Card Throwing, Success!

The card clearly hit the cucumber, and the corners of the paper easily cut into half of it, causing the entire rope to start shaking.

Success!

Su Yun watched this scene and slowly let out a shaky breath.

After five days, from not knowing anything about force execution techniques to being able to easily cut into a cucumber with a card, it was already unbelievable to others.

However, to Su Yun, all of this seemed to have happened naturally.

‘Still…’

It wasn’t enough!

Although the feeling just now made Su Yun clearly feel that he had become stronger, he had an intuition.

The power he could create was far more than that. He would become even stronger.

He seemed to be able to vaguely see a special path slowly opening in front of him.

He glanced at the livestream. Perhaps it was because the cards could really cut cucumbers, the number of viewers began to increase significantly. From the previous dozen or so viewers, there were now thirty viewers.

It wasn’t much, but it was a good start.

“Is the streamer pretending to be a newbie?”

“It was cut open just like that?”

“It’s boring. What’s so interesting about cutting cucumbers?”

“Let’s go, let’s go.”

The scattered comments clearly increased. Su Yun was not angry when he saw this. He smiled and said, “Everyone, I have a feeling. The power of the poker cards seems to be more than that. Give me some time. I want to see how sharp the poker cards are.”

“How sharp can it be?”

“Streamer, if you can cut cleanly through the cucumber, I’ll reward you.”

“The streamer is too arrogant. Does he still think he’s a martial arts master?”

“…”

Seeing the comments, Su Yun smiled faintly and did not explain.

“That’s all for today’s livestream. We’ll continue tomorrow.”

[You have closed the livestream. Livestream duration: 3 hours.]

[Number of viewers: 37]

…

Another five days passed, and it was already the tenth day.

Su Yun’s improvement in the past five days was not obvious. He seemed to have fallen into a bottleneck.

Now that his poker cards could easily cut open cucumbers, Su Yun casually took out a joker card and flicked it.

Swoosh!

The card spun crazily in the air and hit the center of the cucumber like a blade. The corners of the card easily cut into the cucumber. This was the power of technique.

“I don’t need to rely on the strength of my arms. Just the explosive power of my fingertips is enough for me to easily achieve the full-power attack from five days ago.”

Su Yun looked at the cards that flew out and fell into deep thought.

This seemed very impressive, but…

He took out another card, this time with all his strength.

Whoosh—!

The card shot out at an even more astonishing speed. This time, half of the card had almost completely sunk into the cucumber, but it was still unable to cut off the entire cucumber.

“Even if I use all my strength, I can only increase its power a little. This is too different from what I expected… What went wrong?”

Su Yun was stuck in a bottleneck, but he was not in a hurry.

That was because, as the number of times he used poker cards increased, he gradually felt that poker cards were already a piece of cake for him.

It was like an extended arm. It was as if the moment he picked up the poker card, he could sense how far the card could fly and how powerful it was.

“Maybe I’m too obsessed with the new cards.”

Su Yun threw out the last card and looked at the poker cards all over the ground. He suddenly paused.

For the past few days, he had adhered to the principle of using the new and not the old. After using a deck of cards, he would not use it a second time because the used cards would soften and their power would be greatly reduced.

However, Su Yun had neglected one point. Although the stronger new cards were powerful enough and could fly better trajectories, he was no longer the newbie from ten days ago. If he kept insisting on the new cards, he would not improve much.

Soft cards might be the new direction.

“It’s worth a try.”

At the thought of this, Su Yun gathered ten decks of cards.

“Everyone, starting tomorrow, I’ll come up with some new tricks.” After saying this to the livestream, Su Yun closed the livestream.

Su Yun looked at the number of viewers. There were already 60 viewers today. Although it was not enough compared to those serious streamers, Su Yun realized that he had ten more followers.

These were true fans. Even if it was not much, it was enough to make Su Yun happy.

After turning off the livestream, Su Yun took out an old card and examined it.

“It’s indeed much softer, but it’s not enough. It needs to be more soft to be more challenging.”

Su Yun muttered and bent the decks of cards back and forth for a while until there were obvious white marks on the paper. The decks of cards had completely softened.

Done!

On the eleventh day.

Su Yun held the soft card and tried to perform a card throw. However, just as he had expected, the entire soft card’s trajectory in the air was uncertain and it was difficult to hit the target.

However, Su Yun was no longer the newbie from the beginning. He quickly adapted.

Compared to using hard cards, soft cards tested one’s skills more!

It was very difficult for such cards to fly. One could feel obvious resistance when throwing them out. This was because the flat surface of the soft cards was no longer flat, and the air could not flow smoothly.

He needed to find the only support point in the limp card. He needed to use his fingers, wrists, and arms as precise crossbows. If he was careless, the flight of the soft card would fail.

In order to avoid such a situation, Su Yun needed to use his wrist to forcefully straighten the soft card the moment it flew to achieve the goal of letting the soft card fly quickly.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! In the air, it was unknown how many card throws had failed, but there were also a few successes.

After the 54th card, he could easily cut the cucumber with a soft card.

When he went offline, the number of people in the livestream decreased to only 50.

On the fifteenth day.

Su Yun’s soft card had gradually become sharp, just like when he used a hard card. Even such a soft card could gradually cut into the cucumber.

Compared to before, his control over all the muscles in his body had become more obvious. It was a special feeling. Su Yun could feel that he had precise control over the muscles in his entire arm when he was card throwing. He could easily control his hands. From every bone to every muscle, everything seemed to have become effortless.

On the twentieth day…

th day…

The thirtieth day!

At this moment, the livestream room was filled with 100 people.

Su Yun had already lost count of how many times he had thrown the cards. He was even a little numb.

The cards became more fragile after each flight and were retrieved by Su Yun again and again. In the past fifteen days, he had not changed the cards once. The difficulty had more than doubled.

However, what exactly was missing?

“What’s the difference?”

Su Yun watched as the soft card easily cut open the cucumber, but he was not happy at all.

To be honest, if he used the hard card now, it would be easy for him to cut the entire cucumber.

However, Su Yun did not do so.

Because he had a premonition that he might break through!

It was a mysterious feeling.

“It’s almost impossible for the power of the poker cards to break through the limit just by relying on the strength of my arm. But… why do I have a strange feeling?”

Su Yun stood rooted to the ground. He held an old card in his hand that was wrinkled and pale. He tried to mobilize the muscles in his arm to throw it out.

Swoosh!

As his wrist trembled, the card flew out like an arrow and struck the cucumber.

The entire rope was on the verge of collapse.

“No, that’s not it!”

At this moment, Su Yun suddenly understood.

Thirty days of training, thirty days of thinking, and who knew how many cards thrown.

Day after day, the incomparably boring training gradually made Su Yun enter a special state.

He could feel that all the pores in his body were breathing. His limbs, his waist, from his muscles to his meridians, and then to his cells… The power in every part of his body seemed to be connected, forming a unique whole.

What did it feel like?

Su Yun could not explain and was not sure either. He could only vaguely sense that this feeling was very strange and could only be chanced upon by luck.

He subconsciously took out the last poker card. It was older and more damaged than the last one. The surface of the card was already tattered.

However, he did not hesitate at all. All the power in his body suddenly gathered at this moment.

A faint sense of Qi crept up from the soles of his feet, along his waist, and then to his arms. Finally, all the strength in his body suddenly surged at this moment and was transmitted from his fingers to the small card.

Su Yun threw the card out. Like a stream of light, it instantly cut open the remaining half of the cucumber. Then—

THUD!

The wooden stake made a muffled sound.

Everyone in the livestream saw the card that was deeply embedded in the wooden stake.
