Chapter 1114 The second generation of clowns no longer dare to be called clowns
In the first two days, Starfire was fortunate enough to receive one-on-one careful guidance from Harley. After that, like everyone else, she reported to the manor on time at four o'clock every afternoon (after school at Gotham High School), and then entered the gravity room to conduct her own research.
train.
Harley is not idle either. She will walk back and forth outside the training room, observing their every movement and physical condition, and correcting mistakes or improving their training methods in time.
Xinghuo discovered that she really didn't pay much attention to herself, and her cultivation relied entirely on her own awareness.
The "third senior sister" named Cassandra was the most valued, followed by Barbara, and then Bruce and his son. She and Rachel were not treated as well as five-year-old Helena.
However, she also saw that Rachel was a wizard and was born with a strong body. She trained more on skills than strength.
After observing for another two days, Xinghuo gradually found the way to the "Martial Arts Codex".
"Although we all have different exercise methods, we are all in the gravity room, and the goals of exercise are also similar. Repeat the process of rapidly consuming physical energy and replenishing physical energy." During the break, she said to Dick.
Well, although she met Barbara first, after joining the "Martial Arts Rocket Class", the person she was closest to...or rather liked to be close to the most was "Eldest Young Master" Dick.
Dick is clean-looking, well-spoken, and very good at pleasing girls.
When getting along with him, Xinghuo really felt the innocence and happiness that only a 16-year-old girl could have, and this feeling was something she had never experienced in her life. Even though she was "young", at that time, the country was ruined and the family was destroyed, and she was not qualified.
To pursue simplicity.
"This is the "Martial Arts Code", which focuses on enhancing physical fitness. That is what Master Harley said, 'Martial arts is the process of tapping energy in the body.'"
Dick usually has a playful and carefree face, but when he mentioned "Master Harley", his face showed rare seriousness and respect.
Before joining the training class, he would not show respect when facing Harley.
To paraphrase a line from the movie "The Master": He has evil intentions now, but as long as he learns boxing from me, he will respect me like a god.
The ignorant are fearless.
Only when you know and understand can you know how to be in awe.
"I know the purpose of the 'Secret Book', but what I'm focusing on now is its training idea - to train the human body until it is exhausted, and then digest food and replenish energy." Xinghuo said.
Dick wondered: "What's wrong with this idea? Long-distance runners exercise themselves through running, and basketball players improve themselves through a series of training such as dribbling, shooting, and dribbling."
Our goal is to improve our physical fitness, and of course we have to train our bodies to the limit.”
"There is no problem with this method, but as you said, our training is like a long-distance runner practicing running. It is too simple and not enough to be a 'martial god'." Xinghuo said.
"The idea of "The Secret of Martial Arts" is very simple, but the operation is extremely difficult.
Not to mention unlimited training and unlimited improvement, only your "Xinghuo Fist".
If you only practice this set of boxing, you will exercise every part of your body, and your speed, strength, flexibility, and defense will be improved in all aspects.
An exercise method to make you a hexagon warrior.
What about ordinary people?
Even if he is just a basketball player, he still needs to practice arm strength, waist and abdominal core, and jumping legs... There are many types, and they often conflict with each other.
I practiced strength, but my shooting was inaccurate.
Increased weight, speed and flexibility.
"Xinghuo Fist" does not have these side effects at all. It is just a set of actions, simple and efficient.
The point is, the average athlete exercises for several hours before running out of energy.
The efficiency is too low.
What about us? A set of movements can last up to ten minutes.
Exercising for four hours a day consumes as many calories as a diligent athlete training hard for a month."
"This kind of efficiency can be called a martial arts myth! When I came into contact with the "Martial Arts Codex", I felt like I had entered another world. The reason why you don't feel deeply is because you are a superpower and it is too easy to get power.
Any martial artist who has practiced martial arts will be in awe of Master Harley like a god after understanding the "Martial Arts Code"."
"She is really a warrior goddess." Dick said with emotion.
Xinghuo said: "I don't question the power of the "Martial Arts Codex", but it's just not the same as I imagined."
"Then what does the 'Martial Arts Code' look like in your mind?" Dick asked curiously.
Xinghuo recalled the "kung fu movies" he had seen these days and said: "Sitting cross-legged and meditating, with five hearts raised to the sky, comprehending the world, clothes fluttering, clean and tidy, and then power surged out of the body, and the body crackled and exploded, thus transcending the world and becoming a saint.
Knock down a mountain with a punch."
The corner of Dick's mouth twitched, "Did you watch the Chinese movie?"
"Of course you must understand the culture of Kung Fu before learning Kung Fu." Xinghuo said.
"I've seen it too, but it's not a kung fu movie, it's a fairy tale." Dick raised his chin to Bruce and Cassandra, who were still sweating profusely in the training room, and sighed: "You see, in our training class, we work the hardest.
They are the two of them.
Barbara practices for half an hour and takes a break for half an hour. Jason and I take a ten-minute break every hour.
With nutritious meals to replenish physical strength, physical fatigue disappears quickly, but the mind is tired.
They often work for four hours without stopping.
Because they are martial arts masters and have experienced real Kung Fu practice, which is much crueler than the movies.
Often you put in 10,000 points of sweat, but get nothing in return.
Now every effort is rewarded, so they cherish it very much and are very hungry for it.”
"Is there any stimulating agent added to the nutritious meal? Every time I eat it, I feel tired and relieved." Xinghuo asked curiously.
"That's a divine blessing." Dick shook his head and explained: "Our nutritious meals, whether meat, eggs, milk, or vegetables and fruits, all come from a high-energy fantasy world and are very nutritious.
However, it is difficult for ordinary people to digest and absorb it. Even if it is digested, it can only slowly replenish physical strength and cannot penetrate deep into cells to relieve fatigue from the root cause and nourish muscles and bones.
Divine blessing can ensure that we quickly digest nutritious meals into nutrients.
And those nutrients will flow to the parts of the body that need them most."
Harley did not lend her divine power to a few students, or even to her own pastor, Barbara.
The so-called divine blessing is actually a blessing of digestive defense expertise... a semi-finished divine spell - Harley is still researching it.
For powerful people like Diana and Neptune with 80+ attributes, the "thick-skinned power" will only slightly increase physical fitness such as strength and speed.
But for ordinary people, it can bring about a qualitative change in their physique.
This is a good thing, but it is not conducive to spiritual practice.
Harley's "Martial Arts Manual" is extremely complicated and difficult to operate, but the principle is extremely simple: break the physical limits through high-intensity exercise.
With Harley's magical power, it is difficult for them to push their bodies to their limits.
This is also the dilemma Harley is facing now.
Ordinary people who torture themselves will only destroy their bodies.
Harley has high defense and fast recovery, and can repair cell-level dark damage through her food defense specialty.
But now her defense is too high and her physical strength is too sufficient. It is difficult to even sweat. It is even more difficult to break through the limit of strength by squeezing her body to the limit.
In addition to not letting divine power slow down the students' growth, there is another reason why Harley cannot lend her divine power casually: letting Gaia maintain her status as a favored one would place too heavy a burden on her.
...
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the weekend. Xinghuo thought that the cram school training would become more intense.
After all, several classmates are on vacation.
The result was far beyond her expectation.
"There is no training on the weekend, so we can move around freely." Barbara said.
"Uh, why?"
"Weekends are originally rest time. Training every day will make people stupid. And we are all young, so there is no need to push ourselves too hard." Barbara was surprised by her surprised reaction.
Xinghuo wondered: "But on weekdays we exercise for four hours, from four in the afternoon to eight in the evening, pushing ourselves to the limit. Now we finally have a holiday and have time, but we don't exercise anymore..."
"You only exercise for four hours a day. How far is this limit? During the day, don't you often drive around the United States in a speed car?"
"Okay, what activities do you have on the weekend?" Xinghuo didn't want to work out hard on the weekend.
"Let's go to the mountain to ask everyone, or see what Sister Harley has planned." Barbara looked very expectant and excited, "Last time she took us to the Kingdom of Dreams.
Oh my God, Xinghuo, you will never imagine how fantastic and crazy that world is.
I also met Santa Claus, the real Santa Claus!
It’s a pity that it’s not Christmas. Even if we pull the sleigh deer’s antlers to prevent him from leaving and make him blow his beard and stare with anger, he still insists on not giving us a gift.”
...
"There are two things this weekend." Harry really had plans.
"First of all, I am going to the metropolis for interstellar diplomacy. If you are interested, you can come with me.
The second thing is that our family is almost out of nutritious meals and needs to go to Wonderland to restock. Ivy was summoned by Swamp Monster. Is there any one of you who is interested in helping out? "
"Me!" Barbara immediately raised her hand, "I have heard Mr. Hongfa and Mr. Rabbit talk about Wonderland countless times, and I have long wanted to see it."
As she spoke, she pulled Rachel next to her and said, "Come with me and help me open the portal."
Although she and Harry had visited the Elf Queen once, Rachel did not refuse the invitation from her companions.
"I want to go too." Helena stepped on her feet and raised her hands.
"Is it dangerous?" Selina looked at her daughter and asked worriedly.
"It's not the first time. You and Ivy have been there before, what's the danger?" Harley said disapprovingly.
Selena said: "Of course it's not dangerous to simply pick up goods at the farm, but I don't believe it. They would be so honest and not run around randomly. What if I go to the fairy market and get kidnapped?"
"Haha, it's a good thing to be kidnapped and trafficked. At least it can help them gain insights into how sinister people's hearts can be." Harley said with a smile.
After hearing what she said, Selina was no longer worried.
"I'm going to the Metropolis. Master's appearance will definitely attract many alien messengers. As a Top 100 Up Master, I can't miss this event." Cassandra said with a grin.
In the past, she would stay in the manor to practice hard even on weekends, but now that the master is leaving the manor, of course she will go wherever the master goes.
Harley nodded slightly, "This trip to the metropolis is just one aspect of Earth's foreign policy. There is another thing... You might as well go and see it."
"Where is Wonderland?" Starfire asked Dick in a low voice.
"A different world, which is the hometown of many fairy tale characters and fairies." Dick looked around and found the hedgehog sitting on the floor at the door, taking a nap. He pointed with his finger, "Mr. Red Hair comes from Wonderland."
"I want to go too. There are more chickens there than in the zoo. Let's go together." Xinghuo became excited.
Dick hesitated and said: "I still have something to do..."
"What can happen to you?"
"Recently, a particularly powerful super criminal named 'Laughing Scar' has appeared in Gotham. Do you know? I want to help Bateman find out his background."
Starfire shook her head.
Jason next to him explained enthusiastically: "It's the one who used the campus bus to rob a bank some time ago. He has two scars on his face, from his lips to the base of his ears. He's very scary and looks like a clown.
However, he calls himself ‘Laughing Scar’ and is determined not to let others call him ‘clown’.
Alas, after Penguin shifted more of his energy to real estate and politics, Gotham's underground forces ushered in a new round of reshuffle.
Although Laughing Scar is not famous, we found that he has his shadow behind several small and medium-sized gangs.
If Dick's subsequent investigation proves this, it means that he is likely to become the new hey road giant."
Then he blushed slightly and added: "Dick wants to investigate the case of Laughter Scar. I can accompany you to Wonderland."
Dick glanced at his "second brother" and said calmly: "You failed the cultural class again. I suggest Alfred hire a tutor for you, and you just stay at home and make up for your lessons."
Jason's expression was stiff and he stood blankly on the spot.
