Chapter 1017: Revised: Chapter 54 Ningning’s Brand New Swordsmanship
Yunjin is actually a soft girl.
Although she occasionally shows ntal pressure, her body is really weak and collapses easily.
She seems to have similar combat power to Ruoxi, but that’s completely not the case. Little Ruoxi is clumsy, loves to play, and is very sensitive; a little bullying would make her beg for rcy. Yunjin, on the other hand, is more concerned with Yan Yu’s feelings rather than her own experience.
Of course, her gentle, detailed, and considerate personality does make her suitable to be a mother.
But Yan Yu hasn’t lied to her. With the enemy defeated, he thinks there’s no family to return to. He has no plans for marriage and children yet, and can only temporarily wrong this girl who loves him.
Sigh, I have sacrificed too much for the country and the people. It’s best not to ntion it!
Half an hour later, the two held each other while lying on the bed. Yunjin picked up the thermos from the bedside table and handed it to Yan Yu, saying:
“I made you so tea.”
Look at that, this is what being considerate ans! Zhao Yuanzhen might never learn this.
Yan Yu took the cup from her and drank a mouthful of the warm, fragrant tea, feeling that the large amount of water he lost earlier was replenished.
“What kind of flower tea is this?” He tasted the flavor in his mouth. “The taste is quite unique.”
“I grew and blended it myself.” Yunjin showed a gentle smile. “So of the ingredients are rare spirit grass not found in the market.”
“You can grow spirit grass?” Yan Yu asked in surprise.
“Tried many tis.” Su Yunjin replied. “I also consulted with Mr. i, but in the end, only two or three plants survived.”
“That’s still quite impressive.” Yan Yu thought, does Secretary Su also have a talent for herbal dicine? She shouldn’t be like Ye Jun, whose talent was buried by the team.
Of course, compared to her ability to grow spirit grass, Yan Yu was more concerned about another piece of news she revealed:
“You’re quite familiar with Mr. i?”
“Sort of.” Su Yunjin explained. “She is quite proficient in academic aspects. After hearing about my interest in growing spirit grass, we occasionally discussed and explored it together.”
So it’s purely an academic fellowship.
Why does it seem that Mr. i knows a bit about everything? Was she really a Sword Immortal before she crossed over?
While talking, Yan Yu suddenly felt a bit excited again. He gently ran his fingers through her beautiful, soft hair and asked:
“By the way, how long are your parents staying this ti? Are they waiting for your Crossing Tribulation?”
“Of course not.” Su Yunjin adjusted her posture cooperatively. “The date for Crossing Tribulation is strictly confidential. They can’t know about it. Hmm… I’ll ask them later.”
Yan Yu spent another half hour being intimate with her before leaving reluctantly, with Yunjin seeing him off unwillingly.
He ca back this ti mainly to check on Yunjin’s mindset about Crossing Tribulation. Seeing her psychological state stable as ever, he felt relieved knowing she could face the Heavenly Tribulation in the best condition.
Definitely, it wasn’t just for personal attachnt.
There was still so ti before Yunjin’s Crossing Tribulation, and Yan Yu didn’t plan to go back to work imdiately, so he wandered around the base.
By the way, where did Chen Lingyun go?
Zhao Yuanzhen and Xie Ruoxi went to eat, Su Yunjin was in her room, and Chen Lingyun was nowhere to be seen. Hence, Yan Yu sent a ssage to Lin Ning to ask about her whereabouts.
Lin Ning replied, saying she was practicing swordsmanship in the underground training hall.
This was surprising. Without my guidance, what are you blindly practicing there alone?
Yan Yu ca to the base’s underground training hall and saw Lin Ning and Li Minghu sparring with swordsmanship against each other.
Li Minghu’s swordsmanship remained agile and elegant. The Valkyrie’s thoughts were ticulous, keeping her defensive line tight while waiting for any flaw in Lin Ning’s swordsmanship to instantly exploit and deliver a decisive strike, a standard strategy of late action winning.
Lin Ning feared this strategy the most because her strength lies in reaction speed and super-fast continuous attacks. If Li Minghu defended deadlocked, she couldn’t break through, making it difficult to change tactics later.
After all, strengths always co with weaknesses. For soone whose hands are faster than their mind, thinking before attacking is quite challenging.
Hmm?
Yan Yu suddenly noticed, to his shock, that Li Minghu’s defensive line seed to be collapsing!
Not that her swordsmanship defense had flaws, but Lin Ning’s swordsmanship details… were becoming incomprehensible.
Swordsmanship details, like the choice of fonts while writing, depending on what sword technique the Sword Immortal cultivates. For instance, most Sword Immortals in Lu Country are practicing the textbook version of the Sword Control Technique provided by i Yingxue, specifically the Swordsmanship Compendium of Ei Sword Sect.
Lin Ning’s situation was special because of previous corresponding gains. Under Yan Yu’s guidance, she practiced the Kunlun Sword Art Compendium. Compared to the swift aggressive Ei Swordsmanship, Kunlun Swordsmanship emphasizes balanced offense and defense, allowing Ningning, who relies on reaction speed, not to be too offensively strong and defensively weak, flourishing in favorable situations but struggling in adverse ones.
But what Lin Ning was exhibiting now was neither the original Kunlun Sword Art nor Mr. i’s version of Ei Swordsmanship, but…
Hard to evaluate.
Any particular swordsmanship detail often had a specific design purpose. For instance, “Seeking curves within straight” increases the tolerance for subsequent changes; “Seeking straight within curves” shortens the sword path for quicker hits. Hence, Kunlun Sword Techniques often seek curves within straight, while Ei Sword Techniques seek straight within curves. New learners might subtly sense it after mastering, while experienced sword masters like Yan Yu could instantly know what improvents corresponding swordsmanship details would bring.
However, the swordsmanship details Lin Ning was showing couldn’t simply be described as “seeking curves within straight” or “seeking straight within curves,” more like “curves within straight, straight within curves, curves when steady, straight when fast,” or more exaggeratedly, “the wonder of transformation lies in one’s heart,” subtly hinting at a certain simplification of Sword Dao!
When did this proud Ning beco so powerful?
Yan Yu wanted to continue observing and learning. Such high-level, exquisite swordsmanship would benefit him greatly.
But Lin Ning soon noticed the captain’s presence, quickly stopped attacking, ran to Yan Yu’s side, and excitedly said:
“Captain, you’re finally back!”
“I’m here to check your preparations for Crossing Tribulation.” Yan Yu had already collected his surprised look, turning serious. “Your swordsmanship… is interesting. Where did you learn it?”
“Um.” Lin Ning hesitated, “I figured it out myself. Is that okay?”
“Yourself?” Yan Yu imdiately doubted, “Do you have that level?”
Lin Ning instantly got angry:
“Why can’t I? Ask Minghu!”
“I can testify.” Li Minghu smiled, “I’ve been practicing swords with Ningning. Initially, her swordsmanship was just an idea. We’ve gradually improved it through sparring and exchange.”
Yan Yu nodded. With Valkyrie’s help, it made sense.
Seeing the captain believed without questioning once Minghu was involved, Lin Ning, although silent, felt increasingly frustrated inside:
Damn Yan Yu, bad Yan Yu, hate you Yan Yu! Why don’t you believe I have this swordsmanship level while Minghu joins in, and you don’t doubt it?
“Because you indeed lack the swordsmanship expertise.” Jing Zhongxian transmitted sneered, “The things I’ve taught you, you don’t dare to learn. Shuai Minghu could see there were no problems at all, proving her vision and awareness surpasses you by far…
“Shut up!” Lin Ning shouted, “I still don’t know what your true form is, how can I trust you?”
“Why bother about my true form?” Jing Zhongxian laughed, “Let put it bluntly, you’re so weak I wouldn’t consider Body Seizing you. Look, the rest of your team has all ford their cores, Su Yunjin is about to Cross Tribulation, and Chen Lingyun is scheduled for the first round of the third batch — aren’t you still last?”
Lin Ning was hurt by her words, could only stare fiercely at Yan Yu, making him feel uneasy. He raised his hand in surrender, laughing:
“Just kidding. Your swordsmanship is really impressive. I initially worried you over depend on reaction speed for the first strike, limiting subsequent changes and handling unexpected complex situations poorly. Now it seems, your expertise and proficiency in Sword Control Technique exceed my expectations. Even facing the Heavenly Tribulation, you should be fine.”
Lin Ning instantly bead and asked:
“I can apply for Crossing Tribulation in the third round with Lingyun, right?”
“Of course.” Yan Yu answered, “What about Minghu?”
“I’m not in a hurry.” Li Minghu replied, “My physique is troubleso. Forced Crossing Tribulation might be dangerous. The leader already discussed with , wait for more Golden Core True Mans to appear, seek redies in the Mysterious Realm, resolve my physical issues thoroughly, then attempt Crossing Tribulation more safely.”
“Sounds reasonable.” Yan Yu sighed inwardly.
Crossing Tribulation emphasizes endurance, and Valkyrie’s physical problems might rapidly deteriorate, heavily limited by the Heavenly Tribulation. No choice there.
When possible, he must carefully sort through past mories to figure out which Mysterious Realm has Body reconstruction Secret Techniques to let Valkyrie Cross Tribulation sooner!
“Yan Yu,” Lin Ning urged, “Since you’re back, why not practice swords with us?”
“Why?” Yan Yu instantly grasped her intention, sneered, “Feeling you’ve developed new swordsmanship, battered wings, want to challenge the captain’s authority?”
“Humph!” Lin Ning wrinkled her nose, smiling, “Afraid you won’t dare?”
“Let’s go.” Yan Yu ford a sword technique with his hands, controlling Huang Tingjian and Liangyi Sword “Showing you both the strength of Golden Core Sword Immortal.”
“Only use Foundation Establishnt Realm True Yuan!” Lin Ning imdiately demanded, “We purely asure swordsmanship, otherwise it’s unfair!”
“And no using Liangyi Micro Dust Sword Qi.” Li Minghu smiled, “No relying on Flying Sword grade either.”
“We’ll both fight you.” Lin Ning added, “Point stop, no intentional bullying.”
“Why do you have so many demands?” Yan Yu said impatiently, “All agreed, you’ll lose anyway.”
Two little girls, just developed new swordsmanship, already cocky.
This ti, they’ll learn my swordsmanship level isn’t sothing they can challenge; given the chance later, they’ll experience another swordsmanship under , ensuring they kneel and beg for rcy!
