Chapter 048 Chapter 48

Xia Meng always felt that Wang Xiangyi was always terribly irritable whenever he met a sentry.

He lacks the emotional stability that a psychology expert should have.

That’s fine, Xia Meng thought.

To some extent, it at least proves that the "restraint" he mentioned is really the restraint of the sentinel.

Rather than just empty talk.

Wang Xiangyi signaled Xia Meng to stand in the observation room at the back and watch the battle.

He first demonstrated to himself how to use his mental strength, physical strength and supernatural powers to compete with the sentinels who far surpassed him.

Wang Xiangyi took off his coat and threw it to Xia Meng.

He is over sixty years old, and his figure may not be as straight as that of young people, but his back is still straight.

Wang Xiangyi always has a graceful demeanor.

Other students in the school always say that Professor Wang Xiangyi must have been a male god when he was young.

Xia Meng felt that he was the same now.

If he hadn't grown a beard, she would have always thought he looked a bit like the immortal elders in the fairy tales, standing against the wind, with his white robes and beard fluttering in the wind.

Xia Meng once jokingly told this impression to Wang Xiangyi himself.

In the end, the master gave her face and said, "No, that's better. If you describe me like that, I will feel like Bodhi Patriarch."

Xia Meng: “…”

Is he the Bodhi Patriarch who told Sun Wukong, "Don't tell others that he is his master from now on"?

Xia Meng hugged Wang Xiangyi's coat and stood obediently in the observation room.

Wang Xiangyi pushed open the door between the observation room and the training room and walked in.

There is a one-way glass between the training room and the observation room, so people inside cannot see outside or hear any sound.

Wang Xiangyi pushed the door open, and the people inside realized that someone had arrived.

The man suddenly turned his head and stared at Wang Xiangyi with some vigilance.

Wang Xiangyi slowly adjusted the watch on his left wrist, his face calm as water.

He slowly said, "Dai Xiang, right?"

Dai Xiang took a half step back warily, a little timid, and said nothing.

Wang Xiangyi: "I believe someone has already told you this. Harassing and following a guide isn't new to you, is it? You've already been on the Black Tower's surveillance list. You know, if you're in a situation like this and go to trial, you won't be out for ten years. So, I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourself for your crime."

He spoke calmly, not worrying at all that the other party would refuse.

Wang Xiangyi: "Your task today is to serve as a sparring partner. Commonly known as getting beaten. As long as you successfully complete your task, the Black Tower will not press charges against you for attempting to attack the guide yesterday."

Of course, what he didn't say was that even if Dai Xiang wasn't put in jail, Heita would punish him for his unrepentant behavior.

Black Tower will put a monitoring anklet on his foot. From now on, whenever he gets within ten meters of any guide, the anklet will sound an alarm, send a prompt to Black Tower, and release a high-voltage current of tens of thousands of volts to attack him.

Even if an A-level Sentinel already possesses a highly powerful physique, he cannot resist this level of attack.

If one's physical condition is weaker, he might even die in one blow.

But...at least it's better than going to jail, right?

Wang Xiangyi said, "Do you understand? If you do, then we can start now."

Wang Xiangyi: "Now, attack me with all your strength."

Dai Xiang pursed his lips, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

He could feel that the old man in front of him was not a sentry, but probably just a guide who was powerless.

Just a guide.

You can't carry it on your shoulders or lift it with your hands, so why are you so arrogant?

After all, he is an A-level sentry of the psychic department. Isn’t the opponent taking him too lightly?

Dai Xiang said slowly: "You said so."

Wang Xiangyi said calmly: "Just go ahead."

Wang Xiangyi was only wearing a shirt under his coat.

It doesn't look like he's here to fight, but rather to give a lecture.

Upon hearing this, Dai Xiang no longer hesitated.

He released his mental power.

Dai Xiang's psychic ability is A-level and is called invisibility.

By covering the whole body with mental power, it can affect and confuse the opponent's visual senses, thus achieving the effect of invisibility.

Almost transparent mental power quickly covered Dai Xiang's body.

First the legs, then the body, and finally the head.

So Xia Meng just watched Dai Xiang disappear from her sight.

There was no sign of him anywhere in the entire room.

He is nowhere, and yet he could be everywhere.

Dai Xiang seemed to disappear into thin air.

Xia Meng subconsciously took a step forward, got close to the glass, and tried to see clearly what would happen in the next second.

How does Lao Wang plan to catch him?

By the way, what is Lao Wang’s special ability?

Xia Meng knew that Wang Xiangyi was an A-level guide.

And it is very strong, it is said that it can beat ten people alone.

But more information is unknown.

What is he going to do?

At this time, Wang Xiangyi's spiritual body - the red-bellied pheasant suddenly jumped out and flapped its wings.

The Golden Pheasant is known as the creature closest to the Phoenix.

The moment it spread its wings and took off, Xia Meng felt as if she saw the scene of a phoenix flapping its wings.

The red color, like flames, led by the golden crown, seemed like a blazing fire.

The next second, the phoenix let out a clear cry.

The clear chirping sound seemed to carry a sonic attack, sweeping in all directions in the air like three-dimensional water ripples.

It only took a few seconds to fill the entire space.

Under the scanning of sound waves, the transparent Dai Xiang had nowhere to hide.

Xia Meng saw that less than three meters in front of Wang Xiangyi, a human-shaped shadow suddenly fell to the ground and rolled around.

The lethality of this clear sound is so strong.

The other party was found in the blink of an eye.

The golden pheasant landed on the ground and chirped again while standing not far from Dai Xiang.

This time, Dai Xiang groaned in pain.

Wang Xiangyi walked forward and stepped on the chest of the transparent figure.

He lowered his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Is this all you are capable of? How disappointing."

This sentence is full of sarcasm.

Dai Xiang roared, grabbed Wang Xiangyi's leg and tried to fight back.

After all, he is an A-level sentinel, so his basic physical condition should not be underestimated.

He grasped Wang Xiangyi's ankle tightly with one hand and exerted force suddenly.

In the observation room, Xia Meng's heart suddenly rose to her throat.

Old Wang is already old, he should be careful not to get knocked over or get hurt!

However, Wang Xiangyi did not move at all.

His foot was still firmly on Dai Xiang's chest.

The spiritual power that enveloped Dai Xiang's body gradually dissipated, and Dai Xiang's ferocious and struggling figure was revealed.

It was at this time that Xia Meng saw that a red mark appeared on Dai Xiang's forehead, just above his eyebrows.

It's about the size of a thumb nail.

A red dot, like the cinnabar mark that was common in children's photos more than 20 years ago.

The cinnabar mark glowed red.

As the light grew brighter, Dai Xiang's grip on Wang Xiangyi's legs grew weaker, and his struggles became less and less intense.

Until his hands loosened weakly and fell to the ground.

Xia Meng was stunned.

At the same time, it also makes your blood boil.

This is also——

This is so amazing!

She thought she would see some thrilling fighting scene, but she didn't expect that Wang Xiangyi hardly used any moves, and just casually kicked his foot, and the outcome was decided in an instant.

It’s hard to imagine that he and the guy named Dai on the ground are both A-level.

The gap between this A-level and that A-level is too big.

One is in heaven and the other is in hell.

So, even if she is a B-level, she can kill an A-level opponent in a matter of minutes?

Wang Xiangyi retracted his foot.

A cold look swept over Dai Xiang.

Dai Xiang lay weakly on the ground, his chest* rising and falling with difficulty, as if someone was strangling his throat.

The mark on his forehead was as red as blood.

Wang Xiangyi: "Get up."

Dai Xiang's body shook, and then he turned over while gasping for breath, propping himself up with his arms and sitting up with difficulty.

His body was swaying and he looked like he couldn't even stand steadily.

Wang Xiangyi shook his head in disappointment.

I thought that as an A-level sentry, this guy could at least withstand a few more hits.

In this teaching game, he hasn't even started warming up.

Forget it, since he is so weak, let Xia Meng come in and practice.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiangyi turned his head and was about to make a gesture to Xia Meng in the observation room to signal her to come in.

He was just about to raise his hand when Xia Meng suddenly widened her eyes.

Behind Wang Xiangyi, Dai Xiang stood up shakily, trying to release his mental power again to launch a sneak attack on Wang Xiangyi.

Xia Meng subconsciously raised her hand and slapped the glass, shouting anxiously: "Master! Be careful!!"

However, the sound in the observation room could not be transmitted to the training room.

Wang Xiangyi didn't know what Xia Meng said.

But, this doesn't mean that he doesn't know what's happening behind him.

His figure was clearly reflected on the black one-way glass.

And the figure behind him.

Nothing can escape the eye.

Dai Xiang clenched his fist and was about to swing it towards Wang Xiangyi.

Wang Xiangyi didn't move.

He even raised the corners of his lips slightly.

It seemed that Dai Xiang's show of weakness just now was completely feigned to confuse him.

Yes, the psychic ability of invisibility can actually indirectly illustrate that his personality is the type that is very good at hiding, disguising, forbearing, and then looking for opportunities to fight back.

Dai Xiang threw a punch vigorously—

In an instant, an invisible wall seemed to suddenly appear between him and Wang Xiangyi.

The wall is colorless and invisible, and doesn't even look like a wall.

He punched the wall, and it was as if countless spider silks with a thousand pounds of elasticity instantly wrapped around his arm. The closer he got to Wang Xiangyi, the harder it was for his fist to advance.

In the end, Dai Xiang tried his best in this sneak attack, but his fist could only stay thirty centimeters behind Wang Xiangyi.

The wind from his fist couldn't even mess up a strand of Wang Xiangyi's hair.

The next second, Xia Meng pushed the door open.

She ran to Wang Xiangyi anxiously and glanced at the distance of about 30 centimeters between them.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Xiangyi tilted his head to look at her: "Why, don't you believe that your master can handle it?"

Xia Meng quickly flattered him: "Of course I have no doubts about your ability. I am not... coming to cheer you on from a close distance."

Wang Xiangyi snorted proudly, "You came in just in time. Did you see everything clearly just now?"

Xia Meng nodded, then shook her head: "I see it clearly, but you still need to explain the principle in detail."

Wang Xiangyi raised his hand and waved.

The person behind him was instantly thrown back five or six meters and fell to the ground with his back to the sky.

Wang Xiangyi cleared his throat and began to speak.

"My special ability is called 'Phoenix Cry'."

As the name suggests, it is also a spiritual ability.

The spiritual power is materialized as the clear cry of the phoenix. Wherever the sound waves pass, they cause mental paralysis to all creatures that fall into its attack range.

Whether it is a human, an animal, or a spiritual being.

It was unlucky for Dai Xiang to meet him.

Being invisible is useless in front of him.

Xia Meng asked: "What's that on his forehead...?"

Wang Xiangyi said: "It's a mark."

This was what he wanted to teach her today.

Fengming is just the introduction.

Wang Xiangyi’s real killer move is that mark.

When the phoenix cried, Wang Xiangyi's mental power turned into sound waves and entered Dai Xiang's body. While wandering in his body, it left a temporary mark on his mental power.

It's the red totem on his forehead.

The function of this temporary mark is somewhat different from the mark between sentry directions.

If the appearance of the engraving means that the spiritual power between the sentries is highly integrated and the combination is successful;

Then this temporary mark represents the guide's absolute control over the sentinel's mental power.

Just as Wang Xiangyi said before, it is like putting a dog leash around the sentry's neck.

Once the sentry uses his mental power, the leash will become tight.

It was like strangling his neck, cutting off the flow of mental energy in his body.

Unable to get close, unable to attack, and even unable to resist.

After Wang Xiangyi finished explaining, he glanced at Xia Meng.

This killer move is his original unique skill.

When he was still working in the Black Tower, countless people wanted to learn this move from him.

He had taught a few of the guides, but unfortunately, none of them could master it.

Either the mental power attributes do not match, or the mental power is not stable enough.

Spiritual guides are rare in themselves.

There are very few spiritual abilities that can achieve an effect similar to that of "Phoenix Cry".

Wang Xiangyi looked at Xia Meng.

A guide who can change the form of mental power at will.

Maybe she could do it.

No...it should be said that if there is only one person in this world who can learn it, it must be Xia Meng.

…

Wang Xiangyi broke down the basic principles of this unique skill and taught them.

Xia Meng is a smart student.

She didn't even need him to repeat any details; she almost understood it after just listening to it once.

In other words, the key is to use your own mental power to mark the other party's mental power.

This is a delicate job.

People who don't have enough mental stability can't do it.

It's like threading a needle.

Let your mental power flow through the opponent's body to the greatest extent possible and control the opponent's mental power.

After Wang Xiangyi finished speaking, he planned to throw his apprentice directly onto the battlefield.

"Almost, it's your turn to practice."

Xia Mengxin said this was too fast.

Fortunately, she was not stage-frightened. Wang Xiangyi said she could go on, which meant that he believed she could do it now.

Since Lao Wang believed it, why wouldn’t she not believe it?

For a moment, Xia Meng's confidence soared.

She rolled up her sleeves and said, "Okay, come on!"

Wang Xiangyi withdrew the mental power left on Dai Xiang.

After a few seconds, the red totem on Dai Xiang's forehead disappeared.

Wang Xiangyi did not return to the observation room, but stayed directly in the training room to watch closely, so that he could provide timely assistance in case of any accidents.

Xia Meng stretched her shoulders.

Lao Wang does have something.

It's not difficult for her to learn this craft.

The difficulty of the first step is that he has "Feng Ming" and she cannot follow his example.

After all, it's difficult to make Ergou's voice crow loudly like a chicken with such a small voice.

What kind of medium can have an effect similar to sound waves?

Once it appears, it is unavoidable?

Maybe... light?

Or the wind?

Xia Meng once transformed her mental power into sunshine and breeze.

She had done this before in Li Zhan's study.

Thinking of this, she tried it right away.

She twisted her wrist, relaxed, and hooked her finger at Dai Xiang: "Come on, let's finish this quickly."

Dai Xiang: “…”

He felt a little indignant and glared at the two men viciously.

You're using him as a punching bag, right?

Aren’t you afraid of capsizing in the ditch?

He remembered her mental attributes.

It's about metallization.

Yesterday he saw with his own eyes that she materialized her mental power into a pair of handcuffs.

——Since it is metalized, there is nothing to be afraid of.

His invisibility can perfectly dissolve the metalization ability.

So, Dai Xiang began to release his mental power without saying a word.

The transparent spiritual power began to wrap around him from the feet.

At this time, he saw Xia Meng really began to condense his mental power, and then formed the mental power into a round stick about ten centimeters long -

Dai Xiang almost wanted to laugh.

Is it because she doesn't have enough mental strength that she can only materialize such a small amount of metal?

What use is there for such a short iron rod?

Can't even protect himself.

Dai Xiang sneered and thought that he would repay the old woman double for the suffering he had just endured at her hands.

Although he had liked this little guide before, now he just wanted her to feel the same pain.

He's just a guide, but he wants to suppress the sentinels?

ridiculous.

As his thoughts raced, he had become completely invisible.

He was just about to approach her in a roundabout way, but before he could take a step, he saw the round stick in Xia Meng's hand suddenly emit a strong light -

What the hell? It’s a flashlight?

How can it still emit light?!?!?

For a moment, Dai Xiang was almost frightened by this sudden change.

Isn't her mental power metallic?

Why is there still light?

Why is there light???

Xia Meng pointed the flashlight at the place where Dai Xiang was standing before he disappeared.

Wherever the light passes, the invisibility effect is in jeopardy.

Dai Xiang retreated suddenly, trying to evacuate the area where the flashlight could illuminate.

Xia Meng shone the flashlight around and could still see Dai Xiang at first, but in a moment of carelessness, the flashlight lost its focus.

Xia Meng frowned.

It feels a bit like encountering a mosquito in the middle of summer.

I reached out my hand to slap it to death, but I didn't keep a close eye on it and it flew away.

Then not long after, it would pop up again and buzz in her ears, which was extremely annoying.

It seems that the flashlight's illumination range is still too small.

...However, creating a light source that could cover the entire area would consume too much of her mental energy.

The time she tried it before in Li Zhan's mental image, it directly drained most of her mental power.

Maybe... or another way?

Xia Meng thought about it.

If there is wind, there may be many blind spots.

It is not like light and sound waves, which can cover the entire field.

What else can be comparable to light and sound waves without consuming too much of her mental energy?

At a certain moment, she suddenly had an idea.

Lao Wang has sound waves, so she can have water waves!

The mental force was released onto the floor.

The next second, water gushed out from under Xia Meng's feet and spread all over the floor.

Behind her, Wang Xiangyi curled the corners of his lips in approval.

Within a few seconds, the water transformed from mental power covered the entire floor of the special training classroom.

There is not much water, only about five centimeters deep.

But, that's enough.

Xia Meng looked around and quickly locked onto a location where the water ripples were turbulent.

There, with the ripples of the water, you can clearly see the traces of two footprints.

I saw the two footprints in the water hurriedly take half a step back, trying to avoid the water on the ground.

However, his every move was precisely locked onto the water surface, and every movement was magnified by the waves.

Dai Xiang was once again exposed.

The spiritual power in the water climbed directly up along his feet.

The first step is done, and the second step is the mental invasion.

This is Xia Meng's strong point.

The mental power invaded with great force, wandering around all the way as if entering an empty space.

The process of controlling Dai Xiang's spirit was extremely fast.

The next second, Dai Xiang couldn't bear it anymore and fell to his knees. His knees hit the floor hard, creating two small splashes of water.

A light with a faint golden color began to shine on his forehead.

It's about the size of a fingernail.

This is probably the totem of Xia Meng's spiritual power.

She walked forward with some curiosity.

Just now she walked closer and took a closer look. Lao Wang's totem was a scarlet phoenix totem, which was exquisite, gorgeous and extremely beautiful.

Not sure what her own is.

Xia Meng took a few steps forward curiously.

Golden light slowly gathered on Dai Xiang's forehead.

Perhaps because it was the first time to condense the totem, the whole process was quite long.

Xia Meng watched with her own eyes as the totem took shape bit by bit.

First, there is a thin golden ring shape, and then a wave-like shape extends little by little around the ring.

Xia Meng squinted her eyes to identify it. It seemed to be a sun totem.

Then, in the middle of the circle, a pattern similar to the waning moon gradually became clear.

In the middle of the moon, a six-pointed star is dotted in the center.

Sun, moon, stars... ?

...I vaguely remember it, as if I had seen it somewhere.

Xia Meng blinked hesitantly.

like……

In a flash, the scene she dreamed of last night suddenly appeared before her eyes.

The man who was half-kneeling in front of her, tears in his eyes.

Under the white cloth, the totem is faintly visible on his left chest.

etc.

Is that her totem?

Why did her totem appear on that man's chest?

That person...couldn't he be her Seal Sentinel?

Xia Meng suddenly came back to her senses.

She didn't forget what she was doing at the moment.

Her opponent was still before her.

She shouldn't be distracted at this time.

She couldn't help but take another look at the totem on Dai Xiang's forehead, then quickly looked away.

Emma, ​​it’s so unlucky to have your totem appear on the forehead of this kind of person.

Dai Xiang was terrified.

He knelt on the ground, looking at Xia Meng as if she were a ghost.

Xia Meng turned around and quickly withdrew her mental power from Dai Xiang.

She rubbed the back of her neck, walked up to Wang Xiangyi with a smile, and said, "How is it, Master? Am I doing well?"

Wang Xiangyi curled his lips proudly: "It's okay, but it's far from me."

Xia Meng grinned: "That's right, I'm not in a hurry, I'll learn slowly."

Wang Xiangyi glanced at Dai Xiang, and the boy looked like he had lost his soul.

Perhaps he was frightened by Xia Meng's ever-changing mental power.

Yes, such a special guide is really beyond imagination.

I saw that the totem on Dai Xiang’s forehead had disappeared, and the water on the floor had also disappeared completely.

Wang Xiangyi retracted his gaze and said, "It seems that this first sparring partner is too easy for you. Let's switch to the next one."

Xia Meng asked curiously, "There's more? Where did you find that person, Master?"

She had the impression that her master had unilaterally severed ties with the Black Pagoda a long time ago.

He never interacted with any sentinels or guides, and even Zhou Qi and Bai Yizhu never gave him a good look.

Who else can he find to be his sparring partner?

It's impossible that Zhou Qi was invited here, right?

That's not good.

Zhou Qi is at least half her superior. How difficult will it be for her to know how to act when the time comes?

If it’s too light, Zhou Qi will easily think that she has no ability; if it’s too heavy, what if Zhou Qi writes it down in his notebook?

Wang Xiangyi looked at his watch and said, "It's about time for him to arrive."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of the training room.

The timing is just right.

Xia Meng and Wang Xiangyi turned their heads at the same time and saw a tall figure pushing the door open, standing at the door and slowly nodding at them.

The man's face was pale and his voice was low: "Sorry, I'm late."

Xia Meng was stunned for a moment.

I didn’t expect it to be Ning Yi.

But what she didn't expect was that Ning Yi looked so bad.

It felt like he had just been severely abused all day.

What happened to him?

Xia Meng had completely forgotten about the embarrassing incident yesterday. She spoke faster than she could think: "Captain Ning? What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

Ning Yi was silent for a few seconds.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the training room was a little awkward.

Once a sentinel shows symptoms of combined fever, they will not disappear just like that.

At this stage, the effect of drugs is minimal. If he cannot combine with a specific guide, he can only grit his teeth and endure the period of combination heat.

This cycle is usually long or short.

Some people can get through it in about two or three hours, while others need three to five days.

Of course, if a person really has to endure it for three to five days, he will usually be half dead.

So for Sentinel, combined with hot cycles can occasionally be very dangerous.

Ning Yi was lucky this time.

The symptoms of combined fever were relieved in less than half a day.

What he didn't expect was that as soon as he came out of the isolation room, he saw Zhou Qi standing outside the door, bringing him bad news - he had to come and serve as Xia Meng's sparring partner early tomorrow morning.

Wang Xiangyi looked Ning Yi up and down, his eyes critical and disdainful.

This was the first time he met Ning Yi.

It turns out that he is the captain of the current generation of Alpha Team.

At first glance, he is a dull person who can't even say a word even if you hit him with three sticks.

Apart from being taller and stronger, he doesn't seem to have any other advantages.

Humph, you big pig's hoof.
