Chapter 53 Ji Juechen's Swordsmanship
"This kid seems to have some talent. Teacher Xuan seems to have a good eye. It looks like we'll be taking this little guy with us on our training trip in a few days."
Wang Shaojie shook his head slightly. He had obviously just returned and would probably be sent out again. He wondered who would lead the team to protect this new junior this time.
Orange and Coco exchanged a glance, then nodded in unison. Their actions left Su Yu, who was standing to the side, completely bewildered, unable to understand what they were planning to do.
The second half of today's class was entirely devoted to Xuan Ziwen explaining Su Yu's soul tool.
Although the structure of this soul tool is not entirely made in the style of Tang Sect hidden weapons, Su Yu made some modifications. In addition, the materials used are ordinary metals with limited destructive power. Therefore, even though it is a level three soul tool, its destructive power is still only level two.
"Ju Zi, Ke Ke, Wang Shaojie, you guys take Luo Yu on a training trip the day after tomorrow. Wang Shaojie will lead the team this time. Zi Mu, you stay here and reflect on this. If you don't work harder, even Su Yu will catch up with you. Luo Yu is still so young. You'd better spend the next few days in the lab reflecting on this!"
After saying this, Xuan Ziwen left the laboratory. Everyone in the laboratory cheered, but Zi Mu was the only one who lay on the table with a face full of grief.
Wang Shaojie patted Zimu on the shoulder with a gloating expression and said, "Zimu, don't worry. We'll come back to see you after we've eaten and drunk our fill. You should focus on your studies."
"Yes, yes, Wang Shaojie is right. Zimu, we'll go scout ahead for you. After all, training outside is so tough. Teacher Xuan is doing this for your own good. Good luck!"
Keke gave Zimu an encouraging look, then packed her things and skipped away.
As for Ju Zi, she glanced lazily at Zi Mu, then complained that she was hungry and wanted to go eat. At the same time, without saying a word, she grabbed Su Yu and dragged him away. With a free cook right there, why should she cook for herself?
With Orange's foodie mentality, which is all she thinks about, how could she possibly cook properly after having Su Yu around?
In the end, only Zi Mu remained in the entire laboratory. Looking at Zi Mu's dejected appearance, Su Yu couldn't help but recall a few lines from a song by Lan Xing.
Snowflakes fluttered down, the north wind howled, and the world was shrouded in a vast expanse of white...
Good luck, sir. Aside from the fight, there's nothing we can do to help you with this. Good luck!
The next day.
Su Yu got up very early and arrived at the meeting point early, but this time, he saw an acquaintance he was forced to meet: Ji Juechen.
"Uh... wait, holy crap, Ji Juechen?!"
Looking at Ji Juechen holding the meteorite iron sword, Su Yu felt an instinctive resistance for some reason. It seemed that ever since he met this guy, he had encountered a lot of bad luck.
A gang committed a crime; breakfast was stolen; a soul-guided device exploded...
Don't tell me you're here to cause trouble again.
Su Yu turned to leave, but after only a few steps, Ji Juechen called out to him, "Luo Yu, where are you going?"
Holy crap, you have to ask that? Dude, don't come any closer!
As soon as Ji Juechen spoke, Su Yu started running. If this guy dragged him along to be his sparring partner again, he'd probably really be done for here.
I haven't yet traveled all over the beautiful lands of the Douluo World, I haven't yet spent all my family's money, I still...
Holy crap, how did you manage to catch up?
Hmm, why are my feet dangling in the air?
Staring at his legs flailing in the air, Su Yu was bewildered...
"Oh, this..."
Ji Juechen, standing behind him, effortlessly lifted Su Yu into the air. Su Yu gave up struggling and was then brought to Ji Juechen's face.
Their eyes met, and Su Yu just wanted to slap this guy to death. If he had a fourth-ring cultivation level, he would have killed him by now...
"Where are you planning to go?" After all, it's rare to find such a sparring partner. If something happens to Su Yu, given Ji Juechen's sword fanatic nature, he'll probably go crazy.
Su Yu said irritably, "Uncle, can you put me down first?"
Being lifted up in the air like a chick, it's probably not a pleasant experience for anyone.
Ji Juechen was slightly taken aback, then released his grip and put Su Yu down.
Where are you planning to go?
Ji Juechen remained cold and aloof, clearly indicating that dealing with people had always been his Achilles' heel.
"Uncle, please sit down first."
Su Yu dusted himself off, found a clean step to sit on, and said, "Teacher Xuan sent us out for training this time, and it'll probably be a few days before we're back. By the way, Brother Ji, where are you planning to go?"
Although Ji Juechen is considered middle-aged, especially when he was carrying Su Yu, he was already dealing with child traffickers. After all, Su Yu is only thirteen years old, while Ji Juechen is already twenty-three.
"Me?" Ji Juechen pondered for a moment, "I hope I can find another opponent like you in this academy."
A sword fanatic is a sword fanatic, but for Su Yu, he is not a pure sword cultivator, nor is he like Ji Juechen, who pursued the ultimate sword path his whole life.
Listening to Ji Juechen's words, Su Yu felt somewhat sad. The path he had pursued and been so persistent in his life was not recognized by this world. If Ji Juechen knew that there was no sword path in Douluo Continent or even Douluo God Realm, what kind of blow would he suffer?
Looking at the longsword in Ji Juechen's hand, which resembled a fire poker, Su Yu asked, "Brother Ji, what do you think the Way of the Sword is?"
"Kendo? What is Kendo...?"
Swordsmanship was clearly an unfamiliar term to Ji Juechen, and even a world he had never touched before.
Su Yu thought for a moment, recalling many fantasy novels he had read before. Since he didn't know if they were true or false, he casually asked, "The way of the sword is actually more about sword intent. What is sword intent? Your sword intent should be your own mindset, whether it is unstoppable, invincible, or domineering and supreme?"
"The sublimation of sword intent is the sublimation of yourself. If sword intent has form, then it is a sword soul; if sword intent has spirit, then you are a sword god!"
In Su Yu's view, the ultimate swordsmanship is never about sweeping across the world, but about having an invincible mindset that belongs to oneself: I am the sword, I am the embodiment of invincibility!
If I had my sword, I could slay gods above and cut down enemies below!
If I part from my sword, I can become the sword and my heart can become my heart!
After Su Yu finished speaking, he left. Ji Juechen listened to Su Yu's words and fell into deep thought. He was pursuing a breakthrough and seeking his own path.
After leaving this place, Su Yu also found the others. This training was obviously to give them a deeper understanding of the use of soul tools.
Three figures stood together at the agreed spot. Wang Shaojie was still dressed in a golden nobleman's outfit, while Ju Zi was wearing a blue outfit.
Already somewhat naive, she looked even more innocent and adorable in her blue outfit. Su Yu felt that anyone could easily charm her; her harmless appearance made Su Yu feel inferior.
Sister, if you went to be the prey, I guarantee you could catch a whole bunch of people through entrapment...
Keke had changed into a pale yellow outfit. From a distance, she still looked quite petite, but Su Yu had a different understanding of the strength of this seemingly fierce little tiger. Of course, that was because Keke had broken Su Yu's metal cannon barrel with her bare hands just two days after she arrived...
Petite and adorable Coco looked especially cute today. Although she didn't have the same dazed look as Orange, her lively and energetic youthful spirit was undeniable.
Youth is wonderful, isn't it? Just like back when I was on Earth, fooling around and playing with my friends...
Upon seeing Su Yu, the three of them looked rather strange, as they had personally witnessed Ji Juechen lifting Su Yu into the air.
Looking at Su Yu's unharmed appearance, Ju Zi scolded him angrily, "Wang Shaojie, look what you've done! It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, Junior Brother Luo Yu wouldn't have been bullied by Ji Juechen!"
Wang Shaojie felt somewhat helpless, but he couldn't refute it. In his heart, he couldn't help but complain: "You didn't say this before, and now I'm the scapegoat. Is there no law anymore?"
Keke stepped forward, grabbed Su Yu's shoulder, and asked with concern, "Luo Yu, are you alright? Did that madman Ji Juechen hurt you?"
With a helpless shrug, Su Yu spread his hands and said, "It's nothing, I just got caught. A five-ring Soul King wouldn't bother with a two-ring Great Soul Master like me."
"Are you sure you're alright? If you're not, don't force yourself. If you can't go, I'll explain the situation to Teacher Xuan." Ju Zi let go of Wang Shaojie's clothes and looked at Su Yu as she spoke.
"It's alright, it's alright, let's go."
Looking at Wang Shaojie's helpless expression, Su Yu sighed leisurely. Little did he know that the prettier the girl, the less you could reason with her, because she might not listen to what you said.
"Are you sure you're alright?" Keke reached out her little hand and patted Su Yu's back.
"puff……"
Su Yu almost choked on his breath from the sudden slap. Ke Ke's innate superhuman strength was no joke. Luckily, she didn't use her full strength, otherwise Su Yu would have been seriously injured or at least slightly injured.
"Cough cough cough, Senior Keke, are you trying to murder your junior?"
He rubbed his back, which looked painfully sore from the slap Keke had given him. He thought Keke would comfort him, but to his surprise, Keke just smiled and nodded.
"Since you're alright, it means you're really okay. It seems we don't need to worry about you anymore. Come on, this senior here grants you permission to join the team."
Seeing Keke's mature demeanor, Ju Zi and Wang Shaojie laughed. Su Yu could only grimace and touch his wound as he followed them to the training ground.
