The Imperial Fighting Team's First Lesson: Who Was the Control Core?
The third day after joining the Imperial Fighting Team.
Team training area.
Qin Ming did not arrange any new assessments.
They also didn't let Dong Jian and Li Man continue their two-on-two match.
He only did one thing.
Rotating lineups.
Yu Tianheng stood at the very front of the line.
Dugu Yan was on his left.
Yu Feng and Osler were positioned on the two wings.
The Shi Mo and Shi Mo are on the front side.
Ye Lingling stood at the back.
This is the lineup that the Imperial Fighting Team is most familiar with.
The team has undergone extensive training.
Everyone knows where they should stand.
They also know what to do next after their teammates unleash their Soul Skill.
Qin Ming looked at Dong Jian and Li Man.
"Starting today."
"You won't be working alone forever."
"After joining the team."
"You must learn to cooperate with different teammates."
He raised his hand and pointed to the Soul Fighting Arena.
"Group One."
"Yu Tianheng, Li Man, Yu Feng, Shi Mo, Ye Lingling."
"Second group."
"Dugu Yan, Dong Jian, Osler, Shi Mo."
"Conduct a five-on-five Simulation."
"The objective is to capture the enemy's rear flag."
Dugu Yan raised an eyebrow.
"Should I be paired with Dong Jian?"
"Is there a problem?"
Qin Ming asked.
"No."
Dugu Yan looked at Li Man.
"Someone just joined the team."
He was then placed next to Tian Heng.
Li Man ignored those words.
She was more concerned about something else.
She was in a team with Yu Tianheng, Yu Feng, Shi Mo, and Ye Lingling.
There is no Dugu Yan.
In other words...
This time, she will take control of the situation on her own.
Qin Ming looked at both sides.
"Preparation time: 15 minutes."
"Decid on your own positioning and tactics."
Dugu Yan was the first to walk to the other side.
Dong Jian followed behind her.
Osler and Shi Mo didn't ask any further questions.
The Imperial Fighting Team was originally controlled by Dugu Yan.
When she issued the command.
Others are already used to doing it.
On the other side.
Yu Tianheng looked at Li Man.
How do you plan to fight?
"First, identify the opponent's core."
Li Man said.
"Dugu Yan will cover the central area with poisonous fog."
"Osler broke through from the side."
Dong Jian will stand guard between her and the flag.
Yu Feng crossed his arms over his chest.
"Does this even need analysis?"
"It is known."
Li Man looked up at him.
"Know what the other party will do."
"That doesn't mean we know when it will happen."
She pointed to the center of the Soul Fighting.
"Dugu Yan's poisonous fog covers a wide area."
"If we break through directly from the front..."
"Shi Mo will be restricted first."
"Yu Tianheng could not stay for long either."
"So the poisonous fog needs to be directed to the wrong location."
Yu Tianheng asked:
How to attract it?
"Let them think our target is the left side."
Li Man drew three routes on the ground.
"Yu Feng will approach from the left at low altitude."
"The Shi Mo protects Ye Lingling as she moves to the left."
I'll set up my main formation on the left flank.
"After Dugu Yan releases the poisonous mist."
Yu Tianheng charged in from the right.
Yu Feng frowned.
"I'm in charge of the bait?"
"You're the fastest."
Li Man said:
"And it's also the easiest to evacuate."
"If you don't want to."
"You can exchange it for Yu Tianheng."
Yu Feng immediately shook his head.
"Never mind."
"I'll do it."
Yu Tianheng looked at the route on the ground.
"After the poisonous fog appeared."
How can you guarantee that Dong Jian won't block your right side?
"I will place the Mobile Formation Eye on the right side in advance."
"It's not to pester Dong Jian."
"We just need to restrict the location from which he can unleash his Mountain-Shaking Stomp."
Yu Tianheng nodded.
"According to this plan."
Fifteen minutes later.
The Simulation battle begins.
Two flags were planted at opposite ends of the Soul Fighting Arena.
Qin Ming stood outside the field.
No further instructions were given.
The bell tolled.
The Yu Feng was the first to take off.
It didn't fly too high.
Instead, they moved quickly along the left side.
The Shi Mo lifted up the Black Tortoise.
They protected Ye Lingling and pushed forward in the same direction.
Li Manqing's jade bamboo dots the ground.
The shadows of the two main bamboo poles also fell on the left side.
A large number of bamboo and rattan branches quickly joined together.
The entire left half of the court looked like it was preparing for a strong attack.
Dugu Yan glanced at it.
A slight smile played at the corners of his lips.
"Trying to trick me into going to the left?"
The Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul has possessed him.
Three Soul Ring, two yellow and one purple, rose up.
The Second Soul Ring lit up.
The turquoise poisonous fog did not directly cover the left side.
Instead, it spread towards the central government first.
It then split into two streams.
A force chased after Yu Feng.
The other one moved closer to the right.
Li Man's expression changed slightly.
Dugu Yan was not completely fooled.
She knew Yu Tianheng wasn't on the left.
Naturally, they would anticipate a breakthrough from the right.
"Yu Tianheng."
"Wait a little longer."
Li Man said.
Yu Tianheng has completed the Martial Soul Possession.
His right arm transformed into a dragon's claw.
Lightning danced between the scales.
We can't wait any longer.
"The toxic fog continues to spread."
"The right side will also be blocked off."
He finished speaking.
The First Soul Ring lit up.
"Thunder Dragon Claw!"
Blue-purple lightning erupted from the right side.
Yu Tianheng charged head-on towards the area where Dugu Yan was located.
Li Man's Mobile Formation Eye immediately moved forward.
Bamboo and rattan lined the ground.
An attempt to restrict Dong Jian's foothold.
Dong Jian, however, did not move to the right.
He stood in front of Dugu Yan.
Stand with your feet apart.
The Sinking Body Stance is deployed.
She won't retreat from the right side.
Li Man immediately realized the problem.
Dugu Yan had no intention of avoiding Yu Tianheng.
She intends to utilize the poisonous fog head-on.
Have Dong Jian and Shi Mo hold off the advance.
The turquoise poisonous gas suddenly spread.
Not only did it block Yu Tianheng.
It also covered the route of Li Man's Mobile Formation Eye.
Bamboo and rattan came into contact with the toxic fumes.
Corrosion spots quickly appeared on the surface.
Li Man immediately changed course.
But Dugu Yan spoke at the same time.
Dong Jian.
"Short Tremor on the left side."
Dong Jian landed with his right foot.
The Short Tremor did not attack Yu Tianheng.
Instead, it landed along the ground near the main formation on the left.
Thump!
The bamboo shadows of the main formation swayed gently.
The corrosion from the toxic fumes has already made the bamboo roots unstable.
After the Short Tremor subsided.
The first main array immediately lost its balance.
Li Man's sphere of control subsequently shrank.
"Yu Feng, return to the middle lane!"
Li Man said.
Yu Feng had just dodged the poisonous fog.
They were preparing to attack Dugu Yan from high altitude.
Hearing the instruction.
Turn around immediately.
Ke Yu Tianheng spoke almost simultaneously.
"Keep pressing on the left side!"
Yu Feng paused in his movements.
It's back to the middle.
Or continue to the left?
There was only a moment's hesitation.
Osler has emerged from the shadows.
"First Soul Skill, Leopard Shadow Assault!"
A black afterimage circled around the Shi Mo.
Take the flags directly from the rear.
Ye Lingling has no offensive capabilities.
The only option is to retreat.
The Shi Mo immediately turned to protect it.
The enemy-luring formation on the left was forced to collapse.
Yu Tianheng saw that he was being threatened from behind.
Thunder Dragon Claw no longer attacks Dugu Yan.
Instead, he turned and intercepted Osler.
The rhythm of the battlefield was completely disrupted.
Li Man wants to rebuild the main force.
Dugu Yan's poisonous fog had already covered the center.
The second bamboo shadow has just risen.
They were then enveloped in green poisonous gas.
"The main formation cannot be placed in the poisonous fog."
Dugu Yan's voice came from the other side.
"We haven't even figured out who owns the venue."
How to control it?
Li Man did not answer.
She controlled the Instant Formation Eye to send Ye Lingling to a safe location.
However, this resulted in the loss of the opportunity to stop the advance of Shi Mo.
The Black Tortoise Soul Master withstood the Yu Feng blades.
Approaching the flag step by step.
Dong Jian then stood in front of Yu Tianheng.
He did not engage in a direct power struggle with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
Each time the Thunder Dragon Claw lands...
Both use Circular Force Redirection to deflect the frontal impact.
Then stabilize your steps by Sinking Body Stance.
Dugu Yan's poisonous fog continuously cut off Yu Tianheng's pursuit route.
In the same team.
The teamwork between Dong Jian, Dugu Yan, and Shi Mo was not refined.
But there has always been only one clear voice.
On Li Man's side.
Yu Tianheng's instructions clashed with hers several times.
Half an hour later.
Osler captured the flag.
Qin Ming raised his hand.
"Finish."
The fighting has ceased.
Neither side sustained visibly injured.
Li Man's group suffered a very straightforward defeat.
It's not because of a lack of direct strength.
It started from Yu Tianheng's first preemptive strike.
The entire tactical approach lost its cohesion.
After landing, Yu Feng...
He didn't look well.
"Whose opinion were you listening to just now?"
"Li Man told me to go back to the center."
Tian Heng, however, told me to continue on the left side.
Yu Tianheng withdrew his Martial Soul.
"The toxic fog has spread to the right."
"If we wait any longer, the opportunity to advance will disappear."
Li Man said:
"But you acted first."
"Let Dugu Yan confirm that the right side is the true direction of attack."
"She already knew."
Yu Tianheng answered.
"Then we should change the plan."
"There's no time to rearrange every move in a battle."
The atmosphere between the two gradually became tense.
Dugu Yan walked to the center of the Soul Fighting Arena.
"The problem is simple."
"A team can only have one control core."
She looked at Li Man.
"You devise the tactics."
"Yu Tianheng is in charge of execution."
"But he has far more team experience than you."
"They will naturally make their own judgment when they see an opportunity."
The result is that both sets of instructions appear simultaneously.
Li Man asked:
So everyone should only listen to you?
"At least within the original Imperial Fighting Team lineup."
Dugu Yan said:
"My poison mist determines the battlefield's extent."
"Tian Heng knows when to enter."
"Yu Feng and Osler know when to retreat."
"They don't need to wait for me to finish explaining each step."
That's because you've been working together for a long time.
Li Man answered.
"It's not because there can only be one control core by nature."
Dugu Yan's eyes turned slightly cold.
"Two Control System simultaneously alter the battlefield."
"It will only disrupt each other's rhythm."
"Then we'll see whose judgment is more suitable for the battlefield at that time."
Li Man did not back down.
"If the poisonous fog covers a section of the map that your teammates must pass through."
"It also needs to be changed."
Dugu Yan took a step forward.
His emerald green eyes stared at her.
"You think you lost just now?"
"Is it because they didn't listen to you?"
"No."
Li Man answered.
"It's my fault for not letting my teammates know beforehand."
"When the original plan fails."
Who has ultimate command?
Dugu Yan paused slightly.
She had assumed that Li Man would blame Yu Tianheng for the failure.
Li Man continued:
"My tactics were also flawed."
"The main formation is too concentrated on the left side."
"What if the poisonous fog doesn't completely catch up?"
"There are not enough takeover routes on the right."
But that doesn't mean all future battles will be fought.
"It can only be controlled by one person."
Qin Ming finally spoke.
Your argument has no resolution.
"At least not now."
He looked at Li Man.
This is your first time joining a seasoned roster.
"But they mistook everyone else for Dong Jian."
"Dong Jian will wait patiently for the next step after you change the formation."
"Yu Tianheng wouldn't."
He will seize any opportunity to attack.
Then he looked at Yu Tianheng.
"You know the tactics were devised by Li Man."
"But no signal was given before the change of action."
What you see is an opportunity for a breakthrough.
"What she saw was that the entire formation was not yet complete."
"None of you are at fault."
That's why we lost.
Yu Tianheng remained silent for a moment.
I'll let you know in advance next time.
Li Man nodded as well.
"I will design shorter instructions."
Dugu Yan crossed her arms.
"No matter how much you say..."
There can only be one control core.
Qin Ming looked at her.
"Then let's prove it with subsequent training."
After the Simulation battle ended.
Qin Ming did not allow everyone to rest.
The second training session began soon.
The Shi Mo and the Shi Mo stood in the center of the Soul Fighting Platform.
The Black Tortoise Martial Soul Possession.
Its body is covered by a thick tortoise shell.
Three Soul Ring, two yellow and one purple, rose up.
Dong Jian stood in front of the two of them.
No teammates.
There were no flags either.
"Your task."
Qin Ming said:
"Make any one of them take three steps back."
Dong Jian asked:
"Can I use all my Soul Skill?"
"Can."
The Shi Mo and Shi Mo both made their firm footing.
The Black Tortoise is one of the top defensive martial Martial Soul.
The two brothers stood together.
Defense is not simply the sum of two people.
There was even a slight connection between their breaths.
Dong Jian unleashes the Panda Martial Soul.
Two Yellow Soul Ring rose up.
Approach using the Light-Body Bear Steps.
The shoulders gain weight.
Mountain-Leaning Collision!
Bang!
His shoulder bumped into the Shi Mo tortoise shell.
Dong Jian himself was bounced back half a step.
The Shi Mo only swayed slightly.
The feet did not move.
The second time.
Dong Jian used Bear Astral Energy Body Protection.
A protective aura enveloped his body.
Mountain-Shaking Stomp down.
The ground shook and hurtled towards the Shi Brothers.
Cracks appeared in the soil beneath the Shi Mo.
The knees did not bend noticeably.
The two brothers simultaneously pressed their weight downwards.
The shockwave was dispersed by the Black Tortoise and the ground.
The Shi Mo's left foot could only move less than half a step.
"Pure power."
You can't compare to them.
Qin Ming said.
Dong Jian did not refute.
Charge forward again.
This time.
He did not strike the center of the tortoise shell head-on.
Instead, Short Tremor is first applied to the left side of the Shi Mo.
The Shi Mo mill instinctively shifts its center of gravity to the right.
Dong Jian then turned around.
The Circular Force Redirection and adheres to the edge of the tortoise shell.
It's not about pushing forward.
Instead, it continues to guide the Shi Mo along the direction in which its center of gravity shifts.
Shi Mo slid his right foot outwards a step.
Shi Mo immediately braced his brother with his shoulder.
The two regained their footing.
They still didn't take three steps back.
However, Dong Jian has already confirmed it.
The Black Tortoise cannot be broken open head-on.
However, the direction of defense can be changed.
"Again."
He didn't stop.
Lift your right foot.
Ye Lingling suddenly said:
"Switch to your left foot."
Dong Jian paused.
Ye Lingling stood on the sidelines.
Your right leg has already taken the brunt of the landing twice.
"Continue using it."
"The rebound will accumulate again."
Dong Jian switched to using his left foot.
"Mountain-Shaking Stomp!"
Boom!
The shockwave also reached the ground.
However, its power was nearly 30% weaker than when the right leg was used.
The direction of conduction also deviated.
Originally, the target was on the left side of the Shi Mo.
In the end, it fell between the two brothers.
The Shi Brothers swayed simultaneously.
No one retreated.
Dong Jian withdrew his Soul Power.
The left leg was not injured.
However, control was clearly insufficient.
Qin Ming said:
"Every day from now on."
Practice half with each leg.
"Your Soul Skill can't always have only one outlet."
Dong Jian nodded.
"Clear."
The training continued until noon.
After the other members of the Imperial Fighting Team left.
Qin Ming left Dong Jian and Li Man alone.
"I heard about you when you were at the Nuoding Academy."
Have you tried Martial Soul Fusion?
"Seventeen times."
Li Man said.
"All failed."
How did you try it?
"Let the Panda Martial Soul and the Green Jade Bamboo completely overlap."
Dong Jian answered.
Qin Ming shook his head.
"You haven't even standardized your Soul Power circulation yet."
"Directly overlapping complete Martial Soul."
Failure is normal.
"Martial Soul Fusion is not about forcibly pressing two Martial Soul together."
"Instead, let the two forces find the same operational goal first."
He pointed to the stone slabs on the training ground.
"Start with the smallest part."
Don't think about the complete fusion technique first.
Li Man released a fixed array eye.
The Second Soul Ring lit up.
The golden bamboo spear gradually materialized.
Dong Jian did not unleash the full Mountain-Shaking Stomp.
He concentrated the Black-and-White Earth Suppression Soul Power in his palm.
Then touch the base of the array's core.
The two Soul Power had just come into contact.
The golden bamboo spear then began to shake noticeably.
"Don't put any weight in."
Qin Ming said.
"Follow the route she has already established."
Dong Jian adjusted his Soul Power.
It will no longer be concentrated downwards.
Instead, they followed the bamboo vines into the golden bamboo spear.
Black and white stripes spread forward from the butt of the gun.
Li Man's forehead was covered in a fine sheen of sweat.
She was responsible for maintaining the shape of the bamboo spear.
Dong Jian, on the other hand, controlled the fluctuations to prevent them from erupting prematurely.
A few breaths later.
The bamboo spear finally stabilized.
"Release."
Qin Ming said.
Li Man lifted the Green Jade Bamboo.
A golden bamboo spear shot out.
It hit the ground ten paces away.
Boom!
The bamboo spear failed to pierce the stone slab.
Instead, it releases a brief oscillation at the moment of contact.
The three surrounding wooden stakes simultaneously lost their balance.
However, it was not directly destroyed.
Li Man withdrew her Martial Soul.
"It's a success."
Dong Jian looked at the cracks in the ground.
"It's not a fusion technique."
"It's just the stacking of Soul Skill."
Qin Ming said:
"But it's closer to the right direction than seventeen failures."
"First, call it the Vibrating Bamboo Spear."
"When you no longer need to make contact with the array's core."
"It can also complete the power cycle."
"Let's talk about true Martial Soul Fusion again."
afternoon.
The Godwind Academy team arrived ahead of schedule.
Dong Jian is practicing Short Tremor with his left foot on the training field.
Five times in a row.
Only two of them landed accurately at the target location.
A voice came from above.
"Good ground control."
"Unfortunately, it's of little use to the heavens."
Dong Jian looked up.
A young man stands atop a stone pillar in the training field.
Her dark blue hair swayed in the wind.
He has an upright posture.
He had a relaxed smile on his face.
Its wings were not spread behind it.
The air, however, was already slowly swirling around him.
Feng Xiaotian.
"Godwind Academy."
The young man jumped from the stone pillar.
Before landing.
A gust of air supported his body.
It made him barely make a sound.
"Two ring roads?"
Feng Xiaotian glanced at the Soul Ring at Dong Jian's feet.
"I heard you just affected Yu Feng with ground tremors."
Want to give me a try?
Qin Ming did not stop him.
How do I try it?
Dong Jian asked.
"Ten breaths."
Feng Xiaotian said:
"You only need to touch my clothes once."
Even if you win.
"Neither foot may leave the training ground area."
"I won't fly above thirty meters either."
Dong Jian unleashes the Panda Martial Soul.
"Can."
The timer has started.
Feng Xiaotian did not rise in altitude.
It moves rapidly only a few feet off the ground.
Dong Jian first used Short Tremor to determine the impact point.
It can fall with fluctuations.
Feng Xiaotian has already changed direction by using the airflow.
The second time.
Li Man did not set up a formation.
Dong Jian could only rely on Listening to the Wind to Discern Position.
But the wind was blowing everywhere.
Feng Xiaotian deliberately used airflow to create a false sound.
The third time.
Dong Jian used the Light-Body Bear Steps.
The first step is approaching.
The second step is to turn.
His palm was only half a foot away from the hem of Feng Xiaotian's clothes.
Feng Xiaotian's body suddenly shifted backward.
It did not land.
There was no obvious flapping of wings.
The ten breaths have ended.
Dong Jian never encountered it.
Feng Xiaotian landed back on the ground.
"You're not someone who can't hit things in the air."
"The problem lies in your judgment."
Dong Jian looked at him.
"What's the meaning?"
"All your attacks."
Feng Xiaotian said:
"It all begins after the other person lands."
"Find the landing point first."
"Use oscillation again."
"Effective against Yu Feng."
"Because he's used to regaining momentum after a drop in elevation."
"A true flying-type Soul Master."
"Before landing."
"The next direction has already been decided."
He pointed to his shoulders and waist.
"Before the wings turn."
"The body will change first."
Before the airflow changed.
"The center of gravity will shift first."
"Wait until your feet touch the ground."
"It's too late."
Dong Jian was not dissatisfied with the defeat.
Instead, he carefully observed Feng Xiaotian's posture.
Shoulder.
waist.
airflow.
These are all signals that will appear before the lander lands.
Kung Fu Deconstruction involves more than just observing ground movements.
That's all in the past.
He habitually begins all his judgments with a step-by-step observation.
"One more time?"
Dong Jian asked.
Feng Xiaotian laughed.
"Tomorrow."
"You already know the problem today."
"Continuing to try will only repeat the failure."
Just then...
Footsteps could be heard outside the training area.
The Blazing Fire Academy team has arrived.
The girl walking at the front had long, dark red hair.
She is tall and slender.
His eyes were like burning flames.
Huo Wu.
She had just entered the training field.
Then they saw Dugu Yan and Li Man still discussing the Simulation battle from the morning.
"Once the poisonous fog covers the center..."
Dugu Yan said:
"Your key point can only be entered from the outside."
"If I were you."
"We will not continue to fight for control."
"Instead, we'll hand over the finishing position to Tian Heng."
Li Man replied:
"If all control is made way for a strong attack."
"Control System are just a different way of providing assistance."
Dugu Yan sneered.
"You haven't even mastered the team's rhythm."
"Don't talk about the end yet."
Huo Wu heard this.
They suddenly stopped walking.
She looked at Li Man.
"Are you new to the Control System?"
Li Man turned around.
"Yes."
"I heard your control Soul Skill can also attack directly."
Huo Wu entered the training ground.
Three Soul Ring, two yellow and one purple, gradually rose beneath his feet.
The scorching heat then spread.
"Fight me."
Dugu Yan crossed her arms.
"She hasn't even got her own team under control yet."
Huo Wu didn't look at Dugu Yan.
His gaze remained fixed on Li Man.
I was asking about her.
Li Man lifted the Green Jade Bamboo.
Two Yellow Soul Ring slowly appeared.
"Can."
Huo Wu's lips curled into a smile.
"Single-player battle."
"Let me see."
"Are you Control System user?"
"Still just Power Attack System that only uses bamboo for sneak attacks."
