"Brother Bai, you martial arts practitioners have good eyesight and can see clearly from such a distance! This is the Taekwondo Hall of Lushan International that I mentioned to you. I heard that it is one of the only three branches of the International Taekwondo League in Bashu. It is qualified to assess and issue ranks below the third and third sections of the black belt. The owner is Park Ji-chang, the youngest black belt fifth section in Korean history."

Jay Chou widened his eyes and looked hard from a distance, but he couldn't see anything clearly. He heard what Bai Ze said so surely, even Sun Lei on the side was a little surprised.

"Now the business promotion of these martial arts abroad has been completely commercialized. The effect of selling martial arts as a product is so amazing. Even the community is not spared, and such a large-scale training center has been opened. In comparison, Chinese martial arts are much worse. Not to mention the difficulty of internal martial arts, there are a few external kung fu that can be learned from each other. No wonder they have been making a lot of thunder and rain, and they are always on the decline."

Bai Ze laughed and sighed.

"Chinese martial arts are good, but they have learned too many problems, cannot accept new ideas, and are too complicated and too particular. Therefore, it is difficult to form a standardized system similar to Taekwondo and Karate, which is easy to promote, so it is difficult for most people to accept, especially those ordinary people without foundation." Sun Lei seemed to hear Bai Ze's speech and immediately inserted a sentence from the side, "Chinese martial arts is like Chinese cuisine, with both colors, fragrance, taste, delicious, and everything is good, but this requires the master's meticulous work for more than ten years, and it is a slow skill of meticulous work. Foreign martial arts are simple and direct, just like KFC and McDonald's. After counting, there are hamburgers, fries, chicken wings and other things, which can be made by individuals in accordance with the operating manual. There are essential differences between them and cannot be compared!!"

"What's more, throughout the ages, violent institutions have to be in the hands of the country. Even if you practice kung fu and practice to the point of being invincible in the world, if you are not recruited, what do you want to do? Rebel? Or be a ranger who regards the law of the country as nothing?"

"Hey, squad leader, what you said is a bit meaningful!"

I never thought that if such depth was the one who came from Sun Lei, who had never practiced martial arts before, Bai Ze immediately turned his head and looked at Sun Lei in surprise.

"Take! What's this? I know a lot of things, and it's all a little bit! I applied for the Peking University School of Economics for the college entrance examination. Although the school has not started yet, I have started to conduct research now. The things just now are just a little bit of my experience these days, so I'm just a little bit of it!!"

He deliberately put on a stern face and pretended to be very serious. Sun Lei raised her smooth chin and put her hands behind her back, but she couldn't help but smile in her eyes, looking proud.

"Brother Bai, don't listen to her. These are all my sister Yanyan told her a few days ago, what kind of research she lied to you!!" Seeing Bai Ze's eyes constantly looking at Sun Lei, Zhou Jie immediately burst into laughter and opened his mouth to expose his sister's big words. Even Sun Lei couldn't help laughing, and kept laughing, and a crisp sound spread throughout the streets and alleys for a long time.

"Let's go in and have a look. Although my cousin is still in college, she is a guest coach here and comes back to teach students every winter and summer vacation. She is an authentic third-section black belt, very awesome! I told her about what happened in Mount Emei last time. She is very interested in you. She originally planned to find some time to introduce you to you after school starts, but I didn't expect to meet you today. I happened to meet you and get to know you."

"What's this called? Make friends with martial arts!" Seeing that Zhou Jie and Sun Lei were both excited, Bai Ze followed them in.

The Taekwondo Hall here is a membership system. Except for the students and members who pay the fees, outsiders will only be asked to come in and visit once a week on the opening publicity day. However, the regulations are dead and people are alive. It is obviously not the first time Sun Lei and Zhou Jie have come here. There are people here as coaches, so they said a few words to the staff at the door and then let them go.

The side of the lobby on the first floor is separated by glass curtains and a large area is divided into a large area on the east side. At this time, many young people in white Taoist uniforms are arranged into several teams according to the order. Under the guidance of the coach, they practice the most basic high kicking movements one by one.

When everyone left the list, they shouted loudly, excited and full of passion.

These people are the first batch of students in the gym. They have been in contact with Taekwondo for less than half a year. But no matter how they practice, after standing next to them and looking at them for a few glances, Bai Ze had to admit that at least the Taoist uniforms on these young people were dressed in very neat spirits, which looked much better than the kind of martial arts in domestic martial arts, with a row of centipede buckles tied from top to bottom.

This alone can greatly attract young people today.

In addition, the walls around are written with brushes, and the ink is full of ink marks, such as "propriety, righteousness, integrity, shame", "self-restraint and patience" and "unyield and unyielding". When you are in it, the atmosphere of practicing martial arts is still very strong. The overall environment is really good.

And further up, the second floor is the martial arts performance venue for senior students in the gym. These people have passed the exam, and the lowest level is also the Black Belt section.

Taekwondo is a formal Olympic competitive event. In recent years, it has blossomed everywhere in China and has an unprecedented scale. Therefore, every officially registered gym will more or less participate in some domestic and foreign events, so these senior students who have already won the ranks are the storefront of the entire dojo.

The more experts you have, the more awards you win, the better the positive publicity will naturally be.

As soon as I went up to the second floor, the whole atmosphere suddenly changed. The second floor seemed much cleaner than the first floor. Although the place was similar, the facilities were better. The ground was covered with thick rubber floors, and the number of people was much smaller. Including the coach, there were only thirty or forty people.

On a recent venue, more than a dozen students with black belts were repeatedly practicing the "breaking" movement.

Compared with ordinary students on the first floor, these people seem more professional and heavy. Both men and women have serious expressions on their faces. They basically do not need too much guidance from the coach to conduct targeted practice based on their own level.

Moreover, these senior students have practiced here for at least five years, with standard movements and quick moves. They can often break the wooden boards and tiles with just one blow, especially the gorgeous legs, which can often arouse the praise and low voices of some onlookers.

Sun Lei and Zhou Jie are no exception. As soon as they entered the second floor, their faces immediately shone brightly, and their eyes looked at the sky as if they were not enough. They clapped and cheered from time to time.

Bai Ze was not idle at this time. Apart from disagreeing with the practicality of Taekwondo nowadays, he did not discriminate against this martial arts situation. Although it was reported from abroad, some shadows of Chinese boxing can still be seen in Taekwondo. At the beginning, on the Korean Peninsula, the so-called Taekwondo Association was originally called the Tang Shoudao Association.

However, these are all things that are irrelevant. Any martial arts fighting in the world must have been aimed at practical combat at the beginning. However, the times have developed to the present, and the needs of practical combat have been reduced to the lowest. Most people just use martial arts to meet the needs of fitness, and of course there are more and more scheming. This is all to cater to the market and has nothing to do with martial arts itself.

Just as Sun Lei said just now, the taekwondo technique is simple and direct, and it is very easy to learn. The action is artificially gorgeous and beautiful, and its attractiveness to young people is beyond doubt. If you want to learn the essence of any kung fu in Chinese martial arts, you will need more than ten years of hard work and devote yourself to it. In this fast-paced and diverse society and people's hearts are extremely impetuous, of course, few people are willing to kill and practice.

This is also a matter of no choice. It cannot be solved independently by relying on that person.

If you practice Taekwondo, at least your body will be flexible and your body will be better than anything else.

After looking around casually, Bai Ze's eyes suddenly shrank, and his eyes fell directly on the sandbag area on one side of the venue. There were five or six senior students standing there, surrounding a young girl with black edges in the Taoist uniform in the middle, as if she was a coach.

Judging from the meaning, it seems that I am guiding the students around me how to practice kicking on their legs.

"Eliya, you didn't do this right now. The hip joint was rotating slowly and the angle was not enough. If you kick it across, you should make the front side of your thigh and the chest and abdomen in a straight line, and send the hips out. Ilina, you have strong enough strength, but the elasticity of the ligaments is not enough. You usually have to work hard on this."

"The horizontal kick of Taekwondo is called side legs in Sanda, and in Muay Thai, it is called sweeping legs. Although the specific movements are different, they are generally similar. They only need to be performed according to each person's own conditions, and they can be used comfortably and kicked hard enough. Come on, you all retreat, and I'll demonstrate my own horizontal kick for you."

As he said that, the girl made a demonstration on the spot, first pushing the ground with her right foot forward, moving the center of gravity forward to her left foot, quickly bent her knees and lifted them up, putting her two fists in front of her chest, suddenly turning her hips, turning her left foot inward by 180 degrees, lifting her right knee joint forward to a horizontal state, and then kicking her calf out horizontally toward the front left.

He swept his feet hard on the extra-large silicone sandbag that was 1.7 meters high above the ground. With a snap, the sandbag flew backwards, then relaxed his calf and immediately took it back to the ground and became a practical posture. The whole movement was clean, beautiful, simple, direct, and done in one go.

"Hey, this kick is not just a Taekwondo horizontal kick! I didn't expect that I could meet someone who has practiced leg-slipping here." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
