Chapter 10
Combat Class
Mo Xiu wasn’t sure if Wang Yu would discover God’s Eye, so he didn’t dare to use it rashly.
It was just like how his entire body would flash with a golden light when he activated Descent of the Martial God. If he could not see the effect of Wang Yu’s skills when he activated God’s Eyes, that meant that he had been exposed.
Mu Qingyi and the other two saw that Mo Xiu had no intention of continuing to fight after being defeated. Thus, they were all stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do.
Currently, Wang Lei’s entire body was engulfed in flames, making it impossible to see his expression clearly. However, his next action let everyone know that he was angry.
With two large strides, Wang Lei passed by Mo Xiu and arrived before the other three people.
He punched the fatty Liu Ziyang. However, the moment his fist came into contact with Liu Ziyang’s body, Liu Ziyang’s entire body turned illusory.
Wang Lei’s punch actually missed. An afterimage of Liu Ziyang was left behind in his original spot, and he completely disappeared.
Wang Lei immediately turned around and punched again!
The next scene was rather strange. A black shadow appeared behind Wang Lei. Then, the black shadow gradually solidified. When the entire black shadow appeared, Wang Lei’s punch landed on the figure.
That was right! This figure was Liu Ziyang. The skill that Liu Ziyang used just now was similar to the Flash. He left behind an afterimage in the distance and instantly appeared behind Wang Lei.
However, he did not expect Wang Lei to see through him. The strength of this punch was not light, and it directly sent Liu Ziyang flying.
Wang Lei did not stop. He delivered a kick towards Yue Yuan, who immediately retreated upon seeing this scene.
Wang Lei chased after him, but when Wang Lei took a step forward, a circle appeared beneath his feet and a burst of light erupted.
After that, Wang Lei stopped moving. Yue Yuan shouted, “Quick, attack now!”
When Mo Xiu, Liu Ziyang, and Mu Qingyi heard this, they attacked together. Mo Xiu was the closest to Wang Lei, and he directly punched Wang Lei’s back with all his strength.
Meanwhile, the fatty Li Ziyang was not slow either. He took out a dagger from somewhere and stabbed it at Wang Lei’s right arm.
Mu Qingyi stood where she was and threw out a flying dagger that headed straight for Wang Lei’s face.
Wang Lei was attacked from three sides. The three of them reacted extremely quickly and attacked in less than a second.
Wang Lei only paused for a second. After regaining his mobility, he grabbed Liu Ziyang’s wrist and threw him behind him, hitting Mo Xiu.
Then, his left hand went to grab Mu Qingyi’s flying dagger. However, the dagger unexpectedly passed through Wang Lei’s palm and headed straight for his face.
Pa!
The dagger hit Wang Lei but did not cause any damage. Like Mo Xiu’s attack at the start, it did not break Wang Lei’s defense.
After that, the four of them no longer had any strength to resist and were beaten up by Wang Lei. Other than Mu Qingyi who was slightly better off, the other three could be said to be covered in injuries.
Wang Lei retracted his skill and said, “You guys will have your second challenge in three hours.”
Even Mo Xiu was starting to feel despair. How was he supposed to fight this person? He couldn’t even break through his defense, but he had to challenge him a second time in three hours.
Mo Xiu could only gather them together to discuss their battle plan for the next challenge.
“In the battle just now, we didn’t know each other’s skills, so we were a little flustered. In order to better cooperate, we should first learn about each other’s skills.”
“I’ll go first. My skill is called Descent of the Martial God. It can increase all of my attributes.”
Even if Mo Xiu did not mention how much his attributes would increase after activating this skill, Mu Qingyi and the other two were still slightly surprised. They had never heard of a skill that could increase all attributes.
Mu Qingyi was the second to speak. “My technique is Spatial Folding, which can allow me to transport objects. The flying knife just now could pass through Teacher Wang Lei’s palm because I actually used Spatial Folding. Unfortunately, my attack power is too weak, and I couldn’t cause any harm to Teacher Wang Lei.”
Liu Ziyang continued, “My skill is called Afterimage. All of you have seen the effect. It leaves behind an afterimage and allows me to disappear. One second later, I will appear at any spot within a one-meter radius from my original position.”
Yue Yuan said, “My skill is Five Elements Formation. Metal is used to strengthen my attacks, wood is used to stun, water is used to heal, fire is used to damage, and earth is used to strengthen my defense. I can set up a formation on any spot on the ground, but I cannot activate it. Instead, it will activate automatically after two seconds. I used the Wood Formation to temporarily control Teacher Wang Lei just now.”
No one hid the effects of their skill. There was no need to hide it either. After all, their skill would definitely be known in the future battles.
What really needed to be hidden was the duration of the skill, its cooldown time, and other important information. This was because it was easy for others to exploit this information.
Logically speaking, the skills of these few people were variable and they could formulate many strategies with them. However, under Wang Lei’s absolute defense, no one had any good ideas.
During the second challenge, no one had any fighting spirit. When they were faced with an undefeatable opponent, it was a hopeless situation.
As a result, the challenge ended very quickly. The four of them were mostly harassing him. Mo Xiu didn’t even use any skills.
In the end, the four of them were beaten up again and laid on the ground.
Wang Lei’s mood was dampened as he said, “Today’s combat class is over. Tomorrow, you will continue challenging me.”
The four of them helped each other to sit up. Mo Xiu and the others suspected that this combat class was not meant to train them. Instead, Wang Lei simply wanted to torture noobs like them.
At night…
After the four of them had their meal, Yue Yuan used the water formation in the Five Elements Formation to heal everyone.
After that, they went back to their own rooms to rest. After all, they had been beaten up for an entire afternoon and were all very tired.
After returning to his room, Mo Xiu began to summarize what he had learned today. At this moment, his phone rang.
It was a message from Zheng Yi.
“Mo Xiu, you’re such a jerk. You told me that you were going to become an exchange student, but you didn’t say that you would leave so soon. Which school did you go to?”
Mo Xiu replied.
“There are only ten days left until the college entrance examination. Of course I’ll leave immediately as an exchange student.”
“Oh, okay. Which school is it?”
“It’s a school you’d never think of.”
…
On the other side of the courtyard, a heated discussion was taking place in a room.
Wang Lei said to an old man, “Elder Tang, Mo Xiu’s skills are indeed rare. His skill might be able to improve all his attributes, but it’s not enough for you to make an exception and send him to the Cosmic Tuition Class.”
At this moment, Elder Tang was lying on his side on the bed and said angrily, “What do you know? Let me tell you, this kid is not simple. Maybe he has more than one skill. Wang Yu, look at that kid’s attributes today and see if there are any abnormalities.”
Wang Yu thought for a moment. Then, he pushed his glasses up and said, “The basic attributes of his body are not bad. His skills belong to the warrior category. There are no abnormalities.”
“From tomorrow onwards, I’ll give you a mission. Activate your skills to observe Mo Xiu throughout the day.”
…
The next morning, in the classroom.
“The main topic today is about upgrading skills.”
“Before that, let’s talk about what happened yesterday. Did you notice that Wang Lei asked you to rest for three hours before fighting again?”
The four of them nodded.
“In that case, how did Wang Lei determine that your skills could complete their cooldown in three hours?”
That was right. How did Wang Lei know that the cooldown time for all four skills was within three hours?
“The reason is very simple. According to big data analysis, unless the skill is some large-scale killing skill, the cooldown time will be within three hours. This is something that will be covered in university courses. You guys should understand it first.”
“Let’s get back to the main topic. There are two ways to upgrade your skills. One is to train, and the other is to eat.”
