Lin Tian remained unmoved, unable to charge forward just because of a few murmurs from others. The Taekwondo gym’s obvious trap was to let a female coach test the waters; win or lose, they had reasons to spin the outcome. These trainees had no idea of the intricacies involved and just wanted to see the excitement.
"Comrade Ning Luoxi, please have a discussion and exchange about martial arts with this coach," Lin Tian turned around and mockingly said to Ning Luoxi.
Ning Luoxi, caught in the crossfire, gave Lin Tian an annoyed glance, but since the four of them were a team now, it wasn’t easy for her to refuse, or else it would only make the Taekwondo gym laugh.
She walked up to the female coach and stood there, no different from an ordinary person, her body full of openings for attack, completely unguarded. Even the trainees noticed that Ning Luoxi had no defensive posture whatsoever.
"Oh my, I can’t bear to watch this, such a beautiful girl, and that young man actually lets her take the field. What if she gets hurt?"
"Damn it, is he even a man? He has no skill and still comes to provoke."
The female coach let out a disdainful cold laugh, waved her hand, and several assistants brought up two wooden posts, one placed in front of Ning Luoxi and the other in front of the coach. The posts were as thick as a calf’s leg and were made of high-quality solid wood, very tough.
"What is she trying to do?" Lin Tian turned his head and asked Zhang Lingyu and Xiao Manxuan standing behind him, puzzled about the use of wooden posts in a kicking match.
"They are testing their kicking power; just watch," Zhang Lingyu said.
As soon as she had spoken, the female coach got into position, waved her hand to signal the trainees to back away, and suddenly exhaling loudly, she delivered a spinning kick. With a "whoosh," the air buzzed as her leg moved with great speed. "Bang," it struck the wooden post.
The tough wooden post broke on impact, sending a piece flying off and crashing onto the wooden floor with a resounding "boom."
"Great, teacher did awesome!"
"Wow, our coach is so cool," exclaimed the male and female trainees, excited as if they’d been injected with adrenaline.
The female coach retracted her leg and nodded at Ning Luoxi, saying, "Please!"
However, Ning Luoxi shook her head and showed no intention of making a move, not even glancing at the wooden post. The exhilarated trainees began to discuss again, some saying it was impossible, some agreeing with Ning Luoxi’s decision not to kick, but most were still scornful of Lin Tian for letting a delicate beauty into the ring, since how could those slender legs possibly break a wooden post.
Listening to this made Lin Tian feel embarrassed; they actually called Ning Luoxi a delicate beauty, were they blind?
"Bring over three more wooden posts," Ning Luoxi spoke up, but the assistant was taken aback, not understanding what she meant.
"Add three more wooden posts, didn’t you hear?" Ning Luoxi glanced at her and said.
"Oh, okay," the assistant came to her senses, called over two male trainees, and brought three more posts, placing them beside the original one.
The trainees all looked on puzzled at the scene unfolding before them, wondering what Ning Luoxi was planning to do. Could she be aiming to perform a quadruple kick? Even the female coach couldn’t figure it out, knowing that performing a quad kick in the air with great power was feasible and not difficult to do in succession, but she didn’t believe Ning Luoxi could pull it off.
A quad kick in the air for show was something anyone could do with training, but to actually break wooden posts with kicks was something the coach acknowledged she was incapable of. That involved the capacity of the legs to withstand force and the speed of the kicks, which was very challenging.
Zhao Rong and Sister Jin, who had quarreled with Ning Luoxi over clothes, also looked on with disdain. In their eyes, breaking four wooden posts in succession was impossible; even the male coaches here couldn’t do it, much less a woman!
