NOVEL NEXT Chapter 186: Chen Zilu's Gift (Four-in-One)
"Jiang Ye actually managed to hold out on the arena for so long."
"Isn't he only at the Second Break Early Period? And his spear technique is just at Great Success."
"Really from Penglai University? Not a student from one of the top ten universities?" The students surrounding the arena were all astonished.
Regardless of his realm or spear technique realm, Jiang Ye was inferior to Tang Wuji!
Under Tang Wuji's full exertion.
Managed to hold out for several minutes?
Quite unbelievable.
...
"Teacher." Jiang Ye, holding a black long spear, walked up to Qiu Cang and slightly bowed.
Qiu Cang looked at him with a calm expression and said, "Why did your combat power fluctuate during the actual battle just now?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wuji also glanced over.
Not just him, the few students from White Dragon University present all turned their gaze towards Jiang Ye.
As students of White Dragon University, their perspective and understanding were very high.
Most of them could see that Jiang Ye's combat power was fluctuating, seeming unstable.
This combat style is quite uncommon.
"Sometimes the power of your spear technique is at normal level, and sometimes it's twice as strong."
"Why is this?" Qiu Cang asked, "Can you tell the teacher the reason?"
Jiang Ye didn't speak, quickly pondering how to reply in his heart.
"That's enough."
"I understand." Qiu Cang smiled and said, "Did Teacher Zhu tell you to use this method against opponents?"
"Indeed it's a fine strategy, very suitable for dealing with opponents stronger than yourself."
Jiang Ye shyly smiled.
Qiu Cang looked at Tang Wuji and the others and said, "You should also learn, don't rely on being students of White Dragon University to think yourselves invincible."
"Just now, if Jiang Ye's spear technique had advanced another level, the one to lose would have been Tang Wuji."
The students in the training room all bowed and agreed.
"Jiang Ye."
Qiu Cang again looked at him and slowly said, "Of the one hundred and twenty issues I mentioned earlier, you've only corrected half, and there appeared over thirty new issues in the actual battle just now."
"Ah?" Jiang Ye was stunned.
He himself hadn't realized he had so many issues.
"Now, I will tell you the origins of these issues." Qiu Cang said, "Listen carefully."
"Yes." Jiang Ye quickly perked up his ears.
... Moments later.
Qiu Cang said lightly, "I'll give you ten minutes to digest, then continue actual battle."
"Tang Wuji, you will continue to spar with him."
"Yes." Tang Wuji nodded in agreement upon hearing.
For Tang Wuji, he was very willing to take on this task.
He could defeat the opponent while also honing his own spear technique.
This kind of thing, why not?
And for Jiang Ye, Tang Wuji was also an excellent opponent.
Although Tang Wuji was the weakest among this group of students, he was still much stronger than Jiang Ye.
If it were someone else, it would be overwhelming, wouldn't achieve the sparring effect.
This kind of opponent slightly better in strength brought immense pressure to Jiang Ye, yet wouldn't directly crush him, perfect as a sharpening stone.
...
Time passed.
On Jiang Ye's first day of advance-study at White Dragon University, he entered an unbelievably 'tormenting' training.
After each intense session of actual battle, Qiu Cang only gave him five to ten minutes to digest the gains.
Then immediately began the next actual battle.
Thus it continued for over ten hours.
Until midnight twelve o'clock.
In the training room.
"Alright, all go back." Qiu Cang said calmly, "Gather here tomorrow morning at six o'clock."
"Yes." Including Tang Wuji, everyone bowed.
"Jiang Ye, stay." Qiu Cang added.
"Yes." Jiang Ye hadn't intended to leave anyway.
The burly Tang Wuji waved at him and said, "Classmate Jiang, see you tomorrow!"
"Mm, see you tomorrow." Jiang Ye smiled at him, after this day's sparring, the two were no longer strangers.
After everyone left.
Only Jiang Ye and Qiu Cang were left in the spacious training room.
"Jiang Ye."
"Throughout this day." Qiu Cang looked at him and smiled, "How do you feel?"
"Very tired." Jiang Ye said truthfully.
He was indeed very tired, a whole day of actual battle sparring, constant corrections, his body had already reached its limit.
This high-intensity teaching style never had been in Zhu Honglie's place.
Even with Jiang Ye's Martial Arts foundation, he felt quite tormented.
"At White Dragon University."
"We train like this every day." Qiu Cang said calmly, "If you can't adapt, you can tell me and reduce the pressure."
"No need." Jiang Ye shook his head and said, "Just follow the teacher's style, I can endure it."
"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed in Qiu Cang's eyes.
He thought Jiang Ye would follow the steps and request pressure reduction.
After all, White Dragon University's teaching methods were indeed too harsh for Penglai University's students.
However, it's not uncommon for young people to be competitive.
"Alright." Qiu Cang said with a light smile, "After returning, continue cultivation, I give you three hours of sleep."
"Yes." Jiang Ye agreed without hesitation.
"Go back then." Qiu Cang said.
Yet Jiang Ye didn't move immediately, he pondered for two seconds before asking, "Teacher, can you tell me where Senior Sister Chen Zilu is?"
"Oh?"
Qiu Cang looked at him unexpectedly, then smiled and said, "Your senior sister is still cultivating, do you want to find her?"
"When does the senior sister rest?" Jiang Ye inquired.
"She doesn't rest." Qiu Cang said calmly, "Your senior sister is already at the Fourth Break Mid-period, sleeping once a month is sufficient."
Jiang Ye was dumbfounded, then nodded.
Indeed.
Even he now only needs two or three hours of rest per day to maintain daily activities.
A Fourth Break Strong Person could go a month without sleep without issues.
"Your senior sister is at White Dragon Star Garden No. 10."
"If you want to find her, it's best after three o'clock in the morning." Qiu Cang said, "Before then, she doesn't like being disturbed."
