Douluo Continent: My name is Lu Mingfei, and my martial soul is Lu Mingze.

This time, Lu Mingfei was smarter; he created distance beforehand and focused his attention.

Wang Dong rushed over again.

Lu Mingfei heard it and tried to dodge, but he was still punched in the shoulder.

Come again.

He was kicked in the thigh.

Come again.

He was struck in the chest and sent flying three meters away.

Lu Mingfei lay on the ground, staring at the sky, completely bewildered.

This isn't right.

Isn't Kamaitachi supposed to be the strongest Word of Power?

Isn't it said that once you have a domain, you can challenge those above you?

How come he still gets beaten up like a dog?

"Senior, are you alright?" Huo Yuhao ran over, looking worried.

"I'm fine." Lu Mingfei sat up and rubbed the spot where he had been slapped.

"I just can't quite figure it out."

"What can't you figure out?"

"I clearly heard his movements, so why couldn't I dodge?"

Huo Yuhao thought for a moment: "It's probably because your body can't keep up with your reactions. You can hear it, but you're not fast enough to dodge it."

Lu Mingfei remained silent.

He understands this principle, but he's unwilling to admit it.

His soul power is too low and his physical condition is too poor. Even with the Kamaitachi, it cannot make up for this gap.

It's like giving a three-year-old a peerless weapon; he still can't beat an adult.

"Again." Lu Mingfei stood up again.

"Again?" Wang Dong frowned. "You've already taken so many hits."

"I'm thick-skinned," Lu Mingfei said.

"continue."

Wang Dong glanced at him, said nothing, and rushed over again.

This time, Lu Mingfei didn't stand still and wait, but moved on his own initiative.

He wanted to use the Kamaitachi's senses to avoid Wang Dong's attack route in advance.

But it didn't work.

Wang Dong was too fast; even if he knew the direction in advance, he wouldn't have time to dodge.

Another punch landed on his face.

Lu Mingfei staggered a few steps, his nose stung, and he felt something flowing out.

He touched it; it was blood from his nose.

"Senior!" Huo Yuhao exclaimed anxiously, "Stop hitting me! Your nose is bleeding!"

"It's nothing, just a minor injury to the cricket." Lu Mingfei wiped the blood from his nose.

"Are you out of your mind?" Wang Dong snapped. "If you can't win, don't fight. Why insist on being a braggart?"

"I'm not being reckless," Lu Mingfei said. "I just want to give it a try."

"Try what?"

Lu Mingfei ignored him and got into position again.

Wang Dong looked at him, gritted his teeth, and didn't make a move.

"Huo Yuhao." Lu Mingfei turned his head. "Come here."

"Huh?" Huo Yuhao was taken aback.

"Come and hit me."

"I……"

"Stop talking nonsense, come on."

Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment, but still walked over.

He was much slower than Wang Dong, and Lu Mingfei could barely keep up.

He dodged the first punch.

He dodged the second punch.

The third punch landed on my arm, and I couldn't dodge it.

But at least it's not like fighting Wang Dong, where I couldn't dodge a single blow.

Lu Mingfei perked up.

"continue."

Huo Yuhao nodded and began to take things seriously.

Although his Spirit Eyes are primarily for support, his close-combat abilities are not weak either.

The two exchanged blows for more than a dozen rounds.

Lu Mingfei was hit seven or eight times, but he also dodged five or six of them.

This ratio, while still terrible, is at least better than when he fought Wang Dong.

"Stop," Lu Mingfei called out, panting heavily.

Lu Mingfei sat on the ground, his face slightly bruised and swollen from the sparring session, and his whole body ached.

He suddenly knelt on the ground, pointing to the sky and cursing.

"You have no heart! How could you betray me like this! What kind of strongest incantation is this? It's utterly useless!"

The sound echoed across the training ground.

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were both stunned.

"Senior..." Huo Yuhao wanted to say something.

Did I knock my senior brain out?

Just then, Lu Mingze's voice rang in Lu Mingfei's mind.

"Brother, how could you say that?"

Lu Mingfei was taken aback.

"How dare you say that! What kind of lousy incantation is this! It's completely useless!"

"How could it be useless?" Lu Mingze's voice was calm.

"The master of the Kamaitachi is a man who can fight against the polar bear king, a man whose abilities are worth a quarter of his life, and the strongest Word of Power that everyone has ever seen."

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment.

The king of the polar bears? Sounds incredibly powerful, and people are even willing to risk their lives for him.

Could it really be his own fault?

"Brother, you don't actually think you're inferior to him, do you?"

Lu Mingfei opened his mouth, as if to say something, but suddenly couldn't say anything.

Not as good as him?

Although Lu Mingfei is a good-for-nothing, when has he ever admitted to being inferior to others?

"How is that possible!" Lu Mingfei blurted out.

"How could I possibly be inferior to him!"

"Senior, what is this 'word of power' you just mentioned?" Huo Yuhao asked.

Lu Mingfei snapped out of his daze, thought for a moment, and decided to tell the truth.

After all, these two were his friends, so there was nothing to hide.

"I have awakened the power of words."

"Words of power?" Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong asked at the same time.

"Yes, it's a kind of innate ability," Lu Mingfei explained simply.

"The newly acquired one is called Kamaitachi, and it can sense everything around it through the wind."

"So you were able to dodge my attack just now because you heard it beforehand?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"right."

Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up: "Then this ability is very strong."

"What's the point of being strong?" Lu Mingfei said. "What's the use of being able to hear something but not being able to escape?"

"That's because your physical fitness can't keep up," Wang Dong said from the side.

"If you're fast enough, this ability is invincible."

"The problem is I'm not fast enough."

"Then let's train," Wang Dong said. "In a month, although our soul power won't increase much, we can train our speed."

Lu Mingfei looked at him and suddenly realized that what the kid said made sense.

He had only thought about using Kamaitachi to make a comeback, but he forgot that his physical condition was a fatal flaw.

Since Kamaitachi gave him the ability to predict, he should train his speed.

If we work together like this, it might actually work.

"How do we train?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Wang Dong thought for a moment and said, "I'll teach you."

"you?"

"What, you don't believe me?" Wang Dong snorted.

"I'm the fastest in the whole class."

Lu Mingfei glanced at him but didn't say anything.

That's true; Wang Dong's Light Goddess Butterfly is known for its speed.

"Okay," Lu Mingfei said. "Then I'll leave it to you."

Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting Lu Mingfei to agree so readily.

"You...you're not being sarcastic anymore?"

"Being witty is one thing, but business is business," Lu Mingfei said. "I'm not stupid; I know what's important."

Wang Dong glanced at him, her expression somewhat complicated.

"Okay, then I'll teach you."

Over the next few days, Lu Mingfei began a hellish training regimen.

I get up before dawn every morning and run ten laps to warm up.

Then Wang Dong taught him footwork and body movements, how to move the fastest, and how to change direction most flexibly.

In the afternoon, I sparred with Huo Yuhao to hone my reaction speed in real combat.

When I got back to the dorm that night, I was so tired that I fell asleep as soon as I lay down on the bed.

But the effect is also obvious.

Three days later, he was able to dodge half of Huo Yuhao's attacks.

Five days later, he was able to dodge most of Huo Yuhao's attacks.

A week later, Huo Yuhao found it much harder to hit him.

"You've improved so quickly, senior." Huo Yuhao wiped his sweat and said with a hint of admiration.

"That's because you're slow," Wang Dong said from the side.

Lu Mingfei ignored him and looked at Wang Dong: "Want to give it a try?"

Wang Dong raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure?"

"Sure."

Wang Dong walked over and got into position.

Then it suddenly accelerates.

Lu Mingfei heard the sound of the wind and dodged to the side.

Wang Dong's second punch followed immediately.

Lu Mingfei dodged it again.

The third punch, the fourth punch, the fifth punch...

Lu Mingfei dodged seven times in a row, but in the end he still couldn't keep up and was punched in the chest.

"Cough cough..." Lu Mingfei coughed, clutching his chest.

"You've dodged a lot more," Wang Dong said, a rare hint of admiration in his voice. "Much better than before."

Although Lu Mingfei was hit, he was still quite happy.

A week ago, he couldn't even dodge it once, but now he can dodge it seven times.

This rate of progress is not slow.

"Continue," Lu Mingfei said.

"Again?" Wang Dong frowned. "You've already practiced for six hours today."

"One more round."

Wang Dong glanced at him, said nothing, and then rushed over again.

Although he still lost, he could feel that he was improving.

And so, another week passed.

Lu Mingfei was already able to exchange more than a dozen moves with Wang Dong.

Although they will still get hit in the end, at least it's not a one-sided affair.

"Senior, you're getting more and more amazing," Huo Yuhao said.

"I'm still far from it. My current speed isn't fast enough. If Wang Dong goes all out, I estimate I still won't last three moves."

"Of course," Wang Dong said. "If I use my martial spirit, you won't be able to dodge a single move."

"Can you please stop discouraging me?"

I'm stating the facts.

Lu Mingfei was speechless.

You little brat, how dare you slap your senior Lu in the face like that? Just wait and see how the great god Lu deals with you when he obtains advanced Word of Power!
