Chapter 24 - Fighting Technique (I)

On the third floor of the school building, in addition to the fighting classroom, there were several other large classrooms which could hold hundreds of people. Aside from those, there were also many small classrooms designed to resemble a gymnasium for students to practise freely. However, those small classrooms needed to be booked in advance through the school’s management before they could be used.

Klaire booked a classroom in advance, and after dinner he called Xi Wei to the third floor. From time to time, the voices of the students fighting during practice were heard in the corridor. Obviously, everyone was very enthusiastic about the fighting class. Especially for senior students, in order to prepare for university exam, they must work hard in the fighting class.

Fortunately, the school building was huge and there were a lot of small classrooms on the third floor. Klaire and Xi Wei walked to the end of the corridor and entered their booked classroom together. Klaire unlocked the door and smiled, “Come on, let’s go.”

They took out a pair of loose clothes specially designed for fighting class from their bags. Xi Wei looked back at Klaire and said, “I’ll first teach you from the most basic action.”

The child in front of him had a very serious expression, his fist was clenched tightly, and his stance was without flaw. While demonstrating, he patiently explained, “When punching, don’t rely too much on the strength in your arm, but also rely on your waist, shoulder, and thighs. All parts of your body should be coordinated in the movement in order to produce the strongest force.”

“First thing to do is to make the correct punching posture, then let out the force in an instant. In other words, there must be explosive power in the punch.”

As he said this, Xi Wei used his clenched right fist to land a decisive punch on the sandbag in front of him. A loud “bang” sounded, and the sandbag he punched flew away!

Klaire: “…”

This guy’s explosive force really is very amazing. He had been holding back during the fighting class in the day, but he did not need to disguise himself in front of Klaire, so he swung his fist with all of his strength. It was simply amazing!

“My master once told me that the key to punching is being fast, accurate, ruthless, and steady. You start from the ‘fast ‘. Follow the move I just did and punch the sandbag in front of me for 10 times as fast as you can. However, each one of them should be done with the correct posture.” After Xi Wei finished talking, he turned back to look at Klaire seriously.

When he learned martial arts, he did it very seriously. Now, when teaching Klaire, Xi Wei of course taught him very seriously as well.

In front of little Xi Wei’s serious eyes, Klaire smiled slightly and nodded, “OK, teacher.”

Xi Wei said in surprise, “Did you just call me teacher?”

Klaire smiled, “Of course, it is extravagant enough to ask someone of your karate black-belt level to teach me personally, and you don’t even charge me for tuition.”

Xi Wei smiled and patted him on the shoulder, “Hurry up and practice.”

“Yes.” Klaire corrected his stance and began punching according to the posture Xi Wei had just taught.

Martial arts was not something that could be done well only after two or three times. Their current goal was to make Klaire punch 10 consecutive times, this was not difficult to achieve. After Klaire had finished 10 times, Xi Wei walked behind him and lifted his arm to guide him personally, “Place your wrist as straight as possible, and position your fist in line with your arm. Yes, that’s it.”
