The basic Eight Pieces of Brocade is actually not very difficult.
Practicing the entire set from beginning to end isn't too painful... but this thing is one of the main martial arts techniques used by middle school students in this world's Great Xia to condense their inner energy.
Although the difficulty is not high, considering the continuous improvement in the precision of the moves and the continuous increase in practice efficiency.
It will still put a significant burden on the human body.
After all, no matter how basic it is, it's still a kind of supernatural martial art!
For example, right now, a normal practice of Baduanjin, including warm-up exercises, takes about 20 minutes.
In this physical education class, Wu Peng even demanded that a round be completed within one minute!
Furthermore, it requires a certain level of precision in the moves!
As a result, various problems such as side stitches, distorted movements, and muscle strains began to appear.
The playground was filled with cries of despair.
Combined with the training music that sped up proportionally due to increased drill efficiency, it sounded somewhat bizarre...
and many more……
In his "simple lines" state, Bai Hui, who didn't need to worry about the precision of his moves, suddenly realized something was wrong—
Where did that music come from?!
And it's surround sound?!
He couldn't help but turn his head left and right, trying to find where the speaker was.
"Focus!"
Wu Peng, his voice flickering, gave Bai Hui his instructions in a highly human-machine-like tone.
"Your technique is indeed very precise; even I, your teacher, couldn't find any fault with it at first glance."
But you can't let your mind wander... There are no shortcuts in martial arts training; that's a major taboo!
Bai Hui blinked.
Looking at the densely packed figures of Wu Peng on the playground, a sudden inspiration struck him. He focused his inner energy into his eyes, and black and red energy threads flickered in his pupils, allowing him to see even more—
Wu Peng's presence became more frequent.
Wu Peng's figure, standing in front of each student and pointing at them one by one, seemed to be connected by long afterimages of him running wildly between each pair of students...
He was moving back and forth at high speed!
However, there is a pause of about 0.1 to 0.2 seconds in front of each student.
This created the illusion that he was simultaneously instructing hundreds of students!
To be able to simultaneously teach every student under such circumstances requires not only terrifying speed, but also extremely formidable logical thinking and multi-threaded processing abilities!
Even in this state, when instructing other students, the precision with which he demonstrated the Eight Pieces of Brocade was not much inferior to that of Bai Hui under the "simple lines" technique!
Bai Hui smacked his lips subconsciously.
Even if he glimpses the principle behind it, he still can't learn it for the time being!
This is pure numerical superiority!
[Having gained insight into some of the skills and techniques of high-level martial artists, sanity value decreases by 3.]
Bai Hui roughly understood the "cloning technique," but he still didn't know where the "surround sound" "training music" came from.
Fortunately, it's class time now, so Bai Hui can ask directly if he doesn't understand something.
"Teacher Wu, where did you hide the speaker?"
Bai Hui directly questioned Wu Peng, who was flashing.
Wu Peng flashed expressions of surprise repeatedly. The thought of Wu Peng moving at an incredibly high speed, passing by him countless times and stringing together these "surprised" expressions at an alarming rate, made Bai Hui's sanity plummet.
It's really hard to keep up with imagining things like this!
"Sound system? What sound system? Oh... you mean the 'muscle and bone resonating' technique? That's not something you can control right now."
Wu Peng chuckled and said that Bai Hui's moves were extremely precise, and he also admired this student who had only recently mastered the Heart Sutra.
"Once you've mastered Xingyi Quan and can maintain the precision of your moves, it won't be long before you're able to achieve the state of 'muscle and bone resonating in unison'."
However, to reach my current level, one would need at least a solid grasp of music theory and a strong foundation in mathematics...
Of course, medical knowledge is also necessary, otherwise it's impossible to directly identify the problems students encounter during practice...
"The muscles and bones resonate... does that apply to music too?!"
"It's very simple. Just adjust the rhythm and intensity of the friction between the bones and muscles, and so on."
What incredible rhythm!!!
"Don't underestimate this 'Muscle and Bone Resonance' technique. If you ever encounter an insurmountable danger in the future, mastering it will allow you to shout for help while fighting with all your might."
Also, if you ever participate in any competitions or martial arts events in the future, and if you have the opportunity, you can use the "muscle and bone resonance" technique to say the "GG" phrase...
One of the requirements many investors have for collaborators is whether they are proficient in articulating intonation and clear pronunciation.
If you master this move, you can benefit from it for life!
Bai Hui: "..."
[Upon learning the principles of abstract martial arts, sanity decreased by 15].
……
Bai Hui and Wu Peng were chatting in unison, while in the rear formation...
Feng Jue was staring intently at Bai Hui's back.
The extremely precise movements possess an indescribable and unique beauty, even when simply observed.
His breathing gradually became heavy, but he was still trying his best to maintain the correctness of his breathing technique.
"Such high precision, such incredible physical control! I must learn that!"
He is currently the best performing student in Class 3 of Grade 11, besides Bai Hui, in this physical education class!
The other students fared even worse.
His breathing was heavy and erratic, like a broken bellows; his movements were visibly distorted; under the intense training, even his vision began to blur, leaving him no energy to observe the situation of others…
They were all drenched in sweat, and their muscles ached terribly.
……
Twenty minutes later.
After practicing the "Basic Eight Pieces of Brocade" 25 times with high intensity, the students lay down one by one without any regard for their image after Wu Peng shouted "Dismissed," their chests heaving violently and their breath coming in gasps.
My eyes were spinning, and I had no energy left to pay attention to anything else; all I wanted to do was rest.
Only Feng Jue did not lie down immediately, but instead gritted her teeth and massaged herself to relieve muscle strain.
He knew very well that if he didn't do this, the soreness in his muscles would be even more intense in the afternoon and even tomorrow!
As for Li Youye... he was the one who was scolded the most by Wu Peng in Class 3 of Grade 11 during this class.
Only Bai Hui's skin was slightly red, his body temperature was noticeably higher, and even the top of his head was faintly misty under the sunlight—he was actually smoking.
Aside from that, Bai Hui's muscles didn't feel particularly uncomfortable.
His moves are extremely precise, almost perfect, and apart from the physical exertion, the strain is negligible!
"Excellent, very good!"
Wu Peng praised, "Your mastery of the Eight Pieces of Brocade is almost at its current limit. The precision of your moves is even the best I've taught in recent years!"
But why didn't you have this level of precision before?
Could it be because of those dream devices at home that have been accumulating power for so long and finally unleashing their full potential?
The other students are still early. Come with me first, I'll teach you Xingyi Quan.
As he spoke, Wu Peng started flashing the lights again.
They encouraged the students who were lying down to get up and massage each other to relieve muscle fatigue.
Xingyi Quan?!
Bai Hui felt a slight warmth rising in his heart.
He immediately followed Wu Peng.
At this moment, most of the students had temporarily lost their ability to move. Due to the excessive exertion, their eyes were dizzy, and they had almost no energy left to continue paying attention to Bai Hui.
The other two classes were in a similar situation.
However, three students from the two classes still managed to participate in the "second half" of the physical education class.
One of them, Bai Hui recognized—it was a classmate from his high school days in his previous life, after they were divided into arts and sciences tracks and fast and slow classes.
Tian Qiyuan!
