Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest

Chapter 120 Today's Training
It was not Yan Yu's original intention to hang Zhao Yuanzhen with the hairpin.

The main thing is that this evil witch will go crazy if she is not punished for three days. We have to temper her temper to prevent her from being too rebellious and refusing to obey. This is a very normal educational method and there is no need to be surprised.

As the saying goes, "What comes easily is not cherished."

First whet her appetite, and then give it to her after the hairpin is exchanged from the Dingbei Army. This way she will think that someone is kind to her... If it is agreed to be given to her from the beginning, she will just think it is what she deserves and will not care at all.

When Yan Yu arrived at the team training ground, he saw Chen Lingyun playing the Wood Element Music Spell, holding her beloved vinyl record player in one hand, looking for a place to put it down.

"What are you doing?" Yan Yu asked in confusion.

"I'm looking for a suitable place to put my phonograph." Chen Lingyun said with a smile.

"Why are you playing the phonograph?" Yan Yu frowned and asked, then revealed a malicious look, "I understand, you're using it as a target for your sword, right?"

"Haha." Chen Lingyun put down the phonograph and suddenly asked, "Did you hear it?"

"No, please tell me."

"The higher-ups are planning to expand the team in the near future," Chen Lingyun said with a smile. "The initial plan is to double the number."

"Hmph, only double it?" Yan Yu said with disdain, "Why not just implement a mercenary system in one go? Allow all monks to form teams freely, change military missions to a bidding system, pay rewards for successful missions, and fines for failures."

"That sounds quite interesting." Chen Lingyun pretended not to notice his sarcasm and thought seriously, "If the bottom-level control completely collapses in the future, we can do this and use money and power to win over the hearts of the common cultivators."

Of course, the cost is self-evident. The complete mercenaryization of civilian monks is undoubtedly the greatest destabilizing factor in public security. This system was adopted because there was no other option—the civilian monks were too powerful to be controlled. The only option left was to cede some power to them, allowing them to fight among themselves and prevent rebellion.

Many developed countries in the West in previous lives later adopted this mercenary system. The strongest Transcendents were hired by multinational corporations and countries, the second-best by local councils and large corporations, the third-best formed private security companies to take on jobs, the fourth-best worked as guerrillas for security companies, and the worst-performing became part of local gangs, demanding protection fees from civilians.

The social classes in these countries did not change dramatically. The upper class consolidated their status by hiring great superhumans, and the middle-class communities could also hire superhumans to protect their property... This "coexistence era" lasted for about ten years, until some great superhumans realized that "working is not as good as starting a business, and waiting for you to get paid is not as good as taking it yourself."

Given Chen Lingyun's intelligence, there was no need to elaborate on these matters. Therefore, Yan Yu had no intention of continuing the discussion and simply asked about the actual matter:

"How's your ghost-controlling skills going?"

"Not bad." Chen Lingyun snapped her fingers, and suddenly five big dogs appeared on the ground, circling around Yan Yu.

Yan Yu looked carefully and found that the breeds of these five dogs were actually different. They were Border Collie, Golden Retriever, Samoyed, Husky, and Lu Guo's Pastoral Yellow Dog.

"Why dogs?" Although these five ghosts have the ability to change into various forms, Yan Yu really doesn't understand what Chen Lingyun's intention is of "turning ghosts into dogs".

"Because I don't like cats." Chen Lingyun smiled faintly, "Don't you know the reason?"

"That's not what I'm asking... Never mind." Yan Yu decided not to delve into it.

After all, the five ghosts have turned into five dogs, which means that she has completely refined them and can use them at will.

As for upgrading the five dogs, that cannot be achieved by relying on daily training.

"Alright." Yan Yu nodded and said, "The Five Ghosts are very useful control-type ghosts. However, a normal ghost-controlling cultivator also needs an output-type ghost and a self-protection type ghost... Anyway, we'll talk about this later. For now, just practice the routine of commanding ghosts."

"Okay." Chen Lingyun snapped her fingers, and the Border Collie ran to the phonograph with a record in its mouth, put on the record, wagged its tail a few times, and pushed the needle onto the record with its paw.

Yan Yu:………………

I want you to practice fighting skills, not let you be served and cared for by ghosts!
If you think about it carefully, if it can be used in daily life, it shouldn't go wrong in combat, right? Just as Yan Yu was pondering, he saw Lin Ning, Su Yunjin, and Zhao Yuanzhen, three girls, swiping their cards in from outside.

"What are we practicing today?" Seeing the captain was also in the training ground, Lin Ning came over and asked, "I've been having some problems with swordsmanship lately. Yan Yu, can you help me take a look?"

"Sure." Yan Yu was a swordsman in his previous life. Although he became a puppeteer in this life, his swordsmanship experience is still there. It is no problem for him to instruct Lin Ning. "Try to show me a few moves and see where the problem is."

Lin Ning nodded upon hearing this, and then wielded the Green Bamboo Sword to attack Yan Yu, but he easily blocked it with the Huangting Sword.

After a few attacks and defenses, Yan Yu immediately realized that Lin Ning's problem was the lack of variety in her swordsmanship.

It wasn't simply because she hadn't learned sword techniques, but rather that she lacked even the most basic adaptability. For example, if her frontal attack was blocked by her opponent, she wouldn't immediately think of switching to a flank attack, but instead would repeatedly attempt a frontal assault... There was a sense of steadfast, unyielding, and steadfast beauty.

Maybe it’s because I have been doing exercises since I was a child.

Yan Yu dueled with her in swordplay, and the battle lasted for nearly an hour. Lin Ning's eyes were blurry, her legs were shaking, her head was dizzy, and her hands were shaking. She kept thinking that she was an idiot who couldn't use a sword, and she would probably say goodbye to swordplay in this life.

Seeing that Lin Ning's condition was too bad, no matter how much she crammed herself, she would not be able to continue to gain experience, so Yan Yu asked her to sit aside and rest for a while.

Look at others:
Chen Lingyun sat on the single sofa opposite, drinking coffee leisurely. The five dogs sat in a row behind the sofa, not saying a word.

Su Yunjin sat on a bench beside the training ground, her legs pressed together. A paper book lay open across her lap, and she was reading intently.

Zhao Yuanzhen sat next to her, wearing headphones and watching funny videos on her mobile phone, occasionally making silly country girl-like giggles.

Yan Yu:………………

Why do I feel like I've entered a daily yuri anime about a young girl?

We are the strongest Yanyu team in the world! How can we all be so lazy and quiet?!

He pointed his sword calmly, and the Huangting Sword suddenly rushed towards Chen Lingyun.

Chen Lingyun was completely relaxed, savoring her coffee. She wasn't very good at dealing with emergencies like this. By the time she realized what was happening, the sword had already reached her. Terrified, she quickly closed her eyes, ducked her head, and cast the Elephant Mantra. Subconsciously, she raised her coffee cup like a shield to block the Huangting Sword's sharp edge.

However, Huang Tingjian only made a feint, circled in front of her, and then turned around to kill Su Yunjin who was beside her.

Su Yunjin jumped up from the bench and quickly used his magical speed to run away, while dodging and tucked the novel under his armpit.

Zhao Yuanzhen was originally watching a video, but the people around her suddenly disappeared. When she raised her head, Huang Tingjian had already arrived in front of her - but the demon girl from the Demon Sect was experienced in fighting, so how could she be scared by such a little trick?

She threw her phone down and rolled over. When she stood up, she had already made the sword-controlling hand gestures. The Yinfeng Sword was quickly unsheathed and intercepted the Huangting Sword that was still chasing her!
"What are you doing!" Zhao Yuanzhen shouted angrily.

"This is the training ground!" Yan Yu showed no shame at all for attacking without warning. He just said confidently, "Once you enter the training ground, you have to train!"

"If I see you drinking coffee, reading novels, or playing with your phones again... I'll assume you're lacking training and give you some real-world experience!"

Zhao Yuanzhen was so angry that he pinched his sword technique and urged the Yinfeng Sword to kill Yan Yu directly, shouting:

"Don't be afraid, sisters! Let's beat him together!"
