Then came the fourth and fifth batches, and it finally took half a day to complete the second level of trials. Only half of the total of more than 700 people passed the level.
However, no one was eliminated this time, and they all stayed to participate in the third level.
The third level trial is very simple. It takes one night to master a low-level skill of Shan Yinmen.
The exercises are engraved on the mountain wall at the end of the square, and there are nine types in total.
They are "Black Tiger Fist", "Open Mountain Palm", "Heavenly Walking Legs", "Wind Spirit Steps", "Flowing Cloud Sword", "Diamond Sword", "Flash Tassel Spear", "Sky Shooting Bow" and "Silver Fire Needle", which represent the flashing silver. There are four halls, four pavilions and one chamber of commerce under the sect.
These nine sets of exercises only have patterns and no words, and each pattern is not coherent. They have to rely on their own exploration and understanding. The disciples participating in the trial choose one of them, and then spend one night to understand it, and then test it the next day.
Following the announcement from the law enforcement elder, the people who passed the second trial, including Huang Ming and Xiao Hua, immediately gathered in front of the mountain wall. Fortunately, the pattern was very big, and it didn't matter that it could be seen by looking up. Crowded.
Najun and the others once again crowded in front of Huang Ming and Xiao Hua.
"Brothers, what technique do you want to learn? Why don't we do it together?"
Najun and the others want to hug each other again. The reason why the mountain people of Baiyi Kingdom are said to be born martial artists is because the mountain people have extremely strong comprehension ability and can learn by themselves without a teacher. Naturally, Najun and the others don't want to miss this opportunity.
"Isn't this bad?" Xiao Hua frowned.
"I said Na Fatty, whether you are practicing martial arts or cultivating immortals, apart from hard work, the most important thing is understanding, also called enlightenment. If you have to rely on others for enlightenment, how can you improve yourselves, and how can you enter the Tao through martial arts?"
"We know that we can only rely on ourselves for cultivation, but this enlightenment is just a trial. If you rank too low, you will not be able to enter the Four Halls, Four Pavilions and the Chamber of Commerce, and you can only become an outer disciple, so you can only rely on the two Big brother”
"Outer disciple? What do you mean?" Huang Ming hesitated.
"Oh, the disciples of the Shining Silver Sect are divided into the inner sect and the outer sect. Only those who rank in the top 100 in each entry trial can enter the four halls, four pavilions and the Chamber of Commerce to become inner sect disciples, otherwise they will only be the outer sect." Na Jun Explained.
"What is the difference between the inner door and the outer door?" Huang Ming continued to ask.
"The inner sect is an official disciple of the Shanyin Sect. There is a dedicated master who teaches the techniques without having to do chores. The outer sect disciples can only practice with the master of the techniques, and they have to do chores in exchange for the skills."
"Is there such a thing? Then it seems we really have to be in the top 100."
Huang Ming nodded. Inner disciples have special masters who teach them techniques. If he and Xiao Hua wanted to find out about the world, they naturally had to become inner disciples to have access to advanced martial arts.
"Then how can we help you? Let's understand it first and then teach you?" Huang Ming asked again.
"That's not necessary. We just need to understand the same technique and communicate with each other." Najun smiled. They were small martial arts cultivators who had reached the enlightenment stage after all. They hugged each other just to be safer.
"Then what technique do you want to learn?" Huang Ming nodded.
"We have only practiced fists, kicks and melee weapons before. Except for "Sky Bow" and "Silver Fire Needle", both of them will work. It depends on what skills the two eldest brothers want to master."
"Aside from "Sky Bow" and "Silver Fire Needle"? But these are the two I want to understand."
Xiao Hua interjected that he didn't like close combat, and when he saw the "Silver Fire Needle" technique on the wall, he immediately thought of Zou Shuniang's Silver Crystal Needle.
Na Jun was a little disappointed and looked at Huang Ming again: "Then what does Brother Huang want to understand?"
"I am the opposite of him. How about you follow me and we choose "Black Tiger Fist""
Huang Ming likes close combat, and he also learned "Rakshasa Vajra Fist" in Xiao Lingtian. Since this is just a trial to test his comprehension ability, it is natural to choose something he is familiar with to be more confident.
"Forget it, I also choose boxing"
Xiao Hua changed his mind. After all, he and Huang Ming did not come here to learn martial arts. If they want to get in touch with advanced martial arts, they must first become inner disciples.
So everyone sat cross-legged in front of the "Black Tiger Fist" exercise pattern and began to meditate.
The nine sets of exercises on the wall only have patterns and no words, and each pattern is inconsistent. No matter which set of exercises the trial practitioner understands, they are confused at first, and they learn the moves in the pattern one by one and punch. Sword dance.
After more than an hour, someone learned all the moves and began to try to perform all the moves in a set of exercises consecutively.
Najun and the others were also trying, but no matter how they adjusted the order of their moves, they still couldn't make it coherent.
"The exercises on the wall are incomplete and seem to lack the connection between different moves." Najun first discovered the problem.
"Yes, without the internal energy to operate, even if you learn the moves, they won't have much power."
Li Yangfan added, Bao Zhaohong, Bao Zhaowei and Lao Bai nodded.
"Well, it seems that the test of this level is to see whether we can understand the inheritance and transformation between moves in these techniques, and how to use the power of Qi and blood." Huang Ming nodded, and he also See it.
The reason why the nine sets of exercises on the wall are incomplete is to test the comprehension of the test takers. If they just follow the example, they will definitely not be among the top 100.
The moves of a set of skills are not only attack or defense, but also moves between attack and defense or defense and attack, so as to form a continuous attack or a transition between attack and defense.
For example, if I hit you in the head with a straight punch with my right hand, and you bend your arms in front of your head to resist, this means I'm going to attack you and defend you. But at this time, my attack has been completed. If I still want to attack, I have to withdraw my punch and hit again. .
At this time, you have your hands bent in front of your head, and you can attack directly as long as you punch. It is faster than me closing my fist and punching again. So usually I will defend immediately if I miss the punch. This becomes you. Attack and defend.
But offense and defense are not static. If my right straight punch is just a feint and the left straight punch is the actual move, then you will be hit once you give up defense and can only continue to defend, so I will attack continuously, and you will It became a continuous defense.
But regardless of continuous attack or continuous defense, there must be transitions between moves.
For example, a right straight punch is followed by a left straight punch, a left straight punch is followed by a right uppercut, etc. Only when the moves are complementary and coherent can a relatively threatening combination of punches be produced. Combination punches are actually the core of the technique.
The "Black Tiger Fist" that Huang Ming and the others are meditating on is equivalent to a left straight punch followed by a right straight punch or a right uppercut followed by a left hook. It cannot be coherent. If it is forcibly performed according to the diagram, it will inevitably Full of loopholes.
"Come on, let's figure out the moves first." Huang Ming stood up. To understand the skills is not just to sit and think about them. The best way is to practice them in actual combat and then summarize and improve them.
"You guys practice, I'll go check out the other techniques."
Xiao Hua was not interested in boxing and decided to check out the "Silver Fire Needle" set.
So Huang Ming and Na Jun started sparring, Bao Zhaohong and Bao Zhaowei, Li Yangfan and Lao Bai, and Xiao Hua went elsewhere.
