my unparalleled way

Chapter 154 Mu Zheping's Light
So...is that so?
After listening to Lin Si's words, Xie Shaoying felt absurd for a while.

Was it just for that reason that he used the sword as a barbecue stick?It turned out that I was just thinking too much...

It's just... Isn't this sword his usual weapon?
Xie Shaoying has a deep understanding of swords, and understands that for practitioners, a weapon at hand is definitely much easier to use than a weapon at hand.

Although the structure of the sword is not complicated, whether it is the length or weight of the sword, the gap between the magic cores inlaid with the formation engraved on the sword body, or the familiarity with the sword itself, it will affect the performance of the practitioner.

His performance along the way was incredible enough, but what he never expected was that what he used was not the weapon he took advantage of!
Xie Shaoying suppressed the shock in her heart, and a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.

I am really stupid enough, it is too ridiculous to imagine entering the realm of swordsmanship in this way.

In fact, it was just because I suddenly saw a person who was not much different in age but more talented than myself, which caused my mentality to become unbalanced, and my persistence almost collapsed.

After calming down, he took the initiative to ask, "Academy City, are there really a dozen students who are stronger than you?"

For Xie Shaoying's active questioning, Lin Si seemed very enthusiastic.

"It should be, but I haven't been in school for a long time, and I haven't played against many people."

"How long have you been learning swords?"

"This..." Lin Si looked troubled, it was really difficult for him to answer this question.

He can't even remember what happened before Qingyue Forest woke up.But he is not an idiot, and now he also knows that he must have been a practitioner before waking up.

But he has no memory of that experience at all now, and if he says he doesn't know, the other party won't believe it at all, and will instead blame himself for being insincere.

"Ten years!" He nonsense made up a fairly reliable year.

Xie Shaoying nodded. Sure enough, although the other party appeared to be very casual on the outside, he had actually worked hard in swordsmanship for ten years.

Judging by his age, he is only 15 years old.Then, starting to learn swords at the age of five is relatively early for most practitioners, but it is normal for them who are very talented.

He continued to ask: "Why do you want to go to school in Academy City? Who is your teacher?"

He was equally curious about this question.In his opinion, since Lin Si's talent is so high, it's time for him to enter the sect. Why waste time in the Academy City?

From Lin Si's speech and demeanor, he can't see the slightest aura of aristocrats and rich family children, and he can see that he was born in a grassroots market.Then he didn't learn practice from family guards and practitioners invited by the family like himself.

And colleges are even more impossible. Junior colleges generally only teach some basic skills and swordsmanship.

This is also why nobles and wealthy children are prone to geniuses, because they have good cultivation conditions since childhood.

The civilian children who were born in the grassroots market were not treated so well. Many of them had to help their families make a living since they were young.

Even if many people have excellent cultivation talents, by the time they are discovered, they may have missed the optimal cultivation age for many years, and even if they continue to practice, it will be difficult to achieve much...

Therefore, Xie Shaoying was very curious about why Lin Sihui, who was full of market spirit, was able to start practicing at the age of four or five, and had reached the level of swordsmanship, but it was not spread in Yue Kingdom.

Could it be that, like the stories recorded in some biographical novels, he had a hidden master who taught him secretly?
But this still doesn't make sense. If an expert master taught me, would I still use it to go to the Academy City?

How did Lin Si know that Xie Shaoying thought so far.

He didn't remember the master before he woke up.Not long after waking up, he practiced Yinli, and he has been practicing with Mu Zheping like a blind man touching an elephant until now.

If you really want to talk about a master, then there is one...

"My master is called Hua Susu."

"Is your master a woman?"

"Cough, yes..."

"Your master, her old man, what kind of cultivation is it? Breaking the realm or the heaven realm?"

"This... I'm not too clear." Lin Si said helplessly.

If he said that Hua Susu was only in the middle stage of spying, then Xie Shaoying would definitely think that he was fooling him again. As a last resort, he could only prevaricate, since Xie Shaoying would not be able to meet Hua Susu anyway.

"Oh, since you are a student, why did you come here? Did your master ask you to come here to practice?"

"This... is just because of an accident. In fact, I still have companions."

"You still have companions? Where are they?" In Xie Shaoying's eyes, Lin Si's companions should be similar geniuses, right?
"Lost away, how about you? Did you come here to practice?"

"Yes."

"It's too dangerous to practice here alone."

Xie Shaoying nodded and said: "It's very dangerous. I underestimated the Qushan Grand Canyon at first. Are you going to go inside?"

Lin Si said without hesitation: "That's right, I plan to cross the Qushan Grand Canyon and go to Tianhe Kingdom."

"But the Qushan Canyon is seven or eight hundred miles long, and we have only penetrated two hundred miles so far. The real danger has not yet arrived. The real danger is to go two hundred miles further, not to mention level five. Warcraft, even level six! With the strength of the two of us, we can't pass it at all."

"Let's take a step and see, I have a reason to go."

Xie Shaoying didn't ask any more questions. If Lin Si wanted to say something, he had already said it, so he didn't need to ask at all.

……

Meanwhile, in another part of the canyon, Mu Zheping, Yue Luoning, and Ye Hong had just finished a battle with monsters.

Although there was basically no delay along the way, they did not go fast.The reason is that this road is already dangerous for them.

Among the three, Mu Zheping was slightly inferior to Lin Siyi in strength, and Ye Hong's cultivation was not as good as Xie Shaoying's. The only advantage was that he had Yue Luoning in the early stage of the Yuan Realm.

But Yue Luoning is not good at fighting, expecting her to help join forces against the enemy, not only will there be no tacit understanding, but sometimes it will affect the performance of the other two.

Although they were not as unlucky as Lin Si when they encountered level [-] monsters along the way, some very difficult level [-] monsters still caused a lot of trouble for the three of them.

At this time, the three of them were doing the same thing as Lin Si.

Pick out the magic core, grill the meat, and rest in place.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get to the Tianhe Kingdom." Mu Zheping sighed quietly while busy.

Ye Hong smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, after only walking for more than two hundred miles, it's already becoming difficult to move an inch. The fifth-level and sixth-level monsters behind are not something we can resist at all."

"It would be great if Ah Si was here..." Mu Zheping said, his voice lowered.

Mentioning Lin Si, the faces of Yue Luoning and Ye Hong also darkened.

I haven't seen him for two days. It seems that something happened to him...

Yue Luoning suppressed the bitterness in her heart, pretending to be excited and asked: "You or him, who is stronger?"

Mu Zheping said without hesitation: "He!"

Yue Luoning and Ye Hong were a little surprised. They knew that Lin Si was quite strong, but they didn't expect Mu Zheping to answer so positively.

Along the way, they encountered seven or eight battles with monsters, large and small.If it weren't for Mu Zheping, they probably wouldn't be here at all.

It's hard to confirm his strength for the time being, because he hasn't used his spiritual power to release it. Maybe it's true, as the rumors say, the two hooded people are both practitioners who have changed their minds.

But his fighting power is really astonishing, his sword moves have no set pattern, every knife seems to have been calculated in advance, and they all appear where the monsters least want to see them.

His fighting seems to be very labor-saving. Most of the time, he just staggers his steps and raises his arms slightly. He rarely swings his knife wide open and closed. He can't see the boldness and wildness of being a swordsman at all.He always used an inconspicuous knife inadvertently, but this knife often became the knife that ended the life of the monster.

From Yue Luoning and Ye Hong's point of view, Mu Zheping's fighting style seems to be only suitable for sneak attacks.However, in battles, most of the sneak attacks are just for an instant, but he seems to be sneaking every moment.

A sneak attack requires excellent eyesight and excellent judgment, and someone like him who is always sneak attacking requires abnormal calculation ability.

This style of play seems simple, but in fact it is a great test of people's minds.For this kind of person, a battle has only just begun, and perhaps the entire battle situation has already been deduced into countless possible situations in his mind.

It has been almost ten days since he was hijacked.For the previous seven or eight days, Mu Zheping's sense of existence was extremely weak.

At that time, whether it was planning to get rid of the pursuers, choosing the timing, deciding the route, confronting the enemy head-on and breaking through, Lin Si single-handedly took care of everything.

At that time, Mu Zheping seldom put forward his own opinions. He seemed to be used to standing behind Lin Si, and he didn't see anything outstanding in him.His performance was quite satisfactory, neither making mistakes nor outstanding.

But now, after Lin Si was gone, Yue Luoning and Ye Hong finally saw the dazzling brilliance blooming from him.

In addition to his outstanding fighting ability, he also has a maturity and calmness that is not suitable for his age. No matter what kind of situation he encounters, he will not panic, let alone lose his head.

He was impeccable in his actions, if it weren't for him, how could they have traveled more than two hundred miles without encountering a single real danger?

With him by his side, despite the dangerous Qushan Grand Canyon, Yue Luoning and Ye Hong always felt that the road ahead was no longer bleak.

From Yue Luoning and Ye Hong's point of view, after Lin Si left, Mu Zheping perfectly reproduced the role he played before.Sometimes they even suspect that under his fifteen or sixteen-year-old appearance, there is a heart in his thirties and forties.

Although the two of them are older than him, they are like juniors in front of him.This kind of feeling has never been experienced by Lin Si.

Even though Lin Si is quite resourceful and good at fighting, what he shows on the outside is after all a youthful heart.

But now, Mu Zheping actually admits that he is not as good as Lin Si.

Could it be that because Lin Si is no longer here, he intentionally humbly exalts him?
