Chapter 6 Ten times the speed, continuous improvement
After the Yachao and Wan Er left, Xu Xing said to Aunt Zhang: "Aunt, you have a rest first, I will clean up the place." As he said that, he began to clean up the messy and dilapidated stalls.
Some of the people around were sympathetic and came to help, and several women went to comfort Aunt Zhang.
When everything was finished, everyone left one after another, and it became quiet under the tent.
Aunt Zhang was stunned for a while and suddenly said to Xu Xing: "Xiaoxing, go quickly, don't be here anymore. You have injured Wan Er and Yan Wu. After they go back, they will definitely find someone to take revenge on you!"
Xu Xing shook his head and said, "Auntie, I can't leave. If I leave, they will cause trouble for you."
Xu Xing was not really just a twelve-year-old child. His soul had the experience and insights of adults in his previous life. When Yan Wu escaped, he had already thought that he might face revenge from the Flower Snake Gang in the future.
Also, the Yamashiro who came to deliver the letter took Wan Er away. Although it seemed that the law enforcement was strictly enforced, Xu Xing could see that the relationship between the Yamashiro and Wan Er should be very good. Wan Er was taken away by him this time, so he must be just a gesture and there would be no trouble.
If Xu Xing's original idea was to take Aunt Zhang and leave Suning City for a few days, and after his strength had improved, he would come back and clean up the entire Huashe Gang together.
However, after Wan Er left, Xu Xing changed his original plan because of a system information.
"Ding, because you fought and won two poor martial artists who were good at martial arts and won, you gained 4 experience points."
Except for killing the sloppy beggar and getting 1 experience point when he just came over, this is Xu Xing's second experience point.
Xu Xing secretly guessed that this experience value may be obtained by fighting with others.
While obtaining 4 experience points, Xu Xing also learned the purpose of these experience points: in addition to understanding new martial arts skills, it can also be used to speed up the increase in martial arts proficiency. For every little experience value consumed, you can obtain a ten-fold increase in the speed of proficiency within half an hour.
When Aunt Zhang saw Xu Xing unwilling to leave, she said anxiously: "You kid, I am an old woman, how can they do to me? On the contrary, if you don't leave, they will interrupt your hands and feet! You are still so young, if you are beaten to a disabled person by them, how can you live in the future!"
Xu Xing said: "If the Flower Snake Gang is as good as Wan Er and Yan Wu, even if they go back and call a few helpers, they shouldn't hurt me. Unless they come over at a time, I may not be able to beat me." As he said that, he was also a little worried and asked, "Will they really call dozens of people, right?"
Aunt Zhang shook her head and said, "That won't be. The Flower Snake Gang is just a small gang on this street. There are only about seven or eight people. They are all street thugs who refuse to walk the right path. They live by collecting An Yejin from all the shops on this street."
Xu Xing immediately felt relieved: "That's not to be afraid!"
Aunt Zhang frowned and continued, "But, their gang leader Huo Kuan is a powerful person. I heard that he could kill a cow with bare hands. Ordinary three or five big men cannot get close to him!"
Xu Xing's brows slightly condensed: "Oh? This person needs to pay more attention."
According to Aunt Zhang, Xu Xing guessed that this "flower snake" Huo Kuan was likely to be a third-rate warrior.
Xu Xing himself was just one of the third-rate players, the weakest among the third-rate players. At this time, he was not sure that he could beat Huo Kuan.
However, Xu Xing did not intend to escape. He was of the third level, so how could he run away after hearing the other party’s name?
But Xu Xing didn't dare to be too arrogant. If he really lost to Huo Kuan and was interrupted by the Huashe Gang, this was not what he wanted.
So Xu Xing adjusted his plan again. He planned to consume the 4 experience points he had just obtained to see how much strength he could improve, and then decide whether to leave or stay.
Xu Xing came to the pile of firewood, and the firewood he had chopped yesterday was neatly placed there, but he stood up the chopped firewood again.
Aunt Zhang asked in confusion: "Xiao Zhang, what are you doing?"
Xu Xing said: "Auntie, I want to take advantage of Wan Er and the others who have not come here yet, hurry up and practice the sword technique!"
Aunt Zhang said angrily: "When is it now? What other sword technique do you practice? I tell you, Wan Er and Yan Wu were injured by you, and it may take some time to bandage the wound, but when they bandage the wound, they will definitely bring people here this afternoon at the latest. What can you practice at such a little time? You'd better run away quickly! Also, you said you want to practice knife, but why do I think you are going to chop firewood here?"
Xu Xing consumed a little experience value, and the system immediately sent a message: "Ding, you consumed a little experience value and chose to quickly improve your skill. In the next half hour, every time you practice will gain a lot of proficiency at a normal speed of ten times!"
Xu Xing held the hatchet in his hand, calmed his mind and slashed down with a "vertical slash".
With a "click", the firewood that had been chopped was slashed thinner by Xu Xing again.
"Because you successfully split a firewood while practicing the second road of "Chaishan Eighteen Roads", this move is highly consistent with your state when chopping firewood. You triggered the "Spiritual light suddenly appears, and the blessing of the soul is coming". You detected that you are in a state of ten times the proficiency, with a proficiency of 56. The current level is [Practice makes perfect], and the proficiency is [565,000]!"
Seeing this message, Xu Xing's confidence suddenly increased and he replied to Aunt Zhang: "That's right, I just practice knives when I chop firewood, and practicing knives when I chop firewood!"
Aunt Zhang's face became even more worried and murmured: "Why can't this kid be adjusted at the critical moment? How could there be no kid in this world who can practice cutting firewood? It's really nonsense!" But seeing Xu Xing refused to listen to her, there was no way for a while.
Half an hour later, Xu Xing stopped, and in front of him was a pile of firewood that had been chopped thinner by him.
Some firewood was cut in half by walking, shorter than other firewood, which was caused by his practice of the two-way knife techniques of "sweeping" and "oblique cutting".
In half an hour, Xu Xing not only practiced the "vertical split" sword technique to the level of [Entering the House], but also practiced the two methods of "sweeping" and "oblique cutting" to the level of "practice makes perfect".
As he continued to practice, Xu Xing felt more and more at ease about these four-way sword techniques, and vaguely, new insights seemed to burst out.
Moreover, since he upgraded the "flat cut" to the level of [Entering the House] yesterday evening, Xu Xing has discovered that even if he no longer deliberately practices this sword technique, his proficiency in "flat cut" is still slowly improving over time.
About every minute, the proficiency of "flat cut" will automatically increase by 1 point.
It has been more than ten hours since yesterday evening to now, and the proficiency of "flat cut" has increased by 875 points. Although it is still far from the 10,000 points upgraded next time, if this continues, Xu Xing doesn't even need to practice deliberately. It only takes about seven days to upgrade again.
This is also the reason why Xu Xing prioritized the practice of "vertical splitting" to the level of [entering the hall and entering the room].
However, because of practicing knife, Xu Xing chopped a lot of firewood into different lengths and messy pieces, and it was difficult to arrange it neatly anymore, which made him feel a little embarrassed. - After all, it was not his own firewood.
Aunt Zhang watched for half an hour and saw with his own eyes that Xu Xing's moves became more and more skillful and more fierce, exactly the same as his previous moves when he fought with Wan Er and Yan Wu. Only then did he really believe that Xu Xing was practicing sword skills.
Since she couldn't persuade Xu Xing, Aunt Zhang stopped to persuade her. Seeing Xu Xing stopping to sort out the broken firewood, she took the initiative to say, "You don't have to worry about them. Anyway, they are all used for burning fire. It's better to burn a little bit. Just pile them up!"
After hearing this, Xu Xing gave up sorting it out and said, "Auntie, I may have to chop the remaining firewood into pieces and messy..."
Aunt Zhang said indifferently: "As long as you don't feel tired, you can split it like you want!"
Xu Xing consumed a little experience value again, in exchange for a tenfold increase in half an hour, and practiced the "sweep" and "slant cutting" techniques to the level of [Enter the House].
Since it takes 5,000 proficiency points from [Practice makes perfect] to [Enter the house], although he drives ten times the speed of improvement, each sword technique needs to be swung about a hundred times before it can meet the upgrade conditions. Moreover, you must be serious and focused on these hundred times, not perfunctory, and you must chop firewood at the right time, and you must complete it within fifteen minutes, otherwise, time may not be enough.
With so many restrictions, Xu Xing barely practiced these two sword techniques to the level of [Entering the House], and half an hour had been spent.
"Ding, since you have practiced the first four roads of "Chaishan Eighteen Road" to the level of [Entering the House], you have developed a new understanding of "Chaishan Eighteen Road" and triggered the effect of "Chaishan Eighteen Road" and got the opportunity to understand the new moves. Do you understand it? [This understanding will not consume experience value]."
Xu Xing smacked his lips and practiced the two sword techniques of "sweeping" and "slanting cutting". When he was in the realm of "practice makes perfect", the "treatment of the same thing" he expected was not triggered. Instead, after reaching the realm of "entering the hall", it triggered a "blank clouds and fog", which was somewhat beyond his expectations.
Xu Xing did not hesitate and immediately chose "Yes".
"Ding, I have successfully understood it! Congratulations on learning the fifth 'roll leaf' of the third-rate exercise "Chaishan Eighteen Road" in the fifth 'roll, the sixth 'breaking branches', the seventh 'cut root', the eighth 'dividing vines', the ninth 'avoiding 'avoiding', and the tenth 'stooping beast'!"
After comprehension of the six-way moves at once, he gave Xu Xing a big enough surprise.
When Xu Xing tried to use it one by one, he was surprised to find that these six-way moves were already quite different from the previous four.
The moves like "Curling Leaf" do not focus on hurting the enemy, but more on accumulating momentum, which can make subsequent moves more powerful.
The two moves of "breaking branches" and "cutting roots" are mostly used between counter-attacks. "breaking branches" are mainly used to deal with the enemy's fists and feet and the attacks of long and short weapons; while "cutting roots" are the lower three ways of attacking the enemy, and the middle ones are likely to be cut off.
The trick of "dividing vine" is to deal with soft weapons such as soft whip, long whip, flying silk, three-section whip, nine-section whip, and nunchaku. In Xu Xing's view, it is a bit similar to the "breaking rope style" in "Dugu Nine Swords", but it is obviously far worse than "Dugu Nine Swords".
"Avoiding a thorn" is a body technique used to avoid various hidden weapons from the enemy. Xu Xing couldn't help but compare this trick with the "Arrow-breaking style" in "Dugu Nine Swords". Others' "Arrow-breaking style" can break all the hidden weapons in the sky, but this "Arrow-avoiding" is just incompetent to avoid other people's hidden weapons, and there is no way to crack it.
The last "Shocking Beast" move is a sound attack, which gathers energy in the chest and abdomen in a special way, and makes sounds through the throat. Its effect does not focus on hurting the enemy, but rather uses special sounds to achieve the purpose of intimidating the enemy's mind. Xu Xing even secretly guessed whether the person who created this technique used this move to shock the beasts in the mountains and used this move to shock the beasts in the mountains, so he gave this name.
At this time, there are 2 experience points left, so it is obviously impossible to practice all these six moves to the level of [Entering the Hall]. You must make some choices.
Xu Xing thought about it and finally chose the three tricks of "rolling leaves", "breaking branches", and "cutting roots".
The reason why I didn't choose the other three moves is because "Flower Snake" Huo Kuan is a person who uses hard fists and does not use whips, so there is no need to rush to practice the "dividing vines" move for the time being; while "avoiding thorns" is mainly to avoid hidden weapons. I believe that a mere Flower Snake Gang that only occupies one street will not have any powerful hidden weapon masters, so I can give up practicing temporarily; the last "shocking beast" move requires voice practice. On this street, Xu Xing did not want to make a "screaming" sound to attract attention.
Therefore, after comprehensive screening, Xu Xing felt that practicing the three moves of fifth, sixth and seventh is the most suitable for him at the moment.
After spending the last 2 experience points, one hour later, Xu Xing successfully practiced the "rolling leaves" and "breaking branches" two moves to the level of [Entering the house], while the other move to "cutting the roots" only reached the level of [practice makes perfect].
In addition, Xu Xing was lucky this time, triggering two "studying through the same things" effects, and comprehending two new moves.
