Chapter 24 Martial Arts Knowledge Points

Yue Feng raised the shield-shaped rock slab of his right arm and held it horizontally in front of his chest, imitating Du Luo's movement.

"Martial Arts: Charge!"

He mustered all his strength to sprint, running a hundred meters away with a thud.

But nothing happened; it really was just running.

This kind of experience where you can't feel anything is really awful.

It was completely different from practicing the Thousand Spinning Techniques with Yue Feng.

Back then, with each punch he threw, he could keenly discern the fit and flaws in the execution of the moves.

There's a feeling that it should have been that way.

But now he's like a brain in a vat, completely unaware of whether he's using his body correctly.

"Learning martial arts without skill books is really difficult!"

Yue Feng shook his head and could only walk back helplessly.

"Mr. Earth Element, your movements aren't very precise, but your running has a lot of power."

Duro slowly released his grip on the sword hilt, bent down to pick up the diary, and patiently explained:

"When you charge, you should feel the shield cutting through the air and pushing against the gale."

Imagine yourself as an enraged bull! A bull about to toss everyone away!

After saying that, he handed the diary to Yue Feng and continued:

"This handwritten manuscript is a reflection I wrote when I was learning assault tactics in my early years. It might be of some help to you."

Yue Feng understood the meaning of the phrase "when charging forward, you must become like an ox."

The sand above the emerald eyes frowned.

I must have misunderstood.

You can't actually turn into a bull and charge at people, can you? Or are you going to shape the bull's horns into shields?

"Practice makes perfect! Keep practicing!"

"Martial Arts: Charge!"

They ran out quickly.

"Martial Arts: Charge!"

Then it ran back.

They practiced like this for over an hour.

Ding.

Condition: Moderate fatigue.

The moment the status panel appeared before Yue Feng's eyes, the layer of rock and sand on his body suddenly peeled off and fell to the ground.

He subconsciously drew earth elemental energy from the ground, but found that no matter how he tried to activate it, he couldn't absorb much.

"Huh? What's going on? The elemental energy is so thin."

"Uh, I'm in the material plane, so it's alright then."

Yue Feng began to miss the pure energy and supergravity environment of the Earth Elemental Plane.

It's much more fun to train in the spring!

He walked slowly to Du Luo's side and said, "Brother, I've almost finished my training. It's your turn to train."

Yue Feng had already noticed that from the moment they began practicing martial arts, Du Luo had been gripping the sword hilt tightly and had never let go.

They were clearly on guard against John escaping.

So, while the two were changing shifts, Yue Feng conjured a rock chain and firmly bound John's feet.

"Be careful when practicing the Thousand Spinning Technique, don't let your arm fly off!"

In terms of martial arts training, Yue Feng has very little experience to offer.

He couldn't just tell people directly.

That's right! Just keep twisting it like that until it's completely broken. If the arm gets twisted, just tear it off and rebuild a new one.

That would make you a menace!

However, the knowledge passed down in skill books is the most authoritative and orthodox.

Followed by.

Yue Feng pulled out the forepaw joint of Kunamota from its belly, held it in his palm, and polished it back and forth with a rough rock.

The movement was exactly the same as the way my grandfather used to play with walnuts.

............

Five days later, in the early morning.

These past few days, the progress of the two people practicing martial arts has been very slow.

Yue Feng still failed to launch a single charge, but his balance while running at high speed became increasingly stable.

Duro had exhausted all the inherited knowledge in the professional manual, but still couldn't grasp the basics of the Thousand Twists and Turns.

Yue Feng was not surprised by this.

I had to use up two inheritances of knowledge from the professional manual (skill book) to learn the Thousand Twists and Turns.

Moreover, this was only achieved with minimal rest throughout the entire process.

However, Yue Feng was not discouraged.

At least he can clearly and intuitively see his skill level through the system panel.

Others can only rely on intuition to roughly estimate their progress in mastering martial arts.

Duro once said that to learn an apprentice-level martial art, one must practice diligently for at least several months before even getting a basic grasp of it.

"Perhaps this is the normal speed. My 24/7 training method in the Earth Elemental Plane was purely due to exploiting a bug."

Yue Feng also learned that...

At the Adventurers' Guild, you can learn martial arts and magic in one place.

There are three learning methods.

The first option is to buy skill books, which are essentially copied versions of books.

The advantage is its low price, but since it is a copied version, there may be minor problems such as typos and misalignments.

Besides, without any hands-on instruction, buyers can only work in isolation.

Apprentice-level martial arts skills typically sell for 40 to 80 silver coins, depending on the skill's popularity.

The second option is to pay to learn from retired adventurers.

It's similar to enrolling in extracurricular tutoring classes.

Although the price is a bit high, experienced adventurers will provide hands-on instruction, and you can ask questions at any time if you encounter any problems.

The course fee is usually 1 to 2 silver coins per lesson, and it does not guarantee that you will learn how to do it.

The third option is to directly purchase a professional skill manual, which is a true skill book.

The only downside is that it's too expensive; even apprentice-level martial arts and magic can cost more than a dozen gold coins.

There's a price but no market for it.

However, career guides can only help buyers get started quickly, and there are strict limits on the number of times they can be used.

The martial arts and magic techniques recorded in the professional manuals can only be passed on to one person three times.

If you fail to learn it after using up all three chances, you'll have to rely on your own hard work.

Yue Feng also learned a little trick for using skill books.

That is a professional secret manual for finding the last remaining use of a skill.

By receiving the inheritance just once, one can lay a foundation for oneself, so that one will not have to feel one's way across the river when learning martial arts and magic.

Just like Du Luo now, when he learns "Thousands of Turns" in the future, his progress and speed will far exceed those of ordinary people.

Yue Feng collected his thoughts.

As usual, he conjured rock chains to bind John tightly and forced him to relieve himself.

Suddenly, lines of semi-transparent data text appeared before my eyes.

Ding.

Status: Disconnected (No signal)

Your time in the material plane is less than 3 hour. Please switch your mana source as soon as possible.

Magic: Change Form lv4 (Beginner) upgraded to lv5

The transformation level has been reached to the maximum, and it is no longer possible to gain professional level experience.

Now you can sculpt your body with greater precision, and even make minor repairs to any injuries.

However, do not attempt to repair your body on your own without sufficient medical knowledge.

—Oh my god! An earth elemental, it's standing up!

......

Yue Feng stared at the refreshed information and fell into deep thought.

It seems that John's summoning contract has expired.

Also, what does it mean to sculpt the body more precisely?

Do you carve decorations for yourself while fighting?

"etc!"

"Does 'more refined' mean you could create a mouth for yourself?"
