Chapter 10 Mentor's Guidance On the training ground, Xiao Yun and Xu Ning stood at one end and faced each other."I will suppress my fighting spirit to the same level as yours, and only use fighting skills below the Xuan level. If you can force me to use Xuan level fighting skills, then you win." Xu Ning took off his mentor robe, raised his arm, and the ring on his finger flashed. The robe in his hand disappeared, and was replaced by a long sword in his hand. The long sword was fiery red all over, and there were some strange fighting spirit inscriptions engraved on the surface of the blade, shining with a fiery red light. At the handle, there was a fiery red magic core embedded in the grip. Even though Xiao Yun was dozens of meters away from Xu Ning, he could still feel the rich energy contained in the long sword. Just by looking at the appearance of the long sword, you can tell that the long sword held by Xu Ning is a magic core weapon, and the energy contained in this magic core weapon is the same as its fighting spirit attribute. With the blessing of the two, Xu Ning's combat effectiveness may be increased by about 20% to 30%. "Teacher, if you want to kill me, just say so. I don't have a weapon yet, and you want to fight me with such a long sword." Xiao Yun twitched the corner of his mouth, smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Yes, then I'll give you one." Hearing Xiao Yun's words, Xu Ning took out a fine steel dagger from his storage ring. He flicked his finger lightly on the sword, and the dagger turned into a black shadow and shot towards Xiao Yun. Looking at the dagger flying towards him with a strong energy, Xiao Yun quickly wrapped his hands with Dou Qi to catch it. The Dou Qi and the energy offset each other, and he held the dagger steadily. Holding the short sword, Xiao Yun waved it around randomly. He had never learned swordsmanship, so he felt very uncomfortable using the sword. "Shall we begin?" Xu Ning thrust the long knife into the ground. The blue bricks on the ground were easily penetrated by it as if they were tofu. The fire energy contained in the knife even burned the blue bricks red.
"Well, I hope that the mentor can show mercy." Xiao Yun nodded, and a surging momentum surged from his body. The fighting spirit churned in his body, traveling through his meridians, and even a wave of fighting spirit appeared on his body surface, sweeping around. After covering his entire body, the fighting spirit did not dissipate, but continued to converge, and finally slowly stuck to the outside of Xiao Yun's robe, as if forming a defense. Douqi Gauze Clothes is the signature skill of a Dou Shi master and also the most practical skill. It has a significant effect on increasing one's defense, speed, attack, etc. The next second, Xiao Yun's figure flashed and turned into a red stream of light, suddenly rushing towards Xu Ning. Xiao Yun had never fought much before, so his combat experience was definitely not as good as Xu Ning's, so he could only strike first and see if he could force out Xu Ning's Xuan-level fighting skills. Facts have proved how naive Xiao Yun's idea was. Looking at Xiao Yun who was rushing towards him, Xu Ning had no intention of dodging. Instead, he swung his long sword and slashed quickly in front of him. Each sword strike contained fire-attributed fighting spirit, leaving a trail of fiery red marks in the air. In an instant, it was unclear how many times Xu Ning had slashed. All he saw was that in front of him, countless traces of the slashes formed a fire net and rushed straight towards Xiao Yun. Looking at the fire net that completely covered him, Xiao Yun, who was originally running wildly, couldn't stop even if he wanted to. He could only bite the bullet and cover the short sword with his fighting spirit, hoping to break through it with a single point. "Ding!" The dagger collided with the fire net. Under the powerful force, the dagger was instantly shattered into pieces, and Xiao Yun was also blown away by the recoil force. Falling on the bluestone bricks, Xiao Yun felt his whole body aching, as if his internal organs were about to be shaken out. He quickly took out a pill from his ring, stuffed it into his mouth, sat up from the ground and adjusted his state. After a few minutes, under the effect of the pill, Xiao Yun's body quickly recovered. I opened my eyes and saw Xu Ning, who had been standing in the distance, had walked towards me with a helpless look on his face. "I said you are too weak. I just used one move and you fell down. And it was just a simple surge of blood and energy. It's not like you were seriously injured. You even took out pills to recover." Xu Ning's angry voice came. He really didn't expect that Xiao Yun's combat experience was so poor, just like a toddler. "Um, mentor, I've never had a fight with others before, so I'm not very familiar with combat." Xiao Yun scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and defended himself for being defeated in one second by Xu Ning just now. "Oh, forget it. With your talent and age, it's normal that you don't have enough combat experience. Today I will teach you how to fight." Xiao Yun nodded quickly, feeling very grateful to Xu Ning for taking the time to accompany him and make up for his shortcomings in combat. Soon, Xiao Yun's wailing sounds were heard on the training ground, as if he was enduring some great pain. ……
I don’t know how long it took, but the sky outside gradually darkened. After such a long period of one-sided beating, Xiao Yun, relying on his powerful soul power, although he did not immediately become a master in combat, he could at least exchange a few moves with Xu Ning. On the training ground, Xiao Yun stared at Xu Ning intently, his body trembling slightly. He now clearly realized the gap between a fighting master and a great fighting master. Moreover, Xu Ning's combat experience far exceeds his own. If he acts rashly, Xu Ning will quickly find his flaws and defeat him. Therefore, he could only concentrate on the slightest movements of every part of the opponent's body to determine the opponent's attack method. Xu Ning looked at Xiao Yun's cautious appearance, nodded with satisfaction, kicked his right leg back, and ran towards Xiao Yun while flashing back and forth. Immediately afterwards, Xu Ning swung a punch fiercely, and the violent fire-attributed fighting spirit attached to his fist, forming a ray of light that seemed real, and a huge fist mark blasted towards Xiao Yun. Looking at the fist rushing towards his face, Xiao Yun quickly lowered his body, and using the height difference between himself and Xu Ning, he performed a unique skill he had learned - the clown roll - on the ground, and avoided the fatal blow. Xiao Yun dodged the punch, but the punch was still powerful and hit a stone pillar behind him. Xiao Yun was shocked when he saw the broken stone pillar. If it hit him, he would be unable to get out of bed for half a month. "How dare you be distracted?" Xu Ning's voice came, and at the same time he leaned forward and punched Xiao Yun. Hearing Xu Ning's voice, Xiao Yun realized that he had made another fatal mistake. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and caught Xu Ning's fist with his palm in time. As their fists and palms collided, violent fighting spirit surged wildly, even forming a wave of air between the two of them, spreading in all directions. "Your reaction speed is good, but your strength is too low." Xu Ning grinned, and at the same time, the fighting spirit on his fist surged, and a stronger force shook Xiao Yun's palm away. He raised his right leg and kicked at Xiao Yun's waist like an iron whip. At the critical moment, Xiao Yun's fighting spirit gathered at his waist and abdomen, forming a fighting spirit gauze to defend against this kick. But the powerful force still kicked Xiao Yun more than ten meters away. Before landing, Xu Ning had already teleported close to Xiao Yun and hit Xiao Yun's chest with an elbow filled with fighting spirit. This time, Xiao Yun had no time to defend himself and was hit hard by Xu Ning. His body fell to the ground, he felt a burning pain in his chest, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Although Xu Ning did not use his full strength, Xiao Yun was also slightly injured by this blow. "Come again!" Getting up from the ground, Xiao Yun took a pill to recover from his injuries, suppressed the surging fighting spirit in his body, and with a flash of his body, he continued to fight with Xu Ning. Within a few breaths, the two men fought several times. Xiao Yun used all his soul perception to assist the fight between him and Xu Ning. The surging fighting spirit stirred up a large amount of dust around them. Even the bluestone bricks on the ground were affected by the fight between the two, and large irregular cracks appeared. "Heartbreaker Palm!" "Stone-splitting legs!" "Hit the heart!" With the help of soul power, Xiao Yun's movements could keep up with Xu Ning, and he madly displayed the yellow-level fighting skills he had mastered. In fact, he also knew the black-level fighting skills, but he was not so proficient in them. Moreover, he was only a small fighting master. If he used the black-level fighting skills, the fighting spirit in his body would be exhausted within a few moves. Xiao Yun used almost all the moves he knew, but the effect was minimal. He could clearly sense Xu Ning's satisfaction when he took the attack, and there was even a hint of mockery in Xu Ning's eyes. After using his fighting skills once again, Xiao Yun's body shook and he stepped back, no longer entangled with Xu Ning. "What? Did you realize that you were doing useless work?" Xu Ning said sarcastically, "The battle between strong men is never about who has more fighting skills, but about who has stronger fighting skills! If you use yellow-level fighting skills recklessly like you do, it will still be effective if your opponent's cultivation is lower than yours, but if your opponent's cultivation is the same as or even higher than yours, you are just wasting your fighting spirit." "Thank you for your advice, mentor." Xiao Yun suddenly understood what the mocking look in Xu Ning's eyes meant. "In that case, Master, let us decide the winner with one move!" "Okay, I want to see how many of Elder Fire's fighting skills you have mastered."
Xiao Yun took a deep breath, and the deep red fighting spirit suddenly gathered on his hands and then gushed out. The huge amount of red energy, like a volcanic eruption, continued to churn in the air. After a moment, it condensed into a giant flaming palm that was five or six meters in length. "Red Fire Palm!" In the field, a huge flaming palm swooped down towards Xu Ning, and the wind pressure generated made Xu Ning's clothes flutter. "Good boy, it seems that you have really learned some skills from Elder Huo." Xu Ning, who faced the giant flaming palm, was most aware of its power. A fighting skill of this power was at least at the intermediate level of the Profound Stage, and Xiao Yun was able to display it with the strength of a fighting master, which was enough to reflect his talent in learning fighting skills. "Flame Sword!" With a flip of his wrist, the magic core sword appeared in his hand. The fighting spirit was wrapped around the sword, and the strange patterns on it were lit up by the fighting spirit. Xu Ning swung a huge sword light towards the giant flaming palm. Bang! The giant palm hit the sword light and was easily cut in half by it. After all, the gap between a fighting master and a great fighting master was still a bit big. The collision of their power was like turbulent water hitting a reef. Even if it was mighty, it would be smashed into pieces and defeated. Seeing this, Xiao Yun laughed and said to Xu Ning, "Teacher, your move doesn't look like a yellow-level fighting skill. Does this count as my win?" "You indeed win." He had agreed to suppress his cultivation at the same level and not use Xuan-level fighting skills, but he still used his own signature skill as the last move, because if he had used other fighting skills, he would probably have been injured. "Thank you very much for showing mercy, Master." Xiao Yun understood that he only won in terms of fighting skills. He was far inferior to Xu Ning in combat techniques. If the two were fighting to the death, Xiao Yun would probably have been beaten to death by Xu Ning long ago. "Not bad. He is able to clearly recognize his own abilities and not become complacent because of a temporary victory." Xu Ning was very satisfied with Xiao Yun's humble attitude. He had seen too many geniuses who became arrogant and conceited because of a temporary victory and eventually brought about their own destruction. However, Xiao Yun was different. Although he was just a child, he was humble and calm, which did not belong to his age. "Remember, you won't become a strong person by just practicing hard. From ancient times to the present, there have been many fools who have power but don't know how to use it. Only by constantly fighting with others, and in the battle, can you gradually master your own power." Xu Ning said to Xiao Yun earnestly. Xiao Yun nodded, sensing the state of the fighting spirit in his body, and discovered that after fighting several rounds with Xu Ning, his fighting spirit had become more solid, and his understanding of fighting skills had also become deeper. "It seems that I still need to practice more with others in the future. Refining medicine alone cannot save the Douqi Continent." …… (End of this chapter)
