Chapter 4 Practice Lessons
Afternoon is practice class, the energy of the students is obviously much better than in the morning.
Compared with boring cultural knowledge, students are more interested in spiritual practice—although most of them will not even be able to take the final exam.
There are three items in the practice class, which correspond to the foundational exercises of the three major sects.
The Blazing Sun Palm of the Nine Suns Sect!
The stormy waves of the Stormy Waves Sect!
The Catkin Palm of the Cyan Frost Sect!
According to the type of exercises practiced, students can only choose one of the practice courses.
Zheng Hongsheng, Xu Yuan, and Lin Shen are all practicing Chiyang Palm, so all three of them took the same course.
In the spacious and bright gymnasium.
The students spread out, each concentrated on practicing the Chiyang Palm, practicing the palm routines one by one.
As a lecturer, Kong Hong patrolled the crowd, giving guidance from time to time and correcting students' mistakes.
"Don't use brute force blindly, experience the strength of the body, and correct it at any time."
"Arms, chest, waist and abdomen, and even thighs, every muscle in the body must work hard and participate in the exertion of force."
"When you can integrate qi and blood into the palm technique, and there will be blazing heat waves when the palm force is running, this technique will be considered to have reached the level of proficiency!"
Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuanqi curled their lips together.
Proficient?
In the entire Huailiu Academy, not counting the children of those aristocratic families, those who can reach the level of proficiency in Chiyang Palm can be counted on one hand.
Lin Shen didn't care about the small movements of the two of them, he practiced Chiyang Palm wholeheartedly, completely immersed in his own world.
The Chiyang Palm is the same as the Zhengyuan Breathing Technique, it can have the effect of tempering the body.
It's just that the two are still and move, and the Chiyang Palm is more inclined to fight, and the tempering effect on the body is not as obvious as the Zhengyuan Breathing Technique.
Because of this, Lin Shen has devoted most of his energy to practicing Zhengyuan Breathing Technique so far, so that the Blazing Yang Palm is still only an entry-level one.
But this is also the norm for most students.
Hoo! call!
In the gymnasium, the wind of fists roared endlessly, sometimes accompanied by the sound of piercing through the air.
Kong Hong walked slowly among the crowd, his eyes wandering.
Suddenly.
He paused for a moment, stopped at Lin Shen who was not far away, and let out a low sigh.
"Pneumatic four-story!"
As a long-breathing realm practitioner and a teacher for many years, Kong Hong's eyesight is naturally not covered.
Only from Lin Shen's subtle exertion movements, he could see that Lin Shen's physical body had already reached the fourth level of aerodynamics.
"I remember that in class yesterday, Lin Shen was only on the third floor of pneumatics." Kong Hong's eyes flashed with surprise.
At this time, Lin Shen had completed a complete set of palm techniques, and the clothes on his upper body were already soaked in sweat, and a faint white mist rose from his exposed neck and arms.
Call out the panel and see that the progress of Blazing Sun Palm is still '57% of entry level', without any increase.
Lin Shen was not discouraged either.
According to past experience, he has to practice six or seven palms on average to increase his progress by 1%.
Although the speed is far inferior to the avatar, the daily practice still cannot be relaxed.
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. Although my talent is a bit weak, as long as I persevere, I can always improve.
"Just broke through last night?"
Suddenly a gentle voice came from his ear, Lin Shen turned his head and saw that Kong Hong came to him at some point, looking at him with a smile.
"Yes, teacher." Lin Shen nodded.
Hearing this, Kong Hong had a deep smile on his face and patted him on the shoulder.
"Not bad, keep up the good work!"
Not counting the children of rich families who came from aristocratic families, the cultivation base of the fourth level of aerodynamics is enough to be called outstanding among ordinary students.
Especially Kong Hong also knew that Lin Shen was an orphan born in an orphanage. His family was poor and he had few cultivation resources.
After a few words of encouragement to Lin Shen, Kong Hong turned around and continued his inspection.
As soon as he left, Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuan immediately came over with surprise on their faces.
"Amazing, Lin Shen, you actually broke through to the fourth floor of pneumatics!"
Xu Yuan couldn't hide his envy in his eyes.
For ordinary students, the pneumatic fourth floor is already a great achievement.
Facing the envious and surprised eyes of the two, Lin Shen just shook his head slightly.
"Still a long way to go."
Compared to his expectations for the future, the aerodynamic four-layer is just a small improvement.
Lin Shen’s words came from the heart, but Xu Yuan and the others only thought that he was being modest, and didn’t take it seriously.
"I have to work harder to cultivate, and I must break through to the fourth level of aerodynamics before the big exam!" Xu Yuan said seriously.
He thinks that his talent is much better than Lin Shen. Since the latter can break through to the fourth level of aerodynamics so quickly, he can definitely do it too.
Zheng Hongsheng's eyes also flickered.
In the past, when the three of them were all three layers of aerodynamics, it was okay, and no one was better than the other.
But now that Lin Shen was one step ahead, his competitive spirit was immediately aroused.
Among the three present, his talent is the best, otherwise he would not be able to cultivate to the third level of aerodynamics like Xu Yuan and Lin Shen after three days of fishing and two days of drying the net.
As long as I practice as hard as Lin Shen, I will soon reach the fourth level of aerodynamics, even surpassing Lin Shen!
Seeing the changes in their expressions, Lin Shen guessed what they were thinking after a little thought, but he didn't care.
While they were chatting, the two avatars were cultivating in his mind.
With the avatar present, his cultivation efficiency is already so high that it is difficult for ordinary people to achieve!
When get out of class was about to end, Kong Hong clapped his hands to attract the students' attention.
"Okay, stop for a while, come and gather!"
Waiting for the students to stand in line, Kong Hongcai coughed lightly and said loudly:
"I would like to inform everyone that on the 15th of next month, the college will hold a competition. Only third-year students can sign up to participate. Students who get the top ten places will get generous rewards!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion among the students present.
Immediately someone raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, what is the reward?"
Kong Hong didn't want to tantalize people, so he simply said:
"The reward for the first place is a bottle of Zhengyuan Pill, the reward for the second to fourth place is six Zhengyuan Pills, and the reward for the fifth to tenth place is three Zhengyuan Pills."
The crowd suddenly burst into an uproar.
"I'm going, Zhengyuan Dan?!"
"The academy is doing too much!"
"What a generous reward!"
Many students' eyes lit up.
Lin Shen was also moved.
As can be seen from the name, Zhengyuan Pill is a elixir that assists in the cultivation of Zhengyuan Breathing Technique, which can greatly increase the efficiency of Zhengyuan Breathing Technique and promote the tempering of the physical body.
Although it is just a low-level elixir, it is no different from a luxury to ordinary people.
The price of Zhengyuan Dan on the market is 5,000 spirit coins, which is almost equivalent to the income of an ordinary white-collar worker for more than a month—you must know that Lin Shen’s monthly subsidy is only 800 spirit coins.
A bottle of Zhengyuan Dan contains 12 pieces, worth 60,000 Lingcoins, which is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for the students present.
Even Zheng Hongsheng, who is from a wealthy family, couldn't help being moved when he heard the content of the award.
But immediately, he shook his head in frustration.
"The rewards are generous, but it is not easy to get the top ten rankings. With those children from the family, there is no way for ordinary students like us to get the rewards."
"That's not necessarily true!" Xu Yuan snorted, "Those guys don't care about this reward. They didn't know how many Zhengyuan pills they had eaten since they were young. I guess they won't participate in this competition!"
"That's true, those guys have always looked above the top. But even so, with so many masters in the third grade, the possibility of us getting top ten is not high."
Now Xu Yuan has nothing to say.
Not counting the children of the aristocratic families, there are more than ten graduating classes in the third grade of Huailiu College, and there are at least seven or eight students who have reached the fifth floor and above, and there are thirty or forty students in the fourth floor. With the strength of the third level, it is almost impossible to enter the top ten.
Lin Shen has a little hope, but it's not too much.
"Zhengyuan Pill?"
Lin Shen's eyes flickered slightly.
Obviously, this sparring match should be the last benefit that the academy gives graduates before the big exam, especially ordinary students.
There are still two months before the final exam. If you can get the Zhengyuan Pill, even if there are only three, you may be able to break through another level in your cultivation!
There is no doubt that this sparring match is a rare opportunity.
This is especially true for Lin Shen who is extremely short of cultivation resources.
"Is the 15th of next month still nearly a month away!"
Lin Shen pursed his lips, already thinking about it.
No matter what, you must get Zhengyuan Dan!
