Chapter 137: The Life Star Prism
The so-called test of Shuijing is not complicated. First, it's the strength of spiritual power; second, it's basic martial arts; third, it's actual combat.
Boom! Su Dong swung his fist at the target for testing spiritual power, and a visible electric light flew into the machine at high speed. This was different from the testing machines used in the North, in the Casting Ice God's Castle, and seemed to be more advanced here.
A huge metal object like a closed cabinet, Shuijing walked behind the test machine and recorded the various indicators on the dial.
"Soul Master Third Level!? I wouldn't have thought your soul power was that strong, but don't get too proud. Firstly, soul power isn't the only indicator of combat strength, and secondly, a Soul Master Third Level is just average at the Wudang Academy." Shuijing said as she recorded.
Su Dong was well aware that due to technical limitations, they could currently only test for the intensity, purity and type of spiritual energy, aside from these three indicators, there was another crucial indicator - spiritual energy reserves.
A warrior with poor spiritual energy reserves is useless even if their strength is high, they can only throw one punch before running out of energy. This lack of combat endurance is terrible, and if they can't take down the enemy with one move, things will get very bad afterwards.
Su Dong gathered the spiritual energy of the world, so he had a strong reserve, and he could always challenge stronger warriors beyond his level. No way, who let Su Dong's spiritual energy be so abundant? Even if it took a thousand rounds, Su Dong would still accompany him.
It's only been a month since Su Dong broke through the crucial barrier of Fa Zun, and now his level has soared to Fa Zun third grade! This data left Huan Yu feeling emotional, as Su Dong's level was rising like a rocket, unstoppable.
Shuijing finished recording Su Dong's various indicators and was shocked. She looked at the data she had recorded, then turned her head to look at Su Dong again.
Taking a deep breath, Shuijingdao said: "I must take back my words, because I didn't expect that you would actually be the Quanxi Lingli! And your purity is even over 60%!"
"Power index 5100 pounds, spiritual power index 3100 pounds, just broke the 60% purity standard, meeting the standards of an elite warrior. The key is that your spiritual power is full system, which will give you crazy destructive power! Assuming the remaining two items are qualified, you can directly enter the advanced class to study."
The second item was a martial arts assessment, and Shuijing found an empty room for Su Dong to demonstrate the martial arts he had learned so far.
Su Dong practiced a martial art from head to toe, Bi Luo Huang Quan, a demonic tribe's combat technique that countered attacks with attacks, and he performed it in front of the Water Mirror.
"Mazoku martial arts!?" Mizukagami exclaimed, "This martial art is very special, and it's probably a rare kind even in the demon realm. As for its level, I don't know, but it definitely won't be low."
Su Dong didn't show much, but in fact he deliberately did not fully exert the characteristics of Bi Luo Huang Quan. Now Su Dong has cultivated to six heavy skies and can release six heavy spiritual powers. If Su Dong were to use his full strength, the effect would be even more astonishing. This room might not be able to withstand Su Dong's violent attack method.
Putting down the notebook in her hand, Shuijing tied up her long black hair and took a defensive stance, saying in a low voice: "Alright, I've got a good grasp of your basics. Now it's time for the final item - actual combat."
"This test is a trial of your will, that is to say, how strong your desire for battle is, and how you make decisions in the face of danger. These qualities are all closely related to combat effectiveness. Now come at me with all your might."
Su Dong furrowed his brow, and even the Water Mirror and Ling Jia didn't wear it, just letting himself attack with all his might? What a joke! Su Dong certainly didn't want to beat this beauty into pieces on the spot. Once Bi Luo Huang Quan's nine heavens erupted, its power was no trivial matter.
"What's wrong? Are you scared?" Shuijing asked with a smile.
Su Dong shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid, of course. I just worry that you can't withstand my attack. You saw it earlier, I only know those attacking moves that clash with each other, isn't this a test of spiritual strength? My willpower is still decent, so let's test it."
"Ha ha, you're underestimating me! If you don't want to make a move, then I'll take action!"
Su Dong nodded very seriously.
"Prism!"
His voice fell, and four transparent crystals flew out from behind the water mirror, which was his natal star!
No wonder Shuijing is called by this name, it turns out that her birth star is actually Lengjing! A very special existence!
Four lucky stars are quickly arranged, each of which is a polyhedron. The light in the room is refracted by these polyhedra to form strange shadows, wrapping the water mirror inside.
Splash! The Water Mirror took a step forward and arrived in front of Su Dong, its right arm swung out, and the shadow brought by the mirror also attacked, looking very strange.
Su Dong was taken aback, his keen senses telling him that it wasn't the Water Mirror attacking him, but rather the refracted light from the prism!
After passing through multiple crystal refractions, the light and shadow became somewhat dim. Su Dong seemed to be in a battlefield of chaotic light, where all the light rays were curved.
Rumble rumble ~ Su Dong faced the attack, of course, with a counterattack, also with his right fist, striking in the direction of Shuijing's punch.
A rare scene appeared, Su Dong's fist was more than a meter away from Shuijing's fist, but it seemed to have encountered some kind of obstacle!
After one blow, Su Dong used his Flashing Spirit Step to move a few feet to the side. At this moment, his right fist was very painful, as if someone had bitten it.
"Come again!"
Shuijing's strange attack method piqued Su Dong's curiosity, and he no longer considered whether or not he would hurt Shuijing, focusing on launching a full-on assault!
Su Dong had never encountered such a strange battle in his life. Although the Water Mirror didn't move, it was getting farther and farther away from him, and Su Dong couldn't catch up to her!
Gritting his teeth, Su Dong strongly restrained himself from making a move with the dagger. It wasn't wise to reveal his trump card at the very beginning of the battle. It was better to first observe why Shui Jing was acting so strangely.
The situation was developing in a direction unfavorable to Su Dong, the water mirror in Su Dong's eyes appeared in the west for a moment and then reappeared in the east, completely bewildering, within a few short minutes, making Su Dong chase after it with some fatigue.
"This is the master star of the light system, a very powerful one! The light is completely under her control, and even what you see with your eyes may not be real!" Yu Huan whispered in Su Dong's ear.
No need to mention Yu Yu, Su Dong also clearly felt that his vision had a big problem. The light and shadow of those prisms were constantly being refracted, making the room become strange and illusory, everything became unreal.
Rumble rumble ~ Su Dong seemed to suddenly go crazy, and punched the ground with a fist!
The force was immense, and the ground made of piled rocks suddenly cracked with countless fissures, while the water mirror in Su Dong's eyes also became distorted.
This situation can only explain one thing, that is, Su Dong's vision was indeed interfered with. From an optical perspective, deceiving a person's eyes is not difficult, just like binoculars, which can make people see very far away as if it were in front of them.
The method of the water mirror is certainly more complicated than that of the telescope, but the principle is the same. Through the transformation of light by the Benming star prism, the water mirror is not in Su Dong's line of sight at all. She can be anywhere!
Fortunately, this was just a test; if it were real combat, Su Dong would have been in big trouble.
When Su Dong saw Shui Jing attacking from the opposite side, it was likely that she was actually ambushing Su Dong from behind! In this case, whether Su Dong advanced or defended forward, he would fall into the trap and be stabbed several times from behind.
The reason must be on the Benming star of Shuǐjìng, but unfortunately this is a trial, Sū Dōng cannot take out the hammer to smash the Benming star of Shuǐjìng, and even if Sū Dōng takes action, it's not necessarily possible to succeed. After all, the optical effect has already disrupted Sū Dōng's vision, and even the Benming star of Shuǐjìng may not be in the position where Sū Dōng's eyes are looking.
All of this is like an illusion, even more terrifying than an illusion!
Su Dong's brain was racing with thoughts, a precious experience on how to deal with the opponent when they possessed a magical ace.
Use arrays?
Su Dong quickly vetoed this idea, the Qimen formation method was of course trustworthy, but Su Dong who liked to think deeply wanted to know if he could handle such a complex situation without using the formation method.
Shuijing watched Su Dong's embarrassed smile with great amusement, saying: "How about it? I told you that you can't hurt me, the Water Family's Benming Star, not to mention the strongest in the entire Divine Realm, but absolutely belongs to the first-class!"
"I originally only wanted to take out two diamonds, but you actually looked down on me, so I had to take out four, to teach you a lesson and let you know that women are not easy to bully either!"
Su Dong stopped in his tracks, seemingly having made up his mind. He said calmly, "Firstly, I never think anyone is easy to bully. Secondly, in my thinking, there are only enemies, no distinction between men and women. Thirdly, you are ugly."
As soon as the words fell, Su Dong suddenly exerted his legs and burst into the air, striking a hammer at the light that illuminated the room!
At this moment, Shuijing was in a state of mental confusion and had no idea what Su Dong was doing.
The first two sentences were still somewhat reasonable, but unfortunately the third sentence suddenly turned around and actually scolded Shuijing as an ugly freak!
Not to mention that Shuijing is a pretty girl, even if she were ugly, she would never like being scolded as an ugly freak, this is simply more heart-wrenching for her than killing her own family.
Boom!
The light went out and the room suddenly darkened a lot, although there was still light outside the window, but the instantaneous change in light still allowed Su Dong to observe the true location of the water mirror for an instant.
The next second, Su Dong rushed up! Raised the six-edged snowflake hammer in his hand and slammed it down!
There's no doubt that Su Dong's tactics were vicious, but they were also effective. From the moment he insulted Shui Jing as a freak, everything had fallen into Su Dong's plan. The battle was like this - one second of mental imbalance led to Shui Jing thoroughly losing, she even forgot to dodge Su Dong's attack in her anger.
Boom! The wall was smashed into powder by Su Dong's one punch, while Ming Jing turned pale.
"You lost, as a warrior your mental state is clearly not strong enough." Su Dong said with a smile.
He had originally wanted to explain the rationality of this tactic to Shuijing, but unexpectedly, Shuijing was still staring at him coldly, as if he had a grudge against Su Dong.
"Who did you say is ugly?" Shuijing asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
"This is just a tactic, don't take it seriously." Su Dong said somewhat anxiously.
"I didn't take it seriously, but you have to tell me, why did you say I'm ugly?" Shuijing continued to ask persistently: "If you don't make it clear today, I won't let you off!"
"This is still called not being serious!?" Su Dong was completely speechless, women were indeed the most unreasonable creatures in the world!
Things are off to a bad start, Su Dong offended the Dean's daughter on his first day at Wudao Academy...
