X-Dragon Era

Chapter 124 Chapters 109-110: Clash of Strengths_3



Upon hearing Yi Luo Xiang's words, the examiner wiped the sweat off his forehead. It wasn't from exertion but from fright. If he had really killed the child, he wouldn't have been able to escape the consequences.

He let out a sigh of relief and nodded, "Indeed, in fact... Not to mention that he lasted a few seconds, but just the fact that he was able to exchange seven moves with me on an attack-to-attack basis is enough for him to advance to the next round."

Having said that, the examiner turned his head and shouted, "Alright, the second round of strength competition is now over. Everyone take a short break; we will soon enter the third and final round of the revival battle—the intelligence test!" After finishing his announcement, the examiner walked briskly to the resting area nearby and grabbed a water cup, gulping down the contents.

Meanwhile, all the students were still staring blankly at Xin Yun as he walked over at a leisurely pace, all of them wondering whether they could have dodged those swift and thunderous attacks if they had been in his place.

Both the boomerang axe and the boomerang are mid-to-long range weapons. The difference is that the boomerang is faster, its flight is light and graceful, with a bizarre trajectory, while the boomerang axe is relatively slower, its flight path is more level, but it is more domineering!

It possesses a destructive power that the boomerang cannot match at all; once struck by it, at best you'll end up with broken bones and torn muscles, at worst you'll be torn to pieces.

In comparison, the boomerang is like a war knife folded in half, while the boomerang axe is just a type of battle axe, also possessing immeasurable destructive power.

Moreover, compared to the boomerang, the greatest advantage of the boomerang axe lies in its versatility at long, mid, and close range, unlike the boomerang which sees a significant decrease in destructive power as the distance is closed; once the distance is within ten meters, its attacking power would be weakened to the extreme.

However, the boomerang axe is different, it can be used as a close-combat weapon without any issues, though with slightly less force. Besides that, just by creating a distance of one meter, it can exert its maximum power, and the closer the distance, the greater the threat.

If the distance is four or five meters, the power is at its greatest, making it difficult to dodge and possessing overwhelming destructive power.

Although everyone had Bronze-level strength, if they didn't summon their dragons, truly no one on the scene could guarantee that they would be able to withstand Xin Yun's attacks, especially when the distance was around ten meters.

In fact, the same is true for ordinary people too. Imagine someone holding an axe; the destruction it would cause when hurled is immense! Even an iron plate would probably get chopped open.

With everyone's eyes on him, Xin Yun frowned and rejoined Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying, dissatisfied with his own performance in the fight, even though the outcome was acceptable.

Sitting on a wooden chair at the edge of the arena, Xin Yun stared blankly at his right hand. The memories and sensations from his past life were still present in this hand, but now the energy couldn't keep up, and many techniques could not be executed properly or weren't executed well enough.

Yet, this wasn't what made Xin Yun most dissatisfied. What he could not accept was that his precise control over the boomerang axe was far too inadequate. It wasn't off by much, but it was critically so.

A true expert could, with the boomerang axe, bump the opponent's weapon off course, causing it to deviate from its path, while the boomerang axe could utilize the opponent's force to accelerate its spin, then strike back with even greater spinning force.

However, the necessary control is extremely delicate. The control over the trajectory and angle requires millimeter precision, and for Xin Yun, that was an impossible task.

In his past life, Xin Yun had mastered the spinning axe technique, but... Xin Yun put more emphasis on flashy tricks and dazzling techniques, neglecting the most fundamental aspect—basics!

This is like playing basketball. By only focusing on fancy maneuvers, slam-dunks, and showy shots, and neglecting the foundational skills such as dribbling, shooting form, and ball handling training.

With such a focus, Xin Yun's movements looked good and his skills were flashy, dazzling to behold. Yet when it came to actual use, they were difficult to execute with precision.

Taking basketball as an example again, although he could make shots, a real expert could hit the mark from a hundred paces away, every single time. Xin Yun's neglect of the basics meant he could no longer achieve such accuracy. Although the deviation was not great, his shots would only repeatedly miss the mark. Where was the shortfall? That's right... basics!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Creak..." Clenching his fist tightly, Xin Yun took a deep breath. He couldn't go on like this. With his current strength, once he recovered to the Diamond level, his boomerang axe might cope with Crystal-level experts, but it would only serve as a harassment against Purple Crystal-level masters, and Diamond-level masters would simply ignore Xin Yun's boomerang axe attacks altogether.

Advantages? Certainly... The memories and sensations from his past life gave Xin Yun the ability to rely on his right hand to exert formidable power, but that was not enough. Lacking a solid foundation in right-hand control meant there was no future. Given this, a seal was necessary.

Xin Yun spread his left hand open—it was a hand that had never wielded a flying axe before. Xin Yun knew that if he wanted to change everything, he had to start from scratch. From now on, he must practice throwing the boomerang axe with his left hand, ensuring a firm and solid foundation, then, with the memories of his past life, he would refine various techniques.

Only then would the boomerang axe truly unleash its power!

"Mm..." Nodding firmly, Xin Yun made a resolute decision. Starting now, unless absolutely necessary, his right hand would be completely sealed, forbidden from use. He would then dedicate himself to training his left hand in the boomerang axe, making sure to develop a rock-solid foundation. The mistakes of the last life could not be repeated in this one!
