Chapter 38: You Can’t Become Fat in One Breath

Ye Xuan's silence acknowledged Luo Feng's words.

Luo Feng imagined that when Ye Xuan was a child, he was a baby and was often snatched away for candy by different fierce kids.

Have you been bullied to the point where you don't dare to fight or compete?

Ye Xuan blinked. What was going on? Why was there so much more love and sympathy in Brother Feng's eyes when he looked at him?

Brother Feng must have misunderstood him. It's not what he thought.

He is not the weak Ye Xuan, he is the Ye Xuan who beat Guan Xi so hard that he screamed!

"Brother Feng, I..."

Ye Xuan wanted to say something but stopped himself and was hugged by Luo Feng.

"Kid, it's okay. Everyone in our team is very good, and opportunities will come in turns. There won't be any vicious competition from other teams, so don't worry about anyone bullying you."

Ye Xuan stretched out his hands, not knowing where to put them. Brother Feng's misunderstanding of him seemed to have deepened.

Luo Feng loosened his hand, stepped back a little, and took out a dark purple short blade from his pocket.

"It's a gift for you."

"No." Thinking of what Luo Feng said to him, Ye Xuan swallowed the word "no" and reached out to take it, "Thank you, Brother Feng."

"That's right." Luo Feng smiled, "That's progress."

Luo Feng continued, "When I first met the kids, I prepared all kinds of gifts, but I didn't expect that most of them were power-type esper. Most of them couldn't be given away, and are still in my room. I prepared this short blade for the space-type esper, but I thought I could never give it away again. I didn't expect you to join our team. This is fate."

Ye Xuan looked at the short blade carefully. It seemed inconspicuous, but the blade was sharp. The pattern on the handle was not complicated but very delicate. Brother Feng must have put a lot of thought into selecting it.

"I love so much."

Luo Feng laughed twice, "As long as you like it."

"Now, let me teach you how to use it."

"etc."

Ye Xuan looked at Luo Feng, his mouth moving.

"Just say whatever you want to say."

"I wonder why the base doesn't use more lethal weapons, like guns."

Luo Feng clapped his hands and gave Ye Xuan a thumbs up, "That's a good question."

He pressed the bracelet, and it reflected a shadow.

"Because the virus mutates very quickly, the zombies mutate to different degrees. Some zombies are very fast, some have high defense, and some zombies can change into other forms."

"Therefore, using a gun will not only make it more difficult to kill, but will also slow down the team."

Luo Feng closed the bracelet: "If the problem can be solved with guns, the base can just recruit soldiers directly, why bother recruiting people with special abilities."

Ye Xuan didn’t know that the zombies had mutated to this extent. In his understanding, zombies could only run around and attack people unconsciously.

"Well, I'll put it to good use."

Ye Xuan took out the short blade.

Luo Feng demonstrated to him how to use it. The short blade was used very smoothly in his hand, as if it were a part of his body.

"The short blade has a very obvious characteristic: it kills instantly with one blow. Its disadvantage is also very obvious: it must be used at close range, so the user is exposed to danger during use."

"So, you must act according to the situation and take action as soon as you get the chance."

Luo Feng held the knife handle with his backhand, and a streak of cold light flashed in the air. "When using this knife, the bluntest method is stabbing, and the method that best matches your ability is slashing. Flash in front of the zombie, use your arm to drive your wrist, and slash the zombie's neck with one strike."

"However, if you encounter a zombie with strong defense, it is best to use the stabbing method. Find the opponent's weak point, stab it hard, twist the wrist, and cut the nerves."

Ye Xuan listened carefully and imitated Luo Feng's movements with his hands.

Luo Feng threw the short blade back into Ye Xuan's arms.

"It's not enough to know the theory, you have to practice it. Come on, fight me."

Ye Xuan walked around Luo Feng, and Luo Feng stood there very calmly. Ye Xuan suddenly stabbed Luo Feng in the back, but Luo Feng did not move even though he was so close to him.

Afraid that he would really stab it, Ye Xuan retracted his strength.

It seemed like Luo Feng had eyes on his back. He suddenly reached out his hand, hooked Ye Xuan's waist, and threw Ye Xuan far away.

The force was so great that when it was about to hit the wall, Ye Xuan flashed in front of Luo Feng.

"Will you show mercy when you encounter zombies?" Luo Feng clenched his fist and rubbed his neck. "If I had punched you just now, you would have been lying on the floor. Be careful."

Ye Xuan stared at Luo Feng intently. He found the right opportunity to flash to Luo Feng's side, gripped the short blade tightly, and launched rapid continuous attacks.

But Luo Feng dodged every time, and when he attacked for the last time, he threw him against the wall again.

Ye Xuan flashed to a place not far from Luo Feng. Luo Feng was like an iron wall, invulnerable.

"There are two most taboo things on the battlefield: defending without attacking or attacking without defending. What you should train most is to be able to attack and defend at the same time, and switch between them freely."

"Come again."

Ye Xuan attacked again and again without giving up. After finding that his strategy was ineffective, he also followed Luo Feng's example and stood still, waiting for Luo Feng to make the first move.

As a result, once Luo Feng made a move, he couldn't find any chance to fight back and could only keep defending.

Finally, he was so tired that he sat on the ground and shouted surrender: "Enough, enough, I give up."

Luo Feng took a bottle of mineral water from the side and threw it to Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan opened it and drank half of the bottle directly.

Luo Feng squatted down beside him and said to him: "You have done very well on the first day of training. This kind of offensive and defensive awareness cannot be developed in one day."

Ye Xuan rested for a while and stood up again.

"Come again."

The two fought back and forth, but if you look closely you can see that Luo Feng was holding back, while Ye Xuan was struggling.

Even after the team members finished training at the central stadium, Ye Xuan still excitedly pulled Luo Feng and said that he wanted to continue training.

"Wow, I didn't realize Ye Xuan likes working so much."

"It's your first day at work, so it's normal to be excited. It will be fine after a few days."

"Brother Feng, Ye Xuan, we're leaving first. See you tomorrow."

Ye Xuan waved goodbye to his teammates and looked at Luo Feng expectantly. Luo Feng shuddered and even wrinkled his face. He shook his head hurriedly, "We've trained enough for today. It's already six o'clock. Let's train next time. You can't get fat in one breath."

Luo Feng moved towards the door little by little. After touching the door handle, he waved to Ye Xuan and said, "See you tomorrow."

After saying that, Luo Feng opened the door and ran away, looking back as he ran, afraid that Ye Xuan would catch up with him.

He has never seen such a studious student!

Ye Xuan sat down in the gym, stroking the dark purple short blade. After training for an afternoon, he seemed to have figured out some tricks and had planned to take this opportunity to get more familiar with the weapon.

But Brother Feng said that you can’t become fat by eating all at once, and there must be a point to what he said.

The door leading to the central venue opened and Xia Chenxi walked out. The ends of his hair were slightly wet, and it was obvious that he had been training very hard.

Xia Chenxi walked up to Ye Xuan and said, "I was so immersed in training that I forgot the time. I thought you left first."

Ye Xuan looked up at him, the afterglow of the setting sun shining on his face, "We said we would go back together, why would I leave first?"
