In the blink of an eye, three months later, Zhang Yan became so exaggerated that Cao Cao even felt that the opponent could now compete with him in terms of pure strength.

Although Cao Cao is not known for his bravery, he is also a captain of Xiaoqi in the Han Dynasty. He has practiced martial arts for decades since he was a child.Zhang Yan can now compete with him in pure physical strength, which is already at the level of a centurion in an ordinary army. How can he still be the weak-looking Luoyang son?

Regardless of Cao Cao's horror at this time, Zhang Yan was already immersed in his own world on the field.

One hammer after another, Zhang Yan felt as if he had inexhaustible strength. Even if Jian Shuo blocked or dodged him, he would not stop, and he smashed out with another hammer.

It's just that what he didn't notice was that although his speed was getting faster and stronger, Zhang Yan's movements gradually deformed as time went by.

This little bit of influence continued to accumulate, until a certain node was passed, and Jian Shuo suddenly took a step forward.

Without swinging the weapon, Zhang Yan just hit it with his shoulder, and Zhang Yan sat down on the ground as if he lost his strength, and the sledgehammer was out of control, and came out.

Chapter 14 There is something in Yuan Benchu's words

Zhang Yan sat down on the ground. He didn't feel sad when he faced Jian Shuo before, but now when his body stopped, the soreness, numbness, swelling and pain accumulated in his muscles all of a sudden rushed up like a tide.

He only felt that his limbs seemed to be broken... Not only the limbs, but also the chest and psoas muscles were sore and painful, and it was as uncomfortable as being bitten by countless ants for a while.

Although it was early spring and the weather was cold, Zhang Yan found that he was already sweating profusely without knowing it, and his whole body revealed a feeling of exhaustion.

Even if he doesn't understand anymore, he already understands at this moment that this is probably because he accidentally injured his body during the competition just now.

And Jian Shuo's collision was precisely because he saw that Zhang Yan's body had reached its limit, so he used this method to break him out of that wanton state.

Sitting on the ground panting violently, Zhang Yan gritted his teeth and got up from the ground after a while.

"That's right, our family underestimated you. I didn't expect that your physique has been tempered to such a point. It's only natural to feel that barrier."

On the opposite side, Jian Shuo, who was holding a pair of round sledgehammers, laughed and looked at Zhang Yan with eyes full of appreciation.

……

It wasn't just Zhang Yan who was sweating, even Jian Shuo was sweating a little during the competition just now, his body could be faintly seen undulating in the wind, and faint white steam came out from the gaps in his armor.

Even if he didn't take the initiative to attack, Jian Shuo, who hadn't been on the battlefield for a long time, still spent a lot of energy.

"Snapped!"

Seeing that Zhang Yan's body was still trembling slightly, obviously standing in front of him with force, Jian Shuo raised his hand and began to pat his body.

Although the movements seemed casual and natural, Zhang Yan found that with Jian Shuo's slapping, the soreness on his body was gradually covered by slight numbness.The blood continued to flow in the body, and a new force gradually emerged from those paralyzed bodies.

Sensing the wonderful changes taking place in his body, Zhang Yan cupped his hands to Jian Shuo, and said, "Thank you uncle for your advice!"

After finishing speaking, he obediently stood aside, waiting for the other party to say something.

He still remembered that the purpose of his coming here today was not to fight Jian Shuo.

Nodding his head slightly, Jian Shuo put the pair of sledgehammers back on the weapon rack, and retrieved Zhang Yan's two-handed hammers, held them in his hands for a few times, and then put them back while smacking his lips. on the shelf next to it.

"This sledgehammer probably weighs more than a hundred catties..."

Jian Shuo secretly clicked his tongue in his heart.

"At the beginning, Meng De, you all come here too."

Not in a hurry to give advice to Zhang Yan, Jian Shuo first called the two people who had been watching the battle, and then patted Zhang Yan on the shoulder and said to the two: "You all saw the competition just now, say Tell me what you think."

……

"Uh... Demao, there seems to be something wrong with your posture just now. Different weapons should have different ways of using them."

Seeing Jian Shuo calling out to the two of them, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao came over one after another.But Cao Cao thought for a moment, and then said firstly: "For example, my sword can chop or pierce. When chopping, you can use the front blade or the middle blade..."

"How to use a weapon depends on the habit of the user, but in most cases, it is definitely not as good as using a knife to chop with a sword."

Pursing his lips, he patted his saber. Cao Cao seemed to not want to hurt Zhang Yan's confidence too much, and tried to choose euphemistic terms, trying to hint at Zhang Yan.

He and Yuan Shao were watching the battle just now, but they saw clearly.That Zhang Yan wields a sledgehammer like a tiger, and at first glance he is really bluffing.But looking carefully, Cao Cao found that Zhang Yan's movements were always showing a strange feeling, and the way of exerting force was even more awkward. It was obviously the first time he used such a heavy weapon.

Not to mention the swing of the sledgehammer, Zhang Yan exhausted all his strength again and again.If it weren't for his good physical fitness, he would have lost his waist by now, lying on the ground humming.

"Hmm... Another thing is, whether it's a light weapon or a heavy weapon, there is an important principle when fighting, that is, don't use up all your strength. You should reserve three parts of your strength for emergencies."

"De Mao's method of using weapons is really rough..."

"Hmph! Meng De, why beat around the bush, he's clearly an amateur who hasn't even seen blood!"

If Cao Cao gave Zhang Yan some face, then Yuan Shao's evaluation can be said to be very direct, straight to the point.

……

"Don't be angry, Yan'er. It was for your own good at the beginning. Besides, he didn't say anything wrong."

A neutral voice came, but it was Jian Shuo who spoke.He nodded to Zhang Yan first, then turned to look at Cao Cao who was beside him.

"And you, Meng De, too. We all know that you have a good relationship with our family's Yan'er and get close. You don't need to deliberately save face for him."

"Speak out the problem openly, and he won't blame you."

Of course Zhang Yan will not be dissatisfied with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.Today, he came to Jian Shuo with the mentality of asking for advice. If Jian Shuo asked Yuan and Cao to talk, he would naturally listen to the other party's opinions and suggestions seriously.

What's more, he is already a 26-year-old reliable adult male.If it is the kind of male lead in fantasy novels who is eighteen, nineteen, or even sixteen or seventeen years old, maybe he will be dissatisfied because Yuan Shao ridicules him.Even if the other person is right, they will hold a grudge because they feel ashamed.But not only did he not harbor a grudge, but he felt that Yuan Shao's current state was not mocking himself, but that there was something in his words.

How should I put it... Zhang Yan has seen this kind of awkwardness in Yuan Shu many times, and it is quite interesting.

"What Brother Benchu ​​said is indeed reasonable..."

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yan took the initiative to step forward, bowed to Yuan Shao, and offered to show his kindness: "Little brother, I come from a humble background. Even if Zhang Changshi is kind and takes me under his knees, he can't compete with a big family like Brother Benchu." In comparison, I hope Brother Benchu ​​can give me more advice."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and winked at Cao Cao, and the two immediately looked at each other and laughed.

"Son of a humble family, no wonder!"

"Brother Benchu, I hope you can say clearly—"

"Humph!"

There was another muffled snort, and Zhang Yan couldn't help touching his nose.Sure enough, the opponent's reckless appearance was exactly the same as Yuan Shu's, and his temper was even worse than Yuan Shu's...

Seeing that the other party didn't want to talk to him anymore, Zhang Yan no longer used his hot face to touch Yuan Shao's cold butt, but turned to look at Jian Shuo who was waiting at the side.

"Yan'er, what he said earlier was not meant to ridicule you, so don't be angry."

Seeing Zhang Yan cast his eyes on himself, Jian Shuo explained.

"Do you know where the biggest problem was when you fought against us just now?"

where is the problem?Isn't it just that I have no combat experience, and I am not from a professional background, so I haven't systematically practiced martial arts...

Zhang Yan was thoughtful, and at the same time he did not idle, repeating what Cao Cao said before.

……

"Probably, it's just like Brother Meng De said?"

After thinking about it for a long time but not coming up with a reason, Zhang Yan turned his questioning gaze to Jian Shuo, waiting for him to give him an accurate answer.

Chapter 15 Jian Shuo's Thoughts

"Yan'er, you don't know that the process of our warriors' continuous improvement in strength is actually a process of continuous improvement in our ability to control our bodies."

"At the beginning, it should be to improve one's physical fitness while breaking the body. At the same time, one should improve one's familiarity with the body and weapons."

"Just like Meng De said, we should reserve three points in everything, but how much is three points?"

"Through continuous martial arts performances, competitions and even fighting in front of the battle, integrate this feeling into your body and let your body remember it. It's like a veteran who only needs to lift a long knife without thinking. Then you know how to slash."

"When you, Yan'er, have achieved this, then you will be a martial artist, and you will be separated from ordinary people."

Smiling, he explained to Zhang Yan the knowledge he had never been exposed to. What Jian Shuo said was not very detailed, but it was easy to understand.

"After that, with the improvement of physical fitness and further improvement of the ability to control the body, there are still thresholds for you to cross. Every time you cross, it is a huge increase in your upper limit. And you, Yaner, It’s stuck on this first threshold.”

"Your physique is already too strong. If you improve it further, your control will not be able to adapt at all. This is actually a kind of protection of your body."

"Although this is the first time we have encountered this kind of situation, I think that as long as your ability to control your body improves, you can break through this first threshold."

"How many such thresholds are there?"

Zhang Yan would not ask such a stupid question.

To put it nicely, I am now stuck on the first threshold.To put it a bit harshly, it would mean that I am not even considered an entry-level person now, but a real outsider.

After breaking through the bottleneck, there are still a few thresholds behind, which is too far away for him.

Zhang Yan is obviously more interested in another problem than the problem that he can't touch in a short time. Now that he knows where the problem is, how should he solve this problem?

Zhang Yan was thoughtful.

According to Jian Shuo, now he needs to improve his ability to control his body.How can the control ability be improved by improving it?

I can't activate the "gene lock" like other protagonists. If he is asked to practice hard for ten years now, then he might as well think about it, and give some benefits to the workers who are working hard to build wonders in the north of the city. Better.

Frowning without any thoughts, Zhang Yan suddenly felt someone pull him.

"Cough cough..."

Turning his head to look, he saw Cao Cao on the side winking his eyes at him, and at the same time nudging his mouth to Yuan Shao on the side.

Yuan Shao?

Looking over Yuan Shao who was pacing aside, Zhang Yan suddenly realized——

That's right, didn't Yuan Shao just say that he is an amateur who has never seen blood, so he just needs to find a way to increase his combat experience!

As Jian Shuo said, no matter performing martial arts or fighting, with the accumulation of experience, one can improve one's control over the body.Among them, fighting with one's life is obviously the best way to quickly familiarize oneself with one's body.

"Thank you, Brother Benchu, for your pointers!"

"Humph!"

Yuan Shao turned his head again, and let out a hum in his nose.

……

After leaving the gate of the barracks, Zhang Yan drove off on the street.After a competition in the school field, the sun has risen high unknowingly, shining on the majestic city wall of Luoyang.The previously quiet street gradually became noisy.

The time of day has probably passed.

Waved goodbye to Jian Shuo who was not far away, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao did not come out to see him off, they had already brought their respective parts to practice, only Jian Shuo sent Zhang Yan out alone.

Driving on the main road of Luoyang City, Zhang Yan was still thinking about what Jian Shuo said to him before leaving.
