Chapter 85: Chapter 76: Killing Move - Whirlwind Thunder, Sports Meet (4K, Request for Monthly Pass)_2
"Even if it's just 'theoretically', doesn't the power of The Sixth Agency seem excessive?"
"The Sixth Agency was originally established temporarily to coordinate domestic forces; the plan was to disband it once the abnormal disasters from the Intersecting Boundaries were under control."
Wu Youqing spread his hands.
"As you can see, the problems with the Intersecting Boundaries have not been solved to this day, and new issues arise every day—Heretical God Cult, Martial Artists, Blessed Ones, private military corporations, and various terrorist organizations... The number of anomalies is only increasing."
"Therefore, The Sixth Agency has remained in existence until now."
Xue Jing mused, "The Sixth Agency has such extensive power—is the government not worried that it might get out of hand?"
Wu Youqing shook his head, "The top tier of the agency is the 'Institution Management Committee,' consisting of thirteen people, nearly all of whom reside in 'Cangting.'
"Even the chairperson of each generation of the committee is directly... there's no one above that person anymore."
She pointed upwards.
Xue Jing indicated that he understood.
In that case, he had understood.
The Sixth Agency was essentially the nation itself.
It was an official means used to legally and legitimately surpass all institutional constraints and directly mobilize national power.
Xue Jing's eyes revealed contemplation.
Although he expected the agency to be influential, he hadn't anticipated that it would be to such a degree.
"Alright, I had you come today mainly to remind you about the issue with White Crow and besides..."
Wu Youqing looked at him pensively.
Then shook his head again.
"Never mind, there's nothing else for now."
Xue Jing was somewhat puzzled but didn't inquire further.
He stayed a while longer, chatted with the young woman about home, and then left the library to return to his home.

Three days later.
Hidden Dragon Dojo.
In the training room, Xue Jing was practicing the 'Flesh Training' movement of the Armor Shaking Skill; each pause made his muscles roll and tremble like waves, making a swooshing sound.
Li Qi, seated in a wheelchair, was watching his progress, and after a while, nodded, saying, "It's about time. Your muscle strength should now be sufficient to withstand this move; give it a try."
Xue Jing nodded, took a deep breath, and activated his breathing skills.
The True Dragon inside him roared, moving throughout his body, causing all his muscles to suddenly tense up.
Afterward, the muscles in his right arm started wriggling from a point near his right shoulder, gradually revealing spiral indentations.
These indentations twisted, extending toward his palm, gradually converging as though several steel bars were being twisted together in the manner of wringing a towel.
All the spiral indentations ultimately converged, centering on the fist of his right hand.
Xue Jing's gaze intensified, and he swung this spiraled punch at the air!
"Boom!!"
This strike, surprisingly, created an explosive thunderous noise out of nowhere!
The air in front of Xue Jing was swept up by this punch, whirling and hissing as it struck the curtain five meters away.
The window was open at the time, and the violent air current caught the curtain, causing it to fly out the window, crackling as if it would fly away from its hooks.
"Excellent!"
Li Qi laughed and clapped, saying, "This is one of the Five Major Practices of Hidden Dragon School, Whirlwind Thunder!"
Xue Jing felt his right hand.
At this moment, his right hand was extremely sore, many parts of the muscles had torn, and his skin was covered in red and purple marks, the result of the muscle tears causing bruises.
Whirlwind Thunder, one of the Five Major Practices of Hidden Dragon School, corresponding to the 'Flesh Training' movement of Armor Shaking Skill.
The theory behind it involved injecting Compressed Strength into the muscles in a spiral form, condensing and compressing it, and finally unleashing a powerful strike.
It was the most basic yet powerful Burst Skill among the Five Major Practices, the ultimate in Rigid Force.
"Whirlwind Thunder is the easiest to learn among the Five Major Practices, but it also demands the most."
Li Qi laughed.
"This type of spirally compressed strength is practically limitless, provided your body can endure it. You could even unleash a force several times stronger than the punch just now."
"However, this move demands extremely high muscular strength, and right now you're just barely able to use it. Don't think about compressing the strength further, otherwise, it could cause your muscles to burst or even dissolve, which can be fatal."
Li Qi reminded.
Xue Jing nodded, "I'll remember that, Master."
"Hmm..." Li Qi pinched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said,
"Your progress is as quick as ever. At this rate, you'll soon move from the external to the internal and begin Organ Nourishing."
"Unfortunately, our Hidden Dragon School follows the external path and doesn't have much research on 'Organ Nourishing'."
Li Qi sighed.
"The true experts in 'Organ Nourishing' are the Martial Artists of the Taoist Sect. They possess a manuscript called 'Yellow Grannie Skill,' which is unparalleled for Martial Arts Organ Nourishing."
Xue Jing asked with curiosity, "Yellow Grannie Skill? That's a weird name."
Li Qi smiled and said, "The name isn't strange; you just haven't grasped its essence."
"In the Taoist practices, they liken the five organs inside the body to five different entities."
"Among them, the spleen is 'Yellow Grannie,' the lungs are 'Golden Gentleman,' the liver is 'Wood Mother,' the heart is 'Charming Lady,' and the kidneys are 'Red Child.'
"And Yellow Grannie, or the spleen, plays a crucial role in Taoist Organ Nourishing."
Li Qi, now enthusiastic, went on a roll:
"In the five organs, the spleen's role is to harmonize the balance of other organs, acting like a 'matchmaker.'
"In the Five Elements, the liver and lungs, namely Golden Gentleman and Wood Mother are incompatible; liver energy tends to rise, lung energy tends to fall, and their conflict leads to sickness."
"But Yellow Grannie, it can 'regulate the liver and lungs,' making them harmonious, essentially matchmaking the 'Golden Gentleman' and 'Wood Mother.'
"As the saying goes, 'Yellow Grannie mediates, Red Child and Charming Lady happily unite,' if Golden Gentleman and Wood Mother, this couple, are harmonious, then the heart and kidneys, the Red Child and Charming Lady, will be healthy."
"The Taoist Sect's 'Yellow Grannie Skill' bases on the spleen to regulate all the organs, ultimately benefiting the Five Major Practices from inside out, truly a unique internal cultivation technique in the world."
Xue Jing laughed, "Master, you seem to know a lot about this."
Li Qi waved his hand, saying, "When I was younger and handsome, a lot of girls liked me, including a little girl from the Taoist Sect... Unfortunately, relying on my youthful and robust body, I didn't pay attention to Organ Nourishing and failed to learn her 'Yellow Grannie Skill.'
Xue Jing blinked, "You had quite a few romantic debts, it seems."
Li Qi glared at him, "What romantic debts? I am a decent gentleman with proper morals, wholly devoted to your aunt, and never messed around. Don't talk nonsense, kid."
Xue Jing: "..."
"Alright, I got up too early today, need to catch up on some sleep. You keep practicing."
Li Qi waved his hand and wheeled away, leaving the training room.
After he left, Xue Jing circulated his strength to eliminate the bruising in the injured area of his right arm muscle.
With the enhancement of his health and Health Cultivation skills, plus the practice of Armor Shaking Skill and the Five Major Practices strengthening his body, his recovery abilities had now far exceeded the limits of ordinary people.
He could feel the torn muscles knitting back together, healing, and even becoming tougher.
However, it wasn't suitable to continue practicing Armor Shaking Skill for the time being.
Xue Jing thought for a moment, took a shower, changed out of his training garment, then left the Hidden Dragon Dojo, planning to go home.
As he reached the nearby bus stop and waited, his cell phone suddenly vibrated with a ringtone.
He pulled out his phone and saw an incoming call on the display.
It was their homeroom teacher, Du Shiwei.
Xue Jing's heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly remembered, today was supposed to be the school sports event...
He had promised Du Shiwei that he would attend, but had forgotten about it.
Xue Jing answered the call, cleared his throat, and said, "Hello, Mr. Du."
"Xue Jing, where are you? Why aren't you here yet?" Du Shiwei's voice sounded anxious.
"I'll be there soon, there's a traffic jam here," Xue Jing chuckled, hastily waving down a taxi.
"Don't worry, Mr. Du, I'll be there shortly."
