Chapter 755: Chapter 25 Hongyu Wants to Co Too_2 Chapter 755: Chapter 25 Hongyu Wants to Co Too_2 “`
Regarding this matter, everyone was actually a bit skeptical. After all, if Yan Yu really had such intentions, he could have already started embracing girls from both sides within the team or at the very least shown so ambiguous intentions to test everyone’s acceptance of the idea.
Instead, it was “You’re not worthy” and “She’s not worthy”. To be honest, that was super weird—it had a kind of ascetic aesthetic that was uninterested in the fairer sex.
“If he really wanted to find himself a harem, that would be much better,” Chen Lingyun said softly. “It’s better than him being obsessed with cultivation for a lifeti and shunning won.”
The girls all shivered a little, and their faces soured.
Chen Lingyun was right. If Yan Yu wanted a harem, then they only needed to decide whether to join or not; but if he shunned won, then they always felt there was still a chance, and they couldn’t help but continue to wait for him… But how long would that take?
Ti was the most torture. No one was willing to back out, but waiting was agonizing, especially as they approached thirty or forty years old. By that ti, youth and girlish dreams would have faded, and who would be willing to consider backing out then? Would all those years of waiting have been in vain? In short, it was a dilemma.
“So,” Xie Ruoxi tentatively asked, “our key issue now is not how to stop Tang Xiaolian from getting close to the captain but rather how to quickly change the captain’s ironclad straight man pattern?”
“Why can’t we do both?” Lin Ning retorted. “We block Tang Xiaolian and also conquer the captain—tackling both at the sa ti.”
Zhao Yuanzhen remained silent, thinking to herself that she was already the official Daoist couple of that little thief. It didn’t matter to her whether he was interested in won or not; he couldn’t get rid of her anyway. But since you all are so worried about Tang Xiaolian, then I might as well deploy a move to drive the tiger and swallow the wolf, provoking the inner quarters to fight against the outer ones… Heh heh, worthy of .
“Ningning is right,” she said, having thought things through, and spoke up to stir the pot, “Aren’t you afraid that Tang Xiaolian will be the one to break the captain’s ironclad straight man pattern?”
“That’s impossible,” Lin Ning was imdiately taken aback. “In the captain’s eyes, does Tang Xiaolian… qualify?”
When everyone heard this question, their instinctive reaction was that she certainly did not qualify. But it’s always that nagging ‘what if’—a man’s preferences can’t be accurately predicted, not even by the n themselves.
Still, it was better to be safe!
“Why has everyone gone silent?” Yan Yu suddenly spoke up. “Are you secretly discussing how to deal with again?”
“No, not at all!” Everyone hastily denied. “We’re discussing training matters. Isn’t there a baseline test today?”
At the ntion of the baseline, Yan Yu also realized: Are you afraid to spar with ?
Indeed, by the Hua Mansion Stage, the distinctions between the four major professions had beco quite pronounced.
Magic cultivators’ large-scale bombardnt tactics had matured. Whether it was Su Yunjin’s control flow of great rivers or Zhou Hongyu’s scorching sea of fire damage flow, the effects were overwhelmingly comprehensive. The point was to trap as many people inside as possible and to prevent the enemy from getting close.
Xie Ruoxi was an exception. With her Thunder thod’s power, there was no need to trap people; touch and they die, and even magic treasures couldn’t withstand it more than once or twice. Considering the high consumption of the Thunder thod and her poor aim, it was not suitable for wide-scale bombardnt—too much waste of True Yuan. It was better saved for a finishing blow.
At the Hua Mansion Stage, a Sword Immortal facing a magic cultivator focuses on seizing the rhythm and the initiative. Upon encounter, it’s a Sword Flying Slash and close-quarters suppression to prevent the casting of spells; on the other hand, if caught by a magic cultivator’s spell, it’s practically a lost cause—you just escape the range of the spell, and they imdiately cast another to trap you again, which is a disadvantage. Even if you finally escape after great effort, it’s just back to square one.
Therefore, at this stage, for Yan Yu to train with Su Yunjin and Xie Ruoxi, sparring didn’t have much significance. What the two ladies needed to practice was the proficiency of trapping and locking opponents with spells, not how to save themselves while being suppressed by a Sword Immortal.
Similarly, at the Hua Mansion Stage, the capacities of Envoy positions in terms of commanding ghosts and spiritual insects had significantly increased. What required training was awareness, planning, and how to direct your summons to achieve your tactical goals; Assistant Officers, with two or three magic treasures at their disposal, also needed to learn more versatile and changing tactics, using combinations of different treasures to deal with various situations.
But if Yan Yu were to spar with them, it would beco a one-sided oppression, where they would be busy fending off attacks clumsily, and would not be able to enhance the abilities they truly needed to improve upon.
Hmm…
Yan Yu pulled out his phone, thinking that if that’s the case, perhaps this approach would work?
——————————
“Captain Yan wants to look for us as sparring partners?” Zhang Huaide adjusted his glasses.
“Don’t go,” Qin ng scoffed. “I can already predict the outco.”
His path was a niche Body Refining Sect. Once he activated the Dragon Elephant Nirvana Divine Skill, neither flying swords nor spells could touch him—which ant you could go all out against him without holding back. His record was taking three shots of the Great Brightness Fla Spear from Zhou Hongyu without batting an eyelid.
But just because he won’t get hurt, doesn’t an he likes to be hit. Getting pumled by the captain and vice-captain was one thing, but why travel a thousand miles to be soone else’s punching bag? Let whoever wants to go, go!
“The Zhenhai Team, huh?” Hou Qing rubbed his chin. “Aren’t there a lot of beauties there? Just think of it as making friends. Old ng is still single, after all.”
“`
“Why drag into this again? How co everything always falls back on ?” ng Qingxi complained irritably, “You just want to use as a human shield, don’t you? As if you could just touch the girls from Zhenhai Team. We’re going to spar, not mix and mingle! Just wait until Xie Ruoxi unloads her Thunder thod on your head and blows your skull into oblivion!”
“It’s ngzi who should be tanking the Thunder thod,” corrected Hou Qing. “ngzi’s got Vajra Invulnerability.”
“Even ngzi can’t take a hit from the Thunder thod,” Qin ng retorted, shaking his head repeatedly. “I heard that ever since she started using it, there hasn’t been a single intact body amongst her targets. Have you seen the recording of the battle at The Secret Realm of Li Palace? Even the skeletons were blown to dust. I definitely don’t have the confidence for that.”
“It’s not very aningful for us to go,” Zhang Huaide concluded.
Training content needs to be tailored to those being trained. Being a punching bag is a sure way to gain little experience. The combat styles of the two teams are too different; so attending a sparring session will most likely just end up being a one-sided affair with no real benefit or value.
Zhang Huaide himself was actually quite interested in the training plans of the Zhenhai Team, but as vice captain, he had to consider the interest of the entire team. Intelligence gathering could be done slowly by asking them, but it wasn’t worth spending several days of the entire team’s ti.
As he was about to find an excuse to decline, he suddenly heard Zhou Hongyu say:
“Let’s go.”
“Then let’s go,” Zhang Huaide said with a wry smile.
Captain Zhou had decided! No one could change her mind! They just had to obey.
Zhang Huaide went to report to the higher-ups, while Qin ng, ng Qingxi, and Hou Qing began packing their bags, taking extra Elixir dicines for replenishing energy and treating external injuries. On Zhou Hongyu’s end, like a big brother, she half-reclined in a chair, taking out her phone to send Yan Yu a ssage:
“Next ti you want to reach out to the Huofeng Team, contact directly.”
“I was just worried you’d be busy,” Yan Yu texted back.
“It doesn’t matter if they agree if I do,” Zhou Hongyu said domineeringly. “And if I don’t, it doesn’t matter if they all agree.”
“So, what’s Captain Zhou’s intention?”
“Prepare the room I’ll be staying in.”
“Already booked hotel rooms for you all.”
“I’m staying at your place.”
Yan Yu:…….
If Hongyu alone ca over, staying would be okay. But this ti she was bringing the whole team, a whole four boys! Letting them stay in the sa house as the girls wouldn’t be appropriate; we’re not into the kind of big group sleepovers you see in ani, and the girls here are used to wandering around in their pajamas at night, which could be pretty awkward if the Huofeng Team’s guys saw them.
So Yan Yu’s original plan was to book six rooms for the entire Huofeng Team, with Tang Xiao Lian also staying with the team, sharing als and accommodations. Everyone would have a al upon arrival in Jinling, enjoy half a day of fun, spar in the afternoon to identify any issues, and confirm subsequent training plans. They would stay in the hotel for one night and then be sent back the next day; otherwise, if the whole team stayed too long, the Pingxi Army might have complaints.
But Zhou Hongyu insisted on staying in a villa… which complicated matters. The captain couldn’t just abandon her team, could she?
Yan Yu tactfully expressed his concerns, only to hear Zhou Hongyu instantly respond:
“Simple. Keep the hotel rooms, and I’ll phase through walls to visit you at night.”
“Isn’t that a waste of the hotel money?” Yan Yu bantered.
Zhou Hongyu raised her brows and icily stated:
“If you’re so worried about the hotel money, then I just won’t co and save you the trouble, how about that?”
“Co on, co on.” Yan Yu found her a bit difficult to handle and had no choice but to give in.
This girl… when she hated , I had her under my thumb in various ways, and even though her temper hasn’t changed, she has started liking , and now she’s suddenly beco assertive?
Sigh, I’ll have Yun Jin prepare a room…The one next to Xiao Lian will do.
