Chapter 18 Comparing Martial Arts “Wow, I never thought that I was so renowned. My name is Bird Three, and I came here to study, not to make trouble. Please allow me to enter,” Bird said as he held both his hands in a salute to them, keeping his voice clear and resonant. “All Sounds End Skill was the secret martial art of the Que Family. Though it was only one piece of the countless arts of the family, this skill can bewilder the enemies" minds for several square kilometers with the spiritual power"s support. You are just a Ghost-Power Master who has a known the name of the ghost for several days. How can you know this skill?” A young man in green clothing came out from the other students, and said, “My name is Mo Linfeng, and I am a student majoring in Mindology at the Xiaoxiang City Grand University. Since you also know some skills of Mind Masters, why not compare martial arts with me?” “Brother Mo, you changed your major from the Study of Mechanisms to Mindology for only several months, and your performance has been in the Top Ten of the School of Mindology. Why do you need to fight with this nameless guy yourself? Better to prepare for the riddles of the Escape Game.” This young man was the one who had just yelled at Bird, a man named Yang Wanshan, a student of the School of the Study of Mechanisms. He was number three in their school, and within the Top Fifty of the whole Xiaoxiang City Grand University. “I just studied in the library the whole night. My body is stiff now. It is good for me to have some activity.” Mo Linfeng held his hand to give Bird Three a gesture indicating “Please”. Before the eyes of so many people, Bird hesitated. “As to comparing mind powers, you are not my match. Better to give up.” Since the day his master had picked him, Bird was forced to memorize all the Studies of Mindology, the Study of Mechanisms, and Medicines. Though he had no spiritual fire back then, he had a better knowledge than Mo Linfeng. “Right, right, my brother is in the Top Ten of the university, a talent of Mindology. How can you compare with him? But you can escape from us, Ghost-Power Master Bird Three.” Yang put emphasis on the t.i.tle Ghost-Power Master, to make the students and visitors keep on guard. “I am the Ghost-Power Master Bird Three, and I have all my memories, so there is no need to remind me again and again.” Bird was so eager to go to the library of the University. But, since the students would not let him in, he had to prepare for the fight. Mo Linfeng poured his spiritual powers into his hands, then held his hands together, and turned them in several different directions. After a while, he created a cover enchantment with a diameter of about a hundred meters. The skill of waving a cover was the first level art, and usually they were used to test the potential of the enemy. He used the All Sounds End Skill occasionally, and didn’t think that this would make trouble. Bird Three stood there with a smile on his lips, waiting for his opponent to start first. Soon, when Mo Linfeng finished making the enchantment, a strong stream of power raced for Bird. But it was split up before it could reach him, and the separated streams injured the people surrounding them. “This is a comparison. Why do you only defend, and not fight?” Mo Linfeng asked as he took back his power. “Though the mind power won’t kill people, it still hurts. You are not my equal, and I don"t want to hurt you,” Bird said. “Bulls.h.i.t! My brother is the Number Seven of our University. Dare you to boast here? Since you are afraid of my brother, you can compare with me." Yang Wanshan took some strands of his hair out and poured some spiritual fire on them. When the hair flew up, a pure blue light wall stood in front of them. “I read this in the ancient books. But I never imagined that the skills of Mo Family combined with the spiritual fire could create an impregnable fortress. That’s why the royal family relied on you Mo Family." This wall could even stop an army from invading, and Bird was so shock to see it with his own eyes. “My mechanism is number three of my school, but my brother was always Number One before. Are you scared, Bird Three?” “The mechanism skills of your university need the knowledge of astrology, study of the book of changes, and metaphysics, all together with the support of spiritual fire. You used your spiritual fire to forge the wall without any protection, so you already lose.” “The mechanism of our university can differentiate good from evil. The comparing of arts itself won"t hurt anybody. Don"t you, idiot, speak something so groundless.” Yang Wanshan thought of the dead killed by Ca.s.s because of the ghost of Bird’s appearance, and he lifted up his spiritual fire several levels and prepared to kill Bird. All of a sudden, the pure blue light spread everywhere to circle around Bird. When Bird moved one step, a spiritual trap would appear to catch him; sometimes it was the earth breaking, sometimes it was arrows flying for him. . . “You are good at controlling your spiritual fire. You did a good job and didn"t stimulate the bigger mechanism of the university. However, you are too eager to win, so this mechanism won"t sustain for a long time.” It was not difficult for him to find a way to break the mechanism, but he was afraid of stimulating the mechanism of the university, which might bring on great chaos. “I admit I lose. You can take back your efforts,” Bird Held said, holding up his hand. “You are daydreaming! I will kill you today, to avenge for the innocent dead. Bird, blame your bad luck that you ever met me.” Within the light wall, lightning lifted up to pierce the clouds to get rid of Bird Three.
