Free Web NovelChapter 1137: Chapter 1136: Strong Agreement
I don’t know who set such bizarre laws, but under these laws, ordinary people are rarely harassed by those from martial arts schools.
Actually, this is related to the people of Bordeaux planet; generally speaking, the people there are mild and rarely get involved in disputes.
Therefore, these legal provisions are set to protect these people.
Meanwhile, the law also made other provisions to encourage those who practice martial arts.
Ye and his three companions arrived at the martial arts school where Mark was, standing at the entrance, looking at the low doorway without speaking.
Mark awkwardly smiled and said, "Our conditions here are indeed quite simple, please don’t mind it."
Ba Lv looked at the tall building next door and said, "Look at their martial arts school, it’s grand and imposing, why is yours like this?"
What else could be the reason? "Mark scratched his head, dejectedly saying, "No money, that’s the only reason. If we had money, we would certainly have a tall martial arts school like the one next door.
No money? When we came, the driver told us, he said you martial arts schools are quite wealthy, and there are various government subsidies, under such circumstances, how can you have no money?" Ba Lv was quite puzzled.
Mark smiled bitterly, "Right, the driver ’533’ got it right, but let me explain the specifics for you, even if local people are not in this line of work, they might have only a partial understanding."
Just as Mark said, what the spaceship driver told Jiang Cheng and the others was indeed a partial understanding.
Mark said to them, the arrangements for martial arts schools by the government of Bordeaux planet are like this.
If members of a martial arts school can win awards in different competitions, the school will receive corresponding prizes.
Moreover, the number of students a martial arts school can recruit is related to winning in competitions.
The government of Bordeaux planet does not allow martial arts schools to recruit students privately; there are strict regulations on student numbers for each school.
If any martial arts school is found recruiting students privately, at best, it could be fined; at worst, it might lose its qualification to operate.
And for a martial arts school to earn money, it needs to recruit more students, and to recruit more students, its members must achieve awards in competitions.
In other words, whether a martial arts school has money is directly related to competitions. Possibly, the staff who drafted this regulation intended to prevent those who lack skills from opening martial arts schools for profit.
True, according to the government regulations, if a school can’t win awards in competitions, it implies inadequate skills, under such circumstances, opening a martial arts school would only mislead students, right?
But those who drafted this regulation didn’t consider that newly opened small martial arts schools would fall into a vicious cycle.
With a small school, it’s hard to recruit students for training; fewer members lead to fewer chances in competitions, fewer chances mean it’s hard to win awards, and without awards, the school can’t recruit students.
Thus, many small martial arts schools end up in a dead end, having no choice but to close down.
Mark and others had great enthusiasm to establish this martial arts school named "Star of Xili," only to realize such regulations after the school was founded.
The initial investments had been spent completely, yet their small school couldn’t see any hope, leaving them no choice but to leave this line like other bankrupt small schools, bleakly.
After listening to Mark, Jiang Cheng and others realized how incomplete the spaceship driver’s explanation was—it truly misled them!
Yanran elbowed Ba Lv slightly and whispered to her: "The name ’Star of Hope,’ don’t you think it sounds sad?"
Ba Lv thought Yanran was being absurd, she said to Yanran: "Why would I dislike it? I just arrived on this planet," watching Yanran’s expression as if to hit her suddenly made her realize: "Oh, are you talking about the coach we met at the restaurant?"
"Just take out the business card and have a look." Faced with Ba Lv, Yanran almost lost her patience.
Ba Lv took out the business card handed to them by the stranger at the restaurant.
Indeed, the card showed that the stranger was a coach at the martial arts school "Star of Hope," his name was Liu Ming.
Ba Lv awkwardly smiled at Ruoran, not knowing why, she just couldn’t be as meticulous as Yanran in handling matters.
Yanran also felt her behavior was odd.
You know, Ba Lv was formerly an assassin, a rather skilled one at that.
But has anyone ever seen a careless assassin?
A careless assassin would probably have been killed off by enemies a long time ago, right?
What’s the point in keeping such an assassin?
If Ba Lv had been as careless when working as an assassin, then undoubtedly grass would have grown on her grave by now, how would she have the chance to travel in space with them?
Yanran and Ba Lv discussed where the problem might lie.
Given they are always together, Ba Lv is always so careless and forgetful, who could endure this all the time?
Yanran keeps cleaning up after Ba Lv, even so, things still aren’t perfect.
Yanran, did you see my pants from last night?
"I forgot what I was going to do just now, Yanran, you’ll have to remind me when the time comes."
"Ah, the bread is burnt! Yanran, why didn’t you remind me?"
Wait.
Yanran really exploded!
Yanran always considered herself a good-tempered person, but under Ba Lv’s constant torture, she finally lost her temper.
You say, if you are so careless all the time, if you were like this as an assassin, wouldn’t you be done long ago?
When Yanran gets mad, even Ba Lv, who used to be feared, feels scared, especially since she is so reasonable in her criticism.
Yes, I also find it strange, why did I become like this? When I did assassination work, I had to consider everything myself—perhaps I used my brain too much then, and now I’ve become forgetful.
Ba Lv could only laugh and joke with Yanran as they were talking.
Don’t try to fool me, clearly you are using me as a nanny, you think I’m dumb, don’t you? "Yanran, not being a fool, sharply pointed out Ba Lv’s bad intentions.
Ba Lv truly didn’t have this thought, she immediately insisted, "I really don’t, Yanran, you must believe me, although I have these flaws, I’m really not how you portrayed me!"
Seeing Ba Lv’s face reddened with anxiety, even her voice changed, Yanran could only say that her earlier words were spoken out of anger.
However, the problem must be solved, so they handed this issue to their mentor.
Yanran remembered clearly their mentor saying this at the time.
There’s nothing wrong with you! "Jiang Cheng said to Ba Lv: "You just thoroughly relaxed yourself.
According to Jiang Cheng’s view, Ba Lv suddenly transitioned from the tense life of an assassin to a relaxed state, and naturally became absent-minded and careless in handling things.
Her nerves, long drawn tight, finally fully relaxed.
Yanran agreed with Jiang Cheng’s words wholeheartedly.
For instance, when Ba Lv first joined them, the two of them shared a bed, and even a slight movement, a light cough in the middle of the night would wake Ba Lv.
But now, every morning unless Yanran wakes her up, she wouldn’t get up at all.
It’s quite the task to get her out of bed, watching her go wash her face and brush her teeth at a laid-back pace.
