Chapter 35

"How about it, Zhi Xi, did you see everything?"

When the match between Allen and Kida was completely over, and the audience in the stands began to leave, Yun Gu finally asked his disciple sitting beside him.

Zhi Xi hurriedly nodded seriously: "Yes! Master! I saw it! He is indeed very strong! I'm afraid he didn't even use ten percent of his strength when he fought me!"

"Then did you clearly see the abilities he used in the battle?" Yun Gu asked again.

"Um! He used his aura to enhance the weapon in his hand!" Zhi Xi answered without hesitation.

"Is that all?" Yun Gu was clearly unsatisfied with this answer.

"Is there more? Do you mean the Nen beast that looked like a dragon?" Zhi Xi's tone carried a hint of uncertainty.

"No! I'm referring to the sword in his hand! Do you think it was materialized using Nen, or did it already exist and was summoned through another Nen ability?"

As he said this, Yun Gu turned and stared at the boy beside him with an extremely sharp gaze.

Clearly, he had used "Concentration" throughout the entire battle, so he saw very clearly that there was no sign of aura activation when DK's sword appeared. He intended to use this opportunity to teach his disciple a lesson.

But for Zhi Xi, who had only recently come into contact with Nen, this was clearly beyond his capabilities. His brows knitted together as he thought hard, and finally, with a pained expression, he shook his head: "I'm sorry, Master, I don't know."

Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Yun Gu's face. He gently patted his disciple's head and said, "See, this is the biggest difference between you and that young man named Allen. It's not just a matter of simple quantifiable things like strength, agility, constitution, and aura capacity, but the wisdom displayed in battle. He has already learned to mislead others and hide his true abilities. In fact, that sword was not materialized; it was summoned through another unknown power."

"Battle... wisdom?" Zhi Xi was undoubtedly hearing this unfamiliar term for the first time.

"Exactly! Battle wisdom! You need to understand that in the world of Nen, everyone's abilities are different, and can even be said to be infinitely varied. When the strength of both sides is similar and neither knows the other's Nen ability, who do you think has a higher chance of winning?" Yun Gu posed a hypothetical question.

"Is it... the one with more experience?" Zhi Xi blinked his eyes in confusion.

For a boy not yet twelve years old, this question was indeed too complex and difficult.

Yun Gu smiled without confirming or denying: "Experience is indeed an important part. But in battles between Nen users, the role of experience is actually limited, especially when you don't know the other person's ability. At such times, the one who is better at deceiving the opponent and hiding their own abilities will firmly grasp the initiative. So I'm teaching you a key point: never easily reveal your trump card in battle."

"Understood! I will take Allen as my goal and work hard!" Zhi Xi shouted with great energy.

"Ha ha ha ha! That's the spirit! Let's go, let's double today's training!" Yun Gu laughed and stood up.

"Eh? Double... double!!!"

Zhi Xi's face immediately showed shock and despair, his eyes looking at Yun Gu as if he were a demon.

...

At the same time, back in his room, Allen had already made an unbreakable contract with the Red Dragon and then looked up, asking very seriously, "Are you ready?"

"Of course! My fists are already starving!" The martial artist responded excitedly.

"Very good! Then... Teleport!"

As soon as he finished speaking!

The two instantly disappeared from their original location and suddenly appeared in a place that looked like a medieval courtyard.

Dungeon: Blood Monastery — Library

Looking at the incredibly realistic buildings, decorations, and the vividly lifelike people in the distance, Baudelot couldn't help but exclaim, "Unbelievable! This... This is also something Nen can create? Nen is truly an incredible and wondrous power!"

"Remember! You must not reveal a single word about this to anyone, or you will be immediately devoured by the Red Dragon." Allen warned again, not tired of repeating himself.

Regarding the matter of bringing someone into the dungeon, he had considered it for a long time and ultimately decided to trust the character of this martial artist.

After all, the other party had entrusted his life to him, and as a return, he naturally had to share this almost cheating-like training paradise.

Otherwise, at the rate of Allen's current growth, no matter how hard Baudelot tried, he would never be able to keep up and would only gradually lose his motivation in a constant state of frustration.

"Understood! Please rest assured, I will keep this secret even if it costs me my life. Now, can I start fighting those enemies?"

The straightforward Baudelot gave his assurance without hesitation and cast his gaze toward the elites of the Blood Monastery in the distance, becoming abnormally excited.

"Go ahead! Remember to be careful. If you encounter danger, run to the door as quickly as possible, and I will be here to back you up."

After saying this, Allen no longer paid attention to Baudelot and instead used the power of the Red Dragon to summon Kida's Nen ability — "Invisible Left Arm," planning to further develop it on this basis.

In his view, this ability was truly a versatile weapon in the truest sense, even with powerful control attributes.

Especially after Kida's final Constraint and Oath enhancement, it gained the characteristic of instant movement. The next step was to combine it with Materialization and Enhancement, turning the originally invisible hand into a visible one, thereby significantly increasing its power and destructive force.

On the other side, Baudelot, having received permission, let out a loud cry and charged directly at the nearest enemy, beginning his practical training.

Although he had not yet learned advanced techniques like Hardening and Enhancing to increase his attack power, relying on the martial artist's body tempered through countless battles, he quickly cleared the waves of enemies at the entrance and officially entered the inner courtyard.

It must be said that in certain aspects, Enhancement users are truly blessed. With a little training, they can immediately burst with impressive combat power.

Soon, after understanding the strength of the enemies and himself, Baudelot was no longer satisfied with dealing with just two or three enemies at a time. Instead, he took on more to train his reaction speed and dodging ability.

For a while, the entire Blood Monastery Library echoed with the shouts he made while swinging his fists.

There was no way around it; the personality of Enhancement users is like that.

They don't care about things like shame, doing whatever makes them feel good. Some even shout the names of their moves during battles to increase the power of their "special moves."

Perhaps, this can also be categorized as a kind of Oath and Constraint, increasing the power of "special moves" through shouting and energy buildup.

In this immersive and incredibly realistic battle, Baudelot's understanding of Nen deepened more and more. In the end, under the threat of the BOSS's magic attacks, he unconsciously used some Hardening and Enhancing techniques, successfully clearing the Blood Library.
