Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Maintain a Skeptical Attitude

The assistant squad leader had been following Wu Xiaoyu closely. He knew that Wu Xiaoyu was nervous about the pebbles and rocks scattered on the training ground. He rarely joked, “Squad Leader, Instructor Wu is looking for treasures!”

Wu Xiaoyu saw him teasing and immediately expressed his doubt, “Fan Squadron, why choose this barren mountain for the combat training ground?”

“Look… there are stones everywhere. If someone’s head hits them, they might get hurt!”

Fan Biao noticed Wu Xiaoyu kicking the pebbles around, his expression tense and dubious. He began to feel more fondness for him.

Although he wasn’t a soldier, Wu Xiaoyu always considered these soldiers’ welfare. He initially caused a stir with the Quartermaster over their poor diet.

Now, due to the stones scattered around the training ground, he felt uneasy and furrowed his brow in discontent, truly exemplifying someone who embraces and loves the military.

Fan Biao pointed to a distant warrior and shouted, “Liu Jun, are you afraid of these pebbles?”

The junior officer named Liu Jun sprinted to Fan Biao’s side, saluted, and said, “Report! Special operations team members are not afraid of stray bullets; how can we fear mere small stones!”

Wu Xiaoyu looked at the man’s determined eyes, unsure of what to say. As soldiers, fearlessness of hardship and death is honorable. But does the training ground really need to be this tough?

However, since it’s their squadron’s tradition and the warriors are used to it, as a temporary instructor, meddling excessively might be a nuisance.

Seeing Wu Xiaoyu fall silent, Fan Biao bypassed the topic and regrouped the troops, organizing them into two lines to practice fighting in pairs.

“Instructor Wu, watch their basic moves first and then point out deficiencies for specific training,” Fan Biao ordered and spoke to Wu Xiaoyu.

Wu Xiaoyu originally thought of Fan Biao as impulsive and competitive. Now hearing his suggestion, he greatly revised his opinion.

He was not merely an impulsive, rash squad leader but instead had some foresight and rich training experience.

Had Fan Biao not first had them practice, Wu Xiaoyu wouldn’t know how to train them.

Wu Xiaoyu nodded to Fan Biao and began to carefully observe the team members’ combat movements. Their punches and kicks, although fierce, were somewhat rigid.

More critically, they didn’t seem particularly precise in targeting the deadly spots on the human body, making it difficult to incapacitate the opponent instantly.

After the team had practiced for a while, Wu Xiaoyu walked up to Fan Biao, hesitated, and said, “I think I have seen enough. How about I explain to them?”

Fan Biao, who was among the top combat experts in the entire special operations team, had no defense against Wu Xiaoyu.

Hence, he was prepared to relinquish control in today’s combat training, allowing Wu Xiaoyu to take the lead.

“Alright! Team, assemble!” Fan Biao shouted loudly.

The team members, who were in mid-training, quickly retracted their punches and kicks and regrouped at the quickest pace.

Wu Xiaoyu stepped forward and sternly said, “Your punches and kicks are powerful and imposing, but you lack understanding of the human acupoints!”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was some noise in the ranks, “Acupoints? What the hell? We are not traditional doctors, why understand acupoints?”

“I seem to recall that the deadly spots on the human body we learned before relate to acupoints!”

“Really? I don’t remember that.”

Seeing the murmurs among the ranks, Fan Biao quickly glared and stood beside Wu Xiaoyu, angrily staring at them.

Seeing the squad leader with an angry Vajra expression, the warriors quickly stopped talking and fell silent.

Wu Xiaoyu noticed their confusion and skepticism about acupoints and smiled, “The human body has 409 acupoints, including 361 on the 14 meridians and 48 extraordinary points.”

“Among these, 108 acupoints react significantly to external force strikes or touches!”

“Of these 108 acupoints, 36 are major points. If struck, it could result in death or severe injury, or at the very least, cause unconsciousness. These are called death points by martial families through the ages!”

Including Fan Biao, upon hearing Wu Xiaoyu talk about the mysterious death points, everyone felt perplexed, thinking this sounded like something out of martial arts novels.

Death points? Could such things really exist? Wu Xiaoyu wasn’t joking, was he?

“Um… Instructor Wu, you said there are 36 death points on the human body? Getting hit in these spots could result in death?” Fan Biao questioned skeptically.

Several squad captains in the ranks saw that even the squad leader was doubtful, becoming even more skeptical, “There indeed are deadly spots, but they aren’t related to acupoints, right?”

“Many people get acupuncture when seeing traditional doctors; does that mean they would die from those needles?”

The assistant squad leader, usually meticulous and cautious, couldn’t help but step forward and whisper, “Wu… Instructor Wu, you aren’t joking, right?”

Seeing everyone’s doubt and dissatisfaction with his explanation of acupoint knowledge, Wu Xiaoyu felt somewhat helpless.

Traditional medicine has waned significantly, with many people viewing it as fraud, leading to the decline of traditional meridian science and limiting acupoint knowledge to martial arts novels.

Wu Xiaoyu hesitated before confessing, “To be honest, I am an old traditional doctor, particularly skilled in meridian science.”

“The acupoint knowledge I mentioned is a cultural treasure passed down by ancestors. Please don’t disregard it!”

Upon hearing this, the ranks burst into laughter. Even Fan Biao and the assistant squad leader standing beside Wu Xiaoyu struggled to suppress their smiles.

An old traditional doctor? Young man, you brag too much! Those posing as divine doctors at least have a head of grey hair.

You, a young fellow with no facial hair, dare to call yourself an old traditional doctor? You think we are all fools, don’t you?

The assistant squad leader turned around, rubbing his face hard to calm down, then said to Wu Xiaoyu:

“Instructor Wu, I know your Kung Fu is terrific; just directly guide them. No need to tell them about these ac… acupoints!”

Fan Biao suppressed his laughter further, “Wu Xiaoyu, be honest, are you afraid we might learn your secrets, so you’re using these to bluff us?”

The warriors, hearing Fan Squadron’s words, fell silent, starting to speculate.

Earlier, his brief demonstration in the kitchen aroused admiration, with many wanting to learn his mushroom sauce-making technique, which he firmly refused to share, citing a secret recipe.

His Kung Fu wouldn’t also be a secret, would it? If so, why did he agree to train us? He could have just refused!

We thought he was selfless and loved the military, but it seems he’s fooling us, wasting our emotions.

Seeing everyone look at him with doubt and resentment, Wu Xiaoyu felt somewhat timid. What’s happening?

Is skepticism about acupoint knowledge so intense? They’re treating me like a worldly society fraudster!
