Chapter 89 - 89 Learning the Spear



The courtyard was not small, and there were quite a few items for martial arts training placed inside.

Weapon racks lined up, displaying a row of long spears including Red Lotus Spears, Horse-blocking Long Spears, Red Tassel Spears, Iron Cavalry Spears, and Double-headed Flower Spears, among others.

Stone piers, stone locks, Plum Blossom Piles, sandbags, wooden dummies….

Lin Zhen discovered a particular characteristic; the items did not seem to have any modern essence. It appeared that fewer people used them during the Common Era, but they could still be seen here. Lin Zhen wondered where Zhang Guanyue managed to acquire them from.

The courtyard was cleaned very thoroughly, even having water sprinkled on it. umy cne mam nouse seemea a little runaown.

Zhang Guanyue warmly invited Lin Zhen to take a seat. He then put away the wine and meat, clearly treating them as precious items.

When Zhang Guanyue came out after a while, he confessed to Lin Zhen, “I really did not expect that you would come. Your strength far surpasses mine, so I don’t know what I can teach you. But, I should let you know that none of my students have managed to last for more than three days.”

Lin Zhen smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Just train me with your strictest standards. I will be able to endure it. However, I must tell you one thing: I can only stay here for a week. Within seven days, if I am satisfied with what I have learned, not only will I pay the tuition, but I will also give you this additional amount. ”

Lin Zhen raised a finger as he spoke.

Zhang Guanyue’s eyes sparkled, “An extra ten thousand?”

Lin Zhen gave a wry smile and shook his head, “Do you think I would bother mentioning it if it was only ten thousand?”

“Could it be… one million?” Zhang Guanyue was slightly incredulous.

“Ten million, but I have to learn your signature skills within a week. Is that possible?”

“What do you know?” Zhang Guanyue was stunned.

“Hehe, Mr. Zhang. If I could find this place, of course, I would know a thing or two. I am eager to learn about your spear skills, the reason that you missed the opportunity to advance to the rank of War General. With enough determination, one can always find some clues.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Guanyue couldn’t help but sigh, “Ah, I don’t even know if the choices I’ve made are right. I’ve always liked the spear since I was a child, and I’ve been practicing it all along. However, because my family was poor and I fell sick during my graduation exam, I never had the opportunity to advance. It took me twenty years to master one spear technique, but now, I have reached this point. My girlfriend also…”

“It’s all in the past. Things will get better,” Lin Zhen reassured.

“Sigh! Never mind. Originally, I never planned to tell anyone about this matter, but since you’ve found out and come looking for me, there’s no point in hiding it anymore.”

“My spear technique is a bit different from what’s on the internet today. It starts from the most basic moves. Although simple, it requires great perseverance and patience. If you really want to learn, you must stay here for the entire seven days, and I will teach you with all my might. However, I can’t guarantee the outcome.”

“Don’t worry about that; I think I have some talent. Let’s begin now.”

Lin Zhen stood up, raising his hand to retrieve the Black Dragon Spear from his Space Ring.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Guanyue waved his hand, “That won’t do. If you want to learn, you must follow my rules. Start with this.”

Zhang Guanyue then took a long Red Tassel Spear from the weapon rack and handed it over.

“Catch!”

Lin Zhen lifted his hand to receive the Red Tassel Spear from Zhang Guanyue. The spear was made of wood and weighed no more than ten kilograms. Lin Zhen held it lightly in his hand, finding it somewhat unwieldy.

“Don’t underestimate the wooden spear. Even though it is not suitable for modern combat, it has its advantages. Flexibility and lightness are not something that modern metal weapons can match.”

“Have you heard the saying ‘practice the spear by the light of the moon and the sword by the year’? Nowadays, martial artists practice in pursuit of the strongest speed and power but forget that spear techniques are also vast and profound. In my opinion, spear techniques consist of several basic moves, including thrusting, stabbing, lifting, deflecting, raising, blocking, crushing, sweeping, hanging, and pointing.”

Zhang Guanyue took another Red Tassel Spear, locked the main door, and walked up to Lin Zhen, “Show me a simple thrust with the spear.”

Lin Zhen raised his hand and performed a thrusting motion.

“Wrong, the posture is not correct. The spear is the most primitive weapon of mankind. Since the time of primitive tribes, humans have used long spears to fight wild beasts. The focus of using a spear is control. With its long reach, the most basic move is the long-range thrust. Your current thrust is prioritizing follow-up changes instead of the basic essentials of thrusting, which is to deliver a fatal blow!”

Zhang Guanyue demonstrated the correct move for Lin Zhen.

A simple thrust left Lin Zhen speechless.

With just the wooden spear, no Dantian energy, and a not-so-strong user, this one thrust contained the essence of a spear.

The thrust was filled with a dangerous aura, so simple yet effective that it gave off an unavoidable and irresistible feeling.

At that moment, Lin Zhen gained a new understanding.

“Continue practicing this thrust until I am satisfied. Only then will I teach you the second move.”

Now acting as a teacher, Zhang Guanyue no longer had his previous demeanor and became extremely serious.

Without a word of complaint, Lin Zhen began practicing the first move, the thrust, on the spot.

“No good! Your back leg is too far forward. Pay attention to controlling the distance!”

“Your front hand is too weak in thrusting. Imagine that there is an enemy in front of you, an enemy who can take your life. You must finish them with one thrust! ”

“Pay attention to the force in your waist! How can you achieve being the number one warrior in Ice City with this kind of waist force?”

“Hurry up! I saw on the internet that your speed is comparable to lightning.

Why have you slowed down? Don’t be too restricted by the movement. Grasping the key points is the essence.”

“Where’s your aura when you killed those Russians? A thrust without momentum won’t inspire fear. The spear must be unyielding; do you understand? Nowadays, young people…!”

As Zhang Guanyue shouted orders from the side, Lin Zhen followed his instructions strictly and continued to practice thrust after thrust.

After hundreds of hands-on instructions, Lin Zhen’s movements were close to perfection, and Zhang Guanyue was tired. He then took out the wine and meat that Lin Zhen had bought and started eating and drinking there, without any intention of inviting Lin Zhen to join him.

Lin Zhen did not want to eat either. He mechanically performed the movements, being even more demanding of himself than Zhang Guanyue. He would not stop until he achieved perfection.

And so it went, from morning to noon, and then from noon to afternoon.

It wasn’t until the sun began to shift westward that Lin Zhen finally found a certain feeling.

“A spear is a spear, the king of all weapons. Whether my spear is made of wood or metal, with a spear in hand, I must forge ahead without fear. Even if faced with the heavens, I must pierce them and create a hole!”

“This is akin to a spirit, the spirit of drawing a sword. Even if facing the number one swordsman in the world, you must have the spirit to draw a sword and strike!”

Gradually, Lin Zhen submerged himself in the rhythm, performing several consecutive thrusts. Suddenly, his eyes focused, and with both hands grasping the spear, he unleashed the full power of his waist and body muscles for a fierce thrust.

“Ha!”

The long Red Tassel Spear transformed into a flash of lightning, fiercely tnrustmg rorwarcu

An invisible sharp aura spread through the air, striking the courtyard wall, stirring up a puff of dust, and leaving a pit in the wall!

With no Dantian energy support, just relying on the swift motions, unyielding spirit, and perfect thrusting posture, Lin Zhen released a true spear gleam with the wooden spear!
