"Were those tactics really something you could come up with in fifteen minutes?" Huo Wu asked in astonishment.
"Fifteen minutes?" Quanyi was taken aback. Huo Wu seemed to have misunderstood something.
"No, no, you're mistaken. I've just been thinking about how to defeat Bai Yan Teacher since yesterday."
In fact, Quanyi's strategies weren't a flash of inspiration, but rather the result of his meticulous analysis and calculation.
They were the result of combining his experience and information from the first battle, and spending all his free time, calculating bit by bit.
Even when his body was resting, his mind never rested for a moment.
Hearing Quanyi's words, Huo Wu's cherry lips parted wide, her eyes fixed on Quanyi.
At that moment, Quanyi's back suddenly seemed incredibly tall in her eyes.
In Quanyi's words, Huo Wu sensed the biggest difference between herself and Quanyi, which was their attitude.
Whether it was physical training, Soul Power cultivation, or combat training, Quanyi never slacked off, always doing his best every moment.
Huo Wu felt an unprecedented pressure from Quanyi.
In the past two days of combat training, even though she had tried her best, she was still inferior to Quanyi, even becoming a burden and foil to him. The extremely proud Huo Wu couldn't accept this reality.
This made Huo Wu suddenly have deep doubts about herself.
Can I really catch up to Quanyi? Quanyi was like a dazzling sun, and the closer Huo Wu got, the more she felt like she was being scorched by the blazing sun.
Huo Wu suddenly fell silent, and Quanyi asked strangely, "What's wrong? Why aren't you talking?"
After a while, Huo Wu asked in a low voice, "Xiao Yi, can I really catch up to you?"
Quanyi understood what Huo Wu meant, and didn't expect the cheerful Huo Wu to have times of depression.
"I won't slow down to wait for you."
Quanyi didn't stop, nor did he comfort Huo Wu. On the contrary, his words seemed cold and ruthless.
Huo Wu's heart was stimulated by the cold words, and she suddenly felt her head sink, her heart as if it had sunk to the bottom of a valley, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Then she felt her eyes heat up, and tears welled up, but Huo Wu held them back.
Quanyi was looking forward the whole time and didn't notice the change in Huo Wu's emotions.
He continued to walk forward a few steps, saying as he walked, "Because I see you as a rival. Don't expect me to pity you. If you want to catch up to me, then work hard."
What? Huo Wu's tear-soaked eyes suddenly widened, and the tears that she had been holding back suddenly flowed down.
Huo Wu quickly raised her hand to wipe away the tears that almost fell on Quanyi's shoulder.
"Hmph, conceited! Of course, I don't need you to pity me, you're just being sentimental," Huo Wu retorted jiaochenly, but her voice trembled slightly.
She heard Quanyi's recognition of her in Quanyi's words. This was more effective than any comfort.
Quanyi didn't expose Huo Wu's fragility, but silently walked forward.
The haze in Huo Wu's heart suddenly disappeared, and Quanyi's words 'rival' aroused Huo Wu's fighting spirit.
"Quanyi, don't be complacent. Remember this, I will always be chasing after you. As long as you slack off, I will immediately surpass you, and I will never give you a chance to overtake me again."
Huo Wu raised her head, raised her right hand high, pointed at the sun in the distance, and swore loudly.
"Hahahaha, how scary," Quanyi said, seeing Huo Wu cheer up, and cooperated with Huo Wu with a smile.
"What are you laughing at? You should be more nervous," Huo Wu patted Quanyi's shoulder with some dissatisfaction.
"It's nothing, and I'm very nervous now."
Quanyi recognized Huo Wu's potential, whether it was her cultivation talent or her combat talent, Huo Wu could be said to be at the top level of the Douluo Continent.
Moreover, he believed that if Huo Wu worked hard, it was entirely possible for her to keep up with him.
That's why Quanyi would go to great lengths to encourage a little girl.
If it was someone with a huge difference in talent, Quanyi wouldn't be so cruel as to encourage the other party to pursue an impossible dream.
However, Huo Wu was different. She was only six years old. It would be a pity if she became depressed so early because of a temporary setback.
"Alright, your Dormitory is almost here. Remember to rest well, and don't try to cultivate when you're exhausted. It'll only backfire," Quanyi advised.
"Got it," Huo Wu said, jumping off Quanyi's back.
Huo Wu looked at Quanyi, her face a little flushed, and stammered, "Thank you."
"You're welcome," Quanyi said with a smile.
Huo Wu turned and hurried into the Dormitory.
She felt ashamed for showing Quanyi her vulnerable side, but at the same time, she was grateful to Quanyi, so she was a little shy.
Quanyi watched Huo Wu enter the Dormitory before turning to leave.
...
The Training Ground seemed to have become Quanyi's personal training area.
Arriving here, Quanyi began to train his Soul Skills and Fire Control.
Quanyi's Self-Created Soul Skill—Flame Bullet, wrapped with the Rhino's Mark, shot into the distance.
"Bang!" A huge explosion came from in front of Quanyi.
This was the last move Quanyi used in today's battle.
This was the longest-range, fastest, and most powerful move Quanyi had mastered at this stage.
Moreover, this move could create a secondary explosion, further extending the attack range.
Having Fire Control, Quanyi could of course perform a second-stage attack like Huo Wu, but he didn't have the opportunity to show it in today's battle.
During the cultivation process, Quanyi discovered a secret: Steel and Sharpness was of great help to Quanyi's control of flames.
If he hadn't gone through the cultivation process of Steel and Sharpness, Quanyi's control over flames would definitely not be as good as it was now.
The essence of Steel and Sharpness cultivation was the cultivation of spiritual power, and controlling flames also required spiritual power.
The cultivation of Steel and Sharpness and Fire Control training were actually connected to some extent.
Quanyi felt that Steel and Sharpness could also be called a Self-Created Soul Skill.
Without relying on a Soul Ring, being able to generate a certain amount of attack and defense power with just Soul Power could indeed be called a Self-Created Soul Skill.
It was at this moment that Quanyi became even more curious about the Quan Family Fist Technique Founder, who was Quanyi's own grandfather.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two consecutive explosions were Quanyi's secondary ejections.
Exquisite operation requires the controller's strong spiritual power, and Quanyi has a certain talent in this regard.
However, Quanyi didn't practice this move much.
Because this move had a major flaw, which was the fifty-meter range limit of the Rhino's Mark.
The power and distance of Quanyi's Flame Bullet would increase with the increase of control and Soul Power.
However, the Rhino's Mark was different; it had a strict distance limit.
Moreover, the Rhino's Mark itself was not a long-range attack; its greater role was in close combat.
