Bai Yunjiang collapsed to the ground, screaming "Ahhh!" with lifeless eyes.
The voice contained pain, regret, despair, and hatred; even he himself probably didn't know the complexity of his emotions at that moment.
It seems that only by screaming loudly can one release their inner emotions.
His arms are useless, and he will likely be unable to take the preliminary exam a month from now.
He is a genius in the top class and should have a bright future ahead of him.
But because of Ling Yi's two punches, they're likely all destroyed.
Seeing Ling Yi walking towards him, Bai Yunjiang retreated in terror, all his emotions turning into fear at that moment.
At this moment, Ling Yi wanted to say something, but because of the system, he couldn't speak, which was quite distressing.
In the end, he could only stare at Bai Yunjiang for a few seconds before turning around and leaving with Yuan Xiaolei.
Ling Yi and Yuan Xiaolei remained silent throughout the journey. Ling Yi was unable to speak, while Yuan Xiaolei was simply not in the mood to talk; Bai Yunjiang had truly disgusted her.
The two went to the supermarket and bought bedding, pillows, toiletries, kitchenware, and even rice, oil, and salt. To outsiders, it seemed as if they were about to start a life together.
The meal was cooked by Yuan Xiaolei, and it was surprisingly delicious.
These days, there aren't many girls who Li Qiang, beautiful, have a good personality, and can cook really well.
Yuan Xiaolei will not be staying here tonight because she needs to go back to her dorm to pack her things.
When Ling Yi returned after taking Yuan Xiaolei back to school, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
Ling Yi rubbed his hands together, preparing to verify some of his guesses.
Ling Yi always felt that the true potential of his cheat system had not yet been fully realized.
However, the incident involving the Nine Yin Manual on the novel website that afternoon gave me considerable inspiration.
Ling Yi spent the entire afternoon pondering one question: What are the system's criteria for judging martial arts skills?
In Ling Yi's view, Heavy Fist is not a high-level martial arts technique.
Does that mean the system's standards for judging martial arts skills aren't as high as we might think?
If that's the case, then...
Thinking of this, Ling Yi became even more excited.
If the verification is successful, then I will never lack martial arts skills in the future.
Ling Yi took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then assumed the starting posture of Tai Chi Fist.
Tai Chi Fist has many variations, categorized into three types: large frame, medium frame, and small frame.
In his previous life, Ling Yi learned the Chen-Style Twenty-Four-Form Tai Chi Fist, which is a type of large-frame Tai Chi Fist.
The characteristic of large-scale Tai Chi Fist is that the movements are smooth, flowing, and very stylish.
In his previous life, Ling Yi only practiced the form of Tai Chi Fist; it was purely for show.
After Ling Yi finished practicing the first time, he felt that his memory of Tai Chi Fist was much clearer, and he inexplicably gained some additional knowledge about Tai Chi Fist power generation techniques.
Ling Yi's eyes lit up, and he quickly opened the system.
[ The Become Stronger by Not Speaking System ]
[Host: Ling Yi ]
[Cultivation Level: Martial Apprentice Fifth Stage (80/5000) (4860 experience points/day)]
[Martial Arts]
{1. Fivefold Heavy Fist (18/50) (81 experience points/day)}
{2. Tai Chi Fist Level 1 (0/10) (24 experience points/day)}
Ling Yi waved his arms vigorously and excitedly started dancing to "Little Apple"... a square dance version.
Although he couldn't speak, he was imagining the melody of "Little Apple" in his mind.
Fortunately, he's home alone. If outsiders saw him writhing around like that, they'd probably think he had some serious illness.
But Ling Yi couldn't help but be excited, thinking that his guess was correct, which meant that he would never have to worry about cultivation methods again.
Ling Yi couldn't help but think of the Graceful Steps upon the Waves a martial arts technique), the Northern Darkness Divine Art, and the Six Meridian Divine Sword...
Okay, I can draw a I Ching Eight Trigrams from the I Ching myself using the Graceful Steps upon the Waves technique, and try it out by taking one step and inhaling with each step, just like in the novel.
But I don't know if techniques like the Northern Darkness Divine Art and the Six Meridian Divine Sword will work.
Although Ling Yi memory, what is described in the novel is ultimately just a theoretical concept.
He understood the principles, Ling Yi Ling Yi knew a little about the theoretical knowledge of acupoints and meridians, but he still needed to study the specifics of how to perform them.
Ling Yi roughly understood that if he wanted the system to include his martial arts skills, he would at least have to give the system a skill outline.
I don't care anymore, let's just do it!
Ling Yi found a pen and drew a Eight Trigrams Diagram with a diameter of about one meter in the center of the living room.
According to the information compiled by Ling Yi in his previous life, the Graceful Steps upon the Waves) consists of a total of sixty-four steps.
The "step" in these sixty-four steps does not refer to a single step, but rather to a sequence.
Each "step" consists of eight steps, but the order of the eight steps is different each time.
For example, the first "step" requires taking a deep breath and walking eight steps in the order of Kun, Zhen, Li, Dui, Qian, Xun, Kan, and Gen.
The second "step" involves exhaling in one breath and completing eight steps in the order of Zhen, Kun, Li, Dui, Qian, Xun, Kan, and Gen.
Following this pattern, inhale once every eight steps, exhale once every eight steps, for a total of sixty-four eight-steps, or Wu Bai and twelve steps.
Ling Yi actually practiced this method in his previous life, but naturally, he didn't achieve anything.
As for whether it will work in this world, Ling Yi will eventually have to give it a try.
Whether Graceful Steps upon the Waves can succeed in using the Ling Yi is of great significance to him.
If he succeeds, it means he will have access to Jin Dada's martial arts manual at will.
Taking a deep breath, Ling Yi took his first step.
Ling Yi didn't seek speed, but only the complete and unhurried completion of these Wu Bai steps.
The process went surprisingly smoothly. Ling Yi completed Wu Bai steps accurately on his first attempt, taking 15 minutes.
As Ling Yi finished walking, he felt as if the Wu Bai steps were branded into his mind, and he even made subtle adjustments to some of the steps.
For example, which steps should be taken faster, which steps slower, and there are two additional ways to walk: forward and backward.
Ling Yi opened the system panel, and sure enough, Graceful Steps upon the Waves was successfully added to the list of martial arts skills.
However, the Graceful Steps upon the Waves a martial Graceful Steps upon the Waves ) cannot generate Internal Energy, but it can absorb the Heaven and Earth Genki and earth while using it to cleanse the body and achieve the effect of Body Tempering.
This is more than a hundred times more powerful than the Heavy Fist Body-Tempering Method.
Unfortunately, it was still useless against Ling Yi. After two rounds, Ling Yi hadn't gained any experience points.
Well, since the system's surname is Ren, Ling Yi had nothing to say.
Even so, Ling Yi was quite content. Although he couldn't absorb the Heaven and Earth Genki to cleanse himself when he was using the Ling Yi Graceful Steps upon the Waves technique, the Heaven and Earth Genki he absorbed could still be used by him.
That's pretty impressive.
Ling Yi sat down at the Computer, opened a Notepad document, and prepared to write down all the martial arts techniques from the fourteen Heavenly Book.
Ling Yi set aside anything related to Internal Energy for the time being.
Ling Yi estimated that he would only be able to study martial arts related to Internal Energy after reaching the Martial Practitioner Realm.
No, perhaps not even the Martial Practitioner Realm is enough.
The Martial Practitioner Realm can only comprehend the Heaven and Earth Genki and Heaven and Earth Genki, drawing upon it to cleanse oneself; it is a process of continuously increasing one's affinity with the Heaven and Earth Genki and earth.
Only those at the Martial Master Realm can store Genki within their bodies.
However, the primary martial arts school does not offer courses on the Martial Master Realm, and even the content related to Martial Practitioner is not taught much.
Only by attending advanced martial arts schools can one learn this kind of content.
However, Ling Yi wasn't in a hurry. Anyway, everything was under the system's control, and the Martial Master Realm wasn't far away for him.
Jin Dada created over four hundred different martial arts techniques in his fourteen Heavenly Book.
However, most of the martial arts techniques were only mentioned briefly without being explained in detail.
There are at least sixty-odd that have traceable origins or at least a theoretical basis.
However, most martial arts require Internal Energy as support; without Internal Energy, they cannot be used at all.
However, there are some martial arts techniques that do not require Internal Energy to support them.
For example, the Nine Swords of Dugu.
But the Nine Swords of Dugu, though called a sword technique, is more of a mental calculation method; those who aren't intelligent enough simply can't learn it.
Basically, the moment someone makes a move, you need to generate all the possible outcomes in your mind and find a way to counter it.
Those who are not smart enough, lack vision, or can't keep up with the pace simply can't play this game.
This kind of swordsmanship might be somewhat viable in lower-level matches, but once you encounter a master with strong Internal Energy, they can simply overpower Myriad Arts. How can you possibly compete then?
Okay, that's enough for today. It's already past 11 p. m. Time to shut down and go to sleep.
The next morning, Ling Yi attended class as usual.
Long Xiaotao and the other two who missed class yesterday all appeared in the classroom.
And it seemed that Long Xiaotao's injuries had already healed, which surprised Ling Yi slightly.
Where did this kid get his Genki potion? Those things aren't cheap.
Moreover, the way Long Xiaotao looked at him was rather strange, filled with hatred and schadenfreude.
Could it be that this kid has turned his life around and had some kind of miraculous encounter?
" Ling Yi, did you cripple Bai Yunjiang?" Tie Bi walked over and asked in a low voice.
Ling Yi nodded.
What is your current strength?
Ling Yi glanced at his system interface and made a five-sign.
Tie Bi wanted to ask Ling Yi how he did it, but seeing that Ling Yi didn't seem inclined to speak, he immediately felt a little disheartened.
He quietly returned to his seat.
Ling Yi didn't think much of it. He didn't have Kung Fu Hustle for socializing right now, especially since he couldn't speak. Socializing was an extremely painful thing for him.
Ling Yi is currently researching the upgraded Tai Chi Fist and Graceful Steps upon the Waves ).
In short: absolutely invincible.
Ling Yi really wants to find someone to test the power of his new skill, but he doesn't know if Long Xiaotao will bring him any surprises.
There were some surprises, but not too many.
After the morning classes ended, Long Xiaotao jumped out to provoke Ling Yi, only to be slapped away by Ling Yi.
No wonder this guy felt like he was invincible again; it turns out his strength had broken through to the Martial Apprentice Third Stage.
Reaching the Martial Apprentice Third Stage isn't really a big surprise.
I told you, how could a bit player possibly turn their life around?
At this moment, Ling Yi received a text message from Yuan Xiaolei, saying that she should wait for him at the school gate.
When Ling Yi arrived at the school gate, he suddenly felt a little tired.
It's often said that beautiful women bring disaster, and the ancients were right.
Two teenagers were fighting in front of Yuan Xiaolei, scattering Rose all over the ground.
Judging from their clothes, these two must come from well-off families.
Both were at the Martial Apprentice Fourth Stage, but their Combat style was no different from that of thugs.
Pshaw, is this supposed to be Combat? All that tearing and ripping, it's unbearable to watch.
Ling Yi approached Yuan Xiaolei, gave her a look, and the two walked directly out of the school.
The two men who were fighting immediately objected.
Holy crap, we're risking our lives here, and this kid actually dares to steal it?!
"Hey kid, you stop right there!" one of them yelled.
Ling Yi shook his head, rolled his eyes at Yuan Xiaolei, then turned around, sped up, and punched the person who had spoken.
However, this time Ling Yi did not hurt anyone; his fist stopped a few centimeters from the person.
However, the force of Ling Yi's punch still sent the man staggering back several meters before he regained his footing.
They shook their fingers at him, then turned and left.
