Chapter 226: Wen Shao’s Malice
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At five o’clock on Monday afternoon, in the a.5.5 training room of the combat training building.
Chai Xiao and Chi Hongying arrived on time.
Chi Hongying looked very good. Her long red, blue, and silver hair was tied up high. She looked very heroic.
Chai Xiao’s short yellow, gray, and green hair did not look as striking against Chi Hongying’s long hair.
“I was wondering when I could find you to train my mental attack endurance. I didn’t expect you to ask us out first. I heard from him that you have a new ability and want to practice with us?” Chi Hongying was very direct.
“Yes, Sister-in-law. Just come at me directly. You can attack me all you want. I’ll use my mental whip to whip you when I can’t hold on anymore,” Xu Tui said.
At the side, Chai Xiao was speechless. He was ignoring him.
“Alright. Then I won’t wear combat armor. You can wear it.”
With a low shout, Chi Hongying lightly leaped to the standard combat position. Her bra.s.s knuckles and fist spikes were raised high and lowered low respectively. She looked like she was about to kill someone!
Just from her aura and posture, Chi Hongying had advanced to another level compared to the actual combat exchange a month ago.
At that time, she was fierce. Now, she was intense.
“Are you ready? I’m going to attack!”
“Bring it on!”
Almost at the same time, Chi Hongying leaped forward like a fish. She charged forward in a disorderly manner, her fist spike and bra.s.s knuckles cutting and exploring in front of her like lightning.
This was her reaction to Xu Tui’s mental awl tactic.
Chi Hongying was very professional.
However, Xu Tui did not set up a mental awl today. He had invited Chi Hongying over to test his new ability.
Chi Hongying’s speed was extremely fast. In less than a second, she had arrived in front of Xu Tui. Her bra.s.s knuckles and fist spikes were aimed at Xu Tui’s vital points.
However, Xu Tui remained standing.
Chi Hongying hesitated for a moment when the fist was about to reach Xu Tui’s throat. However, when she saw Xu Tui’s extremely confident expression, her fist still landed firmly.
Xu Tui did not seem to have moved. He leaned his neck back slightly and withdrew his right foot at the same time. He dodged Chi Hongying’s attack at the same time.
Chi Hongying was stunned. When she saw Xu Tui’s confident look, she became furious. She lowered her body and became like a ghost as she surrounded Xu Tui and attacked him fiercely.
The frequency of the attacks made Chai Xiao break out in cold sweat. If he was. .h.i.t, he would definitely be injured!
However, Xu Tui, who was enduring Chi Hongying’s relentless attacks, was exceptionally calm. He felt that close-range attacks were no longer as terrifying with his extremely powerful mental perception and extremely fast reflexes. His body had become much more agile after going through a month of muscle reactions. He could often avoid Chi Hongying’s fierce attacks with the smallest of movements.
This made Chi Hongying so angry that her almond-shaped eyes widened.
In essence, Xu Tui was a Mage from the Mystery Branch. As long as the Extreme Branch got close to him, he would definitely kneel.
However, Xu Tui acted as if nothing had happened when she got close to him.
She had no choice but to be angry!
Chi Hongying suddenly let out a delicate cry. A sonic boom suddenly rang out. An energy-field attack forced Xu Tui to retreat slightly. Chi Hongying’s fist was already waiting in the direction where Xu Tui had retreated.
It stabbed toward Xu Tui’s ribs at lightning speed.
Bang!
There was no scene of Xu Tui being stabbed. Instead, there was a dull sound of metal clashing.
Chi Hongying’s fist spike was bounced back.
Chi Hongying glared at him. “Energy field?”
In the next moment, Chi Hongying turned to attack Xu Tui from another direction.
Xu Tui smiled and nodded. At the same time, he took the initiative to give up on dodging. He allowed Chi Hongying’s fists and bra.s.s knuckles to attack various parts of his body. He had called Chi Hongying over today to test his Lesser Heavenly Cycle genetic chain ability. After cultivating the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Genetic Chain, the energy field power in his dantian could be used as a defense and attack anywhere on his upper body.
Xu Tui wanted to test the defensive strength of the energy field after he completed the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Genetic Chain.
Bang bang bang bang!
The clashes continued.
Even though Chi Hongying’s attack speed was as fast as a ghost, Xu Tui was able to block the attack with his mental perception.
In the next moment, an afterimage appeared on Chi Hongying’s wrist.
Bang!
The energy field exploded when her fist hit it. It cracked Xu Tui’s energy field defense. However, almost at the same time, the energy field in his dantian was replenished continuously. It forcefully caught the fist that had just pierced into Xu Tui’s clothes.
Chi Hongying already understood what Xu Tui wanted to do.
The attacks were even more ferocious. They were all aimed at Xu Tui’s vital points. From time to time, she would unleash energy attacks. However, she still could not hurt Xu Tui at all.
“Be careful!”
Chi Hongying let out a low shout. Her fist instantly turned into a phantom. Xu Tui’s energy field instantly met it.
At the moment of contact, Chi Hongying’s fist spike began to vibrate at a high frequency as if an electric motor had been installed.
In the high-frequency vibration, Chi Hongying’s fist spike was like a red-hot knife that had been stabbed into hot oil. Xu Tui’s energy field, which was used as a defense, was easily broken through.
In an instant, 20% of the energy field in Xu Tui’s dantian was used. However, it could not block Chi Hongying’s high-frequency vibrations.
The fist spike pierced through the armor on Xu Tui’s chest as if there was no barrier there. It was about to pierce into his chest.
His mind power suddenly exploded.
Chi Hongying let out a blood-curdling scream as her fist spike left her hand. Her fingers trembled, but she did not fall to the ground. Instead, she stared at Xu Tui.
“How powerful is this mental whip?”
“An ordinary one.”
“How did it become so strong?”
“It should be because my mind power has increased recently,” Xu Tui said.
“Sister-in-law, why was your energy field so powerful just now? Why couldn’t my energy field block it?” Xu Tui asked.
“This is an energy field technique derived from a high-frequency ion shock blade. Not only does it require the activation of two related genetic ability chains, but it also requires a long period of training to master an energy field technique. It is extremely offensive!
“Our Extreme Academy called it the Energy Vibration Style. You need to train hard to master it. When you reach a powerful level, you can use it even without a saber!” Chi Hongying said.
“Indeed. My energy field defense is like paper in front of this Energy Vibrating Saber,” Xu Tui said.
“Are there many people who have mastered this ability?” Xu Tui suddenly asked.
“There aren’t many. There won’t be more than ten second-year students because this takes a lot of effort!” After saying that, Chi Hongying suddenly picked up her fist spikes.
“Again!”
“Alright!”
In the next moment, Xu Tui and Chi Hongying fought again. The sounds of explosions rang out continuously.
Chai Xiao was extremely depressed. He had been ignored and forgotten. Why did Xu Tui not ask him to test out his moves? d.a.m.n it, he blatantly despised his combat strength.
Chai Xiao felt that he had to think of a way to teach Xu Tui a lesson that he would never forget. However, before he could think of a move…
The moment Chi Hongying injured Xu Tui for the third time, she was whipped to the ground by Xu Tui for the third time.
This time, he seemed to have whipped her a little too hard. She fell to the ground and panted in pain. She just could not get up.
In an instant, Chai Xiao knew that his chance had come again.
“Good brother!”
Chai Xiao only dared to show Xu Tui the shape of his mouth before he went to hug Chi Hongying. Although Chai Xiao’s relationship with Chi Hongying had improved after the incident at the hospital, he still did not have many chances to hold her in his arms.
Xu Tui had created another opportunity for Chai Xiao. As for Xu Tui’s disdain for him just now, Chai Xiao had already thrown it out of his mind.
There was no need to teach him a lesson! If there was, he would let such disdain come more often.
“Hongying, I’ll carry you to rest. Then, I’ll do a head spa for you to recover!”
Chai Xiao picked up Chi Hongying and made a series of gestures at Xu Tui before leaving.
Xu Tui understood the meaning of his mouth.
“It’ll be considered one of your meals!”
“Stingy!”
Xu Tui did not have as many reservations as Chai Xiao. He simply gave Chai Xiao a word. Chai Xiao immediately quickened his pace.
After Chai Xiao and Chi Hongying left, Xu Tui did not leave the training room immediately. Instead, he sat on the ground and began to think.
Xu Tui had a total of 18 Genetic Base Points in the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Genetic Chain. He had completed the cultivation of the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Genetic Chain three days ago. It had to be said that the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Genetic Chain of the Genetic Ancient Martial Art was very magical.
The moment he activated it, an energy field was deployed.
The faster Xu Tui’s reaction speed was, the faster the energy field in his dantian could run. It could instantly form an energy field defense.
That was why Xu Tui had asked Chi Hongying for a test.
All in all, the energy field defense was quite good. It was still very effective against ordinary attacks or group attacks. However, if he encountered a powerful attack, such as Chi Hongying’s Energy Vibrating Saber, it would not be enough. Moreover, resisting the Energy Vibrating Saber consumed a lot of energy.
After only three clashes, the energy field power in Xu Tui’s dantian was almost empty. This consumption rate was much faster than mind power.
He had to cultivate the Vajra Tide Force Field and speed up the cultivation of the Vajra Tide Force Field to form a powerful close-range defense.
At the current stage, he could defend against most fatal attacks with his energy field and mental shield. However, at the same time, he had to cultivate diligently to strengthen his energy field power.
This was Xu Tui’s second problem.
There were also strong and weak energy fields. He had to cultivate the Lesser Heavenly Cycle diligently in order to continuously acc.u.mulate the energy field power in his dantian. At the same time, he could not recover his energy field power after taking the Energy Restoration Elixir.
He had to constantly carry out the Lesser Heavenly Cycle to quickly recover his energy field power.
However, what was different from mind power was that as long as the Lesser Heavenly Cycle was activated, even if he did not actively carry out the Lesser Heavenly Cycle, the energy field power in his dantian would recover at a basic speed as long as it was consumed.
It was unlike mind power, which could only be recovered after being consumed.
“In that case, I’ll have to add another cultivation project in the near future. I’ll have to train 30 minutes of Lesser Heavenly Cycle every day. Then, I will continue to cultivate the genetic base points of the first level of the Vajra Tide Force Field.”
In reality, Xu Tui was already cultivating the Genetic Base Points of the Vajra Tide Force Field.
There were a total of 21 genetic base points that he needed to activate for the Vajra Tide Force Field for the first time. However, six of them were the genetic base points of the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Genetic Chain. Therefore, Xu Tui only needed to activate 15 genetic base points to complete the first level of the Vajra Tide Force Field.
He had already activated three genetic base points.
The activation speed would slow down in the later stages, but with Xu Tui’s speed, it should not be slow. Once he mastered the first level of the Vajra Tide Force Field, Xu Tui would have a certain degree of life-saving power.
“Whew!”
Xu Tui, who had thought things through, took a deep breath but did not get up. There was still half an hour before six o’clock. He might as well cultivate here for half an hour before going to eat from time to time. He could also send food to An Xiaoxue.
However, just as Xu Tui was about to cultivate, his phone suddenly rang.
Wen Shao.
It was a call from Wen Shao.
Xu Tui frowned. Why did Wen Shao suddenly call him? He thought about it but could not think of an answer. He picked up the phone.
“Xu Tui, if you have time, come to my office now. I have something to announce to you.” After saying that, Wen Shao hung up the phone.
Xu Tui furrowed his brows. Why did he sense an inexplicable malice in Wen Shao’s words? What was Wen Shao trying to do?
