Jeremy Stones explained a series of professional terms, and in the end, I finally understood. Avalon traditional martial arts actually encompass both martial arts and guiding techniques. Martial arts are used for combat, employing the quickest and simplest methods to defeat enemies. On the other hand, guiding techniques are a form of self-exercise that enhances physical fitness and prolongs lifespan. It's similar to the Yi Jin Jing that I practice, as it strengthens muscles and bones, rejuvenates the body, and as the boxing scripture says, "One inch of bone extends one's life by ten years."
Practicing the Yi Jin Jing does not involve fighting; it only increases the strength of muscles and bones. However, once the muscles and bones become powerful, it becomes much easier to learn killing techniques. Guiding techniques and martial arts complement each other.
