Yakumo Feng woke up early the next morning. When he arrived at the main hall, he saw Suika and the others drinking.
Suika saw Yakumo Feng approach and said, 'Yo, little Feng, you're up so early. Why don't you sleep a little longer?'
Yakumo Feng walked forward, pulled out a tablecloth, and said, 'Cultivation cannot be lazy. Let's start after we eat. Who will train with me today?'
At this moment, Hoshiguma Yuugi walked up to Yakumo Feng, picked up a piece of roasted meat, and said, 'I'll train with you today. Don't worry, I won't go easy on you.'
Suika said, 'Today, Yuugi will train with you, tomorrow it's me, then Ibaraki, and finally Kinkara. The four of us will take turns training you. Hmph, you should be proud to have us, the Oni Kishin Four Devas, as your sparring partners.'
Yakumo Feng ate his meal and hummed in response to Suika.
After eating, Yuugi led them to an open space.
At this moment, Suika said, 'This is where we usually fight. You can cultivate here from now on.' After speaking, she walked to the side with Ibaraki Kasen and Kinkara, leaving only Hoshiguma Yuugi.
Yakumo Feng and Hoshiguma Yuugi each walked to a side, striking fighting poses.
Yakumo Feng projected a sword and stared intently at Hoshiguma Yuugi. Hoshiguma Yuugi, on the other hand, held her Yuugi Gourd in her right hand, adopting a casual stance.
Yakumo Feng knew that Hoshiguma Yuugi would only fight seriously when she put down her Yuugi Gourd.
Suddenly, Yakumo Feng charged forward, and the blade in his hand (damn it, let's call it a blade from now on. Those things don't look like swords at all) swung towards Hoshiguma Yuugi. Hoshiguma Yuugi smiled and simply raised her hand to block Yakumo Feng's blade. Her other hand then swung towards Yakumo Feng. Hoshiguma Yuugi knew this was sparring, primarily to help Yakumo Feng improve his strength, so she only used the strength of a high-level Yokai to fight him.
Yakumo Feng saw Hoshiguma Yuugi's fist rapidly approaching him. 'Boundary - Boundary of Speed and Slowness,' Yakumo Feng whispered. Then he quickly retreated.
Hoshiguma Yuugi suddenly felt a strange force appear on her body, making her extremely slow. Hoshiguma Yuugi struggled with force and broke free from that power. Hoshiguma Yuugi had fought Yakumo Yukari before and knew that this was the so-called power of Boundary.
Yakumo Feng was not surprised to see Hoshiguma Yuugi break free from his technique so quickly. 'Unnamed Divine Wind Style - Azure Dragon!' Yakumo Feng's sword qi transformed into an Azure Dragon and lunged towards Hoshiguma Yuugi.
Hoshiguma Yuugi saw it and directly threw a punch. Although she dispersed the Azure Dragon, Hoshiguma Yuugi also took two steps back.
Hoshiguma Yuugi looked at Yakumo Feng, smiled, and charged straight over, punching towards Yakumo Feng's chest. Yakumo Feng still used the Boundary of Speed and Slowness on Hoshiguma Yuugi's fist, sidestepped, and then, from bottom to top, diagonally slashed at Hoshiguma Yuugi with his blade.
Hoshiguma Yuugi immediately broke free from Yakumo Feng's Boundary power, then raised her hand to block Yakumo Feng's blade. She then quickly grabbed the blade, pulled it forward, and punched Yakumo Feng's abdomen.
Yakumo Feng saw his blade cut Hoshiguma Yuugi's hand, but it had no effect. Then he saw Hoshiguma Yuugi grab his blade. Before Yakumo Feng could react, he felt a pain in his abdomen. He released the blade in his hand and jumped away.
When Yakumo Feng's hand left the blade, the blade disappeared from Hoshiguma Yuugi's hand. Then Yakumo Feng projected another blade and looked at Hoshiguma Yuugi.
Hoshiguma Yuugi saw Yakumo Feng looking at her, smiled, and said, 'Feng, your reaction is not quick enough. If you had reacted after I grabbed your blade just now, you wouldn't have been hit.' After speaking, she rushed over, clenched her left hand into a fist, and punched Yakumo Feng. Yakumo Feng saw Hoshiguma Yuugi attacking, immediately used a Boundary of Speed and Slowness, and then raised his blade to block Hoshiguma Yuugi's fist.
Hoshiguma Yuugi quickly broke free from Yakumo Feng's technique, and punched the blade. Yakumo Feng held the blade and felt that Hoshiguma Yuugi's punch was not as powerful as he had imagined. He then felt something was wrong, and before he could react, he was kicked by Hoshiguma Yuugi.
Hoshiguma Yuugi said with a smile, "Feng, you have very little combat experience. You can't even see through a small feint. You still need to train more."
Yakumo Feng knew that he had almost no combat experience, which was why he sought out Suika and the others for battles.
Yakumo Feng looked at Hoshiguma Yuugi, saying, "Nameless Divine Wind Style - Azure Dragon."
Yakumo Feng swung his blade at Hoshiguma Yuugi. Hoshiguma Yuugi, without even looking, directly dispersed the Azure Dragon formed by the blade energy with a single punch.
When Hoshiguma Yuugi looked at Yakumo Feng again, Yakumo Feng had disappeared. At the same time, even Suika and the others who were watching nearby had vanished.
"Unnamed Divine Wind Style - Mirage."
It turned out that Yakumo Feng had used Mirage to pull her into an illusion when Hoshiguma Yuugi dispersed the Azure Dragon.
Suddenly, the scene before Hoshiguma Yuugi's eyes changed to a landscape full of cherry blossoms. At this point, Hoshiguma Yuugi knew she had fallen into an illusion.
Hoshiguma Yuugi smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to have such a trick, Feng, but did you think a mere illusion could trap me, ugh...."
Before she could finish, Hoshiguma Yuugi suddenly felt her body become very heavy, and all her strength seemed to have been drained away.
"Boundary - Boundary of Lightness and Heaviness" "Boundary - Boundary of Strength and Weakness"
After pulling Hoshiguma Yuugi into the illusion, Yakumo Feng quickly applied the power of two boundaries to her.
Despite this, Yakumo Feng still kept a close eye on Hoshiguma Yuugi. He knew that Hoshiguma Yuugi could not be defeated so easily.
As expected, Hoshiguma Yuugi suddenly burst forth with a powerful Mystic Power, which directly broke through the illusion.
At the same time, it also washed away the Boundary Power on Hoshiguma Yuugi's body.
After feeling the Boundary Power on her body while in the illusion, Hoshiguma Yuugi took a deep breath and instantly unleashed her Mystic Power.
The scene before Hoshiguma Yuugi's eyes changed, returning to the previous setting. The strange feeling on her body also disappeared.
Hoshiguma Yuugi looked at Yakumo Feng and said, "Not bad, Little Feng. With your current strength, ordinary high-level yokai are no match for you at all. But the warm-up is over; it's time to get serious now."
After speaking, Hoshiguma Yuugi instantly appeared in front of Yakumo Feng, delivering a heavy punch directly at him.
Yakumo Feng knew he couldn't dodge it. "Boundary - Fourfold Barrier" "Unnamed Divine Wind Style - Black Tortoise."
Yakumo Feng instantly set up a barrier around himself, then used the only defensive sword technique in the Unnamed Divine Wind Style, and a phantom of a Black Tortoise appeared on Yakumo Feng's body.
Hoshiguma Yuugi's heavy punch directly broke through Yakumo Feng's fourfold barrier and then heavily slammed into the Black Tortoise phantom.
When Hoshiguma Yuugi's punch was about to dissipate, the Black Tortoise phantom also shattered.
As the Black Tortoise phantom shattered, Yakumo Feng instantly jumped backward.
Hoshiguma Yuugi pursued relentlessly, appearing directly behind Yakumo Feng. "Monstrous Strength - Unstoppable."
Hoshiguma Yuugi directly punched Yakumo Feng in the back.
Upon seeing this, Yakumo Feng directly turned around and used his left hand to block Hoshiguma Yuugi's punch.
Hoshiguma Yuugi's punch heavily slammed into Yakumo Feng's left hand, then directly sent Yakumo Feng flying.
When Hoshiguma Yuugi's punch struck his left hand, Yakumo Feng knew his left hand was broken.
Yakumo Feng didn't even grunt. Then, he flew backward with the force of Hoshiguma Yuugi's punch.
When Yakumo Feng landed, his left hand had already recovered.
When Hoshiguma Yuugi saw Yakumo Feng recover, she immediately took a quick step, forming her hand into a blade.
"Monstrous Strength - Mountain Splitter."
Hoshiguma Yuugi raised her right hand high, her right hand infused with terrifying Mystic Power, then brought her hand-blade down on Yakumo Feng.
Yakumo Feng saw Hoshiguma Yuugi's attack and immediately raised the blade in his hand, preparing to withstand Hoshiguma Yuugi's move.
Not long after Hoshiguma Yuugi's hand-blade and Yakumo Feng's blade made contact, Yakumo Feng's blade broke, and then, with undiminished force, it cut a long wound on Yakumo Feng's body, from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.
Then, she kicked Yakumo Feng away.
After seeing his blade break, Yakumo Feng felt a sharp pain in front of him before he could react, then a pain in his abdomen, and he fell backward.
In just a blink of an eye, all of Yakumo Feng's injuries healed.
"Come out, I know you're fine. By the way, can you project a good blade? The one just now shattered with one hit."
Hoshiguma Yuugi, knowing Yakumo Feng's recovery ability, shouted without any worry.
After feeling his injuries heal, Yakumo Feng stood up. Then he closed his eyes.
Hoshiguma Yuugi saw Yakumo Feng close his eyes and was a little confused, but she still didn't make a move. After all, this was training, not a fight to the death. Otherwise, who would give him time? Of course, those brainless people who thought they were invincible were exceptions.
