343: Section 343
Few people would believe it if I said it out loud.
But Wei Nan believed him: "You dragged me out of bed this early in the morning just to show off your new Spearmanship, didn't you?"
"Let's just say it's a spear technique you inexplicably comprehended; does it have a name?"
Lin Yi shook his head: "I only just had an Epiphany, I haven't had time to name it yet!"
Wei Nan: "..."
Looking at that smug expression on Lin Yi's face.
Wei Nan finally truly realized the true meaning of the saying: comparisons are odious.
It was just past five in the morning today.
Wei Nan was still tucked in bed having a sweet dream when Lin Yi dragged him out.
He hauled the still-sleepy Wei Nan to the Training Grounds, saying he wanted to test the new spear he bought yesterday.
Yawning, Wei Nan arrived at the Weapon Hall.
He accompanied Lin Yi to practice the spear here.
At the beginning, Wei Nan was just dozing off the whole time.
He wasn't fully awake at all and couldn't take anything in, sitting on the side in a half-asleep, half-awake state.
As a result, he was slowly captivated by Lin Yi's Spearmanship.
Until that soul-shaking Tiger Roar.
It completely woke Wei Nan up.
What drove him to despair was that others could casually comprehend a whole set of spear techniques.
While he hadn't even been able to find a suitable fist technique for himself despite a long search.
No wonder Lin Yi could become the Martial Exam Top Scholar of the Old District.
Isn't this the gap between us?
"How about Tiger Roar Spear Technique?"
Lin Yi said to Wei Nan with a smile.
"Is that the name of the spear technique from just now?" Wei Nan asked curiously.
Seeing Lin Yi nod, he immediately rejected it.
"Too tacky, not a shred of originality, and it doesn't highlight the dominance of the spear technique!"
"How about you practice it one more time, and I'll help you think it over?" Wei Nan said solemnly.
Lin Yi nodded and walked back to the center.
He rested the spear tip on the ground, his hand gripping the tiger head on the end of the spear.
His gaze gradually sharpened.
The next moment, Lin Yi performed that set of spear techniques again.
This time, Wei Nan stood there, pinching his chin.
Watching every strike Lin Yi made carefully.
Only then did he realize with surprise that every time the spear swept past, it brought up a gust of wind.
And the wind was accompanied by bursts of low, deep Tiger Roars.
The momentum was incomparably domineering; even Wei Nan, who was watching from the side, felt a sense of shock in his heart.
"Tiger Claw, Tiger Tail, Tiger Pounce... Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain, Hungry Tiger Snatching Food, Tiger Roar Over Mountains and Rivers..."
Watching every strike Lin Yi made, Wei Nan couldn't help but come up with names for the moves.
When the spear swept horizontally, it actually felt like a fierce tiger swinging its tail.
Every spear move and technique had the shadow of a White Tiger...
Aooo—
With another Tiger Roar, Lin Yi retracted his spear and glanced back at Wei Nan.
"How was it? Did it give you any inspiration?"
Lin Yi said, looking at Wei Nan with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Nan could not hide the shock on his face.
"I thought of a few, but they weren't domineering enough. Compared to the spear technique you just used, they seemed too soft and weak!"
"How about we just call it Tiger Roar Spear Technique for now? We can always change it later when we think of a better name!"
Wei Nan said with a dry laugh.
Lin Yi nodded; he didn't really care about the name of the spear technique.
What he really cared about was that the Tiger Head Spear could actually establish a connection with his mind.
And it even resonated with the White Tiger in his Domain.
This actually surprised Lin Yi a little.
It could even be considered a pleasant surprise.
"Fine, let's just call it Tiger Roar!"
Lin Yi nodded.
After the two finished discussing, they were just about to walk out.
Only then did they notice that twenty or thirty students had gathered outside the Weapon Hall.
Some of them were freshmen who had just enrolled, like Lin Yi.
Others were sophomores and juniors.
Their gazes were full of surprise, shock, and disbelief.
Obviously, they had all seen Lin Yi's spear technique just now.
"Make way..."
When Lin Yi and Wei Nan opened the doors of the Weapon Hall and walked out.
The students outside had actually blocked the door tightly.
It wasn't until Wei Nan shouted that they came back to their senses.
When they looked at Lin Yi again, there was a bit more complexity in their eyes.
Lin Yi politely nodded at them and walked outside.
"Isn't that guy the Martial Exam Top Scholar from the Old District?"
"Yes, I saw him on the day school started!"
"What kind of monster is he? Not long ago, he seemed to have practiced some kind of fist technique that didn't look simple, and that spear technique just now... it must be a High-Tier Martial Skill, right?"
"A High-Tier Martial Skill? That seems unlikely, right?"
"Didn't you see the spear technique he just practiced? Besides a High-Tier Martial Skill, what other grade of Martial Skill could have that kind of effect?"
"I told you long ago that kid is not simple. Ever since Chen Hao was forced to transfer from District 1 to District 9, and the Chen Family subsequently faded away, he hasn't been that simple!"
"The Chen Family fading away, does that have anything to do with him?"
"Isn't he just a Martial arts examinee from the Old District? How could he have such great power?"
"Heh! A Martial arts examinee from the Old District? Haven't you figured it out yet? If he were really just an ordinary Martial arts examinee, would he be qualified to live in District 1?"
"I also seem to have heard that it was the Yi Family who took down the Chen Family. Could he be from the Yi Family..."
"Hiss~ Now that you mention it, that's actually possible!"
"Damn, we'd better provoke him less in the future. Avoid him when we see him, don't court disaster. If he really is from the Yi Family, offending him might make us the next Chen Hao!"
The more they talked, the more terrified they became.
In the end, they were all panicked and uneasy.
However, regarding their gossip.
Lin Yi and Wei Nan were completely unaware. After changing their clothes.
They went straight to the Cafeteria in District 1.
When the two walked in, quite a few students were already eating in the Cafeteria.
"Over here..."
Suddenly, Zhou Qi waved at them.
Lin Yi and Wei Nan also nodded at them.
They first went to get their trays and got their food at the serving window.
Only then did they walk over to Zhou Qi, Sun Tao, and Shen Mengyi.
"Where is Sister Xue? Didn't she come with you?"
After Lin Yi sat down, he realized Qin Zhaoxue was not there.
They had clearly all come back together yesterday.
Shen Mengyi shook her head: "Senior Brother Lin, do you not carry your phone when you go out? Senior Sister seems to have sent you a message. Early this morning, she was called away by Captain Chu, saying they had a case!"
"Oh? Is that so?"
Lin Yi hurriedly reached out to check for his phone.
As a result, his pockets were empty.
He then remembered that he had left too hurriedly in the morning, and Xiao Qi was still sleeping.
Therefore, Lin Yi hadn't even brought Xiao Qi, and had left the dormitory in a rush.
It was mainly because last night, while in the [Galaxy Qi Transformation Technique] Domain, a set of spear techniques had been derived in his mind.
