After five or six minutes, Guo Jiahao seemed to adapt to the attack rhythm, and his counterattack frequency began to rise. At the same time, he consciously started learning the Element Avatar's spell usage techniques.
However, because he needed to chant spells to cast, he was still firmly suppressed by the Element Avatar.
Another arrow, combining light and fire, shot directly towards Guo Jiahao. Guo Jiahao quickly chanted, "Light and shadow formless, shifting shadows!"
His figure suddenly flickered to a nearby spot, avoiding the arrow. He then chanted again, releasing a flashbang that transformed into a bomb capable of instantly releasing light and heat under the enhancement of his talent.
But when the bomb exploded, the Element Avatar also used Shifting Shadows to flash to the side, completely unharmed. At the same time, it extended its hand and launched a volley of magic bullets, identical in effect to the skill Guo Jiahao had just released, except it fired six at once.
Seeing this, Guo Jiahao immediately wanted to cast Shifting Shadows again, but he found that his magic power had unknowingly bottomed out, preventing him from using Shifting Shadows again, and his mental strength was also largely depleted.
Just as the six magic bullets were about to hit him, Lu Chenxing waved his hand, dispelling the Element Avatar and the six magic bullets. "Alright, that's enough for now!"
Lu Chenxing looked at Guo Jiahao's pale face, drenched in sweat, gave him a thumbs up, and smiled, "You've made great progress today. Let's continue tomorrow."
Hearing Lu Chenxing announce the end of today's special training, Guo Jiahao abruptly sat down on the ground. As his mind relaxed, he felt his muscles aching and his entire body soaked with sweat.
But he smiled and said, "Yes, this is the feeling! This is real special training! This is what you call progress!"
"Although you've made great progress, but..." Lu Chenxing shook his head slightly at this moment and said, "Your magic power is dry now, but the opponent still has a lot of magic power. Have you ever thought about what the problem is?"
"Do you remember how many times you used Shifting Shadows to dodge attacks?"
Guo Jiahao, who had been smiling, suddenly couldn't smile anymore. Yes, in the past five minutes, he had used Shifting Shadows dozens of times to dodge attacks. It could be said that most of his magic power was used for dodging, and the number of counterattacks wasn't even that high.
"There's still a long time until the inter-school challenge, so let's solve this problem first before talking about other things." Lu Chenxing concluded, bringing the special training to an end.
After witnessing Lu Chenxing's guidance, Guan Yang immediately raised his hand after Guo Jiahao stepped down and said, "Master! I want special training too!"
This kind of high-pressure training was very much needed for them; it could make them grow quickly, and with their Master in control, they could act without restraint.
In fact, Guan Yang and Yun Qiaoqiao had never used their full strength when sparring, because he could tell that his junior sister had a competitive personality, and if they truly used their full strength, both of them would end up in an awkward situation.
The pressure other peers, including the exotic beasts in the secret realm, could bring him was also limited, which made him feel like he had strength but nowhere to use it.
Now, seeing that his Master had this skill, he couldn't help but feel his hands itching.
"Alright, then you..." Before Lu Chenxing could finish speaking, a small blue figure darted in from the entrance, calling out sweetly, "Daddy!"
Seeing this, Lu Chenxing quickly bent down and picked up Xiao Zhi, who had run over. The moment he held her, he realized the little one had gotten much heavier, though her build hadn't changed, which must be due to her physique awakening.
"Xiao Zhi, are you awake?" Lu Chenxing asked with a smile, his forehead resting against Xiao Zhi's little head.
Xiao Zhi wrapped her fair, small hands around his neck and nodded energetically, "Mm! Xiao Zhi is awake!"
But the next moment, a loud rumbling sound came from her little belly, so loud that everyone heard it, and smiles involuntarily appeared on their faces.
Xiao Zhi's little face turned red, and she shyly buried her head in Lu Chenxing's embrace, too embarrassed to look up, leaving only two translucent ice-blue dragon horns exposed.
"Hmm? Dragon horns?" At this moment, Guo Jiahao, who was completely exhausted, suddenly noticed Xiao Zhi's change. His expression then shifted, and he pointed at Xiao Zhi in disbelief, "Xiao Zhi?! When did you also become Second Order Early Stage?!"
After his reminder, everyone suddenly realized that Xiao Zhi had actually reached Second Order Early Stage! Especially Guan Yang and Yun Qiaoqiao, who were slightly stunned. They had cultivated for quite some time and completed missions to reach Second Order Early Stage.
How could this little one, at just five years old, already be Second Order Early Stage?! What exactly was going on?!
At this moment, Yan Pingsha, who knew the inside story, spoke up, "Xiao Zhi is from the Dragon Slaughtering Clan. In the secret realm, she awakened her physique with dragon blood and dragon bones. It's normal for her to have Second Order Early Stage strength, and judging from the situation at the time, this is also because Xiao Zhi is younger, and her bone structure is not fully developed."
"So, when her physique was activated, most of the energy from the dragon blood and dragon bones was used to complete her bone structure; otherwise, her current strength would only be higher."
Everyone fell silent for a moment, speechless, looking at Xiao Zhi with envy. Before, they only thought that the President's little daughter was beautiful, cute, sensible, and particularly endearing.
But when they thought that their strength as adults would be surpassed by this little one in a while, they felt uneasy.
Guo Jiahao, however, his eyes darted around, and he grinned at Xiao Zhi, "Xiao Zhi, you're as strong as me now. Do you want to spar with me?"
Hearing him speak, everyone looked at him speechless for a moment. Was he so badly abused that he wanted to find some sense of accomplishment from Xiao Zhi? Didn't he feel ashamed?
After understanding the meaning in everyone's eyes, Guo Jiahao instead puffed out his chest and retorted, "What's wrong? Second Order Early Stage fighting Second Order Early Stage, is there a problem?"
Hearing his twisted logic, Lu Chenxing smiled helplessly, and just as he was about to give him extra training to teach him a good lesson and let him know the price of bullying Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi spoke first.
"Really?" Xiao Zhi was a little surprised, but also a little hesitant, "But I'm a bit afraid of pain."
Seeing that Xiao Zhi was actually a little interested, Guo Jiahao's heart filled with joy, and he repeatedly said, "Of course! Xiao Zhi has become very strong now, it won't hurt anymore!"
Everyone present changed their expressions, their hearts sinking, and they fell silent.
After Guo Jiahao finished speaking, he noticed the strange atmosphere around him. Why was everyone so quiet? Then he saw Lu Chenxing's face turn cold, and he said in a cold voice, "Guo Jiahao, it seems your extra training intensity is still not enough. Starting tomorrow, you will train to your death!"
"Even if you really train to death, as long as you don't stink, I'll find someone to resurrect you! And once you're resurrected, you'll continue training until you die again!"
Hearing this, Guo Jiahao couldn't help but shiver to his bones. He felt it, Lu Chenxing was truly angry, so he forced a stiff smile and said, "Boss, I was just kidding..."
