However, instant comprehension isn’t so easy.
Bai Pu swung his sword continuously, trying to operate Gang Wind Mystical Arts, but while falling rapidly, it’s entirely different from on the flat ground; Blood River Fighting Qi couldn’t be output to the sword edge in ti!
The cara zood in on Bai Pu in the air, swinging his sword but accelerating downward helplessly, making his actions look rather comical.
Many spectators from Western Capital University showed mocking smiles; their team lost, so at least seeing "the culprit" Gangxin make a fool of himself salvaged so dignity.
Amid everyone’s anticipation, Bai Pu crashed into the water—
Boom!
A surge of air waves exploded, and Bai Pu, who fell into the water, soared skyward instantly! Beneath his feet, Blood River Fighting Qi erupted, transforming into a powerful Gang Wind propulsion.
The propulsion of this Gang Wind sent Bai Pu flying more than ten ters into the air.
As the montum seed to diminish, Bai Pu perford a stepping motion mid-air, yet another surge of blood-colored Gang Wind propelled him horizontally like a jet plane for another dozen ters.
"So that’s it... I was almost limited by my thinking. Blood River Fighting Qi can be directed not only to the sword edge but also beneath my feet, facilitating Gang Wind Mystical Arts, compressing the air to form strong counter-thrust."
Bai Pu felt that his Blood River Fighting Qi was almost depleted. He summoned his last bit of fighting qi to step once more, moving over ten ters in the air, gently landing on the Gold and Silver Platform.
At this mont, Bai Pu’s fighting qi was completely exhausted, his footing slightly unsteady.
Back to the outside, Wan Zhen’s eyes were wide open, as if he had seen a ghost.
He was sure Bai Pu had not demonstrated this secret of multiple aerial movent before.
Holy shit, did he comprehend a new ability just by fighting an aerial battle with ?
Wan Zhen would rather believe Bai Pu was hiding skills all along, which gave him a bit of courage to catch up.
Indeed, it was catching up.
As the top scorer in the 805 college entrance exam, one year senior to Bai Pu, Wan Zhen had adjusted his mindset; the gap between him and Bai Pu was significant, he is now playing the role of a pursuer.
After Bai Pu landed, Blood Spider hurried over to assist him.
"I’m alright," Bai Pu said, then looked toward Spirit Realm Will’s prompt ssage.
[Based on your Advanced Mystical Arts: Gang Wind, you’ve comprehended a new special effect: Gang Step.]
[Gang Step: Utilizing Gang Wind Mystical Arts to violently stomp the air or ground beneath you, forming powerful counter-thrust allowing multiple aerial movents. Initial activation of Gang Step consus 20 Blood River Fighting Qi, subsequent continuous activation increases consumption by 50%.]
"Continuous activation" refers to changing direction in the air before the toes touch the ground. Once toes land, support force from the ground is obtained, it’s no longer within the scope of Gang Step, aning subsequent activations won’t consu extra Blood River Fighting Qi.
Gang Step is a burst sprint; if activated in the air, instantaneous speed is approximately 1.5 tis Bai Pu’s Agility value; if on the ground, instantaneous speed reaches 2 tis Bai Pu’s Agility value.
Of course, the distance is short, only about ten ters. Considering the consumption, it can’t be used for long or dium-distance running.
"This skill... is quite useful for displacent during combat, but too bad it can’t be combined with Gang Wind Falling Blade, during displacent having Gang Wind Body Protection for immunity would be even better."
Bai Pu put away this greedy thought.
He felt that participating in the University Competition was the right choice, fighting talents from various domains allowed him to absorb nutrition and insights.
The Gang Step special effect is sowhat similar to Haotian’s [Frozen Mind] and Fenghuo’s [Soul Burning], all mystical arts special effects.
Comprehending mystical arts special effects signifies that the Awakened is already on the path of "self-created skills system."
When enough mystical arts special effects accumulate and form a systematic scale, the Awakened will beco a butterfly erged, mastering an art to the Master Level, gaining ultimate powerful boosts.
What Bai Pu didn’t know was that when he comprehended the Gang Step new special effect and moved horizontally from the sea back to the stands, the Wushan Divine Lady almost spat out a pearl while sipping her milk tea.
"This kid, comprehended a mystical arts special effect just like that... Can he truly reach the Master Level of mystical arts in his Mid-level Awakened stage? No, that’s impossible. Progressing to Master Level is vastly different; no Awakened has ever accomplished this."
...
"Boss Gangxin, did we... win?"
"Won." Xuan Pin replied with a smile.
Two ordinary-faced n rejoiced wildly.
"Holy shit, I’m the university competition champion now! And a main force of the champion team!"
The two ordinary-faced guys wore an expression of life fulfillnt.
Although they were slackers, at least in the latter stages, they positioned themselves correctly, justifying their muddling through to understanding.
Xuan Pin also smiled, eyes slightly moist. He and these two ordinary-faced guys had participated in previous university competitions, but stumbled at the regional qualifiers every ti.
Back then, there was no hope in sight.
In previous years Xuan Pin would still focus on college entrance exams, hoping potential new stars would join Xicheng University of Technology.
This clearly seed unlikely, why would potential newcors choose Xili Institute of Technology ranked beyond the top two hundred dostically?
Gradually, Xuan Pin’s heart turned cold; like last year’s college entrance exam with Wan Zhen, and this year with Bai Pu, he hadn’t been paying attention.
He only heard of a record-breaking top scorer, but Xuan Pin also held no hope, doubting any top scorer would choose his school.
Before the school year started, upon hearing Gangxin joined, though delighted, Xuan Pin could only sigh two words: "Too late..."
This year in his senior year, Xuan Pin had to look for guild signing contracts after graduation, while Gangxin, as a freshman this year, growing up seed impossible...
Until Bai Pu appeared before Xuan Pin, each ti reversing the tide with miraculous performances, constantly refreshing Xuan Pin’s perceptions.
"Others can say Jingxi and the others are just riding on coattails, only I have no right to say so. I am the luckiest one."
Thanks to Bai Pu, Xuan Pin demonstrated the strength of the Hero Profession Summoner at the national competition, especially displaying the profession equipnt’s "Necklace of the Spirit of Nature" for instant summon ability, several well-known tier-A prestigious teams began contacting him.
Prestigious teams, in the past Xuan Pin never had the courage to submit his resu, now they’re proactively reaching out.
This made Xuan Pin feel like he was dreaming.
Blood Spider stared blankly at Bai Pu.
Initially choosing Xili Institute of Technology, Blood Spider couldn’t quite say why, maybe a small act of rebellion, perhaps unwillingness with Bai Pu.
Yet truly following Bai Pu to the Flesh and Blood Plague: Abnormal World, and then to the Original Sin World, Blood Spider found her strength skyrocketing like a rocket!
The most obvious comparison is her distant cousin Lan Feng, where Blood Spider was slightly weaker than Lan Feng before, but now, she’s completely surpassed Lan Feng, defeating her one hundred tis out of one hundred encounters.
"Being with him... seems like all worries vanish." Blood Spider thought silently in her heart.
