Yip Man nodded and continued, "Then you should be able to answer my question now, shouldn't you?"
"I want to take you as my disciple. What do you think? Do you agree or not?"
If Wu Tian wouldn't have agreed before, now that he knew Yip Man's identity, it was impossible for him not to.
Wu Tian had watched movies about Yip Man and deeply admired him.
Therefore, facing Yip Man himself at this moment, he was very excited.
He said with a flushed face, "Master Yip is a grandmaster and a national hero."
"It is my honor that Master Yip wants to take me as his disciple. How could I possibly refuse!"
Yip Man said with satisfaction, "Good, good, good! I am already this old and have been looking for a suitable successor. Since you have now joined my lineage, I will pass on all my lifelong learning to you!"
Without a word, Wu Tian knelt down before Yip Man.
He said with a surging heart, "Master, please accept your disciple's bow!"
"Mm, get up," Yip Man said to Wu Tian, then handed him a jade pendant.
"Since you are my true disciple, you should accept this."
"This is..." Wu Tian looked at the jade pendant, feeling puzzled.
It was a very 고급 jade pendant, finely crafted, with a lotus flower carved on it.
Yip Jianghe stepped forward to explain, "It's like this. Although Grandpa has lived in seclusion from the world, in fact, Grandpa still manages a sect from behind the scenes."
"That sect is called the Wing Chun school. I think you must have heard of it."
"Wing Chun school?" Wu Tian was surprised.
He had indeed heard of Wing Chun. It was a sect no less renowned than the Tian Can school, and it was the sole sect of Wing Chun today.
However, Wu Tian could never have imagined that the person behind this sect would be such a prominent figure as Yip Man.
Yip Jianghe continued, "The Wing Chun school has always had only one acting sect leader because Grandpa said that only his true successor could truly ascend to the position of sect leader."
"This jade pendant is the token of the sect leader. Since you have now gained Grandpa's approval, by receiving this jade pendant, you have effectively taken over the entire Wing Chun school."
"In other words, from now on, you are the sect leader of the Wing Chun school."
Hearing Yip Jianghe's words, Wu Tian was speechless for a full half a minute.
He was too shocked. He was just a village doctor, how could he suddenly become the head of the Wing Chun school?
He came back to his senses and said in astonishment, "This... this doesn't seem appropriate. How can I take on such a major responsibility?"
Yip Jianghe smiled and said, "I know this is sudden, but don't feel pressured."
"This so-called position of sect leader is merely symbolic. You have the authority, but it doesn't mean you have to handle the sect's affairs."
"So, you just need to maintain your position steadily. As for other matters, there will naturally be people within the sect to handle them."
Hearing this, Wu Tian finally felt a little relieved.
After all, he was accustomed to a carefree life. If he were suddenly tied to a sect, he wouldn't be able to handle it.
Wu Tian put away the jade pendant and nodded, "I understand. Thank you for your and Master's trust. I will definitely not bring shame to the sect."
Yip Man nodded and said, "Good. If that's the case, then for this period, you will follow me to learn Wing Chun kung fu."
"When I have taught you all my lifelong learning, you may leave me."
Wu Tian was slightly taken aback. He didn't have much time to spend with Yip Man now. If it took three to five years to learn, then he wouldn't have time to develop Taoyuan Village.
However, on second thought, Wu Tian felt that since he was now imbued with spiritual energy, learning these things shouldn't be difficult.
Being able to learn martial arts from Grandmaster Yip Man was something many people dreamed of, and he didn't want to miss this opportunity.
So he agreed and said, "Then I will trouble Master for your guidance."
Afterward, he left the room and found Zhou Qian to tell her about this.
However, he did not reveal Yip Man's identity, merely describing him as a martial arts master.
Zhou Qian was a little unhappy about this, but she did not act petulantly.
After all, she was a smart woman and knew that if Wu Tian learned from a "master," it would only be beneficial for him.
However, Wu Tian couldn't go back with her tonight, which still made her a little upset.
So she booked another room at the hotel and poured all her desires for the coming days onto Wu Tian...
The next day, Zhou Qian left, and Wu Tian, with dark circles under his eyes, found Yip Man and Yip Jianghe.
Seeing Wu Tian's somewhat haggard appearance, Yip Jianghe couldn't help but ask, "Wu Tian, what did you do yesterday? Didn't you sleep all night?"
Wu Tian's mouth twitched slightly, and the madness of the previous night flashed through his mind.
Although he had sighed many times, he still had to admit that Zhou Qian was truly a terrifying woman...
Wu Tian didn't explain much to Yip Jianghe, and soon, they headed to the training ground.
Given that Yip Man was still alive and had founded the Wing Chun school, his financial resources must have been astonishing.
The training ground was in another district. As they drove there, Wu Tian was immediately stunned.
It was a villa, and in the basement below the villa, the training space was over two hundred square meters.
In that space, wooden dummies were neatly arranged. Wu Tian knew that these dummies were for practicing punches.
It was with these wooden dummies that Yip Man had trained day and night, eventually becoming a grandmaster.
Yip Man said to Wu Tian, "Wing Chun kung fu starts with the basics, and the foundation is striking the wooden dummies."
"You must learn slowly and never be impatient."
"I believe with your talent, you will master it all in no time."
Wu Tian nodded and then began learning Wing Chun kung fu from Yip Man.
He practiced with single-minded devotion, gradually experiencing the beauty of Wing Chun.
This style of boxing emphasized speed, accuracy, and power. It started with defense, but as soon as an opportunity arose, it unleashed a storm of counterattacks.
In summary, it was a boxing style that focused on finding opportunities. It was still until it moved, and when it moved, it was like thunder!
After practicing for a week like this, still in the basement, Wu Tian punched Yip Jianghe and sent him flying.
"Ouch, my back..." Yip Jianghe stumbled a few steps and then collapsed to the ground weakly.
Wu Tian walked over, extended his hand to him, and smiled, "Brother Yip, are you alright?"
