Fan Qianning would not use this tactic unless absolutely necessary.
If the enemy's soul power is strong, [Soul Stealing] will have little effect on it, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to Fan Qianning.
It's the last thing Fan Qianning wants to see: giving it her all but not getting the desired result.
Completely drained of all her energy by this move, Fan Qianning collapsed to the ground with a thud. She gasped for breath, her face showing deep exhaustion.
What was supposed to be a one-minute illusion was broken without Yan Luoyan even bothering to savor it. He walked to Fan Qianning's side and placed his hand on her flat stomach.
The pure chaotic energy helped Fan Qianning recover her energy, making her feel better.
Being completely drained is definitely not a pleasant feeling.
Before long, Fan Qianning stood up energetically and joined everyone in starting the next round of training.
Everyone was holding their breath, training like there was no time to relax.
Tu Keke, itching to join in, greeted Xu Rongyue and then went to change clothes to join the training.
If there's a legitimate reason to openly gang up on her uncle, Tu Keke is unlikely to let this opportunity pass.
Xu Rongyue watched from the corner as Tu Keke and Man Sui rushed towards Yan Luo with excited expressions, practically wearing "Kill Yan Luo" on their faces. She couldn't stop smiling as she watched her two best friends.
The 22nd squad heard that the 9th squad was having training today, so they went upstairs to the lounge to watch.
Since Captain Wang Feng was demoted due to a misjudgment, the squad has been reorganized, with Vice Captain Lin Xue promoted to Captain and member Xu Qinghe promoted to Vice Captain. Two more Tier 6 combatants were subsequently added, making it a complete squad.
Shen Siqi placed her hand on the glass of the lounge, staring in astonishment at the dazzling attacks of the Ninth Squad in the training room below.
"No wonder they're one of the top ten teams in the country. Their reaction speed and offensive tactics are on a completely different level from ours," Shen Siqi sighed softly.
Xu Qinghe glanced at his sister, then focused on watching the training of the Ninth Squad.
"Don't think like that. We just need to do our best. Everyone is working hard for Longxia, and we need to work even harder to keep up with them," Xu Qinghe said, patting Shen Siqi on the shoulder.
Chen Siqi stuck out her tongue.
"I know, I didn't mean anything by it."
Team leader Lin Xue reached out and tapped her on the head.
"Don't talk, just watch carefully."
"yes!"
The Ninth Squad's attack was swift, and their combat thinking was extremely coordinated. Everyone appeared in the right place at the right time and used the right moves. Yan Luo was very pleased and kept defending and dodging, allowing the 22nd Squad to witness the style of this youngest ninth-level ghost hunter.
A training session only lasts a few minutes, which neither humans nor ghouls can afford to waste; a quick victory is essential.
Ghouls are not living people, so they don't get tired much even after fighting for a long time. On the contrary, humans consume more energy the longer they fight, their stamina drops significantly, their reaction speed decreases, and they are more likely to have accidents if they are not careful.
Xu Qinghe was surprised to see Tu Keke and Man Sui. Although he had heard about them, seeing with his own eyes that these young women had similar strength to him still made him feel a little envious.
Talent is something that makes people feel miserable when they compare themselves to others.
The newly recruited members of the 22nd squad also understood why they couldn't pass the 9th squad's review. Just look at the Xue siblings who had only recently joined and were already at the seventh rank, especially Xue Yunting, whose long spear was very eye-catching.
Every move is deadly, giving the enemy no chance to breathe. The teamwork with Zhong Jiudao is excellent and entertaining.
What's truly unbelievable is the pair of sisters, Fan Qianning and Xie Huai'an. These two sisters, only eighteen years old, are already eighth-level ghost hunters. Even though we know they are the inheritors of the first generation, no matter how powerful the inheritance is, it still depends on their own talent.
They haven't had their birthdays yet; strictly speaking, the two sisters are still seventeen. At seventeen, there's absolutely no third person in the entire country who is at the eighth rank. In terms of talent, the Ninth Squad is definitely the strongest among the ten ninth-rank squads.
Even the seven old men in the first squad were speechless with envy. In Wang Yi's words, it took him more than 20 years to reach the ninth level.
The two girls started at the same level as them, but their talents were even more extraordinary.
In the second round of training, Fan Qianning did not plan to use the Illusionary Killing Array [Soul Stealing], but instead planned to use the Killing Array [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Array].
The preparation for the [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation] does not take long. For Fan Qianning, who is now at the eighth level, she can even work with Tu Keke and Man Sui to use magic to interfere with Yan Luo.
The moment the formation was ready to be activated, thousands of gleaming immortal swords charged towards Yanluo.
Yan Luo reached out to Xu Rongyue in the corner, an invisible barrier protecting her from any mishap. He used bone spikes to shield himself from the endless stream of immortal swords.
The shock of this scene was immense, leaving everyone in the 22nd squad speechless.
As a formation master, Fan Qianning should be more of a support role according to common understanding. However, Fan Qianning of the Ninth Squad is different. Her formations have always been the Ninth Squad's trump card, used to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.
And then there were those things that looked like magic; the spells of Fan Qianning, Tu Keke, and Man Sui brought waves of surprises to those who had never seen them before.
The morning's training whetted the appetites of everyone gathered at the Ghost Hunting Bureau's canteen at noon. Tu Keke and Man Sui ate with the most gusto, praising Chef Li in the kitchen so much that he was embarrassed.
Lin Xue and Chi Miaomiao were on good terms, so she asked, "Miaomiao, what's the name of the magic-like thing that Qian Ning and those two girls used?"
Chi Miaomiao explained it to those who had never seen it before, letting them know that magic exists. It turns out that myths weren't lying; magic really does exist in this world.
After learning about the relationship between Tu Keke, Man Sui, and Yan Luo, Lin Xue sighed.
"Each generation is stronger than the last, and Longxia will become more and more prosperous."
This made Tu Keke and Man Sui blush with embarrassment, and their eating became much more elegant, although the chopsticks that left afterimages betrayed their belief in the supremacy of food.
Being able to sit and eat with Yan Luo made the four members of the 22nd squad, apart from Lin Xue, Xu Qinghe, and Shen Siqi, somewhat nervous.
They were more familiar with Chi Miaomiao and the others, and didn't see Yan Luo very often. Now that they were eating together, they realized that Yan Luo was actually a very easy-going person.
A person's name, a tree's shadow.
Yanluo's reputation in the ghost-hunting world is so great that people who have heard of him subconsciously assume that he must be a very serious and upright person.
While eating, everyone discussed the matter, and the general idea was that they needed to strengthen their training, as their current strength was insufficient to contend with the Corpse Demon Organization, which had gathered all its main forces in Guangzhou.
After lunch, Yanluo and the others sat in the lounge for a short rest. He took out his phone and sent a message to Zhang Bichen, who was at the Ghost Hunting Bureau in Beijing, to tell Zhang Bichen what An Qiuxi had told him the day before.
