In the middle of the afternoon, Ye Chong received a call.
Bao Sihai called, saying that he wanted to go to the basement of the martial arts combat department again.
Ye Chong thought to himself, could it be that he had doubts about the physical data tested in the morning?
As a result, Bao Sihai explained that it really wasn't that, but that he wanted to guide his cultivation. After all, he had just made a breakthrough, and this was a new stage of cultivation. If he took a detour, he would inevitably suffer in the future, and he would also suffer a lot.
It will waste time.
Ye Chong was of course happy when he heard this. This was what he had always dreamed of doing. He was just trying to find an opportunity to ask for advice, but he didn't expect someone to take the initiative to provide guidance.
This is a good thing.
Soon, he went to the underground training room of the martial arts combat department.
What surprised him was that Bao Sihai had arrived there early.
Ye Chong felt really embarrassed.
In fact, it was not his intention to be late for class in the morning. After all, he was trying to comprehend the "Destroying Heaven and Earth" sword technique. Once he missed the opportunity, he would not be able to comprehend it if he tried to comprehend it again.
It is precisely for similar reasons that Kyushu Martial Arts Academy is very free in its teaching model, and everything is premised on not affecting martial arts practice.
Of course, this is normal.
In the event of a mission or other emergency, discipline and rules are still very strict.
Speaking of which, martial arts students will not be lazy and take advantage of loopholes. If they take advantage of loopholes now, they are actually making their lives full of holes.
"Captain, you came so early?" Ye Chong smiled awkwardly, "After I received the call, I trotted here..."
"I called you right here, so you don't have to be embarrassed." Bao Sihai waved his hand, looking very serious, "You already know the reason why I called you here. Now is the time to lay the foundation.
If you take a detour now, you won't be able to feel it as a martial arts warrior, but if you become a martial arts warrior, you will find that your practice has entered a dead end, and I am afraid it will be difficult to move forward."
"Yes," Ye Chong paused when he saw the other party's words, stared at himself, and immediately agreed: "Thank you, Teacher Bao, I originally wanted to ask you for advice, but now I am really confused and don't know what the future holds.
Walk?"
Ye Chong was right, this was what he had always thought in his heart, and it was also one of the most important purposes of entering the martial arts academy.
Even a genius needs guidance and guidance to achieve success.
Otherwise, why would there be so many geniuses in the world rushing to apply for the best schools? Which one can compare with the freedom of self-study at home?
Anyway, the strength and foundation are there, even if you are self-taught, you are much better than many people, right?
No.
Unless there are special circumstances, few people will do that.
To put it bluntly, I just want someone to guide and point out from the front, as if it is a beacon, telling you where the road is, at least avoid detours and avoid entering dead ends, right?
What's more, a lesson from the past can serve as a guide for future events.
The successful experience and failure lessons of predecessors are of great significance to those who come after us.
Bao Sihai nodded and said slowly: "After you become an official warrior, you can no longer look at yourself according to the standards of a non-warrior.
Budo is not a martial art.
Martial arts is about exercising the body.
Martial arts is achieved through martial arts.
Warriors, as people who understand martial arts, are truly worthy of the word martial arts.
Therefore, since you have become a warrior, you must restrain yourself by the standards and requirements of a warrior.
As for the standards and requirements for warriors, there are different opinions. You may have seen a lot of them on the Internet, such as reaching 100 Qi and blood, or truly learning martial arts...
In fact, these are just entry-level definitions for martial artists, not development standards. The unlimited pursuit of martial arts is the only standard and requirement.
How to understand this sentence?
I can't tell you the answer.
People are different and have different understandings of it, but it will determine how far you can go in the martial arts.
Do you understand it?"
"I..." Ye Chong hesitated, a look of constipation appeared on his face, "It seems... like... I understand... a little bit... whiter?"
"It's just that you can't fully understand it now. I hate those who clearly don't understand, but they open their mouths and say it clearly." Bao Sihai nodded, and then said:
"Now you will feel that this sentence is empty and unreal. This is nothing, it is normal.
However, when you look back in the future, you will realize that it is your own guiding light.
It will bring you hope when you are in despair.
It will bring you passion when you are feeling down.
It will give you courage when you are ready to give up.
It will give you confidence when you are completely defeated.
It will wake you up when you are arrogant.
…
There are a lot more.
It's really amazing.
Maybe it can only be understood but not expressed in words.
The first thing I want to do when I call you here today is to let you understand its existence and establish it in your own heart. This is very important.
It is actually your belief.
People without faith cannot go far.”
"I understand, Teacher Bao." Ye Chong looked respectful and nodded, as if he understood something.
Bao Sihai smiled slightly and continued:
"The first level of a warrior is that of a junior martial arts warrior.
As you can tell from the name, warriors are the focus.
So, what is a warrior?
Of course they are people who go to war.
The existence of junior martial arts warriors cannot be separated from the battlefield.
In the past, this battlefield referred to fighting, that is, honing oneself and understanding martial arts in the process of successive battles.
Now, this battlefield is really a battlefield, that is, the war between humans and beasts. Every battle, every battle, is the best place to understand martial arts and hone oneself.
On the battlefield, you cannot be afraid, you must be afraid!"
"..." Ye Chong's head was covered with black lines. He opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.
Bao Sihai looked serious and said slowly:
"Don't be afraid, it's very simple.
When facing a battlefield where life and death can only take a moment, if you are afraid, you are really doomed.
Your fighting spirit will drop to the bottom in an instant, which will make you lose confidence and greatly reduce your strength.
In this case, maybe a low-level monster that is far weaker than you can kill you.
It is necessary to be afraid, and it is simple.
On the battlefield of life and death, a person must maintain a sense of awe and not be arrogant.
Otherwise, underestimating the enemy, being careless and stupid will put people into dangerous situations without knowing it.
Even if you suddenly wake up by then, it will be difficult to get out of the predicament. This is the price of disrespecting your opponent."
Ye Chong frowned and nodded.
He knew very well in his heart that there was nothing wrong with what Bao Sihai said.
Some time ago, he was indeed too smooth, which made him feel a little confused.
Especially with his status as not even a one-star quasi-warrior, he was able to go deep into the Leqing Mountains and come and go freely, and rescued Li Panpan, and even helped Yan Jinglei and his party escape...
These things allowed him to enjoy endless glory and pride, but in fact, they also made him lose a little respect and awe for his enemies.
