Barrier of Light

"I have to say, Gu Shen is a very resilient person."

"Although I have comprehended the breathing method, it will take some time to improve my physical fitness..."

"I ran 15 kilometers a day with a heavy load, and I never cried out that I was tired."

"If you get knocked down a hundred times in the ring, you get up a hundred times."

"Being cut down by a wooden sword, knocked down by setbacks, no matter what happens, he will always have the courage to do it again. This kid is really admirable."

Thirteenth day.

Through the sound-proof glass, Zhong Wei looked at the training ground. Under the guidance of Nan Jin, the boy who was holding the wooden sword tightly with both hands was constantly chopping at the dummy.

He said helplessly: "It's just that, what is his extraordinary ability? Why can't he see any signs of it?"

"..."

Through the glass window, Luo Er silently watched the sweating young man without saying anything.

The young man hacked the wooden dummy, tirelessly. Nan Jin kept beating his shoulders, wrists, and lower abdomen with the scabbard to correct his posture of raising the sword. Complain, and never give up.

He can always readjust quickly, and he can always grit his teeth and persist until the end.

Looking out of the glass window, Gu Shen worked hard.

Luo Er was in a complicated mood.

Both she and Zhong Wei were the first students accepted by the teacher, and they stayed the longest in the tribunal.

In these years, they have seen too many newcomers, some are as stunning as shooting stars, some are as short-lived as the epiphyllum, but there is no doubt... Those who can be discovered and specially recruited into the tribunal are all talented geniuses.

But judging from the current performance, Gu Shen doesn't seem to have much to do with the so-called "S-level genius". This young man is more like a cactus growing in the desert, unpretentious to the extreme. Toughness is nothing else.

Because of its tenacity, it can survive stubbornly even if it does not rain.

But what if he survived? Cactus is always ugly, no matter from which angle you look at it, it is ugly.

"I know that my sister's profile has never been wrong."

"But Gu Shen...hasn't shown the slightest 'natural' talent." Zhong Wei was a little confused: "I used many methods to guide him, but he didn't have the power to control fire at all, he couldn't sense free elements, and Unable to harness the flames of substance. It just doesn't make sense."

Glancing at the training ground, Zhong Wei asked in a low voice: "Obviously, he won't be of the assault type...so he is of the spiritual type?"

At first, they came to Dateng with great expectations, wanting to see the demeanor of the "S" class newcomers.

But after these days, many of their expectations have come to nothing, Yiqi Juechen's extraordinary talent has not been revealed, and Gu Shen's tenacity and perseverance are definitely "S-rank".

Water drips through stone, and perseverance is a great thing.

But the time left for Gu Shen is only fifteen days.

From this point of view, the final review two days later...

It seems not very optimistic.

"Don't forget. Our exploration of supernatural power is just the tip of the iceberg. The genealogy is still being updated, and new supernatural powers will appear every year." Senior Sister Luo finally spoke, "Do you still remember that three years ago, the Central Continent appeared? A special awakener who cannot be classified into the three departments."

"You mean...the trait department?"

Zhong Wei was a little stunned, and then said in a low voice: "Then... it can be explained. But the probability is too low."

"That's right, how does it compare to the probability of S-rank?"

Senior Sister Luo smiled: "The reason why a miracle is a miracle is because the probability is so low that people often dare not believe it."

"Okay, Gu Shen's potential is determined by the review team. This is not something we should worry about... The important thing is that Gu Shen has not given up, he is still persistent, how can we lose confidence in him?"

Senior Sister Luo looked at Zhong Wei, and said seriously, "If I hadn't met Teacher, then you and I would have been abandoned by fate. Now it's Gu Shen, we can't let him lose hope in this world. At least , let him get what he deserves for his efforts.”

Laughter came from beyond the glass window.

It's Gu Shen.

Senior Sister Luo squinted her eyes and looked intently.

Gu Shen sat on the ground with no manners, propped his hands on the green ground, and laughed heartily. In front of him was the crooked wooden man who was split from the shoulder. It didn't matter whether it was split a thousand times or ten thousand times. .

The crooked wooden figure who was not tall had a cut from the shoulder to the abdomen, and the worn out wooden sword was embedded in the cutout. It looked like a tumbler, staggering, moving forward and backward with Gu Shen's laughter.

aside.

Nan Jin was holding the scabbard, under the cover of sunglasses, her face was cold and expressionless, but the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.

She quietly stretched out her hand, and pointed at Gu Shen to the brothers and sisters inside the glass window.

It takes time for dripping water to pass through.

But the perforation of the stone also starts with a crack.

This is the first time in the past thirteen days that Gu Shen has completed Nan Jin's over-allocated strength training... For a newcomer, especially a non-attack superpower, it is not easy to do this step.

He found the technique of chopping and slashing, and he also learned the meaning of looking for weaknesses.

In fact, this is not a task that can be accomplished with strong willpower.

Although... in the formal review, this level is far from enough, but Gu Shen can do it, it is considered a small "miracle".

...

...

Luo Er and Zhong Wei walked out of the soundproof room.

"Hoo... senior sister, senior brother..."

Gu Shen fell to the ground, his clothes were soaked with sweat, he smiled and stretched out his hand, pointing to the shaking wooden figure, "I...I did it...it's not bad, right?"

Nan Jin, who was holding the knife to the side, immediately poured a basin of cold water, "It's just chopping down a wooden man, what's there to be happy about?"

"Do you think that everyone is a girl with double A strength and speed like you?" Gu Shen lay down on the ground in a big font, and said angrily, "If I were as fierce as you, would I still be here as a woodcutter? , I have already gone to the airport to wait for the so-called review team... When they land, I will chop off one pair, and I will chop off a pair if they come... I will chop him up like a tiger, and chop him up like a shit S-level."

"If you can really cut down all the people in the review team, S-level is really shit." Senior Sister Luo smiled, "The people from the review team will come to Davine tonight, how about it, do you want to think about putting it into practice? action?"

Zhong Wei smiled and said: "There are many big shots in the review team this time, and the big shot in charge of issuing the amnesty order is very interested in you. So..."

"The congressman came to review me in person?"

Gu Shen was taken aback, and said in seconds, "I was just talking...just kidding, just kidding."

"Look, I'm scared of you." Nan Jin smiled, "Whether the congressman has time to interrogate you in person, don't worry, that kind of big man is very busy."

"It was the assistant of that big shot who came to Dayeng City and traveled with the review team, saying that he wanted to see your performance in person. Zhong Wei and I are going to make a trip to meet this congressman's assistant, and hold on by the way. review team."

Senior Sister Luo said earnestly: "The special training is almost over... In the next two days, relax. Nan Jin, you are responsible for taking Gu Shen away, and don't meet with the review team in advance."

Nan Jin nodded.

Gu Shen was a little dazed.

"Are senior brothers and sisters leaving?"

"Well... there are some old acquaintances in the review team, I'll go say hello and see if saving face will help." Luo Er remembered something: "Gu Shen, I have some good news for you. The busy matter... is about to come to an end. If there are no accidents, before the review, he can rush back to Da Teng to see you for the last time."

Gu Shen scratched his head.

See you for the last time...it sounds weird.

"All in all, these few days, eat well, sleep well, and don't think too much about the review." Before leaving, Senior Brother Zhong Wei said very intimately: "There is still some money in the card given to you by the adjudication office. , you can spend it all."

Hey Hey hey.

The more you hear it, the more inauspicious it becomes.

In this review, it seems that no one is optimistic about himself.

but……

It seems that it should be so...

Gu Shen looked at the wooden man who had been slashed and was leaning back and laughing at him, and smiled faintly.

He remembered what Chu Ling had said to him.

【"Believe, it is more important than anything else."】

He lay on the training ground floor, his palms outstretched to shade the incandescent lights.

The senior sister suddenly said, "Hey, Xiao Gu."

Gu Shen sat up.

"Don't worry about messy things."

The senior sister standing at the door smiled and said: "Don't worry too much, we have everything."
