"Exploding with shoulder power, that's pretty simple, right?"

"Yes, but it was all subconscious before, now I finally understand."

"Here, can you feel it? Engage your back muscles."

"I feel...we've arrived...right?"

"Abdominal muscles bulging and stretching?"

"Haha, don't touch my belly, oh, it tickles!"

Li Changzhou guided Li Qianxia step by step on how to deepen her control over her body and grasp the power within her.

Even Zhu Xiongjie's personal disciples probably don't receive such treatment.

It's not a matter of whether it's troublesome or not.

This is also a kind of selection, separating those who can grasp their own strength and those who cannot.

However, there is naturally no selection process between siblings.

Yang Qinglan was not there; he was studying the "Divine Fire Diagram".

The reason for separating classes is for testing purposes.

The Spring Emperor—no, Yaochi—said that everyone has a different degree of affinity with different visualizations, and they wanted to experiment with the speed of learning first.

"Once you master your body, you can unleash a relentless barrage of attacks, maintain your body's center of gravity at all times, generate power from every muscle and fascia, and deliver a fatal blow from every joint. You won't need to learn anything like inch punch, finger claw, crushing fist, or elbow strike; you'll be able to use them effortlessly."

"Hmm—brother, have you ever thought that maybe we should learn things like short-range power, finger claws, collapsing fists, and elbow strikes first, and then try to grasp the power in our bodies?"

“No!” Li Changzhou said confidently. “If I can learn it directly, why can’t you?”

"I—, um!"

"What's wrong?" Li Changzhou asked Li Qianxia, ​​who was making a big fuss.

Li Qianxia appears to be checking her identity card.

"Brother!" she exclaimed, "The Golden Branch and Jade Leaf skill has been triggered again! It shows that my Intelligence increased by 2 when I learned 'Whole Strength'!"

"The Golden Branch and Jade Leaf has this function? Because of me?" Li Changzhou pondered, "Why didn't I get any hints when learning the Thunderclap Diagram before?"

Li Qianxia thought for a moment, then suddenly punched her left palm with her right fist:

"I get it! It must be because you didn't have the thought, 'I want to share everything with my cutest, most beautiful sister,' back then!"

“‘The cutest’ and ‘the prettiest’ can be removed.” Li Changzhou drew a few circles in the air with his finger, making a deletion mark when correcting a grammatical error.

"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and teach me!"

"Good! I've remembered that, the core of the principle of 'whole-body strength'—"

"Um!"

The two of them stared at each other with stern faces, neither willing to give in.

"Four words—never let go! When facing an enemy, you must strike at their very core. No matter how many moves you make, if you can't break their core, you're out of options!"

"You really didn't teach me properly! You only told me such fundamental things after I asked!"

Li Changzhou pretended not to hear: "During the fight, we constantly use this force to drive our bodies to make various movements. The strongest part of an ordinary person is their legs, but the power of a single leg is limited. For us, we need to integrate the power of our whole body and release it, and that is 'whole force'."

Li Qianxia also became serious: "How exactly do we do it?"

"I came up with a plan when we were sparring just now," Li Changzhou said.

"Um."

"Stand properly, relax your hips, soften your body, and then use all your strength to push off the ground, concentrating all the ground's reaction force on the point where you need to exert force."

It was difficult, but Li Qianxia got it after trying twice.

"Can you feel it?" Li Changzhou said, "When you can concentrate your whole body's strength wherever you want without relying on the reaction force of pushing off the ground, then you've achieved 'whole-body strength'."

"I'll keep trying!"

With progress every moment, Li Qianxia immediately became engrossed, which in a sense was another kind of 'focus'.

In fact, everyone's intelligence will be improved to some extent when they enter a state of focus; it's just that focusing as a skill is easier to enter and the effect is more obvious.

Immersed in her studies, time flew by. By the time Li Qianxia could control her "whole force" anytime and anywhere by pushing off the ground, a whole morning had passed.

"Brother, I have a very serious question for you."

"explain."

"Am I," Li Qianxia gazed at the floating clouds, green leaves, and blue sky above, "a martial arts prodigy, one in a million?"

"......yes."

Li Changzhou didn't mention that he learned it in no time.

But he wasn't arrogant. He felt that he was just someone with a special talent in this area, like a math prodigy, an e-sports genius, or a gold medalist athlete—rare but not uncommon.

The two finished preparing lunch, just as Yang Qinglan emerged from the "forest path"—a tree trunk in a quiet and secluded environment.

A gentle breeze blew, dappled sunlight swept over her, and she held the "Divine Fire Diagram" in her hand, her expression thoughtful, like a fairy descending from Mount Gushe.

"Qinglan, how is she?" Li Qianxia asked.

"I might not be suitable." Yang Qinglan put away her thoughtful gaze.

"Didn't learn it?" Li Changzhou asked curiously.

“I have learned it,” Yang Qinglan said, “but when I was burned by flames, it did not stimulate my potential as much as the ‘Thunderclap Painting’.”

“I understand, I understand. Qinglan, you’re the kind of person who wouldn’t be worried even if your house were on fire. You might even be able to stand outside and find a good spot to watch the fire,” Li Qianxia said.

After saying that, she suddenly added, as if she suddenly remembered something: "Unless the bookstore catches fire."

“Even if the bookstore catches fire, she will stand inside and calmly burn to death along with the books,” Li Changzhou added further.

Even though it was two people teasing her, Yang Qinglan only glared at Li Changzhou.
