Listening to Ji Yan and Yuan Li's explanations, Qin Huai and Li Tianye obviously felt a sense of enlightenment.
When Qin Huai was in the Han clan, he did not have the opportunity to understand so many basic theories of martial arts. While Yuanli was learning this knowledge in the school and reading poems and books eloquently, Qin Huai was working in a quarry in the mountains. Try your best for a few gold coins.
Although Li Tianye was not as good as Qin Huai, the small family naturally did not have so much discipline for him. At the same age, he chose to play with mud on the ground, fish in the pond, and dig out bird eggs in the trees.
Therefore, the three people from very different backgrounds naturally have unavoidable cognitive biases.
It can even be said that if it hadn't been for coming to Tianzi Academy, the three young men might never have had the chance to meet... let alone stand together to practice and study like they are now.
Just as Qin Huai thought when he first arrived at the academy, for some of the students, Tianzi Academy is just a choice, not the ultimate goal. Even if you don't choose to come to the academy, you still have a bright future.
For Qin Huai, Tianzi Academy is salvation and a turning point in life. Without Tianzi Academy, even if he was not assassinated to death, he would have been reduced to a low-level member of a small Korean foreign tribe.
Moreover, there are no ifs in the world, the reality is: without Tianzi Academy, Qin Huai has now turned into a wisp of smoke and completely disappeared from this world.
The significance of coming to Tianzi Academy for Qin Huai is not an exaggeration to describe it as surviving a desperate situation. Even the four thousand gold coins for one month's living expenses at the academy were an astronomical amount for him before.
Maybe if he were still in the Han clan, a huge sum of four thousand gold coins would be enough to drive Qin Huai crazy, but now he has no feeling at all. He even said ironically that four thousand gold coins was what he wanted to have with all his strength before. of wealth.
Even after Qin Huai jumped three levels in a row for the first time, he was able to control his emotions perfectly. Even though he was excited inside, he could not notice it on the outside.
Qin Huai has long been aware of these phenomena, because he can clearly feel that compared to before coming to the academy, his current state of mind is several times calmer than before, as if he has become extremely sophisticated in an instant. The ability to handle anything becomes calm.
It's like he has an eighty-year-old heart under the body of an eighteen-year-old boy.
For all these changes, Qin Huai also attributed it to the assassination of the man in black that night, which made him reach sublimation in an instant. The mysterious man who rescued him that day also said that he suddenly broke out when he was assassinated. The seven beams of light that emitted have now risen to almost eight beams of light.
Perhaps, all changes in Qin Huai's own mentality and state of mind are related to him.
Without worrying too much about the reason why he had such a change, Qin Huai continued to focus on Ji Yan's explanation. No matter what the reason was, at least for him, it was always a good thing and definitely not a bad thing. bad thing.
"So, in addition to improving your martial arts level, you must also learn combat skills and combat skills to improve your overall combat power. Only in this way will you have enough means to fight against others in the future." Ji Yan continued. After Yuanli's words, he continued:
"You have not yet reached the stage of practicing professions. There are far more combat professions than you know, but martial arts masters and battle mages have the largest number of practitioners, and they are also the most famous. In fact, in the final analysis, profession is to choose a fighting style and prepare for it. carry it forward.”
"Martial masters teach about developing the body and learning powerful melee combat skills, while battle mages focus on learning spells for long-range spell casting. After choosing a profession, although the fighting method will become more simple, at the same level, the martial arts of practicing professions Those who have no training profession will definitely defeat the martial arts cultivators."
"And if you don't choose a training profession, such a martial artist will focus on one path of martial arts, like the Guardian of Dawn, who can do both melee and long-range combat. The only advantage is that they have a variety of fighting styles and the same level. Understandably, the power of a martial artist’s fighting skills cannot be compared with the martial arts skills of a professional..."
Hearing this, Qin Huai also thoroughly understood Ji Yan's explanation. Qin Huai's theoretical basic knowledge of martial arts has also gone a step further. As the saying goes, there are specializations in martial arts. Professionals give up their changeable fighting styles in exchange for martial arts cultivators. Incomparable power.
Although the martial arts practitioners' fighting skills of the same level are not as powerful as those of professionals, they are not limited to close combat or long-range strikes.
No matter which choice you choose, there are pros and cons, just like the balance of yin and yang.
It is only because today's martial arts is gradually declining, and people in the world are finding it increasingly difficult to achieve it, that the later people with great abilities have developed professional branches to make up for their weakness in the martial arts.
After talking about the theory, Ji Yan looked at Yuan Li and asked: "Xia, Zhong, Shang, Tian, the world divides martial arts practitioners' fighting skills into the above four grades. How many have you learned now? What's the grade?"
Yuanli also quickly replied: "There are three types, all of which are middle grade."
As expected, Ji Yan nodded and asked Li Tianye: "What about you?"
"There are four kinds in total, all of which are low-grade, three fighting skills and one cultivation method." Li Tianye replied.
As for Qin Huai, Ji Yan didn't ask because she knew how an ordinary kid like Qin Huai, who didn't even have basic training rules, could have the chance to learn fighting skills, so she chose to carefully protect the young man's self-esteem.
His pride will bloom sooner or later, but for now, he still needs to keep silent about the young man's family's plight.
Yuan Li and Li Tianye also had a tacit understanding and did not ask Qin Huai any further questions. Perhaps they had guessed something, or perhaps they felt that instructor Ji Yan already knew what was going on and there was no need to say anything...
"In order to better understand your fighting style, Qin Huai and Li Tianye, you two will fight Yuanli once each. As Yuanli is the strongest among you, fighting against him, I can see the shortcomings of the three of you at the same time, so Develop targeted training methods for you.”
Ji Yan announced the upcoming training.
Facing Ji Yan's arrangement, Qin Huai also fully agreed. No matter what kind of training mode, in the final analysis, it is to be better in battle, and only battle is the test of a martial artist's comprehensive quality.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Huai looked at Yuan Li, who was still extremely calm. The blood flowing on his body was boiling at this time. Although Yuan Li was in the late stage of Wu Po Jing, Qin Huai was not afraid of it.
On the contrary, there is a sense of long-suppressed expectation. When he was in the Han tribe, although he was one of the few martial arts practitioners where he lived, there were no other martial arts practitioners who could equal his strength, so for that kind of He had never experienced a hearty battle.
But now, Qin Huai happened to have successfully reached the peak of Hua Yijing, and he also wanted to try out what kind of power his body had.
"This competition is just for discussion. It is to better find your own weaknesses. You can use your best, but remember to protect yourself. If there is a risk of injury, signal to me and I will immediately interrupt the competition. During this period, I will Watch from the sidelines.”
Ji Yan looked at the two people who were eager to try, and quickly reminded them.
Although she knew that Qin Huai himself had not mastered any fighting skills, and there was a big gap in combat power with Yuan Li who had learned three middle-grade fighting skills, it was because of this that Ji Yan arranged this competition.
She knows very well that if she always trains Qin Huai in a cover-up mode, it will do him no good at all in the future.
After all, in this world, no one will choose to hold back and give in because you are weak. Instead, they will casually kill the weak as if they are nothing.
In this competition, even if Qin Huai has no chance of winning, being able to maximize his potential is what Ji Yan values most.
Ji Yan raised his palm slightly, and a burst of power emerged. A circle of bright golden light appeared on the square of the training room, just surrounding Qin Huai and Yuan Li in the center.
The halo is like a circle of light, demarcating the competition between the two.
At this time, Ji Yan and Li Tianye have retreated to the high stone platform in the training room and will observe the competition between Qin Huai and Yuan Li from a distance.
"The rules of the competition are that there are no rules. You can use all your methods. As long as you repel the opponent outside the aperture, the one who remains within the aperture will be the final winner. In the competition between martial artists, physical injuries are inevitable, so Please remember to protect your own safety.”
Ji Yan looked down at the two people who were getting ready to go, and emphasized again.
"Yes!" Qin Huai and Yuan Li agreed to Ji Yan respectively, then focused their gazes on each other. The fighting spirit in his eyes grew stronger.
"Please advise!" Qin Huai looked at Yuan Li opposite him calmly and chuckled softly.
Qin Huai is also a little curious about Yuan Li's strength. Martial arts realm is not the same as combat power. In the world, there are many strange people and strange things. There are some martial arts practitioners who do not seem to be strong in martial arts realm, but because of With a special physique, it is no problem to fight even if it is a leapfrog battle.
Even though he was not sure about the results of the comparison test, Qin Huai still felt an unprecedented excitement. Driven by this feeling, his body muscles began to tighten and his breathing gradually began to become heavier.
That look is like a sign before a bullfight becomes angry.
"I don't know how to let go!" Yuan Li slowly bent down, and the Wu Yuan in the sea of qi gradually began to circulate rapidly along the meridians of his body, staring at Qin Huai.
Yuanli did not have the slightest contempt for Qin Huai, whose martial arts level was lower than his own. From the first time he met Qin Huai, he could clearly feel the aura that was unique to Qin Huai, a kind of aura even when there was no one behind him. The courage to stand proudly!
Even out of the most basic respect, Yuan Li will use all his strength!
"Then let the competition begin!"
Ji Yan announced loudly on the high platform.
