Godslayer: The different abilities represented by the twelve two-hour periods of the day

"Next, I'll have a few people demonstrate." After explaining the swordsmanship, Instructor Han tossed aside the straight sword in his hand and took two wooden swords from the shelf next to him.

"You're the one! The one who said his firearms could take down high-level mystical weapons, yes, that's you. Come up here and demonstrate for everyone!"

Instructor Han immediately picked Lin Shi, having heard that he was skilled with a gun in the Forbidden City, so his marksmanship must be exceptional.

He's tall and thin, with a well-proportioned figure, but he doesn't look like he has much flesh on him. He's definitely not good in close combat, so we'll use him to establish our authority.

He failed to notice the strange expressions on everyone's faces when he called Lin Shi up.

To the new recruits, this guy was capable of holding his own in close combat against the Masked Captain.

In fact, under the same conditions, Lin Shi wouldn't last long in close combat with Wang Mian, but he would be more than capable of taking on Instructor Han.

After all, he could be considered half a disciple of Chen Muye.

Lin Shi stepped onto the stage, gripping the wooden sword in one hand, his eyes fixed on Instructor Han, afraid that he might fail if he wasn't careful, since he couldn't last more than 5 minutes against Chen Muyi.

"We all know that humans have blind spots, and so does mystery. The sword-wielding technique I'm about to demonstrate cleverly utilizes these blind spots while maximizing the swiftness and power of the blade. Thus..."

At this point, Instructor Han suddenly swung his knife without warning.

——!

With a soft sound, Lin Shi easily blocked the swift attack with one hand while holding the knife.

Instructor Han: (O_o)??

He still doesn't believe it.

He took a few steps back and swung the wooden sword fiercely once more!

Snapped!

Lin Shi blocked it.

I refuse to believe it!!

Instructor Han took out another wooden sword from the weapon rack, wielding two swords in his hands, and then unleashed his unique skill, the Starburst Abandoned Healing Slash.

With the aid of his two swords, Instructor Han slashed with his wooden sword at an ever-increasing speed!

Snap, snap, snap—!

A series of clanging sounds rang out as Lin Shi swung his wooden sword, almost leaving afterimages, steadily parrying each attack...

After a dozen seconds, Instructor Han, who had lost his guard, silently put away his twin swords.

On the stage, Instructor Han and Lin Shi stared at each other.

After a long pause, Instructor Han, having recovered, spoke up, "You're good with guns... and you've also learned with knives?"

"Uh, I've studied it, but my marksmanship is better than my knife skills."

Instructor Han slowly closed his eyes, feeling utterly hopeless. This guy who only knew how to use guns, even with all his special skills, couldn't win a fight. Who taught him this...?

"Who did you learn it from?"

"Chen Muye."

Chen Muye, how could he not have heard of this name?

He was once one of the two great geniuses of Shangjing, the Black Impermanence among the Black and White Impermanence.

He could beat his apprentice with a ton of bricks...

No, I need to choose carefully later; I can't afford to make another mistake.

Instructor Han: "...You may leave!"

Then he swept his eyes over the crowd.

This time, he was obviously much more careful in choosing than before.

Every recruit training camp has one or two weirdos. I was just unlucky last time, but I hope I don't get picked on a weirdo this time.

Soon after, they settled on a boy with an average appearance, a slightly expressionless face, and not very strong... He's the one!

"That kid over there, yes, that's you, come up here."

Lin Qiye turned his head and saw the person Instructor Han was pointing to. His lips twitched. You really know how to pick someone!

Cao Yuan was taken aback, looked around, and confirmed that the person was referring to him.

Lin Shi wanted to applaud Instructor Han. He was truly brave; Instructor Han was indeed worthy of his reputation.

"There might be work to do later," Lin Shi said to Lin Qiye.

"Huh..." Lin Qiye was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and asked doubtfully, "That can't be right, isn't the entire camp's forbidden area sealed off?"

"Just in case, your Forbidden Ruins weren't completely sealed either."

Lin Qiye nodded. His forbidden realm was not completely sealed, so it was also possible that Cao Yuan's super-dangerous forbidden realm was not completely suppressed.

Moreover, Cao Yuan's forbidden artifact is quite unique; once he grasps the sword, he can't even control himself, so the effect of the forbidden artifact is even less.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Qiye said to Lin Shi, "If Instructor Han can't stop the Madman Cao Yuan when that time comes, I'll go and stop the Madman Cao Yuan, and you'll go and put on the tape."

Lin Shi nodded, then turned to Baili Pangpang, "Take out Cao Yuan's chastity belt."

"A chastity belt? Cao Yuan had a chastity belt?"

Baili Pangpang was puzzled, but he quickly realized what was happening and handed it to Lin Shi.

"Hurry up and get up here! Stop dawdling!" Han, the instructor on the platform, shouted impatiently.

Cao Yuan hesitated for a while, but finally went on stage.

"Has anyone taught you how to use a knife before?"

"No."

He loses his mind and starts slashing people as soon as he picks up a knife; he would never willingly pick up a knife or learn how to use it.

"Hmm...that's good." Instructor Han breathed a sigh of relief; this time, he had finally encountered a normal person.

"Come on, let's practice." Instructor Han threw the knife over.

pat--!

Cao Yuan let the wooden sword fall to the ground without catching it.

Instructor Han raised an eyebrow, his tone somewhat unfriendly, "What, are you looking down on me?"

Cao Yuan shook his head. "I can't hold a knife, not even a wooden one."

"I told you to pick it up, so you pick it up. Obey orders."

Cao Yuan sighed helplessly, bent down, and prepared to pick up the knife.

At the same time, the new recruits below the stage all retreated dozens of meters in unison. Except for Lin Shi and Lin Qiye, who did not retreat, they all looked at Instructor Han with the same sympathy as the others...

At this moment, Instructor Han also noticed the unusual behavior of the new recruits below the stage, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Turning around, I saw a scene I will never forget for the rest of my life.

Black flames shot up into the sky, and evil spirits raged.

In the center of the pitch-black flames, a shirtless boy, his body enveloped in black, malevolent flames, carrying a flaming wooden sword on his shoulder, slowly walked towards him with a ferocious expression.

I just wanted to teach you how to use a knife, and this is some kind of junk I've come up with...

Seeing the wooden sword flaming on Cao Yuan's shoulder, Instructor Han threw the wooden sword in his hand away!

Fuck you!

In his frenzied state, Cao Yuan didn't give Instructor Han time to react before he swung his sword. The wooden sword, wreathed in black flames, slashed straight at Instructor Han like a crescent moon.

Instructor Han narrowed his eyes slightly, his deep gaze seemingly able to see through Cao Yuan's movements in his frenzied state.

He rolled to the other side, successfully avoiding the crescent-shaped knife.

At the same time, he picked up the straight sword from the weapon rack with a backhand. With a soft sound, the sword was drawn, and he rolled to dodge Cao Yuan's slash.

After rolling over, Instructor Han turned around and slashed at Cao Yuan with his saber. The whole movement was smooth and fluid, perfectly seizing the moment when Cao Yuan had not yet withdrawn his strength after slashing.

However, Cao Yuan reacted extremely quickly. Just as Instructor Han was about to unleash his attack, Cao Yuan forcibly withdrew his strength and, in a way that defied the laws of inertia, flipped his body over and unleashed a backslash, forcing Instructor Han to switch from offense to defense.

clang--!

With a dull thud of swords clashing, Instructor Han was sent flying, crashing heavily to the floor, instantly creating several cracks in the floorboards.

Instructor Han coughed heavily a few times, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. "Damn it, if I could use the Forbidden Ruins, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state."
