Chapter 1327 End of Training
Wang Wei opened his eyes and exhaled. His injuries had healed, and he was back to his peak fighting state. Being surrounded was indeed a different type of battle, and he learned a lot. Back in the lower dimension, he did not care if people surrounded him since he was so powerful that he could slaughter the entire dimension if everyone tried to kill him together.
The only experience he had with this kind of battle was when he faced Old Man Nether and all his Creation Lifeforms, and he suffered due to the sheer amount of opponents. But that experience paled compared to this battle since he was now facing a team of elite cultivators.
Wang Wei looked at Wu Hong: "What's next?"
"We'll do it again," she replied. "But this time, your opponent will work together and use formation." Wang Wei immediately became serious. The previous battle was already challenging, but if those people worked together and were perfectly in sync, the difficulty level would have more than tripled.
"Alright."
Wang Wei then experienced another challenging battle, and this time, he truly felt like he was fighting multiple opponents, but simultaneously, he was fighting only one. With these people perfectly working together, he could not use specific tactics like killing one person at all costs, and that's because every time he's about to succeed, these people will share vitality with that person and return them to their peak health.
Luckily, Wang Wei had his methods without Wu Hong having to remind him. He used his Spirit Particle to act as an Array Virus to destroy the link between these people, thus eradicating their formation. Once they were no longer in sync, it became easier to deal with them.
He also applied many of her teachings, such as using multiple artifacts. Although Wang Wei did not have them, he had access to Time Dao, so he summoned artifacts from an alternate timeline and started learning how to use multiple weapons in battle.
By the end of the battle, Wang Wei's clothes were tattered, showing his muscular frame. He had blood all over his body, many bones were broken, and his left arm was useless.
"Any comments?" Wang Wei asked as he sat in the void to heal.
"A few, but there is no need for me to say anything since you'll realize them by yourself," Wu Hong replied. "However, you need to learn a Healing Source Technique. Sometimes, you will be besieged by groups, meaning you'll only have a short interval to heal and return to your peak state."
"Healing Source Technique?" Wang Wei asked.
Wang Wei secretly shook his head. This massive library had four floors, each bigger than the others. The lowest floor contained information about the Mortal Realm, the second floor involved the Emperor Realm, and so on. The things Wang Wei needs to learn are primarily on the fourth floor (Paragon Realm), but he decided to stop on the third floor first.
After entering the third floor, Wang Wei could not stop praising his future wife. The size of this floor alone was on par with the lower dimension, and what's more, the size did not exist simply for grandeur's sake. Every inch was filled with books, showing how vast knowledge she had accumulated in her life. He scanned the place before heading to the area about Grandmist Wheel. One of the criticisms he received from his future wife was his wheel application. According to her, even by Empyrean's Standard, his utilization of the thing has not met her requirements, let alone reaching the level of competing in the Paragon Realm. So, Wang Wei decided to start with the basics.
As soon as Wang Wei took a book and started reading, he sensed his surroundings had changed. 'Hmm? Time Formation? How thoughtful.' A bright smile flashed on his face before regaining his composure. Her actions reminded him that time was of the essence, so he needed to do things with a sense of urgency. Without hesitation, Wang Wei scattered all his 1.269 trillion spirit particles, each reading a book.
Time passed, and Wang Wei spent 10 Yuan Epochs reading books from the third to the fourth floor. He even had to read a few books on the second floor. He had to leave the library but felt reluctant. He had only scratched the surface level regarding the number of books he read during this time.
It was fascinating to improve every moment while also learning the secrets of Heaven and Earth.
'It's time to leave,' Wang Wei thought. He had acquired all the knowledge he needed to meet Wu Hong's standards, and it was now time to return to the nitty gritty part of the training. 'I wonder how long has passed outside?'
Wang Wei left the library and checked: One Yuan Epoch had passed outside. 'A ratio of 1 to 10? That's better than my formation,' he commented. 'Luckily, the world was still quiet.' Nothing significant has happened on the outside, reassuring Wang Wei. However, he did not waste time and re-started his training with Wu Hong.
"Hmm? Look at you with your scholarly aura," Wu Hong commented. After spending so much time reading, Wang Wei's aura changed, and he resembled a scholar with profound eyes and a sense of righteousness.
"You look quite handsome."
"You think so? After we get together, we can role-play. I can be a scholar, a tyrant, a painter, or anything you want." Wang Wei did not waste this opportunity to flirt.
"In that case, I'll look forward to it," Wu Hong replied calmly. "Let's get to business."
The two started their training, and another two Yuan Epochs passed outside, which meant 20 Yuan Epochs of nonstop fighting and training. The world remained quiet, but everyone could feel a rising tension in the air. In the meantime, Wang Wei had completed his training.
Was he able to beat Wu Hong? No, but he reached the point she could not beat him in the same realm with the same stats. Unfortunately, she would cheat every time he got cocky and secretly increase her cultivation to beat him up.
