"In order for a swordsman's attack to be effective, it mainly depends on two aspects, the first is the swordsman himself, which can be attributed to internal causes; The second is to look at what the target of the attack is, and the way to connect the two, that is, the swordsman's movements, which is the so-called move. ”

What Ryoma said seemed to be a bit like nonsense, but in fact it was nonsense for ordinary swordsmen, but since he told Qiubai again, it showed that it was really not nonsense.

"Qiubai, for you, from the perspective of the overall consciousness, it seems a little biased to focus on the inside and neglect the outside."

Compared with teaching Qiubai how to go and how to do one move, Ryoma is explaining something more essential...... Merely turning the other person into a copy of oneself from the "form" is something that only the most clumsy instructor would do.

However, Qiubai didn't understand the meaning of the other party's words for a while.

This has nothing to do with whether his intelligence level and comprehension are defective, he just didn't react to the question of which side Ryoma said again.

At this time, the two of them stood indoors, and Ain knelt a little further behind Qiubai...... Ryoma's house has been transformed into a simple kendo hall.

Seeing that Qiu Bai was a little confused, Ryoma decided to actually operate it to explain, and he hung a roll of grass for sword practice on the ground, and then stretched out his hand to Qiu Bai.

Qiu Bai naturally understood, the slender blade appeared in his hand, and then he took out a single sword, and it was very simple to break the straw mat in two.

Ryoma looked at him and didn't say anything, except to replace the grass sweep with a hardwood stake as thick.

But this also did not hinder Qiu Bailai, the lower half of the stake did not move, and the upper half fell to the ground after Qiu Bai's knife slashed, he didn't seem to have any problems, except for a little ......

"The power of your swing has increased." Ryoma said.

"Yes."

"Why?"

“……”

Qiubai blinked, do you still need to ask why?

"Because the things cut are different, the stakes are much harder."

"So, why is there such a judgment that 'if you cut something hard, you need to use more force'?"

"...... this, hey, isn't that the case? Is there any deviation in Qiubai's common sense?

"That's what makes you unique, and it's your basic way of thinking as a swordsman...... Relying too much on your wrist strength. If used in a proper way, it is clear that the same force can be used to chop wood or split stones and gold. ”

As he spoke, Ryoma pulled out the autumn water and stroked it lightly, and then the straw mat split in two, and then he cut the stake in exactly the same way, and compared to the two, he really didn't have any afterburner.

Now Qiubai finally understood what Ryoma was talking about.

Whether it's a habit or a blind spot in his personal thinking, he never thought that he could operate like this before.

And for Qiubai, although he is not conscious, it is a fact that he relies too much on his wrist strength, no matter what he wants to cut, he has always been the supremacy of strength.

He even did this kind of thing "slashing iron", but he definitely slashed wildly, and there was no thrill of a quick slash - fundamentally, although there was no embodiment of his body at all, he actually followed the path of a "mad swordsman".

That is, compared to looking for the opponent's weaknesses, Qiubai is more accustomed to strengthening himself, and then facing off against the strongest part of the opponent. This is his habit of doing things, and at the same time, it also more deeply reflects some personal personality problems, and it is okay to barely say that the sword is like his heart.

If you use a more concise, water-free, colloquial, scientific and logical language to explain it, that is...... Qiubai likes to be tough.

If something is chopping with a ton of force, he will habitually increase the force to two tons, rather than seeking to solve the problem more delicately with the power of one ton.

This is Autumn White, a kaolin flower that blooms on the cliff...... That is, strange in the academic sense.

He doesn't deliberately ignore the other party's weaknesses, but he is used to staring at the opponent's strongest place, if he is facing such an enemy, the other party's strong words, then Qiubai will habitually think of "He is strong, he is strong, I have to be stronger than him".

This is not a question of swordsmanship, but a more basic and deeper problem of combat thinking beyond swordsmanship, and if you continue to fight in this way of thinking, there are very likely two situations...... Either directly knock the enemy over, or be cleanly put down by the opponent.

There will always be a time when you hit a hard stone.

Of course, this may also be related to Qiubai's lack of actual combat experience, even without Ryoma's teaching, after a long time and more experience, he will begin to realize the problem in this regard.

However, the meaning of the existence of the instructor is this, perhaps it is most appropriate for students to self-discover, self-analyze, and self-grow, but Ryoma obviously does not have that much time.

After these words, Qiubai suddenly felt that the toilet hole was open...... He still felt a little ashamed of being seen through, but he knew it very clearly, so he hurriedly commanded the girl who was watching from the side:

"Ain, hurry up and take notes."

Ain glanced at Qiu Bai, although this was only a separate guide for him, but she directly sorted out the notes as requested...... She had a hunch that even if she wrote it down, Qiubai would never look at it a second time, and there was always a feeling that the note would become wet soon.

Ryoma ignored Akihaku's words to Ain, and he continued, "Perceiving weaknesses and looking for weaknesses is one of the foundations of swordsmanship, and it is also the basic requirement for swordsmen. It is rumored that a swordsman who can reach the pinnacle can 'listen to everything', but unfortunately I have never reached that state......"

"However, there is nothing wrong with turning this practice, which emphasizes the essence, energy, and spirit of the swordsman, into 'listening to all things......

This statement made Qiu Bai stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, so he then said, "Yes...... Is it domineering? ”

“……”

"You know 'domineering'?"

Well, Qiubai was a little anxious, he was still too far away from that level.

Does Qiubai know domineering? In fact, it should be counted as not knowing, "I only know that everyone contains a strange power called 'domineering', and the rest is unknown." ”

This should be a fact, if he knew how to be domineering, he would have started practicing a long time ago.

"Let's talk about the domineering thing later, let's talk about the problem at hand first......" Ryoma muttered slightly, and then changed his words, "But since you mentioned this, let's compare and explain." ”

"For the time being, the technique of finding weaknesses is called 'listening to everything', and its focus is on the word 'feeling' itself, which is simply 'listening', and as for what you call 'seeing and hearing domineering', it is feeling and then reacting, that is, instantaneous 'feedback' is particularly important, so the two are not on the same level."

It has nothing to do with domineering, and what Ryoma said is very different from the rumored One Piece's "listening to the voice of all things".

Qiu Bai is undoubtedly more interested in the magical power of domineering, but he still understands the truth that speed is not enough, and first making up for his long-term shortcomings is the top priority at present.

"So now your next assignment is...... Break stones with the power of broken wood. ”

"Or simply to be more direct, cut the stone with half of the strength you originally needed, and then repeat with a quarter of the strength after you have done it, and then you will have the next step of cultivation." Ryoma said.

"I don't have much time, but I can only teach things one by one, so ...... Whether you can learn what you want to learn or not is up to you. "Although I don't know where Akibaku heard about domineering, and he is quite interested in that kind of high-level power, Ryoma will not skip the middle teaching session.

That's not going to be skipped.

Hearing what the other party said, Qiu Bai's face was a little bitter, this requirement is really a bit high, in such a short time, it is almost impossible for him to clear the customs.

"About this practice at the moment...... Any tips? ”

Qiu Bai rubbed his hands and said with some flattery.

It must be none.

Ryoma didn't bother with him at all, but directly started teaching another student...... Although it seems that Ain is only an add-on, since he has decided to teach, Ryoma has no bias.

The pressure is on Qiubai alone, so ...... What are you doing in a daze? He ran straight out and chopped stones.
