Chapter 19: Zhanxu Swordsmanship
The body is gone... Xu Shen looked at this place, stunned.
Obviously, the body should have been taken away by the Light Chasing Society they mentioned.
Xu Shen couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that he left in time, otherwise he would be caught red-handed and would not be able to explain.
"They took care of a D-level beast so quickly. These guys are getting stronger and stronger..." The leader of the five people sighed softly, seeming worried.
"And there wasn't any intense fighting." Liu Feng said calmly.
"Brother Liu, what is the light chasing meeting you are talking about?"
Xia Jingxiang couldn't help but ask .
Xu Shen pricked up his ears and secretly gave a thumbs up to Sister Xia in his heart.
"They also have ruins cutters, but they are different from us. We are orthodox, and they are private. We need to deal with all the ruins that appear in the bottom city, while they only deal with their own targets."
Liu Feng snorted coldly: "If you have the chance to meet them in the future, don't be polite, but don't take the initiative to provoke them. Generally speaking, they don't want to go against us."
“There are actually private organizations?”
Not only Xu Shen, but everyone else was surprised as well.
Xia Jingxiang wanted to ask more, but Liu Feng didn't want to say more. After checking the surrounding situation, he asked Brother Xu to take the five people away.
As for the assessment of Zhao Yuan and others, it will be kept until next time.
Then we will gather another trainer to hunt with them.
Normally, newcomers are assessed in groups of three, hunting down E-level beasts. This is the standard combat power passing line for formal team members, unless they encounter some special E-level beasts that are more dangerous. Other E-level beasts can be dealt with by three people.
Xu Shen accompanied him throughout the process, and he was relieved when he saw that he did not leave any clues at the scene.
…
…
Returning to the Xumi Bureau, the newcomers were sent back to the training ground.
The bald coach saw everyone returning and glanced at Zhao Yuan. His face darkened. "We failed, and one of us died?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other people on the training ground couldn't help but look over and their expressions changed.
Zhao Yuan had long experienced the bald coach's straightforwardness, so he told him the situation. When he learned that they had encountered a D-level ruins beast, the bald coach couldn't help but frown.
"In that case, we're lucky to have only one person die." The bald coach glanced at them and waved his hand: "Go back and rest. You don't need to participate in today's training."
"Yeah." Zhao Yuan was in no mood to stay any longer.
"We didn't do anything. I can still go on." Xia Jingxiang had no plans to rest. After seeing the Ruins Beast today, she realized how ridiculous her so-called intensive training over the past five months was. She was far from enough.
"what ever."
The bald coach said this and ignored him.
Except Xia Jingxiang, everyone else left.
Xu Shen also returned to his dormitory.
He has already mastered the power of the body. There is no point in staying in the training ground and continuing to pretend. He might as well go back to the dormitory and practice controlling his body.
When fighting with the little girl before, Xu Shen found that although his strength and speed were slightly better than hers when he exerted his full strength, he was at a disadvantage in the battle for a while.
He was extremely lacking in combat experience and reaction.
When facing an enemy, the brain will fall into a state of confusion, which is very fatal.
"Fortunately, this time it was 'Mom' who protected me..." Xu Shen said to himself.
He felt his abdomen, preparing to wait for his coach to teach him the Zhanxu sword technique tomorrow.
…
Nightfall.
Xu Shen dreamed that he returned home again.
"Mom" was in front of him, looking at him with a sad face.
Behind “Mom” were the five members of the Zhanxu team who killed her. Their figures were blurry, like five pillars standing in the darkness, like cold and indifferent executioners.
"Mom is not by your side, you have to take good care of yourself, no matter what happens, you must live, okay..." With a sad voice and eyes full of worry, "Mom" seemed very reluctant to let go.
Xu Shen felt a strange feeling in his heart.
"You must eat well and live well..." Mom still kept admonishing.
The cold sword light suddenly swept past and cut off his head.
The head rolled to Xu Shen's feet, and his lips were still opening and closing: "You must eat three meals a day, eat well..."
"I will, Mom..." Xu Shen whispered, as if to comfort his mother.
…
The light shines.
It's dawn.
Xu Shen woke up and looked at the clock. It was almost seven o'clock.
He quickly washed, changed his clothes, and went to the training ground to gather.
Every day's training follows the process as usual, with no special changes. Newcomers at each stage receive training at their respective stages.
"Coach, I want to learn swordsmanship."
When it was free training time, Xu Shen came to the bald coach.
"fencing?"
The bald coach looked at Xu Shen, thinking of the first time he went to observe the battle of Xu beasts, which was also the first time in his life that he "saw the Xu", and he was attacked by a D-level Xu beast.
I'm lucky to be alive...
"How's your control over Xu Li going? I heard from Xia Jingxiang yesterday that you were chased by that D-level Xu Beast and you ran very fast. Did you inject Xu Li into your legs at the critical moment?" said the bald coach.
Xu Shen's heart sank. He didn't expect that Xia Jingxiang would actually notice this at such a critical moment.
"Well, my brain got hot at that time and I don't know why I ran so fast." Xu Shen said.
The bald coach chuckled: "This is a good thing. Most people would be stunned when frightened. This shows that your body's stress response is better than that of ordinary people. This is very good for us combat personnel."
He stood up and said, "Although it's a little early to learn swordsmanship now, you can also try to control your strength while practicing swordsmanship, so you can do both at the same time."
This way the "shipping" speed will be faster... Xu Shen said silently in his heart.
"Zhanxu Sword Technique is actually not difficult. The key is to become proficient at it."
The bald coach picked up an iron sword and waved it around, saying, "There are three main points when we fight with swords, namely attack, defense, and resolution! You see, they practice sword slashing and chopping every day, repeating the training, which is to practice strong attacks!"
"You don't need too many other moves. How to use your own strength in the most proficient and fastest way is to attack!"
"When you're killing the ruins, you don't care about appearance. The simpler the better. Simple things can often vent more power!"
As he spoke, he swung the iron sword a few times, making a rustling sound, and the air seemed to be cut through.
"Although you have a lot of strength, it's not difficult for you to practice the whole set of sword techniques, but the key is to be familiar with your body."
The bald coach said, "This sword move includes all the moves of attack, defense, and resolution. For example, the attacks include straight stabbing, diagonal stabbing, stabbing, and chopping. We will encounter various situations in battle, and the Xu beasts will also attack you from various angles. They are not just wooden stakes that stand there for you to chop."
“So you have to be able to swing and chop with force at all kinds of tricky angles.”
Xu Shen nodded. The way he held the sword when he defended against the little girl was obviously wrong, which caused him to lose his grip on the sword and it slipped out of his hand after being hit hard. This was equivalent to a death sentence .
