Chapter 27 Kick Again

  "I once heard a Taekwondo coach say that the five-segment kick is the ultimate technique in Taekwondo, where after taking off and hovering in mid-air during a charge, you can kick out five times at one or multiple targets! If so, how fast must the kicking speed be while airborne!"

  A student sighed, everyone is here to learn Taekwondo and also likes it very much. It's natural to admire those black belt masters in daily life.

  "Yes, I've seen it on TV before, some black belt coaches performing special techniques with five-segment kicks. Not only do they need to control the speed and power well, but more importantly, the supporting points in the air and the center of gravity must be on a straight line!"

  Two relatively senior students of Taekwondo were discussing in hushed tones!

  This five-segment kick is awesome! It's so powerful that only a black belt master can perform it!

  And with a five-section kick, the difficulty of execution is extremely high. Not only does the waist strength need to be sufficient, but also the leg and aerial balance must reach an extremely high standard!

  After all, the time spent in mid-air is short, and kicking five times is equivalent to kicking out five feet within one second or half a second.

  "Li Ling, this is the heaviest punching bag we have here. It's filled with pure sand grains and weighs fifty kilograms. Normally, it's used for punching practice." Liu Qian slapped his palm on a black sandbag hanging from a high rack, which had a harder exterior than ordinary sandbags.

  A sandbag made of cowhide can withstand very heavy blows without breaking!

  "Senior, this sandbag is what we usually use to practice punching, and we also need to wear the thickest boxing gloves. But if Li Ling uses it to show off his five-segment kick, won't he hurt his foot?" Some of the students were worried about Li Ling, and they knew more about it.

  Liu Jian nodded in agreement and looked at Li Ling, whose calm expression seemed to tell Liu Jian that the weight of this sandbag was very suitable for him!

  The heavier the sandbag, the greater the impact and collision it can withstand!

  Li Ling walked up to the punching bag and threw a light punch at its outer edge, feeling its weight and thickness. He touched it and hugged it.

  "It's it, I'll use it to show off my five-segment kick!" Li Ling relaxed his body, took slow steps back, and pulled away from the sandbag, keeping a five-meter buffer zone.

  "Awesome! Just look at his posture and demeanor, you can tell that Li Ling's skill level is extremely high!"

  "Yes, otherwise, Yue Jie wouldn't be able to break through the opponent's defense!"

  After Li Ling was ready.

  The other students also voluntarily gave up a space! Giving Li Ling enough room to maneuver.

  Xiao Yue blocked Li Ling's path at this moment, with his arms spread wide. His eyes gazed at Li Ling, as if trying to see through what he was thinking, but Li Ling's expression remained calm and unreadable.

  "This is a fifty-kilogram sandbag, five segments of kicking that kind of kick into the air. Once it's launched, it's hard to take back, what if you kick your foot off? And... doing this is so boring..." Xiao Yue was angry, but she also didn't want Li Ling to get hurt!

  Xiao Yue isn't heartless either, but rather tough on the outside and soft on the inside. Don't be fooled by her usual lion-like roar, she's actually very kind at heart.

  After all, that sandbag, Xiao Yue usually tried it out, just punching with his fists would make his wrists ache, let alone using his feet which were not as agile as his hands!

  "Kick off your feet and I'll carry you on my back!" Li Ling said with a sly smile, accidentally blurting out such flirtatious words.

  "Who wants to carry you! You broke your leg, it serves you right!" Xiao Yue said in a bad temper.

  Xiao Yue sat on the cushion with a huff, her heart still simmering with anger. What an ungrateful person! But then another thought flashed through her mind - what was this guy really thinking?

  "Right, Li Ling, we've seen your match with Xiao Yue and know you're quite skilled, but still, don't overexert yourself! You might end up getting hurt and it's not worth it!" Liu Qian also thought the difficulty was a bit too high and advised him to be careful, or he might end up breaking his leg again and it would be the Taekwondo gym's responsibility.

  If it's three-section kick, these three sections are still easy to perform for someone who has been practicing kicking legs for a long time. But five-section kick, don't look at just two more kicks, it's these two that pull the distance between masters and ordinary masters apart.

  In the martial arts world, if you are one move behind, you lose!

  Therefore, many masters lose in a move or half a move!

  A master makes his move, one move decides victory or defeat!

  "Don't worry!" Li Ling patted Liu Qian's shoulder. Although Liu Qian was a bit silly, he was still a kind and honest person!

  "What's called the five-segment kick isn't as difficult to master as it seems! At least, making a show of it, ordinary taekwondo practitioners can still manage it, only afterwards, being mythologized, nobody dares to try!" Li Ling stood sideways and crouched down.

  "First, the main thing is to compress all the force into a square inch below the navel in the waist area. This is because the release of power starts from the waist! Just like the gravitational force of the earth, it serves as a center and pulls the surrounding forces!

  After Li Ling finished explaining, he took a deep breath and compressed his energy to that position, which was actually the Dan Tian."

  "Then, it's the footwork, steady and slow! Store power, jump up, use the waist's just-stored power, rotate the body thirty degrees, press down the front of the body, control the abdominal force, turn sideways, and kick out five feet in a row!" Li Ling said, then followed the previous rhyme, and walked slowly over.

  When advancing forward, Li Ling uses the broken step! The broken step starts faster! Acceleration is also fast! Possesses inertia and impact force.

  He sprang up, kicked his feet, and saw that Li Ling's body was suspended in mid-air for a meter before he started tapping the sandbag with five consecutive kicks: boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

  The last turn somersault, another aerial spin kick!

  Hoo...hoo...

  After Li Lingchong stepped into the wind, a stable figure stood beside the sandbag!

  The sandbag remained still as if it had not been hit at all!

  Just like an object that has been subjected to a violent impact, yet on the surface there is not even a hint of a mark.

  After kicking these five kicks! Add a spinning kick later!

  Inside the dojo, an atmosphere of solemn stillness! Even the sound of a falling needle can be heard!

  "So fast!" The first impression everyone had was how fast it was!

  Li Ling slowly let out a breath, calm and composed, turned around and walked away!

  Suddenly, a sound like muffled thunder, "bang", came from inside the sandbag!

  The sandbag burst open as if it had been blown up from the inside, and the sand poured out like raindrops, scattering all over the ground!

  This sandbag was actually kicked exploded by Li Ling!

  "......!" The whole audience was shocked and their mouths were all agape!

  "Sorry, just... kicked it a bit too much!" Li Ling actually didn't kick the last roundhouse kick, and the sandbag wouldn't have burst like that. It was just the last kick, Li Ling used the internal power of Huaxia Kung Fu, commonly known as "inner strength".
