Chapter 316 Learning the Blade Skills of Shinto Ninen-ryu School

Xiao Bing and Yanzhi had sex for a long time until the latter begged him to stop. Xiao Bing was a man and he would not betray his feelings, but his body needed an outlet and his mind needed to be released.

No one is a saint in this world. Xiao Bing slept with Yezi every day without doing anything because he felt responsible towards her. But he was not a saint and it would be unbearable for him to remain celibate. People who could resist this temptation had to be a saint, an impotent, or a gay.

A person would need an outlet if he had been restraining himself for a long time, just like when Xiao Bing was in Dragon Teeth. Actually, it wasn’t that Xiao Bing was unfaithful. People like him just needed to release their psychological pressure, or they would become psychos. However, Xiao Bing was sexually active, very obviously so. And everyone in town knew it.

The relationship between Xiao Bing and Yanzhi was very simple. They didn’t have to be responsible for each other, or Xiao Bing would not have seduced her in the first place. Now that he had his own woman, there were things he could do, and things he could not. Otherwise, he would be in big trouble.

Xiao Bing felt a pain on his shoulder as Yanzhi bit him. He smiled wryly and asked, “Hey, are you a dog?”

“Hey, it is your fault for not coming to see me for so long.”

Xiao Bing laughed and said, “I was busy during this period. What happened recently in Jingdu?”

Yanzhi asked curiously, “Haven’t you been in Jingdu for the past two years?”

Xiao Bing could not reveal too much to her, so he said, “No, mainly because I have fewer information channels than you do, so if there was anything particularly interesting, I’d like to ask you about it.”

“Oh.” Yanzhi did not suspect him. She smiled and said, “The city has always been the same. Can there be anything different? But if you want to talk about changes, then there were indeed. For example, some power struggles, some rich young people just won’t calm down.”

“Rich young people…” Xiao Bing gave a laugh and thought nothing of it. In Xiao Bing’s opinion, children of officials or the rich were all troublemakers, so he went back to bantering flirtatiously with Yanzhi.

They tossed in bed for a few hours until it was already very late outside. Thinking of that it was really inconvenient to spend the night here, plus he still had some business to see the next day, Xiao Bing had to say goodbye to Yanzhi. The woman helped Xiao Bing put on his clothes. Xiao Bing smiled and said, “Don’t see me out. Go to sleep. I’ll get going.”

“Then… when will you come again?”

Xiao Bing thought he would come back after completing the task in Country R and asked about All-knowing Man, so he said, “One week or two at the earliest, no more than a month.”

Xiao Bing didn’t know what the mission was before until Monitor told him. It could not be delayed for two or three months. He had to complete it within one month at the latest. Otherwise, things would become complicated. Once the other side finds something out, his efforts would be in vain.

Yanzhi nodded. She got up from the bed, naked… and kissed Xiao Bing’s mouth on her tiptoes. Then she said with a smile, “You may go now.”

Xiao Bing left the room and closed the door. When he passed the lobby on the first floor on his way out, he waved at the front desk where a few beautiful women were smiling sweetly at him. Whoever paid them would receive the best services from them.

Xiao Bing came out and found a remote place to remove the mask before he found a taxi and left.

He returned to the hotel, washed himself, and went to sleep.

The next morning, Wu Kai came over to pick Xiao Bing up. Xiao Bing sat in his car and asked, “Where are we going now?”

Wu Kai said, “Taekwondo Training Base. We have already rented it. Director said it will be reserved for you the next few days.”

“Okay.” Xiao Bing nodded.

The car stopped at the entrance of the Taekwondo Hall. Wu Kai said, “Mr. Xiao, I will not go in with you. The Director is waiting for you inside.”

“Thank you.”

Xiao Bing answered and got out of the car. He pushed open the door and it was quiet inside. It was a large venue, and Monitor was standing in the middle of the field, watching Xiao Bing with a smile.

Xiao Bing’s lips twisted a little into a hint of a sneer. As a sharp whistle sounded behind him, a long knife stabbed toward his heart like a lightning.

Xiao Bing felt it. Without revealing all of his strength, he slid aside slightly to avoid the man’s Katana. He turned around and happened to see a medium-sized man in his 40s holding a Katana and rushing toward him.

After missing Xiao Bing, the man used his backhand. He swept his knife across toward Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing bent backward as the knife scythed just above his face. Xiao Bing kicked toward the man’s face.

At this time, Xiao Bing was only sparring with the man and did not use the mighty power within him. This opponent wouldn’t have been Xiao Bing’s match otherwise.

The two of them fought hand-to-hand. Xiao Bing only defended himself using his normal force, but he found his opponent very tricky. He barely managed to suppress him after quite a number of strokes and knocked off his knife after dozens of tries.

The middle-aged man took a breath, and then looked at Xiao Bing in admiration. He said, “The legendary king of Dragon Teeth is really powerful.”

Xiao Bing coldly said, “I am not in Dragon Teeth anymore.”

Monitor smiled and said, “This is the martial arts research expert of Country R I mentioned before, Mr. Kang Zeli. Mr. Kang has studied Country R martial arts for nearly 20 years, even better than the ordinary warriors of the country. He attacked you because he was trying to introduce more things about Country R’s martial arts. He will teach you everything he knows, without reservation. As for how much you can learn, it’s all up to you.”

Xiao Bing nodded. He felt a little relieved and said in praise, “The martial arts of Country R should not be underestimated. The knife skill Mr. Kang performed is completely different from ours. It’s too tricky and strange to defend against. If I didn’t reach a new level, I would’ve failed to avoid Mr. Kang’s knife.”

Kang Zeli smiled and said, “Know your enemy and know yourself. The best tradition of Country R is the spirit of learning. Our country fell behind these advanced countries in ancient times because we didn’t know the importance of learning. We were too arrogant. This is why I have concentrated all my attention to study Country R intently. In addition to studying their martial arts for nearly 20 years, I also have had some simple understanding of the culture which I will fill you in this time by the way. I hope it will be helpful.”

Xiao Bing said, “It will. Thank you, Mr. Kang.”

“Good.”

Monitor finished his work and said with a smile, “Fine, I will give you both time. Xiao Bing, in three days, no matter how much you learn, you will have to undertake the mission. Do your best.”

Xiao Bing nodded solemnly. Didn’t matter if he was willing to accept the mission when he first came, but now that he had started, he would take it seriously. Moreover, this task was very important to his country. Xiao Bing had always considered himself a soldier and he was duty-bound to safeguard national interests.

“Let’s sit down and talk about it before I show you.”

“Okay.”

“In Country R, the warriors usually use two common weapons: a kind of long sword and Katana, both of which are called kendo. So Country R is confused about this. The so-called kendo can use a knife or a sword. Since I am not familiar with swords, I will teach you how to use a Katana.”

“Okay.” Xiao Bing wore a sincere look. Xiao Bing respected whoever could teach him. Even if the person was weaker than him, he still could be a good student.

“Katana is the most common weapon, and it is also an exclusive equipment for a warrior. The general warriors are honored to have good Katana. There are many martial arts schools in Country R and the one I have studied is of the strong genre: Shinto Ninen-ryu School. So I will mainly tell you about it.”

Kang Zeli talked about the characteristics of Shinto Ninen-ryu School in detail, and then began to show Xiao Bing from scratch. They began to practice it and Xiao Bing made great progress in that one day.

When the day turned dark, Kang Zeli wiped his sweat away and said, “Mr. Xiao is really a genius for practicing martial arts. It takes a few months for others to complete the work, but Mr. Xiao finishes it in one day. I am more and more confident that Mr. Xiao can learn Shinto Ninen-ryu School in three days. However, it is not simple to grasp real skills. In fact, this genre is very strong, and I dare not say that I have mastered it.”

Xiao Bing said, “70% or 80% will be enough. Mr. Kang, I want to invite you to dinner at night.”

“Thank you.”

Although Kang Zeli was much older than Xiao Bing, he was a very nice man. Maybe because they were both experts in martial arts, they got along very well. After putting down the knives, they went to have dinner together.

Although Kang Zeli’s strength was far weaker than that of Xiao Bing, he had studied martial arts of Country R for many years so he knew tricks that Xiao Bing didn’t. Xiao Bing believed he helped him a lot today since he not only learned the skills of Shinto Ninen-ryu School, but also figured out some martial arts ideas that could be integrated into those skills. Martial arts itself should be all-encompassing and there should be no geographical or national distinction. Xiao Bing was unable to comprehend by himself, but after he finished practicing today, he felt that he had made huge progress.

In the next two days, Xiao Bing learned all the knife skills of this genre. Even though he did not master it, at least he looked as if he did. It was enough for Xiao Bing to act confidently in front of people and not be caught.

Again, Monitor invited Xiao Bing into his office.
