Gu Xingyun habitually wanted to stand between the two of them, but Baili Changhuan had already thrown a barrier in front of him.
"It's none of your business, so stay out of it."
"Hey, why are you being so mean to him?" Yan Huailiu couldn't bear to see others bullying his apprentice, so he subconsciously defended him.
Gu Xingyun raised the corners of his lips: "Master, I'm fine."
"Oh, then you should sit down and rest for a while. You must be tired after playing for so long."
Yan Huailiu removed the barrier that Baili Changhuan had set up earlier, handed the box of snacks to Gu Xingyun, and said worriedly, "You can eat them, but you have to leave at least six pieces for me. Got it?"
Gu Xingyun: ...
"Master, don't worry, I won't eat it."
He didn't really like this kind of snack, but... since his master liked it, he could study how to make it.
Yan Huailiu looked at Gu Xingyun with an increasingly kind gaze. Anyone who didn't snatch food from him was a good person!
He cast a cooling spell on Gu Xingyun and reset the barrier.
Baili Changhuan set up confinement, while he set up protection.
"Pay attention and learn as much as you can, okay?" Yan Huailiu reminded his apprentice without any hesitation.
Baili Changhuan, who had been watching the show for a while, sneered, "You're using me as a sparring partner, aren't you?"
"No, no, I just want him to learn more." Yan Huailiu explained with a smile.
My fighting spirit was completely destroyed by his laughter.
Baili Changhuan was angry that he was distracted so easily, and without waiting for Yan Huailiu to be ready, he took the initiative to greet him.
Yan Huailiu got into the state in a second and tried to give it his all, but after only one move, his original momentum was immediately reduced by half.
You overestimated my junior brother. He is just a sharp-tongued person.
After complaining in his heart, Yan Huailiu quickly adjusted his condition to the level where he could fight with Baili Changhuan.
Gu Xingyun, who was sitting next to him, didn't notice any of this. He just felt that the two men moved extremely quickly, and their moves seemed to have been upgraded a lot compared to his previous ones.
The whip transformed by spiritual power hit the back of Baili Changhuan's hand. He just hissed when he heard Yan Huailiu's apology: "Sorry, sorry, I was too quick and forgot you couldn't dodge it."
The feeling of powerlessness and laziness that came from being constantly suppressed immediately vanished, and Baili Changhuan roared at the top of his lungs, "Who are you looking down on?"
Gu Xingyun stared at Baili Changhuan's movements, silently memorized those moves, and by the way, also admired Yan Huailiu's fighting posture.
His master also looks so good with a whip.
It seems like I haven't whipped him for a long time. I miss it quite a bit.
Gu Xingyun licked his lips and continued to focus his attention on the two of them.
After a few moves, Yan Huailiu was not very happy. The weather was too hot, and even with the cooling spell, it would be uncomfortable to move.
He had no intention of playing with his junior brother, so he simply started giving instructions.
"Junior brother, you're too slow. Change direction immediately after stabbing me. Don't give me a chance to dodge."
"Junior brother, your movement is not standard. It's two inches too low. Maybe you're holding the sword incorrectly. Put your hand back a little."
"Oh, sorry, sorry, I thought you could dodge this. Is your arm okay, Junior Brother?"
"Shouldn't you stab Baihui directly after flying? Why did you stab Shenting? Did you change the movement yourself? This innovative spirit is worthy of praise, but it's not aggressive. The original movement is better."
…
During the entire fight, Yan Huailiu kept chattering.
Baili Changhuan was so angry that his temper almost reached its limit. He had several wounds on his body, but he couldn't even touch the corner of Yan Huailiu's clothes.
——Same as before, no, worse than before.
At least Yan Huailiu never said a word during the fights before, and only made a few sarcastic remarks after the fights were over.
Not like today!
Although I got the guidance I had been looking forward to the most, I was still so angry. What happened?
Where was the gentle feeding technique you promised? That whip almost beat him to death!
The most taboo thing during a competition is to lose your mind due to anger. You could have held out for a while longer, but once you get angry you will be exposed everywhere.
Yan Huailiu's whip accidentally got tangled around Baili Changhuan's waist, throwing him far away.
He was frightened himself, and quickly dispersed the spiritual power in his hands, ran over and helped the man up: "Are you okay, Junior Brother? I really didn't know you couldn't dodge."
Baili Changhuan pushed him away, and for the first time he was so angry that he almost cried.
Yan Huailiu looked at his expression and shut his mouth instantly.
I always feel that if he says one more word, this unfortunate junior brother will burst into tears.
It's not like he wants to compete...
Baili Changhuan left without saying a word, his back revealing aggrieved and lonely look.
Yan Huailiu looked at Gu Xingyun helplessly: "Did I say something wrong? Or did I do something wrong? Shouldn't I have hit him so hard?"
Gu Xingyun comforted him: "No, Master, don't worry. Junior Master is always like this after every challenge. It will be fine in a few days."
"Is that so?" Yan Huailiu looked around worriedly.
"Master, will your snacks melt in the sun?" Gu Xingyun's voice rang out.
"No, there's a charm on the box to keep it fresh." Yan Huailiu's attention was drawn to it. "Go get an empty box and bring a few back for Jingming and the others to try."
Yan Huailiu still cares about the other kids.
"Junior Brother Ling and the others will probably have to stay at the competition arena for the entire day. If we bring it back, it will go bad before they can eat it," Gu Xingyun explained.
"No." Yan Huailiu went into the house and found a food box. He carefully drew a talisman on the box: "This way you can put it in. It won't matter how long it is."
Gu Xingyun pursed his lips and hesitated for a while before speaking: "Master, this... can you teach me?"
What Master drew seemed different from what Junior Uncle-Master told him.
"Hmm? You want to learn this? Sure, I'll teach you later." Yan Huailiu distributed the snacks and invited Gu Xingyun in.
As long as there is no emotional connection, he is happy to teach you anything.
"This type of technique is usually drawn when it's needed. Drawing it on paper in advance is convenient, but the effect may be compromised. Try using your mental skills to separate a strand of spiritual energy and gather it in your palm, slowly extending it to the tip of the pen..."
Yan Huailiu held his hand and drew on the paper with a serious look on his face.
Gu Xingyun's Adam's apple rolled, and he tried his best to keep himself sane. He began to gather spiritual power according to the method taught by Yan Huailiu.
Yan Huailiu's attention was all on the talisman, fearing that a wrong stroke would produce some strange effect. The hand holding it suddenly trembled, and Gu Xingyun spat out a mouthful of blood on the talisman paper.
Before he had time to worry, Yan Huailiu heard a familiar sound of electricity in his mind, and the system that had disappeared for a long time suddenly came online at this moment.
