On the morning of the second day, at the training hall, Luo Zheng and the others stood in a line of stones, calmly watching the Tiger King proudly standing in front. Having been back for a while, with good spirits and nutrition, the Tiger King had gained quite a bit of weight, but appeared even more imposing. Wearing a perfectly fitting training outfit, he exuded an aura of commanding presence that was awe-inspiring.
The Tiger King glanced at Luo Zheng with satisfaction, swept his eyes over the entire hall, and shouted, "Everyone, I've heard about your situation. Since you're going to kill the enemy, I'm standing here to give you special training. If I hear that you fail at the critical mont, slack off, or act foolishly, you'd better not co back. Otherwise, I'll beat your asses up. Do you understand?"
"Yes." Everyone shouted with enthusiasm, their blood surging with excitent, their fighting spirit high.
"Good. No need for more words, listen carefully." The Tiger King looked serious and shouted, "A month with a staff, a year with a blade, a lifeti with a gun, carry the precious sword at all tis, describing the difficulty of mastering these four types of weapons. Practicing the blade requires at least a year for minor achievents, three years for exceptional talent, and five years for ordinary talent if seeking major success. You've studied for so ti, but now I've only reserved a month for you to learn the blade. It's impossible, I'll try my best to teach, and you better learn well, or else don't bla for flipping out."
"Yes." Everyone said enthusiastically. As long as the Tiger King is willing to teach life-saving skills, only a fool would not learn. No one will joke about their own life.
"Listen, I only say things once." The Tiger King continued shouting with satisfaction, "From ancient tis, the path of the blade has been heavy and forceful. Compared to the sword, the blade technique has fewer transformations but is equally powerful. Single blade focuses on hand skills, double blade looks at movent. In blade technique, the holding hand and step skill are extrely important. As for techniques, they are nothing but the Eight Skills: sweep, chop, block, slash, press, dodge, cut, and thrust. Even the sword skills from Japan are within this scope."
Everyone, hearing this summary for the first ti, felt intrigued, raised their ears in fear of missing a word. Knowing these are experiences that can save lives on the battlefield. Of course, understanding depends on individual talent, and the saying 'Master leads, practice depends on oneself' describes this principle.
Luo Zheng also listened intently while pondering the key points, considering if combining the blade technique with his Life-taking Nails could form a greater power. Single blade, single Life-taking Nail, theoretically possible, but mastering it requires multitasking. This is challenging, and Luo Zheng plans to find an opportunity to consult with the Tiger King.
At this ti, the Tiger King continued, "My Invisible Blade Skill draws from ancient experience while breaking out of this scope. The greatest form is formless, the best technique is no technique, as Laozi said, non-action achieves everything."
Philosophy is about the nature, fundantal rules of existence, the relationship between thought and existence, and martial arts is the sa. Everyone listening seed vaguely aware of a mysterious door to martial arts opening, afraid to miss a word, held their breath and looked at the Tiger King with deep focus.
The Tiger King didn't explain further, continuing, "Invisible Blade Skill originates from Laozi's non-action philosophy, nature inherently has no action. If you cling to non-action, then action arises. Simply put, everything in the world mutually counteracts, techniques are similar, all have traces to follow. Against a master, it gets restricted, losing combat effectiveness. If you have no technique, how can the opponent counter you? So, forget about those pathetic techniques, even the army's Killing Skill is traceable."
Faces turned surprised, realizing the army's Killing Skill is their lifeline. If forgotten, what will they do on the battlefield? Everyone looked at Luo Zheng, who was absorbed in thought, seemingly at a higher level of comprehension. Suddenly, they realized forgetting doesn't an not using, but expressing in an invisible form.
The Tiger King paused here to give everyone ti to think. Seeing everyone in deep thought, faces solemn, he secretly sighed in relief. As long as everyone can think, and know how to think, it's easier to deal with later. After a while, seeing many realizing expressions, he smiled.
After a bit longer, everyone's gaze heated up. Seeing this, the Tiger King said with satisfaction, "Good, it seems you've had so thoughts. Invisible Blade Skill emphasizes formlessness, but is supported by a step skill and ntal thod. Step skill can help avoid attacks, ntal thod allows control of breath freely, maximizing power. When breathing is obstructed or disrupted, power weakens, like we say, 'unable to draw in a deep breath', how can you fight if breathing is off?"
Everyone understood this, laughing knowingly. The Tiger King then began teaching the step skill and ntal thod, as both need to be used together, and demonstrated on the spot. Step skill and ntal thod are core elents, not taught to outsiders. In ancient tis, it was said to be passed within, not outside.
The Tiger King's selfless teaching made everyone grateful. Each learned earnestly, as they were well-trained elite soldiers, quickly grasped the combat techniques, plus with the Tiger King's one-on-one guidance, tailored by ability, learning was rapid.
In the coming days, aside from extre military skill training in the morning, they practiced martial arts in the training hall until late night, using long swords originally from Japan, renad Dragon Tooth. Luo Zheng and others used the captured ones, while others used specially crafted ones by the Equipnt Team.
Luo Zheng shared the idea of combining blade technique and Life-taking Nails with the Tiger King privately. After examining Luo Zheng's Life-taking Nails, the Tiger King imdiately designed a targeted training program for Luo Zheng, and personally sparred with him. Luo Zheng's blade technique improved rapidly, faintly showing the deanor of a master, which delighted the Tiger King.
A month later, everyone's blade techniques had greatly progressed. The Tiger King left, and everyone gathered in the conference room for a pre-mission mobilization eting. Three action teams participated; the mission was heavier, not a single person could be left out. Hong ihua, seeing everyone had trained tirelessly for a month, spiritually transford, knew the results were good, secretly happy for everyone, also pleased with the Fourth Squadron's combat power boost, said, "Brothers, you've worked hard. It's ti to set out, are you all ready?"
"Ready." Everyone shouted in unison, their fighting spirit high.
