Other than the Keen Observation skill he possessed, Xiang Ning also had an ability to notice things that other people might not. Sometimes he saw things that even a tier seven sect master might miss. 

Most of the time, tier seven sect masters reacted after a beast acted, but it really depended on their opponent’s abilities. If their opponent was equal to them, their own observation skills would be weakened unless they were very familiar with their target. 

Other than students, many powerful fighters in the crowd grew interested. Xiang Ning's objective in talking about talent was to provide a reasonable explanation for his Keen Observation—or rather his insane capabilities. 

He raised his arms, looking like he was feeling the air above his head and the 3D model zoomed out several tens of times. He tapped with his finger again, selecting the first battle after his powers had come back. It was the time the beasts had surrounded him. 

“Although these beasts aren’t as good as me, as long as you understand one thing—and practice it in the virtual reality capsules—you’ll see considerable progress in real life.” He smiled. He had tried countless times in capsules over the past few days. “Let me ask you this... during a fight, which points of the human body does your strength originate from? Which are the most important ones?” 

Watching the footage of him fighting beasts, the adults wondered why he had asked about the human body. Weren’t they just talking about beasts? But it didn’t matter what the adults thought, the students were happy to be asked a question. “The arms and legs, I guess. You need to use them to beat someone up.” 

“I think it’s the muscles in the thighs and calves. If you want powerful attacks, you need muscles there.” 

“Hehe, you guys aren’t Qiling Academy students, right?”

“No, we are.” 

“You guys think I can’t tell just because we aren’t in school uniforms on a Saturday? I’ve personally witnessed Teacher Xiang Ning fight in real life, and it wasn’t recorded. If you don’t know this, you aren’t a student of Qiling Academy.” 

“Cough, cough. No, listen—”

“No, no. As long as you like him, we’re brothers. I’ll tell you. You wouldn’t expect it, but whenever humans use their strength, it involves the glutes too.” 

“Huh? I’d understand if you referred to the waist, but the glutes?” 

The same questions were asked everywhere, and some girls even blushed. 

Xiang Ning chuckled. Looking at the crowd, he realized he wasn’t so anxious anymore. “In reality, the way humans use their strength is somewhat similar to beasts. Please take a look at the projection.” 

He zoomed in on the moment the beast moved. 

“Doesn’t look any different to me.”

He slowed it down. 

“I think I see something.” 

He continued slowing down the recording and everyone was stunned. When the footage had been slowed by fifteen times, it was true that the glutes moved slightly faster than the rest of the body. Their reactions weren’t ‘I see’, but deep respect for him. He was a monster. 

Thousands of changes were constantly happening everywhere in battle, who could notice such minute details that could only be seen when slowed down by fifteen times? Xiang Ning was surrounded by a few beasts, too, not just one. It was no wonder he mentioned talent—that observational ability was an absolutely insane talent. 

Perhaps it was a gift he had from the heavens. 

They looked forward to the rest of the knowledge he would give them. 

“Once a human’s waist moves, that’s when he’s already using his strength. The direction this strength travels depends on his glutes.” That was most obvious in basketball and soccer. A player’s upper body could move to the left, but if his glutes were traveling to the right, the upper body would change to the right. “Alright, next, let’s dissect the beast’s source of strength and some of my observations in detail.…” The first beast video was of a more common hound-type beast. Xiang Ning analyzed it extremely clearly—if this muscle moved, that meant it was likely that it would do this next.… 

The teachers and students were extremely impressed. Although some masters had already taught this subject a long time ago, it was hard to execute in real life so not many people paid attention. But now, Xiang Ning had turned the theory into practice and explained it extremely clearly. Many students couldn’t wait to practice in virtual reality. 

Then he analyzed another two common beasts and was about to end the class when, under Qi Jiuming’s instructions, Su Muhan said, “Xiang Ning, there’s many students who hope to receive feedback from you.” 

He nodded. It was already in his script, but, looking at the time, it was almost lunch. While he was fine with it, he couldn’t keep them all there, right? But the students were more committed than he expected. So he picked two teams and a total of four people came onstage. 

The students were picked by the committee and had martial skills that Xiang Ning had already learned. Since he had achieved Peak Mastery in them, giving feedback wouldn’t be a problem. The audience lapped it up, and although they wouldn’t be cultivating the techniques themselves, they still learned a lot from the theory. 

“Teacher Xiang Ning, can you give me feedback on my ‘Dancing Peacock’?”

Xiang Ning scratched his head. “Uh… I don’t know that skill, though.” 

The student was disappointed, but instantly felt embarrassed when he saw the looks from the three other students and immediately apologized, “I’m sorry teacher, it was my mistake.” The student was panicking. Although it was normal to not know a technique, the awkwardness was unavoidable when a student asked a question their teachers didn’t know the answer to. 

Xiang Ning smiled. “It’s fine, I can learn it. Wait a moment.” 

Xiang Ning looked toward Qi Jiuming in the stands. “Headmaster, could you let me take a look at the ‘Dancing Peacock’? This student is asking me a question, but I don’t have it.”

Qi Jiuming’s mouth twitched. Just admit that you don’t know! Do you think you can teach others immediately after you look at the skill? 

The crowd murmured, and even Su Muhan was worried. Although the people of Marsh City loved Xiang Ning, he sounded very arrogant there. 

Qi Jiuming wanted to beat him up. How stupid was he?! But with so many people watching, what could he do? “Are you sure?” 

“Yes,” he replied. 

“Alright.” Qi Jiuming felt a headache coming on as he watched Xiang Ning’s blind arrogance. The brat was in for so much embarrassment.
