Chapter 379

At this moment, he became a Wave Mage.

Looking at the unfamiliar skills one by one, he thought about what Bai Yiyuan had said.

"The best way to understand a class is to become that class."

Taking advantage of the Shenxia Tower being open, Meng Anwen had brought in 500 Professionals to serve as sparring partners for Lin Moyu.

He used the Shenxia Tower to replicate everyone's class skills and turn them into puppets.

Lin Moyu would control the puppets to fight against the others.

It was a battle between the same class and the same level.

He would familiarize himself with the skills during battle and learn the combat styles of each class.

It was inevitable that he would get beaten up at first because he wasn't used to it.

Although Lin Moyu was controlling a puppet, he would still feel pain within the array Meng Anwen had set up.

Except for not actually dying, everything else was exactly the same as a real person.

Only just now did Lin Moyu learn Meng Anwen's class: a God-level Array Master.

Various arrays were not difficult at all for Meng Anwen.

Putting aside his messy thoughts, he decided to just go with the flow.

Lin Moyu certainly knew that there was a reason for such an arrangement.

The three of them had gone to great lengths to have the empire's most outstanding group of geniuses serve as his sparring partners.

It would be a huge pity if he didn't seize this opportunity.

"A crucial step to becoming a God-level powerhouse…"

Lin Moyu repeated what Meng Anwen and the others had said.

"Since that's the case, let you all become my whetstone."

The barrier disappeared.

A cold light flashed before his eyes, and an ice arrow had already struck him.

Pain, extreme pain.

His whole body was frozen stiff; he hadn't realized that being frozen could hurt this much.

It was the kind of pain that made him feel like he was about to crack from the cold.

Lin Moyu hadn't reacted at all, or rather, his subconscious hadn't even thought about dodging.

He was usually accustomed to the existence of Bone Armor and the Damage Transfer of his Undead Legion.

He didn't take this level of attack to heart at all.

He had forgotten that he was currently possessing a puppet, and was merely a level 10 Wave Mage.

By the time he reacted, it was already too late.

A second ice arrow struck him head-on.

His frozen body couldn't make any reaction, and he was hit directly.

Amidst the excruciating pain, the puppet vanished.

For that instant, Lin Moyu truly had the illusion that he had died.

The next second, his consciousness descended onto a brand-new puppet.

The level had increased to 12; the skills remained the same, but the attributes had changed slightly.

A familiar barrier, a familiar opponent.

On the other side of the barrier, Lin Li was a bit bewildered; this opponent was a bit too weak.

It was solved with two ice arrows, and he didn't even know how to dodge; he didn't even react.

It felt like hitting a wooden dummy.

Is this a trial?

Why does it feel like playing house?

Or perhaps, the first round was just an appetizer.

Now the level had increased by another 2, reaching level 12.

Lin Li dared not let his guard down and remained fully vigilant.

Lin Moyu finally reacted; he had truly been careless just now.

"I must abandon all my previous combat methods. I am a mage now, a level 12 mage."

"No Undead Legion, no Bone Armor, no Damage Transfer."

"I can only withstand at most two to three attacks."

Lin Moyu kept reminding himself.

He began to adapt to his 'new identity.'

The barrier disappeared, and the second match began again.

An ice arrow came breaking through the wind. This time, Lin Moyu reacted quickly and dodged to the side.

At the same time, he pointed his finger, activated a skill, and threw out an ice arrow of his own.

"He finally moved. As expected, the last one was just an appetizer!" Seeing Lin Moyu start to counterattack, Lin Li felt his guess was correct.

Now is the real test.

It's just that…

The accuracy of the opponent's ice arrow was a bit too far off.

The ice arrow didn't aim at him at all; it flew past him and vanished.

Lin Li felt strange in his heart, but his hands didn't stop.

A level 12 Wave Mage didn't have many skills; there were just a few, back and forth, and not even a Magic Shield.

He threw out one skill after another.

Lin Moyu was immediately forced into a passive position, dodging in a sorry state.

Finally, after dodging several attacks in a row, he made a mistake and couldn't avoid one.

He was seized upon by Lin Li…

Recovering from the pain, Lin Moyu became a level 14 Wave Mage.

"I am too used to the lock-on of Soul Fire, and also used to the area-of-effect attacks of Bone Fangs."

"Ice Arrow requires aiming at the target…"

"And the later Water Ball also requires aiming at the target."

"The speed of Ice Arrow is faster than Water Ball, but Water Ball has a faster rotation speed, so the two can complement each other."

Lin Moyu kept analyzing his mistakes and making up for them.

The waiting time wasn't long; just a minute later.

Lin Moyu only had time to roughly summarize, and the new match began again.

This time, Lin Moyu lost again, but it was much better than before.

The three of them, Meng Anwen and the others, watched the whole process, taking in all of Lin Moyu's changes.

Bai Yiyuan was very satisfied with Lin Moyu's performance. "Not bad, not bad. Lin Moyu is improving very quickly."

Yan Kuangsheng nodded. "He's stronger than you were back then."

Bai Yiyuan snorted coldly. "Isn't he stronger than you?"

The two of them were extremely at odds. Although they didn't come to blows like before, it was still inevitable that they would bicker a bit.

Bai Yiyuan said slowly, "I believe in Lin Moyu's comprehension, but I wonder if repeated failures will damage Lin Moyu's self-confidence."

After all, Lin Moyu had been smooth sailing all the way.

He had created history one after another and seemed to have never tasted the flavor of failure.

Continuous failures like this could indeed damage his self-confidence.

Meng Anwen shook his head. "It won't. You haven't seen Lin Moyu's ruthlessness. Once his ruthlessness kicks in, what is such a small setback?"

Yan Kuangsheng said, "The smoother things are, the more one needs to endure setbacks. No powerhouse has ever grown up without facing setbacks."

"And I see that Lin Moyu has already started to adapt. He can do it."

Bai Yiyuan rarely didn't retort, obviously agreeing with what Yan Kuangsheng said.

In the trial tower, a new round of matches began again.

Chapter 350 We Have All Become General Lin's Whetstone

The level had reached 26, and Lin Moyu had started to adapt to the identity of a Wave Mage.

He began to fight using a mage's methods.

And most of these methods were learned from Lin Li; it wasn't difficult to copy them.

There was also a small portion that were insights Lin Moyu had gained based on his past combat experience.

Gradually, Lin Moyu became more and more proficient.

Both of them had Magic Shields on them and launched attacks against each other.

The two of them were not just standing still, but fighting while running.

A mage's battle is not just about standing and outputting damage.

That is when there is a knight in front; a mage can remain motionless, turn into artillery, and become the most powerful output presence.

If fighting alone, one needs to attack while dodging.

Lin Moyu used to be accustomed to having the Undead Legion in front, or using Bone Armor directly to turn into a meat shield himself.

Like this, fighting while running, it was his first time.

Lin Li was taking it seriously now; he felt that his opponent was rapidly becoming stronger.

Moreover, the rhythm of his opponent's fighting style looked more and more familiar.

Lin Li suddenly realized that this was completely copying his own fighting style.

Since that was the case, Lin Li quickly changed his combat method and changed the rhythm.

Lin Moyu had a moment of adaptation, but just a moment later, Lin Moyu had learned his combat method again.

Both sides fell into a stalemate again.

Although it looked like Lin Li still had the advantage, this advantage was being rapidly leveled by Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu's learning ability was very strong, coupled with his extremely rich combat experience.

He quickly found his own rhythm and began to surpass him.

Lin Li was greatly shocked; the opponent's learning ability was too strong, terrifyingly strong.

Not only did he learn his own fighting style, but he actually began to surpass him.

Both sides had the same level, same attributes, and same skills.

What was being compared was combat techniques, combat experience, and the ability to adapt on the spot.

Finally, after the two had matched 12 times, when both reached level 32, Lin Moyu defeated Lin Li.

By this time, Lin Moyu was quite familiar with the skills of a Wave Mage below level 40.

Lin Li did not leave the Shenxia Tower, but was teleported to another independent space.
