Becoming a life winner from infancy

Chapter 110: 108 is the child who can't leave me

The concept of weapon martial arts that Fang You mentioned is somewhat similar to the concept of armed combat sports from my previous life, which involves fighting with weapons.

In most cases, armed combat is certainly more powerful than unarmed combat, which is why conventional martial arts and weapon martial arts are usually divided into two separate event groups in regular martial arts competitions.

Considering the danger and complexity of weapon-based sports, the qualifications required for a martial arts hall are higher, and only a few large children's martial arts halls have access to them.

Jingji Children's Martial Arts Hall is one of the few with this qualification.

That's also the reason Fang You is here.

"You know about this too?" Meng Xing was somewhat surprised.

"Weapons are great!" Fan Tianyu clapped his hands, "I want to learn the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique, to be unrivaled in martial arts!"

"Can we learn weapons? I want to practice the spear! A glint of cold light arrives first, soon followed by the spear thrusting forth like a dragon! Biubiubiu!"

Brother, your two guns aren't even the same type...

Meng Xing patiently called for the children to quiet down, then continued to explain: "Weapon martial arts are actually quite rare in children's martial arts halls because they are high risk, and the learning difficulty is greater."

"We martial artists also advocate a step-by-step approach in learning martial arts. Generally speaking, only after mastering the basic skills of hand-to-hand combat can one attempt to learn weapons, so teachers generally don't recommend starting with weapons..."

"So that means you don't have it?"

Fang You's casual question immediately sent Meng Xing's blood pressure soaring.

[Meng Xing thinks you're an overly ambitious bad kid who really deserves a good thrashing! Emotional Energy +20!] Find your next read on ???

"It depends on what you want to learn?"

Meng Xing said with a smile, "We do have some weapon martial arts courses."

Fang You thought about it: "Due to some habits from when I was little, I have a preference for dual-wielding short weapons, such as double crutches, Filipino Stick Fighting, or dual daggers can also be—"

Wow, he sure knows a lot...

Although this kid is a bit overambitious, he really did put in the effort and is genuinely interested in martial arts.

"Fang You, you really are well-informed!"

Meng Xing said with a smile, "However, we don't teach any of the things you mentioned in our martial arts hall."

Because I don't know how to!

I'm an honest Martial Arts Hall head! I never fake anything!

"Ah, you don't have anything here?"

Fang You pushed his glasses up and clicked his tongue, "I came here because I heard that you teach weapon martial arts."

"It's just that we don't teach the ones you mentioned. We mainly offer Sword Dao and nunchaku classes, which are quite expensive because it's one-on-one private teaching..."

Sword Dao is not so interesting, nunchaku, huh...

It's also not impossible for dual wielding.

But the problem is:

"Money is not an issue, the question is whether I can really learn something here?"

[Meng Xing thinks you're a boastful kid who should be shown the harsh reality of the martial arts world! Emotional Energy +30!]

"You, don't worry, of course you can!"

Meng Xing nodded with a smile," However, it's getting late now, so kids, let's take a ten-minute break for free time. During this period, everyone is free to look around our Martial Arts Hall or talk with your parents about the martial arts sports you're interested in. In half an hour, let's gather at the main dojo, okay?"

"Okay!"

Looking around, the children's enthusiasm was still high, talking excitedly with their parents about what they had seen and heard at the Martial Arts Hall.

At that moment, Fang You also bumped into his father, Fang Guanghui.

"How is it, son, do you find it interesting?"

"Not bad." Fang You nodded, "But I need to experience it more before I can judge what they are really capable of..."

"Alright, if you decide to do this, I'll discuss it with Nuo Nuo's dad and see if Nuo Nuo is interested in joining a children's martial arts class."

"You're not expecting Uncle Xia to pick me up again after regular practice, are you?"

Fang You frowned, "I can already take the bus home by myself now; you don't need to come and get me."

"Ah, I'm not worried about that."

Fang Guanghui scratched his head, "I'm just concerned that you might be bored here all by yourself! After all, aside from those activities you can do alone, like reading and studying, you always did the group activities with Nuo Nuo. Dad's afraid you might be lonely on your own."

...

Fang You was about to argue, but after thinking it over, he realized that Nuo Nuo had been a part of nearly all his social activities over the last eight years.

So in front of my parents, I'm considered a child who can't be without Nuo Nuo?

Humph, such a thought is laughable.

It's that kid who can't be without me, that's more like it.

I simply happened to evolve on the same path as her, and as she grows, she will have her own life, and she will gradually drift away from me.

We can't possibly do everything together forever.

Though Nuo Nuo isn't bad in terms of physical strength, martial arts sports are still too dangerous for her.

"What, did Dad hit a nerve, and now you're too nervous to speak?"

Fang You rolled his eyes at his dad, "Not at all. If you have nothing else, you can go back. I'll be fine here by myself."

"Alright, call me if you need anything!"

"Go ahead."

And so, as the parents looked on, Fang You managed to send his own father, Fang Guanghui, packing.

"Isn't... this child's parents a bit too easy-going, letting him handle things on his own at the age of eight?"

"My kid is ten and still needs me to stand by the bathroom door at the mall, fearing he'd be kidnapped by some bad person."

"That must be because your kid has a few issues... ah no, I misspoke."

Fang You didn't care about others' opinions on his relationship with his father.

The bond between him and his father couldn't be explained in just a few words.

However, Fang Guanghui's trust in him also granted Fang You a lot of space for free development.

Of course, this was also because he had never let his father down over the years with his exceptional abilities.

After all, a non-dominant father always needs a dominant son to lean on.

After sending his father away, Fang You began his tour of the Children's Martial Arts Hall.

His idea of joining martial arts classes was to rely on practical experience to gain true knowledge, first to see if he could capture more knowledge energy this way, and second to try to activate special quests by engaging in "things he had never tried before."

Since he was here, he would definitely pick something he liked to learn.

Fang You didn't like close combat, which he found inelegant.

As for weapon-based martial arts, having had three years of experience with a drum set and now having reached level six in drumming, Fang You, who possessed the talent of "Dual Focus," was inclined to leverage his expertise with dual short weapons.

While there were no weapons that truly approximated drumsticks, nunchucks seemed to be a good choice—

Fang You, well-versed in martial arts theory, clearly understood the characteristics of the nunchucks.

Nunchucks are a type of short weapon that combines speed, power, agility, and strategy. The core technique lies in using rapid wrist movements to give the weapon high linear velocity, resulting in powerful strikes, allowing Fang You to leverage his "Extraordinary Wrist Strength" talent.

Through mastering techniques such as spinning, swinging, and flipping, one can launch continuous, multi-angle attacks in a short span, making it difficult for the opponent to defend.

Furthermore, nunchucks are both excellent for performance and real combat.

Bruce Lee, the representative figure, once dazzled on screen with his stylish nunchuck moves, becoming an everlasting legend in people's hearts;

In terms of music, the once-popular Alan also made a name worldwide with his song "Nunchucks," and its lyrics, "Quickly use the double-edged sticks, hmm-hmm-hah-hi," became the coolest and most unrestrained rap in the hearts of kids from that era.

Alan in that MV was indeed very cool; his youthful body filled with allure!

At home, Fang You didn't have the chance to play with all kinds of weapons, as his mother, Chen Xuan, was more strict than his father when it came to supervision, especially averse to dangerous things. Besides, Fang You himself wanted to focus on getting his studies done, so he hadn't indulged in other interests.

He had some expectations about trying it out here.

Looking at the nunchucks hanging on the wall of the dojo, Fang You felt an urge to grab a stool and take them down, instinctively reaching out his hand.

Just then, a voice rang out behind him.

"Hey!"
