Chapter 71: Training in Combat Techniques (Fourth Update)

  Xu Xuan and Xu Caiyue looked curiously at the empty can under the table, this thing is too effective, right? Looking at him getting excited like that...

  "Hehe, let's see what kind of man my cousin has chosen. What skills does he have?" Xǔ Xuān led a few people towards the school gymnasium. Anyway, the key to the main gate was in her hand, so they might as well use such a good practice venue.

  Unless it's a big game, the school gym is off-limits. Xu Xuan only managed to get permission to use the gym because of rehearsals for the play. Coincidentally, Xu Jian was teaching Zhou Yun some secret techniques that couldn't be seen by others, so hiding in the gym to train was perfect.

  Standing in the center of the basketball court, Zhou Yun rolled up his sleeves and beckoned to Xu Jian: "Xu the Great, come on over!"

  "Huh?" Xǔ Jiàn looked at Zhōu Yún with some confusion. What's this kid so excited about? Training in combat skills should start from the basics, strengthening physical abilities and stabilizing techniques. Who says you can go straight into actual combat?

  "Xiao Jian, don't be polite, I recently discovered that Xiao Yun seems to understand heteropathy as well." Xu Xuan thought excitedly, wondering if her older brother could force out another of Xiao Yun's ultimate skills.

  "Huh?" He smiled slightly, seemingly interested. Xǔ Jiàn slowly took off his jacket: "No wonder you're so excited, eager for revenge? Let's play along..."

  "Hey, I wouldn't dare... Big Uncle." Zhou Yunhou called out with a thick face.

  "Who is your uncle!......" Two steps dash, Xu Jian suddenly popped up a flying kick. The force was strong and fierce, and the one who was hit would definitely be injured.

  A faint smile flashed across his lips, Zhou Yun had long been prepared for this, and he was waiting for Xu Jian to make the first move.

  "Too slow!" Zhou Yun said coolly, then suddenly appeared behind Xu Jian: "Essence of Body Technique! Thousand Year Kill!!!" Last time he lost, this time he would risk his life to take back the stage.

  "!!!!!" Behind him, he suddenly felt a chill wind, and Xu Jian hurriedly flipped forward. This kid is so despicable! What move doesn't he use?! If he gets hit, it's not just a matter of getting hurt, his future will be in question. Just thinking about it made Xu Jian break out in cold sweat.

  "Haha" Zhou Yun stood with his hands clasped together, saying with great satisfaction: "Boss Jian, just kidding. Kidding..."

  "Ah la, Xiao Jian was fooled... how strange." Xu Xuan curiously watched as the first round of confrontation ended with Zhou Yun slightly in the lead. Xu Jian's combat strength ranking had already exceeded the newcomer list and was included in the Abnormal Ability Youth List. Although it was just a simple collision, Zhou Yun was actually slightly ahead, and it had to be said that he had some real ability.

  Xiao Yue Mei always had a good impression of Zhou Yun, and her trust in him was unwavering: "It's still early. Soon, 'cheap' brother will only have the privilege of being beaten."

  "Woe... it turns out that Xiao Jian is so unworthy in his sister-in-law's heart, what a pitiful feeling......" Xu Xuan pouted her small mouth to speak up for her older brother.

  Zhou Yun's progress was surprisingly rapid, but thinking of competing with Xu Jian, it seemed that she still lacked a bit of real combat experience. After all, true combat experience couldn't be enhanced through training alone.

  "Kid, your strength has increased in just a few days, and you've also become more mature." Xǔ Jiàn said indifferently.

  Zhou Yun had just flashed behind him in an instant, and indeed gave him a fright. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he might not have escaped the taste of being exploded by a chrysanthemum. However, Zhou Yun was able to gain the upper hand entirely because Xu Jian didn't use his special abilities. Being prepared to fight against someone who is unprepared makes it hard not to be at a disadvantage. But things were about to change.

  Xu Jian didn't dare to be careless, his abilities fully activated, his eyes fixed tightly on Zhou Yun: "Come again!"

  "Wah! " Receiving a continuous signal, Zhou Yun let out a strange cry and rushed up again.

  The so-called ignorant is fearless, the fearless is invincible. Zhou Yun, who wanted to show off in front of two beautiful women, used all his might to launch a crazy attack on Xu Jian. If Mu Feng were present, he would have discovered that the actual combat situation between the two was similar to what had happened before when Zhou Yun first fought Zeng Qiudao. The only difference was that the roles had been swapped, with Zhou Yun now being the attacker.

  The only difference is that drinking X cattle droplets seems to have endless energy. While shouting and hitting wildly, Xu Yun made Xu Xuan's eyes wide with fear, covering her ears in suffering. Xu Caiyue obviously had foresight, plugging the MP3 into her ear, making the world suddenly so quiet. Poor Xu Xuan begged bitterly, but Xu Caiyue refused to share.

  In the end, under great duress, Xu Xuan directly found a piece of adhesive tape and sealed Zhou Yun's mouth shut. There are policies from above and countermeasures from below. Xu Xuan didn't dare to complain to Xu Caiyue, but it was no problem to trouble Zhou Yun. Who let the young man shout nonstop, Xu Xuan had sought help in vain, so he could only take matters into his own hands and seal him off.

  At half past eight in the evening, Zhou Yun returned home exhausted. He was originally supposed to stay at school for night self-study, but unfortunately he forgot to inform his family. Afraid that his parents would worry, he had no choice but to ask Xu Xuan for leave.

  "Ouch..." Zhou Yun pushed open the large door with his hands, and his shoulders immediately felt a sharp pain: "Seriously, Jian Lao Da's hand is not merciful at all. Fortunately, I can hold on, otherwise it would be embarrassing."

  "Back already?" Just as he stepped into the house, Zhou Qingyang's voice came over.

  "Yeah." He replied, Zhou Yun asked while changing his shoes, "Dad, don't you need to watch the store with Mom today?"

  Originally I was going to go to the convenience store to say hello when no one was at home, but unexpectedly Dad was actually at home.

  Turning down the TV volume, Zhou Qingyang said leisurely, "Hmmm... This afternoon, Mom asked someone to help out, and I'm happy to be idle."

  This afternoon, an old classmate introduced a young girl to the store to help out. She said that there were some problems at home, so she came out to work under the pressure of her third year of high school. Mr. and Mrs. Zhou saw that the girl was pure and obedient, so they kept her to do odd jobs in the store.

  "Really? Business is good, huh! You've even hired workers." Zhou Yun plopped down in a chair, crossing his legs and saying nonchalantly, "Dad, when are we opening a branch?"

  If Dad's business gets bigger, I won't have to worry about my purse shrinking, and I can take Xu Xuan out for meals every day. How great is that!

  "Mind your own business, kid! Why bother with such trivial matters?" Zhou Qingyang said in a huff.

  Looking at Zhou Yun with a sly smile, it's clear that he's thinking of all sorts of bad things without even asking. Moreover, his small shop is not mainly for selling snacks.

  "I've worked hard enough! I plan to stay late at school tomorrow. Dad won't have any objections, right?" Seizing the opportunity, Zhou Yun quickly applied for a 'no overnight returns' rule. As long as his dad nodded in agreement, he could spend all day and night with Xu Xuanhu without worrying about getting scolded by his family.

  "Night self-study?" Zhou Qingyang questioned. His own child actually applied for night self-study, feeling a bit unrealistic. The mountains and rivers can change, but the nature is hard to move, and the transformation also needs a process.

  "Really!" Zhou Yun said shamelessly: "Good students all attend evening self-study sessions. I've always said I want to be a good student, after all."

  "Isn't it to pick up girls?" Zhou Qingyang asked suspiciously. This time he's gotten to the point.

  "Uh... cough... cough..." Zhou Yun rubbed his nose nervously: "Dad, trusting your son is something you should do."

  "Really......?" Mr. Zhou asked again, tapping his foot. Rubbing his nose... this kid is lying again... does your old man look like he can be easily fooled?

  "True! Pearls aren't even that real!" Zhou Yun argued with an unchanged expression. Xu Xuan used the evening self-study to make up for her own lessons, which couldn't be considered flirting.

  Still doesn't admit it... wait a minute... something seems off about this kid. Squinting his eyes, Zhou Qingyang slanted his gaze at Zhou Yun for a while, making him get goosebumps all over...
