"Do a fan-shaped movement, exert force in the front section, and end at the left shoulder."
In the afternoon, he took a long stick to show her how to break down the movements, and then asked her to practice over and over again.
"The movements must be standardized!" He was supervising her very seriously.
On the third day, repeat.
After going through this boring cycle for a week, Kalki suggested that they could fight again.
"Master, I accept it!" She was still so full of energy that she just walked up with the stick.
Suddenly, she felt that she was much more comfortable than the first time she fought with him. She could completely defend Kalki's attack, unlike at the beginning where she was helpless.
They attacked each other back and forth many times.
"Very good!" He encouraged her loudly, and then quickly stepped aside to let go of her blow with the straight stick. Xuanji was very talented in martial arts, and her movements were free and fast, as fast as a teenager.
"Footsteps." Kalki swung his stick from below to attack her side, and Xuanji immediately jumped to dodge.
After blocking it with the stick in her hand, she turned around and used a swordsmanship move to counter Kalki's forward knee.
But he immediately dodged, moved quickly, and lightly hit her shoulder with the stick. This was the flaw she exposed when she leaned forward to attack.
This time he didn't hit her hard, which made her look at him in surprise.
The two people greeted each other, "I accept it."
"It turns out you can be less harsh!" She complained while panting.
"Oh! Being beaten is the beginning of martial arts. The pain of your skin and flesh will be engraved in your heart." He actually smiled.
She stuck out her tongue at him, showing her disdain for his scheming.
He had never been in contact with girls, and was completely different from the group of young knights who practiced seriously. Xuanji's cuteness made him a little embarrassed, and he lowered his head with a smile, not wanting to look at her.
After the exercise, she could be described as having bright eyes and good eyesight. She was panting slightly. But Kalki's breath was steady, he raised his head and smiled, with the look of a satisfied master.
"What is this?" she asked.
"Ointment. When I was a child, my master and my companions often applied it to me."
"What? I basically don't use such ancient things. I will take a shower later. There is a huge biowave therapy device in the bathroom. After I lay down in it for 5 minutes, the cells in my body were activated and renewed, and the pain and bruises were eliminated.
The youth is gone and I feel relaxed..."
"Stretch out your hand," he ordered her.
"Okay..." She reluctantly stretched out her hand, thinking: This is a waste of time, no matter how good the ointment is, it is not as good as modern treatment methods.
He dipped a little ointment into his hand and applied it to her scarred hands. She looked at the way he lowered his head seriously and suddenly felt a little moved.
"Samurai need emotional communication. We have to trust each other with our lives on the battlefield." He said to her in a calm tone, "This is something that the treatment machine cannot give you."
Although his hands are strong and strong, they are actually very warm and soft. This delicate feeling is not even like that of a man.
"Can we trust each other with our lives one day?" she asked somewhat innocently.
"You have to practice diligently." He told him seriously, "You can't make progress without practicing martial arts for a day. I won't be here for long."
He avoided her questions and answered incorrectly.
She was suddenly very, very sad. She wanted to cry, but she didn't want to cry in front of him. Master Maurice would comfort her when she got home.
What kind of person is Kalki? Sometimes he is a lover, sometimes he is a heartless person. These two feelings always appear alternately.
Due to restlessness, Xuanji woke up in her bed. It was just past three in the morning. The night view outside the window was brilliant, and a figure appeared on the floating curtain... Alert, she quickly got up to check. At this time, there was only one person.
……
"Kalki?" She put on thick clothes and walked onto the balcony. There was a huge temperature difference between day and night on the planet Gaia, and it was very cold at night. Even though she was dressed, she still felt chilly.
Wearing only thin clothes, he held one hand on the edge of the balcony. His tall and tall figure looked tall and tall. Manxing City was so brightly lit, many aircraft were still shuttled in the air, and countless colorful private hover cars were speeding through the pipes.
Lines of oil paint flow. Mangxing City is a city that never sleeps, and the people of Gaia live a colorful nightlife.
"This is 'karma'..." Kalki murmured to himself. He finally witnessed with his own eyes the reason why the Gaians were mining everywhere in the universe - in order to obtain boundless energy and satisfy their boundless desires, they would not hesitate to destroy
The balance of energy and order in the universe.
"This is human life." Xuanji stood beside him, looking at the scenery that was familiar to her. "I grew up in Mangxing City, and the night scenes I saw have always been so brilliant and magnificent... This is what Mangxing City is all about.
The vitality of Star City lies in it. If this kind of life is a kind of 'karma', then what kind of life is not a kind of 'karma'?"
Kalki was silent. These are really two very different worlds. In Plato, he abided by the virtues of simplicity and hard work in agricultural society. He went to bed before eight o'clock and got up on time for training at six o'clock. However, the citizens of Star City were having fun and enjoying themselves day and night.
.
The way he looked into the distance was very serious, even a little melancholy. He was originally worried about his future, but what he saw now made him even more worried.
"Kalki, sometimes human misfortune and pain are caused by one group of people trying to correct another group of people's thoughts and lifestyles." She wanted to persuade him to tolerate the way Star City existed. "Platonic people also need to consume the resources of the universe, not
?"
"Plato's planet can be completely self-sufficient in life energy, but we cannot dismantle the huge army. Once we put down our swords first, the Gaians will wipe us out as cultists. The original 80 million martyrs
You don’t know the story, it’s the Gaians who were the first to attack our ancestors.” Kalki replied.
"I just have an outsider's opinion. Maybe we don't really understand each other... Please don't deny the source of human selfless behavior..."
"So you are an idealist." She sighed, "There are no idealists in Mangxing City, not a single one. If a person talks about ideals and doctrines, then he must be lying, he is talking about business..."<
/p>
She thought that she had also been ridiculed for being an idealist, and she could not bear to dump these ridicules on Kalki.
"This city is too big, too crowded, too philistine, too realistic, too mercenary..." Xuanji looked helpless, "I am also forced to live in a Gaian state, how can I pull it off?
Where is your hair when it leaves the earth?"
"No, you still have the soul of a Platonic person..." He could not say more, worried that if he said too much, he would conflict with her again.
Kalki continued to look at the bustling lights of this cosmic city in silence. His profile was extremely handsome, and the high bridge of his nose and the lines of his lips had a sculpture-like beauty. The cool breeze blew his blond hair, which grew very fast.
, many times faster than the growth rate of ordinary people’s hair.
"Your heart is too noble..." Xuanji looked at him with fascination unconsciously.
He lowered his head slightly and noticed the tenderness in her eyes.
"It's too cold on the balcony, go to bed quickly!" His commanding tone came back.
Before Xuanji finished speaking, she immediately turned around and went back to the room, leaving him behind: Huh! Damn Kalki, he always sounds like he is lecturing a soldier.
His temperament was alternately hot and cold, gentle and icy, which really pissed her off.
She is really a proud female aristocrat of the Blue Dragon, Kalki thought as he looked at her displeased back. She has a gentle and lovely temperament on the outside, but is quite aloof on the inside.
In his heart, Xuanji is still a simple girl at heart, simpler than many Gaians. She still retains the virtues of Plato. She is so simple that she is willing to believe in living together and eating with a man who is nearly thirty years old.
Living together, the two of them had a relationship like good buddies, and could confide in each other like brothers. But he had to always remind himself to keep a distance from her, lest the uncontrollable passion swallow up his reason. She didn't know that in the first
After seeing her once, he always kept the memory of her in his heart.
Finally, she can proceed to the long sword field that she is good at!
At first, Kalki was only allowed to use wooden swords. They wore martial arts training uniforms and stood about three meters apart.
It's still the same, greeting each other first. Xuanji, who has a shiny black ponytail, adopts the starting point of Japanese Kendo style, the martial arts of the Azure Dragon Knight is a mixture of Chinese and Japanese martial arts, and Kalki uses his hands on the waist and hips,
With the tip of the sword pointing upward, the martial arts of the White Tiger Knight were derived from the German long sword in the Middle Ages.
At first, they cautiously started to move around and tested each other's moves. Finally, Xuanji took the initiative to attack. She felt that after Kalki's devil training, her fighting condition was much better. This time, her pace was extremely stable and she could attack extremely fiercely.
Attack and at the same time stabilize the defense.
"Wow! Masters fighting against each other!"
The young soldiers of Gaia who were using other venues all lifted the transparent covers of their airtight practice rooms and walked towards their transparent practice rooms.
They attacked each other back and forth as if dancing, attracting many other practitioners to watch.
The tacit understanding of meeting an opponent when they met for the first time came back. Only today did he understand that her flowing and extremely agile attacks turned out to be from the Eastern swordsmanship of the Green Dragon Knight. Xuanji's sword swing was extremely fast, so fast that he could not see clearly.
After blocking Kalki's blow, he turned around and fought back. The knights of the four major tribes in Plato rarely had the opportunity to compete with each other, and Kalki often only trained with knights of the same clan.
"Okay, young man." After another round, they each took a few steps back and continued to confront each other with swords. Kalki actually praised her softly.
"I will defeat you one day." Although Xuanji is a girl, she always reveals her aggressive eyes like a dragon knight. She has a soul that will never admit defeat. In this regard, she is even better than many
Gaia boys of the same age are stronger.
Kalki stared at his opponent very seriously. As long as he was in the battle, no matter who the opponent was, he would fight selflessly and never let up. He was observing every move of his opponent, the most subtle expressions and muscle movements, just like a
The only hunting tiger was observing its prey: Xuanji was indeed proficient in swordsmanship, but her physical strength was exhausted too quickly. He saw her panting slightly and knew that the fight would be over in the next round.
He took advantage of her eagerness to win and deliberately exposed a simple flaw. Naturally, she couldn't help but be happy, and she slashed wildly. Kalki kept retreating quickly to avoid her sword edge. He quickly feinted left and right, and she could only
She could continue to attack at his pace. After a few moves, Kalki, who had almost retreated to the baseline, suddenly swung the wooden sword back, and then slashed at her front and neck with all his strength.
"Strike!" he yelled.
Xuanji had quick eyes and quick hands, so she immediately blocked her with a wooden sword in front of her. As a result, she used too much force in an instant. When the two swords collided, her wooden sword was broken instantly. Wood chips flew everywhere. The force was so strong that she lost her center of gravity and fell backwards. At the moment she fell, she recalled the first time she was knocked down by him at the base. It was this kind of violent power-the armor would amplify the power thousands of times. Although the armor she wore also had protective capabilities, due to the
She was thrown onto a pillar, instantly breaking several of her ribs.
"Xuanji, are you okay?" He immediately came over to ask her.
The pain on the back of her head was so severe that her eyes were filled with stars, and she could only lie on the ground incapacitated for the time being.
"Can I please? Please be more sincere to people. You have a sweet mouth, but you can be really ruthless!"
Kalki's face came into view upside down in front of her, and she lay looking at his face. This was the visual effect.
His face was so deceptive, so upright and majestic, and his deep blue eyes revealed his scheming mind. He was using the same tricks to remind her of the first time she was almost killed by him, so as to give her a blow.<
/p>
"You are really a sadist, and a sadist who is proficient in combat psychology!" She couldn't help cursing, it hurt so much, oh my god... She felt like a lump was swelling on the back of her head.<
/p>
"I will definitely defeat you." She said to him seriously, but the pain and shame made her heart settle.
He smiled lightly.
I hit her hard at the beginning of every training and knock her down directly, just to inspire her determination to practice hard. Good warriors are proud.
Kalki stretched out his hand to pull her up. He could always switch between kindness and severity, just like his kindness and cold-bloodedness.
"You need to improve your breathing methods." He suggested to her, "Good warriors have trained their breathing, so that you can fight for a long time without feeling tired."
"I teach you a special breathing adjustment method of Plato's Knights, called 'Brojan'. You have to learn to breathe from the abdomen when fighting... This way..." He gestured to her, "This is what you practice every day.
You can practice the Zama Step at the same time, killing two birds with one stone. If you can accurately master the 'Brojie', your martial arts can be improved to a higher level."
"Oh, okay..." Xuanji followed him and started practicing, thinking that Kalki was really an extremely serious person. When he focused selflessly on what he was doing, he could be completely distracted.
He gave her very serious instructions on how to adjust her breathing using the Broccoli and taught her the rhythm and rhythm of abdominal breathing.
"Basics are everything, you must strengthen the practice of basic movements." He emphasized to her.
Xuanji looked at Kalki's bright blue eyes. His title of "First Samurai" was enviable. She always felt that he was a born warrior, but after knowing him for a long time, she realized that his extraordinary martial arts skills were really solid.
After practicing in the field, he never even knew what laziness was, so he was so devoted.
"Try it again!" He encouraged her enthusiastically, "If you feel that you can't do it once and you haven't mastered it, just practice it again and keep doing it until you master it completely."
She looked at him with some fascination. He had a special aura about him, so fresh and natural, yet arrogant...
