X-Dragon Era-Chapter 373 - s 277-279 Strong Xin Yun_4

Of course, this change was temporary. Once both girls also broke through to the Gold tier, this gap would be instantly bridged. As for how powerful they would become in the future, that would depend on their new abilities and combat techniques.

After the battle ended, everyone had some understanding of Xin Yun’s new abilities. Relatively speaking, the increase in power was not the main aspect. What was most important was that, with new abilities and combat techniques, Xin Yun had become more elusive and more difficult to handle.

Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying were doing okay. Through this battle, their anticipation for breaking through to the Gold tier had intensified. If it were not for Ming Xuan’s match they were looking forward to tomorrow, these two girls would have definitely gone straight home to enter closed-door cultivation.

As for Ming Xuan, he felt extremely defeated and unwilling to accept what had happened. In a short period of time, he had been defeated by Xin Yun twice in a row, and in fact, Xin Yun had not even exerted his full strength when defeating him. Enjoy new stories from novelbuddy

Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying were still hopeful; at least they had something to look forward to. Once they broke through to the Gold tier, they would certainly make a showing. But it was different for Ming Xuan; he was already a Gold tier expert, yet he had fallen so low against Xin Yun, who had just reached the Gold tier. The stark contrast made it impossible for him not to feel defeated.

Ming Xuan had thought that after successfully getting the Peacock Dragon to display its plumage, he would never taste defeat again, but now it seemed there was always a higher mountain to climb, and he was still far from reaching the top.

After everything was over, everyone returned to their homes to sort through what they had gained from this battle, summarizing their experiences and lessons to adjust their strategies and tactical features.

Early the next morning, everyone got up early. Ming Xuan’s state clearly wasn’t great. After pondering the whole night, he had not made much headway—after all... Xin Yun and the others had developed their combat techniques through constant actual combat experience, having been tempered thousands of times. How could their weaknesses be so easily found?

Even though they could guess Ming Xuan’s mental state, Xin Yun really couldn’t help too much in this regard. The world is like this: no matter how strong you are, there is always someone stronger.

A successful person cannot get discouraged when encountering opponents stronger than themselves, nor can they become arrogant when facing weaker adversaries. What one can do is to defeat the vast majority of people; there will always be a small portion of people that one simply cannot overcome.

Everyone actually saw Ming Xuan’s despondence and couldn’t help at all. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to help; rather, they also didn’t know their own weaknesses. If they did, they would have simply corrected them. How could the problems still exist?

In fact, Ming Xuan was already standing at the threshold of mastery. Only by crossing this threshold could he truly enter the realm of masters. If he couldn’t get past this, facing real masters would mean certain defeat.

A true master’s competition is not about mere abilities and combat techniques. Taking Xin Yun and the others as examples, how powerful are combat techniques if they are not enough to defeat Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying? Once a battle begins, they are always in a state with no openings, making even the strongest combat techniques useless against them.

The duel between true masters is about patience, mindset, and comprehension. As for making mistakes, that is absolutely not allowed. No matter who it is, the moment a mistake occurs, they will inevitably suffer a devastating blow.

Not only must one not make mistakes, but in fact... even the slightest deficiency in any aspect is not acceptable. The opponent will instantly seize on this weakness and, through a series of attacks, greatly magnify it; under such a large disparity, the battle quickly ends. This is the nature of a duel between masters.

Now, Ming Xuan’s problem was that his strengths stood out, but his weaknesses were also very clear. Although the Five-Colored Body Light could reflect everything, once the attacks became too dense or when faced with a target that couldn’t be reflected, he would get tied down. At that moment, any attack could be enough to defeat him.

Having this weakness, in front of Xin Yun and the others, was the same as being defenseless. With a little effort, they could quickly defeat him. Unless Ming Xuan could cover this flaw, he would never be able to become a true master.

Strength is always an elusive concept. It’s not about who has the most power; it’s also not about whose attack is the fiercest. It is a comprehensive, indescribable concept.

Besides having a major flaw, Ming Xuan’s biggest problem was that his movements were not rigorous. Every move revealed significant openings, and he didn’t have abilities like Yi Luo’s Dimensional Shuttle or Yan Qingying’s Phantom Trace to hide himself. Thus, he easily revealed weaknesses, and once exposed, they would inevitably be seized by the opponent and result in a thorough defeat without even the power to strike back.

Xin Yun had repeated the same principles to Ming Xuan countless times, and Ming Xuan had fully understood. Now, talking more was useless; everything had to be comprehended by himself.

After breakfast, with Xin Yun and the two other girls accompanying him, Ming Xuan, with a grave expression, rushed to the academy’s combat arena. Today... it was Ming Xuan’s turn to face the leader of Red Class One!

When the four arrived at the combat arena, the crowd was almost entirely present. The stands were filled with people. The reason for such a crowd was partly... the impact of yesterday’s battle, and partly... everyone was very curious to know if Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying would come to today’s match.
