Douluo: Adventure Begins from Wuhun City

Chapter 259: Getting Something for Nothing

Although Dai Mubai did not use his martial soul, his soul power surged and golden light burst out. He raised his legs and took three steps forward with his fist raised high.

When he was about to fall, he looked at Ning Rongrong's delicate and frail body and subconsciously retracted his strength.

But when Ning Rongrong's left arm, which was surrounded by colorful halo, blocked Dai Mubai's way, he suddenly felt an indescribable resistance, and his eyes trembled.

Although he knew that Ning Rongrong was different from other auxiliary soul masters, it was still a little difficult to understand when he faced her directly. How could this thin and tender body, which seemed to fall down at the slightest breeze, exert such powerful strength?

How on earth did she do it?
However, although he was puzzled, Dai Mubai now truly treated Ning Rongrong as a combat soul master of the same level. His left fist rarely moved forward and he raised his right fist again. This time, there was no reason to hold back and he smashed it down hard on Ning Rongrong's head.

Feeling threatened, although Ning Rongrong was confident, she would not be foolish enough to take it head-on.

She tapped the ground with her toes and moved her body sideways. Due to years of weight-bearing training and the speed improvement of her soul skills, Ning Rongrong's figure was like a ghost. Caught off guard, Dai Mubai's punch, which he had been preparing for, landed directly on the air.

The negative force he received after hitting the air caused the blood and energy in Dai Mubai's right arm to fluctuate, and his bones trembled, causing him to feel a little uncomfortable.

Ning Rongrong also took advantage of this gap, jumped high, and swept towards Dai Mubai's abdomen.

"boom!"

The long legs wrapped in loose training pants clearly made people feel weak and powerless, and there was no threat. But after being hit in the abdomen, Dai Mubai felt as if he was hit by a cannonball. His face suddenly turned ferocious, and his body kicked back several steps uncontrollably. He felt a numbness and spasm in his lower abdomen.

In this short period of time, Dai Mubai suffered a great loss.

But he also became completely serious in his heart, his fighting spirit rose, and he was full of unwillingness. He just felt that Ning Rongrong's attack was too confusing, which made him careless. He adjusted his state and rushed towards Ning Rongrong again.

Ning Rongrong did not back down either. She moved her feet quickly and faced Dai Mubai's next fierce attack with ease. Her movements were so smooth that people did not feel that she was fighting at all, but more like dancing.

Even while blocking, he could find Dai Mubai's flaws from time to time and cause him considerable damage.

After fighting for about half an incense stick of time, Dai Mubai couldn't help it and took several steps back, directly putting some distance between himself and Ning Rongrong.

At this moment, several deep bruises could be clearly seen on his exposed skin, and several black footprints also appeared on his originally white clothes.

His face had a changeable expression and he was grimacing, obviously feeling unwell.

Gu Yuena valued Ning Rongrong. Not only did she bring her rare medicinal herbs and supervise her long-distance running with weights, she also taught her all her fighting skills. From time to time, she would capture some weaker soul beasts and let Ning Rongrong fight with them so that she could accumulate enough experience.

So when facing Dai Mubai, who has an advantage in strength but not much, Ning Rongrong can be said to have the upper hand.

On the other hand, Dai Mubai felt extremely frustrated in this battle. His strength was not enough to crush the opponent, nor could his moves be broken. He was also unable to use his key martial spirit. He had no chance of winning at all and could only wave his hands in frustration.

"No need to fight, I lost!"

However, Yu Xiaogang on the side walked up to Dai Mubai with some dissatisfaction and said.

"Dai Mubai, what's wrong with you? Even if you didn't use your martial soul, you relied on your own strength and soul power to be defeated by an auxiliary soul master. This makes me doubt whether you, the so-called monster, are real!"

Hearing this, not to mention Ning Rongrong who was angry because Yu Xiaogang looked down on her and thought that she deserved to lose to Dai Mubai, even Dai Mubai had a gloomy face and was very dissatisfied in his heart. He no longer had any patience for this master.

It's easy for him to talk without any pain in his waist. He even thinks that this master whose soul power is not even at level 10 is nothing special!
He immediately said unhappily.

"Master, don't just stare at me. Please explain to me how Ning Rongrong's strength is almost the same as mine. Also, please point out what I did wrong in the battle just now. Is your role as a master just to criticize us students? I can do that, too!"

After hearing what Dai Mubai said, Yu Xiaogang felt choked and was unable to speak.

He did sum up his own set of theories. After all, he had read those books in the Spirit Hall in vain.

Moreover, he had also experienced traveling around the continent and fighting for life and death, so he still had some knowledge in his stomach.

But to be honest, Ning Rongrong's situation ultimately touched upon his blind spots in knowledge, and in his eyes, it was simply impossible for him to find out the flaws in Ning Rongrong's exquisite boxing skills that were taught to her by Gu Yuena herself. Obviously, it was somewhat unrealistic for him to point out Dai Mubai's own mistakes.

But he has been traveling around the continent for so many years, basically relying on this mouth, so he straightened his expression and spoke.

"Your problem is very obvious. From the beginning, you didn't take Ning Rongrong seriously. You let your guard down and put yourself at a disadvantage. You made one wrong move and then another. Ning Rongrong seized the opportunity and gradually suppressed you."

Although Yu Xiaogang did not point out the key point, these words still made Dai Mubai stunned, and he did not press him aggressively.

Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang quickly changed the topic and then arranged training matches for several other students.

As for these academies, except for Zhu Zhuqing who also left him confused, he finally found some familiar feelings in the other battles. He made a few comments from time to time, which did show some effect and reduced a lot of the academies' disdain and contempt for Yu Xiaogang.

As for Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, they were naturally ignored.

However, they did not go against Yu Xiaogang again and completed their respective training in silence.

As the sky gradually darkened, Yu Xiaogang managed to complete the day's teaching without any major incidents. Although he knew that the morale of the team was still low and it was difficult to convince them, he was unwilling to accept the result.

But we also understand that being able to maintain this superficial calm is already good enough, and we dare not make any more reckless advances or make obvious targeting.

In the following days, Yu Xiaogang's training went on steadily without any unexpected problems.

Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong seemed to be having fun and coping quite well. They were more focused on the training plan that Chen Yao taught them.

As for the other few people, under Yu Xiaogang's coordination, the atmosphere between them eased a little. They also felt some results of Yu Xiaogang's training and began to have some trust in him.

Yu Xiaogang was very satisfied with this progress, and felt that his prestige among these people was enough, so he once again set his sights on Ning Rongrong. On this day, during the usual gathering, Yu Xiaogang suddenly asked Ning Rongrong a question.

"Ning Rongrong, your strength is beyond that of an ordinary auxiliary spirit master, but I can see that this should be acquired through training. I wonder how you did it?"

Ning Rongrong raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this.

"Master Yu, what do you mean?"

Yu Xiaogang maintained a smile on his face and said.

"The power you possess is of great significance to auxiliary spirit masters. In our team, there is also Oscar, who is also an auxiliary spirit master. When facing the targeting of local combat spirit masters, he cannot protect himself properly like you do, so I hope you can help him."

Yu Xiaogang spoke with great righteousness, but in fact his eyes were full of envy for Ning Rongrong's power that came from nowhere.

In his opinion, although Ning Rongrong has a bad temper, she is still a child after all. If she is oppressed with this kind of collective glory, it is very likely that the other party will not be able to bear the pressure and will tell that method. On the contrary, he can add it to his own theory, making his name as a master truly famous in the mainland!
When Oscar heard this, he did not understand the deeper meaning of Yu Xiaogang's words. He just secretly glanced at Ning Rongrong, with a hint of desire and excitement in his eyes.

"laugh!"

But after Ning Rongrong heard this, she immediately sneered with disdain.

"That's a noble statement. There is such a training method. It is in the hands of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Spirit Hall. Do you need me to ask the Titled Douluo in the sect to come and teach you personally?"

Yu Xiaogang's face froze when he heard this.

If the Titled Douluo knew about this, wouldn't he, the master, become a corpse?
"Ahem, since you don't have any intention of sharing, forget it. After all, I am just considering our relationship as classmates and wanted to ask Oscar about it."

Even though he knew that he couldn't afford to offend the Titled Douluo, Yu Xiaogang still felt unwilling in his heart. His voice was full of sarcasm. He wanted to try again to see if he could make Ning Rongrong change her mind.

"If you ask, no problem. I can even make the decision to take it out."

Ning Rongrong wanted to mock again, but suddenly she thought of something, her expression changed, and her attitude slowed down.

"Oh? Can you take it out?"

Yu Xiaogang was delighted when he heard this. Oscar, who had been looking a little depressed, also raised his head unexpectedly.

"That's right, but this is our two unique training methods. Don't think you can get something for nothing!"

"What do you want?"

Yu Xiaogang's expression became a little strange. Ning Rongrong wanted to exchange? But what did he and his friends have that was worthy of this young lady's plot?
"Hehe, I think your disciple seems to have some skills in the strange footwork he performed in the previous battle. If he is willing to hand over that kind of footwork, then of course I will not be stingy."

A sly smile appeared on Ning Rongrong's face.

In fact, Chen Yao also had methods of practicing Ghost Shadow and Controlling Cranes and Capturing Dragons, but he was busy practicing at the time, and these two skills were mostly used in conjunction with hidden weapons.

If it is taken out separately, it actually doesn't have much effect, and Chen Yao doesn't take it seriously, so he simply didn't give it to Ning Rongrong.

But Chen Yao looks at this idea more from his own perspective.

Ning Rongrong, who is an auxiliary spirit master, saw how helpful this footwork was for auxiliary spirit masters when she saw Tang San perform the Ghost Shadow Mirage. It could definitely avoid a lot of damage and there was no need to rely entirely on the protection of combat spirit masters.

If it is brought back to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, it will definitely be given great attention!

"This"

After hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was delighted at first, but then he looked at Tang San with a somewhat conflicted expression.

Tang San's expression was not good at the moment. He wanted to refuse on the spot. After all, he regarded the rules of the Tang Sect in his previous life as more important than his life.

But facing Yu Xiaogang's expectant eyes, he couldn't remain indifferent. He was caught in a dilemma for a moment. He couldn't help but glare at Ning Rongrong fiercely, blaming all the reasons on Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong was indifferent to Tang San's malicious look. After all, it was the other party who needed to be exchanged, so she was not in a hurry.

Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing aside, was also staring at the master and disciple with a playful look, waiting for their decision.

Others don't know where Ning Rongrong's strength comes from, but doesn't she know?
Where did any special method of cultivation come from? All of it was fed to him by Gu Yuena mouthful by mouthful, and it was gone after he finished eating.

Do you really think the limitations of auxiliary soul masters are so easy to solve?
"Xiao San, how about teaching this step to Ning Rongrong? After I exchange it with you, you can learn from it. Maybe it can also help you increase your physical strength?"

Yu Xiaogang knew more or less about his student's personality, and knew how much he valued his own skills. Back then at Notting College, when he went to ask Tang San for advice, Tang San was also vague in his response.

It is probably not possible to get Tang San to use this technique under the pretext of helping a classmate, so the better option is to let some of the benefits of it be conferred on Tang San.

When Tang San heard this, his expression moved slightly.

Indeed, he had also seen the abilities of ordinary auxiliary soul masters, but Ning Rongrong was simply beyond common sense.

If he could get Ning Rongrong's method to enhance his physical strength, his strength would definitely increase by leaps and bounds. You know, many of his hidden weapons also require sufficient strength to be used!
Tang San's heart wavered a little, but in the end, he shook his head firmly.

In his heart, the rules of the Tang Sect were more important than his own life. Some feedback on his strength and Yu Xiaogang's request could not make him make up his mind to break his bottom line.

When Yu Xiaogang saw this, he knew he couldn't force it, so he could only look away regretfully, but his slightly moving eyes still flashed with some dissatisfaction with Tang San.

As for Ning Rongrong, she also felt a little regretful at the moment. She thought that she could get something for nothing today!
