Chapter 20 - Practical Combat Class

Hearing this, Qian Renxue nodded. She also felt that Xu Yang's Spirit was a mutation. Then the two of them continued to chat, mostly Qian Renxue talking and Xu Yang listening, occasionally replying with a word or two.

Ning Fengzhi, who was beside them, smiled as he watched the two getting along harmoniously.

The lesson time for Qian Renxue was only one morning, and it ended quickly.

"Senior Brother, you can come to Heaven Dou City to find me when you have time. I will definitely treat you well!" At the gate of the palace, Qian Renxue held Xu Yang's hand and said enthusiastically.

"Okay, don't worry, Junior Brother, I will come to Heaven Dou City to play with you when I have time!" Xu Yang also held Qian Renxue's hand, promising with a smile on his face.

"Then it's settled!"

After speaking, Qian Renxue forcefully pulled her delicate hand from Xu Yang's hand, seriously suspecting that the person in front of her might be gay, and didn't realize that Xu Yang had already discovered her identity.

After Xu Yang and Ning Fengzhi left, Qian Renxue turned around and returned to her Honghe Palace. She had just started playing Xue Qinghe, and there were still many things to deal with, the most important thing was to prevent Emperor Xue Ye and others from seeing any flaws, and also to find a way to get rid of Xue Qinghe's two brothers who posed a threat to her.

...

On the other side, Xu Yang, who had returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, returned to his regular life.

Every day, he cultivated and cultivated, basically not leaving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Occasionally, he would go to class with Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue, and the relationship between the two became much better because of this, but they still couldn't confide in each other.

Because of the Spirit resonance with Qian Renxue, Xu Yang felt a sense of urgency in his heart, and he cultivated even harder.

As more and more Sun Flowers were planted, the cultivation environment became better and better, and the blessing to the cultivation speed became more obvious, increasing the speed by about five percent. Don't underestimate this five percent, this is Xu Yang's capital to widen the distance from others.

He had also practiced the basics of swordsmanship almost enough, and began to conduct Practical Combat Class with Ning Haiyan.

This evening, after Xu Yang finished his physical training, he used a few shots of 'Morning Light' on himself to repair any possible hidden injuries, and then came to the training ground.

Ning Haiyan was already waiting here. After seeing Xu Yang coming, he threw the Wooden Sword in his hand over.

"Young Master, are you really sure you want to conduct Practical Combat Class?!"

As soon as Xu Yang caught the Wooden Sword, he heard Ning Haiyan's question. He smiled and said seriously: "Of course, Practical Combat Class can cultivate strength. I don't want to have only cultivation without combat power in the future!"

"Then are you ready to be beaten?!"

"Huh?!"

Xu Yang was a little dazed. Just as he reacted, a Wooden Sword had already reached his eyes and directly struck his shoulder. Immediately, he felt his entire right arm go numb, and the Wooden Sword in his hand fell to the ground with a 'bang'.

"The first key to Practical Combat Class is that if you want to fight, you must first learn to be beaten. Familiarize yourself with various attacks, be able to remain calm in any situation, not be flustered, know how to deal with it, and apply what you have learned to Practical Combat Class!"

Xu Yang looked at Ning Haiyan with a smile on his lips, seriously suspecting that this guy was doing it on purpose.

Rolling his eyes unhappily, Xu Yang mobilized his Soul Power in his right arm to remove the numbness, then picked up the Sword on the ground again and shouted: "Come again!"

Saying that, he raised his Sword and rushed up.

He didn't refute, nor did he say that he didn't prepare well.

Having lived two lives, he only remembered that he seemed to have had a few fights at school when he was a child in his previous life, but basically he had never fought with anyone. In this life, he only consciously exercised and learned theoretical knowledge, and had never done anything.

Although he has been practicing Swordsmanship and archery these days, he is only practicing and has not used these Swordsmanship in Practical Combat Class.

Next!

"Bang!"

"Again!"

"Bang!"

"Again!"

"Bang!"

"Again!"

...

Even though Ning Haiyan controlled his Soul Power to be roughly equal to Xu Yang's, Xu Yang was basically just taking a beating. His swordsmanship was mostly wild flailing, not applying anything he had learned during this time to the fight.

This kind of response had no effect on Ning Haiyan at all; it was like children playing house, easily broken through.

Ning Haiyan's Sword was too fast, too heavy, and too ruthless.

Decades of combat had not only made Ning Haiyan's combat experience skyrocket, but his swordsmanship had also been honed to a terrifying level. These were all things Xu Yang needed to learn.

Two hours later, Xu Yang's screams echoed incessantly until he barely learned to apply his swordsmanship and lay on the ground with a bruised face. Only then did Ning Haiyan stop and sit down next to Xu Yang.

"Young Master, how do you feel?!"

"Practical Combat Class is just that, Practical Combat Class. Pure practice isn't enough. I have too many problems!"

Recalling the battle just now in his mind, he clearly saw Ning Haiyan's Sword trajectory every time, and he had ideas on how to respond in his mind, but his hands just couldn't keep up.

Typical brain: I got this!

Hands: No, you don't!

"Actually, Young Master, you're a little too concerned about my reminders and the length of the Wooden Sword in your hand. The theory that 'an inch longer, an inch stronger' is very practical in the army. Most people in the army are ordinary people, and they don't have Soul Power, so using long weapons like spears is more advantageous. But this theory is reversed for Soul Masters. Soul Power can achieve ranged attacks, and the advantage of that little bit of extra attack distance from long-handled weapons will instantly disappear. Instead, because the weapon is too long, it's difficult to change moves, and the opponent will seize the opportunity." Ning Haiyan pointed out Xu Yang's biggest problem.

Ning Haiyan was nearly two meters tall, and his arms were even more slender. In addition, the Wooden Sword he held was also larger than Xu Yang's, so his attack range was much larger than Xu Yang's every time. This was also the reason why Xu Yang kept staring at his hand and Wooden Sword during the battle.

"I understand! What I should grasp is not the length of the weapon, but the distance between the two of us. I should always control this distance in a position that is favorable to me. For example, when we were fighting just now, if I were to fight close to you, I wouldn't be able to let you use your wide-open attacks as you please, and I could also take advantage of my strengths!" Xu Yang thought for a moment and understood Ning Haiyan's meaning.

"That's right!" Ning Haiyan was very satisfied.

"Then Uncle Ning, let's continue tomorrow!"

Looking at the sky, Xu Yang gave himself a few more shots of 'Morning Light', healed the injuries on his body, greeted Ning Haiyan, and dragged his tired body back to his room.

...

In the blink of an eye, another eight months passed, and Xu Yang's Soul Power finally reached level twenty. His swordsmanship had also improved by leaps and bounds. According to Ning Haiyan, he already had the power to fight among Soul Masters.

During this period, there was occasionally another task, which was babysitting.

That's right, babysitting.

Whenever Ning Fengzhi and his wife and the Sword and Bone Douluo were busy, Ning Rongrong was handed over to Xu Yang to take care of, which made him very helpless.
