Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Chapter 39

Episode 39

Difference in rank (5)

After Yeon Ho-jeong returned to the family, the atmosphere in the Yeon family changed.

To put it in a good way, it became hot, and in a bad way, it became bloody. The reason was entirely because of Yeonhojeong.

The day after returning home, Yeon Ho-jeong appeared at Yeon-ga’s grand banquet hall.

The main training hall was an outdoor training hall that anyone could use. The area was so large that it was used for troop review ceremonies and family celebrations.

Yeon Ho-jeong recklessly ran around the border of the wide arena.

It runs endlessly over an area with a circumference of over 200 pieces. The morning training was like that.

After warming up by jumping and eating a large lunch, he repeated sprinting and slow running for his afternoon training.

The warriors in Yeonga were puzzled.

The Grand Duke’s training was literally physical training. It goes without saying that physical strength is important, but each trained martial artist has his or her own training method.

The Archduke’s martial arts skills are lacking. The warriors passed it on like that.

next day.

Yeon Ho-jeong woke up at dawn and ran. But it was different from the day before.

He was wearing a 30 pound weight vest with chains attached.

The warriors were surprised. That observation was a training item used by members of Yeonga’s unit during hellish training.

Yeonhojeong, wearing those heavy chains, collapsed before noon.

If it’s natural, it’s natural. Since I repeatedly sprinted at full speed without using any internal energy, no matter how disciplined I was, I couldn’t stand it.

The warriors clicked their tongues and carried Yeonhojeong to their lodgings.

next day.

Yeon Ho-jeong appeared again at the main performance hall. He must have eaten a lot and rested well, but he still looked human.

However, Yeon Ho-jeong collapsed that day as well. Still, Lee Gak seemed to run more than yesterday.

Five days passed like that.

Yeon Ho-jeong coughed up blood and collapsed. No matter how well-nourished and well-rested you are, training that pushes you beyond your limits will cause bone problems.

The warriors clicked their tongues but could not help but be amazed at Yeonhojeong’s venom. Regardless of effort, running like that to the point of losing one’s mind was impossible with any level of venom.

Ten days later.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who had reorganized his body, came out to the main performance hall again. But Yeonhojeong that day was completely different from before he collapsed.

It became faster and more cheerful. Even with heavy chains wrapped around both arms, his movements improved significantly.

That day, Yeon Ho-jeong was able to complete one day of training for the first time. The warriors training at Daeyeonmujang also applauded Yeonhojeong’s success.

However, Yeonhojeong’s training began from then on. He trained beyond his limits every day and made sure to train at a harder intensity than yesterday.

The warriors who admired Yeonhojeong’s vigor but secretly laughed at his simple training began to look at Yeonhojeong with awe as time passed.

The training went from one month to two months to well over four months.

It’s the new year and the cold of winter is about to hit its stride.

Yeon Ho-jeong no longer wore the sword and chains.

“going.”

“okay.”

Boom!

Yang Heum approached with a light movement and swung his wooden sword.

It was a sharper sword strike than before. It was a straight and honest blow aimed at stopping, but it was so fast that even a decent expert would have difficulty receiving it.

Sreuk.

That swift sword split the air.

All Yeon Ho-jeong did was turn his body and move one step. With that simple movement, he was able to avoid a sword strike and at the same time seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s fist dug into Yang Heum’s side.

It wasn’t fast, but it was very timely. Yang Xin immediately broke his stance and kicked the fist away.

As much as I deliberately broke my posture, my balance did not collapse. Yang Heum flicked his fist and immediately struck away the three hallucinations.

The quick, single-hit kick targeted Yeon Ho-jeong’s upper body bleeding.

At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong’s elbow hit the sole of Yang Heum’s foot.

puck!

“100 million?!”

Yang Heum’s body rolled on the ground.

When the Yongcheonhyeol (???) on the sole of my foot was hit, my entire right leg seemed to be paralyzed. Embarrassed, Yang Heum quickly took his stance.

One movement was very good. Flexibility and elasticity were outstanding even at Chang-eung University.

But Yeon Ho-jeong’s palm was already touching Yang Heum’s chest.

‘…!’

Yang Xin’s face turned pale.

Yeon Ho-jeong stepped onto the training ground strongly.

Bullfight!

“Oops!”

Yang Heum’s body flew away and fell to the ground.

Phew.

A faint haze rose from the chest stretched out in a low posture. Like Yeonga Thirteen Volumes, it was Yeonhwanbiyeonjang (?????), which can be said to be the basic technique of Yeonga.

Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.

“You lost, right?”

“Cough! “I lost!”

Yang Heum continued to cough. Little by little blood came out as I coughed.

Yeon Ho-jeong said with an embarrassed face.

“I’m sorry. “My strength control is still immature.”

“Oh no! “It was my fault for what happened.”

That wasn’t the important thing. Yang Heum asked in a distrustful voice.

“But is that really an extension of the annual repayment fee?”

“ok.”

“omg?!”

Yang Heum, as well as all 20 Chang Eung-jo people who were watching, were surprised.

“Was Biyeonji originally such a powerful martial art?”

Although it was the same basic attack, Yeonhwanbi Extension was a more practical martial art than Yeonga Thirteen.

But that was it. A basic ball is just a basic ball and does not produce any power beyond a certain level. Moreover, as its name suggests, Yeonhwanbiyeonjang was a martial art that focused on neutralizing the enemy with quick and light dexterity rather than a single strike.

But such a heavy and solemn blow? I couldn’t even imagine.

Yeon Ho-jeong clicked his tongue.

“Look at my feet.”

He raised his foot.

“omg!”

Group Chang-eung was surprised. The ground where Yeon Ho-jeong stepped on was dented by two inches.

The solid ground is hollow in the shape of footprints. It was an incredible power.

“Jingak (??) is not something you step on to scare others. “It is to increase the resilience and energy of the earth to make the transfer and output power stronger.”

“…!”

“No matter what the characteristics of your martial arts are, if your Jinkak is strong, you can subdue the enemy with one strike.”

This is the reason why Shaolin’s martial arts are so strong. It is known that Shaolin’s Jinggak itself can subdue ten thousand demons. This meant that the usability of the Jinak was excellent.

And it was the same for Yeonhojeong. His martial arts had the characteristic of subduing Manbyeon (??) with heavy and solemn blows rather than the fast and agile Yeonhwancho.

“Is it true that the Archduke has been performing at the Great Banquet Hall all this time?”

“Yes, in addition to drastically improving physical strength, it was to maximize the use of the forward angle.”

As the two months passed, there was a strange change in Yeon Ho-jeong’s jumping.

Sometimes there were no traces left, but other times there were heavy footprints on the ground. The depth and distance between steps were arbitrary.

The soldiers thought that Yeon Ho-jeong’s physical strength was unstable, but the reality was different. He was even honing the flow of power through the advance.

“You are amazing. “Is that possible?”

“Of course. You’ve never practiced like this before, right? “It’s hard to believe because you haven’t tried it.”

“Then, can we also practice like you, Grand Duke?”

“It is a foolish question. This training is my own martial arts path. “You have to find a practice that suits you.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“Basics are always important. However, in order to see beyond that, you need to understand your level, inclination, and what you pursue.”

“Does your head hurt?”

“Did you try to become strong without even using your brain like that?”

“Okay.”

“Take this opportunity to listen carefully. The speed of growth varies depending on what a person aspires to be. “If you pursue one, you will grow up to that point, and if you pursue ten, you will work hard to get there.”

“Are you saying we should set a goal?”

“Exactly. “Whether it is a small goal or a grand goal, there is a clear difference between those who know where to reach and those who do not.”

The faces of the response team members became serious.

In fact, this was something anyone could say. However, Yeon Ho-jeong confirmed the truth through his actions for over four months.

The same words are received differently depending on the situation. Chang Eung-jo was mildly shocked by Yeon Ho-jeong’s words.

Yeon Ho-jeong looked at the other side.

There were also several members of the emergency response team there.

“Same goes for you. “I don’t know if you plan to be satisfied with that, but if you want to become stronger than that, it would be better to set a goal first.”

Then one of the emergency responders raised his hand.

Yeon Ho-jeong lifted his chin.

“there.”

“Greetings. “My name is Yoo Ji-ha, a member of the three non-responsive staff.”

He looked younger than expected. Would you say he is of a similar age to Yeon Ho-jeong? Entering the emergency service at that age was quite a feat.

“Can I ask you one thing?”

“whenever.”

“Like Chang-Eung University, Non-Eung University also has its own separate training. “In order to properly perform the unit’s role, everyone must move as one body.”

“however?”

“But the main unit’s training is intensive, except for eating and sleeping time. “It is very difficult to find time for personal training like today.”

“As far as troop training is concerned, I understand that it is entirely up to the governor. “It wouldn’t mean much if you told me, right?”

Yoo Ji-ha blushed.

“Oh yeah! “It’s not because of unit training, but because I wanted to ask if I could do self-improvement during sleep time…”

He meant that he would do personal training even if it meant cutting down on sleep.

“What time do you sleep a day?”

“Yes, I am going to sleep.”

“That’s plenty. “I could sleep a little less.”

“Yeah. That’s why I’m telling you this.”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“Then you can practice with less sleep, right?”

“Ah… that’s….”

“They say they’re going to practice by reducing their sleep time, but is there some idiot who’s stopping that?”

“That’s not it.”

“Then do it. Non-responsiveness is the way for you to become stronger. “The stronger the non-responsiveness becomes, the stronger the family becomes.”

“I think so too.”

“However, since you are part of the non-response unit, you should not affect the unit’s training with excessive training. “As long as that is coordinated, I don’t think there will be any problem.”

Yu Jiha’s face brightened.

“thank you.”

“Is this something to be thankful for? Anyway, just work hard.”

“yes!”

Yeon Ho-jeong said to Yang Heum.

“My sword power has improved since last time. “I don’t know what you’re practicing, but I hope you grow further in the future.”

“thank you.”

“Then I’m going in.”

“uh? Grand Duke, aren’t you going to practice any more today?”

Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.

“I’m going to get some rest today too.”

* * *

Of course, Yeon Ho-jeong did not rest. As he entered the residence, he displayed his spear skills without hesitation.

At Daeyeonmujang, he exercised his physical strength and advanced skills, and at Huwon, he honed his spear skills.

I haven’t missed a single day of training in the past four months. The household warriors thought Yeon Ho-jeong went to sleep right after finishing his physical training, but he only slept after swinging his spear at least once.

‘do.’

Pabababak!

About a dozen spear strikes hit each of the five pieces of firewood thrown in the air. The firewood that was hit became tattered as if torn by the claws of a wild beast.

‘also.’

While dancing with Yang Heum, I realized that my martial arts skills had reached a new level. Now, with a little more polish, I felt like I could replace the weapon.

Coo!

It was time to swing the spear again with a powerful forward motion.

There was a knock on the gate from afar.

“Grand Duke. “The head of the family is calling.”

“Huh? What’s going on?”

“Me too…”

Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.

“Are you really just going to rest today?”
