Daily Evolution from Mastering Tai Chi-Chapter 190: Ten Days to Mastery

After the first real parachute training session.

Five more days passed.

During these days, he was nearly sleepless, crazily boosting his "Wind Manipulation" skill level at the base. Since he couldn't parachute from a plane, he conducted simulated training in the wind tunnel. Fortunately, simulated training in the wind tunnel also increasingly boosted his skill level, although much slower than actual parachuting. However, training an entire day could barely match the gains from one actual parachute jump.

Of course, the consequence of this relentless training was burning money incredibly fast.

The wind tunnel costs six thousand yuan per hour, and he needed at least five hours per day.

Plus, there's the cost for renting a fixed-wing aircraft and for actual parachuting.

Wang Ye was nearly burning up to fifty thousand yuan a day.

It's worth noting that an average person spends at most fifty thousand yuan to earn a basic A-level skydiving certification, and Wang Ye's way of spending fifty thousand yuan a day was extremely rare worldwide. If Wang Ye didn't have assets over ten million and didn't need to consider daily expenses and luxury purchases, he probably couldn't cope with this kind of money-burning pace.

The advantage, however, was that Wang Ye's "Wind Manipulation" skill level increased very quickly. After only five parachuting practices, his skydiving skills surpassed many professional skydivers with over 200 jumps. Rapid posture changes, fancy moves, and aerial spins were all mastered by him to near perfection. If an ordinary person with some talent trained to this extent, they would need to spend at least four to five hundred thousand yuan.

This illustrates how expensive skydiving is. Without a few "small targets" worth of assets, one might not dare to approach this sport. Only people like Wang Ye, who have no real concept of money, can spend so freely.

With this training frequency, Wang Ye's "Wind Manipulation" skill was finally upgraded to lv2.

Meanwhile.

The speed of Wang Ye's progress in parachuting also truly shocked Lü Jinyi.

If the extraordinary learning ability Wang Ye displayed in the first two days was something Lü Jinyi could just barely comprehend, then the speed of progress Wang Ye exhibited during the parachuting training in the following five days completely shattered his worldview.

Every time after real training, Wang Ye showed improvements that ordinary people couldn't achieve even with months of hard training. In just five short days of training, Wang Ye's skydiving level was already comparable to some of the base's parachuting instructors.

Day six.

On the fixed-wing aircraft.

While describing the key points of parachute deployment to Wang Ye, Lü Jinyi suddenly sighed.

"I guess these theories don't really apply to you anymore. At the pace of your progress, you'll start learning wingsuit flying in a few days."

"Wingsuit flying? But I haven't obtained a skydiving certification yet," Wang Ye said in surprise.

Lü Jinyi shook his head and said, "No problem; these aren't rigid rules. Based on your level, I can assess and specially permit you to participate in wingsuit flying training. Moreover, obtaining a skydiving certification shouldn't be a necessary requirement for you anymore."

According to the rules of this skydiving base, to learn wingsuit flying with an instructor, one theoretically needs over 200 high-altitude solo jumps and a B-level or higher skydiving certification. After developing a good sense of wind, one can register for the wingsuit flying course, don a flying squirrel suit, and train wingsuit flying postures in the wind tunnel as per the coach's instructions.

Wang Ye estimated that he would have to boost his Wind Manipulation skill to at least lv3 to begin the first wingsuit flying training, as controlling the flying squirrel suit is much more difficult than controlling the parachuting suit. It requires precise technique and a skilled sense of wind. Even when exiting the cabin, posture magnitude must be planned in milliseconds and millimeters, as a slight mistake can cause one to drift out of the designated area and encounter unknown dangers.

If high-altitude parachuting is akin to walking, wingsuit flying is akin to running.

Additionally, coaches capable of teaching wingsuit flying in the country are indeed very few.

Indeed, very few.

And Lü Jinyi is among them.

Day ten.

Wang Ye adjusted his skydiving equipment and suddenly jumped out of the cabin.

Swish!!!

He assumed a standard belly flying posture, gliding stably at high speed in the air.

Turbulent and dangerous airflow swiftly swept around him.

But it did not affect his gliding angle one bit.

With lv4 Wind Manipulation skill, he had the ability to control angles with subtle movements.

The wind was almost an extension of him, easily directed, or harnessed for movement.

In Wang Ye's eyes, the wind was no longer an invisible and untouchable thing, but an entity discernible through the Five Senses.

Usually, when you quickly master a skill, the world around you will undergo an almost revolutionary change. For example, after quickly learning anatomy, humans in your eyes become moving pieces of flesh with countless organs and bones. After quickly learning dance, your eyes become critical, paying special attention to everyone's posture and steps. After quickly learning music, sounds that used to be mundane can be deconstructed and reassembled into a melody.

But this sudden sensory change gradually fades with time.

When the skill mastery speed is slow, this change appears very subtle. So most ordinary people rarely experience this feeling of a suddenly transformed world in their lifetime.

However for Wang Ye, who possesses the Skill System, he constantly experiences these peculiar sensations. He can clearly perceive how the originally gray-toned world suddenly becomes colorful. Every moment, even every time he opens and closes his eyes, expands or clenches his fists, he absorbs countless pieces of information from the surroundings.

Not far away, Lü Jinyi, who had also jumped out of the cabin, couldn't help but curse as he saw Wang Ye's parachuting skills already rivaling his own.

"Damn it, doesn't he have any bottlenecks?!"

"Ten days, just taught him for ten days, and he's already flying nearly as well as I am...

I better quit the market; I've done enough jumping."
