Chapter 353: All thanks to peers! (Fourth update)
Seeing Yelu Qi's expression, Liu Qingke knew that he had made a decision, and said with a smile: "Let's go, since you want to learn martial arts, then go to class. The class for the head disciple is about to begin. Look, they are all ready to go."
Yelu Qi looked and saw that everyone in the square had started to pack up, and some had already left.
Yelu Qi's appetite had been aroused, and he was full of anticipation. He quickly said, "Then let's go too."
The two of them hurried on their way and arrived at another square. Yes, the class was held outdoors because there were so many people listening.
A high platform was built on the huge square, and everyone gathered around it, leaving a certain amount of space between people. Everyone held a sword in their hands, so that when Xin Zhen was lecturing, they could also listen while practicing with the swords in their hands.
Yelu Qi and his companion arrived quickly and occupied a good position. After a while, the square was full of people. Yelu Qi took a look and saw that there must be at least one or two thousand people. He could not help but be amazed.
You know, the Quanzhen Sect has sent out many disciples, but there are still so many people on the mountain, which shows how powerful the Quanzhen Sect is now!
No wonder he was able to accomplish so many great things!
Yelu Qi thought to himself.
At this time, Xin Zhen had not arrived yet, but the disciples who had arrived earlier had already started practicing on their own. Yelu Qi took a look and realized that what Liu Qingke said was right.
Liu Qingke had said before that his swordsmanship was actually not that good, and Yelu Qi thought he was being modest, but after looking over, he realized that Liu Qingke was not being modest.
Of course, most of these disciples' swordsmanship is still not as good as Liu Qingke's, but Liu Qingke also said that most of them have just come here to study. Those brothers and sisters who were the same as Liu Qingke had already gone down the mountain to gain experience.
In Yelu Qi's opinion, the swordsmanship of these new disciples was already very sophisticated, at least not worse than his.
Yelu Qi couldn't help but be amazed. You know, he had practiced swordsmanship for more than ten years, and was taught personally by Zhou Botong, a master of the Five Supremes level, but he was not much better than these new disciples. This was really amazing.
In fact, it was not only Yelu Qi who thought so. Qiu Chuji and others were also amazed.
However, this is commonplace for Xin Zhen. The essentials of swordsmanship he summarized are the basics of swordsmanship that he has summarized after thousands of trials and tribulations. The greatest benefit is that it allows disciples with average qualifications to quickly understand those subtle and mysterious principles. After understanding these principles, learning swordsmanship will be twice as effective with half the effort.
To make an inappropriate analogy, when these people originally learned swordsmanship, facing the many sword moves in a set of swordsmanship was like facing a large pile of data that they needed to remember one move at a time, so learning was very difficult.
The key to sword skills is mathematical formulas. There is no need to memorize each move. One only needs to understand these simple formulas and learn how to use them. Then, in their eyes, hundreds or thousands of sword moves are just a few formulas.
As long as they have these formulas, they can easily derive hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of endless sword techniques.
This is why those who have learned the essentials of the sword manual can improve their sword skills very quickly.
Another reason is that Xin Zhen may be the best teacher in this martial arts world. Even if he does not have the general principles of swordsmanship, as long as he teaches according to the rules, the disciples he teaches will be much stronger than those of others.
This is because he had received education from later generations, which emphasized logic and used logic to make thinking traceable. Those concepts and sword moves that were described as mysterious by people in the martial arts world can all be described by Xin Zhen.
Some people teach sword skills by saying that once you reach a certain level, it cannot be described, you need to experience it with your heart, it cannot be described in words, etc. In Xin Zhen's opinion, all of this is bullshit, it's just that you don't understand it yourself.
In Xin Zhen's opinion, this statement is extremely irresponsible, just like some teachers who can't figure out a math problem and then say to the students: This math problem requires you to understand it carefully, I can't explain it to you clearly, and when you accumulate more knowledge, you will naturally be able to solve this problem... Isn't this bullshit!
However, there are many such masters.
In Xin Zhen's opinion, there are many people in the martial arts world who are very good at practicing martial arts, but they are really not suitable to be masters.
There are many examples.
Guo Jing's own martial arts skills have already reached the level of the Five Supremes, but the two martial artists he taught are like two pieces of rotten wood. It's not that they are not powerful, but that disciples of the Five Supremes should not be limited to that level.
Not to mention Huang Yaoshi. Regardless of whether he can teach disciples or not, his psychotic behavior alone shows that he is not worthy of being a teacher.
Other teachers at most mislead their students and prevent them from learning anything, but he is different. When one or two disciples do something wrong, he breaks the legs and feet of the other disciples and kicks them out. Isn't this insane?
Hong Qigong was not much better. With so many disciples in the Beggars' Sect, he didn't find a few talented people to teach. He ignored the affairs of the sect every day and went around looking for delicious food. Damn it. The Beggars' Sect became what it is today, and it had a lot to do with him.
Oh, and there is Wang Chongyang. Wang Chongyang was a martial arts master, but the martial arts he passed on to the Seven Quanzhen Masters were only a Quanzhen Zhenfa, a set of Quanzhen swordsmanship that was not top-notch, and the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation. The other things were not that good martial arts either, so that the Quanzhen Sect was unable to produce a master of the Five Absolutes level for several generations.
Of course, Zhou Botong was an accident here.
Yelu Qi was shocked by the swordsmanship of the Quanzhen disciples. In fact, it was not because of his lack of aptitude, but because Zhou Botong himself had the mentality of a child. When it came to teaching disciples, he was only a novice. Therefore, the fact that Yelu Qi could achieve the level of cultivation he has today was already a reflection of his excellent talent.
In Xin Zhen's opinion, these people either really don't know how to teach, or they are just keeping their knowledge to themselves, or they have mental problems. Compared with these people, Xin Zhen's teaching results seem shocking.
Sometimes Xin Zhen also feels that it’s not because he is so awesome, but because he is compared with his peers.
Yelu Qi didn't have to wait too long before Xin Zhen came on stage.
Xin Zhen didn't waste any time and directly taught the Quanzhen disciples in the audience.
Xin Zhen hadn't said a few words before Yelu Qi was completely trapped.
Many sword theories that he usually found unattainable and too complicated to talk about could be easily understood by Xin Zhen with just a few words and demonstrations.
Xin Zhen also demonstrated other similar sword techniques in the martial arts world to everyone.
——Well, the mysteries of these sword techniques are all based on this principle. If you encounter these sword techniques in the future, don’t be afraid. Just strike back with your sword from here, and the sword move will definitely be broken!
Good guy, he even told you the solutions one by one.
Yelu Qi finally understood why Liu Qingke was so skilled in swordsmanship at such a young age. With such a teacher, what swordsmanship could he not master or what swordsmanship he had not seen?
It can be said that after Xin Zhen's teachings, the Quanzhen disciples not only fully mastered the Quanzhen swordsmanship, but also mastered the most powerful sword moves in the world.
If this swordsmanship is not enough, then it can only be said that this person is a rotten wood that cannot be carved!
