As a result, after Su Yueâs next words, Jia Weisu wished he could pin Su Yue to the ground and rub him right now.
You, a not-yet-20-year-old freshman, actually think about rubbing a Fifth Grade onto the ground. Why donât you pluck the moon to play with instead?
If it were that easy for you to rub against the ground, my decades of training would have been a waste.
Poof!
Poof!
Poof!
Stuffing his face with three cans of meat, Su Yue was covered in grease.
Although the taste was so-so, it was still better than dry and bitter pills.
"Uncle Jia, any news on the exceptional battle techniques I asked you to look into?"
On the Martial Arts Network, there arenât many exceptional battle techniques.
So, Su Yue entrusted Jia Weisu to help inquire about some speed and body technique battle arts.
He specifically requested exceptional battle techniques.
Common techniques can be practiced by everyone; they donât highlight oneâs unique style.
Moreover, Su Yue understood.
The reason why common techniques are widespread is because they are simple.
Simple techniques often arenât very powerful or outstanding.
By level hierarchy, the strongest techniques are undoubtedly the unrivaled battle arts.
These canât even be passed down.
Exceptional battle techniques come next; they require a Martial Artist to expend Qi Blood for single transmission, imposing high demands on both the transmitter and the receiver.
And exceptional techniques are flashy and boast strange abilities.
As for common battle techniques, they are the sums of generations of human Martial Artistsâ experiencesâmost effective and straightforward, accessible to all for cultivation.
Su Yue did not look down on common battle techniques.
He merely found exceptional battle techniques more peculiar.
"I found one book, but its effects are rather bizarre, and I donât really recommend you learn it."
Jia Weisu frowned, unsure if he should say anything further.
"Uncle Jia, just say it. I dare to train in any battle technique."
Seeing Jia Weisuâs hesitant expression, Su Yue impatiently said.
"To be honest, this technique is quite compatible with your specialty. Itâs an augmenting battle technique, but not in the traditional sense of augmentationâit only augments yourself, ineffective on others.
"But... the augmenting condition is a bit unconventional.
"You know thereâs a Baihui Acupoint on top of the head, right?"
Jia Weisu asked.
"Yes, I know."
This is basic common knowledge. The Baihui Acupoint is an important transit point when circulating Qi rings.
"Uncle Jia, does this technique require training the Baihui Acupoint? I wonât end up turning into a fool, would I?"
Su Yue then asked in surprise.
If it affects the brain, better not practice it. Donât want to end up being an idiot.
"Not at all, the Baihui Acupoint is just a point, with no direct connection to the brain region. Itâs merely a transit station for the Qi ring.
"And it has nothing to do with your own Baihui Acupoint..."
Jia Weisu continued.
"If itâs not related to the Baihui Acupoint, why bring it up? Gave me a scare."
Su Yue already gobbled down a big pig knuckle.
"This technique is called Baihui Step.
"You need to run on othersâ heads, using the battle techniqueâs Qi whirl under your feet to absorb Qi Blood from othersâ Baihui Acupoints.
"Once youâve stepped on 20 Baihui Acupoints with Qi Blood, for a while after that, no matter what type of footwork battle technique you use, it will augment your speed by 20%.
"Didnât you train in speed augmentation?
"This can be stacked.
"If youâve stepped on 20 heads with Baihui Step and then use a speed-support battle technique, you can gain 40% speed. Then using this 40% extra speed, when you perform the Little Lingbo Step, you become a ghostly shadowâI reckon no one below Third Grade can touch the hem of your clothes."
Jia Weisu briefly introduced Baihui Step.
Su Yue was somewhat astounded.
Stepping on othersâ heads, using the Qi whirl underfoot to absorb Qi Blood from othersâ Baihui Acupoints to achieve a 20% speed increase.
It sounds rather dangerous.
"Uncle Jia, canât we step on other places? Like on peopleâs feet or something."
Su Yue pondered and asked.
Stepping on someoneâs foot could still warrant an apology.
Stepping on a head leaves no room for explanation.
"Baihui Step... as the name implies, you have to step on the Baihui Acupoint."
Jia Weisu shook his head, rejecting Su Yueâs idea.
"Will it leave others with brain damage or something?"
Su Yue asked again.
"No, just a bit of mild pain, similar to snapping your fingers against someoneâs forehead.
"When you perform Baihui Step, your body is actually in a floating state, so your body weight doesnât press on the head youâre stepping on.
"Of course, there will still be some tingling in the Baihui Acupoint, but no side effects.
"Also, there will be a shockwave waking up, and if the one being stepped on has a lot of dandruff, it will scatter.
"The stepped-on mostly endures some psychological humiliation."
Jia Weisu further explained.
"Can we step on other races and beasts? Any rank requirements?"
Su Yue asked again.
"Sure, donât say other races, even fierce beasts can be stepped on.
"The Baihui Acupoint is a general term representing the peak of Qi Blood, not exclusive to humans. So even fierce beasts have Baihui Acupoints.
"There are no rank requirements; you can step on a First Grade. If youâre daring, try it on Ninth Grade."
Jia Weisu said.
"Iâll learn it... how many credits do I need?"
Su Yue thought it over, deciding to learn it under the philosophy of having more skills never being a burden.
But if itâs too expensive, heâd have to think about it.
Thereâs no way around it.
This technique really begs for a beating.
Relying on stepping on othersâ heads to increase speed feels a bit annoying.
Su Yue recalled many martial arts films from the Ancient Era wherein many martial arts masters seemed to enjoy stepping on othersâ heads and causing chaos in the streets.
