(I took care of the kids, so I delayed, I’m really sorry)
"There are still eighteen days left, it's time to go to Jianwu Tower."
Carrying a ceremonial sword and wearing an off-white sword robe, Chen Zongtang went to Jianwu Tower with a full meal.
In fact, the Jianwu Pavilion of Qiyao Wuyuan was modeled after the Four Academy Palaces.
The Jianwu Building of Zhenjian Academy has five floors. From the appearance, it looks like a thick sword standing on the ground, standing firm despite the wind and rain.
Under the weight of the vicissitudes of time, it exudes a kind of sharp edge that only a sword can have, permeating the surroundings. When people come here, they can't help but become solemn and put away all playful mentality.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Zong withdrew his gaze, stepped forward again, and stepped into the Jianwu Tower.
The manager of Jianwu Tower is also a formal disciple of Zhenjian Academy, just like He Tielin.
"This senior brother, my name is Chen Zong. I am a new official disciple. I have come here to choose my skills and sword skills." Chen Zong said to the senior brother who manages the Jianwu Tower.
"Third floor, tell me your name after you choose it." This senior brother was reading a book. When he heard Chen Zong's words, he said without raising his head, his tone was cold, which was in sharp contrast to He Tielin's enthusiasm.
Chen Zong didn't feel anything special. There were thousands of different kinds of people.
The first floor of Jianwu Building is very large, with more than twenty large bookshelves. Each bookshelf is filled with books. At a glance, it is estimated that there are thousands of books, all of which are miscellaneous books.
The second level contains human-level skills and martial arts, and there are many of them. It is roughly estimated that there are more than a thousand.
The third level is the earth-level low-level exercises and the earth-level low-level martial arts.
As for the fourth floor, it is the prefecture-level middle grade, and the fifth floor is the prefecture-level high grade.
There are often very few top-quality Kung Fu martial arts. Chen Zong estimates that there are also some in Zhenjian Academy, but like Qiyao Martial Academy, only specific conditions are eligible to practice. In other words, Qiyao Martial Academy's model is to imitate
of the Four University Palaces.
He couldn't control that much. Chen Zong could only choose one low-level prefecture-level kungfu and one low-grade prefecture-level martial arts for free. If he wanted to choose a higher-level kung fu and martial arts, he had to exchange them with sword medals.
It is not easy to obtain sword honors, and Chen Zong doesn't even have one now.
Stepping onto the third floor, there were only a few people there.
Each of the formal disciples of the previous class has practiced Kung Fu and martial arts. The third level of Kung Fu and martial arts is no longer attractive to them. The goal is the fourth or even fifth level. The new formal disciples are in the previous level.
Within ten days, the selection has basically been made.
Chen Zongxian walked to the exercise classification area and scanned it roughly. There were a total of sixty-seven low-grade exercises at the prefecture level.
Name and introduction.
Rouyun Jin: There are two levels. The inner strength developed by this method is soft and erratic, silent and breathless.
Flowing water strength: There are two levels. The inner strength developed by this method is like the continuous gurgling water.
…
Zhengyuan Jin: There are two levels. The internal strength developed by this method is upright and powerful, and is 50% better than the internal strength developed by other low-grade exercises at the prefecture level.
Jing Yuan Jin: There are two levels. The internal energy developed by this method is very pure and is 50% better than the internal energy developed by other low-grade exercises at the prefecture level.
Chen Zong looked over carefully.
The internal energy produced by different exercises has different effects. This is even more obvious than the human-level exercises in the Qi and Blood Realm.
In the human-level skills at the level of Qi and Blood, although there are differences in the power of Qi and Blood, they are actually not that obvious. For example, the Chen family's Fierce Tiger Technique emphasizes that Qi and blood are like tigers. It is more of an inner feeling.
The external manifestation is not obvious. For example, the True Sword Heaven Ultimate Skill practiced by Chen Zong, excluding the increase in the power of the sword, and the Qi and Blood as Sword, only give himself a bit more edge.
However, the Earth-level exercises are different, and the internal energy cultivated is truly significantly different.
In many cases, what kind of inner strength skills are practiced will determine what kind of martial arts a warrior practices.
For example, there is a warrior who has practiced Rouyun Jin, a technique that tends to be gentle. The inner strength he has developed is also called Rouyun Inner Strength. This kind of inner strength is not suitable for use in those fierce martial arts.
Otherwise, not only will the power not be fully exerted, but it will be delayed, and may even cause damage to oneself.
Similarly, warriors who practice strong inner strength are not suitable for practicing those small martial arts.
After reading the names and introductions of more than sixty exercises, Chen Zong did not rush to make a choice. He sharpened his sword and chopped firewood. He first looked at the martial arts and then made plans.
At the level of Lianjin realm, human-level martial arts can no longer give full play to one's own strength. After all, human-level martial arts are driven by the power of Qi and blood, but Lianjin realm focuses on internal strength. These are two different powers.
, Undoubtedly, the inner energy will be much stronger. This is something Chen Zong, who has just refined a ray of original inner energy, fully understands.
You know, that ray of original inner strength is the essence of a body's physical strength combined with the power of pure Yang Qi and blood. How can it not be strong?
The number of low-level martial arts at the prefecture level is greater than the number of martial arts. Among them, swordsmanship is the main one, with over a hundred disciplines. There are also several fist techniques, palm techniques, leg techniques, and fingering techniques. In addition, there are body techniques and footwork.
"What martial arts should I choose?" Chen Zong started thinking as he stared at the many martial arts.
Now, the Tianguang Yunying Sword and the Flash Thunder Killing Sword still have very powerful lethality. It is not a problem to deal with the training state. After all, my physical strength is tyrannical and my pure Yang energy and blood are astonishing. I can use this explosive to display the lightning
The power of the Extreme Thunder Killing Sword is also astonishing, but it is probably very difficult to deal with the second level of Jinjin Realm.
After experiencing some things and coming from the edge of life and death, Chen Zong understood the cruelty of the path of a warrior. His enemies were not just warriors of the same level, but warriors who were higher in cultivation than him and more powerful than himself, might also become his enemies.
enemy.
Not to mention anything else, just one Black Demon Sect is like a dark cloud.
It is wrong to stand still, you must look forward.
"Let's choose a swordsmanship first." Chen Zong soon made a decision. Blindly dodging and being beaten passively was not his preference. Attacking was his first choice.
There are hundreds of sword techniques.
Xuan Guang Sword Technique: There are seven moves in total. The sword brings out the Xuan Guang, which can interfere with the line of sight. The first move and the fifth move are basic sword moves. Only after you have mastered them all can you practice the next two moves.
Raging Wind Sword Technique: There are eight moves in total. The sword comes out like a roaring wind, with great momentum. The first to sixth moves are basic sword moves. Only after you have mastered them all can you practice the last two moves.
…
From the introduction, there are obvious differences between earth-level swordsmanship and human-level swordsmanship.
Chen Zong has read all the hundreds of low-level swordsmanships at the prefecture level. Each of these swordsmanships has its own characteristics. Some focus on the interference of light and shadow on the line of sight, some focus on the intimidation of the sound, some focus on gentleness and continuity, and some focus on silence.
, some pay attention to being cunning and ruthless, some pay attention to overpowering others with strength, some pay attention to skills first, etc.
"Any sword technique is suitable for me to practice." Chen Zong secretly said that his foundation in sword technique is very solid, which is closely related to the long-term practice of the basic eighteen moves and the hard training of the four key points of sword technique, but there must be choices.
"The three-in-one martial arts realm of mind, eye, and hand can make my sword faster, and my own sword-drawing speed is also faster than that of a warrior of the same level."
"The most suitable swordsmanship for me is a swordsmanship that focuses on strength, combined with extraordinary sword speed, to achieve equal emphasis on strength and speed, so as to maximize the power."
"Or it's a swordsmanship that focuses on lethality. With the extraordinary sword speed, it can hit the target faster and cause damage."
Strength and lethality seem to be the same thing, but when distinguished carefully, they are two different things.
"Or it's a swordsmanship that focuses on speed, further increasing the sword speed to the extreme."
This is the best choice for you at the moment.
It would be best for a martial artist to master a few more martial arts, which means more means, more flexible combat, and less easy to be restrained, but time and energy are limited, and under the current situation, Chen Zong can only choose one.
"Sharp-edged swordsmanship, this is a swordsmanship that focuses on lethality."
"Sanyue Sword Technique, this is a sword technique that focuses on strength."
"Jie Feng Sword Technique, this is a sword technique that focuses on speed."
"How to choose?"
"Use your advantage to the fullest, it's you, Cutting Wind Sword Technique."
After making a decision, Chen Zong turned around and walked towards the exercise bookshelf. Now he had to choose an exercise.
After choosing the sword technique well, there are generally many choices of exercises. In the end, Chen Zong chose Zhengyuan Jin. His original inner strength is refined based on his strong physique and pure Yang Qi and blood. It is essentially more powerful than the inner strength of ordinary warriors.
There is a lot of purity. The practice of Jing Yuan Jin can purify the internal energy, but there is a limit.
Of course, this is Chen Zong's own guess, and it is probably accurate.
In a short period of time, you only have one chance to choose a technique. If you guess correctly, your Jing Yuan Jin will be of no help.
When he returned to the second floor, Chen Zong walked around casually and saw the third level of the Lone Star Sword Technique, called Lone Star Tiansha. From the introduction, it was said to be the ultimate in human-level swordsmanship.
It’s just that it’s no longer suitable for me.
"Zhengyuan Jin and Jie Feng Sword Technique, please wait first." The senior brother in charge of the Jianwu Building put down his book, said lightly, got up and walked inside.
In less than a minute, the other party had two more hand-written books in his hand. One was gray and white, with three powerful characters written on the cover - Zheng Yuan Jin, which gave Chen Zong a powerful feeling. The other was light cyan.
, it says "Jie Feng Sword Technique", the strokes are long and narrow, very smooth, implying an edge.
"The manuscript must not be circulated or damaged. It must be returned in its entirety within one month. Otherwise, the punishment will be severe depending on the circumstances, up to and including expulsion from the academy." He said smooth words in an indifferent tone. He must have said it many times.
Chen Zong nodded and put away the two books, turned around and left, walking quickly. He couldn't wait to go back and practice some, trying to master as much as possible before the Rising Star Competition came.
What needs to be cultivated first is Zhengyuan Jin. Only by refining more inner strength can we better practice Jiefeng Sword Technique. Otherwise, it will be empty and unable to exert its due power.
The mysteries of earth-level exercises are different from those of human-level exercises, but it does not hinder Chen Zong's understanding. After half a day, Chen Zong basically grasped the mystery of Zhengyuan Jin, and the rest was slowly understood and mastered during practice.
On the second floor of the small building, Chen Zong crossed his legs, placed his hands clasped on his lower abdomen, held his chest and lifted his back, imagining that he was like a tree like a mountain, with a high concentration of spirit and will, getting rid of all distracting thoughts, and using the secret of the first level of Zhengyuan Jin,
The mantras recited silently cooperate with each other to guide the first primitive inner energy in the body to slowly start functioning.
