PopularNovelNanako frowned and said, "Mr. Wade, please clarify your statement!" Charlie uttered, "First of all, if you walk on the path of the world of martial arts, you should first cultivate your mind, your body, and then the arts." 6 "In other words, the importance of the mind in pursuing this journey is greater than the physical strength and the type of martial arts." 3 "It doesn't matter whether you practice combat, kickboxing, karate, taekwondo, Wing Chun, or Tai Chi. This is not important. What matters is your heart!" 5 Nanako asked, puzzled, "My heart? What's wrong with my heart?" 3 Charlie snorted and chided in a condescending tone, "Your heart is full of petty benevolence. It is filled with artifice; it is narrow-minded; it does not admit defeat; most importantly, it lacks wolfishness!" "Wolfish?!" Nanako's face twisted into a tightened grimace as she exclaimed, "What do you mean? What is wolfishness?" Charlie uttered, "The so-called wolfishness is a wolf nature. It describes the toughness and ruthlessness likened to a wolf. When the hunters capture a wolf from a pack of wolves, the wolves will only try to save their companion from the capture, but they will not try to beg the hunter to spare its life!" 3 "When another wolf is wounded, the wolf will not lie beside its injured mate and whimper, instead, it will show its fangs to avenge its mate. It would keep fighting if it could; but if it couldn't, it would lay low and wait for the right moment to strike again!" "Nevertheless, an alpha wolf would never, under any circumstances, wag its tail in the presence of an enemy and beg for mercy! If it's just a husky, it won't be a match for a wolf even if it's bigger and stronger than the wolf!" "Which is why you are not a qualified martial artist!" i Nanako questioned angrily, "What makes you think I'm not qualified?!" 4 Charlie said in a cold voice, "Three simple reasons!" "Number one! You lack the generous bearing to admit defeat!" "Your mentor made a fair bet with me, and we bore the consequences ourselves regardless of whoever won or lost. Even your mentor was willing to accept his defeat and honor the consequences of our bet, but you, as his disciple, could not accept it and even call the way here to beg me. Letask you something. If you were in your mentor's shoes and lost the bet, would you also act shamelessly and refuse to admit defeat?" Nanako's face was as red as a cherry tomato as she was reprimanded by Charlie. She fidgeted awkwardly, not knowing what to do. i Charlie continued, "Number two! As a martial artist, you are very strong and tenacious, but you are also very soft and weak on the inside! This proves that you don't have what it takes to be a martial artist! A warrior is a wolf who dares to fight and is not afraid to die, but in my eyes, you are nothing but a pitiful poodle beneath the tough physique and sharp wolflike fangs!" 6 Tears flowed down Nanako's face upon hearing this.
Yet, Charlie went on.
"Number three! Warriors are soldiers who are not afraid to walk to their death! When they go to the battlefield, they are prepared to shed their blood and sacrifice their lives, but they never jeopardize their dignity! What about you? How dare you cto stoop so low and beg for my mercy! Do you also kneel before your enemy and beg for mercy on a real battlefield? Do you beg them to spare your life and let you go?" 7
"A warrior who would kneel before the enemy and beg for mercy ism never considered a qualified warrior! sb, have I wronged you by saying you're not a qualified martial artist?!" 1
"What you're doing now is tarnishing the word ' martial artist'! Therefore, I advise you to stop practicing martial arts because you don't deserve to be O one!"Deep down inside, you have the tender benevolence of a woman. Go back and marry a good man. Be a good wife, mother, and woman. I'm sure you will do better in these roles than as a martial artist!" 6 Nanako was extremely devastated after being reprimanded so bluntly by Charlie, and she abruptly cried out loud.
