Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 277 Progress
At five o'clock the next morning, Chen Chuan got up, washed, and packed up, ready to leave. After he was dressed, he seemed to sense something and glanced towards the door.

He straightened his collar, walked over and opened the door. Surprisingly, an unexpected person was waiting there, Gao Qiu, a fighter from the Wilderness School.

He said, "Senior Gao?"

Gao Qiu didn't have any bandages on his body, and except for the fact that he was missing a hand, his mental state seemed no different from when he went on stage yesterday.

He said very seriously: "Student Chen, I learned your accommodation from the cruise ship management, and I came here specially to thank you. If it weren't for you yesterday, I would have died there."

As he said that, he threw something over.

Chen Chuan grabbed it, spread it out and saw that it was a polished, round and smooth fang pendant.

"If you are interested in practicing in the wilderness, you can come to us with this thing. The people of the wilderness sect will welcome you."

Chen Chuan nodded, and he looked at Gao Qiu's empty right arm again. After losing an arm, the Wilderness Clan would not use any implants, so his future combat effectiveness would probably be greatly reduced.

Gao Qiu noticed his gaze, but he was very calm and said, “If we could find the broken bones and reconnect them, they could grow back, but now it seems impossible.

But it doesn't matter. I have tried my best to fight. The experience of failure is also a treasure. I will teach it to the younger generations and let them pass it on. The Wilderness School is not just one person, but everyone. Remember that those who fail will succeed. "

He looked to the side and said, "It seems someone is here to see you. I'm leaving now. We'll see each other again sometime."

Chen Chuan turned his head and saw Lu Shiqi walking towards him from one end of the cabin corridor. The difference was that after a night, the broken arm had been restored to its original state. It was unknown whether it had been reconnected or replaced with a new one.

The advantage of implants lies here, in some places things can be replaced and implanted through surgery.

When this man and Gao Qiu passed each other, they nodded to each other. Although they were opponents in the fighting arena, there was no deep hatred between them.

Lu Shiqi walked up to Chen Chuan and said, "Student Chen, I'm not very good at speaking. I'm here to thank you on behalf of the company. In the company's words, you have saved the company's assets." He handed over a card, "This is the company's thank you. I hope you can accept it."

Chen Chuan took it and saw that it was a gold card of Wansheng Group. Was it a direct payment this time? The thanks from Lu Shiqi Company seemed very practical.

He put the gold card in his pocket and said, "Then I'll take it."

When Lu Shiqi saw that he accepted it, he didn't say anything else. He nodded to him and turned away.

Chen Chuan returned to the room and continued to pack. At 6:30 in the morning, the four of them left the Rhino Cruise and took a speedboat back to the port. In front of the four of them, Pan Xiaode was eager to try and said, "Student Chen, we haven't competed before. How about we find a place to compete now?"

Tan Zhi said: "It's not good to be friendly, we have to compete."

Pan Xiaode stretched out a fist and said, "We fighters communicate with each other through fists. Only after being punched by friends can we have true friendship with each other."

Chen Chuanxin said, "Maybe I'll have to use my fists next time."

He said sincerely: "I want to fight with classmate Pan, but the time may be difficult to control. I have already made an appointment with the teacher, and I can't keep the teacher waiting for a long time. Let's make an appointment another day."

Pan Xiaode agreed very much. He felt that he and Chen Chuan were not much different in level. If they fought, it would definitely take an hour and a half. If it was a draw, it might take a whole day. It was really hard to control the time. Besides, he couldn't let Qi Huixin not participate in the competition with Chen Chuan, right? He had to find a good time.

He said regretfully, "Then it will be next time."

After parting with the two, Chen Chuan took Tan Zhi's car back. This time he did not go back to Xuan Gong Building, but asked Tan Zhi to take him directly to Teacher Zheng's house.

He said goodbye to Tan Zhi in front of the house and went inside. He met Teacher Zheng and greeted him. Teacher Zheng smiled and said, "Did you have a good holiday?"

Chen Chuanshuo said: “There are a lot of surprises.”

Teacher Zheng said, "That's good. You young people should be nervous when you need to be nervous, and relax when you need to relax. Well, today's training is still about defense. Follow me."

Chen Chuan followed him into the training room, and after a few exercises, he saw that Zheng Tongtong was already ready.

The first two training sessions were about parrying a heavy sword and a light sword respectively. However, this time, Zheng Tongtong held two swords in her left and right hands. After she was reminded, people realized that the two swords were one light and one heavy. They just looked exactly the same on the outside, so it was difficult to tell them apart even if they were told in advance.

Normally, when a person holds two knives of different weights, his center of gravity and footsteps would be slightly different, but there was no sign of this when Zheng Tongtong was moving.

Just from this move, it can be seen that her strength level is extremely high, otherwise she can't do this. If he can do this, then Xiong Jianyi would not be able to judge the next move by observing his movement rhythm.

Zheng Tongtong waved the two knives and said, "Junior, are you ready?" Chen Chuan raised the knife, stood firmly and nodded.

Zheng Tongtong didn't say a word, he leaned forward, picked up two knives and slashed at him in turn.

Since Chen Chuan only had one knife to use for defense, Zheng Tongtong's pace was slow at the beginning. But as he adapted, the pace became faster and faster. For a while, the field was filled with flying knives and continuous clanging sounds.

He soon discovered that such defense was extremely difficult, because not only did he have to change his strength, but he also needed to increase his speed. Often, just as he was about to neutralize the heavy sword, the light sword would slash up at him, or he would barely block the light sword but had to be busy changing his strength to block the next heavy blow.

He needs to change the rhythm reasonably between the two different coping methods and respond quickly and timely, especially when he is standing still and cannot dodge, which makes it even more difficult.

This time, it took him two days to adapt.

On the third day, Teacher Zheng called him over and taught him a set of breathing techniques to adjust and change the strength.

And told him that next he would beat the rhythm with his palms beside him, and every time he struck, Chen Chuan had to deal with the light sword in the same way as he would deal with the heavy sword, and the heavy sword in the same way as he would deal with the light sword. And when he stopped striking, he needed to change back to the normal way, and there could not be any confusion.

As for the collision caused by the reverse use of force, there is no need to worry, because Zheng Tongtong will change the force one step ahead. If the method he uses is correct, then there will be no problem.

In fact, it is okay to simply deal with the changes in the sword slash, but when it is necessary to cooperate with Teacher Zheng's high-five, it becomes very difficult because it will disrupt his rhythm.

The clapping sounds were sometimes rapid, sometimes slow, sometimes only intermittent, and sometimes suddenly continuous, and they kept changing, and they were made specifically when the rhythm of his breathing changed. If you were not careful, everything would easily go wrong.

But even so, Zheng Tongtong didn't make even a single mistake, and her breathing could change at any time, which was quite amazing. It seemed that she was already very familiar with this kind of change.

Another two days passed before Chen Chuan mastered the trick of this breathing method and was gradually able to keep up with the changes in rhythm.

However, this was just the beginning. Teacher Zheng then changed his method and told him that when he hit the table with his fists, he should block it with the same method as he would with a heavy knife, and when he hit with his palms, he should block it with the same method as he would with a light knife.

With the repeated training of this kind of changes, Chen Chuan's defensive skills are constantly improving, but this is only the basics, because at this point, all the attacks are just horizontal cuts.

So on the sixth day, Teacher Zheng asked Zheng Tongtong to add changes in the strength of the sword.

This is actually more difficult than dealing with a heavy sword or a light sword, because before contact, it is impossible to judge what the force is like, and it can only change in the instant of contact. In addition, Zheng Tongtong's two swords are flying back and forth, and the sword moves are constantly changing, which tests his ability to respond.

This time, it took me three full days to barely catch up.

Teacher Zheng was quite satisfied to see that he had adapted to the situation and it didn't take him too long. He said, "You are making rapid progress. You have already mastered the basic defensive skills. This month's training will stop here. Next month, we will start the next stage. I will teach you how to attack."

Chen Chuan nodded. These days, although it seemed that all the alienated tissues in his body were sore and tense after he went home every day, the feeling of growing every day was very good and fulfilling.

In the past, he had only experienced this feeling of continuous improvement when he had just started learning martial arts from Yu Gang. It was really a long time since he had experienced this feeling.

In addition to Teacher Zheng's dedicated teaching, the sparring partner Zheng Tongtong also took every step very seriously. Such a good sparring partner is really rare.

He expressed his sincere gratitude: "Thank you, Mr. Zheng, and thank you, Ms. Zheng."

Teacher Zheng smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm a good student, so I can teach easily. You can also think about it more on your own. What the teacher teaches you is just what he teaches you. Only when you understand it yourself can it be yours."

Chen Chuan said hello, said goodbye to Teacher Zheng and his daughter, and then left Teacher Zheng's house. He arrived at the station, but before he got on the tram, he received a message from the Border Passport Processing Bureau.

This is to inform him that the period of exposure to the sun's rays will be scheduled for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Let him choose a time by himself and the processing bureau will arrange it for him.

He thought about it and decided that the day after tomorrow was a holiday, so he would schedule it for tomorrow. He quickly confirmed the time and submitted it directly through the boundary certificate.

Just five minutes later, another voice message came in, showing that the source was Canglong Company. After accessing it, a voice sounded in my ears:

"Hello, Mr. Chen. I am Yin Fang, assistant to Director Sun of Canglong Company. We have received an application for Yaoguang Irradiation from the Processing Bureau. Your name is on it. According to Director Sun's instructions, we will give you an additional three hours of quota each month. The physical receipt has been sent out. Please check it."
