After all, even before the 21st century, not every family member within those glorious and flourishing Ancient Martial Families could successfully cultivate Inner Strength.
And since the Ancient Martial Families had all retreated back to the Ancient Martial World, those members who couldn't cultivate Inner Strength were expelled from it.
Not only in the imperial city, but Shanghai City and some other major cities also have some martial arts schools.
Most of these martial arts schools are opened by those who have been expelled from the Ancient Martial World.
A small portion of them have gone to the Shaolin Temple to become monks.
Practitioners of Ancient Medicine must cultivate ancient martial arts.
Because only with sufficient Inner Strength within their bodies can they perform more ancient acupuncture techniques.
However, these practitioners only possess the most basic cultivation of ancient martial arts, and cannot be equated with true ancient martial artists.
