Roar!
Roar!
The two dragon heads collided without any flourish, and the fighting aura exploded instantly. Long Yi took three consecutive steps back before he could barely stand steady. Looking forward, he saw that Rocky had been blown away without a doubt, lying on the ground, desperately trying to stand up, but his head was dizzy, and his body was completely unresponsive.
"Failed to work on me the first time, and you still want to use it again? Even though I'm not a Saint Warrior, I know that the same move won't work on me twice."
Long Yi spoke words that no one understood, but the mocking tone was very clear.
The residual shock of the dragon fighting aura still flowed in his hands, and Long Yi's hands trembled slightly, uncontrollably. This was the first time he had successfully used a fighting aura technique, and his hands were still not used to it. However, this new experience still made him incredibly excited.
Fighting aura techniques were so powerful!
Long Yi decided to start training on the fourth day after his birth and felt the dragon fighting aura in his body on the tenth day. As a giant, he naturally knew how to train. Giants would unlock their training knowledge as they grew older, and he could access the inherited knowledge in his soul as if he were browsing a library, searching for what he needed.
Unfortunately, at his age, he was still a minor in the giant race and could not learn the fighting aura techniques of the giants. Otherwise, this battle would have been a sure win.
The reverse derivation of fighting aura techniques was a unique skill that Long Yi created by combining his current knowledge of the giants with his knowledge from his previous life.
Just as water boils at 100 degrees Celsius under standard atmospheric pressure, all effects of fighting aura techniques must be achieved through a certain combination of fighting aura. Therefore, as long as the style of the fighting aura technique was observed and precisely deduced, it was easy to obtain the method of performing the technique.
Of course, the main reason Long Yi succeeded was that the Dragon Roar Fist was the most basic of fighting aura techniques, extremely simple.
Even so, it was enough to scare a group of people, or rather, anger a group of people.
"Damn it!"
The five people around felt insulted and wanted to attack together.
"Enough! Stop it all!"
The second-year instructor finally couldn't stand it and intervened to stop the duel.
"First-year Long Yi wins, adding six credits. You seven, each lose six credits! The duel is over!"
A light flashed, and Long Yi happily saw his credits increase.
"What! Instructor, this is unfair! We haven't even fought, how can you declare us the losers!"
"Exactly! Instructor! This kid just got lucky!"
"Shut up! You idiots, you've been challenging people since this morning and haven't won a single fight. Do you still have the nerve to talk about fairness?"
Hearing their words, the second-year instructor's face flushed with embarrassment.
"Actually, I think it's quite fair," Long Yi said. "You saw it too, these people are so weak. If they don't attack together, they're no match for me. Why don't you let them attack together, or you could call a few more people. I can take on ten!"
Long Yi stretched his arms, feeling that his stamina was still good, and he hadn't used up much of his dragon fighting aura. He should be able to have another good fight.
"Enough! I've made my judgment. You won, and you can leave! According to the school rules, you can't challenge again for three days. Now, leave the second-year training ground immediately!"
The second-year instructor looked at the first-year instructor's face, speaking each word clearly. At this moment, his heart was bleeding. As a second-year instructor, he naturally felt superior to the first-year instructor, and he always looked down on the other. But this time, the other guy had somehow found such a freak of a kid who could fight so well right after entering the school!
As the winner, Long Yi was quite calm. However, Ailin's gaze towards Long Yi changed. She noticed that at the beginning, Long Yi really didn't understand the Dragon Roar Fist!
Ailin, as a dragon knight of the Silver Dragon, naturally had no dragon fighting aura in her body, and for some reason, she couldn't use magic. However, she had a strange talent: she could easily discern a person's fighting aura or magic level and even sense whether someone was using a fighting aura technique for the first time.
In Ailin's eyes, Long Yi was using a fighting aura technique for the first time!
Fighting aura techniques were a key focus of study starting from the second year, and the cultivation of fighting aura techniques might accompany a dragon knight for life! And Long Yi had learned his opponent's fighting aura technique just through battle. This was simply unbelievable!
What did this mean? It meant that Long Yi's understanding of fighting aura far exceeded everyone here! He could reverse-engineer already performed fighting aura techniques! Oh, this person was not only strong in muscle but also in mind! He didn't look as stupid as he seemed! To deduce an opponent's fighting aura technique while fighting, how strong and intelligent must he be!
The first-year instructor had never felt so pleased. Looking at Long Yi, he nodded inwardly. Yes, this was the kind of warrior he liked! A warrior should be like this!
"Long Yi has brought honor to the class, adding six more credits! The other four, for team spirit, each get three credits!"
The instructor, in a great mood, directly added points to everyone.
Wesley's eyes widened in excitement, disbelief. He never expected that just by watching Long Yi fight, he would get points! Long Yi was simply a credit machine! He firmly decided to stick with Long Yi. Not for anything else, but because credits were so hard to come by in the Dragon Knight Academy! And in this short time, Long Yi had already earned eighteen points!
In the Dragon Knight Academy, although there were grades, it wasn't necessary to wait a year to advance. In fact, as long as one reached sixty points, they could graduate from the first year and directly advance to the second year!
To earn credits, besides internal exams, external missions, and bringing honor to the class, the only other way was through battles. Winning a battle within the same grade earned three points, while losing deducted three points. For cross-grade challenges, each additional grade added three points to the win, and also deducted three points for a loss.
If one had enough credits, they could even exchange for things in the mysterious Dragon God Arena!
Medicine, equipment, and even fighting aura techniques could be exchanged for credits!
Judging by this, Long Yi should have no opponents in the first year, and the second-year leader hasn't made a move yet. It's unknown whether Long Yi can keep winning!
Contrary to Wesley's excitement, the fat and thin guys looked very unhappy. They considered themselves extremely excellent and wanted to establish authority in the class. But they never expected Long Yi to suddenly intervene. What was even more infuriating was that they had even benefited from it!
Looking at the three credits on his bracelet, the fat guy felt extremely uncomfortable. But he didn't have the courage to refuse, as he also understood the importance of credits! In the academy, credits were even more important than gold coins! After all, all resources in the academy could only be exchanged for credits!
The first-year instructor, in a great mood due to the victory, gave everyone a break, allowing them to freely use the rest of the afternoon. Long Yi took this opportunity to explore the academy city with Wesley and Ailin.
The Academy City, as the name suggests, was a huge city built around the Dragon Knight Academy. It was adjacent to the imperial capital and could be considered the most prosperous city in the entire White Dragon Empire outside the capital. People here included not only humans but also elves, dwarves, orcs, and even giants.
However, compared to other races, giants rarely interacted with humans. Whenever a giant appeared, it was usually for some significant event. After all, giants were a race that served the divine dragons, theoretically ranking even higher than dragons. They had no demands from humans and thus had little interaction.
At this moment, Long Yi, also a giant, had no sense of superiority and was marveling at the city's prosperity.
Wesley, the know-it-all, served as a guide for Long Yi and Ailin. He had already gathered all the information about the entire academy city long ago. Now, walking on the streets, he was very familiar with everything.
"Speaking of food, if you want to taste some flavors, there are some good restaurants in these alleys."
"And if you're talking about equipment, the big equipment stores in the city are not bad, but the prices are too high. In the east, there are a few dwarf blacksmith shops. Dwarves are naturally skilled, and some famous equipment stores get their supplies from them, but the owners are hard to deal with. If you have good drinking capacity, you can try to compete."
"Ah, right, in the magic item stores, you can not only buy magic items but also have enchanters enchant your equipment, though the prices are not cheap."
"See that exotic-style house? That's an elf shop, specializing in items made by the elves. There are elf swords and accessories. However, elves are even harder to communicate with than dwarves, and the prices are high."
Wesley explained along the way, his information so rich that he could even tell who owned a stray dog that suddenly ran down the street, how long it had been there, and when it had been sick.
