Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 770 - 31 If I Had Known, I Would Have Gone to Zhenhai Team_3
"I haven’t lost yet!"
Zhang Huaide, upon hearing this, disengaged from Sword-Human Unity and shook his head, saying,
"Captain Yan wants to train your ability to use magic treasures to construct defenses. Now that the defense line has been broken by me, there’s no point in dwelling on the final outcome. You should think about how to interrupt my attacks next time."
Zhao Yuanzhen gritted his teeth and couldn’t refute, cursing in his heart for a long while before bearing a grudge,
"Today, Zhang Huaide from Huofeng Team bullied me... No, Zhang Huaide is just the knife that wounded my dignity, isn’t the actual perpetrator that little thief? I’ll remember this enmity. If I catch an opportunity in the future, I’ll definitely get the other sisters to humiliate him!"
Thinking so, images began to form in his mind:
He saw himself sitting on the couch, watching as the girls took turns bullying Yan Yu, trampling his dignity underfoot mercilessly!
Yan Yu, unable to bear the humiliation, roared, "Zhao Yuanzhen! Don’t just hide and watch, come and fight me for three hundred rounds!"
Then, after finishing the chips in his hand, he crumpled the bag into a ball, threw it in the nearby trash can, and scoffed with crossed legs,
"What I need to train is your endurance! If you can’t even keep up with these few girls, there’s no point in persisting in fighting me. You’d better think about how to last longer against them."
Thus, the surrounding girls giggled and crowded around him, and one could only hear Yan Yu initially roaring, but soon turning into wails and finally into low moans, cries, and gasps, like a dying beast’s struggle.
Hmm hmm hmm hmm ha ha ha ha ha!
Seeing Zhao Yuanzhen suddenly zoning out and laughing, Zhang Huaide was somewhat speechless, but after all, he was a responsible man and placed himself in the sparring partner’s position. Therefore, he didn’t interrupt the "internal thoughts" of the Demonic Sect Enchantress.
Hou Qing and Meng Qingxi looked towards the fifth training field, where they saw Yan Yu and Lin Ning changing their sword techniques rapidly, four streams of sword light crisscrossing and flying, their clash of gold and iron incessant to the ears.
Because of Zhang Huaide’s prior instructions, they watched intently.
Meng Qingxi, as an Assistant Officer, with limited knowledge of swordsmanship confined to the textbook’s White Rainbow Across the Sky moves, couldn’t help but ask Hou Qing,
"How is it?"
Hou Qing frowned in concentration, taking a long time before replying,
"Awesome!"
"What is awesome?" Meng Qingxi immediately followed up.
"Dual Sword Control is freaking amazing!" Hou Qing, incredulous with admiration, exclaimed, "Multitasking! How do they do it? Damn, if I could also control two Flying Swords simultaneously, one for offense and one for defense, wouldn’t I be invincible? Hey, Old Meng, do you think there’s a chance we could swap Dual Sword Control Technique with the Zhendong Army?"
"Not very likely," Meng Qingxi said, "After the battle at Departure Palace ended, Deputy Captain Zhang immediately consulted with Captain Yan and then reported it to the Pingxi Army."
"What did they say?" Hou Qing asked.
"First, we definitely need to offer something good in exchange with the Zhendong Army," Meng Qingxi said. "Secondly, even though the Zhendong Army is willing to trade, the learning threshold is also very high. If we trade and then can’t learn it, it would be worse than not trading at all."
"How would we know whether we can learn it without trading?" Hou Qing immediately retorted, "Isn’t this logic a dead end?"
"It’s simple," Meng Qingxi said. "Forget about Captain Yan, if you had the skill level of Lin Ning, the higher-ups would probably be willing to trade."
Hearing this, Hou Qing fell silent. Me, fight Lin Ning? That’s utterly hopeless!
As everyone knows, among the Four Great Battle Teams, only the Huofeng Team doesn’t have a Sword Immortal at the core of their tactics. Although Hou Qing was later recruited to reinforce the team, his main role was to provide support, exploiting the inherent long-hand advantage of the Sword Immortal.
Hou Qing, who had joined the Huofeng Team, certainly had above-average strength as a Sword Immortal, but when compared to top-tier cultivators like Lin Ning, he was still far behind. Moreover, with the current composition of the Huofeng Team, which included Zhou Hongyu for all-out blasting, the Body Cultivating Cultivator Qin Meng for close combat, and Tang Xiaolian’s Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu for long-range sniping, there wasn’t much significance in reinforcing the Sword Immortal position.
Realizing this, Hou Qing gave up the idea and joked,
"If I had known, I might as well have gotten a sex change and joined the Zhenhai Team directly."
"Don’t go to the Zhenhai Team!" laughed Meng Qingxi, "Hou Zi, if you change your gender, treat us brothers first."
"Fear not, I’m afraid of being tackled by Mengzi."
