Chapter 41 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

Wu Zhangkong said calmly: "Okay, that's all I have to say about mechas today. You only need to remember two key points.
First, truly powerful mechas are called battle armors. Truly powerful soul masters rely on weapons that are in the form of battle armors.

Second, you need to decide on a second career for yourself that is related to mecha within three years."

It is easy to remember and these are the things that Nan Fusheng and his classmates are most interested in. This class is very simple.

At this time, Tang Wulin suddenly said: "Teacher Wu, when can we see the real battle armor?" He had been listening very carefully before, and only now did he say what he wanted to know most in his heart.

Wu Zhangkong glanced at him and said, "When you finish the first stage of practical training, I will let you see the battle armor. Whoever finishes first will get to see it first. You are not qualified yet."

Actual combat training? Actual combat training between soul masters?
Before the students could ask, Wu Zhangkong continued, "Today's next lesson is a practical exercise. It will be right here. Nan Fusheng and Tang Wulin, the two of you help them push the desks to a far distance and clear the center of the classroom."

Here? If the soul master's ability is used, wouldn't it be easy to destroy it?

Nan Fusheng and the other six people all had the same doubts in their minds, but they still did as Wu Changkong said.

"Tang Wulin, come to me." Wu Zhangkong nodded to Tang Wulin.

"Yes." Tang Wulin stepped forward quickly.

"What do you think of your match yesterday?" Wu Changkong asked coldly.

After thinking for a moment, Tang Wulin said, "We are all too eager for quick success. After all, we are classmates and should not hurt each other. We should stop at the right time."

Wu Zhangkong waved his hand, "I'm not asking you these questions. I'm asking you how you felt during the battle. How do you think you performed during the game?"

Tang Wulin said, "The process was a bit chaotic. It was the first time for us to see each other's abilities. During the response, there was a bit of confusion and lack of coordination. I mean the four of us. They coordinated at the time, but it didn't seem like they had a particularly good rapport."

Wu Zhangkong said coldly: "Chaos? It's more than just chaos, it's simply a mess."

As soon as these words came out, except for Nan Fusheng, the other five were all stunned. As the best of the first-year freshmen, students of the special class zero specially approved by the academy, except for Tang Wulin, everyone else was very confident in their abilities. How could this word chaos come from?

Wu Zhangkong stared into Tang Wulin's eyes and said, "To be honest, I'm very disappointed. The four of you have been learning from me for three months. Your coordination with each other can barely be considered proficient.

However, from the beginning of the game, you gave up your advantage. Xie Xie's arm deserved to be broken."

Xie Xie's expression froze. He hadn't expected that the teacher would comment on him in this way.

Next, Wu Zhangkong attacked the six people, pointing out all their shortcomings in the promotion match and belittling them to nothing, but they were unable to refute.

Wu Changkong's criticisms were very incisive.

Finally, Wu Zhangkong said coldly: "The six of you have a common problem, which is what you will solve in the next practical class.

That is, you are seriously lacking in actual combat experience and skills. What I am talking about is not your combat experience using martial spirits and spirit skills.

You are also lacking in that aspect, but not too much. What you lack more is the basic combat ability when not using martial spirits."

Basic combat ability? Do soul masters need this? Don't soul masters only need to release soul skills to achieve combat goals?
"Do you think that the basic combat ability I mentioned is meaningless?"

Gu Yue said: "Yes, Teacher Wu. My ability is element control. During the battle, I only need to constantly suppress the opponent through elements.
Whether it's a single enemy or a group of enemies, as long as the elements I control are strong enough, I can end the battle. Basic combat ability doesn't seem to make sense to me. What I should do is to improve my soul power and mental strength. "

Wu Zhangkong nodded.

"If you think so, then let's do a test. Gu Yue, you come out too.

You and Tang Wulin, attack me together. I will not use any soul skills, but will suppress my soul power to the same level as yours, about level 13. Let's see if you can defeat me. Well, activate your martial soul as well."

As he spoke, Wu Zhangkong turned around and picked up a teaching stick from the podium. Then he returned to the center.

Gu Yue had already stepped forward and came to Tang Wulin's side. At the same level, he didn't use spirit skills? He didn't even use martial spirits? Wasn't he looking down on people?
After three months of training, Gu Yue and Tang Wulin had already established a certain tacit understanding. The two of them joined forces, one focusing on close combat and the other on long-range attacks.

Unfortunately, no matter how well they understood each other, they could not cause any trouble in the face of Wu Changkong. Instead, they were taught a lesson by Wu Changkong's exquisite swordsmanship and Tang Sect's unique skills. When the battle was over, the other four looked at each other in bewilderment.

This……

So strong.

The classroom suddenly became quiet. Wu Zhangkong reappeared in front of Tang Wulin, but his eyes were fixed on the gradually fading golden scales on Tang Wulin's right arm, with a thoughtful look on his face.

“Teacher, were the skills you just used basic?” Xie Xie stared at Wu Changkong with his eyes wide open.

Wu Zhangkong nodded, "Do you still think that basic skills are useless? Basic skills are the root of everything.

Martial spirits and spirit skills can certainly make spirit masters powerful, but how to use them is the fundamental factor that determines how powerful you are.

Basic skills are the way to apply them, and they also exist in battle armor or ordinary mechas. Therefore, starting from today, for a long time to come, practicing basic combat skills will be an important subject for you. "

Of course, Wu Changkong did this more to "kill the chicken to scare the monkey" and to dispel the arrogance of Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi who were watching the battle on the sidelines. After all, these two people were geniuses in their original class and had basically no rivals.

If the two are not punished first, they may become troublemakers in subsequent training.

As for why Tang Wulin was chosen? Of course, it was because he beat Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi the hardest in the promotion match, and both of them had some psychological trauma.

Gu Yue was also there because she stood up to refute his point of view. In order to better lead Class Zero in the future and also let Gu Yue realize her own shortcomings, Wu Changkong let her go with him.
After all, in the previous promotion match, Gu Yue relied on his own strength to force Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi to use their martial soul fusion skills to defeat the two together, which would also make others more convinced of his words.

However, he did not choose Nan Fusheng. The reason was very simple. If the scene where he almost disfigured himself happened again, it would not be conducive to him establishing the "dignity of a teacher". What he wanted was an absolutely overwhelming victory.

Moreover, because Nan Fusheng had been slacking off before, Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi did not have a deep impression of him.

In fact, regarding this matter, he also privately consulted with Nan Fusheng (under the influence of the Time Worm), asking him if there was any problem? But later the other party seemed to explain it to him, and he accepted the other party's explanation.

But what did Nan Fusheng explain? Why didn't he remember it now? Never mind. If there were no questions, he shouldn't ask any more. This would damage his dignity as a teacher.

And the result was very successful. Now Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi were sitting there upright, listening carefully to Wu Changkong's words.
