Hearing Fang Chen's words, the people who had been about to disperse stopped again.
"What did he just say?"
"Fang Chen seems to have figured out where the problem is!"
"How is that possible? So many people didn't notice it, but he did? Do you think he's Master Hong?!"
Everyone began discussing it animatedly, somewhat astonished by Fang Chen's words.
Wang Yanshan turned around and asked bluntly,
"What do you mean? Did you figure it out?!"
"If you don't understand, just say so. Why pretend otherwise just for a hundred taels?"
The disciples watching also nodded,
"Junior Brother Fang, everyone else failed to notice it, and there's nothing shameful about that. Why pretend you understand?"
"Junior Sister should have gone straight to ask Master Hong. Asking us is useless."
Suddenly, one of the disciples turned to Song Ming,
"Senior Brother Song, did you notice the mistake?"
At that, everyone turned their eyes toward Song Ming in unison.
The corners of Song Ming's lips lifted slightly as he answered confidently:
"Of course I noticed it."
"But since Junior Brother Fang is so confident, let's let him try guiding Junior Sister first. If Junior Brother Fang can't do it, I'll explain it to Junior Sister!"
The disciples watching all voiced their admiration,
"As expected of Senior Brother Song! I never thought that besides cultivating quickly, Senior Brother Song would also be so skilled at teaching!"
"Haha, I say we should just let Senior Brother Song explain it. Why waste so much time?"
"Exactly. Practicing the Tiger Subduing Fist from beginning to end takes quite a while. Junior Brother Fang, don't waste everyone's time."
Fang Chen merely smiled and said to Luo Shuiling, "Junior Sister Luo, go ahead and start practicing. I'll point out the problems in the details."
Luo Shuiling was not affected by the surrounding crowd.
In fact, the reason she had come to Fang Chen was that she felt he must be very capable.
Therefore, even though no one else thought highly of him, Luo Shuiling would not easily change her mind.
When Luo Shuiling began practicing, everyone tactfully shut their mouths.
Some thought it was a waste of time and dispersed to focus on their own martial training.
Of course, most of them stayed.
They wanted to see whether Fang Chen really had the ability, or whether he was merely boasting wildly.
Song Ming in particular watched most carefully.
If Fang Chen failed to point out a problem, or overlooked anything, Song Ming would have his chance to show off.
Unlike the others,
Wang Yanshan felt inexplicably afraid at that moment.
Could I be about to lose to Fang Chen again?
Wang Yanshan's reason took hold once more, and he suddenly felt that Fang Chen might really be stronger than him. Otherwise, how could he be so confident?!
However, the matter had already been agreed upon, and there was no way to back out.
Wang Yanshan could only pray inwardly, hoping Fang Chen was merely putting on a brave front. That way, he would not lose a hundred taels for nothing.
But events always unfolded beyond Wang Yanshan's expectations.
When Luo Shuiling reached the third form, Fang Chen stepped forward to coach Junior Sister.
"Your shoulders appear relaxed and lowered, but in truth, you're forcing the posture. Your shoulders and neck are tense, so naturally your exertion is off as well, preventing your qi and blood from flowing smoothly."
Fang Chen gently patted Junior Sister's shoulder.
Luo Shuiling suddenly understood. She corrected her posture and continued practicing.
Naturally, everyone watching saw Luo Shuiling's performance.
Not only the look of sudden realization on her face,
but also the fact that her movements seemed to have become smoother.
Luo Shuiling's original posture had appeared flawless, but in truth, it was slightly stiff.
After Fang Chen's guidance, the third form immediately became much more fluid for Luo Shuiling.
Among the onlookers, Song Ming sneered disdainfully and thought, He has some ability, at least. He's a little better than Wang Yanshan, but this isn't the only problem with the details.
Before long, Luo Shuiling reached another part that looked somewhat strange.
Song Ming stared intently at Fang Chen, thinking that Fang Chen surely had not noticed this error.
However, to Song Ming's disappointment,
Fang Chen stepped forward again and pointed out the problem.
"Don't overemphasize thrusting out your chest and drawing in your stomach. Your waist has already twisted out of shape."
Hearing this, Luo Shuiling pulled her two large breasts slightly backward.
The pressure on her waist immediately lessened, and exerting force naturally became easier.
Song Ming ground his teeth, indignant.
If I'd known, I would have spoken first. Now Fang Chen is stealing all the limelight!
Although the onlookers were all very quiet, careful not to disturb Fang Chen's guidance,
their hearts had long since been thrown into a tempest, and they were utterly astonished by Fang Chen.
Who could have imagined that Fang Chen could so effortlessly guide someone through her confusion?!
It was one thing for him to practice martial arts quickly, but he was this impressive at teaching others too!
Everyone recalled what Master Hong had once said.
"When it comes to martial arts, if someone can easily identify the key to another person's mistakes and teach them to understand, that proves the person truly understands it themselves."
Everyone felt that Fang Chen's understanding of the Tiger Subduing Fist was profound, solid, and crystal clear.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to guide someone else so effortlessly.
As for Luo Shuiling,
Fang Chen hit the nail on the head every time, striking directly at the crux of the matter and allowing her to realize her mistakes immediately. Her gains could be said to be enormous!
Luo Shuiling continued practicing, becoming smoother and smoother.
Everyone watching eagerly awaited Fang Chen's further explanations.
Song Ming, however, was beginning to lose patience. He muttered inwardly,
All the problems have been pointed out. Is there any need for Fang Chen to keep having Luo Shuiling practice?
Song Ming clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention, and said with a smile:
"I never thought Junior Brother Fang would understand the Tiger Subduing Fist so thoroughly."
"The two problems you mentioned were exactly the same ones I noticed. They were indeed Junior Sister's problems."
"But that's as far as it goes. Junior Brother Fang, surely there's no need to keep wasting everyone's time?"
Hearing Song Ming's words, everyone finally reacted and began praising him.
"Haha, as expected of Senior Brother Song! Senior Brother Song has eyes like torches and must have seen all the problems, just like Junior Brother Fang."
"So it's already over? I thought there would be more problems later."
"If Senior Brother Song says there are no more problems, then there definitely aren't any. Once Junior Sister finishes this set, she should be able to successfully enter the discipline!"
Everyone began discussing noisily, and Luo Shuiling was slightly affected, unable to concentrate on her practice.
At that moment, Fang Chen suddenly shouted, "Stop making noise! It isn't over yet!"
Everyone fell silent at once and saw that Fang Chen was still carefully watching Luo Shuiling practice.
Song Ming furrowed his brows slightly, thoughts churning in his mind.
What nonsense is Fang Chen spouting?!
"Aren't these the only problems? How could it possibly not be over yet!"
Showing off for attention, showing off for attention! To steal the limelight, Fang Chen has actually started spouting nonsense!
However, just as Luo Shuiling reached the final form,
Fang Chen stepped forward once more to coach her.
"Your legs aren't exerting force correctly. It looks as though you're pushing off the ground, but your feet aren't actually gripping the ground. As a result, the force has already broken apart while being transmitted from your feet to your waist and then your shoulders."
"It looks powerful, but the transitions are flawed. It lacks that feeling of everything flowing as one, of suddenly flinging the force out in a single, fierce motion!"
Luo Shuiling understood instantly and adopted the correct posture.
She exerted force violently, completing the motion in one breath with seamless transitions!
Everyone could see the change in Luo Shuiling.
That was because this performance of the Tiger Subduing Fist was clearly much smoother than the previous one!
"Ha!"
Luo Shuiling suddenly threw the final punch.
Under everyone's astonished gazes, Luo Shuiling happily said to Fang Chen:
"Thank you, Senior Brother. I successfully entered the discipline!"
Seeing this, Song Ming, standing to the side, could no longer remain composed.
