But Zhu Houzhao still gritted his teeth and persisted, because he seemed to see Mr. Qi's eyes full of expectation and hope.
The twentieth time began. Zhu Houzhao closed his eyes, and the thirteen basic sword postures of Wudang Haoque Swordsmanship flowed in his heart. He stretched out the stainless steel Haoque sword diagonally and started practicing again from the first posture "Pull". .
Different from the obscure and lame practice at the beginning, this time Zhu Houzhao danced the sword without any obstruction, and there was a smooth and smooth feeling.
Crack!
After Zhu Houzhao drew his sword, he returned to the flat belt. His sword energy was like driving a strong horse galloping across a plain.
brush!
Zhu Houzhao moved his sword forward again, then flipped over, and the sword energy shot straight into the sky.
hiss!
This time Zhu Houzhao struck with a sword, followed by a collapse, which was a meteor passing through the bright sky.
Buzz!
Zhu Houzhao came again, followed by a stir. This time it was so wonderful that I don’t know how to describe it in words.
Pressing, chopping, cutting, and washing, Zhu Houzhao continued to dance, and every sword move was precise and meticulous.
I saw the fine steel sword in Zhu Houzhao's hand, reflecting the white sword light from time to time, like clouds in the sky, and like the gurgling water in the stream, continuous and rushing.
Correspondingly, the inner Qi in Zhu Houzhao's body also slowly accelerated like running water, completing small cycles one after another, and finally returned to the Dantian, and then flowed out from it, repeating the cycle endlessly.
Gradually, Zhu Houzhao's sword style has been freed from the constraints. Not only is his sword dance extremely fast, his movements are light, but he is also unrestrained and free.
Zhu Houzhao even had the illusion that when he danced the sword, it was not the sword that was dancing, but his hands and his body.
"Is this the realm where man and sword merge into one?"
The integration of man and sword is a very high realm of swordsmanship. It is already remarkable for a swordsman to be able to use the sword as if it were an arm. However, the integration of man and sword is a higher level than this. When this level is reached, people and people can become one. The sword has become one piece.
Of course, there are high and low levels in the integration of man and sword. Zhu Houzhao is currently only able to step into this threshold. As for where it will develop in the future, it is still unknown.
However, Zhu Houzhao was already dancing like crazy with his sword, which was enough to surprise everyone present.
When he put away his sword and stood still, Zhu Houzhao slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. He was surprised that he could dance so well, and he was even more amazed by the mysterious swordsmanship of Wudang Haoque.
It seems that the essence of Wudang Haoque's swordsmanship lies in sincerity and intention. People's sincerity and intention can sometimes create many miracles. Even a layman in swordsmanship can do it when his sincerity and intention are pious and firm enough. Learn the strongest swordsmanship in the world, this is the power of sincerity and intention.
You must know that for beginners of swordsmanship, the most difficult thing to master is the basic sword style. This is not only due to the level of talent, but more importantly, the ability to adapt to new things.
All in all, it is not difficult to go from low to high, but it is difficult to start from nothing.
Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath and cleared his mind. Although he performed well, he was still tired after all. He thought it was time to take a good rest.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Old Man Qi said something like this out of nowhere: "Classmate Zhu Yu has finished his demonstration. Okay, let's move on to the next part of the course. Which student wants to stand up and compete with Classmate Zhu."
"What? You still want to use the sword?" Zhu Houzhao felt like ten thousand grass and mud horses roaring past in his heart, and he almost collapsed.
"This old man is so perverted, haven't you seen that I am already sweating from exhaustion, looking ferocious, and out of breath? To compete with others again is to accept another mental and physical torture, you bad old man Could it be that bird droppings are stuck in your eyes?" Zhu Houzhao almost had the urge to scold his mother.
Before Zhu Houzhao could scold his mother, he said, "Teacher, can I do that?" Yamada had already stood up.
What on earth is this guy going to do? Isn't this taking advantage of others' danger, adding insult to injury, and taking advantage of my exhaustion to provoke me in order to avenge my return to martial arts class?
Before Zhu Houzhao had time to think too much, Yamada, with cold eyes, put up a posture in vain, and a sword shadow had already come to kill him. Although Yamada's swordsmanship was not very superb, but with the support of strong zhenqi and the ease of working, both speed and strength were very good. It was terrifying. There was only a flash of white light, and Yamada's sword had already struck in front of Zhu Houzhao, who was exhausted physically and mentally.
With a wrong step and the footwork that Zhu Houzhao had practiced before, Zhu Houzhao managed to avoid Yamada's sword.
"Where to hide."
Yamada turned his wrist, and the sword swept out quickly, and the sword skills connected smoothly.
Unfortunately, there was still a slight difference. Zhu Houzhao was physically and mentally exhausted, but his footwork was still perfect. His footwork was not like a wisp of wind. It was so light that it seemed to have no weight. It could even be said to be a little difficult, but he managed to escape Yamada. The sword swept across, but there was still no problem.
When two swordsmen are fighting, swordsmanship is important, but footwork is equally important. No matter how powerful your swordsmanship is, if you can't even touch the enemy, it is useless. And even if the opponent's swordsmanship is worse than yours, as long as your footwork is good, It will be able to dodge your attacks and even accumulate strength to fight back.
After attacking with several swords in a row, although Yamada's attack was fierce and Zhu Houzhao was exhausted, Yamada's sword still didn't even touch Zhu Houzhao's clothes. He couldn't help but get angry: "Zhu Yu, what kind of bullshit man are you? You keep hiding here and there. Just like a coward, if we have the ability, let’s fight men against each other, sword to sword.”
"Just do it! Who is afraid of whom? Use your sword!" Although Zhu Houzhao lacked confidence, he still responded very proudly because he could not lose the battle.
As soon as Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, Yamada struck with his sword.
Zhu Houzhao no longer dodges, but gathers his energy and draws out his sword to attack. Two bone-chilling sword shadows are intertwined in the void. Learn how to use now, and you will see immediate results. Yamada made a drawing sword posture, and Zhu Houzhao returned the blow. In the flat-belt sword style, both sides were evenly matched in this move.
There was a loud "pop" sound, sparks flying in the void, and both of them were shocked and took a few steps back.
Yamada was naturally unwilling to succeed when the inevitable blow failed. Then he became furious. He moved his center of gravity forward, rotated the sword hand inward so that the palm of his hand faced outward. The tip of the sword was tilted forward and downward. He raised his wrist and shot Zhu Houzhao. The sword strikes.
This guy's entire fencing process was smooth and flowing, without any pause or stiffness.
"What a ferocious move in Hao Que Swordsmanship." Zhu Houzhao exclaimed.
Before the cry ended, Zhu Houzhao also tried hard to avoid Yamada's edge when he came close. He turned the sword-holding hand from the palm inward to the palm outward, and turned the sword from downward to Yamada's wrist. His technique was light and agile. Yamada's sword was firmly held.
After several moves failed to subdue Zhu Houzhao, Yamada's expression froze for a moment. He noticed the awe-inspiring aura on the physically and mentally exhausted Zhu Houzhao, which made his body shiver.
But in an instant, he grinned and shouted frivolously: "Zhu Yu, come and stab me if you can. Don't say that I bully you."
Originally, Zhu Houzhao planned not to draw his sword, but now looking at Yamada with a ferocious expression, he decided to change his mind.
