Ling Qingyu didn't know, Tang Ziyi had a strong reason, why she didn't allow Ling Qingyu to touch firearms during this week.
She wanted Ling Qingyu to gain confidence in hand-to-hand combat and train her physical body to great potential before immersing herself in the guns.
Fortunately, Ling Qingyu could keep up with Tang Ziyi's anticipation or even surpass the original pacing according to her plan.
She feared once Ling Qingyu got hold of a gun, she would no longer practice martial arts, the essence of enhancing the capability of human physique.
After all, one could easily learn how to shoot than being a practitioner for a long time to defend themselves. Waiting till Ling Qingyu trained by herself every morning as a habit without her intervention as if imprinted to the soul, Tang Ziyi decided to let her touch what Ling Qingyu always wanted.
At least, Ling Qingyu was dead serious in her practice. Tang Ziyi never saw her slacking off despite complaints and whining against her urge as bullying.
Well, Tang Ziyi admitted, she loved bullying this little one. After all, in front of Ling Qingyu's IQ and strategy, Tang Ziyi believed the moment when she racked this girl with fists wouldn't be long before Ling Qingyu could fight head-on with her.
Even Xiao Yue, who was improving daily, couldn't compare with Ling Qingyu's improvement rate. Tang Ziyi figured Ling Qingyu was a rare seed, probably suited to following her footsteps. Find exclusive stories on M V L
Moving away her thought, Tang Ziyi fixed Ling Qingyu's mistakes, in her previous handling of the pistol. "Don't grab the handle like you're grabbing a stick. Although I know your wrists' strength is very strong, the posture is too unsightly. Spread your feet a little bit more. That's it. You don't need to drop your head to aim, raise your hands so that your eyes align with the aim point.
Relax your shoulders and you don't need to raise them."
Tang Ziyi helplessly patted Ling Qingyu's shoulder muscle. In fact, Ling Qingyu's movements weren't wrong but they were already outdated. In the old days, her posture was what many sought for when firing a gun.
"Why don't I put a holographic sight on the pistol, then I won't be in trouble?" Ling Qingyu complained. "Ouch!"
Tang Ziyi slapped the back of her head. "First familiarize yourself with the fundamentals before going advance. You must learn to walk before you run. Alright, fire 10 rounds, slowly. I say slow mean really slow. Remember I'll burst your ass if you do what you do previously."
Ling Qingyu only saw several muzzle flashes and multiple bangs before Tang Ziyi slid out the magazine and inserted the new one. The old was kept behind, then Tang Ziyi holstered back the Glock.
One fluid move without any awkwardness and stylish display, not even losing the aggressiveness. Well, that wasn't the point. Tang Ziyi emptied the magazine within a few seconds.
No, less than 1.5 seconds in her opinion. 15 bullets in a go within a few seconds?! Ling Qingyu's mouth widened. Tang Ziyi, smirking inside took note of Ling Qingyu's reaction, pressed the button so that the machine brought back the paper target.
Upon closer inspection, Ling Qingyu went speechless. Comparing the two papers, Ling Qingyu's original pride was crushed.
All of Tang Ziyi's shots were inside the center ring in contrast to her scattered nine-ring. So, achieving nine-rings was still terrible, Ling Qingyu became confused.
If other shooters heard Ling Qingyu's words, everyone might commit suicide in depression. For the first-timer to attain multiple nine-rings consecutively, they really had no words except to beat the shit out of her.
"How on earth did you shoot this fast?" Ling Qingyu asked. "I feel like it's quicker than premature ejaculation."
Tang Ziyi was about to answer her when she heard the latter part; her face darkened with Ling Qingyu's wording choice. She almost slammed this girl to the ground.
Heaving a long sigh, Tang Ziyi replied. "Follow my instructions carefully. Don't try anything new or innovative till I allow you. It wouldn't be long before you reach my level, understood?"
"Understood." Ling Qingyu bobbed her head up and down. Without a strong foundation and understanding, testing out new stuff might destroy her skill instead. Obeying Tang Ziyi's instructions without any questions till she became the expert in testing new ones was the way to go.
This time, Ling Qingyu followed Tang Ziyi's every word without complaints or hesitation. There was no longer haste in Ling Qingyu's gesture. Tang Ziyi's strength had convinced Ling Qingyu.
Seeing this outcome, Tang Ziyi was relieved and lamented her correct choice to step on Ling Qingyu's arrogance first before teaching further.
Afterward, Ling Qingyu adapted to Tang Ziyi's requirements, fulfilling without making any serious mistakes. The minor mishaps were quickly noticed and corrected by Tang Ziyi, who smiled in satisfaction seeing Ling Qingyu perfectly responding to her words.
