Everyone's Suppressing Ghosts: Others Contract Divine Weapons, I Contract Blank Paper

Chapter 50: A Sparring Match Between Three Greats! Shattered Wind Blade vs. Gathering Words!

The following morning.

Jianggui Training Department has opened a practice area for students at the A level and above.

The practice area is located at the deepest part of the training field.

There are three layers of guardrails on the outside.

There is a transparent barrier inside.

Above the barrier, a row of real-time judgment lights hangs.

[Damage Assessment.]

[Life Lamp Lock Check.]

[Overload detection for the talisman.]

[Winner or loser determined.]

Outside the sparring area, all eight senior brothers and sisters had arrived.

Wang Peiwen stood at the very front of the observation area.

He was still holding that tablet.

He has already put yesterday's double-lock array records into a separate folder.

The file name is:

[Observe the array of white paper lamps.]

In addition to the eight participants in the special training camp, the practical training department also opened up fifty observation slots.

Fifty students stood in the outer circle.

No one dared to speak loudly.

Because one of the two people who entered the sparring area today was Xu Du.

The other one is Lu Jialan.

The third year is the strongest.

Grade A Shattering Wind Blade.

In the center of the sparring area, Lu Jialan was already standing there.

He held the long spear-like wind-shattering blade at an angle in his hand.

The blade is very thin.

The wind blew through the sparring area; the gun didn't move, but the blade trembled slightly.

Xu Du walked into the sparring area.

An old coat.

Amulet box.

A white paper lantern, meant to guide the soul, hangs from the waist.

Outside the barrier, several observing students whispered, "Special A+ against A-grade Shattering Wind Blade."

"That's not how it works, Lu Jialan is a junior."

"Shattering Wind Blade single-target burst damage, Jiang Gui is in the top tier of third-year students."

"Xu Du was just promoted to a special A+ yesterday."

"That's even more outrageous, a freshman sparring with the strongest junior."

Teacher Chen stood in front of the control panel, and the tablet had already connected to the data in the discussion area.

Lin Qingzhu walked to the edge of the barrier.

"rule."

Above the sparring area, the large screen lit up.

[In sparring areas for Rank A and above, the protective barrier will be activated at all times.]

[Allow the suppressing object to release its full power.]

[Pursuing the Life Lamp is prohibited.]

[Secondary harm must be prevented.]

The outcome will be determined by the barrier.

Lin Qingzhu looked at the two of them.

"clear?"

Lu Jialan: "Understood."

Xu Du: "Mm."

Lin Qingzhu retreated to the control panel.

"start."

The moment the words fell, Lu Jialan moved.

It's not 沖.

It disappeared.

In the observation area, several students didn't even see how he took his first step.

The spear-shaped wind-shattering blade drew an extremely thin line of wind in mid-air.

The next moment, Lu Jialan appeared behind Xu Du.

The Shattering Wind Blade pierced straight at Xu Du's shoulder.

There was no intent to kill.

But it's extremely fast.

Xu Du did not turn back.

A piece of white paper flew up automatically from the edge of the talisman box.

There were no words on the paper.

It was just a blank sheet of paper.

But it happened to be blocking the shattering wind blades.

laugh.

A tear was pierced in the white paper.

The shattering wind blades were also deflected by half an inch.

Lu Jialan holstered her gun and stepped back.

The first round is over.

The data above the sparring area lights up.

[Shattering Wind Blade dash speed: A-level standard upper limit.]

[White paper protection reaction: Effective.]

Someone in the observation area gasped softly.

He didn't turn around.

"Did the blank sheet of paper block it itself?"

"It's not spontaneous combustion without a flame; it's just a normal protective reaction."

Wang Peiwen remained silent.

He wrote a line on the tablet.

[Passive protection against airborne attacks; reaction speed comparable to an A-level advance.]

Lu Jialan didn't give Xu Du much time.

In the second round, he changed his angle.

Straight ahead.

left.

behind.

The three advances almost formed a straight line.

The wind lines of the Shattered Wind Blade cut towards Xu Du from three directions.

Xu Du stood still.

He didn't even raise his hand once.

White paper flew up from the side of him one after another.

Five.

Seven.

Ten.

Each time, it's always more, never less.

There was no counterattack.

Only block.

The shattering wind blade pierced through the outermost layer of white paper.

Add the second layer.

The wind gust brushed past Xu Du's sleeve, only to be deflected by the third sheet of white paper.

Each time the shattering wind blade retracts, the position of the white paper beside Xu Du will be slightly adjusted by half an inch.

Not obvious.

But Wang Peiwen saw it.

He looked down and wrote another line on the tablet.

The protective structure is being adjusted.

After making three consecutive charges, Lu Jialan stopped on her own.

Shattering wind blades hung at his sides.

He looked at Xu Du.

"When do you plan to retaliate?"

Xu Du looked at him.

"Watch."

Lu Jialan's eyes flickered slightly.

In the crowd, someone whispered, "He hasn't written anything yet."

"Is Xu Du testing the speed at which the wind blades shatter?"

"Still don't want to make the first move?"

"Look at Lu Jialan, he's getting serious."

Lu Jialan gripped the Shattering Wind Blade tightly in her right hand.

The atmosphere in the sparring area suddenly changed.

The previously scattered air began to converge towards the edge of the Shattered Wind Blade.

Behind Lu Jialan, a golden-red life lamp appeared.

Sunlight lamp.

The most reliable life lamp for mainstream ghost hunters.

The golden-red lights and the wind lines on the broken wind blades overlapped.

Teacher Chen immediately looked up.

"Yang lamp resonance".

The data on the large screen is fluctuating.

[The intensity of the wind blade resonance has increased.]

[Single-target dash damage assessment: High-level A-rank.]

The barrier's protection level has been automatically increased.

Lin Qingzhu did not call a halt.

The sparring area allows for full-power release.

As long as you don't pursue the Life Lamp.

Lu Jialan raised the Shattered Wind Blade.

The long spear-like blade trembled.

A line of golden-red wind blades condensed from the tip of the spear.

Unlike the previous attempts.

This strike was even faster.

It is also heavier.

Lu Jialan did not go around to the back.

He charged forward from the front.

The wind blade aimed directly at Xu Du, who was standing three feet away from him.

White paper flew up automatically around Xu Du.

First floor.

The second layer.

The third layer.

The golden-red wind blade pierced through the first layer of white paper.

The second layer of white paper was cut open.

The third layer of white paper was pressed inwards.

Above the sparring area, a red judgment light suddenly lit up.

[Front-side protection is about to be breached.]

[Risk of lateral impact to the life lamp.]

[Lethality threat assessment: Established.]

This strike landed in the sparring area, determining the winner.

The barrier will stop the last inch.

However, for the White Paper Soul-Guiding Lamp, the lateral impact of the life lamp has already been established.

The moment those words lit up.

The white paper soul-guiding lamp at Xu Du's waist lit up on its own.

There is no fire.

There is no oil.

The bluish-white light seeped through the lamp paper.

The charred edge of the lamp body was illuminated as a thin line.

The talisman box shook.

Whoosh—

The white paper flew out automatically.

Not ten.

Not fifty.

One hundred sheets of white paper were simultaneously raised in front of Xu Du.

The observation area fell silent instantly.

"Spontaneous combustion without fire".

"The lights come on first again."

"The barrier only lights up when it detects a fatal threat?"

Wang Peiwen stared at the large screen.

He didn't look at the forum.

He didn't even look at the people next to him.

Only look at that line of judgment.

[Lethality threat assessment: Established.]

This is not Xu Du deliberately showing off his skills.

According to the sparring area's assessment, Lu Jialan's attack was enough to penetrate Xu Du's three layers of white paper protection.

The white paper lantern moved before people did.

Xu Du raised his hand.

The pale blue light clung to his sleeve and floated upwards.

His fingertips landed on the first blank sheet of paper.

A new character is formed.

Gather.

One hundred sheets of white paper trembled simultaneously.

The character "聚" (ju, meaning "gather") appears on every sheet of paper.

The next instant, all the white paper folded together in the middle.

One sheet at a time.

One layer on top of another.

The originally thin white paper was transformed into a solid paper shield under the bluish-white light.

The paper shield is very white.

There is no pattern.

Only in the very center is there a huge character "聚" (ju, meaning "gather").

Lu Jialan's golden-red wind blade collided with the paper shield.

boom!

The barrier around the sparring area trembled violently.

The fifty students outside the observation area simultaneously took a half step back.

The wind lines of the Shattered Wind Blade were blocked by the paper shield.

The golden-red sunlight could not penetrate.

A ring of charred cracks immediately appeared around the edge of the paper shield.

The crack had crept in half an inch.

It was then forcefully suppressed by the character "聚" (jù).

Lu Jialan's blow was no small matter.

But the paper shield did not fall apart.

Instead, it pushed the wind blade back.

Lu Jialan's eyes narrowed.

He did not let go.

The shattering wind blades continued to press forward.

The character "聚" (ju, meaning "gather") in the center of the paper shield became increasingly bright.

The edges of one hundred sheets of white paper tightened simultaneously.

The golden-red wind blades were pushed to their limit.

next second.

Rebound.

boom!

Lu Jialan was thrown back three steps by the force of her own wind blade.

The tip of the Shattered Wind Blade spear touched the ground.

A ripple appeared around the ground barrier.

The large screen displayed a rapidly fluctuating reading.

The resonance of the shattering wind blades has been blocked.

[The paper shield successfully withstood the attack.]

The counter-attack is confirmed.

Lu Jialan took three steps back.

[The outcome is clearly being determined.]

Outside the entire sparring area, there was utter silence.

None of the fifty students observing spoke.

None of the eight senior brothers and sisters spoke.

Wang Peiwen stared at the message "Juzi Paper Shield successfully withstood" on the large screen, his finger hovering over the tablet, hesitant to tap it.

Yesterday was quiet.

The day before yesterday was about binding and tying up.

Today is a gathering.

Another new word.

And it's not about controlling the situation.

It is to gather a hundred blank sheets of paper into a solid shield and withstand the resonance of the Class A shattered wind blade and sun lamp.

Lu Jialan stood still.

The Shattering Wind Blade was still in his hand.

The gun trembled slightly.

He looked at the paper shield in front of Xu Du.

three seconds.

Five seconds.

Then, he slowly sheathed his blade.

The shattering wind blades lowered again.

"Understood."

Xu Du looked at him.

"Um."

Lu Jialan did not make another move.

He turned and walked toward the exit of the sparring area.

He paused when he reached the door.

There was no turning back.

"Special training next time."

"I'll change my route."

After saying that, he walked out of the sparring area.

Lin Qingzhu glanced at the barrier's judgment.

The large screen finally froze.

[Result of the exchange: Xu Du wins.]

[Reason for victory/defeat: The paper shield blocked the resonance of the Class A shattered wind blade solar lamp and generated an effective counter-vibration.]

[New record: Gathering.]

[Adaptation Performance: Solidified defense through the aggregation of white paper.]

[Note: This is not a universally applicable countermeasure rule; sufficient blank paper is required.]

Teacher Chen quickly took notes.

[New character record: 聚 (jù).]

[Consumable: 100 blank talisman sheets.]

[Trigger condition: After the White Paper Soul-Guiding Lamp spontaneously combusts without flame, the aggregation efficiency increases.]

[Combat Performance: Effectively defends against high-level single-target attacks of Class A.]

The observation area erupted in excitement.

"Xu Du won?"

Lu Jialan took three steps back.

"He admitted it himself?"

What is the character "聚"? Is it a new character?

"A special A+ in his first battle, and he blocked an A-rank shattering wind blade?"

"Not just any A-level student, but Lu Jialan, a third-year student."

"He also suggested changing the route."

"What do you mean?"

No one can explain it.

In the sparring area, Xu Du raised his hand.

The materialized paper shield dispersed.

One hundred sheets of white paper were separated again.

More than twenty of them had their edges scorched by the golden-red wind blades.

Several sheets also have cracks running through the paper.

Xu Du put the usable ones back into the talisman box.

The damaged paper was recorded separately by Teacher Chen.

[White paper wastage: 23 sheets.]

[Recyclable: 77 sheets.]

[Residual character: stable.]

Lin Qingzhu announced.

"Xu Du wins."

This sentence was broadcast through the loudspeaker array in the sparring area.

The students observing from the outer circle were completely outraged.

Outside the sparring area, someone has already posted a screenshot of the judgment.

Posts on the Jianggui Forum appeared quickly.

Xu Du defeats Lu Jialan in a sparring match!

[A new character: "聚" (jù)! One hundred sheets of white paper are gathered together to form a shield!]

[The shattered wind blade and the sun lamp resonated and were counter-vibrated!]

[The First Battle of the Special A+ Blank Paper Lamp!]

[Lu Jialan: I'll change the route for the next special training session.]

Wang Peiwen lowered his head and entered the data he had just received into the folder.

Another filename has been added.

[Gathering words—substantial defense.]

He paused.

Write the following in the remarks column:

Sufficient paper is required to support the load.

[Not a single-sheet defense.]

[Trigger efficiency is related to spontaneous combustion without a flame.]

After finishing writing, he looked up at Xu Du.

Xu Du had already picked up the talisman box and walked out of the sparring area.

The exchange has ended.

The observation area was not dispersed.

Several second- and third-year students stood there, seemingly still reeling from the shock.

A moment later, three people walked over.

Two men and one woman.

They did not give their names.

There were no formalities.

The senior female student looked at Xu Du and her first words were, "Did you receive the package?"

Xu Du glanced at her.

"Um."

The senior student nodded.

"That's fine then."

She did not explain.

Xu Du didn't ask.

A senior student next to him looked at Xu Du.

"The three of us would like to join your collaboration group."

Xu Du did not speak immediately.

Another senior student added a comment.

"It's not about becoming an apprentice."

"It's not just a nominal position."

"If you need support for future missions, we'll be there."

The senior female student said, "You are in charge of the main purification."

"We'll fill in for you."

After he said that, the eyes of the students observing around him widened.

The second and third-year students volunteered to join the Xu Du Collaboration Group.

Xu Du is a new student.

Before yesterday, he was a specially approved freshman in the training camp.

Today, someone has already volunteered to fill in for him.

Xu Du looked at Lin Qingzhu.

Lin Qingzhu stood not far away.

She was not surprised.

They did not stop it.

"allow."

Xu Du withdrew his gaze.

"it is good."

The three nodded.

No further words were said.

A temporary filing form quickly popped up on Teacher Chen's tablet.

[Xu Du Collaboration Group.]

[Temporary filing: Established.]

[Members: To be added.]

[Permissions: Temporary collaboration for practical training tasks.]

[Person in charge: Lin Qingzhu]

On the forum, the new post was quickly pushed to the top.

[Xudu Collaboration Group Established!]

[Three senior students from the second and third years of university volunteered to join!]

[It's not about becoming an apprentice, it's about filling a gap!]

[First day after the special A+ from the "White Paper Lamp" project, the collaboration team has filed a report!]

Outside the sparring area, the crowd had not yet dispersed.

Some people watched as Xu Du left carrying the talisman box.

Someone was watching the direction Lu Jialan walked in.

Some people are still looking at the new words recorded on the big screen.

[Gather.]

Wang Peiwen stood there, looking at the line of words.

On that day, he did not mention the abnormalities of the previous three leaders of the White Paper Lamp again.

They didn't ask about the risk curve again.

He simply copied the record of the character "聚" into his observation folder.

Then I added a line at the very bottom.

[Continue to observe.]
