[The most important aspect of Zhengzi Boxing is meditation, to achieve a righteous heart, righteous mind, and righteous body. Next, I'll teach you the meditation mantra...]

[Birds on the trees pair up, green waters and blue mountains smile...]

[Add three spoons of sugar, a pinch of salt, then some soy sauce, oyster sauce, and dark soy sauce...]
...
[Good brother, it's broad daylight, this isn't right. Ah, don't take it off, take your dirty hands away, I'll do it myself...]
...
[Yue Twelve is dead. Damn humans, today I'll eat two more!]

[Fan Family Blade, first move, blade aura sweeping across. Follow my lead.]

For the next period, Zhang Ping focused on adapting to his new talent as a Wind Whisperer.
This ability had its pros and cons.
Through it, he learned many big and small secrets.
For instance, the captain of the Sweep Team was named Situ Shibai, his ability was replication, and he was over 200 years old.
He also learned that the Sweep Team had recently killed seven Tianchang Foxes.
He even knew some of the secret techniques of various martial arts schools.
But sometimes, it was a burden.
Because this ability was completely passive, he couldn't avoid knowing things he shouldn't.
Family squabbles, affairs, infidelities, people's hidden troubles, and the terrifying chewing sounds when Tianchang Foxes ate humans.
Some things he really didn't want to know, especially not during meals.
"Wrong move, start over."
By the furnace, Zhang Ping was practicing his Fire Eater ability, while not far behind him, Wang Jieming was practicing his boxing.
Wang Jieming had already mastered the basics of the Ape King Form, so Bai De had to continue teaching him the subsequent moves, though Wang Jieming had gotten used to practicing at Zhang Ping's place, so he would come over whenever he had free time at noon.
Wang Jieming was still practicing the Ape King Form, while Zhang Ping had moved on to the Crocodile Form, a technique for training finger strength, which coincidentally had similarities with Dough Forging Technique, allowing him to progress rapidly, almost reaching the threshold for the Phoenix Claw Form.
In fact, Zhang Ping already knew all the moves and training methods of Beast King Boxing, the only thing he didn't know was the specific movements.
After thoroughly understanding Beast King Boxing, Zhang Ping had to admit that it was worth its price.
The first three forms trained the arms, the middle three forms trained the legs and chest muscles, and the last three forms could be considered secret techniques, with the ultimate move being incredibly mystical, almost like a superpower.
However, learning Beast King Boxing wasn't easy.
According to the information he heard from the Wind Whisperer, the first three and middle three forms could be mastered by ordinary people, but the last three forms required talent and wealth, and mastering the ultimate move required not only talent but also comprehension, and most importantly, more wealth.
The last three forms and the ultimate move required the use of body parts from corresponding Mutated Beasts as medicinal materials.
Zhang Ping knew the formulas and how to train, but without a master to guide him, he didn't dare to practice. A mistake in Beast King Boxing could have severe consequences.
At worst, it could cause muscle and bone injuries; at worst, it could lead to total paralysis.
"Yue Six, look at those two kids, they look tasty. Shall we have them for lunch?"@@@@
Zhang Ping was controlling the fire element energy when he suddenly heard a raspy voice, but it was in stereo.
He frowned and looked back, seeing two Tianchang Foxes standing outside the Iron Soul shop, eyeing him and Wang Jieming like they were selecting prey.

"Are we being targeted?"
Zhang Ping's heart sank. The next moment, he gripped Cold Jade, releasing flames in his palm.
As he spoke, Liu Sishan easily decapitated the other Tianchang Fox.
"You two go back. I've already covered for you. We'll talk tonight." Liu Sishan glanced at Zhang Ping, not allowing any argument.
Before Zhang Ping and Wang Jieming could ask, they were both ejected from the dark room, returning to Iron Soul.
Wang Jieming looked at Zhang Ping, wanting to ask what had just happened, but Zhang Ping shook his head slightly. Wang Jieming understood, nodded, and continued practicing his boxing, while Zhang Ping sat by the furnace, consuming flames to recover his stamina.
Though the fight with the Tianchang Foxes had only lasted about thirty seconds, his stamina and mental strength were greatly depleted. Now, as he relaxed, he felt almost exhausted.
He was leveling up quickly.
Most ordinary Awakeners could only level up twice a year, but he had leveled up twice in just over half a month.
The problem was his opponents were too strong, not giving him time to develop, like a level one newbie encountering a fully geared boss right out of the beginner village. How could he fight?
"I'm still too weak."
Zhang Ping stared at the flames in the furnace, gritting his teeth as he condensed a Contract Gem with his mental strength. After swallowing it, he was so tired that he fell asleep by the furnace.
...
Though humans couldn't tell Tianchang Foxes apart, the foxes could easily recognize each other.
After invading Mingzhu City, the Tianchang Foxes even adopted human habits, giving themselves names, using 'Yue' as their surname and naming themselves according to their rank in the tribe.
The leader of the Tianchang Foxes was called the Moon King, and his son was the Moon Prince.
The one who ate Luo Shiyu was the Moon Prince!
At this moment, the City Lord's mansion was filled with Tianchang Foxes. A tall golden fox without a human skin mask on its forehead sat in the main seat, while the Moon Prince, wearing Luo Shiyu's skin, stood beside it.
Undoubtedly, it was the Moon King!
The leader of the Tianchang Foxes.
"This week, nine have died. It seems humans have found a way to counter my ability," the Moon King said in a deep voice, its eyes filled with murderous intent.
A Tianchang Fox with a seductive woman's skin on its forehead spoke, "King, why don't we just kill all the humans and take over the city?"
"And what will you eat? Grass?" another Tianchang Fox with a fat man's skin retorted.
The Tianchang Foxes began to argue, which soon escalated into a fight.
"Stop."
The Moon King's eyes narrowed, and a fierce aura enveloped the City Lord's mansion.
All the Tianchang Foxes immediately stopped, releasing each other and crouching on the ground, not daring to lift their heads.
The Moon King looked at the Moon Prince and asked, "My son, what do you think?"
"Killing all the humans isn't practical and would waste food. We should find a way to lure out the hidden humans and eliminate them one by one," the Moon Prince suggested.
At this moment, the only human in the City Lord's mansion, Deputy City Lord Huang Zeming, spoke, "King, Your Highness, we could invite other races in, stir up trouble in Mingzhu City, and then focus on eliminating some of the stronger humans."
"You think they're hiding in the city?" the Moon King asked.
Huang Zeming nodded, "The Big Three organizations include the Patrol Guard and the Investigation Team, but there's a third team only the City Lord knows about. When you injured the City Lord, he fled, and his whereabouts are unknown. I suspect he's hiding with that team, waiting for us to show a weakness."
"Bringing in other races is a good idea. I've been wanting to try new flavors," the Moon Prince said.
Having only human food for a while, he was getting tired of it, which was why he only chose the most tender young women as food.
The Moon King closed his eyes in thought. After a while, he opened them and looked at the Moon Prince, "My son, if you are in charge of eliminating the strong humans, can you do it?"
"Yes," the Moon Prince nodded.
The Moon King nodded in satisfaction, "Then stir up trouble in Mingzhu City. I will enter a state of hibernation, concealing my aura. Once my aura disappears, Mingzhu City will have no defenses. The rest is up to you!"
"Yes, I will root out every human hiding in Mingzhu City and avenge Yue Nine!" the Moon Prince replied.
The Moon King closed his eyes in satisfaction. His breathing became long and deep, and his intimidating aura gradually faded. Within an hour, it would completely disappear.
"The King is in hibernation. All members of the Yue clan must stay in the City Lord's mansion. Yue One, Yue Two, and Yue Three will handle food collection. Yue Thirty, Yue Thirty-One, Yue Thirty-Two, and Yue Thirty-Three, you will follow me to observe the strong humans," the Moon Prince commanded.
All the Tianchang Foxes lowered their heads and responded in unison, "Yes."
Huang Zeming also lowered his head, but his eyes gleamed coldly, and a smile crept onto his lips.
