Chapter 8

" Hmm? "

Zheng Yang was taken aback, his face turning bright red, looking terrible.

"I had a crush on a girl, and then... I was humiliated in front of everyone, but this has nothing to do with the teacher, right!"

He once had a crush on a girl and excitedly went to confess, only to be mercilessly mocked and hurt, leaving him humiliated. This was a secret to him, even Mo Xiao didn't know about it, so how did this teacher know?

"Is it true? Zheng Yang, why didn't you tell me you were humiliated? Who did it?" Mo Xiao was stunned by his admission and quickly asked.

"We'll talk about this later!" Zheng Yang shook his head, clearly not wanting to discuss it here. He looked up at the teacher in front of him: "Teacher, this is my personal matter. I don't know how you found out, but it has nothing to do with guiding my spear technique!"

"Nothing to do with it?" Zhang Xuan shook his head: "It has a lot to do with it!"

"It has something to do with it?" Zheng Yang was full of confusion.

He just had a breakup, what does that have to do with getting guidance?

"Your spear technique is fierce and decisive, representing your personality. You do everything with courage, never thinking about the consequences! This is usually a good thing; a martial artist should be like this, not hesitating!" Zhang Xuan's expression was calm: "However, unfortunately, after this emotional experience, you have become fearful, afraid of rejection, failure, and humiliation! Your spear technique has become more hesitant and doubtful, greatly reducing its power!"

"You... You... saw all this from my spear technique? Saw that I had a breakup? Saw my personality?"

Zheng Yang was shocked.

It wasn't that the other person was wrong, but that they were spot on, almost without any error.

He was brave and decisive, never afraid of anything before, but because of that emotional experience, he now hesitates and is uncertain in everything he does.

To see all this just from his spear technique, even the breakup, what kind of insight is this?

How could the academy have such a powerful teacher?

He felt like he was about to go crazy.

Previously, when he went to Master Wang Chao, who was known as the best spear technique professor, and demonstrated his skills, Wang Chao only said that his technique was off, but couldn't explain why. This person, however, saw his breakup and the emotional setback that caused his technique to stagnate with just one look. Could this teacher's insight... be even stronger than Wang Chao's?

"There's nothing strange about it!" Zhang Xuan waved his hand, looking like a wise man: "Spear technique represents the state of mind. If the state of mind is unclear, the martial skills you use will naturally be dark! Your spear technique, though continuous, seems entangled by something, unable to be cut or untangled. Just one look, and I knew it must be emotional entanglement!"

"This..."

Not only was Zheng Yang stunned, but Mo Xiao, standing to the side, also opened his mouth wide, almost big enough to fit an egg.

Damn, is this real?

To see emotional entanglement and indecision from a spear technique... is this human eyesight?

Mo Xiao and Zheng Yang looked at each other, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

"Teacher, can you help me see it too?"

After the shock, Mo Xiao suddenly stepped forward, full of longing, not caring whether Zhang Xuan agreed or not, and swung his spear.

His technique, using a spear, was clearly more fluid and powerful than Zheng Yang's.

Just from the spear technique, he was indeed superior, no wonder Master Wang Chao chose him and not Zheng Yang.

Whoosh!

A gust of wind, Mo Xiao retracted his spear and stood still.

When he used the spear, it was like a world-conquering demon, powerful and invincible. When he retracted it, he was as calm as a statue.

Every move, every step, had its own grace.

Although his strength wasn't too strong, still at the first level of martial arts, his spear technique was already quite formidable.

"You have a bad stomach, and if I'm not mistaken, you're still having diarrhea today!"

Zhang Xuan looked at him calmly.

"Ah?" Mo Xiao shivered: "Teacher, you saw from my spear technique that I have diarrhea?"

Just as the other person said, his stomach was indeed bad, and he had been having diarrhea since yesterday, which was worse today, even causing him to feel weak.

However, this didn't affect him much. With the spear in hand, he performed at his best, even earning praise from Master Wang Chao. But this person, with just one word, pointed out the key issue...

Is this real?

To see a breakup and diarrhea from a spear technique, what kind of insight is this?

"Will you let me guide you? If so, become my disciple!"

Ignoring their shock, Zhang Xuan looked at them calmly.

Saying their conditions in one breath, making them almost go crazy, but to him, it was nothing.

In fact, it was exactly like that. When they practiced martial arts, their books automatically appeared in the library, and their current flaws, including the breakup and diarrhea, were recorded. Zhang Xuan just needed to glance and read them out, which was not difficult at all.

"Disciple Zheng Yang is willing to become your disciple, Teacher!"

Without any hesitation, Zheng Yang knelt down.

He was completely convinced by Zhang Xuan.

A teacher with such insight, how could their guidance be simple?

"Good!" Seeing that he immediately knelt after just pointing out one flaw, Zhang Xuan nodded in satisfaction, took out a jade token representing his identity, and threw it over: "Verify your identity!"

"Yes!" Zheng Yang didn't hesitate and immediately recognized the token with his blood.

Soon, the procedures were completed.

"Since you are now my student, I'll give you some advice. To gain respect in a relationship, you first need to have enough strength. Without strength, how can the other person respect you? So, what you need to do now is not to be sad or depressed, but to open your mind, work hard, and let the other person know how foolish it was to reject you! You need to prove it with your strength..." At this point, Zhang Xuan suddenly remembered a very arrogant book from his previous life and smiled: "Thirty years on the east side, thirty years on the west side, don't underestimate a poor young man!"

"Don't underestimate a poor young man?"

Hearing this, Zheng Yang felt his chest burning, his face turning bright red, and his body trembling involuntarily.

As a pure inhabitant of another world, he had never heard such words!

Instantly, his fighting spirit was ignited.

The spirit that was previously depressed due to the breakup became as brilliant as a diamond.

"Try your spear technique again!"

Seeing that he had let go of his emotional burden, Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

"Okay!"

Zheng Yang didn't waste any words, holding the spear, his demeanor changed completely from before.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The spear tip swept across, the aura surged, and the powerful force spread through the spear, shaking the entire room.

Bang!

After practicing his spear technique, he struck the spear straight at a stone pillar.

A loud boom, and a row of numbers appeared.

235!

It was actually 235 kilograms!

Just now, he used all his strength and only reached 110, but with just one word of guidance, his strength increased by more than double!

"Thank you, Teacher!"

Seeing this number, Zheng Yang had no more doubts and knelt down. At this moment, he was completely convinced of the teacher above him, with no more doubts.

"Amazing!"

Staring at the numbers on the stone pillar, Mo Xiao's face also turned red, and his body trembled.

He was happy that his good friend had found a good teacher, but he also felt a bit disappointed.

Previously, Wang Chao had guided him, only increasing his strength by about 30%!

But this teacher increased it by more than 100%!

If he had known this unknown teacher was so powerful, he wouldn't have spent so much effort looking for Wang Chao and would have directly come to him as a teacher!

Thinking of this, he felt a bit regretful.

However, he was also a bit puzzled. How could such a powerful spear technique teacher have no fame?

He couldn't help but look up: "Teacher, you've already taken Zheng Yang as a student, but I don't know your name..."

Hearing his question, Zheng Yang also looked over.

He was already completely convinced of this teacher but didn't even know his name!

"My name is Zhang Xuan!" Zhang Xuan said calmly.

"Zhang Xuan? This name sounds familiar..."

Hearing the name, Mo Xiao was stunned, then remembered something, his pupils contracting, and his lips trembling involuntarily: "I seem to remember... a teacher who scored zero in the teacher evaluation, also named Zhang Xuan, who seems to have the same name as you, Teacher!"

"Yes, I am that useless person!"

Zhang Xuan nodded.

"Ah..."

Zheng Yang and Mo Xiao were petrified on the spot.
