After decided to fight the man in red, he walked toward him without much hesitation. There's no use hesitate over something like this. At most he would lose and think of another way to earn more points.
The man in red looks at Tian Feng who was approaching him and recognize that this is a kid who has participated in the competition a few days ago. "He has come to try out his skill again. Hehe, I also want to test his strength."
The man in red was actually a friend of Liu Liqi and on that day after the battle ended, Luo Liqi told him how he thought that the kid was odd and have a strange skill. But he didn't think much of it, however today he had a chance so he might as well try it to see if what Liqi told him was the truth.
Tian Feng finally arrived in front of the man, he clasped his hand then said "Senior! My name is Tian Feng and I would like to challenge you. Please accept my challenge."
The man in red is Xiya Tifong. He seems to be 18 just like Liu Liqi and he has red hair as well as red clothes. He's red all over his body. This man like red too much that even his sword is red in colour. His gloves and boots are the only white pieces on his body.
He laughed and replied in an amusing tone. "Hey kid! Normally I wouldn't accept the challenge without a bet.
However, today I'll make an exception for you since I also want to challenge you and I guessed that you don't have any Energy Pill as you have just entered the academy a few days ago.
I, Xiya Tifong will accept your challenge. Come!"
"In that case, I thank you senior." Before his voice faded down, he already moved from his original location toward the back of Tifong.
He knows that he can't fight head on and only with a sneak attack like this would he have some chance of winning.
As soon as he moved, his arm was shrouding with whitish blue electricity Qi and forming a robotic looking fist. He punches out toward Tifong's back with his full strength.
Tifong had an astounding look on his face. This kid sure is interesting but when he noticed the strange Qi, he thought that it's slightly different from normal lightning skill. To think that a kid could already fuse two skills into one attack.
Tifong drove his Qi trying to neutralize the other party attack however to his shocked, he discovered that his Qi form had transformed into the other party Qi form and he felt electrified all over his body.
Tifong went numb for a few seconds before he could transform his Qi back to normal. In these few seconds, if the kid wanted to kill him, he would die a few times already.
He lost. He lost because he underestimated his opponent. If he didn't stand still to face the attack, no matter how strong the opponent skill was, it's useless if it can't deliver the blow.
However, Tian Feng didn't think he could kill the other party just because he can't move a few second unless he uses his Nirvana Sword.
Besides, he discovered that if his opponent didn't stay still to receive his strike, he wouldn't even be able to touch his opponent at all. When he uses this skill on Li'er and Da Jing previously, she immediately fell down and would even die if he didn't help.
On the other hand, Xiya Tifong only stunned for a few seconds before he converted his Qi back.
The difference of two realms is clear. The reason Tifong could convert his Qi back was due to him having two sources of energy, his Qi and possibly his soul or it might be because he made use of the atmosphere energy or something similar.
But one thing is for sure, Li'er only had one source of energy and it was her Qi, once it's all converted, it's hard for her who didn't understand the Qi to control it. However, if she were to know of the lightning attack, she might be able to save herself.
Thinking about this, he shook his head helplessly. It's not that he doesn't want to attach his electrical nature to the soul or the atmosphere but he can't do it at the moment. Before reaching the next realm, he can't manipulate his atmosphere and before spiritual realm, he can't do it with soul either.
While Tian Feng was thinking of all of this, time has only passed for a few breaths. Tifong clasped his hand and said with a smile "I've lost."
"Ding... obtained 1000 points"
There's a point system in sparing arena. If you win a fight against someone of your own level, you will earn 1 glory point and if you win against someone from one realm above you, another zero will add to the point.
For example, if Tian Feng wins a fight against Li'er, he would get 1 glory point but if he wins against Xiya Tifong, he will get 10 glory points.
One glory point can exchange for 100 energy pills so he got another 1000 energy pills which can be exchanged for 1000 system points. It's a double reward.
What a good place to earn points!
Just that he would have to win 450 more battles and he barely won one today using surprise elements.
While he was walking back to Li'er, he noticed that there's a group of freshmen that have just arrived here too. Li'er seems to have already noticed that as well.
"Li'er, are you going to spar with them?" Arriving in front of Li'er, he asked.
"Yes. Last time I fight with you, I have yet to test all of my skills." Li'er replied casually.
"Alright! Go then... I'll be the one watching this time..."
But just as Li'er was about to go, he suddenly thought of an idea. [My system is similar to that of a game system. In the game, there's a party function which allows players to shared experience points. If there's someone to help him earn points, wouldn't it be faster?]
Yuki: "Feng Feng! You can party with her and if she won the battle, you'll get the points."
[Really? Then how to party with her?]
"You can either use the interface or ask me to do it for you. Then there will be an interface appear in her mind confirming her join. After she joined, she will be able to see your state. You can also see hers."
[Then wouldn't that make her aware of the system presence?]
"Yes, if you want to hide it then you have to spend points upgrading the party function."
[How much?]
"50000. After upgrading, you will be able to hide the interface from her. Using voice to confirm her join instead of dialogue."
[Forget it.]
"By the way, why would you hide me from her? Afraid she misunderstood? I can change my voice, you know?"
[...Yuki! are you joking?]
"hehehe"
By this time, Li'er has already challenged a freshman. Their battle is starting. Li'er moves swiftly with her sword, she executes a diagonal slash toward her opponent while closing in to perform an elbow strike while her opponent is still off balanced from dodging the earlier slash.
Not staying still after the strike, she executes another vertical slash and as a finishing slash, she imbues her Qi into the sword to increase effective range. The sword approaching the other party in a slow yet at the same time, her opponent feel that something is restraining him and he can't dodge it.
When the sword attacks him, there seems to be a force that drawing him toward the sword. When the sword was about an inch away from him, he quickly admits defeat. Li'er immediately stops her attack as soon as she heard that her opponent admitted defeat.
The boy didn't expect that he would lose within three strikes like this. He quickly left, not staying to be embarrassed.
Tian Feng was watching with sparkling eyes. He didn't expect that Li'er Divine Sword Skill has already reached level 6. Lately, he didn't get to practice his sword skill at all.
Only now does he remember that Li'er was also a genius and if not for the system, he would not be able to win against her.
When he saw that this is an easy fight, he wants to challenge them too but they also turned to leave with the boy.
In his earlier battle, Tian Feng Divine Punch has already levelled up and it's now level 2. Li'er went back to her room already. Now he's looking for a second battle, but he realized a new problem. He could only fight at most 20 battles a day even if he fights continuously, it wouldn't increase much.
At this rate, it would take him several days to earn enough points. Besides he didn't have confidence that he would win another battle.
He stopped looking for a second battle and left in hope that he would catch up with Li'er.
