Chapter 480 - 336: Martial Arts Sparring Among Track and Field Athletes
This talent makes Wang Ye slightly startled, thinking to himself that as expected of a top-tier athlete, their understanding ability in learning anything is top-tier. Although others also learn quickly, they are far inferior to Su Bingtian.
In today’s scientific system, besides the known IQ and EQ, there is also a quantifiable standard called Physical Intelligence (体商). It primarily measures the quality of sports ability, mainly including body coordination, neural recruitment ability, and the ability to memorize movements, among others. The higher the physical intelligence, the higher the comprehension of sports movements.
Many people may often find in life that there are always some people who excel far more in leisure activities like crossing a river by stepping on stones, which require a certain degree of skill. When others are still struggling to take a step before retrieving stones, they have already figured out a very smooth movement and quickly "run" to the finish line.
Such people can usually jump higher and run faster in everyday life, even without professional training, and they might run faster than those athletes trained for years. This is the gift of Physical Intelligence.
People with low Physical Intelligence might study sprinting for several years and still cannot finish a hundred meters within twelve seconds because their body coordination is simply too poor. They often forget the previous technique when learning a new one, and their bodies can only clumsily and stiffly perform a movement.
The well-known test of drawing a circle with one hand and a square with the other is also an expression of Physical Intelligence.
People who can successfully complete such a test tend to have a good IQ performance as well. This is because, in many cases, Physical Intelligence and IQ can complement each other. People with high IQ tend also not to have low Physical Intelligence, and those with high Physical Intelligence generally have high IQs.
As the top athletes in sports, they are naturally among the highest in Physical Intelligence.
Their body coordination and ability to memorize movements are at the pinnacle of human levels,
and the movement level that ordinary people need to arduously learn for a whole year to achieve,
these athletes might reach in just one or two days,
those ordinary people who have not seen a genius might find it hard to imagine such a huge gap between people.
But the reality is indeed like this,
even when studying, many geniuses can memorize a semester’s content within a day.
After reaching this level of technical proficiency, every action Su Bingtian makes can almost always lead a large amount of Primordial Qi in his body to start running along specific meridians.
And each time the Primordial Qi sweeps past his Dantian and meridians, it subtly enhances his explosive power.
So much so that he himself seems not to notice that the power of his punches is becoming more and more terrifying.
With each move, he unconsciously uses the high-tier technique of Bouncing and Shaking Force, and the brief force exertion causes the surrounding air to vibrate fiercely each time.
The sound of exhaling through the nose, the cracking sound of meridians being stretched, the buzzing sound of blood flowing rapidly, all gradually form a sound resembling dragon roars and tiger growls,
Making the hearts of people around involuntarily pulled along, feeling some tremor, as if the heartbeat is not under their body control, but is led by Su Bingtian, if the vibration Su Bingtian emits becomes a bit more intense, their heart would speed up, and if the vibration stops or slows down, they would feel some breathing difficulty, and blood flow slows down.
This is the Great Success of Inner Power,
Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound.
Although this Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound thing sounds as if it has nothing to do with Tai Chi.
In reality, most Martial Arts Inner Power, when boiled down, is just about a little bit of the same stuff—absorbing Spiritual Qi, exhaling impure Qi.
The Hedong Lion’s Roar from wuxia novels is a very typical example of Inner Power. It can inhale a large amount of Spiritual Qi in a short time and then explosively expel a large amount of impure Qi from the body, causing significant damage to the eardrums and internal organs of those around.
It can be seen that Inner Power and sound are very closely related.
Sound can drive the progress of Inner Power, and Inner Power can also enhance the volume of sound.
If explained with today’s scientific level, the Breathing Technique is about exercising the diaphragm and other respiratory muscles through the flow of breath and throat vibrations, allowing for a higher oxygen intake for the same body size, muscles filled with more oxygen can metabolize to produce more formidable strength, and at the same time, making sound can briefly increase the secretion of adrenaline and male hormones, which is commonly referred to as shouting to boost courage.
For example, Hong Fist is a style that emphasizes the Breathing Technique a lot, with every move associated with a very loud breathing sound. With enough inhalation and exhalation, one can unleash stronger explosive power than before. Thus, in movies, you often see those practicing Hong Fist making sound with every strike, and the modern Military Boxing has also borrowed this traditional Breathing Technique, with training usually accompanied by shouting, which not only boosts morale but also forces Breathing Technique through external force.
There’s also the Daoist Six-Character Mantra, namely xu, he, hu, si, chui, and xi, capable of exercising various internal organs. Selecting a special time daily to cyclically train these six-character mantras can gradually improve the level of Inner Power.
For someone like Su Bingtian, whose Inner Power has reached Great Success, the sound produced is not just from the vocal cords, but the vibrations of the diaphragm, meridians, and internal organs can all produce very loud sounds, meaning every part of his body can provide power to the muscles.
Actually, the root cause of the tremor in these parts is the side effect driven by the flow of Primordial Qi, simply put, Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound is just an external manifestation of Breathing Technique rather than its fundamental role. The true power brought by the Breathing Technique comes from the Primordial Qi. However, the current level of scientific development cannot detect this thing, nor realize the existence of Primordial Qi, this thing is like the soul, a part of over ninety percent of the dark matter in the Cosmos.
