If You Are Worn Down by Numbers, It Only Proves You Are Not Strong Enough
Upon hearing her daughter's nonsensical words, Dai Tianling's face darkened, and she immediately scolded her daughter.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't compare your father to that incompetent old man, Xuan Zi."
Dai Tianling was quite helpless. He hadn't expected that he would become Xuan Zi so soon after taking his daughter out for training.
You must know that Dai Tianling has great ambitions, and besides, haven't I been protecting him perfectly?
Aside from some injuries, neither of them was seriously injured. How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air?
When Dai Yun'er heard this, she pouted, her eyes showing a hint of dissatisfaction, and then directly retorted.
"But Dad, that's exactly what you were doing!"
"Without saying a word, they made the two of us fight against an army of tens of thousands of Demon, and then they went to fight the great Demon by themselves. Zhu Zhuqing and I almost died!"
"Given how careless you are, calling you Xuan Zi wouldn't be an exaggeration, would it?"
Dai Yun'er spoke with considerable confidence.
Upon hearing this, Dai Tianling couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile, his voice tinged with helplessness.
"You little rascal... I just can't reason with you anymore."
As Dai Tianling spoke, she straightened her expression, her eyes fixed on the two of them, and her tone became serious.
"I've already told you how strong the enemies facing Douluo Continent are."
"You've experienced it firsthand just now, haven't you?"
Upon hearing this, Dai Yun'er's expression softened slightly, and she nodded and spoke.
"I have seen it, but if it's just one, it's not that strong. I can handle it easily. It's only equivalent to a third or fourth-ring Soul Master. Even if it's one against ten or a hundred, I'm not afraid."
Dai Tianling shook his head upon hearing Dai Yun'er's words, and then continued speaking.
"On the battlefield, there's no such thing as one-on-one combat."
Upon hearing this, Dai Yun'er's little face showed some resentment, and she directly addressed Dai Tianling.
"But there's no such thing as two people fighting thousands upon thousands of enemies on the battlefield, is there?"
"Sending two people to fight against thousands of people, and those people aren't weak either, the odds of winning are indeed very low."
"A war of attrition alone could wear us down to death."
After hearing these words, Dai Tianling simply shook his head, then his eyes fell on Dai Yun'er, and he spoke in a calm voice.
"You are quite aware of the current strength of students from academies other than Shrek Academy in the Douluo Continent, right?"
Dai Yun'er paused for a moment, then nodded. Although she hadn't personally fought against the other academies, she knew their strength. Reaching the third ring in one's twenties was already considered genius-level, let alone the fourth ring.
But Shrek Academy is different. Shrek Academy has only been established for less than a year, yet it has already propelled everyone to new heights, like a rocket taking off.
Dai Tianling continued speaking.
"If we compare the students of the Shrek Academy to great Demon, and the students of other academies on the Douluo Continent to those Demon legions, then those great Demon could hold their own against me. Just look at how many Demon I've killed with a single punch!"
"Quantity is meaningless in the face of strength."
"If quantity still matters, then it proves your strength is not strong enough."
Dai Tianling spoke these words with considerable seriousness.
After hearing this, Dai Yun'er didn't refute it anymore, because at this moment Dai Yun'er felt that what her father said was indeed correct.
If your teammates are too weak, they really can't help much, and might even hold you back.
Fortunately, Shrek Academy is currently enrolling a relatively large number of students, so I won't be completely isolated and helpless when the time comes.
Now, Dai Yun'er no longer dares to be arrogant, especially since she had just truly felt the fear of being on the verge of death, a feeling that was more real than any preaching.
Zhu Zhuqing stood to the side, her eyes filled with complex emotions. The despair she had just felt was even greater than when she escaped from the Star Luo Empire.
Just then, Dai Tianling's gaze swept over the two of them, and then he asked.
"Just now... did you sense something?"
Upon hearing this, Dai Yun'er's eyes lit up, and she quickly smiled and nodded.
"That's right!"
"Zhu Zhuqing and I were just trying to unleash our Martial Soul Fusion Skill, but we failed. After trying a different method, we actually felt our Soul Power recover somewhat."
"But we don't know the specific reason either."
Upon hearing this, Dai Tianling's face showed a knowing expression, and then he nodded before continuing to speak to the two of them.
"This is what you will be learning next."
Dai Yun'er and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance, wondering what Dai Tianling planned to teach them next.
Dai Tianling didn't say anything more, but simply turned around, raised his hand, and casually waved it, reopening the entrance to the passage.
"Come with me, come out."
The two quickly followed, passing through the narrow passage and returning to the training ground.
It must be said that after leaving that rather terrible place in the Demon Plane, coming here to breathe fresh air was a wonderful thing for the two of them.
"You two go wash up and get yourself ready."
Dai Tianling spoke up, and then Dai Yun'er and Zhu Zhuqing took the teleportation array back to Suotuo City. It has to be said that with the teleportation array, travel is indeed quite convenient.
"He's alive! He's alive!"
Dai Yun'er couldn't help but sigh, then her gaze fell on Zhu Zhuqing beside her, and she spoke to Zhu Zhuqing.
"Zhu Zhuqing, it's not that I don't care about you, it's just that my dad was too unexpected, and... it feels like I won't be able to relax at all from now on."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded, not caring about these things. After all, she still wanted to become stronger, and this time, no matter what, she was the one who held Dai Yun'er back.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing unconsciously put herself in the shoes of the Demon legion that Dai Tianling had just mentioned. Her strength was simply too weak, so weak that it could be ignored.
You still need to become stronger; only by constantly becoming stronger can you change your destiny.
After a quick wash, the two took some healing and Soul Power- restoring pills before returning to the Shrek Academy Star Luo City Branch.
