Previously on Online: I Can See Health Bars...
"Instructor Diao, on my side..."
Nanyuan En had been brewing this for a long time, finally speaking out the most important matter of the day.
The Chief Instructor, teaching other people at the martial arts training ground, was just an aside.
The real task was to instruct him, the heir of the Nanyuan Family!
Fang Yu understood this was something he couldn’t evade, but...
"Are we starting the training here?"
"Of course not, Instructor Diao, come with me, I have another venue."
Nanyuan En smiled.
This is a public martial arts training ground; as the young master of the Nanyuan Family, he naturally has another venue, more comfortable, with better conditions for training.
Nanyuan En started to lead, Fang Yu followed, while Nanyuan Shiran walked behind them, quietly following.
Fang Yu curiously turned back to glance at him, and Nanyuan Shiran immediately respectfully saluted Fang Yu.
"You..."
"My grandfather asked me to also follow Instructor Diao for martial arts training."
Nanyuan Rong.
Images of a previous sparring match with Nanyuan Rong, the old man with 9000 blood points, flashed through Fang Yu’s mind, and he slightly nodded, considering it as acceptance.
The departure of the three naturally caught Nanyuan Wujiang’s attention at the martial arts training ground.
"Lord Wujiang, I see the new Chief Instructor; his background isn’t small."
Next to him, an assistant instructor, previously a trusted subordinate, leaned in to say.
Nanyuan Wujiang glanced sideways at the guy.
When he couldn’t raise his head in front of Nanyuan En earlier, this guy didn’t come forward to support him becoming the Chief Instructor again.
Now that the dust has settled, this opportunist is coming over to stir the pot.
Seeing Nanyuan Wujiang’s indifferent attitude, not even speaking, the assistant instructor hurriedly closed his mouth with tact and retreated slowly.
...
"Instructor Diao, my current focus is on the set Sword Art of the Hidden Dragon and Striking Serpent, let me demonstrate it to you first."
Upon reaching the exclusive training grounds, Nanyuan En immediately couldn’t wait to speak.
What could Fang Yu say? Of course, he slightly nodded.
Then, Nanyuan En began to wield the sword art, like a performance.
Each move was executed meticulously, and the speed of wielding the sword art was slowed down countless times, slowly displaying each detail accurately.
Thus, having watched for about ten minutes, Nanyuan En withdrew the sword.
After slightly adjusting his breath, Nanyuan En cast an expectant gaze towards him.
"How does Instructor Diao find my sword art? Are there any areas for improvement?"
Asking me? Are you asking me?
I’ve only seen the sword technique once; what could I discern from it...
Besides, what I am familiar with are all my own cultivation techniques and moves.
With the help of the system, he is adept at his own martial arts, able to grasp it immediately, using it as if he has practiced it for years.
But beyond his own techniques, there’s not much room for expansion, and he doesn’t even have teaching experience...
However, just to blend in superficially, he can manage.
"Every move is spirited and good. As for improvements... the swordsmanship of the Nanyuan Family, accumulated over the years, I, an outsider, cannot offer any meaningful advice."
Kidding, considering you accompanied me to the library; what level is your swordsmanship, isn’t it one of those top-grade cultivation techniques on the fourth floor of the Nanyuan Family? Would I not know?
Without the accumulation of those foundational martial arts of the Nanyuan Family, just wielding the Sword Art of the Hidden Dragon and Striking Serpent, never mind hurting the enemy, it’s good if it doesn’t harm oneself.
The swordsmanship may appear plain and simple, but once hit, you’ll be poisoned!
"Instructor Diao praises too generously, our Nanyuan Family’s martial arts, although profound, are not flawless; there are many gaps and shortcomings that require more people to continually patch and summarize, only then can it gradually perfect itself."
After a pause, Nanyuan En continued: "Since Instructor Diao does not see any obvious weaknesses, I shall switch a few more techniques for your guidance."
This time, without waiting for Fang Yu’s response, he began to demonstrate his martial arts again.
This continuous display was like showcasing the depth of Nanyuan En’s martial arts, one cultivation technique followed by another, without pausing after finishing the previous set, immediately starting the demonstration of the next technique.
If Fang Yu didn’t have some insight, he almost got confused.
After all, the previous was swordsmanship, the latter was also swordsmanship, only differing in style and moves; without explanation, it truly was a bit hard to distinguish, one might mistakenly think it was merely a change in moves.
After performing seven or eight sets of Martial Arts techniques, Nanyuan En slowly retracted his moves.
However, Fang Yu was aware that this was probably not Nanyuan En’s limit, and he likely had other Martial Arts techniques that he hadn’t demonstrated, just like the nearly ten sets of Cultivation Techniques that he himself possessed.
Even though those Cultivation Techniques were essentially unused, having them there meant they were still Cultivation Techniques and counted as such.
"Instructor Diao, these are the main Martial Arts techniques I currently use. There are also some special Martial Arts that I will demonstrate to Instructor Diao another day."
No matter how many you demonstrate, it won’t matter, since I can’t teach much... No, wait, if I’m willing to invest the attribute points and learn all those Cultivation Techniques of yours, raising them to the Cultivation Technique Level appropriate for this realm, guiding you would be as easy as drinking water.
The problem is, you from the Nanyuan Family start learning from low-level techniques and progress one by one. How many attribute points would be wasted on that?
It can only be said that the benefits offered by the Nanyuan Family have yet to reach the point where Fang Yu is willing to exchange a large number of attribute points.
Although he knew in his heart that he probably couldn’t maintain this facade of a fake instructor for much longer, on the surface, Fang Yu remained very composed.
"Like father like son! The few Martial Arts techniques mastered by Young Master Nanyuan are the crème de la crème, and they are so well practiced that he needs no further guidance. If I were to intervene rashly, it would be inappropriate and might disrupt Young Master’s Martial Arts Training rhythm."
"Is that so..."
Nanyuan En stroked his chin.
In fact, he also felt that letting an outsider guide his family’s inherited Martial Arts was somewhat rash. However, if the other party’s ability was high enough, it might not be impossible.
It seems now that both he and his father, Nanyuan Xian, have been a bit too optimistic.
However, it’s also possible that Instructor Diao was just being modest. Perhaps he couldn’t guide now because he was unfamiliar, but once he became familiar, he naturally would see things more clearly and provide targeted guidance.
Thinking of this, Nanyuan En’s initially restless mood calmed down, and he slowly spoke.
"Instructor Diao, we are not in a hurry. We have plenty of time. Since there’s no immediate progress in the Martial Arts techniques, why don’t we go straight to actual combat? I ask Instructor Diao to spar with me for a few moves?"
A fight!
Now that’s something I’m good at!
Fang Yu immediately perked up.
He may not be able to pretend to be anything else, but his combat ability was real.
"Alright, then I’ll hold back a bit in strength with my moves, be careful."
Nanyuan En laughed.
"Instructor Diao, you must be careful not to get overwhelmed suddenly; my life may not withstand a single blow from you."
What Nanyuan En said was a joke, but the fact is... it was the truth.
A single blow from Fang Yu could indeed take him down in a second.
The two began to exchange moves.
Nanyuan En was the one who took the initiative. He showcased all his Martial Arts skills he had just practiced, rotating between them from fists and kicks to sword techniques, from sword techniques to Qi Force moves, Qinggong methods, and even long-range Hidden Weapon assaults, each technique used once.
However.
Defeat!
Defeat! Defeat! Defeat! Defeat! Defeat! Defeat!
Within three moves, Nanyuan En was inevitably beaten!
Nanyuan En initially maintained a light and carefree smile, respectfully saying ’I’ve learned.’
But gradually, he became silent and spoke less and less.
By now, his whole body was heavily breathing, his eyes red, looking as if he was running a powerful Cultivation Technique.
"Instructor Diao, please be careful!!"
With a burst of a shout, Nanyuan En charged directly at Fang Yu.
His entire body erupted like thunder, instantly rushing to Fang Yu’s front, and with a burst of a shout, thrust out a sword!
Whoosh!
This meteor-like sword, considered his trump card, was characterized by absolute speed. It rendered useless simply because Fang Yu stepped back three precise steps in milliseconds, avoiding it easily.
The sword’s edge came so close to Fang Yu’s chest, nearly brushing Fang Yu’s skin.
But that was the limit of the full power Nanyuan En could exert with this sword move.
Pushing forward would still have power, but it would no longer be the power of the sword technique, just pure brute force.
"Why, why..."
Nanyuan En felt extreme frustration; this move of his had even worked on the former Chief Instructor Nanyuan Wujiang, surprising him greatly, with a scar still left on his chest!
The result this time...
It was as if he had been toyed with, this precision in distance control beyond comprehension was almost unacceptable to him.
"Your Qi Force flow is too intense. Any expert, upon sensing the strong flow of Qi around you, would deduce your attack direction and distance. It’s just that the stronger one’s ability, the more precise the control over these two aspects is. And I am just a little bit stronger than you, Young Master."
