Chapter 429 I Want to Listen to Good Words
The so-called training of monks is mainly to increase their proficiency in the use of their own attack methods.

If a practitioner frequently uses a certain type or even a certain category of Taoist magic, the consumption of true energy will gradually decrease, and the speed and power of the magic will also be increased; the same is true for assistant officers. The more they use the magic weapon, the smoother it will be and the more they can use it.

The envoy's profession does not require much training. After all, it is more cost-effective to use low-level envoys when you are at a low level, and replace them with higher-level envoys after your cultivation level is improved... For example, envoys of high rank such as the Golden Silkworm Gu of a Hundred Poisons and the Ox-Head and Horse-Face are theoretically worth using all the time, but they are so rare that even someone with the wealth of Chen Lingyun cannot get them, so most envoy cultivators don't have to consider this kind of thing at all, they can just replace them and that's it.

If you ask which profession requires the most training, it is definitely the Sword Immortal - even among all the extraordinary professions in the world, the Sword Immortal is the one that requires the most operation and technology.

Yan Yu supervised the training in the training ground, mainly looking after Lin Ning and Su Yunjin, and supervising Xie Ruoxi to prevent her from being lazy; as for Zhao Yuanzhen, there was no need to worry about him, and it was useless for Chen Lingyun to worry about him, so these two were left alone for the time being.

Xie Ruoxi's training in thunder magic required a vast amount of target material. A single strike of her thunder magic could shatter a high-strength alloy target, which would leave a mark with ordinary Taoist magic. As a result, the new targets sent to the school were now simply pressed into pieces without any external processing—in the words of Qi Changping, "You can't tell if they're shattered anyway."

Lin Ning and Su Yunjin's sparring session was more technically demanding. Since the former was practicing the Dividing Clouds Eight Diagrams Step, and the latter's sword control wasn't strong enough to overpower the opponent, they simply unleashed the Southern Dipper Galaxy Secret Art, imitating Master Jing's dual attack with magic and sword to intensify the pressure of the sparring session.

Yan Yu, leisurely watching from the sidelines, commented that Yun Jin's magic and sword skills weren't very good, her magic too strong and her swordsmanship too weak. Lin Ning's Dividing Cloud Bagua Steps weren't yet at the level of mastery, so her performance was even worse. The two girls laughed and laughed, back and forth, creating a surprisingly cute and beautiful atmosphere, like a pair of weaklings pecking at each other.

After being hit by Lang Feiyun's water bullet again, Lin Ning was now soaked all over and looked extremely embarrassed.

"How about taking a break?" Su Yunjin clapped his hands and said, "Let's go to the locker room to change into a waterproof raincoat and rest for a while before practicing again?"

"Yeah." Lin Ning nodded, but did not go to the locker room. Instead, she walked towards Yan Yu.

Su Yunjin's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Ning Ning walked to the captain and took a deep breath, as if she was making a difficult decision. Then she finally made up her mind and said coquettishly:
"Captain! I can't get good at it no matter how hard I try. Please give me some pointers!"

Although her voice was very pinched and coquettish, her expression was stiff, making it seem more like she was throwing a tantrum rather than acting coquettishly.

Yan Yu was immediately shocked: Did Sister Lin take the wrong medicine? Why is she talking like Tang Xiaolian?
Seeing Yan Yu dumbfounded and speechless, Lin Ning's expression changed several times, as if she was about to get angry, but she quickly suppressed her anger and continued:

"I'd get frustrated and discouraged if I failed repeatedly in practice. Can't the captain take care of me?"

Yan Yu:………………

No, what do you want me to care about you?
Seeing that Lin Ning looked calm but her eyes were extremely nervous, Yan Yu suddenly realized:

This is because after seeing me comforting and encouraging Yunjin before, her competitive spirit was aroused, and she wanted to compete with Yunjin for the captain's favor!

Alas, although as an excellent captain, it is natural for him to be loved by his teammates, it would be bad if they started to be jealous of each other.

It’s better to comfort Ningning first and let her focus on the real thing.

Yan Yu said gently:
"Ningning, your steps are already very familiar, and I can see that you've put a lot of effort into it. The reason you feel 'unskilled' is simply because Yunjin's Nandou Xinghe secret technique is supposedly good at stopping and trapping enemies, so it's a bit too difficult for you."

"You don't need to make any adjustments now, just keep training at this pace. As you adapt to her attack rhythm, you'll find that attacks that were previously unavoidable can slowly be dodged."

"Yeah, I understand." Lin Ning was also excited.

As expected! As long as I learn to act like a spoiled child, the captain's tone and attitude will soften!

In reality, Yan Yu's statement hasn't changed much. The first part is "Is that all you can do? You need more practice," while the second part is "If you keep training, you'll get stronger." The meanings of the two statements are essentially the same.

But for Lin Ning, the feeling brought by the first sentence, "You can't do it, you need to practice more," and the second sentence, "You are great, keep practicing," are worlds apart.

Since the captain is soft-spoken and doesn't respond to harsh words, then I just need to say more soft words in the future to prevent him from saying harsh words to me.
She was secretly delighted when she saw Su Yunjin also come to Yan Yu and said:

"I heard everything the captain said just now." "Since Ningning can dodge my Nan Dou Xing He secret technique as long as she continues to practice her footwork, how can I improve my training so that she can't dodge it?"

Yan Yu:?
Asking me to buy a spear to poke my shield, right?
Seeing Yan Yu standing there in a daze, Su Yunjin slowed down his tone and said gently and earnestly:
"Ningning wants to improve, and so do I. And what if we encounter a highly mobile enemy in the future, one that's faster and more agile than her, and my Southern Dipper Galaxy Secret Technique can't catch up? Captain, you don't want me to make a mistake in this area and delay the team's tactical execution, do you?"

Yan Yu was speechless and could only point out and say:
"Yunjin, don't underestimate yourself. Your Southern Dipper Galaxy Secret Art is still quite powerful. If you really encounter an extremely mobile enemy, you'll need to focus on restricting their movement. Don't rush to defeat them with one move. Think about where they'll hide from your attack and how to force them into a position where they can't evade... High-end matches are like this; you can't expect to kill them instantly."

"Then when you killed Xiandao Jingyin before, didn't you kill her instantly?" Su Yunjin asked in surprise.

Yan Yu:………………

Can you talk? I can kill her in seconds, so I'm awesome. Are you as awesome as me?

"Xiandao Jingyin's attack was a surprise attack, so it can't be analyzed as a general case." Yan Yu encouraged Su Yunjin, "You have a strong sense of the overall situation, which is your advantage. The Nandou Xinghe secret technique can perfectly play to your strengths. As long as you continue to work hard in this area, these problems will not become a problem for you."

"Yeah, I understand, Captain." Su Yunjin left with satisfaction.

Lin Ning is here again.

"Captain." She continued to maintain the same clipped tone as before, and said awkwardly, "I just heard what you said to Yunjin."

Yan Yu couldn't help laughing: So you are all eavesdropping on each other, right?

Looking at Su Yunjin again, although he seemed to be standing far away thinking about something, he was indeed turning his ear towards this side!
"I just have a question," Lin Ning continued coquettishly, "If I encounter an opponent like Yun Jin, who uses control spells to gradually compress my movement space, what should I do?"

"I'll teach you." Yan Yu said cheerfully, "First, don't speak with that clipping tone."

"Ah?" Lin Ning was stunned.

"Then, you all need to train hard," Yan Yu continued. "Increasing your strength has many benefits, including but not limited to being able to defeat your enemies, making me look at you with new eyes, and not having to worry about things like 'What should I do if she gets stronger?'"

"Captain, your favorability can't be increased by just acting cute or asking questions, so please show your best."

Lin Ning was silent for a moment, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Yan Yu..." she whispered.

"What's wrong?" Yan Yu asked.

"I'm not trying to please you!" Lin Ning tore off her pretense of a little girl, her eyes wide and she said anxiously, "I just want you to treat me equally! Do you understand? If you want to appease your teammates, just appease them all. Why do you speak so softly to them and mock and spur me on?"

"Because it's interesting to see you so anxious." Yan Yu smiled subconsciously.

Lin Ning's breath suddenly stopped.

Then she lowered her head and silently took five or six steps back.

Then he suddenly exerted force towards Yan Yu, took a quick step and jumped up.

Flying kick!
