Chapter 66: Martial Arts Coach
Faced with Lu Yue's aggressive training challenge, any practitioner with a bit of temper would probably want to rush up and teach this guy a lesson, but most of them had suffered losses and had lost their temper after being beaten by Lu Yue, so they could only hold their anger and dared not express it.

Although Li Yi is young, he is not the kind of brainless rookie, so he did not agree to Lu Yue's request for sparring. He came to the training ground to concentrate on learning and training, not to be competitive.

So he simply chose to ignore it.

Faced with Li Yi's disregard, Lu Yue lost interest and began to provoke others again.

"Li Yi, you are very good and you can keep your composure. I remember there was a newcomer yesterday who, like you, was angered by Lu Yue's words. As a result, he suffered a great loss during the sparring and is still lying in the hospital. Although Lu Yue expressed his willingness to pay for the medical expenses, this behavior is too humiliating and will destroy a person's spirit, which is likely to affect the subsequent practice of the practitioner."

Instructor Li Shudi, who was standing by, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Yi was not impulsive.

"I'm not afraid of Lu Yue. I just don't want to be like him and injure or cripple people, or offend people for no reason." Li Yi expressed his thoughts.

Li Shudi frowned at this, a little surprised: "Oh? Are you confident that you can beat this Lu Yue?"

Li Yi said: "I learned a boxing technique that does not belong to this world. This boxing technique is born for killing people. It kills or maims the opponent. Lu Yue is not an enemy, so there is no need for me to practice with him."

"boxing?"

Li Shudi's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly remembered something: "Wait, you just said your name is Li Yi? You are not the one who killed eight medium-level practitioners in the old city seven days ago? It is said that the people in the spiritual realm are no match for you, and they had to lose a leg after a hard fight."

"Um, has my affair caused such a big deal? Instructor, you know everything about it?" Li Yi said a little embarrassedly.

As a young man who only wanted to make progress, he was not very willing to have such a reputation.

Li Shudi laughed and said, "I don't know if others care or not, but as a martial arts instructor, I am naturally very concerned about this kind of thing. I am very curious about what kind of boxing can make a practitioner burst out with such strength? Speaking of boxing, Li Yi, do you know why our country's traditional martial arts have completely declined?"

"Traditional martial arts are a means of fighting for ordinary people and are no longer suitable for practitioners." Li Yi thought of Brother Tao's comments on martial arts in the danger zone before.

"Yes, that's right. All the moves and techniques of traditional martial arts are only to maximize the physical advantages of ordinary people. Once the people who practice martial arts are no longer ordinary people, but evolved practitioners, traditional martial arts will be like the dregs of the old era and are destined to be eliminated."

"I became a national martial arts champion at the age of 20. I am proficient in Xingyi, Tongbi, Bagua, Tai Chi and other martial arts. I can be said to be a martial arts master. Even after becoming a practitioner, I thought I could combine the strengths of hundreds of martial arts and develop martial arts that are unique to practitioners. But unfortunately, the more I practiced and the more my body evolved, the more I felt that traditional martial arts were useless."

When Li Shudi said this, a look of disappointment appeared in his eyes.

It can be seen that he wanted to find a way out for traditional martial arts and develop it, but it seems that he failed.

"Is there nothing good about traditional martial arts?" Li Yi asked with a frown.

If that were the case, then there would be no need to waste time on his fighting skills.

"You watch."

Li Shudi did not say anything. He just moved his arms, swung them forward half a circle and threw a punch. The wind from the punch was whistling, strong and powerful.

"Do you know what kind of punch I just threw?" he asked later.

Li Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know. I don't know much about traditional martial arts."

Li Shudi sighed and said, "I just used Tongbi Quan. Tongbi Quan is all about using your arms to strike from a distance and swinging your arms for power. In layman's terms, your arms are longer than your enemy's, and you use the advantage of your arms to swing your fists, thereby generating greater power and causing greater destructive power than ordinary people."

"But if you were a cultivator, what would you do when facing a fighting style like mine?"

Li Yi said without hesitation: "You are not a man of honor."

Li Shudi said with a strange look, "Yes, that's right. The reaction speed of practitioners is amazing. It's a competition of speed and strength. The Tongbiquan fighting style is equivalent to giving up the opportunity to punch quickly, and the increase in strength brought by swinging the arm is almost useless, because if you punch slowly, the practitioner's nerves will react quickly and can even dodge."

"So this kind of boxing is only suitable for ordinary people to fight against ordinary people, not for practitioners to fight against practitioners. The same goes for other martial arts."

"What if that's the case?" Li Yi said, and suddenly his body moved, extending his fists.

This is the long-range attack of Tongbiquan.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two crisp explosions of punches echoed in the training ground, and the instructor Li Shudi, who was nearby, had his eardrums buzzing.

At once, many practitioners heard the noise and looked over here.

They saw Li Yi punching, but the two explosions surprised them.

What kind of punch could make such a sound? Like a thunderclap?
If this hits a person, he'll be doomed.

However, at this moment, Li Shudi opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Yi's fists in disbelief: "How is this possible? How can your fist power be condensed to this extent? Even your stance is wrong, and you don't even have Lunbi, and your strength can't be sustained. Wait, this is not Tongbi Fist at all, it's boxing. You are using the foundation of boxing to put on the posture of Tongbi Fist."

"Yes, I used the foundation of boxing to form the framework of martial arts, and then simplified it and made some improvements. Instructor, since you are a master of traditional martial arts, I would like to ask you, can this be used in actual combat?" Li Yi asked.

"You have such boxing skills as a foundation. You are extremely powerful even without practicing martial arts. It won't be a problem to use it in actual combat, but your idea reminded me."

Li Shudi seemed to have opened the door to a new world at this moment. He suddenly realized something in his mind and became excited: "If it is really based on such a terrible boxing technique, combined with the traditional martial arts posture, if it can be perfected, then isn't this a martial art suitable for practitioners?"

"Li Yi."

Suddenly, Li Shuyi grabbed his shoulder and said excitedly, "I will teach you traditional martial arts. You can learn from the strengths of other schools and create a technique suitable for practitioners based on your boxing skills."

"Instructor, I have had this idea before I came here, and I even thought of a name for it." Li Yi said, "I will name this technique the Fighting Technique."

"Fighting Art? Okay, very good, it's a good name, let's call it Fighting Art." At this moment, Li Shudi seemed to be able to see countless traditional martial arts moves appearing in Li Yi's boxing.

Although the perfected fighting skills can no longer be considered traditional martial arts, so what? The times are advancing. If martial arts cannot learn from each other's strengths and overcome their weaknesses, and update and iterate, they will sooner or later be regarded as dregs and eliminated. Rather than clinging to the past and becoming history, it is better to be bold in innovation and be reborn from the ashes.

Li Shudi is a man who spans two eras. He shoulders the responsibility of promoting traditional martial arts. He does not want to see the traditional martial arts he has practiced all his life being forgotten.

He longs for this culture to be passed on.

As an instructor, he saw hope and opportunity in the newcomer Li Yi.

"Come, I'll take you to the indoor training ground. From today on, I will teach you all the traditional martial arts, so that you can learn all the moves in the shortest time possible, and then help you simplify them and perfect your fighting skills." Li Shudi couldn't wait any longer and pulled Li Yi away.

Right now, nothing is more important than this.

"Okay." Li Yi did not refuse and agreed immediately.

But just when the two of them had taken a few steps, a voice suddenly sounded behind them.

"Wait, instructor, where are you going?"

Lu Yue grinned at this moment, striding over, his eyes burning, staring at Li Yi, as if he was re-sizing this man. "Lu Yue, I don't have time to waste with you, don't make trouble, be careful that I will cancel your training qualification." Li Shudi shouted.

Lu Yue said very seriously: "Instructor, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean to cause trouble. I just wanted to know how Li Yi made that sound just now. Li Yi, I now believe what you said just now. Your punch does seem a little unusual. Can we have some exchanges?"

"I don't have time now, let's do it later." Li Yi refused immediately.

"It's just a simple exchange, it will be quick and won't take up much of your time. If your punches are as powerful as you say, I'll be very happy." Lu Yue immediately blocked the way of both people at the same time.

Instructor Li Shudi scolded again: "Lu Yue, you have gone too far today, get out of my way."

Lu Yue had no reaction and continued to stare at Li Yi.

Li Yi frowned, "I have no grudge against you, nor are we enemies, so I don't want to use my fists on you, otherwise it will be very troublesome if something happens. Besides, I have to go to training now and don't want to waste time on such meaningless communication. I hope you can understand and stop pestering me."

“Haha, don't worry, if anything really happens, I, Lu Yue, will never blame you. I don't know how many people's limbs I have broken during sparring. They all lost because they were not as skilled as me. Although I am not convinced, I welcome them to continue challenging me. I became interested in your punch just now. If you are unwilling to practice with me today, I will not let you go.” Lu Yue grinned, with a threatening tone.

Obviously, Li Yi was completely targeted at this moment.

"I was planning to let you go, but since you want to get beaten, don't blame me for hitting you too hard today."

Li Yi didn't say much, but his body slowly sank up, and a strange boxing stance was taken out. At the same time, his eyes were shining and a murderous intent emerged.

Ok?
Lu Yue's smile suddenly disappeared, and his hair stood up inexplicably. At this moment, he seemed as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast.

"Are you ready?" Li Yi's voice was cold.

"Come." Lu Yue was ready and then shouted.

However, as soon as he finished speaking.

moment.

The ground beneath Li Yi's feet shook and cracked, and he shot out like a bullet, his speed exceeding the comprehension of a psychic practitioner.

"Is this guy kidding? Does he want to shoot me?"

Lu Yue's eyes suddenly shrank and he felt horrified. At the same time, he subconsciously put his arms together and took a defensive posture.

Block this outburst and then look for an opportunity to counterattack.

This is what Lu Yue thought in his heart.

However, the next moment, Li Yi exerted his strength in his muscles and bones, and the dragon in his spine pushed forward layer by layer. All the strength of his body gathered at one point, and he punched out.

"boom!"

The force of the fist exploded like thunder.

Lu Yue is tall and strong, and his arms are like two heavy doors trying to defend against his opponent's attacks.

However, Li Yi's fist power was too terrifying. It was twisted into a strand and was strong enough to penetrate the human body.

But he did not want to kill Lu Yue with one punch, so Li Yi's fist landed on Lu Yue's arm that was raised for defense.

As Lu Yue's tall and burly body stiffened, Li Yi stopped in front of him.

Tick!Tick!
The blood kept dripping, gradually more and more, and in the end it couldn't be stopped.

All the practitioners nearby, including instructor Li Shudi, were shocked when they saw this scene.

"Can you throw a punch like this?"

This thought popped into their minds.

However, Li Yi's fist pierced through Lu Yue's arms and embedded deeply into his chest, leaving a very scary fist mark. What was incomprehensible was that, apart from this fist mark, there were no injuries on other parts of the body nearby. It seemed that all the strength was gathered together and not dissipated at all.

Lu Yue also opened his eyes wide at this moment. A sharp pain stimulated him and kept him awake.

"You lose. If I had taken one more step just now, I would have punched you through the body and killed you instantly." Li Yi looked at him calmly, then slowly pulled back his bloody fist.

As soon as he retracted his fist, Lu Yue's arms instantly fell down weakly. Others saw that there was a large dent in his arms, and his bones were completely shattered. He couldn't even lift them up. His chest was constantly bleeding, leaving a hole. Just as Li Yi said, if he took another step forward, his chest would be completely pierced through.

Fortunately, Li Yi restrained himself and Lu Yue was only seriously injured but not in danger of life.

But even so, Lu Yue's mind was full of disbelief.

One punch.

Just one punch and you lost?
But looking at his own wounds.

It seemed that his loss from such a punch was not unfair. If he were hit again, he would definitely die.

"Wow!"

Suddenly, his injury flared up, and Lu Yue spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, all the strength in his tall body was instantly drained away, and he slowly collapsed to the ground.

He breathed heavily and tried to speak, but found that his chest was in severe pain.

"Hurry, send Lu Yue to the medical room." At this time, instructor Li Shudi reacted and shouted hurriedly.

Nearby medical staff rushed over carrying a stretcher.

Injuries are common on the training ground, so medical staff are always on standby.

"Li Yi, I lost."

Lu Yue was panting at this moment, and he endured the pain and said, "Can you tell me what kind of punch this is?"

"Fighting skills." Li Yi looked at him calmly and said, "I told you that my punches are heavy and not suitable for sparring, but you didn't believe me. Now you have to stay in the hospital for at least ten days."

"Skill? I see. I am a frog in a well. I am too self-righteous."

Lu Yue's face was a little pale at the moment, but he still forced a smile.
