Chapter 153 Situ Yao's Trial
Chapter 153 Situ Yao's Trial
"How about it? It feels weird, right? I didn't intend for this place to become like this, but it became like this without me noticing. But now I think it's not bad."
“Is it strange? Everyone comes here because of your reputation, right? I feel like there is an order centered around you.”
"You're also a strange guy. Most people who normally just practice martial arts would frown when they see this and quickly lose interest."
Situ Yao looked at Ye Kai with surprise.
Ye Kai understood the meaning of a student calling Situ Yao "Master". He was not just a martial arts coach, but more like a mentor who showed them the world.
“How much experience do you have?”
“I’ve been doing karate for two and a half years. I don’t have any other experience.”
“Want to give it a try?”
"Is that okay? I'm not your disciple yet."
"It's okay. If it doesn't work, I'll stop it immediately. Your level is good enough. Hey, Xu Wen! Come here and compete with this guy."
The boy who came forward muttered, "Hey, is it me?" He was not satisfied. Although Situ Yao was very interested in the boy who was fighting with him, he said he did not want to be used to test the will of an outsider.
Although Ye Kai didn't wear a gi today, he wore clothes that were convenient for him to move around in. As long as he didn't focus on the opponent's skills, there shouldn't be any problem.
“He mainly practices karate. Is that okay?”
"Ok, no problem."
Facing the boy named Xu Wen, Ye Kai began to measure his opponent's strength with sweeping strikes as the center. His skills were not very good, but each strike contained a kind of sharpness. This might be derived from the kumite between different species, but Ye Kai did not understand that layer.
Xu Wen was uncomfortably aware that Ye Kai was not backing off and began to become careless. After Ye Kai dodged a blow, he quickly struck out, immobilizing Xu Wen. His blow almost touched Xu Wen's chin, and Ye Kai swung with his left elbow.
"Almost!" If Ye Kai had thrown that blow, Xu Wen's jaw might have been easily broken. Realizing this, he suddenly became angry.
"This is a place of powerful self-expression, right? So, it was your carelessness that you didn't expect this move?"
“!!”
“Stop it, Xu Wen! He’s right. You look down on your karate opponent, and that’s your fault.”
Xu Wen seemed to disagree with Ye Kai's words, but he listened to Situ Yao and retreated. Situ Yao believed that after calming down, he would realize his mistake.
(But is this guy wearing a mask, but is he a beast inside?)
Situ Yao regretted his misjudgment. So he needed to change his strategy.
"Zheng Zong! It's your turn next."
Seeing Xu Wen being subdued easily, the students at Situ Training Ground began to get excited.
"Kill him, Zheng Zong!"
“Don’t underestimate us!”
"Defeat him, Zheng Zong!"
The cheers encouraged the next competition, but Ye Kai didn't care. He believed that only by colliding his own style with theirs could he truly understand the rules here. This was the meaning of the existence of this place.
Zheng Zong held a bamboo sword. Although he was mainly a swordsman, if he only did this, he would probably suffer a great loss.
"Listen carefully, Ye Kai. Treat what Zheng Zong is holding as a real sword. It cannot be held or wielded."
"Understood."
Situ Yao had expected Ye Kai to think this way. If anything is possible here, then banning this tactic is also a possibility. But this is also wrong.
After the signal to start, a strike came forward. The thrust, which was considered taboo in young kendo, was obviously not taboo here.
The upper body swings and steps alternately to avoid, but if it is mixed with sweeping strikes, this alone cannot be used to counter it. Whether it is a sweeping strike to the face or the body, it is impossible to predict where it will be aimed.
Once you reach this point, you will fall into the long-distance control of the bamboo sword. Ye Kai was forced to retreat, and cheers for Zheng Zong came from all around. Since it was impossible to retreat all the time, he began to observe Zheng Zong's sword momentum carefully.
As the action begins, watch, each movement should show the starting point of Zheng Zong's attack. At the moment when the bamboo sword is retracted and ready for the next attack, Ye Kai switches his left half of the body to the right half, approaching his right hand that is about to swing down. His hand is not a fist, but a sword-drawing posture with the second joint folded, and the wrist is bent outward to increase the force.
"Stop! Stop here!" Situ Yao's voice came from his abdomen, stopping the two of them. They separated from each other and bowed. The order here was in good order.
"Ye Kai, do you want to break Zheng Zong's wrist?"
"If it was a real sword, there would be no way to ensure it was brought down without doing this."
"...I think I finally understand you." Situ Yao breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his brows: "You feel that your skills are not enough, so you want to break through in a more radical way, right?"
“Yes, I think what I lack in determination I make up for.”
"…………" Situ Yao scratched his head, then said: "I understand. I will provide the technology. So you don't need to do this anymore, understand?"
"Thank you." Ye Kai realized that he had found someone who was willing to stop him.
"Come to the training ground tomorrow."
In this way, Ye Kai entered Situ Yao's training ground.
--------------
After returning home, Ye Kai told his mother that he had found a new training ground and she was very happy. She was worried that Ye Kai might have nowhere to go, and now he could finally pay Situ Yao's monthly fee. Ye Kai thought that for Situ Yao's kindness, he also needed to repay with sincerity.
He then checked Situ Yao's situation on the computer in the living room. His achievements and legendary stories interested Ye Kai. He felt that Situ Yao would become a new mentor worthy of respect.
"Do you still plan to continue fighting?" Ye Li asked.
"Well, I'm going to be less at home again. Sorry."
"It doesn't matter. You'll be bullied anyway, you're just a piece of shit, right?"
"It should be fine. I'm sorry for making you worry."
“I’m not worried. I just don’t want to embarrass myself somewhere else.”
Ye Li sneered and left, but Ye Kai thought she was cute.
Whether it is his parents, Ye Li, or Ye Yue, he wants to protect them. This is the power that Master Situ Yao will give him.
Next, it depends on Ye Kai’s efforts.
----------
Situ Yao's teachings were quite strict. If you slack off a bit, your fists will pierce your body mercilessly. Although you have adjusted yourself sufficiently, the pain is still real.
If you hesitate, the next punch will surely come. Shake off the pain, raise your eyes, and attack again.
“Do you find it hard?”
“It hurts. But if it doesn’t hurt, I won’t feel the pain next time. I think this is good.”
