Chapter 232: Half a month of training takes time, the Bai family seems to have a conspiracy
clang--
Dang Dang Dang——
The sound of metal colliding came from the secret room. Jiang Ming was holding an unsharpened sword in his hand and practicing with Bai Wuhen. Jiang Ming's expression was extremely serious, while Bai Wuhen had a smile on his face, as if he didn't feel any pressure at all.
"Okay, let's go here first."
"......well."
Bai Wuhen once again put the sword against Jiang Ming's neck and immediately stopped. Seeing Jiang Ming's regretful look, he pointed out the loophole that Jiang Ming had just made.
"Brother Jiang Ming, you care too much about the weapon in your hand. Don't worry about it not hurting anyone. Just seize the opponent's weakness in the battle. Thinking before taking action is a taboo in battle!"
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Brother Wuhen, for letting me know."
After half a month of training, the two of them had already begun to call each other brothers.
Jiang Ming seemed to be thinking seriously on the surface, but he was actually smiling bitterly in his heart. How could he be worried about not hurting anyone?
On the contrary, he was worried that he would accidentally kill the top genius among the B-level psychics in front of him. The so-called thinking before acting was just that he had already anticipated Bai Wuhen's attack method and was thinking about how to block it without being exposed. In short, this was definitely his most cautious battle.
"In fact, you have a pretty good talent in combat."
Bai Wuchang saw Jiang Ming's helpless look with a frown on his brow, and spoke to comfort him at the right time.
"After all, I come from a family with supernatural powers. I have been training since I could walk. I have suffered a lot to achieve such success now. Brother Jiang Ming has only practiced for half a month and has mastered the swordsmanship of fighting with me for a hundred moves without being defeated. He is a natural talent. After all, I am still the strongest among the B-level supernatural users."
"Alas, even if that's the case, what can we do? Miss Bai Liuli is probably the same as Brother Wuhen, she has been training since she could walk, right? And she is the only eldest daughter of the Bai family, her strength is beyond my imagination..."
"Haha, the young lady is indeed proficient in all kinds of martial arts. In terms of talent, she is a rare genius in the Bai family. She even inherited the family's S-level supernatural power. Her appearance is also the most beautiful in the world. It can be said that..."
"Stop, stop, stop, Brother Wuhen, you're here again..."
Seeing Bai Wuchang talking nonstop, Jiang Ming quickly stopped him. In order to ensure rigor, Jiang Ming had naturally asked about Bai Liuli's appearance and other things during the past half month. But every time he talked about this, the other party acted proud and boastful. This was probably the eighth time in the past half month?
"Haha, sorry, sorry."
"Speaking of which...Brother Wuhen just mentioned the S-level supernatural power passed down in the family, right? What is that?"
"Well, since Brother Jiang Ming will definitely become the patriarch of my Bai family in the future, and he is going to bring the young lady back, this matter is also important to you, so I naturally cannot hide it from you."
Bai Wuhen pondered for a while but did not speak directly. Instead, he took the lead in saying something that had almost nothing to do with the question.
"There is no uniqueness in this world. If someone awakens a fire-attributed superpower, another person may also awaken it. There is only one way to distinguish them, and that is to compare the strengths of the superpowers. After the competition, the strongest one will be qualified to give his or her superpower a unique name, so that the world can know who is the strongest in this aspect."
"In other words... the Bai family's S-level inherited supernatural power is one of the supreme supernatural powers?"
"exactly!"
Bai Wuhen nodded slightly and continued.
"The Bai family's S-level inherited ability is a fire-attributed ability called Glazed True Fire!"
"Is it useful for anything? Or is it just excellent in fire?"
"Well, to be honest, even I have only heard of the name. How can an S-level ability be displayed in front of others so easily? Especially for a girl who ran away from her family."
Bai Wuhen sighed. Jiang Ming also asked Miss Bai Liuli why she wanted to escape from the family, but she never said a word. This made him alert because he could feel something was wrong from the enthusiastic look on her face every time she mentioned Bai Liuli. Being cautious would naturally do more good than harm.
"Tomorrow is the supernatural power college entrance examination. In the past half month, we have spent half of our time training your swordsmanship and supernatural power. Your swordsmanship is already no less than some mid-level B-level supernatural power users. As for supernatural power, there is no need for me to say more, right?"
"Brother Wuhen, don't worry. I will do my best to bring the young lady back."
Bai Wuhen nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, your friend Qian Lianxi is also a first-class genius, and the power she awakened is also extremely powerful, but there are some drawbacks... It is a bit restrictive for him."
Then, he sighed helplessly again.
"Ah, it's true that the waves behind push the waves ahead. Even though I am hailed as a genius in the Bai family, it's probably only a matter of time before I'm surpassed by the two of you, right?"
"Brother Wuhen, you are being too polite. The two of us are just rookies who have been training for half a month. How can we be compared with you, brother Wuhen? I can see from the long period of time that you have been holding back against me, brother Wuhen. To be honest, I am afraid that the two of us combined are not a match for you in your serious state, right?"
"Ha ha!"
Bai Wuchang couldn't help but laugh out loud. He really liked Jiang Ming more and more. Humility was part of it, and high emotional intelligence was another part. The most important thing was that he also liked the tone of his voice.
"Okay, take a good rest today and keep yourself in the best condition so that you can cope with tomorrow's supernatural college entrance examination. As long as you succeed, you can have whatever you want. Even if it's a virgin female college student, I'm afraid there will be many people who want to please you."
Bai Wuhen patted Jiang Ming's shoulder meaningfully and turned to leave. The latter did not say much, but silently returned to the residence prepared for him by the Bai family.
"According to the information available now... the reason why the Bai family chose to entrust this commission to me is not only because of my own strength, but also because of the blood connection between the Bai family. Once Miss Bai Liuli senses this, she will stay away and even threaten to die. She doesn't want to return to the family..."
This was Bai Wuhen's explanation to Jiang Ming, but it made him unable to help but think about it seriously.
"Is there such a thing as blood connection in this world?"
Jiang Ming took out a locator-like mechanical device from his pocket without changing his expression and looked at it carefully.
'The area range in the secret realm of the supernatural college entrance examination is mainly divided into the outer circle, the middle circle, the inner circle and the core area. The outer circle is generally inhabited by ordinary beasts or beasts eroded by Honkai energy. The middle circle will have common lower-level Honkai beasts, such as the assault-level, chariot-level and even knight-level Honkai beasts. The inner circle is more dangerous, mainly composed of alien Honkai beasts, warlord-level and even temple-level Honkai beasts. As for the core area... basically no one dares to go deep, even A-level supernaturals are the same. As for the S-level... they are basically old guys who cherish their lives, and no one knows where they are hiding. '
"According to the clues provided by the Bai family, Bai Liuli is bound to appear in the inner area, so my first priority is naturally to enter the inner area..."
Jiang Ming was silently thinking about the layout. If it was just about entering the inner area, it would naturally be very simple for him, and it could even be said to be a piece of cake. But now the most important thing was still his own Meiyi.
Since the disturbance of imaginary numbers has placed herself in Shenzhou, Mei is probably in the Far East. Fortunately, the location of the secret realm is eternal and unchanging. If she is lucky... Mei also goes to the secret realm to take the college entrance examination, which will save herself the greatest trouble.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming took out the Honkai energy crystal that Bai Wuhen gave him and absorbed it.
Since the college entrance examination for supernatural powers has not yet begun, my joining the Bai family is only in name only. The elders from other families can only wait until I bring back Bai Liuli, the eldest daughter of the Bai family.
Therefore, he could not get the "salary" from the Bai family now, which made him feel a little unhappy - since they originally asked him to bring back Bai Liuli, knowing that the other party had inherited the family's S-level supernatural powers, it would be fine if they didn't give him any cards to save his life, but they didn't even give him the foundation to make himself stronger. Did they want him to be cannon fodder?
Fortunately, Bai Wuhen waved his hand and gave him dozens of Honkai Energy Crystals, all the size of glasses. He wanted to refuse, but he said that he still needed to bring back the young lady and that he needed enough resources to ensure everything was safe, so he rejected it as an investment. He had no choice but to "reluctantly" accept it.
But when he calmed down and looked at the Honkai energy crystal in his hand, different thoughts came to his mind.
"The Bai family...Bai Wuhen...I see..."
Jiang Ming chuckled.
Whether in this world or in the ordinary world, how many wealthy people dare to say that the source of their money is absolutely fair and selfless? Corruption and dissatisfaction, these evil thoughts are full of people's hearts.
What’s more, the Bai family is a top-notch family?
In Jiang Ming's opinion, the reason why the Bai family did not give him any benefits was because they had already given the benefits that should have been given to him to Bai Wuhen, and then asked Bai Wuhen to pass them on to him.
What is the use of this? It's simple.
If the Honkai Energy Crystal was given to me in the name of the Bai family, I might think it was justified.
But if he doesn't give it to me, I will definitely feel dissatisfied.
At this time, Bai Wuhen intervened at the right time and handed over dozens of Honkai energy crystals to himself, calling it an investment to increase his foundation for bringing back the young lady, but in fact he just wanted him to make him owe him a favor.
After all, the college entrance examination for supernatural powers is approaching, and without sufficient foundation one cannot achieve better results, but Bai Wuhen gave it to him. If it were someone else, they would probably have been grateful long ago.
But Jiang Ming has seen everything. His vision and state of mind are much higher than anyone else in this world. How could he be fooled by such tricks?
Since the other party is not a good person, he will definitely not tell the truth. When I find Miss Bai Liuli, I will ask her in person...
After thinking so much, Jiang Ming had already absorbed and refined all the Honkai energy in dozens of Honkai energy crystals, and the Honkai energy he could operate had reached 800HW.
To be honest, even some top-notch A-class psychics cannot reach 800HW. If they absorb too much, they will be corroded and die due to excessive Honkai energy.
The reason why Bai Wuhen gave so many Honkai Energy Crystals to himself was, firstly, of course, to increase his own foundation, and secondly, Honkai Energy Crystals could also be used as currency.
This is similar to the spirit stones or elemental stones in the world of immortal cultivation, which are the absolute hard currency among those with special abilities. As long as there are enough crystals of Honkai energy, it can be exchanged for anything in the world, including women and slaves.
The Honkai event occurred all over the world, and naturally many countries were destroyed. The survivors in the countries were either reduced to slaves or playthings after being discovered by powerful psychics.
But Jiang Ming had no intention of buying anything. With his strength, he could naturally get anything in the world. He absorbed all the Honkai energy crystals and even barely reached the level where he could use the rules of the universe. His expectations for the supernatural college entrance examination also rose slightly...
