chapter -16 Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it.

I'm most afraid of the sudden silence in the air.

Li Jing and Kong Wu stared at each other in confusion.

Both of them were thinking about the same question.

Why did this knife break so easily?

Among the people taking the exam, Yi Xiuzhu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Li Jing intently.

Kong Wu's steel sword is not an ordinary blade.

It is the standard equipment issued by the Auxiliary Inspection Section.

Compared with the standard instrument-level equipment distributed by the Inspection Bureau, the equipment of the Auxiliary Investigation Section is much more ordinary.

But even so, the equipment of the Fucha Branch is made of special materials and has the characteristics of being able to contain spiritual energy and enhance the strength of the blade.

Ordinary blades cannot contain spiritual energy.

It is true that Kong Wu did not infuse spiritual energy into the blade to make the steel sword exert its true power.

However, the steel knife itself is built on the basis of being able to hold spiritual energy. Even if it is not infused with spiritual energy, its blade is far stronger than that of ordinary knives. It does not mean that it will break if it breaks.

Kong Wu didn't use his true strength and just slashed casually.

The knife broke.

The problem can only be with Li Jing.

Just as he was thinking, Lu Yangcheng, who had also completed the practical test, spoke up.

"There's something about Li Jing. He should have learned some kind of defensive spell with an anti-shock effect."

There were people present who had at least the second level of strength.

They could also see the problems that Yi Xiuzhu could see.

Hearing Lu Yangcheng speak, everyone was suddenly stunned and looked at Li Jing with strange eyes.

Defensive spells with counter-shock effects are not uncommon, but they are very difficult to practice.

For ordinary defensive spells, just perform normal operation exercises.

Defense spells with counter-shock effects are different. You have to continuously take hits to become more proficient.

The process is similar to the horizontal kung fu training in martial arts dramas, which is extremely masochistic and slow.

It takes days, months, and constant beatings.

Practicing such spells is cumbersome, and progress is slow.

If you want to really achieve practical results, you have to specialize in them.

For those who have the ability to enter the second realm, second realm spells are just an early transition. Who would be willing to specialize in a single defensive spell?

Come back.

The defensive power of defensive spells with counter-shock effects is not necessarily better than that of defensive spells of the same level, and some are even worse than the latter.

Its characteristic is only that it has an anti-shock effect.

There is only one kind of person who can specialize in his own way: the hard-headed alien.

Unlike others, Yi Xiuzhu heard Lu Yangcheng make a sound and glanced at him as if he were a fool.

"Don't take everything for granted. If this guy named Li Jing really learned a defensive spell with an anti-shock effect, do you think Examiner Kong would be unprepared beforehand?"

How could Lu Yangcheng have thought that this guy would suddenly confront him?

He frowned and looked over.

He lost his temper when he met the examiner from the Third Realm.

How could he lose his temper when meeting candidates at the same level?

But when Lu Yangcheng thought about it carefully, Yi Xiuzhu was right.

The spells that the candidates present need to be tested are all clearly registered in the auxiliary examination system.

Kong Wu knew this beforehand and had no reason not to be on guard.

Reluctantly suppressing his displeasure, Lu Yang became enlightened.

"Then tell me, how did Li Jing break the steel sword?"

"The defensive methods he learned may have reached great perfection."

Yi Xiuzhu whispered.

"No matter what spell it is, as long as the proficiency reaches the chamber level or above, there will be a qualitative change every time it reaches a higher level. When reaching the Great Perfection, the power can break through at least one realm limit."

He added.

"At least in my opinion, the steel knife in Examiner Kong's hand was not broken by the shock, but because the target Li Jing was too hard and the forceful collision caused it to break."

Lu Yangcheng listened to Yi Xiuzhu's story, thought for a moment, and raised questions.

"I understand the truth, but is there really anyone in this world who can practice second-level magic to perfection?"

"There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people."

Yi Xiuzhu said it was neither salty nor cool.

"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it."

"..."

Lu Yangcheng frowned.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that there was something in Yi Xiuzhu's words that was aimed at him.

The two people here are talking.

On the other side, Kong Wu looked suspicious.

He heard Yi Xiuzhu's words.

He also had doubts in his mind.

According to the information registered on the tablet, the defensive spells Li Jing learned were the most advanced body-protecting spiritual clothes among the second-level defense spells.

The more advanced the spell, the more difficult it is to practice.

Li Jing's registration was only at the junior level, so it can be considered that he was hiding something.

But to say that his body-protecting spiritual clothes are of the Dzogchen level is a bit outrageous, to be honest.

After looking at the broken knife in his hand, Kong Wu chose to give up thinking.

In any case, Li Jing's defensive spell passed the test.

The specific level of proficiency is not important.

The practical assessment he is responsible for is only to confirm whether the candidates' registration information is fraudulent. It is common for candidates to hide their secrets.

Ultimately, what you learn is a relatively private matter.

I really care about it.

I'm afraid there are very few of the candidates here who don't hide their secrets.

After all, the registration information they filled in was only to meet the entry-level supplementary examination threshold. Only a fool would take out everything he had learned and write it down clearly.

Throwing away the broken knife, Kong Wu rubbed his forehead where the knife had just hit him.

"Demonstrate the escape technique you have learned."

Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Kong Wu hadn't paid attention to the "accident" just now.

His protective spiritual clothing was so hard that it was beyond his expectations.

The main reason is that he has never used the protective spiritual clothing before, so he doesn't know how strong it is.

It didn't matter to him that his proficiency was exposed.

Anyway, even if he is exposed, it will only attract attention, and he does not need to respond to any questions.

The key is that he is worried that Kong Wu will call him to lose money.

After learning the air escape method, he only had more than 4,000 in his pocket. What should he pay for it?

Turning his head and glancing at Yi Xiuzhu in the crowd, Li Jing carefully used the air escape technique.

What Yi Xiuzhu said just now was somewhat of a lesson to him.

It turns out that Dzogchen-level spells can break through at least one realm limit.

This touched upon Li Jing's knowledge blind spot.

But in his opinion.

The reason why my body-protecting spiritual clothes are so hard is not simply a matter of proficiency. There is also a reason why spiritual power is more energy efficient than spiritual energy.

He was aware of this issue as early as last night when Chen Yuran questioned his thick palm thunder.

At this moment, Li Jing also learned a lesson by using the escape technique.

The escape technique is a passive skill, just like the body-protective spirit clothes.

Its characteristic is that there is no need for him to use it deliberately; the spell itself is always running through his body.

It's not up to him to decide how much effort he puts into it.

He had just learned the escape technique an hour ago, so he didn't know what it was like.

It's right to be careful.

Using the escape technique, Li Jing's figure slowly grew taller.

Feeling that it was almost done, he chose to hover in mid-air.

Seeing his steady figure hovering in mid-air, Feng Wu on the ground nodded.

"Okay, come down."

When Li Jing landed, Kong Wu took more than ten steps back.

"Target me and demonstrate the attack spell Palm Thunder you have learned."

    "Target you, the examiner?"

Li Jing raised his eyes in shock.

"Fight if you are told. Don't waste time. There are many people waiting behind you."

Kong Wu said it impatiently.

"You are only in the early stages of the second realm; you can't hurt me."

"..."

Li Jing.

Think about it: Palm Thunder is an active skill, and you can control how much power you use.

Based on his strength at the early stage of the second realm, even if the Dzogchen-level palm thunder can break through the realm limits, it is estimated that it will not be able to hurt Kong Wu.

Li Jing hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and struck out with a palm.

"Bang!"

A lightning bolt as thick as a little finger flashed and shot out of his palm.

Kong Wu raised his eyebrows when he saw this.

This Li Jing has hidden a lot!

Look at the thickness of the thunder in this palm; it is at least the level of a home invasion.

The thunder in the palm of Xiaocheng level is just an electric arc, and it can never be of this scale.

Without thinking much, Kong Wu calmly raised his hand and pressed against the palm thunder that was coming straight towards him.

It's too late, but it's soon.

Palm thunder hit his palm.

At this moment, Kong Wu's expression changed.

The lightning that was supposed to dissipate immediately after hitting his hand, instead of dissipating, actually broke through his defense.

By the time he realized he wanted to defend himself seriously, it was already too late.

"Fuck!"

Kong Wu only had time to curse. He twitched on the spot, straightened his body, and fell down.

"Bang!"

There was silence in the open space.

"..."

All candidates.

"..."

Li Jing was the instigator.
