"Jump! Jump! Jump! No stops! "The sand pile training ground was filled with the rude roar of leopards.
On the rows of sand piles, the teenagers squandered small sandbags with their legs tied, jumping up and down, and jumping quickly. Above the sand pile, vines with sharp thorns swayed back and forth, like swinging long arms, blocking everyone's way. They had to move fast and dodge the interference of the vines.
The leopard flicked its leather whip and stared at it violently. Every now and then, he would whip a few whips to train everyone's resilience. Some people barely avoided it, and some were knocked off sand piles, got up in pain, and ran all over again.
Every teenager is like a taut string, training to go all out, cherishing this hard-won opportunity. In human society, martial arts are precious resources and are controlled by aristocratic families and various forces. Even the price of a martial arts hall that teaches skills openly is frighteningly high, and ordinary civilians simply cannot afford to pay the expensive tuition.
"No. 1, Uncle Sue SΓΉ, what is an assassin?" The leopard asked suddenly.
"Assassins are tools for killing." Ge Ying replied as he leaped into the air before the vines could get close, landing on another sand stake.
The leopard sneered: "That's right, keep in mind that we are killing tools!" Only by not seeing themselves as human beings can the Assassins wield deadly power. No. 11, what do you see, it's you, how do you divide the level of cultivators? β
"Assassins ignore the level of cultivators. For an Assassin, a qiΔ rank is scum. On the first day of the training camp, you sued us, uncle. Saffron was busy answering, but accidentally tripped over her foot, swayed from side to side, and almost fell off the sand pile.
The corners of the leopard's mouth twitched: "Damn, is it what you said, uncle?" Also, when the uncle asks you about the level of a cultivator, he doesn't ask you how an assassin is! β
"Assassins are also cultivators."
"You idiot, why do you have to answer the wrong question every time! Pastime uncle? The leopard roared and whipped it up.
Saffron suddenly lowered her head, dodged a thorny vine that shook over, and replied quickly like a cannon: "The level of cultivators is divided into eight levels, from low to high, including black lead, gray tin, hematite, bronze, silver, gold, platinum, and diamond. There are also fierce beasts, weapons, and babies, which are also divided into black lead, gray tin, hematite, and bronze according to these eight levels??????
Cultivators' professions include martial knights, assassins, hunters, rangers, etc., while non-cultivator professions include alchemists, wandering artists, teachers, stonemasons, blacksmiths, farmers, fishermen, and charioteers??????
Uncle, I have a question, if a person is both a wandering artist and an assassin, then is he considered a cultivator or a non-cultivator? β
"Enough, idiot, shut up!" The leopard wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, the silver fox was right, No. 11 is indeed quite abnormal, how did this kind of miscellaneous fish get mixed into the team of the Blood Hell Society?
You're an idiot! If it's not to cheat in order to delay time, who wants to talk nonsense with a villain like you? Saffron secretly stuffed the cheat sheet into the sleeve tube, and it seemed that she had read it too much just now.
"No. 13, let's talk about martial arts and psychic skills!" The leopard set his eyes on Gordon, who was dexterously moving on the sand pile, and whipped it away.
Gordon did a volley, flashing the whip. Then he stood sideways, and the thorn vine swung behind him.
"The essence of martial arts is to continuously evolve the physical body through the cultivation of the source power, strengthen the Demon Life Tree, and use various move techniques so that the cultivator can defeat the strong with the weak."
However, due to the limitations of the physique, the growth of the source force will stagnate one day, and the evolution of the physical body will sooner or later face the limit. Breaking through the limit by force will only leave many dark wounds in the body, causing the Demon Tree to be damaged. Thus, psychics came into being. β
"The essence of psychic skills is to detour the power of the source and find another way. Psychic skills are cultivated at the spiritual level, and evolved, so as to break through the limits of the human body. No matter what level of cultivator, as long as the spiritual power is pure enough, they can refine the spiritual veins and evolve the martial arts into psychic skills. Gordon was still jumping as he spoke, and although he suppressed half of the degree, he still shook off the others by several meters.
"Psychic skills are born from martial arts, but they are more powerful and wonderful. Once a cultivator evolves a psychic technique, the Demon Tree will undergo subtle changes, and the physique will be comprehensively improved, and for cultivators of the same level, the strength of the source power will no longer be the only factor that determines the outcome of the victory. β
"The first step in the evolution of martial arts, the cultivator can visualize and open up the spiritual sea. The second step is to use the spiritual sea to condense a spiritual seed-spirit seed. In the third step, the guΓ² spirit seed enters the inner world and devours the anti-life. The last step is to refine the anti-life into its own spiritual veins. The martial arts used to use the spiritual veins have various anti-life miracle effects, and they have become psychic skills. β
Gordon sometimes crouched, sometimes leaped, and once he didn't jump steadily, his limbs would rise and fall like breathing, adjusting his balance in an instant. He took the lead in jumping a hundred rounds of sand piles, without resting, and then turned back to continue practicing.
"Boss, the 13th is very showy today!" The onion-headed boy looked at Gordon and leaned over to whisper to Ge Ying.
"Then we'll make a fool of him." A glimmer of light flashed in Ge Ying's eyes.
The short ugly boy in front shouted: "It's just to run away quickly, there's a fart!" The day before yesterday strength training, this waste couldn't even lift a fifty-pound barbell. As he spoke, he was suddenly swept in the shoulder by the thorny vine, and he screamed in pain and fell off the stake.
"Number 13 is right. Whether it is martial arts or psychic skills, they are ultimately for the purpose of evolving the physical body. The leopard grimaced and withdrew his gaze from Gordon. No. 13 is a natural assassin embryo, although his strength is poor, but he cultivates hard, has a high level of understanding, and his sense of coordination and balance in his limbs is even more first-class. It's a pity that this group of newcomers is unlucky, just in time for the Blood Prison to conduct a top-secret experiment.
These people can only be reduced to test subjects. Once the experiment fails, they will become completely insane; If they succeed, who knows what will become of them?
"To condense the spirit seed, not only must you be born with pure spiritual power, but you also have to rely on the secret method of visualization. That kind of secret method is treasured by the top magnates in various domains, do you have a chance to get your hands on it when you pee and take care of yourself? The leopard grinned and looked around at everyone, "What, they have all become good babies who accept their fate?" Don't you feel unwilling? β
After a moment, a strange smile appeared on the leopard's face: "There will be a special ritual in the Blood Prison, which can also allow you to break the limits of your physical body and have a power similar to that of psychic skills. β
Hearing the leopard's words, everyone stopped their movements and shook for a moment. Immediately, a wave of cheers was set off on the training ground.
The teenagers had never expected to have psychic powers. Whether it is in the bustling capital or in the poor countryside, psychic skills are rumored to be miraculous and unpredictable. Anyone who has evolved a psychic technique has power, wealth, and status at his fingertips.
We're going to become human beings! The teenagers were in a state of great excitement. Looking at the cheering figures around him, Gordon's heart couldn't help but sink, and he had a bad premonition.
If only one ritual could break through the limits of the physical body, then the Blood Hell would have taken control of the world long ago.
Can mercury be refined like gold? Gordon had read about a famous experiment in alchemy, in which a piece of mercury that had been forcibly smelted into gold was cracked and shattered a few months later.
If you insist on practicing the power of psychic skills, the price you pay will be unimaginable.
In the next training, Gordon was always worried about this, so that his movements were deformed and he was whipped by the leopard. He immediately woke up and forced himself to devote himself to training. For the Assassins, anxiety was a negative emotion that had to be abandoned, as it was useless.
Subsequently, the teenagers were trained to walk rope bridges, climb long poles, climb over walls and cross barbed wire. By the time they reached the final training ground, Gordon's mood had completely calmed down.
This place is a fighting sparring arena, which is built into three passages: the first passage has many dolls sewn from sandbags, the second is made of hardwood, and the other is made of iron. All puppets are life-size and life-size, controlled by the organs, and can perform all kinds of martial arts moves.
"The heart is like a stone, and the silence is like a stone. As an Assassin, always keep a calm heart! Before killing, when killing, and after killing, you must be calm, and you must not be swayed by love. "The leopard patrolled the room, and every now and then the whip fell on the teenagers to correct their wrong posture.
Everyone was sweating, using various techniques of bird plundering, and fighting hard with the sandbag puppets, and the banging sound was endless. And every few minutes, colorful bubble balls will erupt from the holes in the walls on both sides of the passage, raining down on all sides, training everyone in dodging skills.
"The body is like fire, and the movement is like fire. Once the assassination began, it was as swift and furious as fire, leaving the Assassin with only a few seconds. With a single punch, the leopard knocked a sandbag puppet up, scattering sand grains in all directions.
Gordon fought with the puppeteer, his strength was obviously insufficient, and he hit the sandbag puppet without moving. Ge Ying saw it from a distance, and there was another sneer in his heart, and the last trace of jealousy for Gordon disappeared.
He knocked out three or four puppets in a row, slowly approaching Gordon. "Listen to the bunny, your good days are over!" Ge Ying lunged out like a demonstrative, slamming down on the sandbag puppets beside Gordon. The punches were everywhere, and the puppets were beaten back and forth, and fist marks were sunken out on their bodies.
Gordon glanced at Ge Ying and ignored him. If he sprains his muscles, he can kill the other party with a single blow. What's more, this set of bird raids, Ge Ying blindly seeks ruthlessness, but loses the essence of weirdness and agility.
Ge Ying thought that Gordon was afraid, and became more and more presumptuous: "Little rabbit, don't you dare to fight hard?" Why don't you even dare to let out a fart? β
Gordon snorted lightly: "You dare, then you can fart and try." β
Ge Ying pushed the puppet away, faced Gordon, and shouted, "Bastard, I'm going to tear your dog's mouth!" He glanced at the leopard in the distance, raised his fist, and was about to move.
"Puff puff!" The hole in the wall just moves, and the bubble balls shoot out one after another. Ge Ying didn't dodge, and with a flick of his arms, he swept a dozen or so bubble balls towards Gordon.
Gordon stepped back behind the puppet first, and the bubble ball "crackled" on the puppet.
"Cowardly bunny, will you just hide?" Ge Ying shouted and kicked the puppet over, and was about to rush towards Gordon.
"What, he's looking for trouble?" Atai rushed over with an arrow and stood in front of Gordon.
Ge Ying waved his hand disdainfully: "Barbarian, it's none of your business here, get out of the way." β
Atai did not back down: "If you want to fight, you will fight, if you don't fight, you will get out." β
At this moment, saffron, freckles, and Tricy rushed to hear the sound, and the onion-headed boy and several strong guys also gathered around Geying.
The two gangs stared at each other angrily.
