He had to control the variables, in case the instructor\'s mentoring attitude prevented the mode from triggering.
"Of course, I won\'t hold back." Dan smiled heartily, "Making you aware of the gap is my responsibility."
"Thank you, Instructor."
Bai E shook his wrists to ensure that certain key muscles remained agile and flexible.
Sometimes, being rigid wasn\'t necessarily a good thing.
Face to face, Dan was also curious to see how much this recruit, who dared to challenge him, had improved; letting Bai E strike first was to gauge his fundamentals.
With the most standard force-generating movement filled with maximum power, Bai E took the initiative and threw a punch.
"Bang."
Fist met palm, unmoving.
Your next journey awaits at empire
Dan, who caught Bai E\'s punch, slightly turned his face, looked past the fist to Bai E, more excited, "Not bad improvement, huh."
[Triggering the sparring mode...]
The hoped-for voice naturally rose in Bai E\'s mind, and he sighed silently—
The instructor was indeed strong, perhaps not as much as Blood God, but his strength was definitely not lacking.
His own force wasn\'t augmented with Overlimit Drive, but even relying on his native 14.7 physical prowess, it was considered the peak of an ordinary warrior. Plus, as his specialization level increased, those basic abilities mentioned earlier by Dan were invisibly enhanced. Yet the instructor who caught his punch showed no sign of weakness.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
Clearly, he still had strength to spare.
That\'s exactly what he needed!
Only from an opponent stronger than himself but not capable of instantly knocking him out could he continuously learn.
"Let\'s go again," Dan took the initiative to invite him.
"Whoosh!"
Bai E threw another phantom punch.
Just like the initial probing during their first training session, one full-force blow, followed by a quick punch.
"Slap!"
Dan, having firmly caught Bai E\'s fist again, gently pushed and said with a robust enthusiasm, "Good, you\'ve improved quite a bit."
Now confirmed that Bai E had a solid foundation, Dan clenched his fist, the exaggerated calluses on her joints displaying a fierce pressure.
"Be careful!" With a warning, Dan lunged at him.
Bai E\'s eyes flickered, and he instantly stepped forward half a step—intercepting!
Interrupting the opponent\'s attack before their force reached the ideal explosive peak meant that an action meant to release full power would ultimately only achieve 30 to 40 percent of its potential. This was a combat technique learned from the Wild Lion.
Dan\'s combat skills were rich, and sensing Bai E\'s intent, he changed his move instantly.
Everyone had their unique advantages. Apart from a resilient body, her strength was in her reflexes.
Her flexibility, typical of a female body, coupled with sensitive reactions, allowed her to switch from punch to elbow instantly, changing her force emission method in response to Bai E\'s intercept.
Bai E countered move for move. His reflex level of 12.7 might not yet match those instructors who had honed their physical qualities through countless battles and time.
But a versatile fighting style was his greatest advantage over Dan, learned from those underground fighters, focusing on varying and targeting the human body.
Without heritage, special training, or the experience of daily conniving with various schemers, Dan relied on real combat against other races and self-training to grow.
Defensive and offensive skills, flexible adaptation, those were her biggest trump cards.
Every part of the body is a weapon, ready to deliver maximum short-range driving force.
Fighting with Dan meant being cautious of her every move, as any seemingly insignificant motion could suddenly transform into a lethal assault.
Her style wasn\'t tricky; it was known for a tempestuous, overwhelming pressure.
If last night\'s tornado was known for its last-moment flurry of hitting, Dan\'s average output was nearly akin to that tornado\'s peak.
If it hadn\'t been for the massive surge in combat experience last night that urgently enhanced him, Bai E reckoned he would have been floored in a single exchange.
Even so, now he was mostly relying on his enhanced Guardian Place skills to double block and evasion capabilities, along with intercepting ability, to narrowly resist Dan\'s pressure.
But that\'s fine, his skills were rapidly improving.
[You are spending combat experience to observe and learn the opponent\'s fighting philosophy... (Cost: 20 points of experience/min)]
[You have spent 10 points of combat experience in learning, converting to 5 points of "Combat Mastery" experience. (Very small chance to awaken a special attribute.)]
...
"Such stable defense..." Dan, unleashing his power limitlessly, noticed the new recruit who was nearly watertight under his assault and his eyes couldn\'t help but flash with surprise.
During their first two trainings, he had judged this recruit\'s fighting talent as not impressive, skillwise rough despite strong physical power, but who would have thought that after just a few days on a mission, he\'d come back, so formidable?
If Dan hadn\'t been the one to initiate him personally, he would have doubted if this was the same person.
No matter what, the serious instructor facing a challenge from a rookie who recently was a novice couldn\'t help but take on a bit of a mentoring attitude, despite his correct stance.
This momentary distraction was seized by Bai E as an opportunity.
Waiting for the chance!
Seizing the opportunity, going all in!
Striking vital points!
Controlling the flow of blood vessels, striking at the muscle fascia junctions to cause spasms, a method of hitting that stiffens the affected muscle area.
