Sparring With Senior Brother

Tang Ya then immediately grabbed his wrist and spoke with a wronged expression, "I'm not allowing you to flick my forehead anymore, this is offending your superior."

Changing the subject, Tang Ya decided to asked Bei Bei a question. "Right, so do you think that little Yuhao will be able to last at Shrek Academy?"

Bei Bei then shook his head and say, "It's too early to tell if he would managed to last that long or not at Shrek Academy, it will all depend on his skills and the amount of effort he put into training his weirdly mutated body spirit essence."

"All I can say is that, if he can really manage to last there, and stay for the full twelve years, then his future achievements and accomplishments would be even far greater than mine." Bei Bei said with a slight smile, as he looked at bit hopeful for Huo Yuhao's bright looking future.

Tang Ya was a bit startled at Bei Bei's response. "I didn't think that you've had such a high enough evaluation of him."

Bei Bei then continues to smile, whilst putting on an older faunt, and replied. "My junior brother's mutated spirit essence is indeed quite extraordinary. You will understand what I mean if I were to give you an example."

"There's already been a slight significant difference between the first and the second time that he had used his spiritual detection sharing ability." Bei Bei said.

He then goes in depth in his explanation, "This means that his mastery of the skill isn't really that high yet, it's already a huge help in contributing to our cause. I can't imagine what it will eventually become."

"Furthermore, if what he's said is true, it seems that this skill can still evolve. If his future spirit skills are all like this, he will definitely be able to reach the pinnacle of mental attribute control type system spirit masters." Bei Bei said so with absolute confidence.

Tang Ya said to Bei Bei. "It's just that, his self defense skills are quite lacking. It will remain like this until he reaches a certain level of cultivation, too."

Bei Bei then replies, with a hearty smile, "No, you're wrong. He won't need to protect himself, because, even if he merely has the skill that he just used, he is destined to have no lack of companions beside him."

Huo Yuhao's cultivation period lasted even longer than Tang Ya and Bei Bei expected.

His period of cultivation unexpectedly lasted all the way until noon of this afternoon, whilst Huo Yuhao was in deep meditation, Bei Bei then decided to give Li Yan some advice in combat training to pass the time.

"Do you want to have a light sparring session with me?" Bei Bei asked Li Yan.

"It would certainly be a great opportunity for you to practice against a live opponent, so that you could gauge your skill, whilst at the same time, I could give you some pointers as we fight." Bei Bei said.

"Okay!" Li Yan said, giving a surefire response.

Bei Bei then readily gets into his own stance, with one arm behind his back, as a handicap, he will not used any of spiritual energy in order to make it a fair fight.

Like in an action martial arts movie, Bei Bei then motions his right hand to start the fight, taunting Li Yan into starting the fight.

Without a moment of hesitation, his body moving first before conciously thinking, Li Yan immediately rushes towards Bei Bei's location, and then throws a quick short punch towards Bei Bei's face.

However, Bei Bei easily caught Li Yan's fist with his right hand, as Li Yan then follows up with another straight punch, utilising his spare other hand that was not obstructed.

Bei Bei having already expected this, in an attempt to block Li Yan's attack, then pulls the caught fist to the side, as he raises his left leg to block Li Yan's fist attack.

He immediately lets go of Li Yan's caught hand, and retreats a few steps backwards.

Since this is a spar to test Li Yan's skill in combat, his endurance and fighting techniques, not actual fight, Bei Bei had been on the defensive as he observed first hand how Li Yan truly handles in a fight.

Li Yan then resumes his assault, charging into the fight, and throwing a straight punch at Bei Bei.

Bei Bei easily deflected Li Yan's punch, with the back of his hand, whilst changing the directions of where Li Yan's punches are landing.

In the midst of the sparring, Bei Bei thought to himself, 'Although, Little Yan is certainly lacking in fighting experiences, but his battle senses is certainly developed for his age.'

After a couple of punches, onced Bei Bei have gotten used to Li Yan's fighting style. Li Yan, on the spot, then decided to change up his attack pattern.

'I need to change my fighting style, I can't just keep throwing punches or else I won't improve.' Li Yan decided to change his mindset.

He threw a straight punch towards Bei Bei's face, but Bei Bei effortlessly blocked the attempt to strike his face, as Li Yan then follows up with a fast swift kick towards Bei Bei's side.

Bei Bei's eyes momentarily dilated, revealing a surprised expression.

He didn't expect for Li Yan to follow up with a secondary attack, after a straight punch, Bei Bei smiles.

'He's improving.' Bei Bei thought to himself.

Li Yan's kick landed on Bei Bei's side producing a sharp impactful sound, as his wooden sandals that he wore then dirty Bei Bei's clean clothes.

Before Li Yan could even retract his foot, Bei Bei reacted quickly, without hesitation, he caught Li Yan's right leg in between his armpit.

"Tch!" Li Yan revealed an unsatisfied face.

He thought of doing a spinning roundhouse kick with his left leg, by dropping his right leg down and rotating his body in order to increased the strength output put into of his left kick.

However, Li Yan then thought against it, as he is not athletic enough in order to perform that skilled move.

It would looked extremely dumb if he manages to fail performing the spinning roundhouse kick, and what if Bei Bei then decided to let go of his leg, then wouldn't he lose balance and fall over, whilst doing the splits.

Li Yan then decided to bend his right leg, thereby forcing Bei Bei to move a step or two closer towards himself, within striking distance.

Li Yan attempted to throw a punch at Bei Bei, but Bei Bei had already anticipated ahead, as he then lets go of Li Yan's caught leg.

With his arm freed, Bei Bei then lightly places his right palm over Li Yan's chest, and gently pushes him.

Li Yan immediately loses his balance, as his body quickly tumbles over and falls to the ground. He landed hardly on his butt.

"Ow." Li Yan loudly exclaimed, whilst squinting his eyes.

Bei Bei then in returned asked, "Little Yan, why did you hesitate?"

"Ummm..." Li Yan's brain was on the fritz, as he then took some time to come up with an answer. "I was stuck, okay."

"Stuck." Bei Bei repeated.

"I didn't know what to do after you caught my foot with your armpit." Li Yan said to Bei Bei.

"You do have a point." Bei Bei was being sympathetic, empathising with Li Yan's point of view. "But, nevertheless, if you don't do anything. It will momentarily opened up a good opportunity for your opponent to strike, whilst your wide open."

"Yes, senior brother." Li Yan replied, with a dejected smile, as he slowly got up from the ground.

He lightly wipes the dirt off of his shorts, that got on him when he fall down.

Bei Bei lectured Li Yan, teaching him to think ahead before he acts in order to not be caught in the same situation as he just did.

"So how about round 2?" Li Yan suggested.

Bei Bei wasn't being forceful, as he said, "If that is what you want, I can easily go for another round or two."

But, this time, Li Yan decided to even out the playing field, compensating the difference in strength and fighting capabilites, by summoning Sun Wu from his spirit grimoire.

Li Yan thought that he could overcome his senior brother Bei if he were to charge in with Sun Wu.

Sun Wu then appears out from Li Yan's spirit grimoire, materialising from a ball of white light, as it appeared energetically and healthy in front of Li Yan having completely recovered the injuries sustained from previous sparring session.

'Sun Wu, execute the ghost shadow perplexing track movement technique that you've learnt.' Li Yan spoke to Sun Wu through the mental link that they shared with each other.

'I want you to confused senior brother Bei with the unpredictiveness of the ghost shadow perplexing track movement technique, and when I attack him, at the same time, you will attack senior brother Bei from behind, his blind spot.' Li Yan instructed Sun Wu of the strategy he came up with on the spot in order to combat Bei Bei.

"Ugh." Sun Wu nodded his head having sort of gotten the message.

Execute the ghost shadow perplexing track movement technique, distracting Bei Bei with the perplexity of the movement technique, whilst the both of them attack Bei Bei at the same time.

One was acting as the bait in order to draw Bei Bei's attention, whilst the other one was sneaking up from behind and attack Bei Bei's blind spot, outside from his field of vision.

Once the second round training session with Bei Bei has started, Li Yan and Sun Wu immediately put the plans they have thought up into motion.

They split up and quickly encircled Bei Bei from both sides, whilst utilising the ghost shadow perplexing track movement technique to their advantage, thereby making their paths of attack unpredictable.

'Now.' Li Yan gave the order through their mental link.

Sun Wu then rushes in from the front and throws a straight punch towards Bei Bei with all his strength, without utilising spiritual power to strengthen himself.

Bei Bei reacted by crossing his arms together, and forming a sort of guard, as he then blocks Sun Wu's blow.

Sun Wu's punches at full strength, whether infused with spiritual power or not, is enough to shatter a full grown ordinary adult male's arms if they were to attempt to guard against his attack.

The impact was quite strong, as it send Bei Bei's body flying backwards a couple step before he quickly regains balance over himself.

And Li Yan didn't let the chance slipped by as he also struct Bei Bei.

Li Yan's punch was much softer than Sun Wu's, but it still packs quite a punch.

Bei Bei was caught by surprise, but nevertheless, he was certainly impressed by their teamwork.

'I'm impressed. Little Yan has certainly improved from the first bout. He and his familiar teamwork is almost near impenetrable.' Bei Bei thought so to himself, with a discerning eye.

He smiles tentatively, as a flicker of purple light is then reflected within the eyes of Bei Bei, as he instinctively activated his purple demon eyes skill.

Although, Bei Bei isn't able to see the path of which the attack is launching from his blind spot.

The punches that were thrown out by both Li Yan and Sun Wu has begun to slow down a bit, in slow motion, with clear depth perceptiveness when in the air.

This is thanks to the Bei Bei's purple demon eyes being in the second stage, the detailed realm.

The purple demon eyes in the detailed realm is able to provide with improves vision, and even further grants the user a temporary mental state in which where everything slows down. Allowing someone to react in the shortest possible time.

Also able to see Spirit Masters' amount of spirit power, provided the spirit power of the target is lower than the user's own.
