Li Yu knew perfectly well who had just unleashed that murderous intent. He looked up at Asuna, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes. She was actually jealous?

"Let go first, and I'll explain everything when Yukino and the others come in. Otherwise, I'll have to repeat myself later!" With that, Li Yu pushed Xia Yu away.

Upon hearing this, Xia Yu became even happier. She didn't care about the other thing and couldn't help but look forward to it. No matter what, she had to learn that move, she absolutely had to learn it!

"Is that a new move you developed? Is it Martial Arts like the Tempest Kick?" Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't sit still any longer and immediately asked.

Li Yu nodded, not denying it. Although it was newly developed, it was indeed developed, and achieving the Teleportation -like effect that Li Yu had just experienced was possible.

Having confirmed this, Shizuka Hiratsuka became even more interested. However, there were still some people who hadn't come in yet, and she wasn't in a hurry to ask them. She figured they were probably still recovering.

The feeling of death is awful. Even though this is a virtual world, experiencing it for the first time is going to be a real ordeal. Ais is Sixth Tier person and someone who has experienced life-or-death battles, so recovering from it is easy for her.

However, Yukino and the others are different. They are all students and have never experienced a situation like Ais and the others. It will probably take them a few minutes to come to their senses.

Everyone waited quietly, without rushing to ask questions. They figured they could teach everyone together when Li Yu arrived.

While everyone was waiting, Yukino and the others outside sat up in a daze, many of them with blank stares, and Yukino even clutched her chest.

Here, a dull ache was throbbing in her chest. Her mind was filled with the image of Li Yu stabbing her with his knife. There was no visible wound, yet the pain was excruciating. This experience was truly awful.

"Just cover it with magic, that was all fake. Let's go back in," Ais said to her classmates after she came to her senses and sat up.

Her words quickly brought everyone back to their senses, including Yukino Yukinoshita, though her face was now extremely pale. Without any hesitation, she put her helmet back on, lay down, and reconnected.

Soon, her consciousness returned to the battlefield. The others arrived one after another. When Yukino saw Li Yu, she walked up to him without saying a word, ready to question him about Li Yu intentions.

Just thinking about what Li Yu said when he stabbed her made Yukino blush. So what if I'm small? It won't starve your child. Being small is cute too!

Just as she was about to step forward and question Li Yu, Yukino heard Li Yu's words. "Have you all come to your senses? Alright, next I'll teach you a Flash Step, the kind of speed I unleashed during the battle just now."

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Yukino Yukinoshita immediately conjured up an image of Li Yu suddenly appearing in front of her and stabbing her. Was that what he called Shunpo (Flash Step)?

Thinking this through, Yukino decided to let Li Yu go for now and listen to what Li Yu had to teach them. If they could really learn it, it would greatly improve their strength.

Putting everything else aside, the techniques Li Yu has mastered are quite useful, so Yukino decided to temporarily let bygones be bygones with this bastard Li Yu.

The others also perked up their ears, ready to seriously learn the Flash Step that Li Yu had mentioned. Everyone was eager to improve!

"This is actually just a burst of power in an instant..." Li Yu began to explain the technique of generating power to everyone. This Flash Step requires a certain level of strength; if your strength is below the fourth level, you simply cannot learn it.

If you're not strong enough, you simply can't withstand that impact and will break your bones. This move is something that people with poor physical fitness shouldn't learn.

After Li Yu explained these techniques, Hiratsuka Shizuka thoughtfully said, "It's all about the explosive power of that instantaneous burst of energy—that's something I excel at!"

After a quick reorganization, she understood what to do. She left the students and began to try it out. Her talent was naturally explosive, so learning this stuff was like child's play for her.

Shizuka Hiratsuka began to try it out. Following Li Yu's instructions, she circulated her True Qi and then instantly unleashed it, appearing on the other side as if by Teleportation, although the distance was a bit excessive.

Shizuka Hiratsuka crashed headfirst into the audience seats. Luckily, this was within the game, so she wasn't seriously injured; otherwise, she probably would have gotten a bruised and swollen face.

"Goodness, I need to control myself, otherwise I'll crash into the wall!" Shizuka Hiratsuka quickly adjusted and tried again, soon getting the hang of it.

At this, Hiratsuka Shizuka became excited and began to Teleportation around the arena repeatedly, a sight that amazed everyone. They immediately began to try and master the technique.

Seeing this, Yor immediately said, "Alright, everyone can try it out here. Let's not fight for now. Let's learn this move first. After you've learned it here, you can try it out outside."

Since there are new moves to learn, it's natural to learn them first. This move is fantastic, perfect for everyone to master, and very useful in actual combat.

Upon hearing Yor's words, everyone became excited and, without hesitation, dispersed to learn the moves that Li Yu had just taught them.

Asuna went straight to Li Yu's side and asked Li Yu for advice. As her boyfriend, she was entitled to private lessons, and the two of them went to the side and whispered to each other.

Yukino Yukinoshita raised an eyebrow at this sight. These two are definitely something; are they already together?

Otherwise, they wouldn't be so affectionate.

After a moment of internal monologue, Yukino stopped thinking about it and went to the side with Kato Megumi and the others to discuss the techniques that Li Yu had just taught them, and then they learned from each other.

Within moments, some people had already started trying it out. In addition, some people went directly to ask Teacher Yor Hiratsuka Shizuka for help. Although Yor did not demonstrate it, she probably already learned it.

After about half an hour, everyone began to master the technique called Flash Step. The first one to master it was naturally Ais, who was the strongest among her classmates, so learning it was not difficult for her.

Once everyone had mastered the Flash Step, they began running around the virtual battlefield. Xia Yu, in particular, had started to integrate his talent with the Flash Step he had just learned.

"Squad leader, let's fight! I'm incredibly fast right now!" Xia Yu shouted excitedly to Li Yu after fiddling with the equipment.

Upon hearing this, Li Yu slowly typed a question mark and asked, "Are you sure?"

Is this guy really that brave? He just learned this and he already wants to fight him? So arrogant! Does he really think he can beat him just because he learned this?

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of you anymore. I'm very fast, you can't kill me in an instant!" She didn't expect to beat Li Yu, she only hoped that Li Yu wouldn't kill her instantly.

Upon hearing this, Li Yu chuckled and immediately walked outside, saying, "Come on, let's practice. Let me see where your confidence comes from."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yu instinctively shrank back, but she quickly hardened her stance and dashed out, leaving only flashes of lightning in her wake—her speed was indeed remarkable.

When the others saw that Xia Yu was about to fight Li Yu, they immediately became interested and all looked over. This was going to be very interesting, wasn't it? And Xia Yu was really brave.

"Cheer up, don't lose points, Xia Yu, keep it up!" Someone suddenly shouted this at Xia Yu, and Xia Yu was immediately shocked. She regretted it as soon as she regained her footing.

However, Li Yu had already drawn his knife, so Xia Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and draw her own weapon, staring intently at Li Yu as she said, "Squad leader, please go easy on me!!"

Despite saying this, Xia Yu had already rushed forward. Faced with this situation, Li Yu's lips curled up slightly, he moved his body forward, and then suddenly pointed the Tang Dao in his hand forward.

The next instant, Xia Yu crashed into him, and the Tang Dao pierced right through her. Seeing this, Li Yu burst out laughing, "Laughable! What's the use of being fast? Are you rushing in to commit suicide?"

She had only raised the knife, but this guy actually charged right into it? Xia Yu was completely bewildered. Before the pain in her chest subsided, she couldn't help but exclaim, "I don't understand!"

Why did this happen? Is that class monitor such a scoundrel? He suddenly puts a knife in someone's path so they'll run into it?

This was Xia Yu's last thought. With that thought, she vanished. Li Yu, helpless, shook his head and turned back to Asuna's side.

At this moment, Asuna couldn't help but laugh out loud, saying, "Because the speed is too fast, there's simply no time to react. It seems that going too fast isn't a good thing either; we need to control it carefully!"

"Of course, Xia Yu's talent lies in speed, and with this skill, she is indeed very fast, but it is precisely because she is too fast that she cannot control herself." Li Yu's lips twitched slightly as he mentioned this.

The opponent's speed is indeed impressive, but he can't control it at all. What's the use of being fast if you can't stop? Being fast on the main line isn't true speed; you have to be fast on the curves. So Xia Yu still needs to practice!

While the two were chatting, Xia Yu returned shortly afterward. Because she died so quickly, she didn't feel anything; she was simply forced out after everything went black. In addition, since Yor had already taught everyone how to deal with that kind of pain, Xia Yu recovered quickly and returned!
