The 12 Paths Spring Kick

In the energy skills class in the afternoon, the students did not learn any substantial content.

From the memories of Chi Qiaosong's predecessor, he now understood why he stopped learning energy skills after attending a few Purple Cloud Serenity energy skill lessons. It was simply too illusory.

Even if you found your energy fluctuation and could cultivate a mouthful of Qi, you had no combat power at all during the Three Disciple Planes, so learning energy skills was equivalent to not learning them.

As for using Qi for battle in the following Three Master Planes, the difficulty was like taking the entry test for Tsinghua University and Peking University. Who would be this confident?

Furthermore, the energy skills teacher, Liu Chun, was lazy and gentle, and students even called him "Chunchunzi" behind his back. As a result, he commanded no respect, which indirectly affected students' interest in energy skills.

However, no matter how illusory it was, Chi Qiaosong was determined to learn about energy skills because this was the only energy skill taught by the Military Academy.

He stayed in the dormitory that night. With the gifts he had prepared in advance, he found Kong Hongcai, who had just woken up in the teacher's dormitory early the next morning.

"Mr. Kong."

"What's this for?" Kong Hongcai opened the bag and saw the jerky, tobacco, and alcohol inside. Although his tone was polite, he did not push the bag away.

"I feel that I have reached a bottleneck when I learned the Crazed Bull Heavy Fist, and there is no new progress in my practice, so I want to learn another martial arts subject."

"Learn another martial arts subject?" Kong Hongcai pondered. "I don't mean to lecture, but Chi Qiaosong, your martial arts aptitude is very average. You are relying on the understanding of life and death to barely make breakthroughs when, in fact, you should establish your foundation steadily rather than recklessly. So learning another martial arts subject is not a solution to your problems."

This was what he said with meaning.

Martial arts was like building a house. If Chi Qiaosong's foundation was weak, how could he build a house on it?

Chi Qiaosong shook his head and said, "Teacher, I'm just learning a new introductory martial arts subject. Mr. Kong, don't you also know the 'Spring Kick'? I want to try learning it."

"It's the '12 Paths Spring Kick'... If you practice martial arts like this, I'm afraid you will damage your body."

"I'll spend more money on medicinal herbs."

Seeing Chi Qiaosong's insistence, Kong Hongcai didn't say any more on account of the gifts.

"Okay, if I have time in the afternoon, you can learn the 12 Paths Spring Kick from me."

"Thank you, sir!"

In the morning, Chi Qiaosong no longer practiced the Crazed Bull Heavy Fist. Instead, he switched to practicing the 12 Paths Spring Kick in the afternoon. This was an introductory leg technique. After practicing until death, it looked like he had achieved the Beginner Rank of the Wrestler Plane.

When Kong Hongcai was not free, he would attend the energy skill classes and recite the Purple Cloud Serenity scriptures with Liu Chun.

[Thud!]

[Thud!!!]

Chi Qiaosong kicked his legs high and kicked the wooden stakes among the weeds in the backyard until they were making loud thudding noises.

After he put his leg down, his body was slightly warm. Now that he was at the Wrestler Plane, it was not as difficult as before to learn introductory martial arts. But after a few days of hard training, he felt more and more that his body lacked a little spirituality in martial arts.

Muscle coordination frequency, joint twist range, and rhythm changes made him feel rigid.

"If you don't have the Golden Fingers of an acre of thin fields, you will never be able to enter the Wrestler Plane after a lifetime of fighting with your predecessor." Chi Qiaosong sighed, his body rigid and uncomfortable.

However, when he cast the Crazed Bull Heavy Fist, there was no sense of stagnation.

As if he was a martial arts genius, he could control his body as he wanted to fight wherever he wanted.

"This further proves that the strength of the one-acre field can change my skin and bones with just one fruit!" He was not discouraged, even if he was not a martial arts genius.

He relied on farming, and sooner or later, he would reach the Grandmaster Plane.

A week went by in the blink of an eye.

On the weekends, Chi Qiaosong did not choose to stay at the Military Academy but instead went home on a donkey.

There was a slight change at the door of his house. Father Chi and Mother Chi brought a batch of old bricks from the city at a low price and spread them on the lawn in front of the door. They wanted to repair the small compound so that they could still walk when it rained.

"Big brother!" Chi Xiaoya happily greeted him.

"I have food in the bag. You can find it yourself." Tossing the snakeskin bag aside, Chi Qiaosong rushed to his farmhouse.

Father Chi helped to care for the one-acre field. Currently, there was nothing amiss with it. The lentil seedlings in the field were already covered with green lentils—bunches after bunches.

There was no doubt that the next lentil harvest would be plentiful.

However, he had no intention of paying attention to the lentils, so he walked directly to the middle of the field and looked at the bay trees swaying in the wind. In the bushes, a faint little yellow flower bloomed.

"The 12 Paths Spring Kick condenses 1 percent..."

At this, Chi Qiaosong was overjoyed. He exclaimed, "Wonderful!"

There was a pack of ready-made fertilizer in the material storage. He did not hesitate and chose to fertilize. A light fell from the sky and fell on the bay tree.

The small yellow flowers bloomed and withered, and the small black fruits ripened quickly.

The fragrance was tangy and refreshing.

Chi Qiaosong picked a black fruit and put it in his mouth, chewing it lightly. It had almost no taste, and it turned into a breath of fresh air and entered his stomach. The next moment, a familiar warm current rose and spread to his limbs.

A mysterious snippet of information kept flashing in his mind. The 12 Paths Spring Kick was experiencing layers and layers of changes.

He involuntarily circulated the currents of the 12 Paths Spring Kick in his body as his long legs brought him flying across the lentil field. Then, with an abrupt turn, he jumped over the fence and came to a big tree.

He raised his leg and broke the tree trunk with a kick.

He even kicked the top, middle, and bottom of the tree in swift, consecutive movements. It caused the trunk to break into three parts: the top, middle, and bottom.

The tree trunk fell, but Chi Qiaosong did not let it go. His long legs were like a scythe. He kicked the branches one by one, breaking them one by one, and finally hit the half stump, kicking hard with the back of his leg.

[Bang!]

The stump immediately shattered into a pile of rotten wood.

"Huhu..."

Chi Qiaosong maintained his kicking posture and waited for the heat of his body to subside. Then, he slowly retracted his legs and assumed his standing position. "The increase in strength is not significant, though it seems that I have achieved the strengthening of the body using entry-level martial arts.

"Nevertheless, I have completely mastered the 12 Paths Spring Kick!"

He was still unsure of his combat effectiveness or whether he had jumped from the Beginner Rank to the Intermediate Rank, but he was definitely much stronger than before. If he were to fight with the Mountain Drum again, he could kill it with relative ease.

Chi Qiaosong wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked back at the one-acre field.

[Grade 1 field: One acre

Fertilizer storage: Not available

Spirit root source (1): Bay tree (Crazed Bull Heavy Fist – Complete, 12 Paths Spring Kick – Achievement)

External Spiritual Root (0): Not available

Spirit plant: Lentils]

He ran out of fertilizer.

The information on the 12 Paths Spring Kick was saved for viewing.

"Like the Crazed Bull Heavy Fist, the 12 Paths Spring Kick also requires an opportunity to improve from Achievement to Complete." Chi Qiaosong thought to himself.

However, there was one thing.

He felt that he had to find time to release the news of his breakthrough to the Wrestler Plane so that he could then learn more advanced martial arts.

This entry-level physical martial arts did not significantly improve his strength. No matter how much he learned, it would still be difficult to help him advance to the next plane. It was a waste of fertilizer.

"When I go hunting in the mountains, I hope to encounter a tiger."

When his 12 Paths Spring Kick had reached the Achievement level, he felt like he was floating in the clouds when he was walking. He wondered if he would fly if there was a gust of wind.

He could not feel the fatigue of climbing mountains in the past.

The musculoskeletal membrane at his Achilles tendon had strengthened a lot, and his running and jumping ability had greatly improved. He was overjoyed at these changes.
