Chapter 46: Han Ting’s Nightmare
After this period of continuous training, the joy that had been on Han Ting's face at the beginning was now gone.
Since Su Yu made her constantly swing and draw her sword every day, she could even dream of herself swinging and drawing her sword while sleeping at night.
At this moment, Han Ting woke up from her bed in a start, "Nightmare, nightmare, this is a nightmare."
"I can't, I can't keep going on like this. Tomorrow I must ask Uncle Yu if we can change the training method. Being like this every day makes me a little afraid to go to Su Yu's place now."
Early the next morning, Han Ting arrived at Su Yu's place and saw Su Yu sitting by the lake, leisurely brewing and drinking tea, looking completely relaxed and comfortable.
Han Ting thought about how during this time, Su Yu was either playing chess, drinking wine, or tasting tea, and when he was tired, he would lie on a hammock to sleep. If only she could be like that, but clearly, reality was cruel.
"It's not fair that Uncle Yu is enjoying himself so much, while I have to start swinging my sword as soon as the day breaks."
She couldn't even slack off. Even when she clearly saw Su Yu sleeping, if she wanted to sneak a rest, he would immediately discover it, leaving her unable to relax for even a moment.
She finally understood why Su Yu had said that at the beginning. At first, she hadn't taken it to heart, but now she felt some regret.
Because Han Ting was still young, her childish Heart-Nature hadn't faded away yet, and she still wanted to go out and play everywhere.
After all, the environment she was born into was very good, and with the guidance and support of Su Yu and the other two, she still had a bit of a princess's temperament.
Because Su Yu and the others would basically satisfy whatever she wanted. To be honest, there really wasn't much in the Southern Region that Su Yu couldn't get now.
Growing up in such an environment, it was normal for her to have some of this Heart-Nature; ultimately, it was just that Su Yu and the other two spoiled her too much.
Su Yu watched as Han Ting arrived here.
"Tingting is here. Come, eat this breakfast and continue your practice."
Han Ting walked over with a pained expression on her face.
"Uncle Yu, let's change the training method. This constant sword swinging is going to make me depressed."
At this moment, Su Yu also withdrew his smile and said with a serious face:
"No. I have already said that if you want to practice this Sword Drawing Technique, you must listen to me. I asked you to be prepared, and you agreed to me properly. Now, just focus on your practice."
"Don't even think about it. Alright, don't say anything more. Finish eating quickly and go train."
Seeing that there was no hope, Han Ting gnawed on her breakfast with a disappointed look.
Su Yu knew clearly in his heart that Han Ting had been spoiled by them and had developed some temperamental quirks, so this training was just the right opportunity to let her experience this kind of dry and boring training, to let her feel it.
Su Yu watched Han Ting swinging her sword. After this period of continuous training, the time it took for her to draw and swing her sword was shortening each time.
This was the effect Su Yu wanted to see. As for the subsequent Sword Momentum accumulation, that could wait until she mastered this.
After another period of training, when Han Ting came to train, she no longer had that reluctance, because she had already gotten used to this robot-like life.
Her sword swinging speed was also getting faster and faster. Her movements were smooth and flowing.
On this day, Han Shi and Wang Yuyan came to Su Yu's home. The three of them sat in the courtyard drinking tea; they had come to see Han Ting's training.
Han Shi watched Han Ting, who was constantly swinging her sword by the lake, and did not make a sound to disturb her.
"Brother Su, I didn't expect Tingting to be able to persist in her training so intently, and she hasn't complained to me or Yuyan. When she trained with me, she used to always complain about being tired."
"Brother Han, what are you saying? Tingting also complains of being tired, but I just ignore her. Now that she is used to it, naturally she won't say anything."
"In a little while, I will be able to teach her the next step."
Afterwards, after chatting with the couple Han Shi for a while, they left.
Su Yu watched Han Ting's movements; they were becoming increasingly fluid. Her movements had not the slightest deviation; everything seemed natural and perfect.
This was the result he wanted. It looked like after letting her learn for a few more days, she would be able to proceed to the next step.
On this day, Su Yu also felt that Han Ting was about ready to proceed to the next step.
Therefore, while Han Ting was still swinging her sword continuously, he called out:
"Tingting, come over here."
Hearing this, Han Ting immediately stopped the movements in her hands and came before Su Yu.
"Uncle Yu, is it time to proceed to the next step?"
"That's right. You don't have to keep swinging your sword every single day anymore."
Upon hearing this, Han Ting jumped up with joy. "That's great, that's great! I finally don't have to repeat the same action every single day!"
"Alright, what I am going to teach you next is Accumulating Momentum. This Accumulating Momentum is about accumulating your Sword Momentum. The higher your understanding of cultivation and the Dao of the sword, the greater this momentum will be. Mobilize all the spiritual energy in your body along with this Sword Momentum, and concentrate it into this one move, and you will be able to unleash a startling strike."
"Alright, I will demonstrate it for you once."
Suddenly, Su Yu assumed a stance. In an instant, Han Ting could feel the pressure Su Yu exerted rising rapidly. An invisible aura of flames constantly spread around Su Yu's body. At this moment, Su Yu was like a peerless divine weapon, merging with the sword.
Afterwards, Su Yu stopped.
"This is Accumulating Momentum." Of course, Su Yu had displayed a simplified version of the Sword Drawing Technique that matched his strength.
If he were to demonstrate it at full power, the Old Ancestor of the Profound Heaven Sect might have run out.
Su Yu just simply circulated it to let Han Ting get a feel for it.
Having felt it this once, Han Ting was able to understand this Sword Momentum accumulation more intuitively.
Han Ting also had some ideas now, so she ran to the side to study it.
Just like this, after a period of training, Han Ting was already able to execute the Sword Drawing Technique, reaching the entry-level Realm.
At this moment, Han Ting happily ran to Su Yu's side.
"Uncle Yu, I have finally learned this Sword Drawing Technique!"
"Good, good, good. Since you have learned it, Tingting, let's proceed to the final step: actual combat to see how effective it is."
Afterwards, Su Yu took Han Ting to a place where some Disciples usually conducted trials; there were quite a few Yao Beasts in this forest.
Su Yu scouted around and found a Yao Beast with strength similar to Han Ting's.
"You're the one." Su Yu brought Han Ting before this Yao Beast.
"Alright, this is your final training session. Now you must use the Sword Drawing Technique to defeat this Yao Beast."
At this moment, Su Yu also stepped back to the side.
Han Ting looked at the Yao Beast before her. "I shall demonstrate the Sword Drawing Technique I learned from Uncle Yu on you."
Han Ting instantly rushed up and began to battle the Yao Beast. She had to find a way to trap the Yao Beast for a moment because her Sword Drawing Technique had just reached the entry level and required some wind-up time, but the Yao Beast would not give her that wind-up time.
After Han Ting continuously engaged in battle and looked for an opportunity, before she could find this opportunity, the Yao Beast gave her the chance to execute the Sword Drawing Technique.
Seeing that the Yao Beast stood in place, preparing to accumulate power to spit out a sound wave from its mouth.
Han Ting had also assumed her stance. Suddenly, a wave of Sword Momentum erupted from Han Ting's body. At this moment, cracks had already appeared beneath where Han Ting stood, and an aura of flames was constantly surging around her body.
Su Yu saw this and felt quite gratified. Although she could not cause phenomena between heaven and earth, it was enough for the present.
At this moment, Han Ting was ready, and the Yao Beast had also finished.
Su Yu's eyes sank.
"Here it comes."
Suddenly, the Sword Momentum on Han Ting's body reached its peak. A flash of light streaked past, and the Yao Beast's sound wave was instantly scattered. By the time the Yao Beast came to its senses, it had already been split into two halves.
Han Ting immediately asked Su Yu happily:
"How was it? Was I cool?"
But just at this moment, Ye Lin brought a person to the Profound Heaven Sect.
