“The sixth lesson of martial arts—grasping time,” Xu Jingming explained to his girlfriend.

“Grasping time?” Li Miaomiao was puzzled.

“Footwork is used to control space,” Xu Jingming said, “but in fact, grasping time is the key to becoming a top expert. In combat, everyone needs time to move, and it takes time for the arrows to pierce through the air! The enemy also needs time to move and time to react!”

“We need to instinctively control this period!” Xu Jingming said. “For example, it takes time for the enemy to strike again after missing a strike. For example, it also takes time for the enemy to find their footing after I repel the other party with my spear.”

“The changes in time on the battlefield are like flowing water,” Xu Jingming said. “There’s no need to deliberately calculate because there’s no time to calculate it in high-speed combat. However, you need to experience this ‘change in time.’ Through prolonged practice, you will naturally be in control of the time.”

“Take walking for example. You don’t consider whether to take a step using your left or right leg, yet you can still walk very steadily.”

“During combat, you will naturally notice the temporal changes in the battlefield after prolonged training. It’s like being able to swim; you will naturally use the changes in water. You will decide who to kill first and who to kill later when breaking a stalemate based on the time,” Xu Jingming said.

“When I fight, I will only be highly focused. I don’t dare to divert my attention and think too much,” Li Miaomiao said.

“In an intense battle, one might appear hyperactive, but the mind will naturally grasp all information and make rapid reactions,” Xu Jingming said.

“The mind can grasp information faster in an intense battle? A faster reaction?” Li Miaomiao was puzzled.

“Take your time practicing,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “You just need to know that your goal is to grasp time! Train in this aspect, and you will naturally become stronger. After cultivating the evolutionary method, a person’s potential has actually increased. It’s just that many people don’t know how to unearth it.”

Li Miaomiao nodded.

“If you master all the first six lessons and reach an extremely high level, you can reach the limit of Lv. 2,” Xu Jingming said. “But to reach Lv. 3 or even Lv. 4… it involves the mind.”

“Mind?” Li Miaomiao listened.

“Mind and will,” Xu Jingming said. “The seventh lesson of martial arts—mental tempering.”

“Mental tempering allows the mind to be calmer. Just like you can hear the slightest sound on a silent night—” Xu Jingming said. “—when your mind is calm enough, your body’s reaction will be much sharper!”

“The goal of mental tempering is to make the body’s reaction sharper and faster. It can even dig deeper into the body’s strength,” Xu Jingming said.

“Is mental tempering that magical?” Li Miaomiao was curious.

“It’s not like you don’t know that I spend eight hours a day tempering my mind,” Xu Jingming said. “Actually, I only have a vague guess about mental tempering, and I don’t have a deep understanding of it. However, I’m certain that the process of mental tempering can make the neural network signals in the body stronger and give me greater control over the body.”

A powerful neural signal greatly increased one’s control over the body.

“I’m only at Lv. 4 myself,” Xu Jingming said. “Therefore, I can only give people some guidance on mental tempering.”

“Oh.” Li Miaomiao nodded, still a little uncertain.

Mental tempering? Neural signals? Physical control?

“The eighth lesson is shield techniques, and the ninth lesson is spearmanship,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “The first seven lessons represent the basic system of martial arts and can be applied to all weapons. However, the knowledge I’ve amassed is ultimately in shield and spear techniques! Therefore, the last two lessons are about these two weapons.”

Li Miaomiao came to a realization. She practiced sword techniques, so she didn’t follow classes teaching shield and spear techniques.

“Nine martial arts classes.” Li Miaomiao nodded slightly. “Might of moves, speed of moves, footwork, transmission of might, relative speed, grasp of time, and mental tempering, followed by shield techniques and spear techniques.”

“Why do I feel like martial arts and weapon combat have suddenly become much clearer?” Li Miaomiao exclaimed in surprise.

“You graduated from university after all, so it’s easy for you to understand,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “Understanding theory is easy, but the training methods I came up with still require arduous training. Moreover, you have to figure it out in actual combat and training! Only by figuring it out by yourself can it be considered yours.”

Li Miaomiao nodded and praised, “I think you teach better than Master Liu Hai.”

“Although Master Liu Hai’s teaching is simpler and more direct, it is a way to teach fools. He doesn’t explain the basic principles and only gets people to practice repeatedly according to his teachings,” Li Miaomiao said. “They know it works, but they don’t know why. They will be puzzled over time and be even more puzzled when they encounter a bottleneck.”

“Jingming, you first teach them the principles so that they can have a clear direction. You then teach them training methods. I find that such training feels more grounded and breeds confidence,” Li Miaomiao said.

Xu Jingming smiled. “Let’s not talk about this. Let’s quickly edit the course!”

“The third and fourth lessons will begin charging today, right?” Li Miaomiao’s heart tightened.

“Yes, it’s time for the paid classes.” Xu Jingming nodded.

The first hour was free!

The first lesson of martial arts was 28 minutes, while the second lesson was 25 minutes, so only a small portion of the third lesson was free. One had to pay for the subsequent lessons.

Of course, no matter how long the entire paid course was, the cost was fixed at 1 Earth dollar. It wasn’t expensive, and it was only a test for people. Do you really like it? If you don’t, you probably won’t pay.

At 11 p.m., Xu Jingming and Li Miaomiao finished editing the classes and uploaded the third martial arts lesson, Footwork, and the fourth lesson, Transmission of Might, to the Martial Arts Center.

“It’s paid content now.” Xu Jingming and Li Miaomiao were nervous.

Xu Jingming was nervous. Would people like the detailed nine martial arts classes he had painstakingly prepared and spent so much effort on? How would they review it?



Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of the second day.

In the Life Evolution Bureau, sunlight shone in through the window, and one could faintly hear the sound of waves crashing.

Director Zhou sat at his desk and watched the classes in the Martial Arts Center. They were all classes conducted by world-class experts.

Although these people are all world-class experts, most of them fail at teaching. Director Zhou shook his head. However, it’s also within expectations. Only a small number of strong people know how to teach.

Liu Hai’s paid content has just reached 2 billion with a review score of 8.7. Director Zhou looked at the data. Xu Jingming’s paid content was launched less than a day ago, and he has received 1.2 billion with a review score of 8.3?

Director Zhou frowned slightly.

From a psychological point of view, he preferred Xu Jingming’s classes.

He clearly analyzed the essence of martial arts and weaponry combat. There were also practical drills and detailed training methods.

From the looks of it, I overestimated the education level of people around the world. The education level in underdeveloped countries isn’t high enough. Although the welfare benefits of the Earth Alliance are widespread and there are attempts to provide universal education, many people refuse to study even if they’re paid to do so. Director Zhou shook his head. Perhaps Liu Hai’s teaching method for fools that only mentions the simplest training methods without mention of the core ideas are well-liked?

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Someone knocked on the door.

“Come on in,” Director Zhou said.

The secretary walked in and immediately said, “I just received news that Tejano Xire is live-streaming at 11 p.m. tonight.”

“Oh?” Director Zhou pricked up his brows.

“From the number of payments, it’s impossible for others to threaten Xu Jingming and Liu Hai,” the secretary said. “But Tejano Xire’s influence isn’t inferior to that of Liu Hai and Xu Jingming. I guess… the three of them will ultimately fight for first place in the overall points ranking.”

Director Zhou nodded. “Alright, got it.”

The hours of the trio’s livestream were: Xu Jingming at 9 p.m., Liu Hai at 10 p.m., Tejano Xire at 11 p.m.—they scheduled it without any clashes so that the global public didn’t need to worry about whose livestream to watch.

In the virtual world.

Pang Ze sat in front of the window and faced the space scenery.

As expected of the Xu Jingming whom I think highly of. Pang Ze watched the course. He starts by analyzing martial arts from a scientific perspective. With such clear thinking, he has a chance to go further in martial arts.

People from my homeworld will only understand that everything is in line with science when they truly step into the universe.

Martial arts is also in line with science. Pang Ze looked at the review score and shook his head slightly. It’s already so simplified, but the review score is only 8.3? There’s nothing I can do about it; this is ultimately a global evaluation. It doesn’t change based on one’s will..
