Chapter 51: Chapter 43: Death Cos (Seeking further reading!!!)
With the improvent of perception, Zhou Yuan’s proficiency with Aoneng Power also constantly increased.
During these days, he attended classes during the day and trained arduously at night. Finally, last night, he successfully solidified the mud shadow, thus deriving a new ability, tentatively nad “Steel Shadow.”
As the na implies, this form of dark matter was as hard as steel, capable of easily piercing through flesh.
Combining the characteristics of the Shadow System, it was simply a killer technique.
Everyone has a shadow, but how many people would guard against their own shadow?
If equipped with the “Shadow Killer Cloak,” and using shadow spikes to stealthily attack vital points, not many extraordinary people would be able to co out unscathed.
“Interesting. If it were soone else, they might’ve been caught off guard and turned into a sieve.”
Chen Guangxi was surrounded by a layer of Protective Gang Qi, blocking the shadow spikes’ attack.
“Cheating, right? I don’t believe you managed to cultivate Protective Gang Qi at the early stage of Tier 1! Where’s the judge? I want to report this!” Zhou Yuan was indignant.
“Don’t shout. I am the judge.”
Chen Guangxi exerted a burst of energy, shattering the hardened dark matter around her.
“Your attacks can’t hurt , but they can ruin my clothes, and I don’t want to run around naked.
But since I did cheat, the difficulty of the assessnt is lowered. You just have to hold out for another minute.”
Chen Guangxi snapped her fingers, “Start a countdown.”
A light blossod, projecting a virtual 3D image in the air above the training ground.
[Countdown: 60 seconds]
“Begin.”
[Countdown: 59 seconds]
A loud noise tore through the air.
Chen Guangxi instantly closed the distance, clenched her five fingers, and punched towards Zhou Yuan’s face.
This punch seed to carry the force of wind and thunder. The air exploded, making a cracking sound like thunder.
Zhou Yuan felt a terrifying sense of oppression coming at him. His heartbeat skipped a beat, and almost instinctively, he used Aoneng Power. A large amount of dark matter surged in front of him, forming a steel-like black wall.
Imdiately after, boom!
The dark shadow wall exploded, shattering into pieces. Chen Guangxi’s fist continued to advance relentlessly, piercing through Zhou Yuan’s head.
The demon shadow shattered.
Another shadow clone.
Chen Guangxi turned to look at the end of the training ground, where nurous training equipnt stood, casting large shadows in the light. Zhou Yuan slowly erged from the darkness, his face ashen and breathing heavily.
“You want to kite
using Shadow Escape to delay ti? But how many more tis can your spirituality support your use of Aoneng?” Chen Guangxi instantly saw through Zhou Yuan’s tactic.
“About three or four more tis, but that’s enough.”
Zhou Yuan’s lips curved into a confident smile as he beckoned Chen Guangxi over, “Co on, can’t you keep up?”
“So confident?” Chen Guangxi grinned, “Then here I co.”
She took a step forward.
As her foot touched the ground, accompanied by a gale force wind, Chen Guangxi seed to teleport in front of Zhou Yuan, punching out.
Bang!
The pitch-black demon shadow exploded into black gas, dissipating slowly in the air.
A few more tis and your spirituality will be exhausted. Where will you run then… Chen Guangxi thought she had victory within her grasp. But when she turned her head, her expression changed.
Zhou Yuan was already standing by the light switch of the training ground!
He chuckled, snapping the lights off with a few clicks.
In an instant.
The entire training ground was plunged into deep darkness.
Only the virtual countdown image emitted a faint glow, dimly lighting up the surrounding area.
“Damn.” Chen Guangxi was dumbfounded.
Earlier, Zhou Yuan’s remaining spirituality could only support three or four more uses of Aoneng, but now in this dark environnt, he could use less spirituality to manipulate dark matter, effectively doubling his Aoneng uses.
Moreover, a Shadow System extraordinary person in a dark environnt was like a fish in water, difficult to catch like a rat in a sewer.
With a bit of thought, Chen Guangxi knew she was defeated.
“I lost.” She straightforwardly conceded.
Zhou Yuan did not turn on the lights, waiting until the countdown ended before pressing the switch to restore the training ground’s illumination.
“Quite cautious.” Chen Guangxi chuckled maliciously.
She had indeed planned to attack Zhou Yuan the mont the lights were turned on, to give him a lesson, but didn’t expect him to be so cautious.
“Phew…”
Zhou Yuan exhaled, leaning against the wall and panting heavily. The excessive consumption of spirituality made him dizzy.
Just then.
The training ground’s door automatically opened, and a group of investigators walked in. Among them were many familiar faces: Jiang Wuming, Bai Xiao, Mi Qi…
“What are you doing?”
Jiang Wuming looked perplexed at the scene in the training ground, then realized and looked at Zhou Yuan helplessly.
“You’ve been duped.”
“What?” Zhou Yuan was stunned.
“Your real assessnt content is ‘Simulating Sudden Anomalous Events,’ to test your observational abilities, reaction abilities, and crisis managent skills, not to have a fight with her.”
“You tricked ?” Zhou Yuan angrily looked at Chen Guangxi, realizing he had been played by soone senior.
Chen Guangxi innocently spread her hands, “Honestly, wasn’t that just a sudden anomalous event?”
“Well… that does make sense.”
Several examiners exchanged glances, feeling it made so sense, then looked at Zhou Yuan, “Did you win?”
“I did.” Zhou Yuan nodded.
“Really?” Everyone was shocked.
“Really.” Chen Guangxi readily admitted, “I only used early-stage Tier 1 strength against him, and he held out for over a minute.”
“Hiss…”
Jiang Wuming drew a cold breath, exclaiming, “This kid is terrifyingly strong!”
Chen Guangxi was like a dragon. Her early-stage Tier 1 was distinctly different from others’. Being able to last over a minute against her was indeed remarkable.
“Is there a combat recording?” an examiner asked.
“Yes.” Chen Guangxi snapped her fingers, “Play the recording.”
A light shone, and the virtual image of the recent combat projected in the air.
“Another new ability?” Jiang Wuming was shocked to see Zhou Yuan hardening the dark matter. How long had it been? How could he co up with so many tricks?
Mi Qi’s eyes brightened. She silently praised his talent but also felt imnse regret since she couldn’t date such an exceptional man.
After watching the recording, the examiners nodded slightly, whispered a few words to each other, and then announced that Zhou Yuan had passed the assessnt.
Chen Guangxi walked over, patted Zhou Yuan’s shoulder, and laughed heartily, “Well done, I’ll treat you to a good al.”
“Then I’d better eat my fill.” Zhou Yuan said fiercely.
“Wanna join us? Let’s have a gathering.” Chen Guangxi looked at the others.
“If soone’s treating, count
in. I’ll invite a few more people, make it lively.” Jiang Wuming said.
·
After a hearty al, the group decided to walk back to the Control Bureau to digest their food.
Suddenly, Jiang Wuming’s shoelace ca undone, so he squatted down to tie it.
Just then, a loud honking sound tore through the air from behind them. Zhou Yuan instinctively turned his head to see a large truck speeding towards them.
The driver in the cabin had wide-open eyes, a panicked expression, and was frantically honking.
Everyone there was an extraordinary person, with exceptional reflexes. They not only dodged in ti but also managed to save several pedestrians.
Despite tying his shoelace, Jiang Wuming reacted too by rolling away to avoid the truck’s impact.
But suddenly, a child darted into the road, initiating a solo charge.
The driver instinctively turned the wheel, causing the truck to head straight for Jiang Wuming again.
Bam!
Jiang Wuming was hit, caught under the truck, and instantly a tragic scene of blood and steel clashing erupted.
Weirdly enough, the out-of-control truck miraculously regained control after hitting Jiang Wuming, gradually coming to a stop.
The driver stepped out, staring at the long trail of blood on the ground, trembling as he pulled out his phone to call the police.
Zhou Yuan was dumbfounded. He knew Jiang Wuming was cursed, often dying from various accidents, but this one was too bizarre!
Jiang Wuming had avoided the danger, but then a kid suddenly appeared, causing the driver to turn the wheel and hit Jiang Wuming who had just escaped.
It was as if so mysterious force was orchestrating all this, determined to kill Jiang Wuming, like in “Death Cos.”
Chen Guangxi patted his shoulder, calmly explaining, “Jiang is immortal. Though he’s dead now, he’ll revive after finishing his battle in Hell.
It’s just a sha for all the good food we just had. Look, splattered everywhere.
What a waste.”
·
After the group returned to the Control Bureau, within half an hour, Jiang Wuming reappeared before them.
“Hey, that was a quick resurrection battle.” Chen Guangxi comnted.
“This ti my opponent was two-and-a-half Gojo. I cut him down with one shot, and he apologized for not giving
a proper fight before dying.”
Jiang Wuming joked, then looked at Zhou Yuan, “Soone’s looking for you.”
“Looking for ?”
Zhou Yuan was puzzled, “Who?”
“Ye Wan, from the Holy Crow Church.”
Holy Crow Church!
Zhou Yuan was shocked. He hadn’t sought them out, but they had co to him instead!
