Beast Tamer: The pet is just to help me build a bond

Chapter 34 Black Bear Carrying Mountains
Lin Wu wants to accept a disciple.

Unlike Po, Chen Wen is a human.

After Po learned Xingyiquan, he could only use it as a signboard to advertise the martial arts school.

Chen Wenxue learned Xingyiquan, and he can also pass on Xingyiquan.

So, after a little thought, he invited Chen Wen.

"Do you want to enter the martial arts circle? Do you want to inherit the tradition of Xingyiquan?"

Hearing Lin Wu's question, Chen Wen immediately understood his intention.

After careful consideration, Chen Wen shook his head apologetically and said, "Sorry..."

"No need to apologize, learning martial arts cannot be forced!"

Lin Wu waved his hands, but still said unwillingly: "With your talent, your future achievements will definitely be better than mine, and you may become a master of Xingyiquan..."

Chen Wen still shook his head and said, "Director Lin, thank you for your kindness, but..."

Pointing at Po and the pet in the distance, Chen Wen continued, "Times have changed!"

Lin Wu felt lost when he heard this.

Indeed, although ancient martial arts have shown some signs of revival because of Chen Fan, this era is still the era of beastmasters and pet beasts.

After all, even a master of ancient martial arts cannot defeat an epic pet.

In this era, ancient martial arts is just an emerging school used to train pet animals.

And Xingyiquan is just a larger branch of this emerging school.

Then, Chen Wen said bitterly: "More importantly... I have no money!"

"No money?"

Chen Wen sighed and said, "Given my family's situation, raising Po and supporting him in martial arts training is already a huge burden, and with me added in..."

At this point, Chen Wen shook his head.

Lin Wu was speechless. An ordinary family really couldn't afford to support one person and one pet to practice ancient martial arts.

Having said that, Lin Wu also gave up the idea of ​​accepting Chen Wen as his disciple.

He could make an exception and not charge the apprenticeship fee, but he couldn't pay Chen Wenxue to learn martial arts, right?
Not to mention that it is not a good deal to be the one who pushes forward, it is actually against the rules.

Although he did not accept Chen Wen as his apprentice, Lin Wu did not change his attitude and continued to teach A Bao and Chen Wen diligently and responsibly.

In the morning, Lin Wu taught everyone basic training.

Basic training mainly focuses on strengthening strength, practicing footwork and moves.

Strength training combines modern methods, such as bench press, squats, pull-ups, back muscle stretching, etc. The difference is that when training strength, Lin Wu will point out which muscles will exert force and what moves this force is suitable for.

The practice of footwork and moves is the foundation of Xingyiquan.

Generally speaking, only by practicing the footwork and moves well can one learn the twelve forms of Xingyiquan.

Because Po "learned by stealing", he achieved it in one step.

But according to Lin Wu, if the foundation is not solid, the whole world will shake. If you want to practice fighting, you must lay a solid foundation, understand the force techniques of the moves, and practice the moves into instinct.

It is not difficult for Po to understand the technique of exerting force in a move, but it takes time to practice the moves into instinct.

Basic training is conducted in the morning, and boxing teaching is conducted in the afternoon.

Lin Wu did not keep his skills to himself, and in the next few days he taught A Bao all the Five Elements Fist of Xingyiquan.

During this period, although Chen Wen also followed the lessons, he just demonstrated and did not practice.

He didn't lie. When there was not enough money at home, Chen Wen planned to take care of Abao first.

Of course, Chen Wen didn’t mean to treat “The Heart of Martial Arts” as a decoration, but he didn’t want to learn any moves for the time being, but only learn standing meditation and training methods.

However, even if he did not practice the moves, the consumption of the standing meditation was still very high, forcing Chen Wen to use the "bond" to share Po's "iron-eating" talent.

However, thinking that there were only a few spiritual stones, Chen Wen did not compete with A Bao for the stones. He could only take one step at a time.

……

On the last afternoon of the holiday, Lin Wu called Chen Wen aside again.

In an instant, all the students in the field cast envious and jealous glances at Chen Wen.

"After a few days of study, Po has mastered the Five Elements Fist."

Lin Wu looked at the obedient and ignorant Abao in front of him with satisfaction. If he hadn't taught him personally, he would never have believed that a pet could learn the Three Body Style, Five Elements Boxing and Bear Form of Xingyiquan in just six days.

And although Po has not yet mastered the skills, he has already reached the level of proficiency in boxing and kicking.

He finally believed that there really were martial arts geniuses in this world.

At the same time, he also had new ideas about another martial arts genius.

But now, he was going to teach Po the last lesson of the holiday.

"With the remaining half a day, I won't be able to learn all twelve forms. I thought about it..."

After a brief pause, Lin Wu said, "I decided to teach Po a fighting move."

A Bao looked at Lin Wu blankly.

Chen Wen was a little excited and said to Po, "Fighting moves are powerful attacking skills, just like the palm that Xiong Er used to slap you away that day. If you learn it, you can defeat Xiong Er."

Upon hearing this, Po's confused eyes suddenly lit up, and the flame of revenge burned in his eyes.

Seeing Po being so active, Lin Wu looked at Chen Wen curiously and asked, "Who is Xiong Er?"

Chen Wen replied briefly: "A violent bear. Po lost to it."

"What a strong competitive spirit!" Lin Wu sighed, and then said to A Bao: "Then you should study harder. My fighting style is specially designed to restrain the direct skills such as 'slap'."

"Ouch~!"

Po has already seen the scene of himself stepping on Xiong Er with one foot and eating the nectar with both hands.

Chen Wen asked curiously, "Director Lin, what is this move?"

"Cough-cough-"

After coughing twice, Lin Wu restrained his facial expression and said slowly: "In Xingyi Five Elements Fist, the chopping fist is like an axe, the collapsing fist is like an arrow, the drilling fist is like a cone, and the horizontal fist is like a beam.

Horizontal fist belongs to the earth element, which has a neutral nature and combines hardness and softness.

Xingyi bear shape is straight and unyielding, and has the strongest power.

The move I'm teaching this time is called 'Black Bear Carrying the Mountain', which is a combination of the bear form and the horizontal fist. "

Abao: (＠_＠)
Chen Wen: (＠_＠)
"I have no knowledge or skills!"

Looking at the confused Chen Wen and A Bao, Lin Wu couldn't help but scold them severely, and then explained in simple words: "Horizontal fist can attack and defend, and the bear is the most powerful. The combination of the two, 'Black Bear Carrying the Mountain' not only has a strong defense, but also has a good power..."

Listening to Lin Wu's careful explanation, Chen Wen quickly formed his own understanding of "Black Bear Carrying the Mountain".

In short, it means to aim at the enemy's attack, use the strength in your arms to block the enemy's attack, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

It sounds simple and looks simple, but it is not easy to learn.

To learn this trick, three conditions must be met.

First, you must have a pair of strong arms.

There is an old saying that a bear has the strength to raise its neck, and its strength lies in its arms. According to Lin Wu, a bear's arms are tough, thick and powerful, and after exerting their strength, they can move mountains and resist all attacks.

Although this is an exaggeration, the arms of bears are indeed broad and strong, and can withstand most attacks even without exerting strength.

Po is also a bear pet, and naturally meets the first condition. Although its two fat arms look soft, the actual situation is that its bones are tough and its skin is thick, so it can not only hit with great force, but also block heavy blows.

Second, you must learn the technique of using horizontal fist to bless your arms with internal energy (spiritual energy for pets), and also learn the technique of unloading force.

This is an extremely difficult task for other people or pets, but with the help of his martial arts talent, Po learned the techniques of exerting and releasing force in just a few minutes.

Therefore, the only difficulty left was the grasp of the blocking direction and timing.

In this regard, Lin Wu arranged special training for Abao.

When Chen Wen saw several older students leading their pets approaching, his eyelids twitched involuntarily.

In front of A Bao's horrified eyes, Lin Wu smiled and said, "Practice is the best way! Don't worry, I will show them mercy, so don't worry about being beaten to death by them."

"Yeah, I'll let my gibbon use less energy!"

"My violent bear only uses 60% of his strength!"

"..."

After listening to everyone's assurances, Abao didn't feel a bit relieved.

Po is still in its larval stage, about sixty to seventy centimeters tall, the shortest of all the pets present.

After taking a look at the size and number of the other pets, Po couldn't help but swallow and covered his panda eyes with his short hands.

Unfortunately, there is no way to avoid it!
With Chen Wen's encouragement, A Bao stepped onto the ring with a fearless attitude.

……

"Power punch!"

The gibbon swung its fist quickly, going straight through Po's arms and hitting his chest.

Bang!
Po flew backwards, rolled several times on the ring, and hit the guardrail.

……

"slap!"

Bang!
Perhaps because he was familiar with the attack, Po waved his arm to block it.

However, before he could relieve the force, Po's entire bear turned into a ball and rolled around on the ring again.

……

The pets Lin Wu selected for training had relatively good basic qualities, so Po was very passive during training and even unable to resist.

However, this training is indeed meaningful.

After repeated failures, Po's reactions became faster and faster, his blocking became more and more accurate, and his use of strength and release of force became more and more proficient.

In addition, after watching Abao being knocked away and getting up again and again, Chen Wen gradually discovered another advantage of Abao.

Thick skin and flesh.

In fact, Chen Wen had noticed this before.

When Po was fighting with Xiong Er, after being hit by Xiong Er, Po only suffered minor injuries.

As far as Chen Wen knows, if ordinary mortal-level pets do not defend themselves properly, they will generally be seriously injured and lose their combat effectiveness after being hit by the attack skills of the enemy pets.

At that time, Po's fighting will was weak, but he still had the strength to fight again.

Now Po's defense seems to have improved. He was not hurt at all after being knocked away so many times.

"what is the reason behind the scene?"

"The heart of martial arts? Or the talent of 'eating iron'?"

Chen Wen stroked his chin and guessed secretly in his heart.
