章 197: Chapter 197: Skill Improvement

While practicing dagger fighting technique at the Black Panther Gym in the real world, his coach once told Song Jian, regardless of the fighting style or the presence of weapons, from the moment of first contact, he must receive standard instruction and not blindly practice on his own.

Once bad habits are formed, they are incredibly hard to correct. Adhering to wrong practices not only nullifies improvement but can also harm the body over time;

Just like Song Jian's situation – the sword move he had summarized from half a day of fighting was filled with errors. He knew this in his heart, but sword practice was not his true aim; he merely wanted to catch Duan Jian's attention since they were both in the same building.

After over an hour of the practice, Song Jian found his entire right arm numbing, with unbearable itching, swelling, and pain at the shoulder joint. He was drenched in sweat and about to give up when he finally heard Duan Jian's voice.
