In the arena, Teacher Leng Yue donned a full set of equipment. Beside a flowing waterfall, she stood in the Ten Thousand Flower Garden, clad in silver armor and a crown, a glowing spirit sword in hand. Petals swirled in the wind, painting a picture of a heroic woman.
Her heroic visage and captivating beauty, combined with the handsome, dashing armor, instantly stunned the students outside.
Especially in this setting, Leng Yue exuded the aura of an ancient female general.
All the students watched the scene in astonishment. None of them had expected Teacher Leng Yue to be so captivating once she was equipped, making it impossible for them to tear their eyes away.
They were all mesmerized by Leng Yue's demeanor. Even the female students watched with admiration.
"Teacher Leng Yue is not only powerful, but with this equipment, I feel completely awestruck. If Teacher Leng Yue were a man, I'd be the first to fall for her."
"I want to learn from Teacher Leng Yue, but I can't emulate her temperament."
"Teacher Leng Yue's outfit is both fierce and handsome."
"Remember to make a copy for me later, or I'll report you."
"Me too, me too."
The entire class, regardless of gender, was smitten with Leng Yue. This was also why some women garnered so many fans.
It also explained why some people, disregarding academy rules, were willing to seek justice for the Wei Ning and Wei Yu sisters.
Because in their eyes, they were defending their goddess, and were willing to accept punishment.
The mere thought of the image that captivated them in their minds made them willing to go to any lengths.
In the world, there are always those who can instantly make someone willing to risk their life for another.
Perhaps it's unrequited, and the person they're doing it for will never know, but as long as they feel it's worth it.
Perhaps it's "brainless," or perhaps others call them "foolish."
But without their "brainlessness" and "foolishness," how could one differentiate from those who aren't "brainless" or "foolish"?
Leng Yue's appearance also briefly amazed Zhou Yan, but he quickly regained his composure.
The women in his territory, such as Diao Chan, Zhen Mi, and Sun Shangxiang, were all exceptionally beautiful. Any one of them, when equipped, would be no less impressive than Leng Yue. The definition of 'beauty' only distinguishes between different personalities and temperaments.
Well, and also physical proportions.
Some were delicate to hold, some too large to span with two hands, and others...
"Kid, you're not even wearing any equipment. Do you think I'll lose?"
Leng Yue's long eyelashes curved. Her eyelashes and eyes were very different from others', making them appear exceptionally spirited.
Seeing the slightly angered Leng Yue, Zhou Yan quickly donned a dark gold set and took out a diamond-level spear, saying, "How could I? I just wasn't ready yet."
Hearing this, Leng Yue's delicate brows did not relax. Instead, she admonished, "What did I tell you? A person must always maintain a sense of vigilance. If your enemy attacks you, they won't wait for you to be ready.
"You must remember, never let down your guard in any battle, and never be dismissive. You standing before me now makes you my opponent. I won't show you any mercy just because you're young or your realm is weak. I also need you to remember, no matter who stands before you, you must find a way to defeat them."
Leng Yue's words truly hit Zhou Yan like a thunderclap. Teacher Leng Yue was teaching them battle earnestly, while he had been acting so nonchalantly. He indeed felt something was wrong.
Thus, Zhou Yan also became serious and said to Leng Yue, "Teacher, I've remembered."
Respecting a teacher means not disappointing her. Showing your strength and letting them see your capabilities is the best repayment to a teacher.
Zhou Yan held his spear, cupped his hands towards Leng Yue, and said, "Teacher Leng Yue, please guide me."
"Show me your true skills. Teacher won't hold back."
Although Leng Yue said this, she wouldn't use her full strength from the start. However, she didn't underestimate Zhou Yan at all. She knew that someone like Zhou Yan would undoubtedly have many unexpected tricks up his sleeve. As a practical combat teacher, she wouldn't make such a basic mistake.
Zhou Yan immediately attacked. He stomped the ground, and his body surged forward rapidly. His spear was raised, and the "Overlord Spear Technique" was unleashed.
Leng Yue's observation skills were incredibly sharp. From Zhou Yan's attacking posture, stance, movements, and the surging energy around him, she had already judged that this move was very powerful.
She did not choose to confront him head-on. She felt that she was not his match in terms of pure strength.
With her rich combat experience, Leng Yue would not fight an opponent using her weaknesses. She would flexibly utilize her strengths and employ her agile techniques.
The moment Zhou Yan attacked, her body flashed. It was as if she had already known where Zhou Yan intended to strike. With her sword-wielding hand, Leng Yue launched a counter-attack, forcing Zhou Yan to parry.
"Clang!"
Leng Yue's sword met Zhou Yan's spear. This truly surprised Zhou Yan. Teacher Leng Yue was indeed a teacher; her eyesight and skill left him deeply impressed.
He had previously believed that his high attributes would allow him to defeat opponents far superior to him. But at this moment, he realized he still had much to learn, especially in judgment and the technique of turning the tables. These were worth his time to study and delve into.
When they learned skills and techniques, they could indeed acquire them through mere usage. However, if these skills were not applied reasonably, they would become useless.
Zhou Yan had learned many skills, and each of them was of S-rank or higher. But if asked if he had mastered any of them to the point of perfection, the answer was none.
Because his own strength was formidable, and he could obtain a continuous stream of attribute points from the [Inheritance Temple]. But when it came to combat techniques and practical experience, he didn't have much.
This was because his opponents had always been crushed outright, defeated directly by his immense attributes and numerous skills.
Encountering someone with extensive combat experience and profound combat techniques like Leng Yue was like having strength but being unable to land a solid blow.
Although Leng Yue's striking power wasn't very strong, Zhou Yan felt that this force was no less than his own.
This kind of technique was truly profound, and Zhou Yan desperately wanted to learn and study it. He began to fight with his utmost concentration.
