Chapter 119: Battle between Brother and Sister
After returning to the academy, Chu Yi closed his eyes and used his spiritual sense to search a little, and found that his classmates were receiving swordsmanship instruction from Xiao Ling on the training ground.
Then, this group of rookies who had never been exposed to kendo were beaten to a pulp by the sword master.
Chu Yi retracted his spiritual sense and opened his eyes with amusement. Xiao Ling's character is very old-fashioned and serious. As a pure sword practitioner who practices the way of the sword, his seriousness about the way of the sword is unmatched by other practitioners.
Now he is asked to teach the New Century genius who used to be lazy, which is really difficult for him. Looking at his dark face, this class must have been very sad for him.
After laughing secretly for a while outside the meditation room, Chu Yi packed up and flew to the training ground.
She should also hurry up and practice her attacking ability, otherwise next time she encounters an emergency like Fuso, she can't always use the cheating finger. Although it’s not a big deal, it’s still a pleasure to work hard with my classmates to make progress.
Relying on the speed of the Jindan stage, Chu Yi stood at the entrance of the training ground a few seconds later. She quickened her pace slightly and walked towards Xiao Ling, who was standing outside the training ground with her arms folded.
"Hello, Teacher Xiao. I am Chu Yi, your student, reporting in."
Chu Yi bowed gracefully, turned his back to the classmates, and looked up at Xiao Ling with a friendly smile in his eyes.
Ever since the Poseidon incident, she found that she could no longer simply treat these suits and vests as tools. Maybe they are not real creatures, their memories, abilities, and existence are all fictitious, but their feelings for her are truly pure.
How lucky can one be in life to meet such a person?
It is almost impossible. Many people will never meet someone who is willing to give them whatever they ask for in their entire life. Even parents have to settle accounts, not to mention other people.
So Chu Yi is trying a new way of getting along with others, trying to show more trust and closeness.
She had always been worried that the vests were creations of the system and might not be smart enough, so she always did it herself every time she had a plan. Even if you don't go into battle yourself, you should have an avatar to take control from the side.
But now it seemed that maybe she could let go and let them act on their own.
Xiao Ling naturally also felt the change in Chu Yi. He lowered his head slightly, and the expression on his face became surprised and unexpected. Although they never objected to their master's decisions, they were all very happy to gain her more trust.
Unable to help but let go of her arms that were folded across her chest, Xiao Ling raised the corners of her lips that had been tightly pursed for years and revealed a small smile a little stiffly. Considering that this was in public and there were other students watching quietly behind him, he moved his fingers but gave up the idea of rubbing Chu Yi's head.
Softening her voice, Xiao Ling said gently for the first time: "Go to class with everyone else. If you have any questions, you can come and ask me."
"Okay, thank you teacher~"
Chu Yi's mentality changed and her mood became cheerful again. After saying goodbye to Xiao Ling happily, she jumped towards Gu Jiayan.
My eyes couldn't help but follow her back. Deep in Xiao Ling's eyes, there was a sense of relief and emotion that outsiders couldn't understand.
From the moment they opened their eyes in front of Chu Yi, they clearly understood the meaning of their existence. They are not real living beings, but gifts bestowed by the Lord God for their masters to complete their missions.
But no "vestite" cares about these issues.
So what if existence is false? So what if I only exist for one person? Even if you may just be a 'disposable tool', so what?
Without their masters, they wouldn't even have a chance to exist. For everyone, Chu Yi is the most important person, no doubt about it.
So when they found that Chu Yi was releasing more trust and dependence, they felt only happiness in their hearts, without any other emotions.
After watching silently for a while, Xiao Ling calmed down and returned to his previous dark face. Then he began to shoot threatening death stares at the geniuses in the elite class.
If it weren't for Chu Yi's order, he would absolutely throw this group of stupid students onto the battlefield. Without the baptism of blood and fire, they simply cannot understand the meaning of weapons.
The unstoppable and forward-looking sword art turned into soft and limp fancy moves in their hands. That weak strength wasn't even as powerful as the warriors from the common folk.
Although what they practiced was just fancy moves, at least they were full of vigor.
The teaching in the past two days almost broke Xiao Ling's calm state of mind. In another sense, they are also true geniuses.
Among this group of people, only Gu Jiayan and Qin Hang looked better.
Gu Jiayan has been exposed to cultivation since he was a child, so he has a solid foundation and can understand many problems without him having to explain much. Like Qin Hang, he has been learning various fencing sports and has a rough understanding of kendo.
At least you can put on a decent show and make your flower stand look better.
Others just can’t do it at all.
At first, Xiao Ling thought that the soldiers would be the ones with the fastest progress in the class. Because they have seen blood, fought with the enemy with real swords and guns, and have received high-intensity professional training on a regular basis, they should be the best among them.
But unexpectedly the reality was completely the opposite.
The performance of Duan Shi and the others was no different from that of other rookies, except that their posture was better looking and their movements were very powerful. In addition, once they are asked to pick up swords and fight the enemy, they are unable to integrate the moves they have learned.
Xiao Ling did an experiment, letting Gu Jiayan and Qin Hang be the champions, and the other students challenged them in turn. Whenever the two of them started changing their moves, disrupting the order of their moves, or combining two moves, the others would not know how to respond.
Then subconsciously, everyone wanted to attack with spells, or fight back based on the habits they had formed over the years.
This was of course not allowed. Every time Xiao Ling, who was watching, would swing out a sword energy to teach the person who made the mistake a lesson.
Unfortunately, habits developed over the years are not so easy to change. Several students who were military veterans have suffered a lot since they started learning kendo.
It doesn't mean that everyone has to be like Xiao Ling, using sword to enter the Tao and follow the path of pure sword cultivation. But at the beginning of learning, you must not use other means to cover up your shortcomings.
And he had already made it clear when he was teaching. If anyone thinks that they are not suitable for practicing Kendo, it’s okay, just report it to him and he will relax the requirements for them in the future.
This is not a show of force, but some people are simply not born to be suitable for this path. Just like refining elixirs, refining weapons, and drawing talismans, the practice of kendo also requires talent.
And it doesn’t mean that we will no longer teach them, but we will not guide them with such strict requirements and the teaching principles will be different.
However, with such a good teacher to guide us, we are not fools, so how could we possibly give up the opportunity we have obtained? No matter how untalented you are, you must keep learning.
Even children understand that we must persevere in doing things.
They had made their decision, so Xiao Ling naturally had no reason to persuade them anymore. But facing a group of stupid and dull students was really a big test of his state of mind.
Xiao Ling crossed his arms across his chest again, and looked at everyone with increasingly stern eyes, making everyone afraid to make any mistakes.
This also made Chu Yi restrain his attitude. He took out a basic iron sword from his storage bracelet and began to demonstrate it in a serious manner.
She originally wanted to harass her brother, but she secluded herself when the college started, and went on a business trip shortly after she came out. After returning from the business trip, she secluded herself again. The two siblings haven't had a good chat for a long time.
Unfortunately, now doesn't seem to be a good time.
Behind the stern Xiao Ling, Chu Yi secretly stuck out her tongue at Gu Jiayan, looking playful and lively.
After receiving her signal, Gu Jiayan also took a little attention away from his practice and threw her a look that was a mixture of helplessness and doting. After retracting his gaze, Gu Jiayan paused his movements, and it was unknown what he thought of, but he suddenly walked towards Chu Yi.
He took two steps to Chu Yi and said seriously under her puzzled gaze: "Xiao Yi, come and practice with me."
"?"
Chu Yi tilted his head, not understanding why Brother Yan came up with such an idea. It was obvious that she had always been treated as a flower in a greenhouse and was spoiled.
Could it be that after watching her battle video, he suddenly realized that she is actually a carnivorous queen of flowers and does not need a greenhouse?
Chu Yi suppressed the messy thoughts in his mind and accepted Gu Jiayan's challenge without hesitation.
It just so happened that she also wanted to see what level Gu Jiayan, who seemed to be following the traditional male protagonist's script, had reached after embarking on the path of cultivation for so long. Moreover, he has such a good understanding, and perhaps an actual combat experience will allow him to understand a lot.
Without further ado, the two siblings ran straight to the fighting arena in the distance.
After leaping into the air onto the stage, the protective barrier was automatically activated, surrounding the two of them.
The lowest defense limit of the barrier in the academy is Jindan. People who don't reach that level will never be able to break through the protection of the barrier and hurt the things around them. The barrier also has an automatic detection function. As long as one of the people inside encounters a life-threatening attack, the barrier will automatically eject that person.
This is a function specially added by Chu Yi. At this stage, every student in Xunzhen Academy is a treasure of the country. We should reduce unnecessary losses as much as possible.
In fact, the ancient sects of cultivation also operated in this way. Everyone wanted to preserve more manpower to increase their competitiveness. No matter at which period, the next generation is the most precious treasure.
Seeing the two big stars from the academy walking towards the stage, the other students couldn't help but stop what they were doing and gathered around them.
As a result, when they were halfway through the journey, everyone remembered that they were still doing basic training and there was a teacher supervising them. Several people stopped at the same time, looking at each other, not daring to look back at the teacher's expression.
Fortunately, Xiao Ling was not really so rigid that he was inflexible. He looked at the students rushing towards the arena without any reaction. Even when passing by them, I would gently remind them to pay attention and learn.
Realizing that this meant they were allowed to desert their duty, Shi Fan and Gu Qianwen, who were more lively, cheered quietly on the spot. The two girls held hands and ran to the ring first, staring at the two people on the stage intently.
The others looked at each other and followed the teacher towards the arena.
After the audience was in place, Chu Yi and Gu Jiayan didn't waste any time, they each picked up the sword in their hands and attacked.
In the battle in which Chu Yi supported Fuso, it could be seen that she was quite good at using the sword, at least better than those of them who had been receiving instruction from famous teachers in the academy. Although Gu Jiayan didn't know when she started learning kendo, it was a good opportunity to test her own level.
Among the students in the elite class, only Qin Hang can barely compete with him, and the level gap between the other students is still quite large. Teacher Xiao’s level is too high. Even if he fights with him in a coaching battle, he will end up being completely defeated.
Therefore, Gu Jiayan has never had a clear understanding of his own level. He urgently needs an opponent like Chu Yi, who is at a higher level than him and is slightly better at swordsmanship than him, to give him inspiration.
After the battle started, the expression on Gu Jiayan's face became extremely serious, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Chu Yi no longer had the familiarity of the past. People who don’t know them might really think that the two are rivals.
Being treated like this by his own brother, Chu Yi's face did not show any fluctuation at all. The murderous aura around him was even stronger than his own, stimulating Gu Jiayan so much that veins popped out on his hand holding the hilt of the sword.
She is not a pretentious little princess with a glass heart. Fighting is fighting, and there is no friendship or family affection to speak of. In a formal battle, giving in because of emotion is the greatest insult to the opponent.
Besides, this isn't a life-and-death battle. There are multiple layers of protection to ensure that no one's life will be harmed. If you don't even dare to face such a competition, how can you ever think of leaving the academy and facing the cruel world of cultivation?
Therefore, both of them were very serious in the fight, and every move was aimed at the opponent's vital points.
They threw themselves into the battle with all their heart and soul, without feeling anything, but they frightened the students who were watching. They all thought that the duel between Chu Yi and Gu Jiayan was just like their usual exchanges, but they didn't expect it to be a deadly exchange of moves.
But I have to say, this kind of battle looks interesting.
Everyone was worried about them, but at the same time, they couldn't help but clench their fists, being deeply impressed by this extremely exciting battle.
At the same time, I also learned from their battles many things that I could not fully understand through normal practice.
At the beginning, the two of them fought vigorously and vigorously, but when the world-famous flower ornament on Chu Yi'e's heart appeared, Gu Jiayan gradually fell into a disadvantage.
In fact, saying "being at a disadvantage" is a bit of an understatement. Strictly speaking, the battle on the field right now can only be described as one-sided. Chu Yi completely suppressed Gu Jiayan, and his defense looked extremely awkward.
But even so, Gu Jiayan did not say that he gave up, but tried desperately to find an opportunity to fight back. He also did not use any other spells to attack, and tried his best to use the sword techniques taught by Xiao Ling.
The purpose of his launching the challenge was to improve his swordsmanship. If he used other methods, he would fail.
Looking at Gu Jiayan who was trying hard to hold on, Xiao Ling's cold and serious expression relaxed a lot.
Who wouldn’t like a student who is extremely talented, highly intelligent, and able to persevere and work hard? In ancient times, people like Gu Jiayan would be someone that even the top bosses would lose face and fight for.
Chu Yi is not among them. She is the kind of person that many big guys worry about whether they can teach well.
If Gu Jiayan had not died and had continued to do well, he would probably have become one of the big bosses on Blue Star in the future.
Unfortunately, Gu Jiayan, who was highly expected by Xiao Ling, was defeated by Chu Yi after persisting for a period of time. And because neither side had any scruples, both of them were covered in bruises and looked miserable.
After the battle, Chu Yi ran to Gu Jiayan and stuffed a top-level healing pill into his mouth. Her realm is higher, and when they use the same moves, the damage suffered by Gu Jiayan is much greater than hers.
As a result, his condition now appears to be much more serious. Faced with such a brother, Chu Yi naturally felt distressed. He didn't even care about his own injuries and went to take care of him first.
