622: Chapter 282 Try to Relax as Much as Possible_2 622: Chapter 282 Try to Relax as Much as Possible_2 His scalp suddenly tightened, and a strong sense of oppression quickly enveloped him like the stifling air before a storm.
A thought to “dodge” erged in his subconscious, but his body reacted faster than his consciousness.
It seed as if his body resonated, producing a sky-blue vapor similar to the atmospheric pressure.
In the very next mont, just before Boss’s strike hit, Lin Yi’s body abruptly moved to the side and backward at the sa ti.
Just like that, Lin Yi dodged Boss’s palm strike.
However, to his surprise, even though Boss missed his strike, the intense power of it exploded in the air like a bomb, still forcing Lin Yi back.
“Boss, you…?!”
Lin Yi stumbled and almost fell to the ground, looking at Boss with unsettled shock.
Boss furrowed his brow, deep in thought and did not respond to Lin Yi’s astonishnt.
Li Huiyuan was also very puzzled.
The scene just now, from Lin Yi’s perspective, was as described.
But in the eyes of Boss and Li Huiyuan, it was sothing else entirely—
Boss’s attack was without any delay, executed swiftly, like a lightning-fast slap.
Yet, just as Boss was about to hit Lin Yi, Lin Yi’s body suddenly flickered to the side, like the Asura Flash Space, leaving behind a faint afterimage with a sky-blue vapor!
Just like that, he perfectly dodged Boss’s palm strike.
This ghostly instant acceleration dumbfounded Li Huiyuan.
But Lin Yi, on the other hand, seed unaware of what he had done.
So he stood there, sowhat dazed.
Soon, Boss’s brow relaxed: “I think I understand now…”
“Ah?” Lin Yi was still confused.
Boss looked at Lin Yi and in Li Huiyuan’s equally perplexed gaze, said, “I was sowhat confused about how you managed to evade the Rage Angel’s pursuit…”
“Now it seems, you must have used a similar thod to what just happened.”
“‘Just now’…?” Lin Yi didn’t speak but seed thoughtful.
During the chase by the Rage Angel, he didn’t feel anything particular, rely fleeing desperately.
The only impression he had was that each ti the Rage Angel got close to him, under the high tension of his spirit, he would sohow squeeze out so more strength—perhaps adrenaline or sothing like that—pushing his nearly drained body to continue running forward…
As for anything else, he wasn’t very clear about it.
But it’s worth ntioning that although he felt almost out of energy several tis while fleeing, when he reached the Gymnasium, he didn’t feel very tired, which was strange.
But he only noticed it now.
“So Boss, what exactly is my ‘thod from just now’?” Lin Yi also wanted to know the answer.
A complex and odd glimr flashed through Boss’s eyes: “You might consider it a kind of ‘High-Order Perception.'”
“‘High-Order Perception’?” Both Lin Yi and Li Huiyuan voiced their curiosity in unison.
But Lin Yi quickly fell silent…
It didn’t sound like sothing he should possess.
Could it be a new change brought by Maozi?
“What’s ‘High-Order Perception’?” asked Li Huiyuan, not understanding.
Boss explained calmly: “You know the concept of ‘Perception’ according to the rules?”
Li Huiyuan nodded her head.
Lin Yi shook his head.
“I wasn’t asking you,” Boss glanced at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi hurriedly pursed his lips and hung his head, though he did know ordinary ‘Perception’, isn’t it just what the Art Departnt talks about?
Boss continued: “‘High-Order Perception’ is a step further than ‘Perception’, overall it’s more inclusive, more sensitive, more responsive…”
“You can think of it as what we often refer to as ‘the sixth sense’…”
“Before we could land our attack on Lin Yi, he utilized High-Order Perception to capture and predict our attack trajectory, and driven by the ‘seek benefits and avoid harms’ instinct embedded in everyone’s subconscious, his body maneuvered to dodge the attack.”
“Just like how you’d subconsciously dodge a ball flying towards you.”
“The combination of ‘High-Order Perception’ and ‘Instinct’ resulted in the effect Lin Yi just displayed.”
Boss’s explanation went from profound to simple, becoming more straightforward as she spoke, leaving both listeners with a look of sudden realization.
“However, a trait like ‘High-Order Perception’ is extrely rare among Polluters, and even when it does appear, it’s usually among students inclined towards the Art Departnt…”
“Even if those from the Athletic Departnt could master so, but…” Boss glanced up and down at Lin Yi, “it’s not sothing you could possess at your current stage.”
This Lin Yi had indeed heard of; the Athletic Departnt focuses more on utilizing Supernatural Power to enhance physical attributes, while the Art Departnt is more about leveraging Supernatural Power to boost ntal attributes.
Like fighting spirit and magic.
“It seems it really was the change Maozi brought …” Lin Yi narrowed his eyes; while he felt relieved, he also had so unpleasant premonitions…
“Maozi must have encountered sothing; if ‘High-Order Perception’ were a talent, it would have manifested in him long ago.”
“The only explanation for its late ergence is that Maozi has encountered so kind of ‘opportunity’ again…”
But it was unclear whether this opportunity was good or bad…
Lin Yi rembered very clearly that during the last Phantom Vision, Maozi was desperately fleeing down the staircase!
Surrounded by a swarm of Art Students, just a wall away lay who knows how many of the Sneering Angels, where any carelessness could result in fatal danger.
At this mont, Boss’s voice brought Lin Yi’s thoughts back: “But this is very unreasonable…”
“Why would the characteristics of the Art Departnt show up in you?”
Boss scrutinized Lin Yi, a rare trace of confusion surfacing in her cool eyes.
She looked at Lin Yi and inquired, “When did you co into contact with Art Students?”
“Are you hiding sothing from ?”
A cluster of bright golden flas slowly ignited in Boss’s eyes.
That fla rose and flickered, at tis as cold as the full moon on a deep autumn night, and at tis as intense as the midday sun in the peak of sumr, both dazzling and chilling, as if it could drill through to the deepest secrets buried within his heart…
secrets that he himself might not even be aware of.
“I…” Under such a gaze, most people’s minds would go blank, but Lin Yi still had his wits about him.
He wanted to argue his case, yet he couldn’t utter a single word, showing a troubled expression and stamring without producing a sound.
Finally, Boss withdrew her gaze and exhaled softly, “Everyone has their secrets.”
Lin Yi’s pressure diminished dramatically, and he relaxed…
Boss continued, “When you want to talk about it, you can tell ; continue with the training.”
“But Boss…
I can’t hit him!” Li Huiyuan expressed her discomfort.
“I can try to restrain myself a little…” Lin Yi said.
“No need…” Boss interrupted coldly, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure he gets hurt first…
There are several ways to recover from training; in special circumstances, extre asures must be used.”
A bad premonition suddenly rose in Lin Yi’s mind.
“Lin Yi, you try to…” Boss began in a subdued tone.
“Boss, I’m ready…” Lin Yi took a deep breath, knowing that Boss was going to say, “try to brace yourself,” so he set his gaze firmly, his energy sinking to his dantian.
Hoping only that Boss’s next move…
wouldn’t be too painful.
“What I an is, Lin Yi, try to relax a bit…
it won’t hurt as much.”
“Huh?”
Before the words were entirely out, Boss had already struck with lightning speed.
That sensation akin to being struck by lightning imdiately returned to Lin Yi, he felt the surrounding light dim once more, that cool sensation reappeared, and Boss’s movents once again slowed down in his view…
Yet, Lin Yi’s scalp tingled unbearably, an unprecedented sense of terror enveloped him like dark clouds, a strong premonition of crisis that even the Rage Angels had never instilled in him!
