Chapter 258: Chapter 255: Flawed Spearmanship, Needs Improvement

Chu Zhengxiong and Mo Yanfeng walked into the Cultivation Field.

From a distance, they saw a large crowd of students gathered outside the Weapon Hall.

”Make way, make way!”

Chu Zhengxiong approached and swung his arms to the left and right.

He parted the students blocking the path.

When they turned around, ready to curse someone out,

they saw it was Chu Zhengxiong and all snapped their mouths shut in fright, voluntarily moving aside.

”Brother Chu?”

Wei Nan, Zhou Qi, and the others were watching from the outside.

When they saw Chu Zhengxiong approaching,

they all hurried to greet him.

”What’s the situation? I heard Lin Yi was fighting someone?” Chu Zhengxiong was already a tall and imposing figure.

Standing in front of the Weapon Hall, he was like a solid wall, blocking everyone’s view.

Wei Nan nodded. ”Not a fight, just a sparring match. He’s exchanging pointers on spear techniques with a third-year senior!”

”Oh?”

Chu Zhengxiong said nothing, his gaze shifting toward the inside.

He saw Lin Yi wielding a Black Gold Tiger Head Spear.

His spear technique was fierce and sharp as he charged straight at the student opposite him.

His spear moved like a ferocious tiger, every move filled with killing intent.

Each strike was unexpected and difficult to defend against.

His opponent, Xu Tai, was an inheritor of the Breaking Army Spear Technique.

However, he seemed to be struggling to parry Lin Yi’s sharp offensive.

Chu Zhengxiong stroked his chin, nodding from time to time.

’That kid Lin Yi’s talent has surprised me again. What’s this spear technique called? I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before.’

”It’s called Tiger Roar!”

Wei Nan quickly replied with a smile.

”Tiger Roar?” Chu Zhengxiong was a bit baffled.

”It’s a spear technique Lin Yi just created himself today. He just came up with the name on the spot!”

”Huh? A self-created spear technique?”

This time, both Chu Zhengxiong and Mo Yanfeng were dumbfounded.

They knew a thing or two about Lin Yi’s talent.

They knew that when it came to cultivation, he was like an unstoppable monster.

But they had never heard of him being able to create his own spear techniques and martial skills.

Inside the Weapon Hall, Lin Yi, longspear in hand, truly gave off the feeling of a tiger descending a mountain.

Each strike was so powerful that Xu Tai didn’t dare to block it head-on.

Even the one or two counterattacks Xu Tai managed to launch were easily neutralized by Lin Yi’s rich combat experience.

In just a few rounds, the outcome of the match was already clear.

Although Lin Yi’s self-created spear technique had only just reached Minor Success,

he had already achieved the state of unity between man and spear.

The man followed the spear, and the spear moved with his will...

More impressively, Lin Yi had even integrated his Body Technique with his spear technique.

He was like a slippery loach, unleashing lethal moves with every twist and turn, leaving Xu Tai unable to defend effectively.

As the inheritor of the Breaking Army Spear Technique,

Xu Tai naturally had skills of his own. Despite being forced into a continuous retreat by Lin Yi,

he was still able to counterattack amidst the danger.

His spear tore through the air, thrusting toward Lin Yi.

Lin Yi, who was about to strike himself, saw the situation turn against him and had no choice but to forcefully retract his spear and dodge to the side.

But the moment he dodged,

he swept his longspear out horizontally.

Faintly, a tiger’s roar could be heard within the sound of the spear slicing through the air.

BOOM—

A deafening crash erupted the moment the two longspears collided.

Unable to withstand the force, Xu Tai staggered back several steps.

And just as he regained his footing,

AWOO—

another tiger’s roar sounded.

In that instant, it was as if Xu Tai had seen a real tiger.

His expression changed drastically, and he stood frozen to the spot, completely stunned.

...until the spear tip, brimming with killing intent, stopped just before his chest.

The sparring match was over.

At that moment, the students outside were all utterly shocked.

None of them had expected Xu Tai, who was renowned for his spear skills, to lose to a freshman.

What they found even more unbelievable was that the Breaking Army Spear Technique had lost to the Tiger Roar Spear Technique...

”Thank you for the match, Senior.”

Lin Yi retracted his longspear and said with a light chuckle.

Though a hint of reluctance lingered in Xu Tai’s eyes, he still managed a smile.

”A loss is a loss. What’s the name of that spear technique of yours?”

”Tiger Roar!”

”Tiger Roar? That’s a good name. It really has the power of a Tiger Roar in the Forest!”

”Have you already mastered it to the great success stage?”

In Xu Tai’s eyes, to be able to use the technique to this degree,

if it wasn’t at the perfection stage, it had to be at least at the great success stage.

But Lin Yi just smiled and shook his head. ”Far from it. I’ve only just reached the entry-level!”

”Entry-level? How is that possible...”

Xu Tai’s face was filled with shock.

’A spear technique that’s only at the entry-level is already this powerful.’

’If it were trained to great success, or even perfection, wouldn’t that be...?’

”Is this a Top-grade Spear Technique?” Xu Tai realized something with a start.

Lin Yi smiled, but before he could speak,

the door to the Weapon Hall was pushed open, and Chu Zhengxiong strode in, laughing heartily. ”Good, HAHAHA... Not bad, not bad at all!”

”Your talent has really opened my eyes again, kid!”

Hearing this, Lin Yi and Xu Tai quickly turned to look.

”Brother Chu? Brother Mo?”

”Captain Chu...”

Apparently, nearly every student at Xingwu University knew Chu Zhengxiong.

The two men walked closer and said with a smile, ”I heard from Wei Nan that you created that spear technique yourself?”

Lin Yi nodded with a light chuckle.

”Yes, I just sort of inexplicably comprehended it!”

”Inexplicably?”

The moment he said that, Chu Zhengxiong, Mo Yanfeng, and Xu Tai all felt the urge to curse.

That single word, ”inexplicably,” was the epitome of Lin Yi’s humble-bragging.

”I’ve seen plenty of geniuses and plenty of people with extraordinary talent, but you’re the first one I’ve met who’s a talented genius that also humble-brags like this!”

”No wonder so many people say you’re a monster!”

”Today, I’m finally convinced. You’re not just a monster, you’re a monster who knows how to show off...”

After Chu Zhengxiong finished speaking with a laugh,

Lin Yi asked with a calm expression, ”By the way, Brother Chu, what brings you to the university today?”

”We’re here on business, of course. We were originally here to investigate a case, but then we heard you were sparring with someone, so we came over to have a look.”

After Chu Zhengxiong finished,

Lin Yi asked curiously, ”Investigate a case? What kind of case?”

”Right, Xu Tai, there’s something I need to ask you.”

”Do you know a girl named Liu Shuqin? She’s a second-year student.”

”Liu Shuqin?”

Xu Tai frowned and thought for a moment.

Then, he quickly said, ”Is she the student from the Old District who enrolled last year?”

”Yes. You know her?” Chu Zhengxiong asked hurriedly.

Xu Tai nodded. ”I know of her, but we’re not very close. She used to be in our spear technique club, but later she transferred to the Archer Association.”

”Alright. Tell me everything you know about her in detail.”

”Captain Chu, what about this Liu Shuqin? Did something happen to her?”

”Don’t ask questions. Just tell us what you know about her, including her social life, personality, and so on.”

Hearing this, Xu Tai nodded.

Chu Zhengxiong pulled him and started walking outside.

Just as they were about to leave, Chu Zhengxiong quickly turned back and said, ”Uh, Xiaoyi, I still have official business to attend to. You go on and practice. I’ll find you later!”

”Alright!”

Lin Yi nodded with a light smile.

Only after they had left did Wei Nan, Zhou Qi, and the others walk in.

”What’s going on? Why did Captain Chu take Xu Tai with him?”

Lin Yi shook his head. ”Not sure. It seems they’re investigating some case.”

Lin Yi had little interest in the affairs of the Demon Hunting Bureau.

Ever since sparring with Xu Tai,

he had gained a preliminary understanding of his own spear technique.

The Tiger Roar Spear Technique was incredibly fierce, each strike domineering and sharp.

Even someone like Xu Tai, who had trained with a spear since childhood, couldn’t last long against the Tiger Roar Spear Technique.

This was enough to show just how tyrannical and domineering the technique was.

’I have to keep practicing. It’s already this powerful at just Minor Success.’

’If I really train it to great success, or even perfection...’

...even Lin Yi couldn’t imagine what it would become.

As they walked out of the Weapon Hall, they found that the students outside had all dispersed.

However, as Lin Yi passed by them,

he could see that the students’ eyes now held a bit more fear and reverence for him.

They no longer looked at him as just some Martial Arts exam candidate from the Old District,

their gazes filled with disdain, contempt, and ridicule.

Now, there was mostly awe for Lin Yi...

”Don’t tell me there’s been another murder at our university?”

Wei Nan asked curiously after they left the Cultivation Field.

”A murder? Isn’t the public safety in the New District supposed to be better than in the Old District?

And we’ve been out at night; it seemed perfectly peaceful. How could there be a murder?” Sun Tao said, puzzled.

Wei Nan rolled his eyes. ”You say that like you’ve never seen the world.”

”Murders can happen even in the safest places!”

”Laws can restrain people, but they can’t restrain human nature!”

”Besides, what about crimes of passion? Those things are unavoidable!”

Sun Tao nodded. ”If that’s the case, when we join the Demon Hunting Bureau in the future, will we have to solve cases too?”

”Wouldn’t that make the Demon Hunting Bureau’s job the same as the Martial Arts Police Station?”

”Just going wherever there’s a case?”

Zhou Qi smiled. ”More or less. The Demon Hunting Bureau is like the Martial Arts Police Station, or rather, its superior department. Its main focus is Demon Hunting.”

”Wherever there’s a murder case, they’ll be there!”

While his friends discussed the murder case, Lin Yi’s mind was completely filled with the details of the Tiger Roar Spear Technique.

Although the spear technique was considered complete in its creation,

there were still some flaws and details that needed to be perfected.

The technique was fierce, but it also had many unaddressed openings.

Its wide, sweeping movements could leave him vulnerable to a lethal counterattack.

He had already noticed these during his sparring match with Xu Tai today.

He believed Xu Tai had also found some of the openings.

He had to patch up these weaknesses before it could be considered a perfect Top-grade Spear Technique.

”Lin Yi? Lin Yi...”

Lost in thought, Lin Yi had wandered far ahead on his own.

He only snapped back to his senses when he heard someone shouting from behind him.

He quickly turned to look back.

He saw that he was already more than ten meters ahead of Wei Nan, Zhou Qi, and the others.

”What’s up?”

”What are you thinking about? You completely spaced out. Didn’t we agree to go to the library?”

”Oh, right, the library!”

Lin Yi smiled, nodded, and hurried to join Wei Nan and the others as they headed toward the library.
