Chapter 24
“I don’t want to teach such weak-willed disciples.”
In Yeongmudang (Outer Martial Hall), the orders of the head instructor were absolute.
There was no overturning them.
Hyeonmun Dojang bellowed at the new disciples.
“You have ten days. Anyone who fails to reach the first level of Geon-gon Gu-gong will be held back as a group.”
Being held back meant they wouldn’t be allowed to advance to other foundational martial arts training.
It also meant drifting further from the dream of becoming an elite disciple.
Kwak Yeon had no choice but to leave the training hall.
Since he wasn’t allowed to carry a wooden sphere, he had no way to practice Geon-gon Gu-gong separately.
Hyeonmun Dojang’s harshness puzzled him.
But this time, it was his own fault.
He had been too fixated on Taiji Internal Arts, when even focusing solely on Geon-gon Gu-gong wouldn’t have been enough.
