Pei Shu'er nodded. That day, Pei Shu'er and Tang Zan began the martial arts lessons, with Tang Zan mainly teaching Pei Shu'er his own Heart-breaking Technique, focusing on inner strength and martial arts.
These moves were swift, precise, and fierce, best suited for close combat.
Pei Shu'er first practiced breathing, as well as the horse stance.
It was manageable at first, but as time went on, she found it increasingly unbearable, though she gritted her teeth and persevered.
Because Tang Zan had said that she needed to hold the stance for half an hour at the start.
Eventually, Pei Shu'er felt that her legs were so sore that they didn't even feel like her own anymore.
Tang Zan's eyes were deep; generally, for a beginner, especially a woman and someone like Pei Shu'er without muscle, it would be impossible to hold the stance for long on the first try.
Yet she managed to hold it for so long.
Most people would have given up long before; she held it for twice as long as others.
