For this reason, little Horio felt that it was no big deal for the guest Du Yuqi to stay here for ten days or half a month, so he reprimanded his disciples and strictly forbade them to make noise nearby. He observed for a while and then went about his own business.
Unexpectedly, after a while, little Horio was instructing a disciple to practice swordsmanship in the quiet room next door, when he suddenly heard a "dong dong dong" sound coming from the floor outside, as if several people were running. Little Horio immediately frowned. He usually taught his disciples to remain calm and stay calm no matter what happened. He was about to scold immediately, but unexpectedly, the partition door was roughly opened with a "crash".
Several disciples gasped in surprise and said:
"Master, Master, outside, outside..."
Little Horio immediately frowned and scolded:
"What are you doing? Why are you so startled? Where are the things I usually teach you?"
A disciple said urgently:
"Just now, the person who had been sitting there, that person...ah, I can't explain it either, can you go and see for yourself, Master?"
Little Horio was shocked. He still valued this God of Wealth very much, because he just thought about it and felt that he should be able to give Du Yuqi, a beginner, some advice on the sword technique of the three-section slash. Wouldn't it be better if he could make another deal? The God of Wealth couldn't get into trouble again at this time!
When he hurried to the hall, he saw that the "financial sponsor" had already stood up, holding the wooden sword with both hands, swinging it in the air a few times, and then suddenly cut out an arc, and then the arc shone in the air with a brilliant light like a crescent moon! !
The dummy that was cut was a bit special. It was a type close to a puppet. It could defend, parry, dodge and other actions during sparring. It was driven by crystal blocks and was very expensive.
Although it had made timely defensive moves, and its shell was specially made of cowhide, leather, and vines soaked in oil, making it very tough, it still made a terrible "tearing" sound all of a sudden, and was torn apart alive, then flew out with a crash, hitting the ring next to it, making a loud "bang" sound!
Although Du Yuqi himself was unable to stop and fell out in the end, and even knocked over a cup of coffee, which was very embarrassing, no one could laugh. Everyone was stunned, because Du Yuqi's Moonlight Slash really took shape, and the completion degree reached an astonishing level of at least 50%! !
"Where did this pervert come from?!"
"This bastard must have learned this before and is pretending to be cool here on purpose!"
"Ahhh! There must be something wrong with my eyes!"
“…”
These thoughts emerged in everyone's mind.
At this time, Du Yuqi slowly got up from the ground, and waved the weapon in his hand twice with great interest. Suddenly, he saw little Horio standing next to him, and immediately smiled apologetically:
"I'm so sorry, Gym Master, for messing up your place. I'll compensate for any losses. Oh, and I encountered some problems when practicing Moonlight Slash just now, and I still need your guidance."
Little Horio finally woke up from his dream and nodded:
"Oh, you say, you say, I don't dare to take the responsibility of giving you advice."
Two hours later, Du Yuqi walked out of here with satisfaction, and then went to the next place with the address given by little Horio. In this short period of time, he had already mastered the Moonlight Slash, the Thrust, and even the Three-Section Slash taught by little Horio later in the basic swordsmanship, and the completion rate was over 70%.
You know, if the completion rate is over 70%, it means that you have basically mastered the difficulties and key points of this swordsmanship. It is equivalent to the frame of a house has been built, the basic structure is no problem, and the next step is just to practice more.
Little Horio and the disciples in the dojo were all stunned, not knowing what to say as they watched Du Yuqi leave.
…
One day later.
Du Yuqi had already laid down in the "Horseshoe" Inn in Huttonmar, pressing his swollen temples. The soft big bed slowly wore away his fatigue. Du Yuqi closed his eyes and felt countless swords flying around in his mind. He tried his best to put aside these distracting thoughts but it was impossible.
At this moment, he also wondered if his steps were too big, and if they were too big, he would tear his balls...
In just over a day, Du Yuqi had already learned most of the basic sword techniques, and simply ignored the advice of others to "choose one or two techniques to concentrate on practicing."
This couldn't be blamed on Du Yuqi's greed, but he found that his speed of practicing swordsmanship was far beyond others. Take Moonlight Slash for example, he practiced for an hour and almost caught up with others who practiced for a year! So the rules that naturally applied to others could not be applied to himself.
At this time, among the seventeen basic sword techniques, Du Yuqi has basically mastered more than half of them, and has almost achieved dominance in all areas!
First, each swordsman needs to choose a weapon that he is good at to master. These four weapons are: short sword, long sword, great sword, blunt weapon, plus the most basic uppercut, which are the five primary sword techniques. (Mastering the lightsaber is the second-level sword technique, which is the sword soul specialization)
The following are the elementary sword techniques ranked according to the difficulty of practice:
"Ghost Slash, Silver Light Falling Blade, Continuous Thrust, Sword Soul Kazan, Block, Aerial Slash, Mountain Collapse, Wave Slash, Three-Section Slash, Cross Slash, Moonlight Slash, Earth-Splitting Wave Sword."
In the previous battle, Du Yuqi discovered that he seemed to have a special talent for swords and knives. This was verified when he visited the swordplay halls. It seemed that he had achieved the basic expertise in these four types of weapons without any study. He even mastered the second-level lightsaber swordplay without a teacher.
Among the next thirteen basic sword techniques, Kazan of Sword Soul and Ghost Slash both require the summoning of ghosts and gods, and therefore are limited to Ghost Swordsmen for practice. Of the remaining eleven sword techniques, only the Aerial Continuous Slashes has not been mastered by Du Yuqi, and he has learned the rest. Several of them can already be used in actual combat, while a few still need further practice.
