Martial Arts Talent (2)
How long had it taken him to reach this realm? Seven days? Ten days?
Thinking of this, he was immediately shocked. Compared to Junior Sister Yu’s current pretentiousness, Lin Yan’s actions were not only rudimentary, but also decent!
“Junior Brother, you’ve mastered this in three days?”
“Senior Brother Big Yan, this might have something to do with my insistence on training on my own previously.”
“I see…”
Wei Yan did not know much either and was skeptical.
“Senior Brother Big Yan, I don’t think the Tiger Form is very accurate…”
Lin Yan changed the topic. Wei Yan didn’t think too much about it and started to answer the questions.
“In the Tiger Form, you have to exert strength from the back, and use your shoulder to lead your elbow…”
“The ape is agile, and its arms are like bell hammers…”
“Deer Form…”
“…”
“The movement of the crane form, this, this… Look, Eldest Senior Brother is here. Go and ask him!”
Wei Yan pointed in Eldest Senior Brother’s direction and hurriedly fled. This junior brother’s questions were too tricky. He felt that if Lin Yan asked two more questions, he would be stumped.
Seeing Eldest Senior Brother walking over from afar, Lin Yan and Yu Qian met up. Only the two of them had entered the sect recently.
Yu Qian asked curiously, “What were you talking about just now? Why did Senior Brother Big Yan run away?”
“Nothing.”
Yu Qian couldn’t be bothered to ask further.
When Eldest Senior Brother came over, the two of them met him together.
The three of them walked to the empty space at the side. Zang Wei said with a cold expression, “Yu Qian, practice it once first.”
Yu Qian agreed and started practicing the Five Animal Hands Technique.
When she was done, she panted slightly and her face was half red. She said charmingly, “Eldest Senior Brother, I’m done practicing.”
Zang Wei nodded expressionlessly. “You’ve mastered the basics in three days. Your talent is considered top-notch, and you didn’t slack off. Not bad.”
Lin Yan was also watching from the side. Yu Qian’s movements were quite accurate. If it was converted to him, it would be about 15% proficiency.
He frowned slightly. This progress was a little slow. Wouldn’t the difference between them be huge?
“Lin Yan!”
Zang Wei suddenly shouted.
“Eldest Senior Brother.”
“Lin Yan, have you never been to the martial arts arena in the past two days?” Eldest Senior Brother would occasionally patrol the four drill grounds.
“Eldest Senior Brother, I come to the martial arts arena at night to train.”
“At night?” Zang Wei’s cold eyes were like lightning as he stared at Lin Yan, making Lin Yan’s skin tingle.
But he looked straight ahead, neither arrogant nor impetuous.
At the side, Yu Qian pursed her lips and a look of disdain flashed across her eyes. How dare he lie to Eldest Senior Brother now? He was hopeless!
Zang Wei frowned slightly. “In that case, you can demonstrate once.”
“Yes, sir!”
There was no need to think about hiding his strength. With his current proficiency, he could only understand it just now. He did not have the ability to hide his strength.
He immediately practiced the Five Animal Hands with all his might.
“Eh?”
Zang Wei didn’t have much expectations at first, but when Lin Yan moved, a glint flashed across his eyes.
“Looks like he didn’t lie. Interesting, interesting…”
At the side, Yu Qian originally had a teasing smile on her face, but after watching Lin Yan practice for a while, the smile on her face slowly stiffened.
How, how was this possible!
Even though she had only been in contact with the Five Animal Hands for three days, she could tell that Lin Yan’s movements were much more proficient than hers. His movements were smooth and unobstructed, and he was full of strength.
After the set of actions, Lin Yan’s face wasn’t red and he wasn’t panting. Instead, his skin was slightly red, as if blood energy was flowing.
“Lin Yan, have you learned the Five Animal Hands before?”
Lin Yan’s heart tightened. “Eldest Senior Brother, I’ve never learned it.”
“Good! Looks like you’re quite talented in the Five Animal Hands. In just three days, you’ve actually cultivated the Five Animal Hands to the initial level. This is your talent. You must practice diligently and complete the blood energy transformation as soon as possible!”
Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat. “Eldest Senior Brother, what is the blood energy transformation?”
Zang Wei was in a good mood as he explained, “In order to grasp the martial arts, one’s blood energy has to transform first.
“When the Five Animal Hands is cultivated to a certain realm, the blood energy in the body will spontaneously gather in all parts of the body, forming a bloated and boiling state. This is the so-called blood energy limit.
“At this moment, if I can use the boiling of my blood energy to break through the limit of my blood energy, I can complete a blood energy transformation and strengthen my muscles and bones, reaching the entry level of martial artists.
“For people like us with weaker foundations, we can only withstand the circulation of blood energy after our blood energy transforms. We can start cultivating true martial arts techniques after that.”
Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat. “Could it be that Wu Yard’s assessment is the transformation of blood energy?”
“That’s right. Those with martial arts aptitude can succeed in two months at most.
“If you can’t reach it in two months, it means that you don’t have any martial arts aptitude. There’s no point in cultivating anymore.
“Therefore, Wu Yard’s assessment is set to take place in two months.”
Lin Yan suddenly understood. “Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother.”
Zang Wei glanced at him and continued, “However, you don’t have to be arrogant. Every martial arts cultivation technique is different. Some practice fists, some practice legs, some practice weapons, and some practice movement techniques. Although they are similar, everyone’s forte is always different.
“For example, when someone practices fist techniques, it would be as if God was helping them, but their leg techniques and body techniques are far inferior…”
As if it had evoked Zang Wei’s sadness, he fell silent for a moment before saying, “You just happen to have some expertise from practicing the Five Animal Hands Technique. It doesn’t mean that you’ll improve so quickly when practicing other martial arts.
“I’ve seen many disciples like you who improved at lightning speed in the early stages.
“However, there are very few people who can really walk the path of martial arts far and long.
“Therefore, you can’t be arrogant and complacent. Practice the Five Animal Hands well and break through as soon as possible to maximize your advantage.”
Lin Yan said respectfully, “I’ve learned something!”
However, he knew in his heart that he did not really have any talent. It was just that… with the help of the proficiency display, he could improve quickly!
With every punch, he could see his improvement. He could also adjust his movements at any time to reach a more perfect standard…
Only then could he maintain his high enthusiasm and not take the wrong path.
Yu Qian walked over resentfully. “Lin Yan, you hid it so well. You came over at night on purpose, right?”
“You’ve misunderstood.” Lin Yan did not explain further.
Yu Qian gritted her teeth. How could he be so perfunctory!
Wasn’t he just a poor kid? Without money to support him, let’s see how far his martial arts path could go.
“Alright, I’ll continue to guide you guys. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.”
Another intensive two-hour lecture.
After the lesson ended, Yu Qian looked at Lin Yan with a complicated gaze.
Her progress was rather slow, and Eldest Senior Brother could not guide her much.
On the other hand, Lin Yan had endless questions. Eldest Senior Brother spent most of his time guiding Lin Yan, which indirectly reduced the time he spent on her.
“Hey, Lin Yan! Wait, there’s something I didn’t understand just now. Can you…”
Lin Yan didn’t even turn around. “I still have something on. Let’s talk about it next time!”
“Hey, hey… Ah… Bastard!”
