Chapter 100 - 40, Combat General Method _3
Lin Yue hugged one arm with the other and watched Baili Fengzhi without blinking.
Baili Fengzhi felt slightly uncomfortable under his gaze, and if not for the sake of demonstrating better, she would not have worn such a tight outfit, making her look like one of those brothel women, seemingly trying to seduce His Highness.
However, after all, he was His Highness, so she could only pretend nothing was amiss and said, "I will go through it again at a slow speed, to help Your Highness remember it better."
"No need."
Lin Yue said, "Turn around, with your back to me, and practice it again at this speed."
Baili Fengzhi was taken aback for a moment, feeling that something was off.
She had originally thought that His Highness did not seem like a lecherous man, but yesterday he had suddenly said he wanted to marry that little fishy girl who still looked like a child, and now he wanted to watch her from behind...
She knew she had a good figure, so she usually deliberately covered it with a cape, but today it was fully exposed, and His Highness might have become addicted to looking at it...
Baili Fengzhi regretted that she had only worn the lining of the war robe, but she had no choice but to steel herself and agree, "Okay."
Immediately, she took a deep breath, turned around, her back to Lin Yue, and began to practice the fighting skill anew.
But with her spiritual sense, she could clearly feel Lin Yue’s gaze scrutinizing her body everywhere, making her feel more and more uneasy, especially during certain movements that highlighted her curves.
"Be more precise; why are your movements not as large as the first time?"
Lin Yue’s slightly dissatisfied voice came from behind her, almost as if he was watching a dance and realized the movements were not seductive enough and he wanted more satisfaction.
But what could she do? She could only try to be as precise as possible.
After completing the practice again, Baili Fengzhi was ready to find an excuse to put on the overcoat of the war robe to cover her figure and prevent His Highness from being distracted.
"Your Highness, if I practice again, I’ll slow down..."
She hadn’t finished speaking when she heard Lin Yue interrupt, "There’s no need to practice anymore, I’ve seen it both from the front and the back, and I’ve completely memorized it."
Baili Fengzhi was taken aback.
She remembered that practicing the Five Elements Essence in the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier wouldn’t enhance someone’s memory, right?
Lin Yue tapped his head and casually explained, "I’ve always had a good memory, and since the Water Element is stored in the head, it is beneficial for memory. Although I can’t claim photographic memory, it’s not far off."
He then recapitulated and said, "I will practice it now, and you can see how many mistakes I make and help me correct them."
Immediately, Lin Yue began to practice the ’Soldier Beating Skill’ as he had memorized it, slowly copying the movements one by one.
Taking several times longer, he finally completed each movement of the practice.
Nonetheless, through this practice, he distinctly felt the uniqueness of this fighting skill, as this series of strange movements engaged more muscles and tendons and even tapped into deeper layers of power in his body.
Even at a snail’s pace, the practice clearly consumed more physical energy.
However, this energy expenditure was easily replenished by absorbing a bit of the Essence from the heavens and earth.
"How about it?" Lin Yue asked.
"Your Highness indeed has an extremely high comprehension ability, just lacking a bit in body control, but there were only eleven mistakes," Baili Fengzhi immediately pointed out the movements Lin Yue had not executed properly while demonstrating them herself.
Lin Yue understood as well.
Even though his mind had memorized it, his body clearly was telling him he was full of it.
This was akin to having a natural talent for dance; a good memory was only one aspect.
His memory and comprehension were both good, having understood the essentials after watching it twice, but his body control was not refined enough, which meant he would have to practice more.
However, just as Lin Yue was about to get familiar with the practice, Baili Fengzhi suddenly spoke up to stop him.
"With such high comprehension, Your Highness need not practice this ’Soldier Beating Skill’."
Baili Fengzhi said, "This low-rank fighting skill is too superficial; practicing it to perfection will at most double your power. Your Highness should directly learn the highest level of Military Martial Arts, ’The General Fighting Skill’, which, if perfected, can refine energy like silk, in perfect unity."
"Skip so many steps?"
Lin Yue asked in surprise, "Isn’t it better to progress step by step and build a good foundation?"
