Martial Arts Cultivation is a process of climbing upwards; if you encounter a problem at any point, youāll be stuck in place.
"Grandfather, I want to enter the Damp Realm. I want to break through to Third Grade before the university entrance."
Du Jingās Book gritted his teeth.
He had already made up his mind.
"Good!"
Grandfather didnāt say much more.
The appearance of Su Yue isnāt necessarily a bad thing.
Du Jingās Book is still young.
The earlier he understands certain principles, the more beneficial it will be for his future growth.
...
Early the next morning.
Su Yue arrived at Sima Linglingās villa bright and early.
"Have you decided what kind you want to learn?
"Actually, I saw your performance at the new student assembly. I think your sword skills can attack groups, but the attack power is somewhat insufficient.
"You young hot-blooded types must want to choose attack enhancement, right?"
Sima Lingling laughed.
This is also the choice of most people.
Attack power is the primary aspect to enhance.
"As a Martial Artist fighting on the front lines of the Damp Realm, attack power is indeed the most important.
"Therefore, I choose the defense type... I think life is more important, haha."
Su Yue had already decided yesterday.
Attack power.
Speed.
Theyāre important too.
But compared to my own life, theyāre trivial.
My life is most important.
"You... alright.
"In this regard, youāre not very different from your father."
Sima Lingling looked at Su Yue and finally sighed.
She never expected that Su Yue would have such a cautious personality.
The Su Qingfeng of the past, wherever it was deep waters, thatās where heād go, as if seeking death.
"Thank you, teacher."
Su Yue thanked her.
After that, Sima Lingling maneuvered her Qi Blood to begin imparting it to Su Yue.
The method of impartation is similar to that in the nursing homes for the elderly, yet fundamentally different in speed.
Slow.
Too slow.
Although the enhancement department doesnāt have the curse pain Su Yue experienced, someone elseās Qi Blood torturing oneself is still quite painful.
Su Yue was going insane.
No wonder no one chooses the enhancement department.
Learning a battle technique requires endless torture.
Itās basically like cutting flesh with a blunt knife.
"Su Yue, if the pain becomes too much, let us know and we can stop for a break."
Sima Lingling reminded.
"Eh... we can take breaks midway?"
Su Yue was stunned.
"Of course.
"Qi Blood impartation takes about five hours. For someone like you, a First Grade Martial Artist, you can hold out for half an hour at most; without breaks, itās impossible to succeed.
"For transmission-type battle techniques, itās generally possible to take breaks midway. As I drive the Qi Blood, it will imprint on you, and stopping midway wonāt erase the imprint."
Sima Lingling said.
"I see, understood."
Su Yue nodded.
Once again, he found himself ignorant.
"Remember, if it becomes unbearable, donāt push yourself too hard."
Sima Lingling advised again.
She clasped Su Yueās shoulders, continuously channeling Qi Blood into him.
Half an hour later.
"Su Yue, can you still hold on? If you can persist, try to; repeated breaks will hinder your future mastery."
Sima Lingling estimated the time and quickly reminded him.
"Teacher, letās continue."
Su Yue nodded.
Having endured many storms, this little pain is nothing.
An hour later.
"Su Yue, can you still endure it?"
Sima Lingling admired Su Yue a bit.
This kid didnāt even frown, truly a promising talent.
"Teacher, please continue."
Su Yue was expressionless.
Having endured much pain, his skin had gotten thicker.
Am I a tank?
Two hours later.
"Su Yue, are you sure youāre okay? Donāt push beyond your limits; if youāre at your limit, take a break."
Sima Lingling was covered in sweat.
She thought Su Yue couldnāt endure anymore.
"Teacher, Iām fine, please continue."
However.
Su Yue remained unfazed, just like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water.
This is nothing yet.
Iāve still got room until I reach my limit.
Sima Lingling was somewhat shaken.
After the third hour.
"Su Yue, do you really not need a break? If you overdo it, it could lead to a mental breakdown."
Sima Linglingās arms trembled.
This kid, why arenāt you resting yet?
"Teacher, I can still endure, please continue."
Nonetheless, Su Yueās words almost drove Sima Lingling to madness.
Is this still a person?
Fourth hour.
"Su Yue, let me remind you again: you must rest now; otherwise, youāll collapse."
Sima Linglingās voice was trembling.
"Teacher, I have a will of steel, please continue."
Su Yue kept his focus steady.
His goal was to learn thoroughly in one go.
No need to rest.
"I know you youngsters care about face, but measure your strength; donāt push yourself just for pride. Iām warning you, itās dangerous."
Sima Linglingās tone grew anxious.
These days, do young people disregard their lives to show off?
Four hours have passed.
Your iron will, is it a joke to you?
"Teacher, I know my limits."
Su Yue took a deep breath, his words were solemn.
"No, I need to rest. Iāve never held on this long; Iām a bit exhausted."
However.
This time, it was Sima Lingling who broke down first.
Donāt you understand to consider your teacher?
Iām using Qi Blood to imprint on you. Itās mentally exhausting. If I keep going, Iāll lose my mind.
And donāt you have pain receptors?
Iāve taught several classes, and no one has ever lasted two hours.
Youāre defying the odds.
Alright, you win.
