In a Martial World High, There’s a Mystical Great World – Chapter 45

Chapter 45: An Yiyi’s Strength

It is very obvious that for an Innate-level teacher, the most valuable thing is the demonstration of Martial Path Intents.

The so-called Martial Path Intent training devices are just virtual simulations of real-person demonstrations.

Even those can have a huge effect, let alone an Innate Realm expert demonstrating in person?

Shen Xing followed Teacher Lin to the corner. Before he could even stand still, he saw Teacher Lin suddenly turn around and kick towards his neck. In an instant, Yuan Qi surged, and a phantom of a giant axe appeared, accompanied by a howling gale, creating an astonishing momentum.

In that instant, Shen Xing also experienced what Situ Cheng had felt earlier. He even felt as if his neck had been cleaved by an axe, and his head was flying off.

But ultimately, nothing happened.

That kick disappeared without a trace before it even touched him. Only the still-raging gale confirmed that everything just now was not an illusion.

And Shen Xing’s eyes grew brighter and brighter, and he couldn’t help but reveal a look of joy on his face.

“Leg Axe!”

He suddenly kicked forward. This time, the sharp whistling sound in the air was no longer the sound of a kick, but had the texture of a sharp blade cutting through the air.

Minor Completion!

And it wasn’t just that. Shen Xing felt that if he savored it a few more times, he could take another step forward.

The demonstration of an Innate Realm expert is indeed powerful!

“Not bad.” Teacher Lin even praised him directly this time, “There is a bloodthirst, even killing intent, in your moves. That’s how a martial artist should be. Either don’t strike, or when you do, be decisive and ruthless!”

“I just took advantage of tactics,” Shen Xing said modestly.

“Winning is winning. You lived, and the enemy died. No one cares how you won.” Teacher Lin shook his head, “There is a fierce tiger in your heart, and that’s good. There’s no need to suppress it. It’s indeed not easy to release it on the Academy Home Planet, but there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”

For a moment, Shen Xing didn’t know what to say.

After all, he had killed people.

It’s nonsense to judge whether someone has killed based on killing intent. As long as there is killing intent, anyone can have it.

But having killed someone, after all, made him a bit more ruthless than the other students.

It wouldn’t be good if he was really seen through.

But fortunately, Teacher Lin seemed to just offer a few words of encouragement and then left to continue observing the battles of others.

Shen Xing’s ranking also reached fifth in the class.

After seeing his Leg Axe reach Minor Completion with their own eyes, none of the other students challenged him again. This gap in strength was directly visible. Moreover, no one dared to compete with him in terms of technique or decisiveness.

For a moment, Shen Xing was actually free.

He thought about it and simply stood on the side alone, constantly practicing his Leg Axe.

By the time everyone had finished their matches, his ranking for the week was fixed at fifth.

“Student Shen.” An Yiyi walked over.

“Just call me Shen Xing,” Shen Xing said with a smile, “and I’ll call you Yiyi, is that too familiar?”

“It’s fine, just call me Yiyi.” An Yiyi didn’t care much about the address. She just extended an invitation with a sense of eagerness, “Do you want to spar? It’s not a challenge, just a friendly exchange.”

“Huh?” Shen Xing was stunned, then readily agreed, “Sure, it’s a good opportunity to see the strength of the third-ranked student.”

No one challenged An Yiyi today, so her strength was a complete mystery, but just the fact that no one challenged her was enough to show something.

She was definitely not weak.

By now, many students had already left, but seeing that the two seemed to be planning to spar, some of the students who were about to leave stopped and decided to watch.

“Student An Yiyi, seems to be very familiar with this Student Shen Xing?”

“They must have known each other for a long time.”

“What’s so strange about geniuses knowing each other.”

“Could this Shen Xing also be from that place?”

“Who knows.”

◈◈◈

“. . .”

The faint conversations from the side did not affect the two of them. After they stood in their respective positions, their auras had already changed.

Especially An Yiyi.

Normally, An Yiyi gave people a rather cold feeling, but after getting to know her, she was actually quite friendly, with many small expressions on her face.

But at this moment, she carried a sense of solemnity.

Just by looking at her eyes, Shen Xing knew that she already regarded him as a real opponent.

The two seemed to have an unspoken understanding. They didn’t even speak, but they attacked at the same time.

Bang bang!

Their legs collided, and sharp explosions sounded in the air!

Shen Xing’s expression changed slightly. An Yiyi was also using the Leg Axe! And it had clearly reached Minor Completion!

But after being forced back half a step, he became even more excited.

He had realized that the collision of the same Martial Path Intent would bring a clearer understanding!

No wonder An Yiyi invited him to spar.

“Again!”

With the whistling sound of the Leg Axe, Shen Xing’s fighting spirit became more and more excited, and the speed of his kicks became faster and faster! Each kick was executed with full force, and even the surrounding air became chaotic. The ground even showed many clear marks.

An Yiyi’s expression did not change, but her speed was also constantly increasing. She was so fast that she almost gave people a sense of being suspended in the air. Her legs had completely transformed into constantly swinging heavy axes. For a time, the training room was filled with the sound of impacts!

The powerful strength and speed of the two were enough to stir the air.

Many of the watching students gulped, amazed.

But soon, Shen Xing fell into a disadvantage.

Although An Yiyi was a girl and her innate strength was somewhat insufficient, her realm was ultimately higher, and her speed advantage was more obvious. When only using the Leg Axe, and the level was not much different, Shen Xing’s other shortcomings were more prominent.

However, his newly-achieved Minor Completion Leg Axe was also rapidly consolidating in this process, and even faintly increasing.

Until after a certain strike, An Yiyi suddenly retreated.

“That’s enough.”

Her face was slightly red, and there was a lot of sweat on her forehead. It could be seen that she had consumed a lot of stamina.

But more importantly, she had personally felt Shen Xing’s speed of progress.

“You are really amazing.” She looked at Shen Xing and couldn’t help but exclaim, “In terms of talent in the Leg Axe, I can’t compare to you at all.”

“Perhaps, I am indeed more suitable for the Leg Axe.” Shen Xing smiled, “And you haven’t used your other Martial Path Intents.”

He didn’t believe that An Yiyi only knew the Leg Axe.

Just now, it was more like practice than a competition.

“Yes, but sparring with the same Martial Path Intent can bring more gains.” An Yiyi did not deny it, but invited, “We can train together next time. It’s faster than practicing alone.”

“Okay!” Shen Xing had already realized this and agreed without hesitation.

Compared with this progress, wasting a little time on the road was nothing.

If only they could live closer, it would be even better.

I’ll ask her where she lives later.

For a moment, Shen Xing was even a little reluctant to stop sparring.
