Chapter 111 Fighting the Storm

 When the coach and students saw that everything was okay, they turned around and continued practicing.
Tingyun heard two boys beside him whispering.
A boy with small eyes said: "How come the gap between girls is bigger than the gap between humans and monkeys?"
Another boy with dark skin said: "Isn't that right? I accidentally dropped the target, so why should I be so aggressive?
"If that beauty hadn't solved the problem on her own, I would have spoken up for her! I'm a righteous person and I don't want anyone to be bullied!"
The little eyes smiled: "You just can't see beautiful women being bullied, right?"
The dark-skinned boy laughed and scolded: "You are insulting my character!"
The two joked for a while and then continued practicing.
Tingyun witnessed the whole process and was not surprised by Senior Lixue's reaction.
She is such an elegant and gentle person, neither humble nor overbearing. She is a little too cautious in her dealings with others, but this does not mean that she is weak and can be bullied.
After Tingyun saw that everything was okay, he continued to practice under the guidance of the coach.
After this exercise, it’s time for technical reaction exercises.
The coach looked around the audience and said loudly: "Now, let's practice simulated confrontation. We are still in groups of two. Practice seriously, but be careful not to hurt others. Okay, let's get started."
The students began to practice one after another.
This was Tingyun's first time in class, and he had no idea how to get started with this type of simulated confrontation practice.
The coach worked very hard to get him to sign up happily, letting him attack and block by himself, and explained while practicing.
After practicing for a while, I heard a cry from beside me, followed by the sound of my body hitting the ground.
The students looked around again and saw Li Xue lying on the ground with a painful expression on her face.
The sturdy girl stood opposite, looking proud.
There was a tall girl next to her. She frowned and said to the sturdy girl:
"Qian Li, you went too far! It's just practice, how could you be so cruel? You almost kicked people away!"
Qian Li raised her head and retorted: "I'm just performing normally, why am I so cruel? It's because she didn't beat me!
"Besides, when you come to learn martial arts, you just want to learn how to hit people, but you also have to be prepared to be beaten!
"You are so delicate that you can't bear hardships. Why are you here? Are you here to act weak and make people feel bad?"
Her attitude of not only not being sorry, but also escalating to a personal attack made everyone unable to stand it, and several could not help but accuse her.
And the righteous dark-skinned boy just now couldn't help but rush to Qian Li:
"Hey, is it still reasonable to hit someone hard?
"Then let's put it this way, if I beat you, you can also say that you don't need to be beaten! When you come to practice martial arts, you must be prepared to be beaten!"
When Qian Li heard this, she immediately shouted:
"Are you going to hit me? Oh, everyone heard it, the boy hit the girl! I didn't even say a word to him, but he came up and hit me!"
The dark-skinned boy's eyes widened when he heard this: "Don't make false accusations. When did I hit you?"
"Just now, everyone heard it. If so many people weren't watching, I'm afraid you would have done it!" Qian Li said aggressively.
"You..."
Boys' mouths are usually not as sharp as girls'. Dark-skinned boys are blocked and speechless.
The students were admonishing, accusing, and watching, and the scene was a bit chaotic.
Tingyun saw that Senior Lixue hadn't gotten up yet, so he walked toward her to see if she was injured.
As soon as he walked to her side, he saw the tall girl helping Li Xue to sit up and asked with concern: "How do you feel? Are you not hurt?"
Li Xue shook her head: "I'm fine. I was just speechless for a while."
Just now, Qian Li flew up and kicked Li Xue hard in the heart, causing her to take a few steps back and fall to the ground.
My brain went blank for a moment, and my chest felt so tight that I couldn't speak.
After taking it easy for a while, I feel much better now.
When Tingyun saw that she was fine, he didn't step forward again.
Li Xue raised her head, and her misty eyes met his, looking a little pitiful.
Tingyun felt that he should ask something at this time. He bent down and looked at Li Xue: "Senior, are you okay? Why don't you sit outside and rest for a while?"
"Thank you, I'm fine." Li Xue shook her head.
This is like repeating the conversation with the tall girl again.
After Tingyun asked this question, he didn't know what to say.
Li Xue waited for a while, and when she saw that he stopped talking, she felt inexplicably disappointed. She lowered her head, put her hands on the ground, and stood up.
Tingyun straightened up, turned his head, saw Qian Li still making a noise, and turned around and walked over there.
He did not answer Qian Li, but looked at the coach and asked calmly: "Coach, I want to ask you a question - what is martial ethics?"
The coach knows this problem very well.
When he was practicing martial arts in the sports academy, he was taught over and over again by his teacher, and later he taught his students the same way.
He blurted out: "Advocate martial arts and virtue, cultivate one's moral character."
The students were tired of hearing the quarrel, and when they saw the two of them talking calmly, they all looked over.
Tingyun smiled and nodded:
"Coach, you said it very well.
Although I don’t know what martial ethics specifically include, I also know that stopping a fight requires force. Wu should be the ability to stop fighting.
"Before picking up weapons, you should first learn to put down weapons."
The students listened to him quietly. Even Qian Li had to quiet down because no one paid attention to her.
Stopping the cloud and looking around at the people present:
"I think the most basic goal of practicing martial arts is self-interest, protecting yourself and the people you care about, and cultivating yourself.
"The higher level is to be altruistic, act bravely, and uphold fairness and justice.
"Maybe we won't reach a higher level in the end, but at least we shouldn't distort the original intention of learning martial arts."
At this moment, Tingyun glanced at Qian Li coldly, and then looked away:
"So, I really don't agree with the idea that learning martial arts means learning to hit people, and that you just start hurting people with your hands without learning anything!"
Qian Li understood that he was accusing her. But he spoke calmly and logically, without naming names. She couldn't find a reason to act rudely, and her face turned red.
The dark-skinned boy said loudly next to him: "Well said!"
The students also nodded.
The coach nodded approvingly and gratefully to Tingyun:
"This student is right, martial arts training is not for fighting and fighting. People who practice martial arts should have the qualities of kindness, courage, wisdom and perseverance."
When Tingyun said these words, Li Xue stood behind him, staring at his back through the crowd, with gratitude and hope in her heart.
He came forward to defend her!
Just like how I comforted her by the Qingshui River when I was afraid that she would not be able to think about it.
But, is this kind of protection just out of compassion and a sense of justice?
Chapter completed!
