Kapitel 128: Nine Yangs and One Yin

In the first half of the day, Zhou Xiong passed on some basic Taichi knowledge to Wang Yao. During the process, Wang Yao's learning ability surprised him. Wang Yao was amazingly talented. Within the morning, Wang Yao was able to remember the Taichi defensive and attacking postures, and most importantly he demonstrated an understanding of Taichi's profound meaning. Taichi was known to be easy to learn but difficult to master and had a focus on substance over form.

"You have an amazing talent!" Zhou Xiong praised. "If you were to learn martial arts, you could become a master!"

Close to noon, Zhou Xiong and his son departed. Wang Yao insisted that they stay for a meal, but they refused.

In the afternoon, Wang Yao practiced Taichi on the hill.

It may have been that the meaning behind Taichi was similar to the scriptures he had been reciting, his practicing was easier, and his progress was swift. He was elated by this.
