My Talent Can Constantly Evolve Chapter 18

Chapter 18: Project Dawn

“What? You also practiced the subsequent moves?”

He Bing's expression froze, and then he urged, “Show them to me once.”

He felt that it was impossible for Lu Heng to have learnt the entire saber technique moveset so quickly. The subsequent moves were probably just simple imitations rather than actual moves.

Seeing that He Bing had agreed, Lu Heng immediately started to move.

The second move was a horizontal saber slash, and the third move was a raised saber blow.

Chop, cut, slash, parry, stab, deflect, block…

The entire moveset was showcased smoothly and fluidly, almost as if Lu Heng was a veteran who had been practicing the saber technique for years.

After Lu Heng finished, He Bing's expression was very complicated.

Envy, doubt, unwillingness, and many other emotions were all mixed up together, so he did not know how to express them on his face.

After Lu Heng put the saber back into its sheath, he asked in a daze, “Have you really only been practicing for a day?”

“Yes, I really just started yesterday,” Lu Heng replied.

“Your one day of practice is equivalent to one month of mine.” He Bing said weakly.

However, he was still very suspicious. Perhaps Lu Heng had practiced this saber technique before, or perhaps he had watched many experts practice it while he had been studying in high school.

After all, there were many talented monsters in the martial arts class in high school.

He Bing even felt that perhaps the rumors were right after all, and that the relationship between Lu Heng and Grandmaster Liu's daughter was indeed not simple, which allowed Lu Heng to have the chance to meet a real top-notch expert.

“Lu Heng, you're not hiding anything from me, are you?” He Bing could not help but ask.

“No.” Lu Heng pretended to be confused.

To be honest, He Bing felt a little guilty asking this. After all, he did have some secrets of his own.

Seeing that Lu Heng had immediately denied it, He Bing stared straight at him, trying to look for clues from his facial expression.

After staring at him for a while, He Bing withdrew his gaze and decided not to dwell on this matter anymore.

After all, there really was no point in harping on the matter. Regardless of whether Lu Heng was related to Grandmaster Liu's daughter or not, it had nothing to do with him personally.

“Lu Heng, I have nothing more to teach you with regards to this saber technique. After all, I haven't practiced it for long either. If you want to improve, you'll have to seek out the instructor.”

He Bing returned to the main topic.

However, as soon as he said that, his eyes suddenly lit up. He walked over to Lu Heng's side and whispered, “Lu Heng, I have something to discuss with you.”

“Please go ahead, Senior Brother He,” Lu Heng replied curiously.

Judging from He Bing's expression, it seemed to be a very important matter.

“Lu Heng, I'll take you to see the instructor now and inform him about your progress. I'm sure that he'll be very happy,” He Bing said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Lu Heng was puzzled.

What was Senior Brother He planning to do? Why was he in such a hurry to take him to see the instructor?

Could it be that he was in a hurry to take credit for his achievement?

That did not make sense. He Bing's family background was decent, so there was no need for him to go to Instructor Wu to seek out this kind of recognition. What was he trying to achieve?

“Senior Brother He, I think I'd better practice for another two or three days. After all, I'm not completely familiar with the technique yet,” Lu Heng replied.

While he had memorized the entire saber technique moveset, it was only to the level of being able to use it in combat more or less. It was still far from being fully mastered.

Lu Heng was very clear about his own abilities. He knew very well that he still made a lot of small mistakes when he practiced, and that he needed time and repetition to correct them.

“It's good enough. You're already better than most people despite only having practiced for such a short period of time. The instructor will be very satisfied,” He Bing tried to persuade him.

However, the more he heard, the more unusual Lu Heng felt this situation to be.

He felt that there was something else going on here.

“Senior Brother He, can you tell me why you're in such a hurry to take me to see the instructor?” Lu Heng asked.

Noticing his serious expression, He Ning immediately swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and hesitated.

After thinking for a while, He Bing said in a low voice, “Lu Heng, actually, I've been practicing the Qi Induces Internal Strength technique for a year now. I've been trying to get the instructor to teach me the second stage of cultivation.”

“But every time I mention it, he has refused. He keeps saying that I need to practice more.”

“You know, I've asked a lot of people about it. The second stage of the cultivation technique is not that scary. I guess he's always refused me because he was afraid that something would go wrong.”

“So I was thinking of informing him about your progress and making him happy. Maybe when he's happy, he'll agree to my request.”

After hearing this explanation, Lu Heng finally understood the reason behind He Bing's enthusiasm.

It turned out that He Bing was in a hurry to start learning the second stage of the Qi Induces Internal Strength technique.

“Senior Brother He, I think it's better to listen to the instructor when it comes to this matter. After all, you have to be very careful when practicing internal strength cultivation,” Lu Heng advised.

“It's not that scary.” He Bing shook his head repeatedly. “You still have to take risks when the right opportunity arises. Otherwise, how can you grow?”

“You should be brave too. After you've trained for a full year, find someone to guide you and quickly enter the second stage of cultivation training. Otherwise, the distance between you and other people will grow further and further.”

He Bing patted Lu Heng's shoulder earnestly.

After that, he immediately lowered his voice and asked, “So what do you think? Will you come with me to see the instructor now?”

“Okay, let's go.” Lu Heng agreed.

The other party had already said so much, so how could he not agree?

Seeing that Lu Heng had agreed, He Bing's lips curled into a smile. He put his hand on Lu Heng's shoulder and strode out.

After walking out of the training hall, Lu Heng asked, “Senior Brother He, why are you in such a hurry to cultivate your internal strength? You don't have to worry about encountering monsters since you work in a pharmaceutical factory, right?”

He still did not quite understand why He Bing was in such a hurry to improve.

One had to know that the cultivation of the second stage of the Qi Induces Internal Strength technique was risky. If something went wrong, the problem could end up being quite significant.

Lu Heng had no choice but to bite the bullet and try his luck. However, He Bing was a person who should be living a carefree life. Why was he in such a hurry?

“Because I want to become a martial artist,” He Bing replied.

After saying that, he did not wait for Lu Heng to reply, and continued, “Given my current progress, there is naturally no hope of that ever happening. However, earlier this year, the scientific research project codenamed 'Dawn' had a new breakthrough and achieved a series of remarkable results.”

“Some of these results are related to the pharmaceutical industry.”

At this point, He Bing paused for a moment before saying, “You should already know that when a plant grows, it will absorb the qi in the air and use it to solidify its roots, stems, and leaves.”

“And now, scientists have found a way to purify the qi in plants.”

“The drugs created from the purified qi can be easily absorbed by the human body. Even people with average physiques can absorb most of the qi contained in these drugs.”

“In other words, a person with an average physique can become a martial artist with the help of this drug.”

“Of course, if you really want to become a martial artist, you still have to work hard at training. You can't become a martial artist just by taking drugs.”

“So I have to make good use of the time I have now to build my foundation. When I have the opportunity to take this drug, I'll have a better chance of becoming a martial artist.”

After listening to He Bing's explanation, Lu Heng nodded slowly. He was reminded of the energy drugs that Instructor Wu had mentioned.

He asked, “Senior Brother He, is the medicine you mentioned called Energy Potion?”

“The name hasn't been decided yet. We just shouted that name out first,” He Bing explained, before asking in return, “Where did you hear that name from?”

“Instructor Wu mentioned it,” Lu Heng replied.

Hearing that, He Bing smiled and said, “I was the one who told him about that name.”

“At that time, I told him everything in detail so that I could convince him to allow me to start the second stage of the internal strength cultivation technique.”

“You already know the result though. He still didn't agree.”

“Sigh, I hope it works out this time.”

After saying that, He Ning patted Lu Heng's shoulder again. “It's all up to you now.”

By this time, the two had already arrived outside Instructor Wu's office. He Bing immediately went forward and knocked on the door.
