After cultivating for a while, Joey could feel his dentian refilled with the essence qi. So, he ended up chanting his mantra, stood up, and stretched his body.
" Fool! Why don't you still practice that technique yet? If you used it in today's fight, we can see where her limit lies. " Ai suddenly shouted telepathically in his mind.
On hearing the loud sound in his mind suddenly, he remains agitated for a moment. After knowing that Ai was the one shouting at him, he becomes overjoyed instead.
" Big sister, you are back ? " he asked her happily.
" Good good! Now you can even bear the weight of 800 kg,'' she said to him with some approval and she continued.
" And also that palm technique you use today seems very unique, but unfortunately it failed to coordinate with the movement skill you use. You better learn the Dragon punch technique. It will be of much help to synchronize with that movement technique . " she explained to him. After that, she remained quiet again not responding to Joey like yesterday.
Joey felt a bit disappointed at how she remained silent again. Then, he closed his eyes, meditated for a while then started remembering how Ai taught the dragon punch technique to him.
After examining the process repetitively, he began to understand the process of the technique more clearly.
" So this technique used the dragon root inside the heart to first absorb the essence qi from the surrounding inside it, then make the qi flow to both hands. And all the punches used seem to be freestyle," he murmured to himself.
Then he started practicing this technique. After several hours of practicing it, he becomes more and more familiar with this technique. After that, he took a warm bath and went to sleep in his bed.
The next day, as usual, he woke up early in the morning. He then continued doing all his daily routine like before and walked out of the castle for the training ground.
When he reached the training ground, he saw his sister waiting there.
" Oh! Zi Zi, you are early today," he spoke to her with a warm smile.
" Brat, I can't forget the great feeling of our fight yesterday. Also, don't make me wait here from tomorrow onward. Come quickly ." She held his right hand and pulled him inside the combat room quickly.
" Don't hold back like you did yesterday. Otherwise ... " she reminded him and suddenly punched him in the chest.
Joey quickly removed the extra weight and dodged her surprising punch.
" Hahaha, then let us go all out . " she smiled at him as he succeeded in making him use his extreme speed from the start. Then she followed his every step and started raining multiple punches at him.
Like yesterday, he blocked her with his hands and dodged sometimes using his extreme speed. Afterward, he started counterattacking her with the Tai-Chi palm strike.
But unfortunately, using Tai - Chi on her was really a bad move. As she was heavily doted on by her grandfather who practiced this technique, to begin with, she almost spent all her time around him and grew up while observing this technique he used. So, she understood this technique even more than how Joey used it.
She suddenly changed her punch attack to the palm style of Tai - Chi similar to what Joey used.
" What! Jie Jie, do you practice this technique too ? " he asked her with surprise. Then they continued fighting with their palms this time.
For a few minutes, she kept her striking speed at the same pace as Joey. But afterward, she started overwhelming him by increasing her attack speed while Joey's attacking speed became disoriented and disharmonious. He gets hit multiple times on his body this time and he was pushed backward. Still, she didn't stop her attack and kept following him.
" Brat, use that technique now," Ai instructed in his mind.
Then Joey made some distance from her by multiplying his speed quickly. He then used the dragon root inside his heart and started sucking essence qi from the surrounding, after that the qi is made to flow toward his hands as per the technique. His hands became stronger after that.
Sensing how he absorbed a large amount of qi inside his body, Mei Lien stopped her attack and observed at his body. She waited for him as she wanted to learn more about this new skill of his.
" Zi Zi, you hit me hard this time. Check out this new skill of mine. " Joey said to her while looking into her eyes. Then he started using the movement technique, approached her, and started continuously punching randomly at her this time. His movement and attacking pattern become unpredictable this time.
Still, Mie lien kept using the Tai - Chi technique to fight back. They fought equally for about 15 minutes. After that she stopped directly attacking him, instead, she moved her palm like a snake, catching and deflecting the incoming strong punches of Joey easily.
Joey soon realized that all the strength of his punches was absorbed by her palms like a stone that threw inside a pound. He could feel his fists punching hard on a slippery object but missed the target for no reason. Even though his strength became stronger, he felt helpless to her new style of Tai -Chi technique.
Afterward, Mie lien started attacking him when he felt helpless and started beating him again.
" Look carefully. This is how you used soft to defeat the hard one. Alright, let's stop here for today. You improved a lot from yesterday. If you continue improving like this, I will be left to dust by you soon . " she told him with a smile and ended their bout for today.
" Jie Jie, where do you learn that technique you just used now? " Joey enquired at her curiously.
" Xiao di, the palm technique that you practice comes from our grandfather. You know that I always used to stay by his side almost all my childhood. I saw him practicing this technique every day so I know every trick he used with this technique . " she replied to him calmly. After that, she bade him and quickly left the room.
After that only Joey remained alone in the combat room. He then sat down cross-legged on the floor, closed his eyes, and started remembering all the moments of the fight just now. He started recollecting all his bad moves and started dedicating himself to overcome his shortcoming during the fight.
Joey stood up after examining his fight with his sister for about two hours. Then he started practicing all the moves from the beginning until the end and corrected all of his shortcomings. After that, he also took his leave from the room.
