Blue Star at 13:50 on July 2, 2081, the most prosperous city in the Xia Kingdom, “Binhai City”. At this time, the clouds were dense, the thunder was roaring, and a torrential rain was coming.
“Summer thunderstorms are coming.” In a room on the top floor of Xingkong Dou Pavilion, a young man was watching the dark clouds and lightning outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows. “Crackling” began to have raindrops hitting the window glass.
The young man walked to the center of the room, put his hands on the ground, and slowly and steadily performed a handstand. First, he stood upright with both hands, and then put one hand away and became a one-handed handstand with his right hand.
“Breathe~~~ Breathe~~~”
The sound of breathing sounded in his ears, Xu Jingming felt the tightening of the core muscles of his body and the stimulation of his right arm by the weight of his entire body.
In the first three minutes, the arm was very comfortable, and the muscles, bones and muscles of the arm were deeply stimulated, but in the fourth minute, the palm muscles were a little bit painful, and the fifth minute was even more painful, but Xu Jingming was used to it and insisted on it. After five minutes, I naturally switched to a left-handed handstand.
“Dad’s waist, I don’t know if it’s better today.” When he stood upside down with one hand, Xu Jingming’s thoughts were floating, and he thought of his father. My father is in his 60s this year, and his waist injury is an old problem. Yesterday, I heard from my mother on the phone that my father had a back injury when he was carrying heavy objects…
“When you’re done with your recent work, go back to your hometown.” Xu Jingming thought.
The one-handed handstand is not a training method taught by the national team, but taught by my father when I was a child.
Xu Jingming was in poor health when he was a child. His father taught him martial arts to strengthen his body, including the “one-arm handstand”. Because the long-term practice effect is very good, it has also become one of the five pillars he practices every day. He practiced three-nine in winter and three-fu in summer. It has been practiced for twenty years. Even if he is sick and injured, he will persevere. There is no special reason. will not break. As the saying goes, “If you don’t practice qigong, you will get old and useless.” This so-called gong is the basic daily skill.
After a three to five day interruption, the muscles, bones, muscles and other aspects will decline.
After practicing the one-arm handstand, Xu Jingming walked to the desk and sat down, took a few sips of water, and watched the rainstorm outside the window.
“As soon as the humidity is heavy, my leg starts to hurt.” Xu Jingming looked at his right leg, reached out and rubbed lightly, “I never stop exercising every day, but my right leg… Not much better.”
“If my right leg is not injured, I should be expected to be No. 1 in the world.” Xu Jingming said silently.
Injuries are the most fearful thing every martial arts master will encounter in his career. The “broken leg” injury was a nightmare for Xu Jingming.
“DiDiDi…” Suddenly a voice sounded.
Xu Jingming raised his head and said, “Xiao Bai, answer the video call.”
A ray of light condensed in front of Xu Jingming, converging into a two-meter-high picture. In the picture, a burly fat man was sitting in the car, smiling and shouting: “Old Xu, we have already left the hotel, it is estimated that 20 We will be at your Star Arena in about minutes. Haha, we haven’t seen each other in over a year, so I’ll have a good drink tonight.”
“Don’t worry, Big Bear, I have already made a reservation for a barbecue restaurant.” Xu Jingming said with a smile when he saw his childhood friend, “It’s raining heavily, be careful on your way.”
“Don’t worry.” The burly fat man continued, “These guys in the provincial training team admire you very much. They want to see your marksmanship. Later, you have to give them good pointers and let them understand and The gap between the world’s top players.”
“Nowadays, young people are more powerful than each other. It would be nice if I didn’t capsize.” Xu Jingming said with a smile.
“How could it capsize? I hope you can capsize. You capsize, it means that our provincial team has produced another genius.” The big fat man laughed, “Okay, let’s stop chatting, we’ll see you later. .”
“See you later.” Xu Jingming stretched out his hand, and the image in mid-air dissipated.
To conduct training for the Jiangnan Provincial Training Team for ten days and charge a fee of 50,000 Blue Star Coins. In fact, this amount of money is not even enough for the venue fee. But for the fighting gym, it can provide training for the provincial training team, and it is also an advertising sign, and it can also attract more fighting enthusiasts to become members of the fighting gym.
“Professional players have to make money when they retire.” Xu Jingming got up and went to take a shower and change his clothes.
Fighting professional players sound beautiful, but in fact they only earn some ‘appearance fees’ when they are at their peak. The career income of over 100 million yuan is pitiful in the world, and most professional players have enough food and clothing.
As for retirement, making money is even more difficult. Although Xu Jingming is also a world-class martial arts master, he is only the top eight in the world martial arts competition. The income of the fighting industry is in the shape of a pyramid, and there are very few spires! The income of the number one is exaggeratedly high, and the income of the second, third, and fourth… will plummet.

Xu Jingming was standing at the gate of the Xingkong Dou Pavilion, accompanied by several staff members, and saw an electric bus approaching from the rain curtain from a distance.
When the electric bus stopped, the door opened, and more than ten people from the Jiangnan training team got off one after another.
“Big Bear.” Xu Jingming saw the burly fat man who got off the bus first, that was his good brother Liu Chongyuan.
“Old Xu.” Liu Chongyuan came over and hugged Xu Jingming excitedly, and slapped Xu Jingming’s back with a big slap, Xu Jingming’s face was bitter, and it could only be regarded as a massage.
Liu Chongyuan, 2.03 meters tall, weighs more than 180 kilograms, like an upright bear. At that time, he was also a professional martial arts master, with a shield and an axe. When he ranked the highest in the World Martial Arts League, he also reached the 39th place, so he was able to secure a firm position in the Provincial Sports Bureau.
“This is Coach Xu.” Liu Chongyuan grinned and said, “Coach Xu, who you have been thinking about!”
“Xu Jingming!”
“Gun Devil Xu Jingming!”
“I saw a real person!” The members of the provincial team were a little excited. As people in the industry, they naturally admired this senior.
Xu Jingming looked at the team members as if he saw himself back then.
Young and energetic!
It’s not like myself, I was in the martial arts competition and had to retire with an injury.
Xu Jingming smiled: “Achen, take them to choose weapons.”
“Yes, Brother Xu.” The young staff member replied.
“Big Bear, let’s wait for them on the third floor first.” Xu Jingming and Liu Chongyuan, the good brothers, happily went to the third floor first.
…
The weapon room of the Xingkong Dou Pavilion is full of 500 square meters. The number of various cold weapons such as knives, spears, swords, sticks, shields, axes, hammers, flails, etc. is amazing. These are martial arts competition equipment, such as swords, not only Without opening the front, the surface is also wrapped with a layer of buffer material, which greatly improves the safety. Like long guns, these game guns have data on the barrels: length, head diameter, and weight. There are hundreds of long guns, which are lined up against the wall.
“As expected of a star-space fighting hall, Binhai City’s first-class fighting hall has enough weapons.” The eleven members of the provincial training team all used long spears, so they participated in Xu Jingming’s training.
In terms of marksmanship alone, Xu Jingming is recognized as the top ten of all professional martial arts masters in history.
The game spear data was clear, and the eleven team members quickly selected their usual weapons.
“This is the first time I saw Xu Jingming in real life. It looks very ordinary. It doesn’t have the deterrent effect in the video.” A tall man tried his spear and said at the same time.
“I feel a lot thinner than in the video,” said another immature teenager.
“It’s thin.” A burly man nodded and said, “When he didn’t retire, I watched him play several times live. According to the information released by the Martial Arts League, he was 1.78 meters tall and weighed 93. Kilograms. I have lost a lot of weight now, it is estimated that at most 85 kilograms.”
These provincial team members are discussing.
They all know that a height of 1.78 meters and a weight of more than 80 kilograms may be slightly fat for ordinary people. But for professional martial arts masters, the muscles and bones are heavy and the proportion of muscles is high, but they are slightly thinner.
“As weight goes down, strength must go down as well.”
“I don’t know how much strength there is.”
“Some professional players give up training after retiring, their bodies are deformed, and their strength is much worse.”
The team members are talking.
“I also want to see how far I am from the World Martial Arts Competition. Who would think that he is a bit lighter, and I don’t know how much strength is left.” The burly man was a little unwilling. He was also selected once last year. The goal of the national training team is also the highest competition in the fighting world – the World Martial Arts Competition. Originally, there was expectation for Xu Jingming, who had entered the World Martial Arts Competition twice, but now he is a little disappointed.
After losing weight, how much strength does Xu Jingming have? Is there still the domineering power of the ‘Gun Devil’ back then?
“Even if the strength declines, the experience is still there.” The tall man beside him smiled, “It’s enough to point us.”
“Maybe they won’t even fight with us.” The young boy muttered~IndoMTL.com~ They have seen a lot of guidance from the older generation of coaches, but very few can end up fighting with them.
******
On the third floor of the Xingkong Dou Pavilion, there is a martial arts arena that meets the specifications of international martial arts competitions. The arena is 20 meters long, 20 meters wide, and surrounded by a six-meter-high barbed wire.
When the members of the provincial training team walked into the third floor, they saw Coach Liu and Xu Jingming standing there.
“Get in line.” Xu Jingming said very familiarly. He was also a member of the Jiangnan provincial team at that time, and was selected as the main player of the national team later.
The eleven team members were all armed with long spears, lined up in an orderly manner.
Perhaps Xu Jingming’s strength has been greatly reduced after his retirement, but the past achievements of the opponent still make these players admire and convince them, and they are naturally very obedient.
“Starting today, I will be your coach. The training will last for ten days. Except today’s training time is in the afternoon, tomorrow will be from 9:00 to 11:00 in the morning.” Xu Jingming glanced at them, “I don’t Hope anyone is late and leaves early.”
“Yes.” All eleven team members responded in unison.
“Okay, we meet for the first time. Let me see your strengths first.” Xu Jingming said, “I also like to teach students according to their aptitude.”
“Try your hand in the end?” The players looked at each other, surprised and happy.
“The actual battle in the arena?”
“Xu Jingming has the courage to fight?” These team members couldn’t hide their joy. Since Xu Jingming dared to do this, it means that after retiring, he still maintains most of his strength at his peak.
