The Martial Unity

"But you're a Martial Squire." Rui frowned.

"I held back to match your physical power." He shrugged. "As long as you master it perfectly, the result shouldn't deviate much from this."

Rui was quite excited at the prospect of obtaining that kind of lethality, that he resumed the torture training immediately. This time, he even stopped screaming. Bearing the pain and putting his toe through utter hell with each kick.

A little over an hour passed, and he had just completed a thousand kicks!

He glanced at his toe, after he healed it for the tenth time. It didn't look any different at all. But, that obviously to be expected, if the process would be completed over the span of a million kicks, then there would be no visible progress over merely just a thousand kicks, which was 0.1% of the total progress.

The bone reconstruction process was a well-understood one. Bone had an incredible ability to adapt to mechanical loads or pressure we place upon it. According to Wolff's Law, a bone's internal framework, known as trabeculae is initially weakened when strained and micro-fractured by mechanical stress, thereby triggering a rebuilding process that eventually made the bone denser. The hard outer shell of the bone also became a little thicker with time. This was how bone could become stronger.

It was a long process that required prolonged period of just the right amount of stress and strain to the bones. It was not a process that could be sped up too much, even with healing potions.

Rui sighed, before proceeding to continue. He usually spent many hours on a single technique, and as painful as the Stinger technique was, he did not want to skip out on it.
