Shen Shuning glanced at her friend, thought for a moment, and added:
However, it's more likely to be Tier 3 or Fourth Tier.
"These two levels of martial artists can effectively put pressure on us, making it easier to provide practical combat guidance."
"Is the probability of it being Third Tier or Fourth Tier higher?" Xiao Bai'er asked.
"That depends on the situation with the Supervision Bureau Supervision Bureau. If they can spare someone, then Fourth Tier is possible. If they can't spare anyone, then Tier 3 is more likely," Shen Shuning explained her thoughts.
"I see!" Xiao Bai'er nodded thoughtfully.
At that moment, the hushed discussions around them quieted down.
The two realized what was happening and fell silent.
Shen Shuning shifted her gaze.
Three figures walked in from the entrance of the training ground in the distance.
The leader was an old Daoist priest, and two steps behind him, a man and a woman were following closely.
The man looked to be around thirty years old, also dressed in a Daoist robe, with his hair tied up in a bun.
The other girl looked younger and had a low ponytail at the back of her neck.
As the three approached, the crowd shouted in unison:
"Headmaster!"
The old Daoist nodded, and without further ado, began to introduce the two people behind him to everyone.
"These two will be your next teachers."
One is responsible for martial arts instruction, and the other is responsible for practical combat instruction.
"What you need to do next is to choose a weapon that suits your abilities, and then find a martial arts instructor to learn from."
"He will teach you the appropriate weapon usage and combat techniques based on your individual characteristics."
"After learning these, find another instructor with practical experience to learn how to apply what you've learned in real-world situations."
Li Daoyi paused here and said:
"Of course, it's not like you have to choose a weapon. It depends on your own capabilities."
The crowd looked at the two teachers in front of them with some surprise.
They originally thought there would only be one Third Tier- or Fourth Tier teacher, but unexpectedly, two showed up.
However, considering what the principal just said about letting them choose weapons that suit them, it seems quite normal that two of them chose this option.
After all, it would be very difficult to find someone who not only meets the requirements of high rank, proficiency in various weapons, and considerable combat ability, but also can provide them with practical combat guidance.
However, these two teachers...
Everyone instinctively began to check on the two teachers.
Both teachers exuded Origin Power.
The girl's Origin Power was much denser, probably around the Third Tier level.
The other teacher in charge of martial arts instruction had similar Origin Power to them, probably around First Tier.
"Alright, that's about it. They can arrange their own lessons from now on. Just focus on your cultivation." Li Daoyi continued.
"By the way, don't think you can slack off just because you're in the Tianshu Class."
"The academy holds a ranking battle every month. The bottom ten students will play against the top ten students from the Yaoguang Class. The loser will be transferred to the Yaoguang Class."
At this point, Li Daoyi paused, then shouted:
Did you hear me?!
"We heard that!" everyone responded.
"Okay, then I'll leave the rest to them. I'm off!"
After Li Daoyi finished speaking, he glanced at everyone and then walked towards the entrance of the training ground.
Watching the principal walk away, Shen Shuning slowly withdrew her gaze.
For some reason, she felt that the principal seemed to have glanced at her a couple of times during his speech.
Ahead, the two teachers had already started moving.
The middle-aged Daoist priest, dressed in a Daoist robe, took two steps forward, put his hands together, and interlocked his thumbs and ring fingers to form a celestial constellation.
"I am Zhou Yang. From now on, I will be responsible for teaching you the basics of martial arts."
"Just as the principal just said, the key to spiritual practice lies in perseverance."
"I hope that you will all diligently cultivate yourselves in the future."
After he finished his introduction, the girl with the low ponytail next to him took a step forward at the opportune moment.
Unlike Zhou Yang, she didn't engage in any elaborate formalities or gestures; she simply nodded slightly.
Xiao Xiangtong.
Time flies, and more than half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Somewhere on the outskirts of Linhai.
The rain was falling steadily.
A colossal creature resembling a giant lizard was trapped in the central depression.
Five figures swirled and intertwined around it.
"Clang!"
The giant blade struck the Calamity Beast's rock armor with tremendous force.
It only left a white mark, but the knife-wielder was so shaken that his hands went numb, and he staggered backward.
"Damn it, is the shell of this thing made of Origin Power Alloy?!" Li Duo gritted his teeth.
"I don't know if it was caused by Origin Power Alloy, but you need to think of a solution quickly, otherwise I can't hold on much longer!" A voice panting heavily rang out.
A tall, imposing man, wielding a tower shield, stood firmly in front of the Rock-Armored Rhino Nightmare.
Almost as soon as he spoke, a dark shadow cut in from the side, stabbing at the part of the Rock-Armored Rhino Nightmare that was not covered by its shell.
However, despite their seemingly clumsy appearance, the monitor lizard reacts with astonishing speed, its massive claws sweeping across the air with a whooshing sound.
The Shadow Wolf on the ground, barely managing to dodge the attack.
The blade narrowly grazed the opponent's rough, scaly skin, but only managed to shave off a few insignificant pieces of hard scab.
"No, it's too fast! And the parts not covered by the shell are very hard; it's difficult for me to penetrate its defenses!" His voice sounded anxious amidst the sound of rain.
Li Duo looked at the Rock-Armored Rhino Nightmare, which was surrounded in the low-lying area, with some irritation.
Damn it, two Tier 2 and three First Tier 1 monsters, and after all that effort we still can't defeat a Tier 3 Calamity Beast?!
"Hurry up!!" the man holding the tower shield shouted again.
Li Duo gritted his teeth and turned to look at the two people behind him.
" Old Zhang! Old Gao! Long-range suppression!"
"I know!" the man called Old Zhang replied.
He quickly formed hand seals, and a blazing line of fire shot towards the giant lizard's head, attempting to burn its relatively vulnerable eyes.
However, the torrential rain greatly reduced the power of the fire.
The Rock-Armored Rhino Nightmare's eyelids drooped, its transparent nictitating membrane covering its eyeballs, yet it stubbornly withstood the fire line, only emitting a burnt smell and an angry growl.
This attack seemed to enrage the monitor lizard completely; it suddenly raised its forelimbs and stomped down heavily!
Boom!!!
The earth trembled violently, and a circular, yellowish-brown shockwave spread out from its center, lifting the accumulated mud and slurry high into the air, sweeping outwards like a mudslide!
"Scatter!" Li Duo roared, but he was already a fraction too late.
The man with the shield was the first to be hit; he and the tower shield were thrown away by the terrifying shockwave and crashed heavily into the muddy water more than ten meters away.
The two people next to them were also blown off their feet by the violent blast of air and slid backward.
Li Duo himself was hit on the shoulder by a flying piece of gravel, letting out a muffled groan as his Origin Power fluctuations became chaotic.
Only Old Zhang was standing a little further away, managed to keep his balance, but even he was feeling nauseous and was forced to move away.
The cold rain washed away the mud and grime from everyone's bodies.
"Roar--"
A deep, guttural roar erupted.
Everyone looked up and saw the Rock-Armored Rhino Nightmare slowly climbing up from the low-lying area.
Even after a fierce battle lasting half a day, it only suffered some minor injuries.
On the other hand, they...
"Cough cough... Damn it..."
Li Duo coughed violently, looking at the Rock-Armored Rhino Nightmare with some resentment.
A figure holding an umbrella appeared beside the group without them noticing.
"There's still a chance if we give it a try. Shall we give it another shot?"
