Chapter 39 - 34: Introduction

```

"I will hold a small class for you for three days. During these three days, you can ask me anything you don't understand, but I'll only answer the same question once. After three days, whether you've mastered the Stance Skill or not, you will join the main class to practice together until you master the skill..."

Smith's expression was very indifferent, causing a tight feeling in everyone's hearts. A few, with less combative talents, even felt a bit regretful. They didn't have free spots but had exchanged half-priced loans for the opportunity.

They had wanted to take a chance but it seemed not so simple now.

"It's not too late to regret it now. Does anyone want to quit?"

Whoosh~ Whoosh~

Three students immediately raised their hands, and after a moment a fourth person did too. They were all students without combat talents!

Originally there were nine people after two more were added, but now the number had nearly halved.

"Good, you may leave now. It's wise to recognize the situation."

Smith didn't mock them; being able to cut losses in time was commendable. He continued to the remaining five,

"I know you all probably have combat talents, and there's one with a decent talent, but whether you can integrate that depends on yourselves. We'll start directly today. Perform the sequence I showed earlier, replicate as much as you can..."

As his words ended, the five students spaced themselves apart, standing on the coal slag practice ground, recalling the previous movements.

But how could the average person memorize an entire set of Fist Techniques that took fifteen minutes to perform? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Even the calisthenics, with their simple repeated movements, are difficult to remember completely after one explanation!

Without breaking it down into individual movements, it was a recipe for failure.

Some even fell down on the spot due to the strange, unnatural postures that went against the normal use of human muscles.

This didn't surprise Smith; he watched with a smile.

However, his expression soon turned serious as he stared at Tao Yu and frowned.

Although Tao Yu didn't replicate it perfectly, relying on his Dynamic Vision to memorize every movement, combined with his slightly above-human physical condition, and the Grade Level 2 of Basic Combat - Modified, he was the only one in the place who looked competent.

Not to mention how well he performed, he managed to flow through the sequence smoothly. By the time the other students had stopped, Tao Yu had completed the entire set with some bumps along the way, even finishing properly with a closing stance.

Tao Yu, who could sense Qi-Blood due to the Deification Breathing Technique, unexpectedly found that the sequence could provide ancillary benefits.

Though it wasn't perfect, he already felt a tingling sensation, his entire body soaked in sweat.

Because of [One Proof Forever Proof], his body must have experienced a slight improvement. It wasn't much, but it filled Tao Yu with excitement.

This was something that could complement the Breathing Technique.

"What is your talent?"

Smith looked at Tao Yu, who had just finished, with a complex gaze.

"Grade A Dynamic Vision."

Since it was something to be shown off, Tao Yu naturally wouldn't hide it.

"Grade A?"

Tao Yu nodded, that's all he needed!

His various Deification skills would significantly increase his physical or mental consumption. Relying on the recovery effect of [One Proof Forever Proof] to eat heartily provided the best value for supplementation.

Tao Yu had tried using a dozen or so points of Yuan Force to replenish his energy, and indeed, the speed was swift. Both recovery and healing were much faster than eating, but the cost-effectiveness of this kind of consumption was extremely low.

With his current physical condition, just recovering physical strength might cost several hundred points, and the stronger the physique, the greater the expenditure on recovery, not to mention healing. It was only for emergencies and definitely not sustainable for regular use.

So for Tao Yu, learning this digestion skill was even a higher priority than the dojo's secret advanced breathing techniques.

But all these prerequisites required him to master the fist techniques first!

Tao Yu took a deep breath and then gave Smith a formal bow,

"Please guide me, senior brother."

"Alright, let's save time. You all come and watch. I will explain while guiding Tao Yu junior brother. Pay attention, and I don't want to see the same mistakes repeated."

Having said that, Smith signaled Tao Yu to start, effectively using Tao Yu as a teaching example for everyone.

"Although it looks standard, there are still many areas that are not quite right. This is stance training, not fighting, so you should not even consider speed and power. The purpose is to train each muscle group, with some movements even requiring you to slow down deliberately..."

While speaking, Smith continuously patted various parts of Tao Yu's body to correct minor flaws.

Every so often, the sound of cracking joints could be heard, and Tao Yu could also feel a burning sensation all over.

But with the cooperation of Qi-Blood, the effect this time was at least several times better than the first set!

After the second set, Tao Yu was very tired, and his clothes were completely soaked through, but he didn't rest.

He was not afraid of training his body to exhaustion!

The right thing to do was to keep up the momentum while he was feeling motivated!

"Junior brother, you should rest for a bit, don't rush for success. Although you have good physical quality, you don't have a physical talent after all."

Smith frowned slightly when he heard Tao Yu was going to continue.

It seemed like he had only done two sets, but the load on the body was not light!

"Senior brother, I know my own limits. I ate a lot of special herbs in the Abyss, and the effects might not all have been digested yet, my whole body feels warm."

Tao Yu casually revealed information about his consumption of Blood Orchid yet again.

This made Smith's face show a trace of shock and suspicion. What kind of herbs were those? He remembered that Tao Yu had collected a lot of red flowers; were those items that significant?

The thought made Smith ponder his own intentions.

"Alright, as long as you know your limits, do the last set, then take a rest. The dojo sells specialized Blood-activating Ointment for 20 Yuan Force a jar, that's an in-house price."

After saying this, Smith once again signaled Tao Yu to start, feeling somewhat respectful of his determination.

Never mind if his body could handle it, just starting out and continuing consecutively like that, the soreness was particularly unpleasant!

And Tao Yu's persistence was equally rewarded.

Since he had already clearly remembered the movements and was getting into the rhythm, after the third time with Smith's close corrections, he felt a faint sense of enlightenment in his heart.

Then the skill light sphere for the Myriad Flow Stance Skill lv1 appeared, marking the skill as learned!
