Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest

```

"Ahem." Qi Changping, who was guarding the door, could no longer bear to listen and hurried out to offer a remedy, saying, "Do you want me to arrange for a few people to discretely spread some clarifications to them..."

"No need." Li Weiguo immediately vetoed, "We won this time! Since when does the winner have to proactively explain to the loser? If the Dingbei Army is unhappy, let Old Yang properly train his men, and they can win it back next time!"

"Yes." Qi Changping immediately replied.

Li Weiguo rubbed his hands together in satisfaction and said with a chuckle:

"They all came to ask me just now, saying that your Zhendong Army's Yan Yu is very adept at using the Shifting Technique to charge, then abruptly stopping with the Cloud Ascension Technique once in close range, before switching to other Attack Spell Techniques. How exactly did you manage to do that?"

"Oh." Yan Yu pondered for a moment before answering, "The operation is actually quite simple: First, I charge with the Shifting Technique, then I immediately interrupt it once I'm in close range, and rapidly use the Cloud Ascension Technique to brake..."

Just as he was about to repeat the general's question as his own reply, anticipating this, Qi Changping quickly interrupted him, saying:

"It's not the process they're asking about! It's why others can't do it, but you can. Is there any trick to it?"

"There's no trick," Yan Yu responded, "just lots of practice."

Li Weiguo pondered for a while, then asked Qi Changping:

"Do we have any training programs for this?"

Qi Changping was also speechless. How do you practice that? Charging at a target with the Shifting Technique and abruptly stopping the spell when close, then quickly switching to the Cloud Ascension Technique for braking?

What if you can't brake in time? Wouldn't you just crash headfirst into the target? Unless everybody wore safety gear and replaced the target with something like a cushion...

Old Han had indeed proposed a similar plan before, but the school leadership considered it too ambitious.

Currently, the students hadn't even mastered the Shifting Technique on its own, and they hadn't even started learning the Cloud Ascension Technique. To advance training content to quickly switch between Shifting Technique and Cloud Ascension Technique was simply impractical!

Of course, for the higher-ups, you might fail to achieve some plans, but you have to think of them.

Failure might be due to objective environmental factors, but not thinking of it is a sign of your lack of ability.

"Yes, we do." After thinking it through, Qi Changping quickly brought forward Han Zaixian's plan and described it in detail.

"Hmm." Li Weiguo nodded in approval, "The Shifting Technique and Cloud Ascension Technique indeed need to be practiced together. You've also seen Yan Yu's performance these past few days. The acceleration of the Shifting Technique and the emergency braking of the Cloud Ascension Technique, when skillfully combined, provide the high maneuverability that has strategic value."

"Without coordination, the Shifting Technique alone isn't flexible enough, and the speed of the Cloud Ascension Technique isn't fast enough to be significant."

"The leader is wise." Yan Yu hastily flattered.

Look at that strategic insight! How else could he be the chief commander? What the hell is up with the school leadership, always concerned about the teaching schedule... Do they really think they're running a school?

Qi Changping was speechless by his side. So turns out this kid does know how to butter someone up, just chooses his moments!

When the leader agrees with your opinion, you flatter him! What if the leader disagrees, would you silently curse him then?

...Forget it, forget it, you've just won a victory, whatever you say is right.

"You don't need to flatter me, it's your own prowess that's commendable," Li Weiguo pointed at Yan Yu, saying jovially, "If it weren't for watching your match, I wouldn't have realized this point."

"Little Qi, after we return, make sure the related training facilities are set up quickly." He then turned and instructed, "If there are any problems, discuss them more with Student Yan Yu."

"Yes." Qi Changping quickly complied.

————————

The four-institute exchange competition concluded.

The Zhendong Army won three consecutive matches, securing first place, leaving Li Weiguo naturally very satisfied.

Yan Yu was also happy because with Li Weiguo's support, the school's teaching plan was finally going to change.

From his experience in a past life, practicing the Shifting Technique, Cloud Ascension Technique, and Wall-Penetration Technique separately was a sheer waste of time.

Correcting to the right instructional approach sooner would lead to faster growth in the overall strength of cultivators in the country, ensuring better preparedness for future international changes.

Returning to his hotel room, Yan Yu saw Zhao Yuanzhen lying on the bed watching TV, teasing as she watched:

"That's right, that's the male lead, with the pretty-boy makeup, right? At first, I even thought he was the female supporting character."

```

It's not dual-cultivation time, why did you come to my room? Yan Yu's face immediately darkened. Hmm, wait... who is she talking to?

"Ha! Crap, really acts like a woman," a carefree female voice replied, "Can't they find a manly man for the domestic TV dramas these days?"

"Manliness requires charisma, which really tests an actor's skills," Zhao Yuanzhen grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and started munching, "Playing a pretty boy doesn't need charisma— just slap on some makeup... oh, Yan Yu's back."

With an expressionless face, Yan Yu walked into the room, only to see the blonde-haired Anna sitting on the other side of the bed, chatting and cracking seeds with Zhao Yuanzhen—this was a women-specific "wine and chatter" affair.

When did you two become so close? No, I should ask when did the two of you meet?

His eye twitched for a moment before he finally asked:

"Who allowed you to spit sunflower seed shells on my bed?"

"What's the big deal?" Zhao Yuanzhen said indifferently, "One Cleaning Spell and it's done, right?"

"How about I spit in your face and then give you a Cleaning Spell, huh?" Yan Yu asked with a hint of menace.

"That..." Anna stood up a bit nervously, cautiously saying, "Sister Zhao said she could teach me spells, so she called me over."

"What spells could she possibly teach you..." Yan Yu let out an involuntary retort, then abruptly felt something was off.

Although this Demonic Sect Enchantress had not yet recovered her cultivation, when it came to the number of spells she mastered, probably no one in the world could compare with her except for Mei Yingxue.

And if you limit the spells to "dark and evil techniques," even Mei Yingxue would have to admit defeat.

If she were to teach Anna, couldn't that result in a new Demonic Sect Enchantress?

But thinking about it carefully, even if Anna was taught, it would be Siberia that got plagued, not our Lu Country.

In other words, even without Anna, there'd be plenty of werewolves and vampires over there causing trouble just the same, right?

It'd be better to teach her various self-defense techniques to prevent her from being bullied over there.

"That's a good idea," Yan Yu pondered and said, "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask her or me."

Great! Zhao Yuanzhen was also secretly delighted.

She suspected that this Anna was the reincarnation of some great being, anticipated by Yan Yu's master, which was why he was sent from afar just to form a good karma with her.

Now it seemed she had successfully entered the game. In the future when Anna encounters a turning point and successfully breaks free from her shackles and achieves enlightenment, wouldn't she also be able to bask in some of that fortune?

Hmph hmph hmph, hehehe, hahaha, Yan Yu, you sneaky thief! Bet you didn't see that I'm leeching off your good fortune!

If one day I turn the tables and become the master, I will make you suffer all the humiliations you've inflicted upon me, tit for tat!

As she was silently reveling, she overheard Yan Yu speaking to Anna again:

"But she can only teach you some basics at most. You might as well learn from me," he said.

"What the!" Zhao Yuanzhen immediately protested, "I am also... I'm also very impressive, okay?"

"Can you list a hundred combination battle tactics from the Three Arts and Five Spells?" Yan Yu asked with disdain.

Zhao Yuanzhen was immediately stuck. Three Arts and Five Spells... who would bother studying them!

Shifting Technique is inferior to Sword Flight, Cloud Ascension Technique is not as good as the Immortals' stepping methods, and the Five Elemental True Character Curse has better spells that can replace it. These are just rudimentary exercises that cultivator couples teach their kids—who would take the effort to delve deeply into them!

Seeing that Zhao Yuanzhen was lost for words, Anna sensed the truth in Yan Yu's claim and asked somewhat embarrassingly:

"Would privately teaching me these violate any confidentiality regulations?"

"Absolutely," Yan Yu said cheerfully, "so if you get caught, don't rat me out."

He was just joking, but for some reason, Anna took it seriously and earnestly said:

"Even if I die, I will not betray you."

Yan Yu: ......

They say the Eclipse Queen is brutal and merciless, but who would have thought she could be so loyal and righteous!
