I Can Extract Everything

Heavenly Martial Hall is a place for people to practice martial arts. Most hunters of Maple Town trained and hailed from here, including Qin Yi.

When Qin Yi entered the hall, he saw many youngsters vigorously practicing martial arts.

This scene was strangely familiar to the scene within the sect; it somehow made Qin Yi have an urge to extract them.

Qin Yi shook his head as he chuckled.

"Hey, isn't that Qin Yi?"

Suddenly, a young man carrying a quiver of arrows spoke from afar.

Qin Yi turned around and found a familiar figure.

"Jiang Wei."

"Qin Yi, did you just come back from an adventure? I thought you were killed by some wild beasts?" Jiang Wei laughed jokingly.

"I thought you were eaten by the wild beast as well. I guess you really practiced archery properly."

"No way, Instructor Huo will kill me if I slack my practice."

"Well, that's Instructor Huo for you, haha..."

Jiang Wei came over and patted Qin Yi's shoulders. He said, "It's good to see you again. You should help me shoot some wild beasts later."

"Are you sure? I might steal your limelight." Qin Yi chuckled.

"I have enjoyed it for two years anyway." Jiang Wei laughed as he stared at Qin Yi and said again, "Welcome back. Instructor Huo would be happy to see you here."

Qin Yi nodded and said, "I will visit him now."

After bidding farewell to his old friend, he strode over to the inner hall and saw a fit middle-aged man instructing archery students.

"Wei Yun, strengthen your posture and focus your eyes on the target! Have you really eaten? How can you be as weak as someone who hasn't eaten in three days?"

"Teacher, I haven't eaten in four days..."

"Don't talk back to me! Zhou Li, raise your hand higher- I said higher, not lower! Do you need me to hold you like a maiden?"

"Teacher, why don't you just carry Zhou Li like a princess? Haha"

Everyone immediately laughed at this joke.

"Shut up, keep shooting!"

"Wang Kun, you are late today. Quickly grab your bow and arrow. You must practice shooting a thousand times today!"

"... teacher, can you lessen it by 995 shots?"

"Sure, you're going to shoot a total of 1995 times today!"

"..."

Qin Yi, who was watching from afar, couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

Once upon a time, he was also one of them; training, chatting, joking, laughing...

To be honest, compared to training in a sect, practicing here was more memorable to him mainly because the time he spent in the sect was still too short.

An hour later, Instructor Huo came out of the training hall and met Qin Yi.

"The disciple has seen Instructor Huo."

Instructor Huo was surprised to see his long-lost disciple suddenly appear before him.

Qin Yi smiled and said, "Does the instructor not recognize me anymore?"

"Haha, I did almost forget my disciple who disappeared for over two years..." Instructor Huo laughed and patted Qin Yi's shoulder.

"Major Han told me that you went journey to become Immortal. How is it? Did you manage to become one? Come on, let's talk on the balcony."

***

"Instructor Hou, have this!"

"What is this?"

"It's a medicine to heal the injury. I heard you suffered many injuries in yesterday's raid. You will be completely healed after taking this medicine."

Instructor Hou was taken aback. 

There's such medicine?

He was in the middle of recovery, and the doctor who treated him was the best in town. Even so, it takes a week or even a month to heal completely.

He wondered if his disciple's words were true?

However, whether it was true or not, he could confirm it after drinking it.

Instructor Hou immediately drinks it without hesitation.

Shortly after that, all the wounds on his body began to heal in his visible eyes.

He was shocked. Even the most potent medicine made by the most powerful doctor can not do this.

"Amazing! Do you have more? The other instructors also suffer the same as me..." Instructor Hou was a bit excited as he shamelessly asked for more similar medicine to his former student.

Qin Yi took out more medicines, "I still have some."

Instructor Hou hesitated and said, "They must be precious, right?"

Qin Yi laughed carelessly, "Don't worry, Instructor Hou. My friend said that these medicines are easy to make and the ingredients aren't that valuable either. I have a lot of them because I'm his friend."

"Since you said that..." Instructor Hou unceremoniously received the gifts.

After a while, Qin Yi opened his mount again.

"Instructor Hou, besides visiting you here, this disciple also has something to consult with you."

"Oh, what is it?"

"Instructor Hou, do you know the reason behind the active and increasing number of wild beasts in the past two years?"

Instructor Hou fell silent before asking, "Did you know?"

He and the others had already investigated Maple Forest, but they did not dare enter the inner area. Thus, they could only assume that the wild beast became active in the outer area because of the territorial war in the inner area.

Qin Yi explained, "This is because the spiritual veins will soon be born in Maple Forest and even cover Maple Town. Once it happens, the number of wild beasts in the forest will keep increasing, and they will inevitably invade the town to occupy the territory."

Instructor Hou was started.

Although he didn't know what spiritual veins were, it would be dangerous if the number of wild beasts grew more than this, and it would be even more hazardous if they invaded the town.

"So, you mean-"

"Instructor, this disciple intends to build power here." Qin Yi explained earnestly, "With spiritual veins, not only allow wild beasts growing, but the residents of Maple Town also have the opportunity to give birth to cultivators."

"Cultivators?"

"That is another term for Immortal. Therefore, my intention is to build Heavenly Martial Art into power..."

Heavenly Martial Hall has produced many fine martial artists for years. If it can successfully cultivate cultivators, it will definitely become the pillar of this town.

Qin Yi could actually ask his sect to protect his hometown, but then he thought, it is better to rely on ourselves than others.

If somehow he couldn't handle it, it won't be too late to ask the sect for help.

Cultivating cultivators might take some time, but surely Qin Yi will protect this town until the fruit ripens.

"So, how did we cultivate a cultivator?" Instructor Hou asked curiously.

Qin Yi took out a stone the size of an adult's fist, and he explained: "This is Aptitude Stone; it can detect whether people have the martial aptitude or not."

Although the Aptitude Stone was not as good as the Sky Ascension that the Sleeping Dragon Sect had, it was still effective. 

The Sky Ascension function did not solely test one's aptitude but also one's potential and will, while the Aptitude Stone was as simple as testing one's aptitude.

Instructor Hou carefully held the stone and asked, "How does this stone work?"

"The Aptitude Stone will light up when the person with the martial aptitude lights up. The brighter the light it emits, the more talented the person who touches it." Qin Yi explained in a clear voice.

Surprisingly as soon as the explanation ended, the Aptitude Stone lit up brightly.

Both Instructor Huo and Qin Yi were taken aback.

Instructor Huo somewhat panicked, "I..."

"Don't panic, instructor. This means you have the talent..." Qin Yi twitched his lips.

No wonder why Instructor Huo was so talented in martial arts; it turned out he was meant to be a cultivator from the start. He's just short on opportunity.

What about the other three instructors? They are as talented as Instructor Huo. Perhaps they also have a similar aptitude...

'System, extract Instructor Huo's aptitude!' Qin Yi secretly ordered the system.
