Chapter Twenty-Five: Still Owed
Shang Jin closed his eyes and meditated in the shade of a tree. A faint white light surrounded his body, slowly rising into the air like steam. He flipped his right hand and swung it hard, and the three ice cubes were firmly inserted into the ground, emitting a trace of cold air outward. The puck hovering up and down in his left hand is ready to be thrown. It happened that Liu Shiyi was holding a scoop of water and walked towards Shang Jin, but unexpectedly, the ice hockey ball smashed at a rapid speed. He was startled and instinctively dodged sideways, only to find that the spiritual power ball was like an eye, following him closely. He jumped up and down in horror, panting and screaming:
"Childe save me!" Shang Jin opened his eyes when he heard this, and an ice ridge shot out, extremely fast and impartial, and came out through the center of the ice hockey.
With a "bang", ice slag splashed everywhere, and the ice edge hit a tree opposite, marking a deep mark. Shang Jin wiped the sweat from his forehead and ran over to help the frightened Liu Shiyi.
He scolded, "Didn't you stay away while I rested? Why are you still running here? Don't want to die? ”
Liu Shiyi glanced at Shang Jin aggrievedly, and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, I saw Gongzi practicing just to meditate, and Eleven thought it was safe...... Besides," he picked up the water ladle in his hand: "Eleven is just here to deliver water, how do you know... Oops! Shang Jin glared, twisted his face, and said with a wicked smile: "It's just 'just' meditating... Ah, Liu Shiyi, are you smart now, do you know that I will be punished for losing me openly, and I will lose it secretly? Hmph, don't think that this son can't hear it! You're saying I'm weak in disguise! He strode back to sit under the tree, and when Liu Shiyi saw that he had not punished him further, he cautiously moved over, and heard his son-in-law rubbing the black gold knife back and forth, muttering:
"Am I that inferior? Is there a ...... is there a " Liu Shiyi always listens to Shang Jin praising himself to the sky on weekdays, and all kinds of fanciful words are not repeated in one breath...... What's going on today? I still feel sorry for myself, something is wrong, something is wrong...... So he tentatively opened his mouth to comfort:
"That's... Childe, you're actually... That's good. Shang Jin looked up and looked at him silently. He swallowed his saliva and continued: "Look at you, your body and appearance, naturally you have nothing to say; Martial arts, too... One of the best; And..."He scratched his scalp, saw Shang Jin's eyes like a kitten, in urgent need of comfort, and said, "Also, you can find such a good lover as Miss Mu!" How can you be inferior? ”
When Shang Jin heard the word "Miss Mu", her eyes lit up, and she grinned very happily: "That's the truth...... The little fox is good everywhere, she will like me, which means that I am definitely not bad! Eleven, from childhood to adulthood, after so many years, you finally got it right once. ”
Liu Shiyi sighed in his heart: With his previous merry, who would have thought that the dignified businessman would have such an infatuated side...... If you praise him in the future, you must bring Miss Mu, maybe it will be more useful than praising him himself. Shang Jin didn't know the little abacus in his heart, and asked himself on the side: "I haven't seen the little fox for twelve days...... Can this be endured? No! As soon as he said Mu Ningjiu, Shang Jin's words couldn't stop like a surging river:
"No, no, I want to practice hard, and after rescuing my father, I will go to the Phantom Clan to find her! Eleven, from today onwards, this son will be doubly serious, really! The firmness and fighting spirit written in his eyes made Eleven, who wanted to joke with him, stunned: Is this still the same son who pursued enjoyment and was unwilling to contribute? Miss Mu is so far away from Gongzi, she can control him...... Tsk, it's not easy.
......
"Remember, when facing an enemy, the first thing is not to attack, but to find the opponent's weak point first. The physical attack of illusion is relatively weak among the four spells. Therefore, if two people with equal spiritual power go head-to-head, the attacks of the Ice Clan and the Fire Clan will often be slightly superior. Therefore, in order to avoid being at a disadvantage when attacking, you have to grasp the characteristics of the opponent and attack first. That way, the duel becomes a lot easier. Mu Ningjiu sat in the lotus with his eyes closed, and heard the voice of the Tiger King coming from the distant void.
"So how do you do that? First of all, the spirit weapon you already have, Lan, can blow different tunes according to the different holes, giving people different feelings, to confuse and paralyze the opponent. Observing the opponent's attire and demeanor to make a preliminary judgment on the person's personality is the most crucial step, but it is often not easy. When the opponent knows that he is a tactician, he will deliberately hide his personality, or he will deliberately disguise it and cause confusion. ”
Mu Ningjiu frowned: "Then if that's the case, what if the illusionist misjudged because of this?" ”
"If the illusionist chooses the wrong genre, he is likely to be attacked to death by the opponent within a few moves. Because the illusionist cannot move significantly when playing, his attack range is extremely limited. However, if the spiritual power reserve is strong and the illusionist is experienced in actual combat, there is still a fifty percent chance of winning. ”
"In this way, isn't it like guessing your life?" Mu Ningjiu frowned.
"Not really. Take the students of our Phantom Academy as an example, the spiritual power test is basically at the yellow level and above. There are also green, blue, and purple levels on it, but the Yellow Rank Illusionist can already accurately judge the character of an opponent with lower spiritual power than himself. And now, it is estimated that you should be in the green section, and with the help of the spirit weapon, if you are against an opponent in the upper green section and below, it is not surprising that you have a ninety percent chance of winning. ”
"Teacher, according to what you say, most of the students in the Phantom Clan Academy have the same color segment, so don't they have a chance of winning five or five points in a duel?" Mu Ningjiu asked curiously.
"That's right. It is because they need to strengthen their spiritual power reserves in their daily training, and at the same time, they can also help to ascend, which I will tell you later. He paused and continued: "But at present, there are one or two Qingduan masters in the academy, which is really rare. One of them, you may know, is also my apprentice, the companion of the little prince. ”
"Xiao Luo?!" She exclaimed, "I've only seen him once, but I didn't expect this kid to hide it deeply." ”
"He was very qualified when he first arrived, and he was really not afraid of hardship, and it was no accident that he was so accomplished at such a young age. Okay, now I'll teach you the technique of the Thousand Wisps. This is a common twist method when you are fighting against a magician who is higher than your own rank, and you can remember it when you initially judge that the opponent has no way. ”
"Okay." As soon as the words fell, a long scroll suddenly appeared in Mu Ningjiu's mind, slowly rolling, and the light blue spiritual power notes jumped in the middle. She watched and walked through her mind. When she opened her eyes, she heard the Tiger King say to her:
"Treat me as an opponent and give it a try."
Mu Ningjiu got up and looked at the Tiger King, who had already transformed into a human form, but she didn't gain anything substantial: in her eyes, he was like a blank piece of paper, without sorrow, joy, joy and worry, so that she couldn't extract any useful information.
Seeing the bow and crossbow set up in the hands of the person opposite, which was transformed into illusion, Mu Ningjiu was shocked in his heart, quickly summoned Lan, closed his eyes, and played according to his impression. The sound of Xun rises and falls, fast and slow, strong and weak, it seems that the tunes of different genres are mixed together, but they inexplicably seem to be extremely compatible, and people can't find a flaw. The sound blade flew out of the Xun and shot towards the Tiger King with great speed; Before he got close, a foot in front of him, a barrier suddenly appeared, and the sound blade quickly turned around and smashed towards Mu Ningjiu. Seeing this, she quickly threw Lan into the air, and the protective shield formed by the spiritual power in its body blocked most of the sound blades that flew quickly and then shattered, dozens of sound blades rushed straight towards Mu Ning's nine-faced door, she dodged the first few and then kept covering the protective net around her body, and quickly disappeared into the air after each sound blade touched. In the end, she still underestimated the power of this music.
A flash of light flashed in her eyes, she gritted her teeth, and jumped up with the help of spiritual power, and several sound blades flew past the soles of her feet. As soon as the spiritual power was broken, she fell back to the ground and conjured up the spiritual power cover as quickly as possible, but the spiritual power consumed too much in the early stage, and before the sound blade hit the surface, the spiritual power cover broke first. Mu Ningjiu's reaction was not in a hurry, and five or six sound blades quickly slashed across her arms and neck, and the red blood flowers instantly unfolded. She snorted and looked at the Tiger King.
"The actual combat reaction is not fast enough, the spiritual power reserve is not sufficient, and the song is not proficient, if you really fight the enemy now, you will have died a hundred times. Xiao Luo back then worked much harder than you. If you want to reach his rank, you have to do it. Mu Ningjiu pursed his lips when he heard the Tiger King's ruthless but direct evaluation, and the fist on his side clenched tightly. She originally thought that after removing the demons, the rest of the training would be a piece of cake. It's that she thinks too highly of herself, she doesn't work hard enough, and she is far from enough.
"You still have a lot to practice. That's all for today, I was scratched by the sound blade, and I endured some pain, but it was okay, go to Xiaoling and get some medicine to put it on. ”
"Yes, the student quits."
......
Xiao Luo was silent all the way, just followed Mu Changfeng closely to the cabin where he lived. He knew that this test had hit Mu Changfeng hard, so he asked softly, "Amu, you... Okay? Mu Changfeng heard Xiao Luo's voice and turned his head in astonishment. This kid didn't even notice it all the way after following him.
"Are you alright?" Mu Changfeng asked when he heard him. Now that he was in the mood, he just wanted to be quiet and alone, so he said in a light voice:
"Me? What can happen, isn't it just a test, and it's not that it hasn't been tested. Mu Changfeng was afraid that Xiao Luo would not believe it, and gave him an extremely bright smile.
It was something he had never seen before. Seeing this, Xiao Luo felt a wave of irritability in his heart for no reason, frowned, took two steps closer to him, and went up to punch him in the chest:
"Mu Changfeng, don't laugh! Ugly! Can it be normal? "Xiao Luo is polite and polite to people on weekdays, but when he saw Mu Changfeng like this today, he couldn't help it.
