299: Special Training 2

"I can't attack? And three bosses?" Huang Chen said with a tearful face. "The bosses' skill ranges are huge, and they're so agile. Forget three, I might not even be able to dodge one completely."

"Hmph!" Zi Han pulled out a bunch of grapes from who knows where and said lightly, "Monsters are different from you. Their skills don't lock on. If you can't even dodge this, then your Movement Skill practice tonight was a total waste."

After speaking, Zi Han sat cross-legged in mid-air, watching Huang Chen jump around frantically as he was pummeled by the three bosses. His HP was thick enough, and with Bai Zhaoning's Life Link, there was basically no danger, apart from getting bruised and swollen.

He persisted for about an hour without any progress. Although his basic Movement Skill realm seemed to have peaked, when facing the attacks of three bosses, he often dodged one only to be hit by another.

Huang Chen threw down the burden and flatly said, "Are you fucking messing with me? It's impossible to dodge this."

"That just means you suck!" Zi Han shook her head, starting to reflect on whether signing the Symbiotic Contract with Huang Chen at the time had been too impulsive.

"If you're so good, you try it!" Huang Chen retorted defiantly.

"Get lost!" Zi Han said, and then her figure slowly descended into the middle of the three bosses.

The Ice Soul Demon Bear King saw someone suddenly appear in the field, and swung its massive fist directly at Zi Han. However, Zi Han only retreated half a meter and dodged the Ice Soul Demon Bear King's strike.

Coincidentally, the Ice Wolf King behind Zi Han opened its mouth and bit down. Zi Han slightly turned halfway, dodging the Wolf King's bite, and then shifted half a step to the left, avoiding the Earth-Splitting Mammoth's charge.

Huang Chen stared dumbfounded at the comical scene before him.

Because of Zi Han's dodge and yield, the Earth-Splitting Mammoth's massive body crashed directly into the Wolf King's waist, the Wolf King's large mouth bit the Bear King's arm, and the Bear King's giant fist heavily smashed the Earth-Splitting Mammoth's head.

All three were injured!!

Zi Han, who caused all this, moved with the ease of a stroll through a garden from beginning to end. Moreover, her speed looked very slow, giving the false impression that someone with a Movement Skill stat of only 100 could easily achieve it.

Watching her graceful posture and relaxed expression, Huang Chen put away his look of dissatisfaction and seriously observed Zi Han's every dodge... "This must be the highest realm of Maneuvering!" Huang Chen thought internally.

At this moment, the Combat Awareness and experience he had always been proud of were utterly shattered by Zi Han.

A few minutes later, Zi Han gently waved her hand, and the three bosses were restrained in place, unable to move.

Huang Chen was horrified to discover that in just these few minutes, all these bosses had lost about 5% of their HP.

It must be noted that Zi Han had kept her hands behind her back the entire time and hadn't made a single move.

"Did you see clearly?" Zi Han flew next to Huang Chen and asked.

"My brain understood..." Huang Chen nodded, then shook his head again: "But my limbs probably failed to learn!"

"..."

Zi Han gently waved her hand and pushed Huang Chen back in front of the three bosses.

"If you're weak, practice more!"

"Alright!" Huang Chen was much more obedient now. Seeing her Movement Skill, he finally understood Zi Han's statement that Returning to Simplicity was only the beginning.

He had to admit, this excited Huang Chen immensely. If he could also reach this realm, it would be a qualitative leap in his strength.

When Huang Chen faced the three bosses again, the scene changed.

Zi Han fighting the three bosses was called elegant, but Huang Chen going in was called a complete disaster.

"How can you dodge if you always wait for them to attack?" Zi Han's voice rang in Huang Chen's ear. "Just like when you are about to throw a punch, doesn't your arm extend outwards first? You need to Anticipate... You are truly slow!"

Huang Chen was greatly shaken by Zi Han's words. Wasn't this the essence of Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do?

He began to seriously observe the bosses' movements, learning to judge the direction and landing point of their attacks... For the next dozen hours, under Zi Han's guidance, Huang Chen continuously improved his Maneuvering, Anticipation, and awareness.

When tired or sleepy, he would consume the Essence and Physique items obtained in the Land of Skeletons to recover.

Slowly, although he still got bruised and swollen, the number of times he was hit began to decrease. Sometimes, he could even guide the bosses into attacking each other, just like Zi Han.

While Huang Chen was undergoing Zi Han's Special Training, the Forbidden City Legion was also diligently practicing their Movement Skill. Their strength had greatly improved, going from constantly being blasted away by monsters to now being able to hold their own against them.

Soon, Tie Shengnan also discovered Huang Chen's training method.

Since she couldn't handle the bosses, she lured four regular monsters to practice with.

Her talent was completely incomparable to Huang Chen's. In just those ten hours, her Movement Skill actually broke through from the Great Success realm to the Proficient realm.

Zi Han looked at Tie Shengnan and nodded secretly. This little girl's comprehension and talent were far superior to that pig Huang Chen... Just as Huang Chen led the entire Forbidden City Legion through Zi Han's Special Training, the Elf Clan in 21542 also welcomed their most significant crisis in the Star Abyss.

A huge chat interface was projected onto the center of the Tree House Council Hall. On the light screen, the scene outside Jinling City was clearly reflected.

Nearly a million members of the Vajra Race stood silently on the plain outside the city, exuding a cold, fierce aura.

Leading them was the Vajra Clan Leader—Jin Duo! He wore Dark Golden Heavy Armor, his face was rough, and his eyes were cruel and mocking.

And kneeling before him were rows upon rows of figures!

They were Elves! Numbering tens of thousands.

Most of them were ragged and haggard, wearing cold Metal Collars on their slender necks. Chains extended from the collars, held tightly in the hands of the Vajra Race warriors behind them! Their eyes were hollow, like soulless puppets, with lingering tear stains on their faces.

"Elise!" Jin Duo's voice echoed through the entire Council Hall via the light screen. "Look at the flowers of the Elf Clan! So delicate, so delicious!"

He grinned maliciously, extended a golden-tinged finger, and roughly hooked the chin of an Elf girl kneeling at his feet.

Extreme fear and humiliation instantly erupted in the girl's eyes, and her body trembled violently.

"They are now the slaves of my Vajra Race! The spoils of war for our warriors!" Jin Duo looked at Elise with eyes full of sadistic pleasure. "I heard your Elf Clan is noble and inviolable?"

"Jin Duo!" Elise screamed furiously, "What exactly do you want?"

"Heh heh!" Jin Duo's mouth curved into a horrifying arc: "I just want to abuse Elves... In a moment, I will broadcast this 'action movie' live across Zone 21542, letting everyone see how different your noble Elf bodies are from mortals!!"

"Beast!!"

"Demon!!"

"Let's fight them!!"

The Council Hall instantly exploded! The young members of the Elf Clan had bloodshot eyes, their rage breaking through the restraints of fear, roaring and ready to rush out and fight to the death.

Several Elders trembled with anger, tears streaming down their faces.

"Get your butt over here and meet me right now. It doesn't matter how many people you bring," Jin Duo laughed sinisterly. "Otherwise, I really will broadcast it live."
