Now, they only hoped that Lü Hongya would not bicker with them. Otherwise, they would be in big trouble. They had been secretly discussing something in the corner. A moment later, a staff member suddenly walked over and whispered to Lü Hongya, “Madam, there are a few ladies downstairs who want to look for you, but they are not qualified to come to the second floor. Do you want to go?”
This puzzled Lü Hongya, but she did not refuse. To be honest, she was really not used to the atmosphere on the second floor. Therefore, she quickly nodded and came downstairs. She happened to see a few hot girls standing there with nervous expressions.
“What’s wrong? The victor wasn’t decided just now. Are you going to start again?” Lü Hongya crossed her arms, thinking that these people were here to cause trouble.
Unexpectedly, after the few of them looked at each other, they quickly cupped their fists and bowed to Lü Hongya. “I’m sorry!”
The sudden change in attitude stunned Lü Hongya. However, looking at their fearful gazes, Lü Hongya understood that it should be related to what had happened previously. But she did not know what to do when they suddenly cupped their fists and bowed.
The hot girls seemed to be a little awkward now. After saying this to Lü Hongya, they quickly left. Lü Hongya was left standing alone, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
What was going on?
The seminar finally returned to the right track. Different martial arts researchers from all over the country began to show off their skills.
Fists and kicks were only an appetizer. Weapons of different lengths were the highlight of an eye-opener. On the training platform on the first floor, a young man who looked to be in his twenties was holding a big knife.
The moment he went on stage, Su Yun subconsciously straightened his body. This scene happened to be seen by Lin Guodong, who was beside him. He was quite shrewd. He did not reveal anything about this. He only sat there quietly and accompanied Su Yun to watch the knife technique practice.
As he watched, Su Yun realized that there seemed to be a unique way to use knife techniques in Chinese martial arts. It looked like a very heavy saber, but it seemed to be weightless in this young man’s hand. All of his actions were very smooth without any pause.
Although this routine did not have any lethality, Su Yun valued this young man’s control over the knife. This saber was like an extension of his arm in his hand. When he waved it, it was not as stumbling as he was.
This naturally piqued Su Yun’s curiosity, and he began to take it seriously. “Mr. Lin, how heavy is this saber?”
Lin Guodong was slightly stunned by Su Yun’s sudden question. Then, he hurriedly replied, “The saber in this young man’s hand is a relatively conventional saber used for martial arts equipment. The blade is 35 centimeters long, 4 centimeters wide, and 0.1 centimeters thick. The handle is 12 centimeters long and three centimeters wide. It weighs 1.5 kilograms.”
Lin Guodong was indeed an expert. With just a glance, he could tell the data of this saber in detail. This weight was indeed not heavy. After all, it was only a practice saber. Even so, there was still a way to use a saber so smoothly.
This made Su Yun realize that the reason why he had not made any progress in his knife technique was probably because he still lacked understanding of the use of the knife. Who was Lin Guodong? After hearing Su Yun’s question and reaction just now, he roughly understood something.
“Master Su, are you interested in sabers and want to practice them?”
Lin Guodong’s words could be said to have pierced Su Yun’s heart. He nodded gently. “Indeed, but I don’t know much about knives.”
When Lin Guodong heard this, he immediately perked up. He had been thinking about how to get closer to Su Yun. Wasn’t this opportunity here? At this thought, Lin Guodong quickly looked at Su Yun and said, “Although my Lin family’s martial arts is not focused on knife techniques, I still have some understanding. Master Su, if you don’t mind, I can teach you a thing or two.” Upon hearing this, Su Yun’s eyes lit up. This was his goal for this time. “Please guide me.”
Although Lin Guodong had always been very polite to Su Yun, Su Yun did not drag it out and always responded very politely. A visible smile hung on Lin Guodong’s face. He could finally find a topic that could last.
“In the history of Chinese martial arts, sabers have always occupied a very strong color. As the saying goes, savers are the guts of a hundred soldiers. They are one of the most important instruments in Chinese martial arts.
“Since ancient times, people who practiced martial arts had used sabers the most. They had also summarized and created many saber techniques to form many saber sects.
“The existing saber techniques were the Eight Golden Lock Saber, the Eight Trigram Saber, the Sun and Moon Qiankun Saber, the Shaolin 18 Roll Saber, the Taiji Saber, the Plum Saber, and so on. I wonder which sect Master Su is interested in?”
Lin Guodong was indeed a professional. He could be so detailed with just a casual sentence. However, he had misunderstood. What Su Yun wanted to practice was not a Chinese martial arts saber technique. He only wanted to understand the key to using the knife and walk his own cultivation path. “Mr. Lin, my cultivation method is rather special, so I don’t want to practice these paths. I just want to understand the essence of the saber technique.”
These words puzzled Lin Guodong. He had always thought that Su Yun was a martial arts expert and had special abilities. However, when he heard this, he could not help but be puzzled..
