Chapter 38: Tai Chi Fist, Initial Glimpse
It’s difficult, at least in Zhang Ren’s opinion.
Practicing Tai Chi Fist, even for those with talent in the circle, it takes at least three years to reach the beginner level. To enter the hall, it takes another five years. To achieve the next level, the Great Success Realm, it’s unrealistic to take less than ten years.
Calculating it this way, eighteen years have passed, and this is actually fast. Achieving mastery in thirty years is already quite remarkable.
After achieving the Great Success Realm, only a few masters were able to reach the pinnacle. They, despite having white hair, still possessed great Spirits and voices like a bell, thanks to long-term practice.
As for the higher Realm of Perfection, it probably only exists in legends.
Therefore, after progress slows in one fist technique at the Great Success Realm, many people will take a different path to practice a second fist technique, such as Xingyi Fist or Eight Trigrams Palm.
On one hand, this helps them integrate and understand better. Unintentionally, their skills might break through. On the other hand, those who can practice a fist technique for decades truly love martial arts. Practicing other martial arts, experiencing the differences among various fist techniques and appreciating their unique charms is also a joy.
Of course, with today’s change in the world, whether the past’s martial arts experience still applies is questionable. But Chen Fan hasn’t even reached the beginner level yet, thinking about practicing a second fist technique is truly too simple-minded.
He shook his head, walked to Wang Ping and a few others, and began instructing them on spear techniques.
Chen Fan looked at his Skill Bar and, with a thought, added some Experience Points.
