"I'm sorry, Anya!"

Originally, when Uchiha Yue and Hyuga Anya were sparring, he didn't feel that his movements were inappropriate. However, when Uchiha Yue noticed that Hyuga Anya's face was flushed, he suddenly realized that the position of his fingers was a little awkward. He quickly withdrew his fingers and apologized to Hyuga Anya.

However, although Hyuga Anya's face flushed red, there was no blame in her eyes for Uchiha Yue. In fact, just as Uchiha Yue apologized, a hint of panic flashed in Hyuga Anya's eyes, and she hurriedly waved her hand, saying, "Tsuki, I know you didn't mean it, but... but..."

At this point, Hyuga Anya didn't go any further, making Uchiha Yue even more embarrassed.

Then, after Uchiha Yue and Hyuga Anya had calmed down a bit, Uchiha Yue prepared to break the awkward atmosphere. He coughed lightly and said, "Ahem, Anya, let's use Gentle Fist again, the one you were using earlier. When we were sparring, I noticed two flaws in your Gentle Fist. First, you subconsciously adopt the starting stance of Gentle Fist. Second, your reaction time is a bit slow, which inevitably gives the enemy an opening during combat."

With that, Uchiha Yue beckoned to Hyuga Anya in front of him and continued, "Anya, this time it's my turn to attack!"

"Good!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Yue's words, Hyuga Anya nodded slightly and immediately prepared to defend against Uchiha Yue's attack.

However, Hyuga Anya never expected that Uchiha Yue's attack speed would be so fast. Moreover, Uchiha Yue was also using the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist, but he made absolutely no unnecessary movements when using it. In fact, Hyuga Anya thought that Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist of using Gentle Fist was somewhat similar to that of her teacher, Hyuga Hiashi Uchiha Yue. However, Hyuga Hiashi's Gentle Fist level was slightly higher than Uchiha Yue's, after all, Hyuga Hiashi was an expert in Gentle Fist.

However, even as Uchiha Yue attacked with Gentle Fist, Hyuga Anya still felt a sense of pressure. Then, when Uchiha Yue closed in on Hyuga Anya, the angle of his Gentle Fist became even more tricky, making it very difficult for Hyuga Anya Uchiha Yue defend. After only five rounds of fighting, Uchiha Yue Hyuga Anya felt she could no longer withstand Hyuga Anya Uchiha Yue's attacks.

Then, to avoid embarrassing Hyuga Anya, Uchiha Yue promptly stopped and said, "Anya, did you feel it?"

"Thank you so much, Yue!"

As soon as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Hyuga Anya nodded and said, "I've noticed that when you use Gentle Fist, you're not bound by the Gentle Fist at all; it's like you're adapting to each move. But when I use Gentle Fist, I seem a bit rigid. Every movement has to follow the standard Gentle Fist method, and in a fight, I might only be able to unleash half the power of Gentle Fist."

"That's right."

Hearing Hyuga Anya's words, Uchiha Yue thought to himself that Hyuga Anya truly lived up to her reputation as a rising elite of the Hyuga Clan. In just a few minutes of sparring, she had grasped the essence of Gentle Fist. Of course, the method of using Gentle Fist was too rigid, a common flaw among the new Hyuga Clan of Hyuga ninjas. Just like Hyuga Anihiko, who had fought Uchiha Yue before, his style was exactly the same as Hyuga Anya's. If Uchiha Yue truly mastered Gentle Fist, then their Gentle Fist would be completely powerless.

Then, Uchiha Yue taught Hyuga Anya how to use Gentle Fist, and even taught her his own Gentle Fist techniques. After all, Uchiha Yue was able to learn the Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist thanks to Hyuga Anya. Therefore, to make up for the fact that Hyuga Anya taught him Gentle Fist, Uchiha Yue didn't hesitate to teach Hyuga Anya his own Gentle Fist techniques; he wanted to make up for Hyuga Anya in this respect.

Seeing that Hyuga Anya was making rapid progress, Uchiha Yue couldn't help but marvel at the Hyuga Clan also had exceptionally talented ninjas.

However, the Hyuga Clan's rigid education system stifled many talents.

Just like Hyuga Anya in front of Uchiha Yue, despite possessing extremely high talent in Gentle Fist, the rigid education of the Hyuga Clan meant that Hyuga Anya could only use Gentle Fist for offense and defense in a rigid, formulaic way. However, Uchiha Yue's teaching was very effective. After Uchiha Yue finished teaching Hyuga Anya Gentle Fist, we can see that Hyuga Anya no longer adheres to those rigid moves when using Gentle Fist, and even her strength has improved to a higher level.

Seeing Hyuga Anya's rapid progress, Uchiha Yue smiled slightly and said, "Anya, let's stop here for today. I'll go back and rest for a bit, then we can practice Gentle Fist together again." Then, as if remembering something, he asked, "By the way, Anya, I once practiced the Gentle Uchiha Yue Gentle Fist Technique of the Guarding Eight Trigrams with you. Have you been studying it lately?"

"I'm sorry, Yue, I haven't properly studied your techniques yet."

Hearing Uchiha Yue say this, Hyuga Anya lowered her head shyly and said, "Yue, if you have time, could you help me develop the Gentle Fist Technique to Guarding Eight Trigrams?"

Okay. Alright.

If he had known Hyuga Anya would do this, Uchiha Yue would never have changed his mind. Now he even wants to slap himself twice.

Undoubtedly, if he were to practice the Gentle Fist Technique of the Guarding Eight Trigrams alongside Hyuga Anya, Uchiha Yue would have even less time to rest. However, having promised Hyuga Anya, Uchiha Yue had to fulfill his promise. He then took out some Kunai from his ninja tool pouch and said to Hyuga Anya, "Anya, the Gentle Fist Uchiha Yue of the Guarding Eight Trigrams is primarily about protection. Now, I'm going to attack you with Kunai, and you will defend using the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms from the Gentle Fist. Furthermore, I need you to be able to deflect every Kunai I throw with each palm strike. Can you do that?"

"I'll give it a try!"

Seeing how much effort Uchiha Yue put in, Hyuga Anya was delighted and immediately nodded in agreement with Uchiha Yue's words.

However, when Uchiha Yue prepared to begin training Hyuga Anya the Gentle Fist Technique for the Guarding Eight Trigrams, he didn't forget to use his Sharingan Uchiha Yue Hyuga Anya's training. After all, Uchiha Yue hadn't yet created his own Gentle Fist Technique for the Guarding Eight Trigrams. If he could learn something from Hyuga Anya's training, his understanding of the Uchiha Yue Hyuga Clan's Gentle Fist would deepen.

Immediately afterwards...

Without the slightest hesitation, Uchiha Yue began training Hyuga Anya in front of him with the Kunai in his hand.

However, just as Uchiha Yue Hyuga Anya had been training for three whole hours, an uninvited guest appeared in front of Hyuga Anya!
