Start the liver experience with push-ups

Smack!

Smack!

Goro Majima took off his shirt, revealing his broad and thick back muscles.

He took a deep breath each time he assumed a stance.

Two assistants would then swing wooden sticks, striking his back and sides.

Or they would kick his thighs and shins with force.

Patches of red and purple quickly appeared all over his skin.

Yet, Goro Majima remained motionless.

After exhaling, he continued to assume the next stance.

His muscles were like iron, seemingly impervious to harm.

Fang Cheng stood aside, observing.

Through watching instructional videos and delving into related knowledge these past few days,

He knew that Goro Majima was currently practicing the Sanchin kata of Goju-ryu karate.

This is called Pai Da Gong in Xia's traditional martial arts, and Hard Body Technique in other fighting styles in Dongying.

Among them, the most important and practical is pain tolerance training.

Using breathing to tighten muscles, allowing sparring partners to constantly strike the vulnerable parts of the body.

Ultimately, this makes the muscles firm, the stance stable, and enhances the ability to withstand strong blows.

The purpose of this training method is what the saying goes: "Learn to take a beating before you hit others."

If you punch me, I feel no pain.

But if I punch you, it can take your life.

When watching the videos at home, Fang Cheng didn't feel much.

Now, seeing it so clearly up close, he couldn't help but feel a bit of interest in these traditional training methods.

Although his physique was already far superior to ordinary people.

It would naturally be beneficial to make his body more sturdy and resilient.

While Fang Cheng was having these insights,

Goro Majima gritted his teeth, remaining silent.

It wasn't that he was mentally numb or had no sense of pain.

It was just that he was infatuated with the momentary trance brought about by tormenting his body.

Before coming to Xia, he was full of hope.

But in the past six months, he had only encountered swindlers or good-for-nothings.

They were all so fragile!

He could only use this self-destructive method to vent his accumulated emotions and suppress the terrifying monster lurking in his heart.

Goro Majima's eyes revealed a strong sense of disappointment and anger.

Suddenly, he let out a breath and shouted in a low voice:

"Alright."

Then, he put away his stance, stepped onto the ring, and pointed at Fang Cheng.

"You, come up here!"

With a simple sentence and gesture,

Fang Cheng could understand his meaning without translation.

He then carried the red square foot target and followed him onto the ring.

Just as he stood in position and looked up, Goro Majima's footwork shifted into a side kick, already sweeping towards him.

Smack!

Fang Cheng reacted quickly, raising the target in front of his chest in time to block the sudden kick.

Due to the hasty start, the force transmitted from the sole of the foot was not very strong, and he only took a small half-step back to offset the impact.

Fang Cheng was currently at the most basic level of a "human target."

The coach had already told Goro Majima in advance that he was a newcomer.

Therefore, the first lesson mainly focused on practicing fixed target positions.

That is, the sparring partner stands in a suitable place, acting as a target in various ways to guide the employer's kicks.

Fixed foot target training is a required course in karate, which helps to form basic movements and cultivate a sense of distance.

For intermediate and advanced players, it can continuously consolidate the shaping of technical movements and develop physical instincts.

After catching the side kick, Fang Cheng quickly adjusted his stance and stabilized his lower body.

Goro Majima's next attack came without pause, arriving in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, he kept kicking around Fang Cheng, continuously kicking out several legs.

For a time, the strong wind brushed his face, blowing his hair, and the offensive could be described as extremely fierce.

Under normal circumstances, the sparring partner should guide the employer to train and maintain a sense of rhythm.

But Goro Majima was obviously not a normal person!

At this moment, he was only focused on attacking, with a desire to kick the "target" away and relieve the hatred in his heart.

Bang!

Another aerial spinning back kick.

The weight and power of the leg made Fang Cheng stagger back several steps.

Fang Cheng breathed slightly and looked at Goro Majima, whose eyes were fierce, and his eyes also showed a dignified meaning.

Before watching him fight with others, he couldn't experience it personally.

Only after he stepped onto the stage did he truly feel the brute force of the opponent, as violent as a beast.

Each time he was attacked, it was like being pounced on by a rampaging bear.

If measured by the panel attribute standard,

Goro Majima's strength is definitely above 15 points, and may even be close to 20 points.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Obviously higher than Fang Cheng's 12 points of strength.

However.

Fang Cheng did not produce any intention to retreat.

His eyes were bright and shining, as if a raging fighting spirit was ignited.

Even if he was just a beginner sparring partner.

It's not just about wearing protective gear, holding a target, and being a human sandbag.

Sparring partners also have an extremely important role: "feeding moves."

To understand the opponent's habitual moves, movement patterns, attack power and speed, so that the employer can more smoothly perform combo moves and exert technology.

So an excellent sparring partner should have keen observation and the ability to capture the timing of offensive and defensive transitions.

This is the often said "sense of rhythm."

Fang Cheng still remembers a sentence from the boxing coach when teaching elite students:

"The victory point of a duel between masters is to see who disrupts the opponent's rhythm first and makes the opponent follow their own rhythm."

Thinking of this, Fang Cheng's eyes calmed down.

Since the beast is stubborn, then tame it and make it listen to its own call.

Goro Majima's physical strength was very abundant, and he still kept kicking and landing.

The two legs alternated, like whips whipping on Fang Cheng's body.

As if he didn't regard Fang Cheng as a living person at all, only as a breathing humanoid target.

Front kick, side kick, front thrust kick, side pop kick, foot knife kick…

Various technical actions came from various angles like a storm.

Fang Cheng firmly grasped the foot target with both hands, constantly adjusting his pace and target position.

While resisting the attack, he tried to feel the opponent's every attack route and feel where his force point was.

If it was before, it would be very difficult to do so.

After the mental attribute breaks through 20 points, it seems much easier.

Everyone has signs when punching, kicking, and launching an attack.

Breathing, heartbeat, changes in eyes, movement of feet, shaking of shoulders…

The difference between a master and a rookie is just that the moves are more crisp and neat, and they know how to hide their intentions.

However, power cannot be generated out of thin air.

Eventually, it needs to be transmitted through the body to complete an effective strike.

Fang Cheng observed while feeding moves.

Capturing the fleeting opportunity revealed from Goro Majima.

Gradually, he completely understood the opponent's attack line and vaguely grasped a certain feeling.

Sa!

Goro Majima suddenly raised his foot and lifted his knee, a foot knife kick, fiercely kicking towards his face.

Fang Cheng's pupils shrank sharply, and the world in front of him seemed to have a hundredth of a second of slow motion in an instant.

He saw it clearly.

Goro Majima's pupils flickered slightly, and the muscles on his face twitched.

Saw.

This foot passed through the air, drawing a crescent-like arc, rippling with the afterwaves of wind flowing around.

Saw.

The power is transmitted from the sole of the foot to the knee, and then accelerated back to the calf, back of the foot, tiger toe through the twisting of the waist and hips…

Smack!

The sole of the foot was like a knife, kicking into—the target placed in advance on the attack route.
