Chapter 8, Psychological Deterrence

Do not kill me, do not kill me

However, overall it appears that

Liu Shao, I did not, it was just that in that situation, even if I had acted...

Pah

The student who was kicked by Wang Ting trembled inwardly, and the fear in his eyes lingered for a long time.

Upon seeing Leiming flee, Wang Shan and another student simultaneously began to curse. Wang Shan, who had sustained a sword wound, felt the pain in his hand intensify due to the shouting, causing his face to turn pale. Large beads of cold sweat continuously slid down from his forehead

Upon seeing Wang Ting depart, Liu Shangyuan, whose legs had already turned weak, seemed to lose all his strength in an instant, unable to steady himself any longer, and collapsed completely onto the ground.

A small lesson: if I discover you speaking disrespectfully again next time, or if you engage in any covert actions, you will not leave my sight alive

Wang Shan's words were not yet finished when Liu Shangyuan suddenly turned his head, glaring fiercely at him: "Have you killed someone? This little beast has killed someone, but have I, Liu Shangyuan, not? This matter is far from over! How dare he harm me, a lowly commoner? He must die! He absolutely must die! Even the Xi family of B Shui City cannot protect him..." How dare he harm me, a lowly commoner? He must die! He absolutely must die! Even the Xi family of B Shui City cannot protect him...

Go back, go back, we are going back, immediate treatment

Get lost! Leave me alone!

However, he came specifically to practice his agility. When encountering trees, he must dodge them at the fastest speed possible in order to achieve the goal of his training. If he can clearly distinguish each tree and evade them calmly, how can he attain the desired training effect

No, no, no... there is none, none at all, I absolutely do not...

Wang Ting uttered a word, his gaze sweeping over Wang Shan and another student. Soon, his figure vanished back into the darkness

He also needs to practice his body techniques and footwork in preparation to confront Gongsun Su, a mid-level swordsman

Leiming glanced at Liu Shangyuan, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately lacked the courage to endure Liu Shangyuan's wrath here, quickly turning and fleeing the forest.

Wang Ting spoke without paying any attention to the four individuals in panic, directly heading into the depths of the forest

Monster, the moment he stepped out from that darkness, it was as if I beheld a deity of evil descending. That kind of oppression tightly bound my spirit, and the weight bore down on my soul, nearly suffocating me. My God, what kind of monster is this? No wonder he dares to duel with Gongsun Su, this mid-level swordsman

Seeing the return, with a cold and indifferent gaze fixed on his court, Liu Shangyuan's eyes widened, and an uncontrollable fear surged from the depths of his heart, as if a devil had crawled out from hell, occupying his body filled with chill, tightly gripping his heart, as if the moment his words slightly displeased the person before him, that devil would crush his heart in one swift motion

Wang Shan's eyes were also filled with terror

Now, he only wishes to leave this forest, which causes him nightmares even at night, as quickly as possible, never to return for the rest of his life

Liu Shangyuan gritted his teeth as he spoke; he had already treated the wound earlier, yet blood continued to seep slowly from it, staining half of his body a deep crimson.

Liu Shangyuan's legs felt weak, his entire body was cold; all those so-called ambitions, noble honors, and the dignity of high-ranking martial artists were, at this moment, completely cast aside into the void.

Wang Shan ... ... Liu Shao, what should we do now

In the darkness, the figure of the royal court emerged from among the trees, resembling a ghost in the night.

Wang Shan and the other person responded in unison, supporting Liu Shangyuan as they walked towards the outskirts of the forest.

Before long, they had already disappeared into the woods

A sound emanated from the forest

If the spiritual level of the royal court could break through and reach the seventh tier, then merely relying on its own spiritual pressure would be enough to cause the high-level martial artists to experience a mental breakdown

Hurry to treat the injury and return for treatment, otherwise my arm will really be rendered useless

Liu Shao ... ...

Liu Shao, this kid, is undoubtedly a ruthless character who has killed before, and not just one or two people. When he draws his sword, I can distinctly feel the hair on my body standing on end from his murderous aura. Just now, he had already shown mercy; we...

Yes, Liu Shao

The effect is still quite good

The mental intimidation of a sixth-tier psychic is far beyond what those of merely high-tier martial prowess can endure

Answer my question

Traitor

Using a sixth-order mental scale to intimidate those young individuals whose mental level does not even reach the second order is truly an act of bullying the weak with the strong. If it were not for the royal court's lack of understanding of this world of diagrams and books, and their reluctance to easily provoke trouble, they would not engage in such a tedious and unnecessary action

As Wang Ting's figure completely vanished into the forest, Lei Ming's voice trembled slightly as he turned his gaze to Liu Shangyuan, whose entire arm was stained red with blood

I ... ... I ... ...

Such determination has surprisingly led to the cultivation of a high-level martial artist

A high-level martial artist, in his world, cannot achieve mastery without decades of arduous training. Years of unwavering perseverance will undoubtedly strengthen their mindset to the point of being as solid as a rock, ... it is impossible for them to be intimidated by such trivial situations. However, in this world ...

Wang Ting furrowed his brow

You ... ...

Only after seeing these people leave did Wang Ting truly venture deeper into the forest

Ah!

In a state of weakness, the wound on his shoulder was agitated, and he could not help but let out a cry of pain from his mouth

Very well, Lei Ming, you are quite something. How dare you betray me, how dare you sell me out? While everyone else is putting in effort, you stand by and watch. Very well, I, Liu Shangyuan, have come to seek justice for you, and this is how you repay me

The cause of the duel is not the focus

The focus is on being able to duel with an intermediate swordsman, deeply understanding the level of swordsmen in this world

Liu Shangyuan spoke in a low voice, no longer daring to shout as he had before

Very good

Liu Shangyuan is merely a twenty-year-old college student, living a debauched life filled with indulgence. While he might bully some ordinary students, the oppressive atmosphere of facing a life-and-death situation is overwhelming. The suffocating pressure, where a single thought could determine his fate, nearly shatters his mental defenses.

The sixth-level spiritual scale is low, but breaking through to the seventh level is no easy task

Very well, very well. Since I, Liu Shangyuan, entered the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy, I have never suffered such a loss. Very well, extremely well.

Do you want to kill me

It is truly terrifying, absolutely terrifying

However, this cry had not lasted even a second when he seemed to recall something, forcefully suppressing the shout. His face turned extremely pale, and at that moment, his fear of the royal court reached an unprecedented peak

Call!

Wang Ting reined in his thoughts; it was already close to nightfall, and the light in the forest had become quite dim. Even with his keen eyesight, he could not clearly discern each tree.
