Talisman Emperor
Chapter 10 – Fighting Tactics
Chen Xi heaved a sigh of relief once she arrived home.
During the previous battle, even though it was only for a moment, it consumed his mental strength in extreme amounts.
Combat was his weakness; since learning to make talismans 5 years ago, he had become too busy to have time to cultivate battle techniques. Yet he was very clear about his strong points: becoming a craft talisman expert and knowing the strength of the various basic talismans like his palm.
Nevertheless, this was the first time in a battle. He had no choice but to ponder and confer carefully to ensure that every step from the entry point to the battle to the escape route would be error-free before firmly taking a step.
Fortunately, everything went as he expected and no accidents occurred. It also allows him to understand in depth that a proper set of combat tactics will sometimes play a very important part during an operation.
Bai Wanqing's beautiful brows frowned slightly as she asked anxiously. "Chen Xi, we're back, but what if they're after us here?"
"I traveled to the General's Estate before I went to save you two. "Chen Xi replied calmly.
Bai Wanqing said disappointedly, "Didn't they say that taking into account the Li Clan, the General's Estate won't interfere in this matter?"
Chen Hao, who was standing next to her, instead of realizing what had happened and said with a smile, "Auntie Bai, if I take thrashing out earlier, then even if the General Estate finds out afterward, then, due to the consideration towards the Li Clan, they would naturally act as if they did not know. However, now that this matter has been revealed by my brother, the General's Estate is unable to continue their actions. Because if we become victims, even if the General's Estate is unwilling to defend us, in order to uphold their reputation in the heart of the commoners of Pine City, they have no choice but to interfere in this matter. This way, wouldn't the Li Clan have to pay a fair price? "
“However, the General Plantation represents the will of the Darchu Dynasty. It would absolutely not tolerate someone openly defying its authority! So, if the Li Clan is smart, they really do not dare to move against us at the moment. ”
Bai Wanqing was startled and finally understood. As he looked at the two brothers before him, his heart was filled with incomparable wonder for quite some time.
The older brother was calm and reserved with superior strategy-making abilities, and planned very carefully taking into account every possibility available. The younger brother was intelligent and sharp with superior insight ability. If the Chen Clan still existed, these brothers would truly be the ones the gods favored!
Unfortunately, everything no longer exists, and it brings great suffering and hardship to these two children …
Bai Wanqing could not help but feel a burst of sadness as she thought about this.
"How's your wound?" Chen Xi suddenly asked.
“I'll be fine after a few days of recovery. '' Chen Hao laughed as he asked, My brother, that old dog Wu's strength should be at the perfection stage of the Innate Realm, how did you achieve that before?'
Chen Xi casually replied, "That was nothing more than surprising him. If it was against him directly, even you and I together would not be his opponent. ”
Chen Hao chased after him, “Surprising him? I've definitely not seen you before, how did you suddenly appear? What is this formidable cultivation technique? ”
Bai Wanqing's curiosity also arose, because during the previous battle, he had not seen Chen Xi either, and only felt his body become light before being carried onto Chen Xi's back.
“It's very simple. '' Chen Xi pondered for a moment before replying. "When the two of you were in battle earlier, I used the Stealth Amulet and the Aura Retaining Amulet. As for the surprise attack on Manager Wu, I used the Icicle Talisman. ”
Chen Hao said in astonishment, "All of these are first-rate basic talismans. ”
Chen Xi nodded as he said, "The essence is not a talisman, it is the ability to understand the rhythm of battle. ”
Bai Wanqing was obviously confused, but Chen Hao suddenly understood as he said with a laugh, "Right, old dog Wu's first mistake was underestimating the enemy. His second mistake was to ignore the surroundings. His third mistake was losing control of his mind. Using this mistake, you can do a lot of things. However, the prerequisite is that you should already calculate the occurrence of these errors before making your move, only then can you achieve your goal. ”
As he spoke up to this point, Chen Hao lifted his head and said with a face full of admiration, "Brother, is this all in your prediction?"
Chen Xi avoided answering and said, "Tactics are only small Dao, and can only be used once and not twice. If that Manager Wu had cultivation in the Violet Palace Realm, any scheme would not be effective. ”
Chen Hao said with a smile, "Of course, all schemes and tricks will be completely destroyed before absolute power. Exactly like the Stealth Talisman and the Aura Restraining Talisman. They would be completely useless before the strong perception of a Violet Palace Realm cultivator. ”
After advancing to the Violet Palace Realm, one's Soul Sense imprint would leave behind a sea of consciousness and allow one to reach the power of perception, allowing one to easily see the fluctuations of the surrounding airflow. Thus the Demon Talisman and Aura Containing Amulet were indeed unable to avoid the perception power of the Violet Palace Realm cultivators.
"Right, how did you get into a fight with the members of the Li Clan?" Ask Chen Xi. He originally did not plan to find out the exact details, but since the matter was related to the Li Clan, it instead made him very wary. Among the enemies that killed his grandfather, the Li Clan was the target most worthy of suspicion.
Chen Hao looked down and was silent.
Bai Wanqing hurriedly explained, and it was only then that Chen Xi learned of the sequence of events.
It turned out that Chen Hao was planning to return to the Skystar Institute to train in swordsmanship this morning, but he had just entered the institute when he was sarcastically ridiculed by Li Ming. Li Ming said that after Chen Xi caused his grandfather's death, the next one was him, Chen Hao. The words Li Ming spoke were extremely evil and despicable, it really made Chen Hao really angry to the point that he was willing to break the rules of the institution and slap Li Ming in front of the eyes of all the students and teachers.
Dean Yu Ze was furious and issued a punishment for being expelled to Chen Hao. However, Yu Ze also indicated that as long as Li Ming forgave Chen Hao's offense, Chen Hao could still continue to train within the institute. Li Ming was naturally unwilling, so he called out to Manager Wu, and the following events were naturally something that did not need to be mentioned.
Chen Xi thought about it, then frowned as she said, "In that case, you've been completely expelled?"
Chen Hao raised his immature little face, and the corner of his mouth slightly wrinkled, but he was still stubborn as he said in a loud voice, “Brother, I don't regret it. ”
Chen Xi wanted to be angry, but could not bear to do so. He knew that whenever his younger brother fought, it was practically always for the sake of defending himself. His younger brother who could not stand being insulted anymore was just like he could no longer bully his younger brother.
"Little Hao is only 12 years old and has advanced into the Innate Realm. I felt that he could try the Pine Mist Institution. '' The nearest Bai Wanqing suggested.
Chen Xi started, and shook her head, "The Pine Mist Institute's recruitment condition is very harsh, and with Little Hao's crippled right hand, I'm afraid …"
Bai Wanqing interjected, "How do you know if you don't try? If Little Hao is willing, I can help recommend him to an instructor from the Pine Mist Institution. ”
Chen Hao said without hesitation, "Of course I'm willing. Auntie Bai, can you really help me? "
Chen Xi could not help but size Bai Wanqing up once more when she heard what she said.
According to his knowledge, Bai Wanqing was only a kitchen assistant at a restaurant in the city, and could barely maintain the livelihood of herself and Xixi by relying on this job. His living conditions were no better than him and his younger brother; how could he know an instructor within the Pine Mist Institution?
It seemed like Auntie Bai's identity was not simple.
"Then let's go now. "Chen Xi made a decision.
The Pine Mist Institution Foundation was solid and possessed strength that was truly able to keep up with the General Estate and the Li Clan. If his younger brother could enter the Pine Mist Institution to train, his younger brother would really not have to worry about the Li Clan's revenge anymore, and he wouldn't have to worry too much.
…
Pine Mist Institution, Sword Polishing Hall.
Each and every blue-clothed youth had an upright and high-spirited posture.
Their expressions were solemn as they looked at the tall figure in front with gazes that revealed endless admiration.
This person was tall and skinny, with eyebrows that were far away from each other and a sturdy figure. He looked like an unshakable towering single mountain as he stood there, and his entire body emitted a dignified and deep and concentrated aura.
He was Meng Kong, the instructor of the Sword-Polishing Hall, the 6th star of the Violet Palace Realm sword sword!
"Regardless of palm techniques, fist techniques, foot movements, or perhaps sword techniques, sword techniques, – spear techniques they are all divided into basic stages, advanced stages, and unity stages.
“When the sword technique is successfully processed, it is considered as the basic stage. When the sword technique was successfully processed for mastery, it was considered to be at an advanced stage. And when the sword technique was successfully cultivated to perfection, it could be called the unity stage. Arriving at this step, the Heaven and Earth spirit energy would be drawn for you to use when the sword technique was executed, causing your offensive power to rapidly increase and multiply. However, this could only be referred to as starting to ferret out the Dao of the sword, and was taking the first step on the road to search for the Dao through the use of the sword! "
“So, when you have not reached the unity stage, all of you are not considered to be true sword cultivators, and do not have anything worthy of being arrogant! Do you all understand? "
Meng Kong's voice was cold and loud like ice, as it trembled throughout the Sword-Polishing Hall, unceasingly for a long time.
The hearts of the blue-clothed youth trembled when they heard what he said, then they poked out their chests with stern looks and said in unison, "Understand!"
Meng Kong nodded and said nothing more.
“Meng Instructor, someone is looking for you outside. "An institute guard ran over and said in a low voice.
Meng Kong frowned, "Didn't you see that I'm in class?"
The heart of the board guard shook and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty as he gritted his teeth and said, “The woman said that you will definitely see her. However, if you are not free, then I will immediately reject his request. ”
A lady?
Meng Kong was startled, and a delicate and mature female figure appeared in his mind. A trace of excitement appeared in his heart for no reason and he took a deep breath to calmly calm himself down, then said in a low voice, "Wait, what's his name?"
The institution guard scratched his head and said hesitantly, "He is surnamed Bai, and seems to be called. I'm not so sure, should I ask again? ”
Uh, where did Instructor Meng go? The institution guard raised his head, but realized his astonishment that Meng Kong had long disappeared, and it was unknown where he went.
…
Meng Kong's eyes opened wide as he looked at the familiar figure before him in disbelief. His stern and cold face was already filled with excitement.
"Wanqing, you finally want to see me. ”Talk it with a hoarse and deep vibrating voice.
Bai Wanqing's expression was very complicated when he saw Meng Kong, and he took a deep breath until his feelings were steady, then he turned his head to say to Chen Xi who was nearby, "You and Little Hao waited outside first, I have something to talk about. with Meng .. the instructor alone. ”
Chen Xi nodded, then pulled Chen Hao to turn around and exit.
He already knew that Bai Wanqing had an unusual relationship with this man named Meng Kong, and the two of them should not have met for many years, or the previous sight would not have happened.
She could not help but feel curiosity in her heart; what was the relationship between Auntie Bai and this man named Meng Kong?
"Brother, do you think I can succeed?" Chen Hao raised his small face and asked. He was young, and could not see the emotional connection between a man and a woman.
Chen Xi pondered for a moment and then said, “There should be no problem. “Through the scene from before, he could roughly confirm that his sister might actually be able to break into the Mist Pine Institution, with Auntie Bai as the most vital link in the chain.
Before long, the door opened once more.
Bai Wanqing's eyes were red and swollen, but it was hard to hide her relief. He seemed to have unlocked at the bottom of his heart and exclaimed with a smile, “Let's you two, Instructor Meng wants to test Little Hao's swordsmanship. ”
Chen Hao's spirit rose, and he rubbed his fists, "Alright!"
A trace of a light smile that was not easy to see quietly slipped into the corner of Chen Xi's lips. Finally started?
