Genius Martial Arts Trainer Chapter 80

◈ Transaction (2)

Zhuge Jinhee, still with a puzzled expression, asked again.

“But in the end, in order to develop that much strength, you have to invest time in external training, right? In any case, training external skills will be less efficient compared to training martial arts and internal skills.”

“The story is both right and wrong.”

Mujin said something that sounded like a Zen question, paused for a moment, then smiled and continued his explanation.

“First of all, for the current Lord Zhuge Jinxi, it is much more efficient to train external martial arts in parallel than to simply practice martial arts alone. To give a simple example, do you think it would be quick for someone learning martial arts for the first time to reach the level of creating good energy? Or do you think it would be quicker for someone who can make a Seongi to reach the stage of making a Seongang (扇罡)?”

“ah… … .”

She was able to understand Mujin’s meaning without difficulty.

As is the case in any field in the world, the higher you go, the more difficult it becomes to move on to the next level. On the other hand, things that were currently at a basic level could be easily raised with just a little practice.

“I understand the first reason. “Then what is the other reason?”

“The second reason is that external attack training cannot be done in a hurry in the first place, and too much time should not be invested.”

“You’re saying I shouldn’t invest a lot of time?”

“To be precise, you shouldn’t overdo it. To make this easier to understand, do you know how to become immune to poison?”

“yes. I understand that by ingesting a very small amount of a weak poison and enduring it, an immune system is created, and the level of the poison is raised little by little. “Isn’t this the method favored by the Sacheondang family?”

“yes. And this applies not only to poison, but also to wounds on the body. As the injured area heals, it often becomes stronger than before the injury. And the same goes for muscles. In fact, building strength means damaging your muscles and then recovering them to become stronger.”

“ah… … .”

Since Zhuge Dynasty came from a family that had no interest in foreign affairs, Zhuge Jinxi had an interesting expression on his face when he learned new facts.

“Then let’s think about poison again. “What would happen if you ingested poison in a hurry because you wanted to quickly achieve immortality?”

“Of course I will die.”

“The same goes for muscles. “You should only inflict injuries that are ‘recoverable’ and avoid stimulation as much as possible while the muscle is recovering.”

“ah! So, it means that you should not practice external exercises too much or for a long time.”

Jegal Jinhee clapped his hands in response to Mujin’s perfect analogy.

“You got it right. And finally, there is a third reason. That is the absence of an efficient training method. As mentioned in the previous two reasons, external training should not be overdone, nor should it take too long of a time. So, if there is no efficient training method, it is better to train internal and martial arts.”

“In other words, you are saying that Mujin knows the effective training method.”

Instead of answering her question directly, Mujin smiled strangely.

And that smile alone was enough of an answer.

The moment when she showed strong curiosity about Mujin’s ‘efficient training method’.

“Well, I guess this is enough to make up for the loss that Jegal Jinhee suffered.”

Mujin changed the flow of conversation.

He didn’t agree to this deal just to reveal all the information he had.

As if he had understood Mujin’s intentions, Jegal Jinhee opened his mouth with an intelligent smile.

“Then I guess I should listen to that training method even if it means losing money again. “Is there anything you want to ask me, Mujin?”

In response to her question, Mujin took a moment to gather his thoughts.

‘You can’t suddenly ask Zhuge Emperor for important internal information.’

There is a certain order to things. If you asked something like that from the first transaction(?), the other person could have cut off the transaction.

After pondering for a moment, Mujin thought of a good first transaction item.

“I heard that Zhuge Dynasty is researching a wide variety of martial arts.”

“… … However, since I am a woman, I cannot access all martial arts.”

Mujin smiled lightly at her words that seemed to be slightly in check. What Mujin wanted this time was not Shingungjeolhak or ascending martial arts.

“If so, are there any martial arts or techniques that increase the elasticity of the skin?”

“… … What is the elasticity of your skin? “This does exist, right?”

Zhuge Jinxi asked with a puzzled expression. There was such a thing as martial arts. It was a technique that was mostly practiced by slightly older women within the family.

What puzzled her was why Mujin was looking for such a martial artist.

“I’ve been researching something recently, and I thought that martial arts like that might be helpful.”

Mujin made up an excuse to see her look embarrassed.

Actually, I asked because I thought it would be good to have it or not. Because it wasn’t the catch that Mujin needed.

I intentionally mentioned a light item in order to continue doing business with her in the future, and I asked because I thought of someone who would give me an appropriate gift if I received it.

“I see. If that’s the case, I think I can give it as much as I want. “It’s not a very important martial art.”

“Thank you. Jegal Jin-hee, my lord. Well, since it is late today, I will teach you some ways to practice external exercises starting tomorrow. Amitabha Buddha.”

“thank you. I’ll come back again tomorrow. Let’s go now. Monk Hyeongwang.”

“Hehehe. “Please descend carefully.”

Just like that, Zhuge Jinxi, who promised the first deal, went down to Shaolin Temple.

* * *

After that day. Every day, whenever the Shaolin Temple was receiving visitors, Zhuge Jinhui visited Hyeon-gwang’s residence.

Each time, Mujin sparred with her first.

This was partly because it was easy to get used to using force and tension when sparring with a girl of a similar level, but more than that, it was to watch her martial arts and find out where she was lacking.

“According to what I have observed so far, it feels like Master Jegal Jinhee uses these two movements separately. “This can be corrected through energy flow, but it can be easily overcome by increasing the strength and flexibility of the side.”

In this way, Mujin developed an external training method based on the weaknesses she discovered through sparring each day. So, she taught me some fitness-style exercises.

We also had small conversations in between teaching exercise methods.

Sometimes it was a story about martial arts, but other times it was a story about the internal affairs of the Zhuge Dynasty.

However, this did not mean asking for major confidential information about the Zhuge family.

“Do you have many brothers or sisters, Lord Zhuge Jinhui?”

In this way, she asked a kind of personal question, and through her answer, Mujin was able to infer internal details on her own.

“W-Why are you asking that!?”

Of course, at first she even blushed and showed rejection.

At that time, Mujin taught her exercises again. When she focused on exercising, she lost the strength to use psychological warfare, and when she exercised together, it was easier to open up her heart.

And this was something Mujin was all too familiar with.

Being a health trainer wasn’t something you could do well with only ‘exercise knowledge’. You must be knowledgeable in educational methods that provide knowledge, and you must also have the eloquence and service spirit to continue conversations with members.

‘There were people like that sometimes. ‘Some people are reluctant to talk about their personal history during PT.’

Mujin had experienced the case of Jegal Jinhee several times. There was one easiest way to deal with this class.

All you have to do is exercise hard.

Then, even if it was just because I wanted to take a break, I often talked about my personal life without being asked. She would tell a long story about the story she shared with her friend yesterday.

“Okay, let’s go fifteen times this time. You must have correct posture. If your posture is wrong, exercise effectiveness decreases. “It may put a strain on your joints or ligaments for no reason.”

That’s why Mujin pushed her hard.

Whenever her posture was slightly off, instead of just telling her verbally, he directly touched her body to correct it.

‘I bumped into him hundreds of times in Dalian anyway, so this should be okay, right?’

If it had been another woman, I would have been careful, but I thought this level of light contact between martial arts people was okay anyway.

“!!!”

Of course, it was just Mujin’s idea.

“ruler. “Don’t be nervous.”

Every time Mujin’s hand touched her, she flinched and Mujin cautioned her.

“Let’s go fifteen! great. Just like that! how is it? “Do you feel any irritation in your side?”

“yes? Now, stimulation!?”

“If you talk while exercising, your breathing becomes disturbed. “Don’t talk, just focus on stimulation!”

“!!!”

‘Now, focus only on stimulation!?’

Every time Mujin’s arm touched his side and pushed it back up, blood rushed to Jegal Jinhee’s head.

‘Seo, is it really a handsome guy again!?’

Was it because of the excessive stimulation? Even though she had only completed one round of her fifteen, her face was extremely flushed.

“I think you gave me too much power. “Let’s catch our breath and move on to the next exercise.”

At Mujin’s words, she took a deep breath and thought.

‘Wake! You must not fall for the handsome men of the same age… … But now I think he’s too dependable to be called a dongja… … No, then you are now a monk and not a student!’

Mujin, who realized that her breathing was quite rough, thought it was time to ask a question again.

“ah. “Then, is there anyone who is close to you, Zhuge Jinhui, among the brothers?”

Like someone caught thinking of a bad idea, she suddenly raised her head and shouted urgently.

“Tongue, among brothers!? “Well, I’m kind of close with my younger sisters!”

When she answered about her personal history, which she had tried to hide until a moment ago, Mujin thought about it to himself.

As expected, the right answer was to make people exercise until they were tired.

* * *

From that day on, Zhuge Jinxi continued to climb Mount Song.

Each time, Mujin would spar with her, teach her exercises, and occasionally have private conversations with her, whose face was red.

‘Hmm. Why am I doing this? It really feels like I’m doing PT with a female member.’

For some reason, Mujin brought back memories of modern times.

‘It’s a PT with a female member… … .’

In many ways, it was a cautious matter. Even though there was no particular purpose, one wrong touch was likely to cause fatigue, and I had seen many young trainers who couldn’t control their s*xual desires and got into trouble.

‘If you think about it, the words haven’t come out yet.’

This is the phrase you hear most often when conducting PT with female members. In particular, there was a magic sentence that would be heard out of 100 times when instructed to do weight-centered exercise rather than aerobic or stretching.

While Mujin was lost in reminiscing about the past for a moment, Jegal Jinhee’s voice woke him up.

“Mujin-dongja. “I have one question.”

“You tell me. “Jegal Jinhee, Lord.”

“If I exercise like this, will my body become like that of a Mujin boy?”

“… … .”

I wondered why it didn’t come out.

‘But if you think of it as my body, it’s fine.’

There were some female members who were afraid that just because they lifted the 5kg kettlebell a few times, they would become Jang Mi-ran or Ma Dong-seok, so I thought Mujin should be given extra points for using herself as the target of comparison, as she has a well-balanced and muscular body.

“ha ha ha. Don’t worry. Jegal Jin-hee, my lord. “To grow this much, you need to do a lot more diverse exercises with weights that are dozens of times heavier than what you’re lifting now.”

“ah… … “It was more difficult than I thought.”

But why? For some reason, she didn’t look relieved, but rather slightly disappointed.

“Do you want to bulk up like me?”

“If only I could improve my martial arts skills that way.”

At her words, a light of admiration appeared in Mujin’s eyes for a moment.

‘Well, she was also a kind of athlete in modern times. ‘She was treated like a woman who didn’t know anything.

She went all the way to Namchang to spar with him, then turned around and came to Shaolin Temple. This probably means that the desire to rise is strong.

Considering her sincerity, it seemed like she needed some sincere advice.

“hmm. In reality, women tend to gain less muscle than men even if they put in the same amount of effort. In order for Jegal Jin-hee, my lord, to build a body of the same level as mine, he had to work steadily for a longer period of time than me. And you will have to train your body rigorously.”

“… … “It’s the difference between men and women.”

Mujin added something to her, who looked somewhat bitter.

“Also, unlike me, for Lord Zhuge Jinhui, external work is an additional thing. Isn’t your martial arts meant to be light and soft? If you force your body to grow too much, it may actually hinder your martial arts skills. “I think it would be right to train your body only to a level where you can maintain that softness and lightness.”

At Mujin’s words, Zhuge Jinhui’s expression became mysterious.

She seemed to think for a moment, then sighed and answered.

“Thank you for your words of comfort. Mujin Dongja.”

“I’m not offering comfort, I’m just telling you the truth. Oh, I’d rather take this opportunity to teach you a few more movements to increase flexibility.”

Mujin decided to teach her some yoga movements.

Is it because I felt that Mujin’s words were sincere? Small ripples appeared in Zhuge Jinxi’s eyes.

“thank you. Mujin Dongja. “If you need help at any time, please let me know and I will do my best to help.”

Instead of the tinkling look she often showed, she responded with her original elegant and humble attitude.

I didn’t know at the time.

The fact that holding a yoga position involves more frequent physical contact than holding a weight position.

“Now, you need to lie down more.”

Every time Mujin touches her body, he tries to fix her still awkward posture.

“Hey Iik!!”

Her face turned bright red and she let out a sound that I couldn’t tell if it was a scream or a moan.
