Boku no Hero Academia Rebirth

20 Heavenly Jade Hand and Mysterious Perplexing Step

During the two day break from the UA Sports Festival, Tang Hao stayed at home to cultivate and train his Tang Sect Arts and quirk. In the morning, Tang Hao practiced perfecting his aim when throwing darts. During his training, Tang Dong went down the basement and imparted him some techniques.

"Hao er, since your cultivation is getting higher you will need some martial arts to have more options during battle. The first technique is called the Heavenly Jade hand technique, making your hands become extremely tough and tensile. It also allows to you obstruct poison and other harmful substances. The next one is called the Mysterious perplexing step, allowing one to travel at faster speeds as well as dodging by leaving afterimages and confusing the opponent." Tang Dong said

"Here are the scrolls, you can dispose of them after memorizing them as they are just copies." Tang Dong continued before leaving the basement

"A movement technique and a fighting technique, nice!" Tang Hao said as he grabbed the scrolls and slowly read them. After reading both scrolls three times, Tang Hao gathered lightning in his hand and disposed of the scrolls

"Hmm which technique should I practice first? My speed is greater than most pro's already and my combat strength is equal to my speed, though I do have more options in combat if I were to use my hidden weapons.." Tang Hao thought internally

After pondering for a few minutes, Tang Hao decided to practice the Heavenly Jade hand technique first. At the Basic Completion Stage of the Heavenly Jade hand technique, the user's hands become softer beginning to resemble a piece of jewelry making it tougher than metals. At the Minor Completion Stage, the user's hands become more tensile enabling the hands slightly and become resistant to poison and other substances to an extent

At the Perfection Stage of the Heavenly Jade hand technique, the hands become extremely tough and glows which resembles the color of Jade and becoming completely immune to poison and other substances. "Great! Once I reach the basic completion stage, I'll be able to personally customise my hidden weapons to suit me better, for now I'll need to rely on my family's blacksmith." Tang Hao thought as he practiced

After practicing the Heavenly Jade Hand for a couple hours, Tang Hao went upstairs to have lunch before going down to practice the Mysterious Perplexing Step. At the Basic Completion Stage, the user is able to move at greater speeds and begins to move in a way that confuses the opponent. At the Minor Completion Stage, the user is able to move at even greater speeds and begins to create afterimages as they move and at the Perfection Stage, the user creates afterimages with every step enabling them to cause opponents to be unable to tell where the user is

"To start practicing this, the user begins to take steps in a certain pattern creating a unique look with each and every step, with each step the user builds up speed and the movement pattern, becomes less clear which can confuse even the user at times.." Tang Hao thought as he begun to take the first steps

"Right foot one step, left foot half a step, right foot half step to the left, left foot one step to the left... Huff this is pretty tough, I'm beginning to feel fatigued even though I just started..." He continued

After practicing for a couple more hours, Tang Hao sat down crossed legged and recalled how he felt when practicing the two techniques and recovering his qi. After a while, Tang Hao begun some muscle training before stopping to train his quirk

"In my previous life, many users of lightning in anime were able to move at great speeds and also strengthening their attacks whilst looking badass and having a new hairdo... I should create a technique like that too, to begin with, I need to have greater precision in the amount of lightning I use so I don't toast myself.." Tang Hao thought

"If I could get a badass hairdo like K**lua from H**ter x H**ter when he uses his G*dspeed technique that would be great! How should I do this? Ah, I got it! I'll just do it the same way I do when I release my cultivation aura and control it to affect my body. It shouldn't be too bad in consumption of stamina and I could always make it stronger.. would my hair become longer too?" he continued

After pondering for a while, Tang Hao unleased lightning around his body and begun to control it. Bzz! Bzz! After a few seconds the lightning broke off, "Hmm.. it didn't last long though I did feel that my hair changed a bit, let's keep practicing," Tang Hao thought before continuing to train

After a couple more hours, Tang Hao went to up to the dining room for dinner. Seeing both his parents already seated, Tang Hao sat down across the table from his mother and ate. "Hao er, how's your training going?" Tang Dong asked

"It's going pretty smoothly, I'm getting the hang of it. After one or so I should be able to reach the Basic Completion stage in both techniques.. I'm also developing a new technique using my quirk right now." Tang Hao replied

"You made that much progress within a day?! Not only is your cultivation talent peerless but your comprehension is also equal!" Tang Dong said

Su Xue across the table asked "Hao er, It's your first-year but.. Do you want to come with me to China after your intern? To inherit my family's sword arts."

"To China? I don't think I need to go yet, I'll be fine for now maybe next year." Tang Hao replied as he picked up a piece of asparagus and popped it into his mouth

"Alright then, if you change your mind be sure to tell your mother." Su Xue replied before continuing her dinner

After dinner, Tang Hao continued to work on his new technique before going to his room and cultivate. The next morning, his training routine repeated itself, finally the start of a new week at UA begun
