The practice area is somewhat like an octagonal cage fighting ring, with a huge platform in the center of the arena surrounded by wire mesh, about half the size of a basketball court.
There is a ring of bulletproof glass around the outside of the barbed wire fence, and rows of seats on the outermost edge.
If you didn't know better, you'd think it was some underground boxing match!
When Xia Tianqiong and his group arrived, there were already sixty or seventy people gathered inside, including newly joined civilian ghost hunters, official ghost hunters, and some staff members from the Administration Bureau.
The civilian ghost hunters sat on the north side, while the official ghost hunters sat on the south side, clearly separating the two groups.
The practical demonstrations of trickery are highly entertaining, even more exciting than boxing or Sanda matches, and attract a large crowd to watch each demonstration.
"Quiet down. I will be the instructor for today's trickery practice exercise."
A middle-aged man with a square face stood in the center of the octagonal cage, facing the civilian ghost hunters, "Whether you break the rules of death or trigger the rules, in the end you have to resort to force to take down the supernatural."
Today's training session will teach you how to quickly master your own tricks. First, the Bureau's trick hunters will conduct a practical demonstration. Observe carefully, and then you can each go to the arena and practice on your own.
The instructor's voice was loud and clear, echoing throughout the entire underground level.
Next, the official ghost hunters entered the iron cages in pairs to begin practical training.
The spectators cheered and applauded, creating a lively atmosphere.
Xia Tianqiong sat in the corner of the last row, watching with great interest.
The authorities clearly didn't send any particularly skilled ghost hunters, and the tricks they used weren't very powerful, but the fight was exceptionally exciting.
It is clear that they have become extremely skilled in using their trickery.
About half an hour later, the instructors prepared to have the civilian ghost hunters come on stage for a demonstration.
At that moment, Akita Shun suddenly went up on the stage and whispered a few words in the instructor's ear.
The instructor suddenly beamed and said loudly to everyone, "Everyone, the man next to me is a senior ghost hunter who possesses a malevolent ghost-level monster."
Most of you here have contracts with wild spirits, and a few with fierce spirits. You may not be familiar with the strength of evil spirits, so you're in for a treat today. Mr. Akita Shun is here to demonstrate for you all; please give him a warm welcome.
The crowd immediately cheered and applauded.
Nine out of ten strange occurrences nowadays are wild ghosts, one out of ten are fierce ghosts, and evil ghosts are only encountered occasionally and are very rare.
As for the more advanced ones, they are rarely seen nationwide. It will take some time before high-level anomalies appear.
The instructor found Akita Shun an official ghost hunter, who was quite skilled and possessed a powerful ghost-level ability.
Before starting, Akita Shun specifically looked at Xia Tianqiong.
It's like they're saying, "Watch closely, I'm about to show off!"
The live-fire exercise has officially begun.
The official ghost hunter suddenly darted out, leaving a long trail of green afterimages behind him, shooting towards Akita Shun like an arrow.
Akita Shun, however, calmly opened his mouth, and a ray of golden light flew out from his mouth.
Upon landing, it instantly transformed into a giant toad.
To be precise, it should be a three-legged toad.
Its entire body is golden yellow, but its eyes are blood red. It has only three legs and is nearly two meters tall when it lies on the ground, much taller than Akita Shun.
The official ghost hunter's attack struck it, accompanied by sparks and clanging sounds.
Surprisingly, they were completely unharmed.
Akita Shun stood behind with his arms crossed, like a bystander, but his face was full of smugness, and he even glanced at Xia Tianqiong.
"Wow!"
The golden toad suddenly let out a strange cry, then opened its mouth wide, and its scarlet tongue instantly sprang out, entangling the official ghost hunter, pulling it into its mouth, and swallowing it.
The audience was horrified.
It actually swallowed a person.
"Don't worry, it's just a drill, no one will be killed."
Akita Shun gave an explanation, then ordered the golden toad to spit out the man.
The person was not injured, but was dizzy and seemed a little dazed.
"good!"
The instructor was the first to clap and applaud, and then the audience joined in.
Only the two of them sat there quietly, neither clapping nor cheering. Instead, one of them yawned, as if the match was rather boring.
These two are naturally Xia Tianqiong and Huang Yu.
When Akita Shunya saw this, his face immediately darkened, feeling that he had been slighted.
"Since everyone is so happy, why don't we find another person to practice with me?"
He took the initiative to suggest it to the instructor.
The instructor was naturally willing and was about to find him another person when he raised his hand and pointed in a certain direction.
"That young man has been very calm throughout, he must be quite capable. Why don't we let him go on stage?"
The instructor, without even getting a good look at the person, called out, "Would you like to come up on stage for a practice session?"
Xia Tianqiong said nothing and walked straight to the platform.
Upon arriving, the instructor recognized Xia Tianqiong and was immediately surprised, "So it's Mr. Xia."
Xia Tianqiong nodded in response.
The instructor hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "You two, stop here and don't make too much of a commotion."
When Akita Shun heard this, he thought the instructor was reminding him not to hurt anyone.
"Don't worry, I won't kill him."
Xia Tianqiong stood opposite him, her expression remaining calm. "Let's begin. I don't want to waste too much time here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it, and a small figure flew out of the bronze mirror.
The dog with the human head landed on the platform, still holding a gold ingot in its mouth.
It glanced around, then immediately swallowed the gold, glaring at Xia Tianqiong with a resentful expression.
