"Careful, he's not dead yet!" Chen Feng suddenly saw the Orc Commander who had been struck by the Blazing Fire move. He hurriedly called out a warning.
But it was already too late. The Orc Commander roared and sprang up from the ground, charging straight at the bald warrior.
Just then, beams of light appeared all around the Orc Commander, forming a cage that trapped him inside.
An orange-red blur darted out from among the Orcs. It raced across the heads of the Orc Warriors, taking an Orc's life with every step.
As the Orc Commander struggled desperately to break free, the orange-red blur had already leaped above him.
It was a canine creature. But when it reached the Orc Commander, its body began to swell at incredible speed, growing enormous in an instant. It landed right on top of him.
Its massive body pinned the Orc Commander beneath it. Then it took a deep breath, and a pillar of fire burst from its mouth, scorching the Orc Commander beneath its paws.
"GRAAAH!!!!" The Orc Commander screamed in agony, but he couldn't move at all. Already gravely wounded, he didn't have the strength to throw off the giant beast. All he could do was endure the flames pouring down on him.
Before long, the Orc Commander fell silent. Only after the giant beast stopped spewing fire did the air around them slowly return to normal. Chen Feng saw that the ground beneath the beast's feet had begun to crystallize. The temperature must have been astonishing.
"Kill them!!!!" Roars rang out from the east. A small army charged over, and the Orc Army blocking their path was no match for them. They easily tore a gap through the Orc ranks.
At the head of the force was a man wearing a blue cape and blue-and-white Taoist robes, with a long staff in his hand. He flung talisman after talisman, and every Orc struck by one was killed in a violent explosion.
"There are two more commanders over there. I'll go first. Hurry over, and take this chance to wipe out the Orcs for good, so they won't come back to bother us." Seeing her troops charge in, the female mage spoke to the bald warrior and the Taoist Priest with the staff. "Also, this kid's pretty good. Holy War, you could consider taking him as a disciple. You still haven't taken one, have you?"
With that, she raised her staff. In an instant, she vanished from Chen Feng's sight. A moment later, a bolt of lightning descended from the sky and struck the northwest gate of Baqi City.
"Let me heal your wounds first." The Taoist Priest with the staff finished speaking, then raised a hand. A milky-white orb of light appeared above Chen Feng's head, circled him a few times, then sank into his body.
As the orb flowed into him, Chen Feng felt a warm current sweep quickly through his body. The injuries he'd sustained while blocking the Orc Commander's flying axe healed rapidly.
"Kid, interested in becoming my disciple?" The bald man called Holy War glanced at the Orc Warrior corpses around Chen Feng and at the elite warriors behind him. They had fallen, but none were in mortal danger. He asked with some admiration.
"Will you teach me the move you used to defeat that Orc Commander?" Chen Feng asked suddenly.
"Hmm? Once you become my disciple, I'll teach you those techniques when you're strong enough." Chen Feng's question caught Holy War off guard, but he answered patiently.
"Then can't you teach me right now? I'll become your disciple immediately!" At his words, Chen Feng seized the opportunity. Once the Orc Army retreated, the mission would be complete, and he would leave this world.
So he was eager to learn the advanced Warrior skills.
"Your strength is too low. I'll teach you when you reach the necessary level. Of course, that's assuming you become my disciple." Chen Feng's words displeased Holy War. As an experienced warrior, he could tell Chen Feng's strength at a glance.
"Then can't you teach me now? I'll become your disciple right away."
"Even if I taught you, would you be able to learn it?!" Chen Feng's persistence irritated Holy War. Judging from what had happened here, it wasn't hard to guess how Chen Feng had performed earlier. Holy War had thought he showed promise, but apparently he had a screw loose.
"I can learn it, as long as you teach me in earnest!"
"Heh! Fine. Watch closely. I'll show you once. Whether you can learn it is up to you, but don't bring up becoming my disciple again!!!" Chen Feng's words managed to calm Holy War down.
He shot Chen Feng a glance, then walked over to the frozen Orc Commander.
"Watch carefully! This is Basic Swordplay!!!" Holy War raised the Verdict in his hand and faced the frozen Orc Commander. Every attack was a basic move, yet each one carried immense power.
"This is Attack and Kill Sword Technique!" Holy War's strikes grew fiercer, and his speed kept increasing.
"This is Assassination Sword Skill!" Holy War suddenly thrust his hand forward with force. A streak of Sword Qi pierced through the Orc Commander and cleaved an Orc Warrior who had fled here in a panic clean in two.
"This is Half-Moon Saber!" A fan-shaped arc of Sword Qi burst from the Verdict, engulfing everything around the Orc Commander.
"This is Savage Charge, and finally, Blazing Fire Sword Skill!!!!" By the time Holy War finished his demonstration, the Orc Commander who had served as his practice target had breathed his last.
"I've taught you everything. Whether you can learn it is up to you." Holy War glanced at Chen Feng, then charged into the Orc Army without looking back and began his slaughter.
The Taoist Priest beside him glanced at Chen Feng in confusion, then walked away.
At that moment, Chen Feng was already grinning from ear to ear, but he still forced himself to hold it in. His theory had been right: when someone sincerely taught you, you could learn simply by being taught.
He had spent several thousand Reincarnation Points, but now his combat skills included four new beginner techniques: Assassination Sword Skill, Half-Moon Saber, Savage Charge, and Blazing Fire Sword Skill.
Watching the Orc Army scatter in every direction, Chen Feng wanted to farm points, but he had reached his limit. He forced his exhausted body to carry the elite warriors who had fought alongside him to the gate. Then he climbed a makeshift ladder onto the city wall, found a corner, and fell fast asleep.
