Chapter 1008: Chapter 48: All for the Greater Good
From the hardware standpoint alone, there is actually no problem with Xie Ruoxi’s crossing tribulation.
The core of crossing tribulation lies in how to sustain it. Coincidentally, in other aspects, Xie Ruoxi is not very competent, but her greatest advantage is having enough True Yuan.
Taking into account that Thunder thod belongs to single-target spells, it originally might have so shortcomings in terms of cost-effectiveness. However, with the developnt of Ye Jun’s splitting scattershot formation, this sole problem has been eliminated, so Xie Ruoxi essentially possesses the ability to cross tribulation.
In other words, the only thing that will influence her success or failure in crossing tribulation is her state of performance.
Even students who perform exceptionally well under normal conditions can perform disastrously under the pressure of the final exam. Furthermore, Xie Ruoxi’s timidity has almost beco a stereotype about her. No one can guarantee she won’t make so extrely silly mistakes under the heavenly tribulation, which could ruin a promising situation completely.
Yan Yu initially considered designing an extrely detailed strategy for Ruoxi, trying to include various possible scenarios. At that ti, even if she faces heavenly tribulation and loses her composure, without the ability to think for herself, she could still follow the plan from mory.
But thinking it through, wasn’t that how they helped Zhao Yuanzhen before? As a result, when encountering the splitting tribulation lightning on the spot, there were communication issues with forced command, and they ultimately had to let her perform by herself.
Although Xie Ruoxi’s True Yuan is sufficient, her personality is similar to the Enchantress, belonging to a naive and simple type. Even if you force her to morize the plan entirely, wouldn’t she still end up failing when the ti cos?
Thinking about this, Yan Yu understood.
No matter how fast a cheetah can run, she wouldn’t be able to swim faster than a fish. The most suitable is the best.
However, he had just instructed her in detail on what to do, and now changing his advice to let her freely perform would seem inconsistent, even like slapping his own face.
He needed a plausible excuse to smooth this over.
“Wait until the tribulation lightning drops to 600 ters before striking.” Xie Ruoxi was still murmur-rembering, trying hard to morize, “If one strike isn’t enough, then strike again…”
“It’s quite tough for you to morize this way.” Yan Yu suddenly asked, “What if you get nervous and forget it at that ti?”
“Huh?” Xie Ruoxi was taken aback, obviously lacking the confidence to say she absolutely wouldn’t forget, suddenly had a bright idea and said, “Right! No need to morize, I can write it on my palm and look at it if I forget!”
Yan Yu: ……..
“That’s why you’re the captain, you’re really smart!” Xie Ruoxi smiled and hugged his neck, pecked him on the mouth, then turned to find a pen but was held back by Yan Yu.
“Wait a minute.” He reminded, “Although you wait until the tribulation lightning drops to 600 ters before striking, can you accurately judge the height of the tribulation lightning at that ti?”
Xie Ruoxi blinked her eyes and suddenly realized:
“Right! How can I judge?”
She looked at Yan Yu eagerly, with an expression seemingly saying “Hurry up and tell the answer.”
“It’s actually quite simple.” Yan Yu said calmly, “If it’s above 600 ters, the Thunder thod will split too widely into a thunder net, and might miss the tribulation lightning, right?”
“Right.” Xie Ruoxi said.
“So,” Yan Yu instructed, “upon seeing tribulation lightning descending, you can preliminarily strike one Thunder thod. If the thunder net goes out and misses the tribulation lightning, it ans the current height of the tribulation lightning is too high.”
“Oh!” Xie Ruoxi’s eyes lit up, “I understand! Conversely, if it doesn’t miss, it ans the height is just right or already low!”
“In that case, you can continue to strike Thunder thod.” Yan Yu smiled, “Until the thunder net goes out and misses the tribulation lightning, then you can stop and wait a while, anwhile refining the dicine power, recovering True Yuan. There’s no need to worry about the missed tribulation lightning, strike it together later. The lower the height drops, the less likely you will miss it next ti.”
Undoubtedly, compared to instructions like “wait until the tribulation lightning drops to 600 ters before striking” which requires precise distance judgnt, the advice “if tribulation lightning is missed, take a break; if it isn’t missed, keep striking” is much more understandable and morable for Xie Ruoxi.
In simple terms, Xie Ruoxi’s mindset, even for learning cooking, teaching her “how much salt to add based on how much water” wouldn’t register; it would be easier to tell her “taste it yourself, add salt if it’s bland.”
No need to morize specific numbers, Xie Ruoxi clearly breathed a sigh of relief, then said with a dry laugh:
“I’ve morized it, but thinking about crossing tribulation later, I’m still a bit nervous, what should I do?”
“You can do a few deep breaths.” Yan Yu suggested.
Xie Ruoxi straightened her chest, took a deep breath, then exhaled forcefully.
A mont later, she suddenly fell backwards, shouting:
“I feel dizzy! Dizzy!”
Why had she ended up with respiratory alkalosis… Yan Yu found himself speechless, hurriedly helped her sit up, patted her chest, and relieved her breath.
“Captain!” Xie Ruoxi tearfully said, looking pitiful, “What should I do, I’m still so nervous!”
“Nervousness is inevitable.” Yan Yu comforted her, “I was the first to cross tribulation back then, no one knew how dangerous heavenly tribulation was. I was very nervous too. Didn’t I still get through it easily?”
“Captain, you weren’t so relaxed back then.” Xie Ruoxi argued, “You ran out of tribulation resources and True Yuan, already reached a desperate state, almost dying!”
Yan Yu certainly wouldn’t admit he had almost died back then, so she wouldn’t feel more scared. So he stubbornly said:
“With my style, how could I not anticipate such a situation in advance? Everything was under my control, alright?”
