Hellish Training

When Tsunade looked up, all she saw was a starry sky, and nothing else.

"Xiao Ye, what are you looking at? Why aren't you asleep yet?" Tsunade was a little puzzled by his behavior.

"What are you looking at? Tsunade- nee, don't you think this starry sky is really beautiful?" Xuan Ye didn't answer why he wasn't sleeping, but instead shared his feelings with Tsunade.

"The starry sky? It's beautiful?"

Tsunade raised her head again, and all she saw was an endless starry sky. Apart from a bright white crescent moon and a few stars, there was nothing else in the sky.

"Is this starry sky beautiful?" Tsunade didn't understand Xuan Ye's thoughts, nor did she understand why he would use the word "beautiful" to describe a monotonous starry sky.

"Yes! It's beautiful, I like it very much." That was Xuan Ye's answer, simple and clear.

"Hehe! If you like it, then watch more! But remember to go to bed early, otherwise you might not be able to get up tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, Tsunade- nee, you go to sleep first! I'll go to sleep in a bit," Xuan Ye replied.

He didn't know why, but he just felt that the starry sky was beautiful. Looking up at the starry sky in the quiet night seemed like a pretty good thing.

Night passed quickly, and daylight returned.

Xuan Ye was still the first one to get up, perhaps because he had been getting used to waking up so early for so long.

The morning air was still cold, and dewdrops clung to the leaves. Birds occasionally flew across the sky, and everything was so quiet that not a sound was made.

Xuan Ye found a relatively open space and began his early morning exercise. He didn't know how much time had passed before Tsunade and Shizune woke up.

Seeing that they had woken up, Xuan Ye stopped his training and walked over to them.

Breakfast was naturally prepared by Xuan Ye, and there was no choice in the matter. If he didn't prepare breakfast, then he would only be able to eat biscuits and some dried goods, which Xuan Ye naturally didn't want to eat.

After breakfast, Xuan Ye and his two companions left the place where they had stayed for about three days and wandered around the forest.

No one knew exactly how big the forest was. Xuan Ye, the three of them walked around in the forest for an entire afternoon and still hadn't made it out. Of course, while walking through the forest, Xuan Ye was also undergoing Tsunade's training.

Around noon, after eating, she began another hellish training session. Tsunade's training plan was truly ruthless, going as far as it could, pushing her to the brink of death. Even if she got injured, it didn't matter, because she was a medical ninja and could heal her injuries.

Among these, one of the most painful things Xuan Ye remembered was the training of Xuan Ye dodging ability. This training involved Tsunade chasing after Xuan Ye and attacking him directly, while Xuan Ye could not retaliate and could only dodge.

For several days in a row, Genya spent almost every Xuan Ye under the protection of Tsunade's fists.

This really put Xuan Ye in a difficult position. Being unable to retaliate and only able to dodge was extremely painful. In fact, even if he could retaliate, it wouldn't be of much use. With Tsunade's strength, could he possibly defeat her?

Tsunade also explained this training, saying that this ability training is very important, as the ability to dodge is crucial in battle.

Think about it carefully: if you are fighting an enemy in a battle, and every attack and every punch you make hits your opponent, while your opponent can't hit you at all, then isn't the outcome of this battle obvious?

And so began Xuan Ye's agonizing training journey. Unable to retaliate, he could only be chased and beaten by Tsunade, suffering immense pain.

Tsunade's punches are no joke; each one is imbued with Superhuman Strength. If Xuan Ye is hit by one of her punches, he will definitely be injured. Although Tsunade did not use her full strength, her punches would still injure Xuan Ye.

Fortunately, Tsunade is a medical ninja who can use Medical Chakra, so Xuan Ye wasn't too worried about his injury.

Not only is he not worried, but Xuan Ye can also hone his Medical Chakra and use the Medical Chakra he creates to heal himself. In Tsunade's words, this is called killing two birds with one stone.

Although this was training and Tsunade wasn't using her full strength, there was one thing she was very serious about: she would never hold back. If there was any chance to hit Xuan Ye, she would definitely not hesitate.

Tsunade explained her behavior by saying, "Only by enduring hardship will one work harder to dodge, thus increasing one's strength faster and more quickly."

In addition to his ability to dodge, Tsunade also trained him in his resilience and reaction speed over the past few days, which could be done together.

Xuan Ye seemed to be having some regrets, unsure whether his decision to have Tsunade train him was right or wrong.

If we're only talking about the speed of the increase in strength, then this decision is absolutely correct. However, as for the process itself, Xuan Ye absolutely doesn't want to recall it, because it was just too painful.

Training only ended in the evening, at which time Tsunade would be by Xuan Ye's side, watching him use chakra to heal himself, and Tsunade would also remind Xuan Ye when he did something wrong.

These past few days have been arguably the most fulfilling for Xuan Ye. Before meeting Tsunade, his training was rather casual. Compared to his current training, it's fair to say that his previous workouts were just warm-ups, or perhaps not even that.

Only a few days had passed, but Xuan Ye could clearly feel that his strength had increased, his power had increased significantly, his stamina and physical strength had increased significantly, his speed had also increased, and even his chakra had increased significantly.

Xuan Ye felt very gratified that his strength had improved significantly compared to a few days ago. After all, he had gone through hellish training, a process that was extremely painful! If his strength still couldn't improve after all that, he would really be devastated.

Besides himself, every night Xuan Ye would explain the techniques of Tai Chi Palm to Tsunade and the other girl, and personally demonstrate Tai Chi Palm.

After these days of hard work, the two of them were finally able to perform all the Tai Chi Palm postures. Although they were still awkward and not smooth, they were much better than a few days ago when they couldn't even do the postures.
