Chapter 136

However, despite their fierce cries, not a single evil spirit dared to pounce on them.

"What's going on? Are they all Earthbound Spirit?"

Dekomori Sanae and Nibuya Morika realized this, this was their first thought.

"No, no, they are wary, even..."

As someone with impeccable acting skills, Natsukawa Masuzu saw something different in it.

Beneath that seemingly vicious and twisted face, some primal human emotions still remain, such as the fear of powerful things.

"Natsukawa, your observations in this area are indeed very keen."

Hasegawa Izumi nodded approvingly.

"Just as spirits are interested in humans with strong life force, they are also quite sensitive to spiritual power. This is usually the most direct way for them to distinguish between strong and weak spiritual forces. Now I am displaying my spiritual pressure to make them feel a sufficient threat."

Since he didn't release his spiritual pressure directly onto the girls, they didn't feel it very directly.

The stronger the spiritual pressure, the stronger the spiritual power.

During this period of spiritual practice, his inner light shone through, and he became more refined and virtuous.

In the perception of these evil spirits, the spiritual pressure he released seemed to make the surrounding air heavy, like a human trapped in the deep sea, unable to extricate himself, and instinctively feeling fear.

"So, if one can completely conceal their spiritual power and pressure, wouldn't it be possible to become invisible in front of spirits?"

Nibuya Morika quickly realized something.

"That's right, but the operational skills required are exceptionally difficult."

He nodded, then offered his suggestion.

"So, how are you going to fight them next? I suggest you act according to your abilities. Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle."

The girls were always humble in his presence.

"Based on Dekumori's intuition, a one-on-one Death should be no problem."

Dekomori Sanae assessed the situation and said...

The aura of these evil spirits is quite direct, without any sense of concealment. They can easily judge whether they pose a threat based on their enhanced intuition.

"Club President, this is my first time fighting these things, and I have no experience. So could you please let me choose one to fight?"

Natsukawa Masuzu spoke in a sweet voice, clasping her hands together in prayer.

"In the long history of magic wars, magic related to the soul is relatively rare, and these evil spirits are clearly different from the undead creatures I know. So let's study how to deal with them first. This is my survival rule as an ancient magician."

Nibuya Morika's eyes flickered, trying her best to appear calm and composed, like an old man.

"Then let's do it your way."

The reduction in spiritual pressure released by Hasegawa Izumi caused the three evil spirits to immediately become active.

These evil spirits were clearly not very intelligent; they simply felt the danger had disappeared, and then their hunting instincts drove them once again.

"One person against one."

"I choose this death!"

Come on, follow me.

The three girls spread out and ran to different places.

There was no communication between the evil spirits; they simply sensed each other drifting toward the girl closest to them.

"So, how will everyone perform? I'm really looking forward to it..."

An amused smile appeared on Hasegawa Izumi's face.

"By the way, is Rikka also caught in a battle?"

He looked up at the sky.

On the other side of the same bright moonlight, another battle had just ended.

"It's time to end this!"

Panting, Takanashi Rikka's eyes sharpened, and she suddenly shouted, clapping her hands together. At that moment, her spiritual power was exceptionally concentrated in one place, and she slapped it forward.

"Gentle Fist Technique - Bagua Harmonizing Palm"

Having suffered multiple blows, the slender evil spirit was finally powerless to avoid this attack. The spiritual power that struck it three inches into the air pierced through its chest, and the already thin ghostly aura rapidly eroded as the hole appeared, until it turned into a wisp of black smoke and completely disappeared from this world.

The girl finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the ground exhausted, and looked somewhat annoyed.

"My strength should be greater than itss, yet I struggled so much. This is because my combat experience is too poor, and I missed many opportunities. If I could do it again, I should be able to defeat it easily... I have completely failed the Sage's training. Fortunately, the Sage did not see me in such a sorry state, otherwise, he would definitely be suspicious!"

"However, few are born warriors, but I believe that one day I will become someone worthy of the title 'Wicked Eye of the Tyrant King User'."

After a period of emotional turmoil, she clenched her fist and cheered herself up again.

Back home.

"By the way, I wonder how the Sage and the others' plans are going? Those guys, hopefully they haven't been exposed! They should have already come up with a reason, right?"

Suddenly, the girl remembered this and her expression became tense.

"Beep~"

Just as Hasegawa Izumi was about to observe the organization's members' battle, a sudden notification alert diverted his attention.

He picked up his phone and looked at it, a look of surprise on his face.

Yotsuya Miko: Boss, I feel like something is drilling into my body. Is something wrong?

Me: Oh, is that so? Come here so I can check your body.

Yotsuya Miko: Yes, Chief!

"Speaking of which, a physical examination? It sounds a bit strange..."

Looking at the reply, Yotsuya Miko tilted her head, feeling a little strange.

However, she didn't think too much about it and ran to the address the leader had given her.

Where are they?

After taking the phone, Hasegawa Izumi turned around and glanced at it, only to find that the battlefield had already moved beyond the surrounding area.

"Forget it, those low-level battles aren't anything to watch. But these things are always a threat if we let them escape..."

He turned and stared at the remaining group of evil spirits.

Not long after.

"Chief! I've arrived!"

Some shouts came from not far away.

Yotsuya Miko walked out of the area where the stalls were set up, her gaze finally settling on the figure illuminated by the lanterns.

As she took a few steps closer, a familiar chill suddenly swept over her.

There are evil spirits around here! And many of them!

Even when her Onmyo Eyes were not in a closed state, she could still keenly perceive it.

"Come here, don't worry."

Hasegawa Izumi saw the girl suddenly stop, she knew what she was worried about, so she gave her assurance.

Yotsuya Miko immediately felt safe.

"Chief, did you come here specifically to Spirit Summoning? But can you handle them? I sense there are many of them... Perhaps we should leave now!"

She moved closer, instinctively using her hands to protect herself.

The girl then realized that it was actually more frightening when you knew something existed but couldn't see it.

"Ha ha ha ha..."

He laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Intentionally? You could say that, but it was just to give the organization members some practice. As for these guys... they're nothing but sand, not even a fraction of my strength."

He said with an arrogant expression.

Clearly, Yotsuya underestimated his strength, thinking that he was standing there without making a move because he was wary of those things and dared not act rashly for the time being.

But in reality, those guys were trembling under the spiritual pressure he had just suddenly released at full power.

"Huh? Did I misunderstand?"

Yotsuya Miko a slight blush.

To be honest, she really knew nothing about the leader's power or the so-called Far East Magic Society.

She was just grasping at the straw in front of her; she wasn't particularly interested in pursuing power.

"Don't worry about it. It's normal for a newbie like you to not be able to tell the difference... Let's talk about your situation now."

Hasegawa Izumi's expression returned to normal. He then activated his Spiritual Eye Technique, fixing his gaze on the girl's brow, where a faint wisp of spiritual energy was steadily growing stronger.

"Your aptitude is even better than I anticipated. You've mastered Meditation Technique and generated spiritual energy in such a short time... While this is related to your own awakening, it's still quite remarkable."

He confirmed the facts, but wasn't too surprised.

Heroes are made by the times; whenever great changes occur, there are always some exceptional individuals who emerge.

The powerful figures born in this world are not necessarily inferior to the legendary figures who once dominated all realms.

Having such a character as a prospective member adds a bit of pressure for Rikka and the others to move forward.

"Have I mastered it? And I even received praise..."

A smile of joy appeared on Yotsuya Miko's usually expressionless face.

"By the way, leader, are you a student at Shuchiin? I saw the school uniform you were wearing in the video."

She suddenly thought of it.

"Yes, our Far East Magic Society's base is also in Shuchiin, and other members of the organization are currently there as well."

Wow, that's amazing! Is everyone this good?

"You are indeed very impressive, but you are no less so. Talent like yours is extremely rare even in the world. I have never seen anything like it in Shuchiin, Shuchiin."

"I got praised again..."

The girl lowered her head slightly, a blush creeping onto her face.

At the same time.

The three battles that unfolded in their respective battle zones reached their climax.

"Of all martial arts techniques in the world, none are invincible except for speed!"

Dekomori Sanae looked at the demon that had opened its huge mouth, wanting to swallow her whole, and at that moment she remembered the famous quote that the Lord Sage had unintentionally blurted out during his teachings.

What others didn't know was that this sentence really hit her sweet spot.

Besides its terrifying destructive power, Thunder's speed is also a major characteristic.

Her goal, the Thunder Hammer User, also drove her to pursue this goal in her physical training.

"Shave!"

She grinned, and then vanished from the spot.

According to the Lord Sage, in the world of One Piece, the technique of shaving lies in using the explosive reaction force generated by stomping the ground dozens of times at high speed to move at high speed.

However, if she possesses spiritual power, she can use the vibrations of that power to execute this move.

"Take this punch!"

In the blink of an eye, before the evil spirit could react, an attack came from behind, piercing it through and vanishing like smoke.

When Natsukawa Masuzu encountered a small, impish spirit that was less than a meter tall, the battle was easier than she had imagined. The spirit's attacks were made by biting with its teeth, which she easily dodged. She quickly figured out the spirit's attack methods and rhythm.

"I've always wanted to try saying lines like this. Even though you're ugly, thank you for giving me this opportunity..."

Her expression shifted from cautious to one of helplessness.
