At dawn, the sky had just dawned, revealing a glimmer of light. Ye Chen experienced the excitement of yesterday, almost did not fall asleep, woke up as soon as it was dawn, spent a few copper plates in the academy cafeteria to buy five large meat buns and ate them all, and then came to the empty martial arts training school, ready to practice martial arts.

It was still very early, and there were already dozens of students in the entire martial arts training school, practicing martial arts on the school grounds.

The young students in the upper courtyard of Beilu Academy are relatively strong in strength between the fourth and sixth layers of the refining period. With the enhancement of the martial artist's physique, the number of hours that can be endured by daily cultivation has increased, from two hours to three or four hours.

"Senior Brother Yan, morning!"

Ye Chen saw the cold of the senior brother from a distance, walked over quickly, and bowed his hand.

Yan Han didn't pay attention to him at all, his whole body was slightly tense, and he was still engrossed in practicing the knife, holding the scabbard in one hand and the handle in the other, and repeatedly practicing the knife trick one move at a time.

The cold knife skills are exquisite, the sword is out of the sheath, and it suddenly jumps forward and slashes, and the four strokes are coherently performed in one breath, all in one go, and the blade cuts through the air to produce a piercing tremor, shining dazzlingly.

Ye Chen stood aside for a while, feeling a chill coming.

In the past ten days, it was said that Yan Han was "guiding" Ye Chen, but in fact, when Yan Han was practicing the sword technique, Ye Chen was watching and learning from the sidelines.

Yan Han was arrogant and indifferent to the extreme, only focusing on cultivating his sword skills, and didn't care about what others were doing. If you want him to spend time instructing a new junior disciple, that's simply impossible.

Some of the senior brothers and sisters in the upper courtyard also came to the martial arts school one after another, and many people looked at Ye Chen gloatingly.

"Senior Brother Yan Han has always been indifferent, he doesn't give people color, and he follows him to learn sword techniques, isn't this asking for hardship!" "I'm afraid that in a month or two, this new Senior Brother Ye Chen will cry and go to the head coach to learn other martial arts." "The Tiger Leaping Sword Technique is too boring, and only the cold will keep practicing!

Ye Chen didn't say much, silently wrote down the cold moves, and then took an ordinary steel knife weighing ten catties from the knife rack in the school field, and came to a clearing of several zhang.

The weight of this steel knife is not heavy, Ye Chen's fourth-layer arms already have more than four hundred catties of strength in the refining period, and holding this steel knife in his hand is as easy as holding a small piece of iron.

"The first move of the Tiger Leaping Knife Method - draw the knife!"

"Drink!"

Ye Chen stood firm on the dirt floor of the martial arts training ground, holding the scabbard in his left hand, holding the hilt of the knife in his right hand, leaning forward slightly, and quickly pulling out the knife in the posture of drawing the knife.

"Huh!"

A blade of cold light swept from the front.

Ye Chen put away the knife and cultivated repeatedly.

This set of knife techniques is surprisingly simple, with only six moves in total: drawing the knife, tiger leaping slash, tiger leaping two consecutive slashes, tiger leaping three consecutive slashes, arc moon slashing, and whirlwind slashing.

Among them, the two styles of drawing a knife and slashing a tiger leap are primary martial arts.

And the two styles of two consecutive slashes and three consecutive slashes are intermediate martial arts. Yan Han, the strongest senior brother in the upper courtyard of the Beilu Academy, is now practicing these two moves.

As for the Arc Moon Slash and the Whirlwind Slash, they are high-level martial arts that are extremely difficult to cultivate. The martial artist's own physique must reach the seventh level or more in the late stage of body refining before it can be cast. High-level martial arts, no student in the Beilu Academy can display them.

The front moves are the basis for the later moves. Only by practicing the previous moves can you practice the later moves.

The first move, "Drawing the Knife", is actually the starting style of the "Tiger Leaping Knife Method", and it is also the move with the least force and the fastest speed. The emphasis is on the speed with which the sword is drawn, and in an instant, the knife is unsheathed and the enemy in front of it is attacked.

"You have to be quick to draw your sword! If you are slow to draw your sword, by the time you pull out your sword, you will be dead for an unknown number of times. There is no trick to cultivating the sword technique, you can only practice it repeatedly for many years!"

Ye Chen still clearly remembered what Li Cang, the head of the Upper Academy, said casually when he was guiding the students to cultivate.

Ye Chen kept this sentence firmly in his heart.

In just one hour, he practiced the move of "drawing the sword" 3,000 times.

The calluses on Ye Chen's right hand were almost grinding into blood blisters, and he felt that his right arm was completely numb and unconscious.

The ten-pound steel knife in his hand became heavier than a hundred-pound knife.

According to the cultivation requirements of the "Tiger Leaping Knife Method", the move of drawing the knife must be able to "strike the knife in an instant and cut off a hardwood stake" before this move can be refined.

This one is very difficult.

Because the "knife drawing" is a starting style, Ye Chen's four hundred catties of strength can only exert about one or two percent, and he must reach an extremely fast speed before he can cut off a hardwood stake with a knife. You must know that the hardwood stakes in the school field are specially made, and those who practice fists and feet for the students of the lower courtyard can withstand three hundred catties of strength, and the power is not enough to cut them at all.

Ye Chen has been practicing the move of "drawing the sword" for ten days, and he has practiced it no less than 30,000 times, and the move is quite proficient.

"Yesterday, after the quenching of the six herbs, the qi and blood in the body are vigorous, and the powerful medicinal power of Sophora ginseng is also continuing to play a role. I'm practicing for three or four hours today, and I'll practice more than 10,000 times!"

Ye Chen said secretly in his heart.

In the morning, I practiced from dawn until the sun was in the sky.

With an extremely strong will, Ye Chen practiced hard for more than three hours in one breath, sweating profusely, and it was not until the students in the entire martial arts training school gradually left that he woke up from his cultivation.

In the entire school field, there are only less than dozens of strong Upper Academy students left, and they are still cultivating hard.

In fact, it's not that other people don't want to practice more, it's just that too high-intensity martial arts cultivation will cause physical trauma. There are only a very few people who can cultivate for a long time

Ye Chen rested in place for a full quarter of an hour before regaining his strength.

"I'll give it a try, how powerful is the trick of 'drawing the sword' that I have worked hard for ten days!"

Ye Chen came to a hardwood stake in the school yard.

"Draw your sword!"

Ye Chen stood steadily in front of a hardwood stake and took a deep breath.

The whole person leaned forward slightly, and pressed his right hand to the hilt of the knife at his waist.

The moment his right hand rested on the hilt of the knife, it was almost an instinctive reaction, his fingers vibrated slightly, and he instantly pulled the knife out of its sheath and stepped forward, swinging the blade forward.

The cold light flashed, and the blade slashed through the hard wooden stake.

The hardwood stake is motionless.

"Didn't you fail and cut off the hardwood stake?"

Ye Chen put away the knife and was stunned for a moment.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, the top half of the hardwood stake slowly slid and fell to the ground with a "plop".

"The first move of the "Tiger Leaping Sword Method" - draw the knife and refine it!"

Ye Chen's nervous expression finally showed a smile, and his spirit was greatly invigorated.

"It took me ten days to practice the first move of the Tiger Leaping Knife Technique. I can start practicing the next move tomorrow, the Tiger Leap Slash. In just twenty or thirty days, I will be able to complete the two beginner sword techniques of the Tiger Leaping Sword Technique!"

"The second move of the Tiger Leaping Knife Technique, the Tiger Leap Slash! In an instant, a sword shadow slashed at a target. This trick must be cut off a stone stake that is harder than a hardwood stake to be refined. 'Chopping' is about absolute strength! ”

Ye Chen meditated in his heart about the key to the sword technique.

He gripped the steel knife and slashed forward.

Call!

Ye Chen turned his head and looked at the school field, in the school field, Senior Brother Yan Han was still practicing sword techniques.

The speed of Yan Han's knife drawing was extremely fast, and he instantly slashed forward, and the two sword shadows almost overlapped one after the other.

The cold may even occasionally perform a tiger leap triple slash.

Of course, Yan Han was already at the sixth level of the body refining stage, and he had been cultivating the Tiger Leaping Sword Method for more than a year, which was not comparable to a fourth-layer martial artist like Ye Chen.

"Tiger Leap slashed twice, and in an instant, two sword shadows slashed at a target. This difficulty is much more difficult than Tiger Leap!"

"Senior Brother Yan is really strong, he is already practicing the intermediate sword technique of the Tiger Leaping Sword Technique, the third and fourth moves! I am still far away, I have to catch up as soon as possible!"

Ye Chen knew the difficulty of this.

Ye Chen continued to grit his teeth and continued to practice the knife.

There are too few moves in the "Tiger Leaping Sword Method", and all of them add up to only six moves, and the latter two moves can only be cultivated in the late stage of the body refining period. It's more boring than other swordsmanship.

But cultivating martial arts is like this, practicing one move at a time.

While practicing martial arts moves, the muscles and bones of the whole body will be coordinated, and the power of martial arts moves will gradually be exerted. Otherwise, even if it is a top-level martial art, it will not be able to exert much power without the long-term cultivation of a martial artist.

"Beilu Academy has a strength appraisal and graduation assessment every six months!"

"Strength appraisal, it is required to reach the 'sixth layer of the body refining period, and complete a set of intermediate martial arts with a complete set of martial arts', these two requirements! Then, you are eligible for a graduation assessment, as long as you pass the assessment, you can graduate from the Beilu Academy!"

"I spent one month practicing the beginner sword technique of the Tiger Leaping Sword Technique, and used five months of intermediate two moves: two consecutive slashes and three consecutive slashes, and strive to refine these two moves, so I went to participate in the appraisal and assessment of the academy, and strive to graduate from the Beilu Academy as soon as possible. ”

Ye Chen clenched the handle of the steel knife, and his immature face dripping with sweat showed a resolute look.

If it had been placed in the past, he would never have dared to have such an almost crazy thought.

In the past ten years, he practiced every morning, did chores in the afternoon to earn money, and took advantage of the evening to read some books, and almost never slackened. However, he earned too little money, and he kept buying first-grade and second-grade herbs to refine his physique, and the method maintained a high-intensity cultivation, and it took him ten years to enter the fourth layer of the middle stage of refining.

Now he has six herbs, which can greatly temper his physique, and he can spend more than four hours a day to maintain high-intensity martial arts cultivation. He gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, sprinting towards the sixth layer of the body refining stage, and cultivating to a mid-level sword technique would no longer be something that was beyond his desire!
