Lai River, under the surface of a shallow bay somewhere, a figure sits floating in the water, even though there are countless undercurrents in the water, the figure is as unmoved as a rock.

On the figure's knees lay a seven-foot-long sword, all vermilion, with a male bird inscribed on the sword.

"The river soup is still almost completely mastered, and the progress is good!" the man opened his eyes and smiled with satisfaction.

The man under the water was Suze, who he had chosen by chance to meet Eli and maintain his identity. Since solving the crisis of the Black Shark Gang half a month ago, Eli's "Extreme Speed Pulsation" has also stopped absorbing Eli's own Dou Qi with the support of Dou Jing with sufficient aura, and has begun to resume normal cultivation, and has regained the cultivation of the Seven Star Dou Master.

It's just that I don't know what Eli's purpose is, and he still looks sick and angry in front of outsiders.

And before Eli was cursed, he was a six-star Great Dou Master cultivator, a twenty-three-year-old Great Dou Master, a veritable genius, and a member of Norriji's first-class Dou Qi Academy. It's just a pity that the truth is unpredictable, Su Ze saw that Eli didn't want to mention the reason, so he didn't continue to ask, but only tried to help him recover his fighting spirit.

He made up his mind that as soon as Eli got rid of the curse of "Pulse of Speed", the character of the Penitent would disappear!

Soon there was the sound of a long sword breaking through the air on the water, Su Ze opened his eyes and took out a mask to put it on, changed into a magic robe, and slowly rose from the river!

Eli was not surprised by the teacher who suddenly appeared, he practiced the sword by himself, demonstrating his sword practice experience this week, plus the fighting spirit has recovered, so the whole set of swordsmanship is full of power, and it makes people feel chilled!

(Good swordsmanship, but unfortunately there is no sword intent, not into the stream!)

This is the third-level low-level fighting skill "Flowing Wind Whirlwind" learned by Eli's academy, the moves are sharp and violent, but it lacks the agility of the wind, and only gets a quick word!

"The moves are good, the power is okay, and your comprehension is not bad!" Su Ze touched the green stubble under the mask, and commented casually with his left arm and his right hand supporting his chin.

Eli didn't have a happy expression when he heard his teacher's praise, but his face collapsed and he was in a low mood - teachers always like to turn when they speak!

"It's much better than the set of "Leap Strike" you showed me last time, but it's still not in the stream!" After a brief comment, Su Ze finally labeled this set of swordsmanship - ordinary goods that do not enter the stream.

Eli's face was slightly red, he didn't expect that the fighting skills he thought he was good at were so unbearable in the eyes of his teacher, and he was deeply shocked!

Su Ze ignored what he was thinking, and continued: "I remember telling you last time that the fighting spirit of the fighters is too violent, and most of the fighting skills they create are fierce and fierce, focusing on attack!

Seeing Eli's puzzled expression, he remembered that the word "hun yuan" is a Taoist term for "mixed yuan", so he thought about it and changed his words, "It just doesn't mean smooth and harmonious enough!"

"It's not that your sword moves aren't smooth, it's that you're not smooth when you use your fighting skills! This kind of defect will cause disharmony in your qi and machine, and it will be easy to see the flaws when you play against the masters, and you will be defeated!"

"So the teacher meant that he wanted me to slow down my offensive and focus on my own defense, right? But wouldn't the power of this fighting skill drop a lot? What is the difference between this and scrapping?" Eli asked, what he can currently skillfully use is this set of third-level low-level "Flowing Wind Twist", whether it is fighting qi or mental power, it is enough to exert its full power, but he didn't expect to be criticized by the teacher for being incomplete.

"No!" Su Ze replied!

As for Eli calling him a "teacher", although he had already told Eli early on that there was no need to do so, the other party insisted that he couldn't help it.

He thought about it, thinking about how to make the other party understand his words. When his eyes touched the Lai River under his feet, his toes touched the surface of the water, and the water surface rippled in circles, and then quickly calmed down and was as smooth as a mirror! He pointed to the water surface and said: "Look at this water, it is not alarming on the surface, and when I step on it, I can only make it ripple slightly, and this ripple will disappear very quickly! You can't feel what kind of energy it will have when you stand on the shore."

But you also know that countless people drown in this river every year, and have you ever thought about why? Most people can water, how can they still drown?"

Eli knows that the truth of drowning in good water is the truth that people should not be complacent and be careful about capsizing. But when it comes to the teacher's previous actions and words, this is not what the penitant person meant. Beneath the calm waters, there's a huge amount of energy lurking?

"Is it because the undercurrent is too strong, and the water is pervasive, and it is difficult for people to borrow their strength, so they eventually die of exhaustion? The teacher said before that most of the fighting skills are fierce and violent, there are attacks and no defenses, and it is easy to suffer if they are not harmonious and smooth enough! So you want me to learn the softness of water, and when I play the sword, I should also leave room to deal with emergencies, instead of collecting the sword halfway to deal with it in a hurry?"

He thought about it, raised his head and replied seriously!

Su Ze nodded, "Even if you don't hit it, it's not far away!" cough...... I mean, you're not entirely right, but you have some understanding. ”

(Recently, I've been addicted to pretending to be a master!)

"I'm talking about the kind of round and integrated state of the Lai River! When I tap the water, it is as if I have attacked it, but at the same time it has made a counterattack, but the force is so small that I can't feel it, and you will naturally not see its push, but only the slightest ripple after being stirred by me.

And the fact that so many people drown each year shows that the power of the river's undercurrent is extraordinarily great. But no matter if I attack it or tap it at random, as long as it doesn't exceed the tolerance range of this river, it will always be the same river, and it will not be affected!

In the same way, as long as there is a "river" in a set of swordsmanship, or domination, then whether a stone falls or someone falls into the water, the river will still be this river after the incident! If you use the sword technique, under the envoy of some kind of sword intent, the whole set of sword techniques is like a river, unbreakable, no matter what kind of attack you face the opponent, you can deal with it freely!

And fighters seldom pursue this kind of harmony, what you seek is to be extremely powerful, in order to kill the enemy with one blow! This practice has obvious hidden dangers, because as long as the enemy sees through the flaws under your attack or withstands the attack, then you will be in a passive position next time! This kind of fighting skill that puts oneself in danger cannot hide its stupidity, even if it is extremely powerful. On the contrary, the magician did a good job!

Therefore, my warning is that fast, accurate, and ruthless swordsmanship is not necessarily a good swordsmanship, only a swordsmanship that can be retracted and released freely, fast and slow!"

Su Ze is still thinking about whether to teach him the sword technique of opening up the wasteland, think about it or forget it, even he hasn't understood it yet, let's wait for him to recover the cultivation of the Great Dou Master, and it will be good as a farewell gift at that time!

Looking at Eli thoughtfully, Su Ze didn't say anything more, turned around and left!

When Eli regained his mind, he realized that his teacher had long since disappeared, and he looked at Su Ze with admiration at the place where he was standing, and muttered, "It's really powerful!"

......

As soon as he returned to the academy, Su Ze saw a slightly depressed Eric, he touched his nose and said, "Long time no see, Eric! Yes, it's already 670 points! It seems that another year will be enough for you to be promoted to a fourth-level magician! Congratulations!"

Eric said perfunctorily, his eyes were full of sourness! Seeing that Su Ze was flustered, he hurriedly said: "Oh, is there something wrong with Mentor Alison, let's hurry up, don't delay!"

Allison moved out of the mage tower after her promotion, and her magic hut was instead in a woodland near the Earth Mage Tower. The two chatted all the way, and Eric said that he didn't know what his teacher meant, saying that he just received a message from the crystal card and asked him to bring Su Ze over!

Eric was very sad when he said this, he always felt that this guy was Alison's disciple, and he was just a miscellaneous subordinate. Su Ze tasted his sourness, and quickly changed the topic to talk about the arrangements after Eric's promotion to the fourth level, if he was full of calculations, Eric also had more than twenty years in the place where the bones were buried, and he naturally had a great future after entering Alison's door. I just don't know if Alison will keep Eric in Los Angeles or send it out, I heard that Alison's mentor's family is also quite powerful, will she be sent to her own family power to temper like Cathy was sent to Norrie to be Sidney's spokesperson in the family?

"I don't know, the teacher hasn't said it yet. However, the teacher also said that I am not very good at fighting people, so I still plan to arrange an idle position in Los Angeles to stay first, as long as I am promoted to a fifth-level magician within fifty years, and by the way, I can return to the academy if I complete a few magic spell optimization experiments to meet the teacher's requirements! To be honest, I also like this kind of life. ”

He looked at Su Ze, who had an envious face, tugged at the corners of his mouth and said disdainfully: "Hmph! What do a reckless man like you know! The subtlety of the spell runes! If I can improve the 'gravedigger' spell rune left by Master Yori, it can directly improve my level by a large amount!"

Su Ze laughed dryly and didn't say anything, a half-magician like him was simply looking for abuse when discussing magic theories with Eric! But—he had an idea, remembering the high-level spirit gathering spell that he couldn't use in his hand, and suddenly said excitedly: "Hey, brother! How far can you do it now! I mean, if you want to simplify a seventh-level magic spell, do you have any confidence, huh?"

Su Ze's eyes were burning, Eric didn't pay attention to his expression with sour in his heart, he looked at Lu Xiang and didn't think about it, and replied honestly: "It depends on how far you want to simplify, the core of magic power lies in runes, and the key to simplification is also in runes." At my current level, I can basically extract the third sequence, and then barely keep the two or three second and first sequence runes inside to reassemble. In other words, basically I can only simplify to the level of a third-level magic spell, and I can't do anything beyond that! But the spell side may be a little more complicated, after all, my ability is still limited!"

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Su Ze's sluggish expression, and he asked, "What's wrong, is there anything wrong?"

Su Ze shook his head violently, "No problem, no problem!"

(No problem, there are ghosts, what first and second sequences, what runes, how come I've never heard of them!Damn, I'm just asking if I can simplify it, what are you doing so much?)

Eric came back to his senses and suddenly laughed maliciously, Damn/Damn, I finally found your weakness!

So he said politely, looking at Su Ze with warm eyes, "You don't understand, do you?"

The corners of Eric's mouth couldn't help but rise, and he took Su Ze's hand and said enthusiastically, "It's okay if you don't understand, come, I'll give you a brief introduction to the nine sequences of the core runes of magic spells, from first-level magic to ninth-level magic, increasing one by one." This is Teacher Allison's private goods, if you change it from the academy, it can almost bankrupt a sixth-level magician! You see, how good I am to you!"

Eric was finally able to completely crush Su Ze in a certain aspect, so naturally he refused to give up this opportunity to chatter at him! Even his pace was much slower, and it seemed that he was not so urgent about rushing to see the teacher!
