When system cheat becomes rampant!

"If I take the four of them there, I'm afraid they'll get into trouble," Xiang Beifei said, resting his chin on his hands.

"If they get into trouble, then that's a problem with your leadership," Ye Changfeng said.

"If there's a problem with my leadership, then it reflects poorly on the teacher's judgment. It's the teacher who should be reflecting," Xiang Beifei seriously stated.

Ye Changfeng: "..."

He rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

This guy, always as confrontational as ever!

"Alright, it's my fault. I take back what I said earlier. Let's not blame anyone and instead work together to nip any potential problems in the bud?" Ye Changfeng proposed.

Xiang Beifei watched the four SR Awakeners nearby, who were engrossed in watching a video replay with confusion on their faces, and pondered.

He wondered, if a real fight broke out, how could he maximize the four individuals' abilities?

Most importantly, their training's ultimate goal was to participate in the freshmen competition. But other teams had two SSRs; could he, a beginner in Meridian Opening, leading four in the advanced stages of Qi-Controlling, really stand a chance against many others in the Meridian Opening stage?

——

It took Long Guocheng and the others a full half hour to completely review their respective combat videos, and after they had finished, all four were incredibly surprised.

If not for Xiang Beifei directing them to cooperate in pairs, they wouldn't have even realized how powerful their combined abilities could be!

The Triangular Thunder Krait posed a huge challenge for them, and if they had to fight it alone, the chances of beating it were virtually zero. Even together earlier, without Xiang Beifei, they would have been helpless.

But Xiang Beifei, in just a few words, had helped them defeat such a powerful desolate beast!

Every timing he chose was so precise, as if everything was anticipated. Xiang Beifei's prowess left the four of them feeling awe-struck!

"Is he really just an N-ranked Body Cultivator?" Read latest stories on empire

As Long Guocheng thought about his disdain for Xiang Beifei over the past few days, he began to doubt himself.

Could an N-ranked Body Cultivator really achieve this level?

Long Guocheng frowned deeply. He had looked down on Xiang Beifei because his system was too basic, and he was just a brute force type of Body Cultivator; but now, he wasn't so sure anymore.

Ma Ziqian was also impressed by Xiang Beifei's commanding abilities. "Honestly, after watching the video, even if I were asked to face a Triangular Thunder Krait again right now, I might not be able to replicate what happened. Timing it is too hard," he said.

While speaking, he glanced curiously at Xiang Beifei and asked, "Did you kill a Triangular Thunder Krait this way last time too? By using other things to distract its attention?"

Xiang Beifei shrugged his shoulders, noncommittally.

It was Ye Changfeng who chimed in from the side, "He doesn't need to distract with other things. He goes directly for the kill."

He continued, "He can time the intervals between the Triangular Thunder Krait's lightning strikes, leap directly at it, and end it with a single strike; you couldn't grasp that moment, so you had to rely on coordination."

"Xiang Beifei is really impressive," Xi Keyao said admiringly.

"You are impressive too," Xiang Beifei said with a smile.

"I... I... I'm not as impressive as you are."

Xi Keyao, complimented by Xiang Beifei, immediately blushed, lowered her head, and shyly touched her index fingers together.

"Strange, why are you always so shy?" Xiang Beifei asked curiously.

"I... I'm just nervous because all of you are very strong, and I'm just a girl. I worry about being the weak link because I'm not strong at fighting," Xi Keyao said quietly.

Xiang Beifei thought for a moment, then asked, "Looking at your experience, it seems like you haven't fought before?"

Xi Keyao appeared somewhat annoyed. "I don't like fighting. I was actually going to go to the Liberal Arts College. I wanted to study nursing," she said.

"Nursing?"

"Yes, I can use my 'Tripod' to help patients endure pain."

Xi Keyao seemed happy as she explained, "Many people suffer from very troublesome diseases or venom from desolate beasts, and they really struggle. But I can use my 'Tripod Phenomenon' to transfer their pain, using my tripod to help them bear the pain, so they are no longer tormented by those things."

Xi Keyao's "Tripod Phenomenon" was indeed an eerie ability, capable of transferring a patient's pain and others' attacks into the big tripod to let the Tripod Phenomenon bear the harm for her.

If there was a desolate beast or a person inside the tripod, then it was this occupant that endured the attacks for her!

This meant attacks from others on the same level almost never affected her, including Long Guocheng's formidable 'Vision Pressure' ability; they couldn't hurt Xi Keyao.

Unless the opponent had an attack so powerful that the 'Tripod Phenomenon' couldn't bear it, bursting the big tripod, only then could she be harmed, and it would likely take someone a realm higher than her to do that.

"Your ability in nursing seems like a bit of an underutilization," Xiang Beifei couldn't help saying.

Xi Keyao seemed conflicted as she responded, "My dad said the same thing. He insisted I go to the Martial Arts College, but I don't really know how to fight and have no experience. This is only my second real fight."

"Second time?" Xiang Beifei felt it was quite novel, "When was your first fight then?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Xi Keyao looked uncomfortable and said, "The first fight was just last week, called by Mr. Ye for the selection. I thought I was just going to go through the motions, maybe be just a spectator...but...I don't know..."
