Chapter 15: Is He Worthy?
Chapter 15: Is He Worthy?
The Evolution Camp aimed to nurture Evolvers who were brave in battle and fearless of death.
"Please perform your saber techniques," The saber instructor glanced at Wang Ye.
The student looked familiar. He should have seen him at the saber training hall before. However, he didn't have a deep impression of the student, so the other party's saber technique level probably wasn't too high.
"Alright."
Wang Ye bowed slightly and then began to perform the Nine Forms of the Basic Saber Techniques.
The moment he raised his knife, Instructor Xiao, who had an empty left sleeve, narrowed his eyes.
It was indeed him.
"Perfection. This is a genuine perfection-level Nine Forms of the Basic Saber Techniques."
With Instructor Xiao's strength, he could accurately judge Wang Ye's level from the latter's first move.
Although the student's saber technique was a little immature and lacked killing intent, his comprehension of the saber technique and the compatibility of the technique with his body was almost perfect.
In terms of level in the saber techniques, the student was on par with him.
Not only did this student have amazing talent in saber techniques, but he was also able to polish the basic saber techniques to such perfection... He must have worked very hard and put in a lot of effort.
The students of Class 23 were a little surprised at first.
In the combat assessment, everyone would perform various routine sword techniques, routine saber techniques, and routine spear techniques.
Who would perform basic saber techniques?
As everyone knew, basic techniques were extremely ineffective in actual combat.
However, as they watched Wang Ye perform the Nine Forms of the Basic Saber Techniques, they were inexplicably attracted.
It was as if he was not performing a saber technique, but demonstrating it, perfectly displaying the charm of the saber technique.
They didn't understand, but they were amazed.
This was especially true for the students who were also learning saber techniques. They felt as if they had suddenly gained an epiphany.
What kind of rubbish were the routine saber techniques they had practiced before? This was the real saber technique!
The saber instructor's eyes widened.
Rating? Was he worthy?
He himself was still at the bottleneck of the mastery level, just one step away from the perfection level.
Yet, this student from the ordinary class had already achieved that level?
It was unbelievable.
The saber instructor was entranced.
The weapon mastery assessment was supposed to only last for half a minute, but it was only when the swords instructor beside him reminded him that the saber instructor snap back to his senses and immediately called for Wang Ye to stop.
The saber instructor's eyes sparkled as he praised endlessly, "Perfection, simply perfection!"
He looked at the two intermediate instructors sitting at the main seat and saw that Instructor Xiao nodded with a smile.
"Weapon mastery, S."
When the staff member reported in a slightly hoarse voice, the students' first reaction was not to clamor, but to be dumbfounded.
Then, under Lu Yong's red-faced wild roar, a monstrous wave was set off.
The first S grade!
Although it was only one of the three tests of the combat assessment, it was the first S grade in Class 23!
Yu Haitao's eyes widened with anger.
How was he worthy?
The ordinary basic saber techniques were on a completely different level from his Rainbow Sword Technique. What right did Wang Ye have to get an S grade?!
Was he taking advantage of loopholes in the rules?
"The third segment is actual combat."
A young instructor had just stood up when he felt pressure on his shoulder as a light voice sounded in his ear. Instructor Xiao, who was sitting in the main seat, walked out with a smile, "Let me do it."
Another intermediate instructor smiled knowingly, knowing that his old friend was interested.
They were the second batch of Evolvers. They encountered a nightmare-level monster during a rescue mission and were seriously injured. As a result, they had no choice but to retire from the front lines and return to the Evolution Camp as instructors.
"Sabers focus on offense and neglect defense," Instructor Xiao wasn't tall, but when he drew his saber, he instantly exuded a majestic aura, "Let me see how good your saber technique's defense is."
Saber technique's defense?
What a coincidence. It was just so-so.
"Please advise me."
Wang Ye entered the zone.
He could feel the strong aura emitted by the one-armed instructor. It was the killing intent that had been honed from countless killings in the wild.
The moment the other party attacked, it was as if the most ferocious mutated monster was coming at him.
It was a very ordinary saber technique, a clean slash, but it was at the perfection level.
"He doesn't want to take advantage of me, huh?"
Wang Ye raised his saber to block and retreat. The one-armed instructor didn't display his absolute strength to crush others.
The instructor's control of strength was on par with his own, and his control of the body was also meticulous.
But in just a moment, the one-armed instructor's coming attacks were like a thunderstorm. His steps were fast, and his attacks were as fast as lightning. He didn't give Wang Ye any chance to catch his breath.
"He is indeed powerful."
Even if Wang Ye wanted to attack, he couldn't.
Although the one-armed instructor was using the same Nine Forms of the Basic Saber Techniques as him, the former's battle experience, awareness, and killing intent contained in the saber technique far exceeded his current self.
If he were to attack the other party, he would lose unless the instructor kept one hand to himself.
Limit break skill, Comprehensive Saber Technique!
Wang Ye responded calmly. This was the first time he had used the limit break skill, Comprehensive Saber Technique, in a real battle.
He had already simulated it countless times in the space of consciousness. The nine moves were combined into one, forming the Comprehensive Saber Technique and an airtight defense.
Compared to offense, the limit break skill, Comprehensive Saber Technique, was better at defense. It was a perfect combination of the basic saber techniques and flawless.
No matter which angles the attacks came from, he could deal with them steadily like an airtight round shield.
The more Instructor Xiao attacked, the happier he became.
He had seen many types of defensive saber techniques, but this was the first time he had seen the one used by this student.
It was simple and ordinary, but it returned to the essence of saber techniques. It contained a profound mystery that even he could not understand.
The student had only connected the nine moves, but the saber moves were perfectly linked and had endless variations.
From beginning to end, and from end to beginning.
Wonderful!
He did not expect to find such a good seedling in the ordinary classes.
Even the few genius students in the elite classes who had obtained an S-grade rating for their saber techniques were not as good as this student.
Very outstanding!
Moreover, his potential was limitless!
In particular, to be able to practice the Nine Forms of the Basic Saber Techniques to such a level, his willpower was impeccable.
"Bang!"
When the two sabers finally clashed, Instructor Xiao took a few steps back and put away his saber. He couldn't hide the smile on his face.
The tall instructor at the main seat laughed and gave him a thumbs up.
All the instructors were in a heated discussion, nodding non-stop.
"Combat practice, S!"
The staff reported the final result.
After the students were stunned for a moment and immediately cheered.
Another S grade! It was simply incomparable!
Zhao Xiaoyu was stunned. Wang Ye's shocking strength struck the depths of her heart, causing her heart to race.
There was only one person who could not accept it at all.
"I'm not convinced! Why?" Yu Haitao stood up angrily, veins bulging on his neck.
Wang Ye had been beaten up from the beginning to the end. He hadn't even taken the initiative to attack.
The instructor's attacks were not strong. Although he had the initiative, because he had controlled his strength, it gave people the feeling that he was simply practicing a routine.
Instructor Xiao glanced at Yu Haitao and ignored him. He continued to chat with the tall instructor.
"Why?"
The instructor looked at Yu Haitao as if he was looking at an ignorant teenager, "With his saber techniques, he can be an instructor in the saber training hall. You can't understand it because you're too weak."
The words were like knives.
Many students held back their laughter.
Wang Ye didn't. He covered his mouth and laughed out loud.
This instructor was too mean.
"I... I!" Yu Haitao's face turned red and he didn't know how to respond.
He wasn't trying to challenge the instructor's authority. He just acted on impulse.
"What do you mean? If you're not convinced, you can come up and fight. Let's see if your swordsmanship is weaker or his saber skills are stronger," The instructor retorted.
Yu Haitao gritted his teeth and squeezed out the ugliest smile in his life as he sat down.
He was not stupid. The huge difference in physical fitness alone was not something that weapons could make up for.
Besides, Wang Ye was in the limelight, so there was no need to provoke him at this time.
There would always be a chance!
Seeing Yu Haitao swallow his anger and admit defeat, Wang Ye sighed in his heart.
What a good opportunity. Unfortunately, the other party didn't take the bait.
"What was that move called?" Instructor Xiao chuckled.
"Comprehensive Saber Technique," Wang Ye said.
"Self-created?" Instructor Xiao couldn't hide the admiration in his eyes.
"Of course," Wang Ye didn't hesitate.
Well, he had indeed comprehended it himself.
"Very outstanding. You have a bright future," Instructor Xiao was full of praise.
The staff quickly announced the results of the combat assessment.
"ID W1012323. Wang Ye. Training time A, weapon mastery S, actual combat training S. Overall assessment score: S!"
Class 23 was in an uproar again. The cheers went straight to the ceiling!
