Lu Mingfei starts from Douluo
Chapter 7 Sparring
Lu Mingfei had a terrible headache; he hadn't felt this tired even when he took the TOEFL last year.
However, he was a high school student after all, and since he didn't have any language barriers, he finally managed to grasp the pattern after a few extra days.
This was also thanks to the martial spirit of this world. He could clearly feel that his hearing and vision were becoming clearer and clearer, and his memory alone had improved by a lot. Now he could barely understand the books in the library.
If he could go back to his current study habits, he might be able to get into a top university if he puts in the effort.
Thus began Lu Mingfei's life as a first-year student: getting up early to clean, attending classes, and spending evenings in the library.
However, this leisurely life did not last long. Xiao Wu felt so bored that she was about to grow moss, so she actually wagered the entire dormitory against the upperclassmen.
Lu Mingfei swore this was the first time he'd ever felt so urge to curse. Even being willful should have its limits. If Xiao Wu really wanted to gamble, she should at least have consulted him first, and wait for Tang San, who was now in a fighting position, to return before making a decision.
With things having come to this point, Lu Mingfei had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it in order to avoid being called a pet. Fortunately, Tang San returned to school just as the match was about to begin, ending the contest.
The opposing leader, Xiao Chenyu, was completely humiliated, and now no one in the entire academy dared to provoke the previously vulnerable work-study student group.
"Tang San, you're amazing!" Tang San's roommates celebrated.
Lu Mingfei quickly clapped along, because Xiao Chenyu had promised to take over all the work-study jobs, so they could receive work-study subsidies for free.
However, Lu Mingfei was clearly celebrating too soon.
"This is all thanks to my teacher. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today." Tang San said proudly, looking at Xiao Wu and Lu Mingfei beside him: "Lu Mingfei, speaking of which, we haven't sparred yet. Today, this place is spacious enough for us to try it out. Don't worry, I won't use any soul skills. It'll be a fair fight."
Lu Mingfei: "???"
Lu Mingfei felt as if a crow had flown over his head. He glanced at his roommates around him, then looked at Xiao Wu, who clearly had a smiling face that seemed to be waiting for a good show.
Well, it seems we have no choice but to fight today.
Lu Mingfei never expected that before he even encountered school bullying, he would be used as a target of a brat in his dormitory. Even if the bully surrendered, he probably wouldn't let him go.
Lu Mingfei was right; Tang San had exactly that plan.
During this Soul Hunt, Grandmaster narrowly escaped death for the sake of his Soul Ring. Tang San felt he should repay Grandmaster's kindness. Knowing that Grandmaster had a knot in his heart, he decided to help Grandmaster complete the theoretical proof.
If he could win over Lu Mingfei and Xiao Wu and have them become his disciples, the master would be very happy.
The crowd spread out to give the two space, and even the older students on the side didn't leave, wanting to watch the excitement.
"You make the first move," Tang San said, placing one hand behind his back like a martial arts master.
"So arrogant?" Although he knew Tang San was indeed capable of arrogance, Lu Mingfei still almost rolled his eyes.
He knew that fighting was absolutely essential in this world of Soul Masters, and even the higher grades had special practical training, but he really didn't expect his first opponent to be Tang San.
Not only does the opponent seem to actually know martial arts manuals, but now that he has absorbed a soul ring, his soul power is also higher than his.
Lu Mingfei was considering whether to go all out, but in the end he decided against it.
Now, just having one eye-shaped martial soul is already causing this much trouble. If everything is exposed, he'll probably never have a peaceful life again. He'd accept it even if Tang San beat him up today.
He calmed himself down, took a few deep breaths, and although he was mentally prepared for failure, he was still quite angry.
Lu Mingfei could feel a flame surging in his veins.
And so, the golden eyes burned with intense heat.
Tang San remembered the lesson from last time and did not use the Purple Demon Eye this time. However, he was immediately terrified when he met Lu Mingfei's gaze.
Compared to the faint candlelight of the last time, Lu Mingfei's golden eyes this time shimmered with the brilliance of molten gold.
"Mental pressure can actually achieve this?"
Tang San clenched his fists. Even though he tried to avoid eye contact and used his Xuan Tian Gong to resist, he still found that his body was trembling uncontrollably.
Lu Mingfei took the initiative and made a move without any fancy techniques. He simply recalled the boxing matches he had seen on TV and quickly threw a heavy punch straight at the goal.
Tang San immediately crossed his arms to block and withstand the attack, but the unexpectedly huge force instantly caused him pain. He hurriedly circulated his internal energy to use the Xuan Yu Hand and immediately launched a counterattack, gripping his left hand with a claw and trying to use a grappling technique.
But Lu Mingfei didn't give him that chance. He had watched Tang San fight and knew that the opponent's fighting skills were amazing, and he would quickly retract his defense after each punch.
Seeing that Lu Mingfei was prepared, Tang San had no choice but to abandon his plan to capture him. He unleashed his soul power and began exchanging punches with Lu Mingfei.
The two exchanged blows, and the battle quickly escalated into a fierce contest. Their fists collided repeatedly in the air, producing dull thuds of flesh and bone colliding, a thrilling and exhilarating experience.
Lu Mingfei was secretly surprised. This was the first time he had used soul power in battle. He originally thought it would be one-sided, after all, Tang San was a master who knew martial arts secrets and had now absorbed a soul ring to advance to a soul master. But he did not expect that Tang San's attacks were so weak and his movements seemed to be getting slower and slower.
Meanwhile, Tang San on the other side was increasingly shocked as the fight progressed. Despite having a higher soul power level and the assistance of the Mysterious Heaven Skill and the Mysterious Jade Hand, he was still unable to gain any advantage in terms of strength.
"No, this can't go on any longer."
Tang San immediately changed his move, using the Ghost Shadow Step to create distance. He intended to use his agility to gain the upper hand, but unexpectedly, Lu Mingfei, as if by premonition, intercepted his movement with a punch that struck him mid-flight.
He was in a state where new strength had not yet been generated and old strength had been exhausted. Even though he blocked with his arm, he was still knocked away and tumbled in mid-air.
After staggering to the ground, Tang San was filled with disbelief. His Ghost Shadow Step had actually been seen through by the opponent at the very beginning.
In fact, Lu Mingfei did not see through Tang San's footwork. He just followed his intuition and threw the punch, but he did not expect it to have a critical hit effect.
Taking advantage of Tang San's mistake, Lu Mingfei didn't let the opportunity pass and quickly moved forward to deliver several more punches.
Although Tang San was somewhat flustered, he quickly regained his composure and assessed the situation. He sprang up like an eel, and using the force of another heavy punch from Lu Mingfei, he suddenly retreated to create distance. At the same time, he took out a pebble from his storage soul tool and threw it.
"Hey, hey, hey, did you cheat?" Looking at the pebbles that appeared as if by magic, Lu Mingfei suddenly wanted to curse. He had already been on guard against Tang San's move and tried to fight him at close range to prevent him from picking up the stones. Who knows where these stones came from?
Helpless, Lu Mingfei could only concentrate his soul power on his fists and keep knocking down the incoming stones. Because of the pain in his hands, a surge of anger gradually rose in his heart.
Lu Mingfei is most annoyed by these kinds of brats who throw things when they can't win. Do they even know how to fight?
Tang San was unleashing a barrage of hidden weapons when he suddenly sensed a dangerous aura that sent chills down his spine. He instinctively looked over and saw Lu Mingfei's golden eyes blazing with fire, as if a lion was roaring and charging toward him!
The next moment, Lu Mingfei suddenly exerted force with both legs, and his figure disappeared from the original spot as if he had teleported.
Without activating his Purple Demon Eye, Tang San couldn't even make out his figure.
"First Soul Skill, Blue Silver Entanglement!" In a moment of desperation, Tang San immediately summoned Blue Silver Grass to block Lu Mingfei's path, but Lu Mingfei reacted even faster, using the Blue Silver Grass vines on the ground for leverage to quickly retreat and move away.
"Enough, mistress."
At Xiao Wu's shout, the two of them came to their senses at the same time, and Tang San realized what he had done.
"I lost." Tang San shook his head, his expression complex.
Lu Mingfei also caught his breath slightly, and the golden light in his eyes went out. He looked at his hands in disbelief. Was the person he had just fought really himself?
