instead of answering, Xiao Tian asked, "Does the Zhao family have the tools to test someone's level?"

"Yes." Zhao Chen gave an honest answer. "If you want, we can test your level now."

"Sure." Xiao Tian replied.

"Follow me." Zhao Chen said.

Then they headed to the building which was located in the eastern part of the Zhao family's home. The building was quite large and had three floors.

From the outside, the building looked like it was built of wood, but from the inside, it could be seen that the building was built using cement.

Not only that, but all rooms were also filled with modern furniture. There was even an elevator in the building.

Since the test room was on the second floor, they went straight to the elevator.

'Oh! Are they going to test their level too?'

After they reached the second floor, Xiao Tian saw about twenty disciples. Because they were on the test floor, he thought they were going to test their level like him.

"Greeting Shifu. Greeting master Zhao. Greeting young master Zhao." all disciples said in unison.

"Oh! Do you want to test your level too?" Zhao Chen inquired.

"Yes, Shifu." All the disciples answered in unison.

Zhao Chen was pleased after hearing their words because, with this, the Zhao family would become stronger again. "I want to test Xiao Tian's level, so I will be cutting the line now. You don't mind it, do you?"

"No, Shifu." Once again, they answered in unison.

They suddenly wanted Xiao Tian to test his level immediately because they were curious about his strength.

'Is he already at the master stage?'

Those were the words that appeared in their minds. Because Xiao Tian had defeated Dandan, they were sure that Xiao Tian was at least already at the high-level disciple stage. Some of them even suspected that Xiao Tian was already at the master stage.

Then they entered the huge glass room. inside the room, various kinds of tools were neatly arranged. In the middle of the room, there was a standing punching bag with a 25 inches monitor above it.

"In order to know your level, we need to test your strength, speed, and reflexes. This standing punching bag has sensors inside it. It can measure the strength of your attack accurately. After you hit this punching bag, Your attack power score will be displayed on the monitor." Zhao Chen spoke as he pointed his right index finger at the monitor which was hanging on the ceiling.

Zhao Chen then continued explaining, "As you know, martial artists at the disciple stage, their scores are between 60-100 while those at the master stage have the scores of 110-200. As for the grandmaster stage, their scores are between 210-350 or maybe even more."

Actually, Xiao Tian knew about it a few days ago when Mu Huo explained it to him. Mu Huo said to him that the score was from 1 - 500. Mu Huo told him that martial artists at the low-level disciple stage had scores between 60-70, while those at the mid-level disciple stage had scores of 75-85. As for the high-level disciple stage, their scores were 90-100.

For martial artists at the master stage. Martial artists at the low-level master stage had scores between 110-130 and those at the mid-level had scores of 135-160. As for the high-level master stage, their scores were between 170-200.

'If my memory serves me right, elder Zhao is at high-level grandmaster stage, so his score should be around 300-350.'

On his way to Zhao Sheng's house, Lan Ruoxi told Xiao Tian that Zhao Chen was a martial artist at a high-level grandmaster stage.

Xiao Tian remembered that a low-level grandmaster stage had scores between 210-250 and the scores of a mid-level grandmaster stage were between 255-295.

"You can test your strength now." Zhao Chen spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "You can choose whether you want to kick it or punch it. Just hit this punching bag as hard as you can."

"All right." After saying that, Xiao Tian stood in front of the standing punching bag.

Because Xiao Tian wanted to test his strength, Zhao Chen and the others instantly made space for him.

"What do you think his score will be?"

"I think his score will be around between 90-100."

"I think so too."

"But didn't he defeat Dandan last month? Dandan is a martial artist at the high-level disciple stage so I think Xiao Tian is at a low-level master stage."

"Did you forget that he was using a wooden sword at that time?"

"Ah, you are right."

One by one the disciples voiced out their curiosity. They even began to guess his score. Some of them thought Xiao Tian's score would be around 90-100. But some of them also thought that his strength was between 110-130.

At this moment, Zhao Xun and Zhao Chen were paying attention to Xiao Tian carefully. Like their disciples, they were also curious about Xiao Tian's strength.

Even though Moon Sword Martial Arts focused on speed and reflex, but their strength wasn't bad either.

I think his score will be around 90-110. Zhao Xun thought to himself.

He knew that Moon Sword Martial Arts was focused on speed and reflex, so Zhao Xun was sure that Xiao Tian's strength was not high.

"Young master Zhao, what is your score?" Lan Ruoxi inquired.

"My score is 131." Zhao Sheng gave an honest answer.

Zhao Chen turned his head towards his grandson and spoke, "Brat, if you practice martial arts seriously, your current strength won't be that low."

"Shut up, old man!" Zhao Sheng answered instantly.

"Hehe." Lan Ruoxi giggled after hearing Zhao Sheng's words.

"You can start now, Xiao Tian." Zhao Chen spoke.

After nodding his head, Xiao Tian began to focus. At this moment, a memory of his master from his past life suddenly appeared.

"Chen, if you want to beat your opponent with one hit, you need to gather your energy on a single point." His master said, "Put all your energy in your arms if you want to punch your opponent. The same goes if you want to kick your opponent. Breath, posture, speed, and concentration are important in this. Don't ever forget about this."

Xiao Tian shut his eyes and took a deep breath before exhaling it slowly. He repeated the same process three times before finally gathering his energy in his right leg.

Because his kick was stronger than his punch, Xiao Tian decided to kick the standing punching bag.

At this moment, everyone was focused on Xiao Tian. None of them talked or moved. The noisy room instantly became quiet as if no one was in the room.

As soon as Xiao Tian opened his eyes, he instantly raised his right leg and threw a high kick at the punching bag.

*Bang!

The sound of him kicking the punching bag echoed in the room.
