Chapter 103 Battle with Xing Yun_3

Lin Su, in his martial body from Shenwu, had started to show signs of strain in areas such as the palms, following this period of intense training.But in Blue Star, this body was not only that of a regular human but had never trained in martial arts; it merely inherited the marksmanship honed in Shenwu through consciousness and memory.

This was an issue Lin Su had never considered before.

At this moment, he was quite relieved that he had discovered this issue earlier, after sparring with Xing Yun.

If he had foolishly taken a long spear into battle as previously planned, he wouldn't last long before the base of his thumb split and his combat effectiveness drastically reduced…

That would have indeed been a joke.

Therefore, he not only needed to practice his marksmanship but also figure out a way to enhance the physical quality of his body in this world.

Lin Su pushed open the door of his dormitory, leaned back on the sofa, and fell into deep thought.

…

The fifteen days of training at the preparatory camp began from tomorrow.

The members of the preparatory camp who had just arrived at the military camp were actually undergoing additional training today.

As Xing Yun put it, since they had come already.

Since they were at the military camp, it wasn't possible to let them idle away, so they might as well train.

Fifteen days plus half a day extra—they surely got a good deal.

Ignooring the cries of those who didn't want such a good deal, after an hour's rest at noon, Xing Yun once again under the burning sun, led his team to the training field to start their afternoon regimen.

Running laps with weighted rings, standing at attention in weighted armor, static jumping with weights…

All training activities instantly became devilish once the word "weighted" was added.

It turned out that the weighted laps in the morning were just Xing Yun allowing the team members to slightly adapt to the conditions, without really pushing them hard.

By afternoon, everyone's weighted rings were replaced with five-jin weights, and Zhao Tianchen, who had picked up a five-jin hoop in the morning, under the half-smiling watch of Instructor Xing, reluctantly switched to a six-jin hoop.

As Instructor Xing said, a whole noon had passed; there should be some progress, five jin in the morning meant it naturally had to be higher in the afternoon.

Zhao Tianchen's heart was crying out, but his expression remained calm and composed.

This was his last bit of stubborn resistance.

And another action by Xing Yun made the whole team moan in agony again.

He no longer allowed the Beast Tamers' creatures to train alongside the team members.

On the training field, he specifically demarcated an area for the team members' tamed beasts to train and spar among themselves.

This was naturally beneficial for the beasts; running laps with their Beast Tamers did not provide them any real training effect.

But for the team members, this meant that they no longer enjoyed the various conveniences secretly provided by their beasts.

After the afternoon's training ended, the first day at the military camp was still not over.

After dinner, Xing Yun's team had only half an hour of rest before they were pulled back to the brightly lit training field under the night sky to start their evening training.

It was only late at night that their training finally ended.

Luckily, after each round of training, everyone in Xing Yun's team received healing from the Mushroom Power, relieving their fatigue; otherwise, they would have hardly been able to withstand the day's brutal training.

After the evening's training ended, carrying the day's fatigue, Lin Su didn't hesitate to recall his two beasts back into the Beast Taming Space and fell asleep immediately.

According to Xing Yun, they would wake up very early tomorrow morning, so every minute of sleep was precious, especially so for Lin Su, who needed to run between two places.

…

Shenwu world, noon.

"Your progress in gun training this morning was substantial."

Lin Zhen Nan effortlessly grabbed the golden-brown, fragrant roast lamb from the table, tore off two tender legs, placed one in front of Lin Su, and then took a bite from the other, chewing as he spoke, "Yesterday, you could barely last for several seconds under my hand, today you managed over thirty."

Lin Su cut two large pieces from the lamb leg for Qiuqiu and Ghost, letting the little fellows savor their meal. Biting into the lamb leg himself, he asked, "Dad, where did I fall short in today's sparring?"

"Let me think…" Lin Zhen Nan chewed on the lamb, pondered for a moment, and then said, "In the fourth round today, when I used that splitting-to-crushing maneuver, you could have countered like this…"

Talking about marksmanship excited Lin's father, and he became even more animated when he reached the crucial points, putting down the lamb leg and gesturing in the air with his greasy hands.

Chen Yu sat beside them, smiling as she watched her husband and son discuss at the dining table. She took her time tasting the dishes, occasionally feeding Lin Su's two beasts some treats, her graceful demeanor contrasting starkly with the rugged eating style of the father and son, yet making the scene all the more heartwarming.

With his father's guidance on what he lacked in response, Lin Su mentally noted it down, planning to try it out in the afternoon. He couldn't help but look up at Lin Zhen Nan again, "Dad, if... I mean, if someone who has never trained in martial arts or cultivated martial paths suddenly becomes proficient in a certain martial art, what would happen?"

"Is there such a thing?" Lin Zhen Nan broke off the tenderest part of the roast lamb, the spine, and placed half of it in front of Lin Su, showing interest at the question, "A world so vast indeed holds many wonders, mastering martial arts without training?"

After a moment's thought, Lin Zhen Nan shook his head, "That wouldn't really work. If that were the case, his body probably wouldn't be able to support the execution of the martial arts."

"Martial arts, after all, are but a skill; they're simply the application of bodily strength. If the body's quality is inadequate, no matter how well you train in martial arts, it's futile."

Hearing his father say this, Lin Su nodded slightly, inwardly sighing.

Indeed, he had overlooked this point. Sёarᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"If such a situation really occurred, what would be the solution?" Lin Su couldn't help but ask further.

"Of course, there's a way!" Lin's father chewed on the lamb spine, chuckled, and said, "Quite simple, really." Experience tales with empire

"Let him practice martial paths and enhance his physical condition to the point where it's sufficient to perform martial arts, isn't that right?"
