Chapter 194: A Shameful past.
Two weeks have passed since Feng Hao started training in the spear. He divided his days into two parts. One to dual cultivate with Xue Jiao and Nian Zhen for 4 hours and the other 20 hours will be spent fighting against Xia Looking.
Xia Louqing who was training Feng Hao was greatly surprised by Feng Hao's talent in the ways of the spear. He learned quickly and his mistakes got lesser and lesser with each day.
"A Man born to wield the spear" That what Xia Louqing thought about after watching Feng Hao for just one month.
Feng Hao's talent in spear left Xia Louqing ecstatic! He always wanted to fight a person who has the same talent as him in Spears. Now, He found that person. It was Feng Hao.
But, Feng Hao wasn't happy. Xia Louqing beat the shit out of him in each battle. This made Feng Hao see his flaws. He didn't know any fighting style! Feng Hao only used his fists in his previous fights and nothing else. Even though he has the Heavenly Dragon Fist and steps. He doesn't have anything else. This is a fatal flaw that could cost him his life.
That way Feng Hao becomes even more determined to learn the way of the spear.
"Blood clot, I will train alone for a few days before fighting again" said Feng Hao.
Xia Louqing stopped attacking and looked at Feng Hao for a few seconds before nodding his head. He sat down to cultivate his body and ignored Feng Hao.
Feng Hao took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He grabbed the Spear tightly as he started to perform a set of moves. This set was given to him by his father many years ago.
Feng Hao's mind turned calm as he imagined himself back in the Feng Clan's training ground. Him standing in the middle of the training ground.
His father and mother were setting on a table and drinking tea while their eyes followed Feng Hao who was training.
They smiled at Feng Hao and he could hear them saying " Train more and don't slack down".
Feng Hao smiled and continued to perform the Set. His movement became more fluid and precise causing Xia Louqing to stop cultivating and watch him.
The Spear in Feng Hao's hands started to dance elegantly as the Spearhead shone with multiple lights.
Xia Louqing closed his eyes for a few seconds and said " Beautiful spear art! Even though it has many mistakes, it still beautiful and elegant.". The mistakes that Xia Louqing spoke off were slowly corrected by Feng Hao as his training with Xia Louqing has started to show some results.
Of course, Feng Hao was still a beginner and he couldn't correct all the mistakes right away. He corrected all the mistakes in the stabbing parts.
Feng Hao continued to train in the Feng Clan's spear technique in order to clam his heart and mind. He persisted for two days before opening his eyes that showed exhaustion.
"Feng Hao, What is the name of the set you performed?" Asked Xia Louqing.
"It's my clan spear technique, The Flying Spear Technique," said Feng Hao.
"Can you tell me who created this technique?" Asked Xia Louqing.
Feng Hao looked at him weirdly and said " Why do you want to know?".
"I feel that this technique has a special charm that i couldn't explain!" said Xia Louqing.
"I want to know who created this technique and how he created it".
Feng Hao felt that there is something fishy about all of this, but sensing the sincere tone of Xia Louqing, he agreed and started telling him the story of the Flying Spear Technique.
"This Technique was created by the Feng Clan's founder. He was a renowned figure in the path of the spear. He fought many battles and win all of them by using his Spear, The Flying Spear".
" The founder was still unsatisfied by his achievement and wanted to create a technique that could shake the heavens and earth".
"So, the founder became a hermit and spent all of his life creating the perfect technique. But, he never succeeded in doing so".
" The founder was sad and fell into despair after his continues failers! To cope with his sadness, The founder just sat down and put his spear on his lap".
"He stayed like this for the remaining part of his life and just before dying, he somehow entered into an enlightened state and created this technique," said Feng Hao.
Xia Louqing closed his eyes and didn't speak for a few minutes.
"The Feng Clan's founder must have achieved the state of being one with the spear" said Xia Louqing as he opened his eyes.
"Feng Hao, It seems we have been wrong about this technique!"
"I have noticed that the Flying Spear Techniuqe might not a fighting technique. I think that its. actually a Spear Dance that was created by the Feng Clan's founder understanding and love for spears" said Xia Louqing.
"If you look at it as a fighting technique, then you will see it as a flawed and imperfect technique. But, if you looked at it like a Spear Dance, then it will be a beautiful, elegant and charming Spear Dance" said Xia Louqing.
"I have seen many Spear Dances and i could say with confidence that this is the most beautiful one i have seen in my life" said Xia Louqing.
Feng Hao was stunned as he heard Xia Louqing.
He remembered what his father told him about this story.
"The Clan Founder wrote the technique with his last remaining strength and said " This will be the best Spear..." But he died before finishing his sentence.
Feng Hao became speechless as he thought about this and what Xia Louqing told him.
"If what Xia Louqing is true, then my clan has interpreted the Clan Founder's last sentence wrongly and thought of it as the Best Spear Techniuqe while its actually its the best Spear Dance".
Feng Hao smiled bitterly and said "My Clan has been actually dancing for many years in front of our enemies. It no wonder that our clan declined years after the founder death".
