Looking at the "sparks" exploding again in his hand, Lu Pingan sighed helplessly.
Some things have changed, and some things seem to remain unchanged.
Kunba's time in this city and even in this world is limited. When Lu Ping'an was in Changping, he naturally gave top priority to learning the four skills from him.
"Teacher seems to have been injured in the last world and has been recuperating. It seems that he gained something there and is digesting it now." Xia Qin didn't have much confidence when she said this.
Although he is a disciple, this is just hearsay.
Lu Ping An is preparing for 3.0, and Kun Ba is still recalling the world of Silent Mountains in 1.0. It may be that Lu Ping An is lucky, but more importantly, the "rhythm" of high-level professionals is relatively slow, and he will try his best every time.
Dig deeper and spend more time and energy digesting it.
"Okay, okay, you are indeed my disciple. It looks like you are working very hard."
In just these two days, Xia Qin successfully completed a breakthrough and became a fourth-level "Sword Master of Six Paths".
Kunba was in a good mood and even became more active when teaching. Lu Ping'an also took the opportunity to organize more courses, which was a win-win situation.
Kun Ba was surprised by "Xia Qin's hard work after class" and kept saying that he had misjudged her. As a result, Xia Qin even felt a little embarrassed.
Then the next day he continued to scold Xia Qin as a pig.
The reason? So far, her "Hand Binding" progress is still zero, and she is in a state of "still looking for a feeling". She is obviously still the most suitable protection system for practicing this skill.
On the same day, Lu Ping'an finally completed a stable "snapping" and performed the first failed hand-tying operation.
"In two or three months, you will be able to master it completely. Oh, just be my disciple."
When he said this, he glared at Xia Qin who looked innocent, and the implication was very clear.
"I'm really sorry that I'm not a genius."
Xia Qin could only sigh helplessly, and then continue to "go home and practice more." It would be great if she could really catch up with all the geniuses and monsters through pure hard work.
The problem is that as long as the temptation is enough, those with strong talents will work hard.
The fact is that those with outstanding talents will receive more external investment and spiritual feedback. As the accumulation of both parties continues to increase, the distance will often only become wider and wider.
She silently glanced at Lu Pingan, who was practicing hard, lowered her head and continued to do her own thing.
She doesn't have any resentment. She actually knows her own limits. She is lucky enough to be able to meet the right person and become a disciple of the Sword Master by virtue of her "lucky" talent.
As Kunba puts it bluntly.
"I was surprised at your progress when we last met. I originally thought you would have to be forty years old to mature. Even after the correction, I thought you would be in your late twenties before you could barely break through the law order level. You probably weren't pure yet.
I still need a few years to make up for my sword master career. You are constantly breaking my expectations."
In Xia Qin's eyes, that would be her future if she didn't meet Lu Ping'an.
She was actually quite grateful to the young man in front of her, although in every aspect, she felt less and less that this should be the behavior of a "child" who had just entered college.
". Try to master the hand and eye skills initially in these two months. With the help of the teacher, complete the adjustment of the 'hand binding' of the innate sun pattern. If possible, start a little self-cultivation practice."
Her plan is simple and direct, but highly executable. She just needs to make use of the current conditions and follow it.
This has always been her habit, making full use of the resources at hand, accumulating bit by bit, and moving forward.
".I just have to be myself."
Looking at Lu Pingan, who had been able to play with the "silk thread" to create the feeling of "throwing ramen", her eyes were as calm as ever.
She knew that she could only be regarded as a "talent", a lucky person who was good at certain aspects. Well, it seemed that she was not even as lucky as some people.
Understand your own mediocrity and accept your own mediocrity. However, even if you are mediocre, you still persist and keep going step by step.
".Leave it to them that shines."
She was just doing it silently, working hard, and moving forward.
As the "eldest sister" and "captain" of the team, she knows that she is not the strongest, and may even be surpassed by latecomers, but now, maybe they need her as the backbone and need to be at the front.
She is needed for chores and communication with the authorities. When necessary, she is the only one who can criticize Lu Ping'an for being too frivolous. She is like a too young "housekeeper" who spends her days making firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, but she doesn't know what she is doing.
What.
Perhaps many people have not noticed that even though she is busy with work, her strength has never fallen behind. This time, she is the first to break through.
She completed her practice as always and always remained at the forefront of the team. Some people know how much she, a "mediocre" person, has paid for this.
".Sister Xia Qin."
But when she finished her day's practice and returned to her station, she was stopped by Lu Ping'an.
"Give."
Xia Qin was surprised when she received a simple small package.
These are a pair of leather boots, with a blue and white pattern, and decorated with a purple rose. The material on them is quite good, but it is only good, and it is not even a quasi-polluting item.
".This is? Training prop? Fireproof boots? Enchanting material."
Xia Qin was a little confused and didn't know what this meant.
"puff!"
Lu Ping'an laughed shamelessly. The little villain seemed to be covering his mouth, pretending to be suppressing, but in fact he was deliberately laughing loudly.
"Look at the brand on the back." Lu Pingan pointed to the back side of the boots, where there should be a trademark.
"Brand? Well, isn't it a handmade 'material'?"
After rummaging through it, she found a somewhat familiar sign on the back of her boots.
".I seem to have seen it somewhere." She thought hard, but she always felt that it was a little bit different.
But over there, some people couldn't bear it anymore.
"Haha, I'm laughing so hard. Sister Xia Qin, are you really a woman? You don't even remember the most popular women's brands. Unfortunately, I asked Maomao to run around for a long time to find one that is beautiful and durable enough. Okay, don't do it, don't do it.
."
Looking at the blushing young woman who was pulling her collar, lifting herself up, and preparing to punch her, Lu Ping'an smiled and shook his head.
"A little gift, congratulations on becoming a fourth-level professional. This upgrade is very important in a professional's life. Besides,"
The young man looked down with his scratching eyes. Xia Qin lowered her head at the same time and realized that her standard leather shoes were already full of wrinkles and cracks. It was a luck that they were still alive.
"Thank you, Sister Xia Qin, for always."
Simple words, with rare sincerity and seriousness.
He saw it, saw a mortal's efforts and persistence, and also saw her kindness and persistence.
"Little ghost head."
Xia Qin lowered her head for a moment, then raised her head with a smile.
She stretched out her hand, trying to touch the boy's head like before, or knock him angrily.
But the next moment, she discovered that half a year had passed and before she knew it, he had grown a lot taller.
Now, she needed to raise her head slightly to see that familiar smile and her eyes that were still pure after the change.
There still seemed to be nothing in his eyes, but he seemed to have everything.
".Kid, you are ten years too early."
So, she knocked hard, causing Lu Ping'an to scream in pain.
However, there is still a smile on the corner of his mouth.
