This is really awkward, Huoye was surprised, Wutong was speechless. The so-called secret technique he mentioned turned out to be flicking foreheads, both ended up with bumps on their heads.

The main reason is still the movement technique. Huoye found it difficult to clearly see Feng Yi's actions, barely catching the brief moment at the start of his movement.

'Damn it, I still underestimated him. This person has no flaws; I can't find an opportunity to strike.'

Huoye overturned all his plans, initially intending to observe and find an opening to move, but the fact was, no matter where or how he positioned himself, Feng Yi was seamless in his stance.

'If I launch a surprise attack from 90 degrees in front of Feng Yi's line of sight, he will definitely catch it immediately. If I choose to strike from behind, the subtle sounds of the branches and leaves in the forest will alert him. This maple forest, about 300 meters long, seems advantageous for hiding, but for a master like him, it's merely an intentional flaw left open.

With my current power, it's impossible to cover 300 meters in an instant. It seems I have to cooperate with that guy.'

Thinking of this, Huoye cast a glance at Zhen and extended five fingers.

'Five seconds huh...'

Zhen hesitated slightly, finally nodding. With her ability, she might just manage to control the opponent for 5 seconds with illusions, but she couldn't guarantee it for sure.

At the very least, she can limit Teacher Wutong's maximum time to around seven seconds, which already counts as overpowering above her rank. After all, she is only at Rank 3, and although Illusion Technique does not require Body Technique as a foundational medium, generally speaking, both physical strength and spirit are interdependent. Therefore, at 15, it's difficult for her to use superpowers to suppress 24-year-old Wutong for long. In a life-and-death battle, Wutong's mental resistance might be stronger, shortening the suppression time even further.

But, at this point, there's nothing to worry about. Huoye is one of the few geniuses from Alpha Star, who also trained in the Five Elements Super Abilities at Yanhuang Soul. Zhen believed that during the short time she suppressed the opponent, Huoye would certainly devise a proper combat plan, which is why Zhen nodded.

"Zhen, now!"

Huoye roared, following up with a quick dash, charging straight at Feng Yi without any plan to conceal his form.

"Ah, this..."

Although Feng Yi's close-range level was visible earlier, little Zhen hesitated initially, then her spiritual power suddenly exploded into strong pressure.

At the same time, Feng Yi hesitated slightly, sensing an extremely faint spiritual energy coming toward him. If he had to describe it, it felt somewhat similar to the static electric field against hairs, and then... there was no other sensation.

Hmm, this spiritual suppression was alright, just a bit weak, didn't even require expelling air, because it couldn't even break through his body's magnetic field — Feng Yi decided to play along. He had fought more battles than these youngsters had eaten salt; there was no need to be serious.

'Based on that kid's advance charge speed, he can reach me in 6 seconds, but I can't rule out an instantaneous acceleration attack. I'll have to respond as needed, but I must make it look convincing; truly a challenging day.'

Steeping in thought, Feng Yi didn't move at all, as if he were truly hypnotized by spiritual power.

Observing from a god's-eye view, Feng Yi easily noticed the girl's spiritual power spreading all around him, while active microscopic particles depicted another scene through the Third Rhythm perception — that scene was his own body deeply stuck in a swamp, unable to move, quite an interesting ability.

"You're finished!"

As Huoye spoke, he shot straight towards Feng Yi, but just as Feng Yi reached out to grab, a smile curled on Huoye's lips, his hands rapidly formed signs as if creating some kind of seal.

Huoye's finger seals changed rapidly, naturally unable to escape Feng Yi's sharp eyes, and at that moment, Feng Yi was secretly surprised too!

One must be on guard against forming seals. Feng Yi had dealt with many hermit lineages before, and he particularly disliked such mysterious secret techniques. Merely mentioning Mengdie could control with no less than three attributes: Wood Escape, Water Escape, and Gold Escape, corresponding to the Five Elements of Bagua — Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth. Nangong Qi was even more notable with his Golden Eye Technique; Feng Yi had witnessed its power and had to be cautious.

"Earth Escape, Dust Shrouding Technique."

In the instant Huoye formed the seal and spoke, the sand and stones on the ground seemed to be imbued with life, instantly rising and covering Feng Yi's area, making it difficult for him to open his eyes.

"Hmph, got you."

Huoye smiled; he could sense Feng Yi's position through Earth Escape, while Feng Yi, trapped in Earth Escape, couldn't sense him. In reality, Huoye's ambush was false, as was asking Zhen to suppress him; it was all to prevent Feng Yi from counterattacking too fast. So he approached proactively to use Earth Escape to trap him, the subsequent actions being entirely up to him to move in closely?

Snap!

Huoye hadn't even landed when his ankle was suddenly grabbed, and he was pulled sideways down from mid-air by Feng Yi, landing heavily on the ground with a thud.

"What!?"

The dust gradually cleared; Huoye stood up with difficulty, "You shouldn't have been able to detect me."

Feng Yi pointed at himself, "I'm wearing a Combat Power Tester helmet, easily identifying your power fluctuations."

Everyone was collectively speechless, Huoye calculated everything but overlooked the blatant cheating tool right in front of him, "Damn it, I don't acknowledge this victory."

"Would you say that to an enemy on the battlefield? Besides, step back and say, isn't everyone in the game a Mental Ability User? I can easily sense your position — and that girl over there, don't think I don't know you're setting a trap."

Hearing this, little Zhen immediately surrendered, sighing like a deflated balloon. She jumped down obediently, discarding the unfinished ropes, "He truly is a Mental Ability User, Huoye, he wasn't lying."

"What!?"

Hearing this, Huoye finally dropped the topic, glaring coldly at Feng Yi for a moment, "Please teach me to fight, you actually are Feng Yi, aren't you?"

Everyone was taken aback again, even the silent Wutong suddenly felt a strange sensation, hey, I'm your guiding teacher, don't ignore me.

Feng Yi said, "You shouldn't seek me, but look for your guiding teacher."

"No, I want to become strong, quickly strong, and then seek revenge against the Titan Elf Clan."

"Revenge?"

"Yes, revenge; my brother died in the battle two weeks ago."

"What does this have to do with revenge?"

"The connection is huge, isn't it? From what I know, humans might engage in a no-holds-barred peaceful confrontation with the Titan Elf Clan in the future."

This... isn't impossible. High-level discussions among various nations are in the preparation phase. How does he know?

Feng Yi didn't dwell on this topic; instead, he told Huoye that currently he had no means or chance for revenge. Any Fairy Warrior could easily dispose of him, as ranking systems are rigorous. Talk about revenge after graduation; at least get to the level where you can contend with Teacher Wutong, achieving First-Order strength.

As for why, the reason is simple: any Fairy Warrior randomly selected could possess strength comparable to First-Order, and they can fly. Even against First-Order humans, they hold a significant advantage, not to mention against you.
