A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

Chapter 1285

"There's also the matter of Maki, so we can't let them kill Xuanhao and we have to win the game." Panda concluded.

"Of course." Nobara Kugisaki nodded slightly.

Afterwards, several people began to act separately.

So we have the scene we see today.

  ···········

“Kasha——”

"It hurts so much..." Nishimiya Tao, who fell from mid-air, landed awkwardly on the trunk of a tree and complained.

"Is that Fushiguro-san's 'Nue'?"

Thinking back to the huge bird-shaped Shikigami that had just appeared in front of her and knocked her down in one fell swoop, Nishimiya Tao felt ashamed. Until now, her body was still in a semi-paralyzed state.

"Electric wings... your movements may be temporarily affected."

"Boom-"

Just when she was having a headache, the tree she was sitting on was kicked and started shaking, and two teasing voices came from below.

"Nishimiya sister-sister ...

"Come—play—"

Panda and Nobara Kugisaki were seen smiling with their eyes narrowed, looking at her with their hands in their pockets with a teasing look on their faces.

"So tasteless, not cute at all..."

Xigong Tao had cold sweat on her forehead as she looked at the two people below.

More headache.

  ···········

the other side.

"Senior Kamo, do you want to kill Xuanhao?"

On the other side, Fushiguro Megumi was still staring at the man in front of her with a gloomy look.

"What if I said...you guessed it right?"

Kamo responded calmly.

"It seems it failed."

Fushiguro Megumi listened to the tone of his response and calmly judged, "Xuan Hao cannot be killed in such a short time."

"We have no reason to kill him." Kamo stepped back and kept some distance from Fushiguro Megumi, and spoke lightly.

"Yes?"

Fushiguro Megumi held the crutches in his hands and retorted, "There are many reasons, such as orders from the upper echelons or the three major families."

  ···········

boom--

If the battle situation in other places was relatively harmonious, then the battle between Xuan Hao and Toudou Aoi could only be described as intense.

There was not much verbal communication in the fight between the two men, only punches and blows.

Toudou Aoi's fists kept hitting Xuan Hao.

Xuanhao also continued to use the surrounding terrain to take advantage of his speed to counterattack.

"Perfect endurance, and aggressive use of terrain!!"

Dongtang Aoi became more and more appreciative of Xuanhao's performance.

However, in a blink of an eye, he found that the figure in front of him had disappeared.

"Gone!?"

The next moment, a bang was heard.

He was hit hard on the back of the head.

It was the disappeared Xuanhao who had already circled behind him.

"The connection between the moves is also extremely fast."

Toudou Aoi was not angry when she was hit, and even had a smile on her face.

"What's particularly exciting is——"

boom--

His head was hit by Xuanhao's punch and he couldn't help but lean back.

"Such a powerful force!!"

"The power contained in his small body is actually stronger than mine. That's why he can attack with just a small amount of cursed energy. It's extremely difficult to predict his movements based on the direction of his cursed energy!!"

"But... this cursed energy that came with a delay of half a beat... is only this..."

"Only this..."

"wrong--!!"

"No, no, no, no—"

Toudou Aoi let out a dissatisfied roar.

He was extremely satisfied with everything about Xuanhao, except for this one thing that made him unhappy.

It’s my grandmother’s!

  ···········

"That was...Toudou's roar just now, right?"

Zenin Maki, who was facing Miwa Kasumi, listened to the roar coming from afar with some embarrassment and asked in confusion.

"I think I understand a little bit why you couldn't get rid of Xuan Hao."

"..." Miwa Kasumi nodded somewhat embarrassedly, admitting that Zenin Maki had guessed correctly.

"So, why did you split up with Kamo Kenji?"

Zenin Maki asked teasingly.

"Do you keep your technique secret from your companions?"

"I'm sorry about Xuanhao." Sanlunxia lowered her head and sighed, "It may sound like a quibble, but I'm different from everyone else. However, even so, I will not give up the victory of the exchange meeting."

"So, killing Xuan Hao is not what you want, and all you want is to win this exchange meeting?" Zenin Maki tilted her head slightly.

"Yes." Miwa Kasumi explained, "You know that the upgrade of magicians is based on recommendation, right? Even magicians who have no vertical intersection will be informed of the exchange meeting. Students who show their skills at the meeting can get more upgrade opportunities during their studies. By the way, teachers cannot recommend their own students. For example, Gojo teacher cannot recommend Fushiguro and Xuanhao to become first-level magicians. I want to be independent as soon as possible and start making money."

"……Why?"

Zenin Maki was slightly stunned and a little confused.

"Because my family is very poor!! And I have two younger brothers!!"

Miwa Kasumi responded as a matter of course.

"Forehead……"

Zenin Maki felt that this reason was impeccable and even began to worry about the girl in front of her.

"Are you okay? Are you getting along with Mayi? That guy is mean."

"Uh... you are too nice, aren't you? I think it should be okay... not that difficult to get along with." Sanlun Xia was slightly stunned.

"However, even if you have such a reason, I won't let you go." Zenin Maki smiled and took an attacking stance.

"No problem. I'm not saying this just to get you to go easy on me."

Sanlunxia's eyes narrowed slightly.

Also posing.

  ···········

"Xuanhao, your spell power has a delay!!"

On the other side, Toudou Aoi stopped attacking and asked Xuan Hao in front of him.

"That's a bad habit of yours, isn't it?"

"?"

  Xuan Hao was a little confused when he heard this, and wondered what happened to this person suddenly?

"Are you talking about the Jingting Fist?"

"That's right, if you're satisfied with that stuff, you won't be able to beat me!!"

Toudou Aoi spoke as a matter of course.

"If that level of achievement satisfies you, then we can't be close friends..."

"..."

"Did you hear that?"

"..."

Xuanhao was speechless.

  I wondered how I should answer this idiot in front of me.

He doesn't really care whether we are close friends or not.

After all, wasn't this the first time they met?

"Is it okay to be a weakling forever?"

Toudou Aoi asked persistently.

"Of course not!"

Such questions finally made Xuanhao look serious.

"Right! Best friend!!"

Toudou Aoi roared fiercely.

  ···········

The “hand” cannot become more skilled than the “eye”.

Experts always "see" more thoroughly. If you can't develop the "eyes" to distinguish good from bad, you can't expect the "hands" to grow to create works. This is a phrase often used by creators.

This statement also applies to all professional fields.

People who are good at "seeing" improve much faster than those who do not have this skill.

And Xuanhao obviously has this ability.

Toudou Aoi saw it clearly.

At this moment, the fist that Xuanhao swung towards him was different from when he first met him just now.

Facing him who was constantly throwing right hooks, he instantly threw a left straight punch! ! This was not a move that Xuan Hao could do just now.

This man is growing rapidly!

The purpose was to give him a strong blow.

boom--

Once again, he was hit by a punch.

Toudou Aoi fell down with a smile on her face.

"Hmm... What a neat and beautiful defense break!!"

Looking at the defenseless falling Todo Aoi, Xuan Hao continued to raise his fist, ready to pursue the victory.

  The face is defenseless!! It can be hit! The Jingting Fist can hit!!

"but--"

Todou Aoi's falling figure suddenly stopped.

He bent his waist in a strange posture and caught Xuanhao's fist with his forehead.

"!!"

Looking at this scene, Xuan Hao was slightly stunned.

He didn't expect that this man could hit him with his forehead before his fist finished accelerating.

"This is not the place for you to fight."

Dongtang Aoi smiled, straightened his back, and grabbed Xuanhao's wrist as he punched.

"Your 'Jingting Fist' is achieved by relying on your extraordinary physical abilities and the delay of cursed energy that would not normally occur, right?"

"It's a novel idea. Ordinary magicians may not understand what's going on and become confused. It's also powerful enough. That is, if the opponent is an ordinary one!"

"But it's useless for the special grade."

"..." Xuan Hao listened to the words of the man in front of him and nodded slightly in silence.

He thought back to the time when he faced the real person.

Facing such a special-grade cursed spirit, his fists only worked in the beginning. The opponent quickly adapted to his attacks and became useless.

"What would you do, dear friend?"

Toudou Aoi continued to ask.

"Inject all my magical power?" Xuan Hao tried to answer.

"Good!"

Dongtang Aoi was very satisfied with Xuanhao's answer and began to get ready.

"Then let me tell you why the cursed energy is delayed. It's because you are 'injecting' cursed energy."

"??"

Xuanhao was confused. Isn't it the same as saying nothing?

"Um...are you trying to tell me to increase the injection speed?"

"Many magicians will consciously perform the act of injecting cursed energy." Toudou Aoi shook his head slightly and explained, "The cursed energy extracted from negative emotions, such as 'anger to the point of swelling' or 'hate to the point of twisting intestines', will flow through the body starting from the navel. From the navel, it passes through the chest, shoulders, arms, and finally 'flows' into the fists. This consciousness of dividing the body by parts will cause the cursed energy to be delayed."

"!!"

When Xuanhao heard this, he suddenly understood something.

"There is nothing wrong with 'injecting' cursed energy, but it is only the 'first step' and we should not be too obsessed with it." Todou Aoi continued, "The more first-rate the magician is, the harder it is to see the flow of cursed energy. Of course, the specific reasons are different from yours. Do we think with our stomachs? Can we express anger with our heads? Listen carefully, my dear friend! We exist in this world with all our heart and soul. We take it for granted so much that everyone forgets about it."

"Thank you, Toudou."

Xuanhao raised his hand, concentrating, and a hint of enlightenment came to his mind.

"I seem to understand."

"...It seems...there is no need to continue talking."

Dongtang Aoi looked at the rising momentum of Xuanhao and chuckled.

Also posing.

The backs of their outstretched hands touched each other, and the battle was about to break out.

"I will not show mercy."

Toudou Aoi's face was filled with excitement.

He would do his best to guide the man in front of him.

Don't die, my friend.

  Climb up! Climb to the top!

···········

"Let me ask you, your principal."

On the other side, Kugisaki Nobara, who had trapped Nishimiya Momo against a tree, asked calmly.

"Did he order you to kill Xuan Hao?"

"!"

Xigong Tao was slightly surprised when she heard this.

This girl has such a sharp intuition... No, it should have been the panda that discovered it, right?

"Eh...what do you mean?"

She awkwardly pretended to know nothing.

"Don't hide it. I will fight with murderous intent as well. Especially that low-profile version of Maki-sister named Mayi."

Kugisaki Nobara twisted her neck and spoke calmly.

"Aha?"

Xigong Tao was speechless.

"What'haa ...

Kugisaki Nobara sneered. She thought, so this is what makes her angry? Although she was also very angry.

"A smart robot could do something more sensible. Ah, you have a robot over there, too. Why not just dismantle it into scrap metal and dump it illegally!"

"terrible……"

The panda on the side trembled as he watched the anger rising between the two women.

"—"

Suddenly, a flash of light shot out from a distance and hit the panda on the back.

"Ow—"

The panda screamed and fell down.

"Senior Panda!!"

Nobara Kugisaki suddenly turned her head and exclaimed.

"That's a cursed corpse. It can't die."

A voice came from the woods nearby.

It was Mechamaru who came to support.

"It's just that I can't move for the time being. So, who did you say you wanted to demolish?"

"Wait a minute, Mechamaru."

At this time, Nishimiya Momo jumped off the tree trunk and looked at Kugisaki Nobara in front of her with a gloomy face.

"Let me teach this first-year student a lesson. Teach her about the hardships of Mayi-chan. And the significance of a woman being a sorcerer."

"I'm just kidding."

"!?"

Just when the two seemed to have secured victory, the panda lying on the ground suddenly stood up again.

boom--

He swung his fist and hit the mechanical pill in the face mercilessly.

"Do you like being in the spotlight so much? I should stay hidden and support you."

Obviously, he had already discovered the mechanical pill hiding in the woods, so he deliberately fell down to lure it out.

"We are all Cursed Corpses, so let's just get along well."

"A broken doll."

The mechanical pill seemed to be irritated and gritted his teeth.

"what do you know!?"

As he spoke, his arm suddenly exploded, revealing the ferocious claws inside.

"Oh my, has everyone forgotten that this is a competition to hunt cursed spirits?"

The panda looked at the other party's aggressive appearance calmly and complained lightly, with no fear on his face at all.
