Chapter 279 Invitation
Chapter 279 Invitation
On the first day of March, Chen Chuan arrived at Teacher Zheng's residence early in the morning. Today he will learn how to attack and enter the most important training stage of the entire teaching.
After the teacher and student met, Mr. Zheng, according to previous practice, first taught him various power techniques for attacking with sword moves. After he had mastered the basics, he said:
"The power of attack is different from that of defense, but the alienated organizations used are complementary to the previous ones. Only when both are combined can it be complete, so remember not to neglect this stage of defense training."
After giving the instructions quickly, he brought Chen Chuan to the familiar training ground, took a long sword similar to Xue Jun's sword from the rack, and threw it to him.
After Chen Chuan took it, he found it extremely heavy and immediately realized that it was a heavy knife. He looked up and saw Zheng Tongtong holding a similar knife in his hand.
Teacher Zheng said, "Now, it's your turn to attack. You are only allowed to use the power-carrying techniques I just taught you. Try to force Tongtong to retreat from where he is."
Zheng Tongtong swung the knife in her hand lightly, and her strong arm was like fiddling with a straw. She said, "Junior, just go ahead."
Chen Chuan understood that it was time to switch from offense to defense. He could use this opportunity to see how Zheng Tongtong would defend. He turned his wrist and said, "Senior Zheng, get ready."
He knew that the father and daughter were both straightforward people, so after he finished speaking, he stepped forward, used the method that Teacher Zheng had just taught him, mobilized the alienated tissue and exerted his strength, and chopped down Zheng Tongtong on the head with a single blow!
However, this powerful and heavy blow only made a slight contact sound. The two knives clearly touched each other, but it felt as if they did not hit each other. No one knew where the force went.
Zheng Tongtong's posture was very relaxed, and it was hard to tell how much strength she used, but with just such a casual block, she was able to drain all his strength.
It seemed that she didn't even sink under the weight, as if she was truly using the alienated tissues throughout her body to share all the strength, and not a single bit of it leaked out.
Chen Chuan took a breath, adjusted himself, and slowly raised the knife. If he wanted to break through the defense, he had to increase the efficiency of his strength and use more power in an instant.
Just like in the previous defense, he must gain experience in the offense, and try to figure out the techniques of transforming strength again and again to break through the obstacles ahead.
Offense may seem easier than defense, but it is actually more challenging.
But one thing is that the attack is always proactive. When to launch the attack and how to launch it are all in his hands.
This time he raised his hands and held the long sword high. All the alienated tissues in his body were mobilized bit by bit. When he felt that he could no longer mobilize them, he took a bow step forward and slashed down heavily!
Zheng Tongtong raised her knife and with a clang, she was like an immovable weight, her wrist didn't shake at all and she held his knife. Even the subsequent force was absorbed by her.
Chen Chuan could clearly feel that this was far from Zheng Tongtong's limit. Her strong body seemed to be able to withstand more power, and his knife strike was not able to force her to use her full skills.
But he knew in his heart that in fact Zheng Tongtong could use far fewer alienated organizations than he did. It was just these alienated organizations that were used to this extent that were able to easily resolve his offensive. The efficiency and variability of using alienated organizations was exactly what he needed to learn.
So instead of feeling disappointed, he was cheered up. Through Zheng Tongtong's application, he saw a better way to use defense, and he also learned defensive skills while practicing offense. This was simply a double gain.
continue!
He took a few steps back, turned around, and slashed with the sword. Zheng Tongtong held the handle of the sword with one hand and the spine of the sword with the other, pushed it forward, and with a clang, he blocked it steadily again.
Chen Chuan's slashing sword was extremely powerful due to the momentum and the weight of the blade itself, but Zheng Tongtong absorbed this force with his own strong bones and alienated tissues, and the actual power remaining in the blade seemed to be very little.
Chen Chuan then tried various slashing attacks. As the efficiency of his skills improved, not only did his attack speed increase, but the power of each swing also increased significantly.
But no matter how he improved, this senior sister Zheng was like a sponge, always absorbing and dissolving his strength, making it impossible for him to exert the power of the sword.
After three whole days, no progress was made.
But he was not discouraged. He could truly feel his improvement, and the effect of the sunlight was gradually showing, and the strength of his muscles and bones was increasing.
Especially at the end, he found that Zheng Tongtong was no longer blocking in place like she did at the beginning, but adopted the same method as before, actively blocking his attack before the blade fell completely below, which showed that he was gradually approaching the defensive limit of this senior sister.
In the following days, his sword strikes were not as tightly connected as before. Instead, he would often prepare for a while before striking out, and then gradually increase the rhythm of his strikes on this basis.
On the seventh day, as he slashed with his sword, Zheng Tongtong's sword suddenly vibrated like a wave. She couldn't help but step back half a step. She couldn't help but give him a thumbs up, and was really happy for him: "Junior brother, well done!"
Chen Chuan held the knife and clasped his fists, saying, "Thank you, senior sister. I'm honored."
This was really a concession, because the blade Zheng Tongtong used was probably not his most skilled one. If it was a weapon he was familiar with, then the previous blow would definitely not be so easy to force it to move. In terms of skills, he still has a long way to go.
Teacher Zheng said with satisfaction: "It's good to know your shortcomings, but don't be too modest. How long have you been training? This performance is good. You have passed this training. The next step is light sword training, and then light and heavy double sword training.
According to your progress, you should be able to master the basics this month. After that, you will enter the real combat training, which is the real focus. If you don't practice well, don't even think about passing my assessment. Okay, go back and rest first, and come back in the middle of the month."
Chen Chuan thanked Mr. Zheng and his daughter. If possible, he would like to continue training, but they also have their own things to do, and he can't fall behind in some of his daily training. In a blink of an eye, it was another day off. He called his aunt's home and Mr. Cheng's place, told them about the recent situation, and told them not to worry.
He also received a telegram from Gao Ming, saying that the things on hand had been almost dealt with, the procedures had been completed, and they were ready to go to the central city.
It will just be a little later than the original schedule and will arrive around the end of March. The details will be notified in advance.
At noon, when he was looking through some public fighting materials in the academy, Ni Qianqian called him. Thinking it might be about the Bureau, he answered the call. Ni Qianqian's voice said, "Brother Chen, are you in the academy building?"
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Yes, is there any other mission to be carried out?"
"Yes and no, is it convenient for you? I'll take you to a place, come over right away."
Chen Chuan said: "I have time."
"See you later then."
Chen Chuan was very concerned about some of the affairs of the Processing Bureau. After all, as his investor, the resources provided by the Processing Bureau could effectively improve him. He packed up a bit and came down from upstairs.
After waiting for a while, he saw a red sports car coming from the opposite corner, drifting in front of him and stopping. Ni Qianqian raised her purple goggles and tossed her wavy hair, "Brother Chen, get in the car."
Chen Chuan walked over, opened the passenger door and sat in. He fastened his seat belt and the car sped away.
Ni Qianqian said as she drove, "Wei Wusheng is really good at hiding. He has been hiding for a long time. And the case you were involved in before, do you remember those attackers?"
Chen Chuanshuo said: "I remember, it seems that one of the leaders escaped."
Ni Qianqian said: "It's him. We were originally tracking him, but later we found that he escaped to the Lower City through the Moss Gang. Someone in the bureau suggested that you go down to track him, but I immediately rejected it. What a joke! The Lower City is a big problem. Although you are capable, you are not at that level yet.
But I rejected this matter. They may arrange another thing for you recently, which is more troublesome, so you have to pay attention. "
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Thank you, Sister Ni, for reminding me."
"Well, let me tell you something else. Someone wants to see you today and specifically asked me to come find you."
"see me?"
Chen Chuan thought about it and came up with a possibility.
The sports car did not leave Wuding District. A few minutes later, it turned into the largest private green park in the district, parked outside, greeted him, showed his identity to the security personnel at the entrance, and then took him inside.
There is a huge lake here, where people can be seen boating leisurely on the lake. At this moment, the spring breeze blows, and the willows on the shore sway slightly. There is no colorful light and shadow that can be seen everywhere outside, and it looks very clean.
After passing an arch bridge and a series of wooden corridors, they came to a pavilion. An unremarkable old man was directing a child. When they approached, he looked back at Chen Chuan and said, "Young man, you are here."
Chen Chuan said: "Mr. Cheng." This old man was Cheng Zitong's uncle, Cheng Shang. He had met him once in the Yangzhi City Court and had talked to him for a few words.
Cheng Shang waved his hand and let the child go play by himself. He walked to the stone table in the middle of the pavilion and sat down, saying, "You two young people, take a seat."
Ni Qianqian walked to the side and sat next to the beauty. Chen Chuan thanked her and sat down on the stone bench in front of Cheng Shang.
Cheng Shang said, "Young man, when we were in Yangzhi City, Zi Tong always praised you in front of me. Since you came to the Central City, I have also been paying attention to you. So far, it seems that you have adapted quite well. I called you here today because there is an internal exchange competition and asked if you are willing to participate. Miss Ni, please explain it to me."
Ni Qianqian said, "Brother Chen, you should know that in addition to Wuyi College, there are some other traditions in Central City that use traditional teaching methods, right?"
Chen Chuan nodded to indicate that he knew. For example, the senior brother of his teacher Cheng Zitong, the disciple he taught was nominally his classmate, but he had never seen him from beginning to end. At most, he was just a nominal member of Wuyi.
Ni Qianqian pointed at herself with her slender fingers and said, "I, your sister Ni, came out this way, but it is not advisable to work in isolation, so the disciples taught by traditional methods will find ways to have internal exchanges with some students of Wuyi College every year to test their own strengths and weaknesses.
Since you are an acquaintance, Senior Cheng suggested that you participate this time. However, we will not let people work in vain, we will pay them, Brother Chen, what do you think?"
Chen Chuan said sincerely: "I am willing to learn and improve together with all the students."
