The Blue Demoness Mercenary Corps' martial arts field had a skinny figure since the early morning of the second day.
"Quick! Throw a punch even faster, the only way to save your life is if the attack lands on the enemy first!"
Randall was carrying a stick in his hand as he personally taught Arthur, who was a little slow in his movements the stick landed on him.
"The Seventy-Two Toward Death Decision Style uses punches, kicks, elbow strikes, and knee tops to attack the human body's eight fatal vitals in the ears, temples, throat, heart, back of the head, cervical vertebrae, spine, and back of the heart. The movements should be fast, accurate, and vicious, and each move should explode the power of the whole body to kill the enemy in one blow, never giving the enemy a chance to counterattack." Randall simultaneously explained the essence of martial arts to Arthur.
"Why is it such a vicious martial art?" Arthur couldn't help but stop and twist his head to ask.
"This is a set of martial arts techniques from the military's special operations forces, special operations forces do not strike is already, strike is a life and death mission, if you do not kill the enemy at the first time, the death is their own."
"Isn't it possible to use any other move as well, as long as it kills the enemy?"
"There has never been a set method of killing, the Seventy-two Styles of Deathward Decision is one of the fastest and most effective ways of striking and killing summarized from countless life-and-death killings, but it only provides an introductory method. By the time one reaches the level of a general level martial artist, a single move of the hands and feet can kill the enemy."
"I'm still getting used to orc attacks." Arthur suddenly scratched his head.
"You'd better forget all those things you learned from the orc camp, those pouncing and biting moves in the orc martial arts seem fierce, but still leave room for the enemy to counterattack. Back in the day, we fought with orc warriors, the same level of battle lightly injured for the other side of the body to die, cross-level challenge can also fight with the orcs to the same death."
"So Uncle was a warrior back in the day, too, Chief Cairns and Tony and the others, right?" Arthur's eyes instantly lit up. He had long sensed that the mercenary group was different, the Blue Leprechaun's mercenaries didn't have the usual diffidence and casualness that was commonly seen in mercenaries, and their fighting style and daily training carried strong traces of the army.
Randall's expression froze for a moment, as if he was caught up in a memory.
Arthur looked at Randall curiously, what kind of story was hidden?
Arthur's curiosity was rewarded with Randall's roar, accompanied by the stick landing once again, "These are not things you kids should care about, practice your sideways punches a hundred more times!"
...
From the early morning of the rising sun to the red and blue moonlight, day after day, Randall was like a demon stalking Arthur, roaring and clubbing always at his side at the slightest moment of relief.
It was only under the stormy destruction that Arthur suddenly realized why the mercenaries were afraid to mess with Randall? It turned out that he was more than just a short-tempered man.
Cairns leaned against the corner door of the martial arts arena, holding his shoulders as he looked at the sweating Arthur under the hot sun, "You've taken out all the tactics you used to train new recruits back then? Aren't you afraid of practicing this kid to death?"
"Don't worry, this kid is more resistant to stress than any soldier I've ever led back in the day." Randall apparated out of Cairns' side.
"Let's recognize that people have different talents; some people are born to be painters and musicians, while this Arthur boy was born to be a warrior!" Like he had found a treasure, Cairns' eyes shone with brilliance.
"What are you going to do about the Stabbing Blood Mercenaries?" Randall's words suddenly changed.
Cairns' eyes turned and said quietly, "Last time, Tristie lost his sword and face both sides didn't officially go to war, can we still take the initiative to go to war this time? Since they want to play dirty, we'll play dirty with them!"
"So what are you going to do?"
"I haven't thought about it yet, but I can get Tony and Arthur to do it?"
"Arthur? Are you kidding?" Randall looked at Cairns in surprise.
Cairns smiled wryly, "Don't you remember that time at the Nightingale Bar, I always thought Tony and Arthur were perfect for each other."
"It was Tristie's carelessness last time, otherwise the other side could have slaughtered Arthur by pulling out a random mercenary, you don't want the kid to die, do you?"
"You can't grow into a good warrior without experiencing more storms!" Cairns said in a seemingly casual manner, "But it's not enough just to fight to the death? It's the fighting spirit that determines the ultimate height of a martial artist!"
Randall instantly understood what Cairns meant and his face changed in vain, "I disagree! That fighting technique is not complete, and so far not a single person has successfully crossed into the War General's Gate."
"Just because no one's ever succeeded doesn't mean Arthur can't either, didn't you just say he's more resilient than all the soldiers you've ever led? Don't you want to see its true power in your lifetime, Arthur may be our last hope." Cairns said meaningfully.
Randall lapsed into silence for a moment.
...
"Since you have decided to become a mercenary, you should not only learn martial arts but also cultivate fighting qi. Martial skills as the surface and fighting qi as the foundation, only when the two are united is a true warrior!"
Arthur's instructor had been replaced with Cairns, and Cairns, whom Arthur looked up at with anticipation in his gaze. He had seen the power of orc warriors with fighting qi in the orc camp. But the orcs would never easily pass on the fighting qi technique to a human slave.
Cairns continued, "The fighting qi techniques of Beland continent are divided into four stages, each stage is further divided into the upper, middle and lower three grades, and legend has it that there are still God's techniques on top of that. The vast majority of the color of the fighting qi is white, but if your opponent's fighting qi is of other colors, you have to be careful, the more colorful the fighting qi the stronger the power."
"And what level is Leon's fighting spirit?" Arthur couldn't help but interject and ask.
"You said that little lion, that's a Heaven Stage Middle Grade Dou Qi 'Red Sun Flowing Gold' and is an untold secret of the Golden Lion Clan."
"Oh." Arthur nodded softly, but there was an inexplicable feeling of despondency in his heart.
"Regarding the fighting qi you're going to learn next you have two choices, one is the military gongfu that matches the Deathward Decision, 'Bing Yuan Returning to One Decision', and the other is an unnamed gongfu that Randall and I accidentally obtained on an expedition, we named it 'Danyang Refining God '"
"What level are they each?" Arthur asked urgently.
"'Bing Yuan Returning to One Decision' is a Xuan rank upper grade technique, 'Danyang Refining God' must be above the level of Bing Yuan Returning to One Decision, but there is no way for me to confirm the exact level, if it is complete it can definitely be categorized as a Heaven rank technique. "
"Then I'll learn 'Danyang Refining God'!"
Cairns gazed at Arthur with a grave expression, "Kid, don't be so hasty to make a decision. Although the 'Soldier Yuan Returns to One Decision' is only a Xuan level technique, but after nearly a thousand years of inheritance and practice by my human army, the technique is already close to the best, although the technique is slow to cultivate, but it can be straight to the war school by progressing step by step. On the contrary, at present, no one rely on the cultivation of 'Danyang refining God' to step through the generals of the sky, and the cultivation process is exceptionally painful, absolutely very people can endure, the so-called 'Danyang refining God' name is derived from the cultivation of the time as a round of hot sun baking nerves, pain! "
"I want to learn 'Danyang Refining God'!" Arthur repeated without hesitation, "Compared to the feeling of powerlessness in the face of death, what is the greatest pain?"
Cairns suddenly turned his head and gave Randall, who was standing in the corner, a meaningful smile ...
