Chapter 152 - 152: Tracing
“Gulu!”
I want to practice combined battle skills!
After arriving back at the hotel by cable car, Dan Bao shouts with fighting spirit.
On the way back, Du Weiwei shared all her understandings of combined battle skills in order to help Qin Lang improve before the competition and increase his chances in the upcoming matches.
With Dan Bao’s Flavor Value, if he could master a powerful combined combat skill, he could certainly bring out stronger power.
“Okay.” Qin Lang rubbed Dan Bao’s head.
“According to Du Weiwei, a combined battle skill is not as simple as a combination of two battle skills. It requires an understanding of the two battle skills, and then merging these understandings together to create a new combination skill.”
“Only in this way that a combination skill can achieve an effect greater than the sum of its parts.”
“You have mastered the ‘Full Firepower’ skill very proficiently, you must have your own understanding of it, right?”
“Gulu!”
Dan Bao nodded earnestly.
Now he can easily gather the flame to the desired degree and adjust the temperature and direction of the flame freely, as if it were his arm.
More importantly, in the continuous training, he felt that it was much easier to control the flame compared to before. Many things that required careful control can now be achieved with a thought. This must be the combat skill insight Qin Lang was talking about.
“In that case, what we need to train next is Thought Waves.” Qin Lang spoke solemnly, “Thought Waves is your second combat skill, and you haven’t trained it for a long time.”
“If you can also have some insights into Thought Waves, I think your combined combat skill may be born.”
“I checked, and the training of Thought Waves mainly starts from two directions.” Qin Lang waved his lit-up phone, obviously prepared, “The first direction is divided attention control.”
“Controlling multiple targets with Thought Power, and making these targets show different movements, is a common training method for Thought Waves.”
“The second direction, besides that, is the degree of precision.”
“Using Thought Waves to achieve smaller scale and more flexible control is also a reflection of the proficiency of Thought Waves.”
“Chaka!”
Crack the crab!
Spicy suddenly recalled the process of Dan Bao using Thought Waves to crack the crab and interjected a sentence at this moment.
“That’s right, cracking crab is a way to train precision.” Qin Lang nodded, “and divided attention control can be trained by doing other operations while cracking the crab.”
Speaking of which, the issue goes back to cooking.
“I used points to exchange for Hairy Crab, it’ll be delivered to the hotel soon.”
“We’ll make crab roe fried rice tonight, and you’ll be in charge of handling the crab.”
“Gulu!”
With anticipation in his eyes, Dan Bao quickly nodded.
He was overjoyed to have another chance to devour crabs and train Thought Waves at the same time!
…Several hours later…
“Wow!”
Dragging Du Weiwei to the dining table, Qi Xiaoyu stared wide-eyed at the big bowl of crab powder in the centre of the table.
Feeling the fragrant crab scent hitting her face, she swallowed hard, “What is this delicious dish?”
“Rice with crab roe.” Qin Lang dished out a large bowl of rice, mixed in the crab roe, and handed it to Dan Bao, who was a little tired and dazed from picking apart dozens of crabs. “Everyone worked hard during the selection fights these past two days. Let me make you something delicious.”
Qi Xiaoyu quickly sat down, followed Qin Lang’s manner of serving rice with crab roe, and then took a spoonful into her mouth.
Feeling the distinct and full-bodied texture of the rice wrapped in the fragrance of crab oil, along with the wonderful taste of crab meat and crab roe filling the spaces between the grains of rice, her face immediately turned slightly intoxicated.
“This is too blissful!”
Du Weiwei, who was also experiencing this crab feast for the first time, nodded in agreement.
Crabs were, of course, included among the aqua-culture products abundant in Dongxia City.
But it was her first time eating such a delicious crab.
Normally a lady with refined table manners, she couldn’t resist speeding up her eating pace.
On the other side, Zhao Chen, silent throughout, saw his half bowl of rice disappearing fast.
Only after serving a bowl to a fellow diner, Qin Lang started enjoying the meal leisurely.
The other three also summoned their own Food Spirits and joined in the feast.
After finishing the meal, Qi Xiaoyu put down her chopsticks, rubbed her stomach, and expressed a look of contentment.
Then, she turned to look at the others, “What are your plans for the next three days?”
“I plan to find suitable opponents for a few Spirit Battles while the contestants from other cities are still here.” Chunchen put down his chopsticks, revealing a burning desire for battle. “I’ve got my eye on several contestants who got eliminated from the selection fights. I can challenge them one by one over the next three days.”
“Well, they’re really unfortunate to be targeted by you.” Qi Xiaoyu couldn’t help but make a teasing remark, then she turned to Du Weiwei, “Weiwei, what about you?”
“My youth training competition has ended, so the next three days will be rare relaxation time.” Du Weiwei smiled, “This is my first time in Bai Lu Mountain City, so naturally, I want to explore more.”
“Once I get back to Dongxia City, I’ll have to start working hard.”
“I’ll go shopping with you then!” Qi Xiaoyu said happily, linking arms with Du Weiwei.
Then, all three turned to look at Qin Lang.
“For the next three days, I’ll have Dan Bao and Spicy do some targeted special training to get stronger before facing Zhu Quan.” Qin Lang put down his chopsticks, “Also, I plan to visit Luxing Garden.”
“Luxing Garden?” Du Weiwei and the other two looked puzzled.
“Liu Tianchen mentioned before that the second-level Food Recommender in Bai Lu Mountain City, Mrs. Yunqi, lists a second-level Food Recommender Badge as a requirement for her test.”
“So, having the Distant Light Badge already, I don’t have to participate in Bai Lu Mountain City’s cooking competition. I can try to get her second-level Food Recommender Badge.”
“Given this opportunity, I naturally want to grasp it, at least to give it a try.” Qin Lang grinned, “And Luxing Garden is where Mrs. Yunqi resides and holds her tests.”
“Apparently, it’s a beautiful garden full of ginkgo trees and often home to the spirits of Bai Lu Mountain – the white deer.”
“During our cable car ride up the mountain, I don’t recall seeing such a garden, do you?” Du Weiwei recalled and asked.
“You wouldn’t see it from this side of the mountain, as Luxing Garden lies on the other side of Bai Lu Mountain.” Qin Lang shook his head, “Anyway, I plan to visit there tomorrow.”
“If 1 can pass the test directly, that would be nice. If not, I can set aside some preparation time to attempt the test a second time.”
Qin Lang had never tried a second-level Food Recommender test, but he assumed that it would be more difficult than the first-level tests he had previously attempted.
So right now, he wasn’t sure if he would be able to pass.
