"True qi? What is that?" Jiang Chen asked, voicing his confusion.
"That... how do I explain this to you?" Dubu Yun rubbed his temples. He truly didn't know how to articulate what true qi was. After all, he had only ever heard of it; he had never taken that final step himself, and he was still a long way from it.
After a moment of thought, he said, "To put it simply, it is the energy born within the body—you could also call it internal force. Since ancient times, martial arts have been divided into internal and external schools. The external focuses on training fists and kicks, while the internal focuses on cultivating energy, or true qi."
