Chapter 753 The Fifth Person Who Cannot Exist
"Ruoxi, your true essence is abundant, and you can release more Dao magic than anyone else." Ye Jun said, holding the analysis report, "But your accuracy problem will inevitably lead to the failure of your Dao magic."

"In other words, when it comes to actual combat, to compensate for your lack of accuracy, you'll tend to adopt a more intensive attack frequency, which will in turn render your advantage of abundant True Essence meaningless."

"That's right." Xie Ruoxi said with a wry smile.

The problem of low accuracy has never been solved since she joined the army until now.

Yan Yu had conducted a special test on her. Her main problems were her slow reaction and weak control ability. In addition, her mental quality was not stable enough. When she encountered a target, she would panic and her hands would tremble, and she would not have time to aim carefully. The combination of these three random factors made the landing range of her thunder magic very touching.

"It's difficult to improve the accuracy rate, and it takes more effort to get twice the result with less effort." Ye Jun said, "So Yan Yu came to me specifically before leaving, hoping to circumvent this problem through the formation."

"The final product is right in front of you."

Xie Ruoxi looked at the formation in front of him, and saw seal characters everywhere, densely packed, and the movement of the characters was like the dance of dragons and snakes, with no discernible pattern at all.

In fact, Ye Jun's current attainments in formations were even higher than Mei Yingxue's. After all, as a trusted "imperial envoy" of the Privy Council, Mei was also tasked with monitoring the monks of the Four Armies, so he couldn't leave his job to focus on scientific research.

"Stand in the center of the formation," Ye Jun instructed. "Then cast your thunder spell and shoot at the target over there... Start with the Jade Pivot Thunder. Is that okay?"

"Oh." Xie Ruoxi didn't think much about it, and stepped into the formation as he was told. He rolled up his sleeves and condensed the green light of Jade Pivot Thunder from his hands.

Since it was just a test, she was not in a hurry to set off the mine immediately. Instead, she carefully estimated the range and distance of the target, took aim seriously, and then threw the mine.

According to past experience, after the Jade Pivot Thunder flew out of his hand, it would rise slightly, and then slowly fall in a gentle parabola - yes, this thunder ball would also be affected by gravity, so the lead time had to be estimated based on the height and distance, which was extremely unfriendly to a poor student like Xie Ruoxi.

However, just after the Jade Pivot Thunder was shot out one meter away, it quickly split into two, two into four... In just three or four seconds, it split into countless dense green light spots, weaving into an airtight net, and hit the target and the wall behind it directly!

Xie Ruoxi:!!!

Her eyes widened in shock as she saw that the lightning net not only blew the target into pieces, but also collapsed a large section of the wall behind it, leaving dense holes and cracks clearly visible.

"Hmm." Ye Jun carefully examined the marks on the wall and said, "It's a little different from what I expected... How could it be so powerful?"

"What is that?" Xie Ruoxi finally screamed.

"Shotgun Formation." Ye Jun said casually, "When your team's Zhao Yuanzhen was undergoing the heavenly tribulation, the lightning split on its own. It gave me some inspiration. Simply put, by sacrificing the power of the lightning, you can split a single lightning ball into a large number of small lightning points, greatly expanding the range of your lightning bombardment."

"Ah, this..." Xie Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, then said, "Is it because the lightning can't be dodged and will be broken in one strike, so expanding the attack range is the most cost-effective?"

"Yes." Ye Jun looked at her in surprise. "Ruoxi, you are quite smart. Yan Yu also said... forget it, it's okay."

Xie Ruoxi smiled awkwardly again, thinking that Yan Yu actually said bad things about me in front of outsiders, I'm going to be angry!
"Just as you said," Ye Jun continued, "Every tribulation thunder contains explosive destructive energy, enough to destroy you with a single strike. But the price is that once disturbed by any external factors, it will be impossible to maintain the original restrained steady state."

"If it hits, it will explode."

"So, when you're going through the tribulation, use this shotgun formation to split your lightning. The degree of radiation is related to distance; the farther, the wider the range. However, if the lightning net is stretched too wide, holes will appear. Current calculations show that within 600 meters, the attacking tribulation lightning can hit every target without missing a single one. However, at a distance of 2000 meters, the hit rate might only be 30%..."

Ye Jun continued to talk non-stop, and when he saw that Xie Ruoxi seemed a little dizzy, he stopped talking tactfully and said:

"The detailed data model is all in this report. Take it back to Yan Yu and he will design a strategy for you. By the way, you will be going through the tribulation this afternoon, right?"

"Yeah." Xie Ruoxi said honestly, "The original plan was to schedule it for me at 4 pm. I don't know if I can make it in time."

"It's definitely in time. It's just a matter of calculating the attack range based on your actual situation." Ye Jun suddenly asked, "Will he be very busy after he comes back?"

"It's okay." Xie Ruoxi forced a smile. "The main thing is for everyone to get together. After all, we've been in the Northern Territory for a few weeks and haven't seen each other for a long time."

Ye Jun subconsciously understood Xie Ruoxi's "get together" as chatting and laughing in the team meeting room, and thought to himself, Yan Yu and I haven't seen each other for a long time, can we get together with him?

Forget it. After Xie Ruoxi, there are Su Yunjin and Yang Linhui. The three of them have different combat specialties, so we need to design special formations for each of them.

After all, among the three major items for overcoming tribulation: flying sword, magic weapon and formation, only the formation can be adjusted according to local conditions, so the corresponding burden on Ye Jun will naturally not be light.

I should make myself more valuable first. If I can't make achievements in the profession of formation master, then all his efforts in helping me will be in vain.

Xie Ruoxi said goodbye to Ye Jun, then took her analysis report, returned to Yan Yu's room, and knocked on the door.

"Come in." Yan Yu's voice came from inside.

Although she had been mentally prepared, the smell of battle as soon as she entered immediately broke Xie Ruoxi's defenses.

It’s team building, but I’m the only one not called, right?
She looked at Yan Yu with tears in her eyes, without saying a word, like a rejected puppy.

Yan Yu turned his head away awkwardly, thinking to himself that it was a good thing you didn't participate in the end, otherwise my reputation as the captain would have been ruined by a bunch of little rascals like you.

After a while, Xie Ruoxi slowly spoke, her tone resentful:
"Captain, don't you have anything to explain to me?" "Tsk." Yan Yu subconsciously frowned and asked in a stern and solemn tone, "What qualifications do you have to ask me to explain to you?"

"I will be going through the tribulation this afternoon." Xie Ruoxi said.

Yan Yu was silent for a moment, and could only slow down his expression and tone, explaining:

"After all, I was in the North and hadn't been back for a while. Everyone missed me, so..."

"Don't I miss you?" Xie Ruoxi bit her lower lip and asked aggrievedly, "Why didn't you invite me to the team building?"

"You will have to undergo the tribulation in the afternoon." Yan Yu said.

He also had a few cold sweats on his back. In fact, most of the time, people in his position faced the problem of how to prevent them from fighting each other.

For example, Chen Tianming of Old Taishan completely separated his wife and mistress, never seeing each other from birth to death. Whether it was Chen's mother, Chen Lingyun, or Yan Yu in his previous life, they all knew that he definitely had lovers and illegitimate children outside, but who they were, how many there were, and where they were all were completely unknown.

This is a typical behavior of a superior. His wife and lover, as the actual subordinates, are objects that he can completely control without any interference from others.

But Yan Yu's situation was rather special. Whether it was the girls within the team or the women outside, he could not unilaterally control or dominate them. The reason why this harem could be maintained was, on the one hand, because of the intimate relationships that occurred during the pursuit of the Golden Core rank, and on the other hand, because no one had wanted to leave so far.

They all volunteered!
Yan Yu’s attitude is also very clear: If you want to fight, fight. If you don’t want to fight anymore, you can quit at any time. I promise not to stop you.

In the end, the Shura field he had expected never unfolded. Instead, everyone joined forces to besiege him. At first, it seemed like a good thing, as if his personal charm had already made them give up their possessiveness and hostility towards him... It wasn't until the previous round of battle that Yan Yu suddenly realized that something was wrong.

If this continues, there will be no fire in the backyard, but I am afraid my body will not be able to bear it.

Just as Chen Lingyun said, without relying on any drugs or secret methods, her limit seemed to be only four people at most.

But the team consists of five people.

If everyone had to unite and fight together, he might not be able to completely crush the five of them. He would most likely be defeated by the fourth or fifth person, which would severely damage his captain's authority. Not to mention the others, that vixen Zhao Yuanzhen would definitely mock him and humiliate him to the utmost.

For example, "Oh my god, you can't get any further than this," "Is she too good or are you too useless?", "What a delicious and tasty loser attitude," and "Haha, not only am I going to take a picture, I'm going to send it to them so everyone can enjoy it for free!"

Thinking of this, Yan Yu could no longer bear it and secretly said that he must not let that kind of thing happen.

Then the answer is simple: gatherings of five people must be avoided at all times.

"Ruoxi," Yan Yu said earnestly, "If you want to practice with me, you can come to me alone. Why do you have to be with them?"

"Because I don't want to be left alone." Xie Ruoxi's reason was simple. "Besides, if I'm alone with you, you'll definitely bully me. With them helping me share the pressure, I'll feel much more relaxed."

"But have you ever considered that they might bully you, too?" Yan Yu said confidently. "Today, Chen Lingyun is directing the group, letting the others take turns playing before her. You know Lingyun's personality. What will you do if she says, 'Ruoxi, you go first?'"

"If you don't agree, Lingyun will definitely hold a grudge against you. If you agree, can you resist me in my prime? Not only will you be defeated, but you will also be embarrassed in front of them."

Xie Ruoxi's face turned pale when he heard this, and he quickly said:

"No! Lingyun won't treat me as cannon fodder. I... I also have the strength to fight!"

"Because your endurance is too poor." Yan Yu used the method of adding fuel to the fire, "You have to admit this."

"Um……"

"Since your endurance is poor, I can't expect you to drain my energy. What else can you be if not cannon fodder?" Yan Yu said earnestly, "Given Lingyun's style of making the best use of people and resources, she will definitely use you as cannon fodder. In fact, the most suitable partner for you is Sister Zhao. After all, she will consider your feelings. No matter how many people there are, Sister Zhao's words don't count, and your experience will be worse. What do you think?"

"Uh, okay..." Xie Ruoxi was fooled by Yan Yu and thought it made some sense. So she didn't care about not inviting her to the team building in the morning. She handed over the information given by Ye Jun and said:
"Captain, please help me take a look."

"Let me take a look." Yan Yu carefully looked at it for a moment and commented, "Not bad, the shotgun formation is a fantastic design. It is indeed suitable for your situation."

"The question now is, at what distance should I attack..." Xie Ruoxi repeated Ye Jun's words to Yan Yu in full, "If it's too far, it's easy to miss, but if it's too close, it increases the risk."

"Isn't that easy?" Yan Yu said with a smile, "Since we can do it perfectly at 600 meters, then we can wait until the lightning is within 600 meters before we take action."

"But what if there's a mistake?" Xie Ruoxi asked nervously, "600 meters is already very close. If we make a mistake, it might be too late to remedy the situation, and the lightning will explode right in front of us."

"Everything is so perfect, why would there be mistakes?" Yan Yu asked her back.

"Well, what if?" Xie Ruoxi was still hesitant. "For example, if a lightning strike just happened to be missed."

"Then use a few more thunder spells." Yan Yu said.
