"——The premise of facing up is to observe the opponent's intention."

"So the so-called 'attack' is actually a 'counterattack' based on the opponent's actions."

"But it's a bit different from the usual 'counterattack'."

President Charlie raised a finger and felt the spirit of the school dean.

At this moment, he was not a senior executive of the Warm Fire Chamber of Commerce, but a teacher who preached and answered questions:

"On ordinary counterattack, either launching a counterattack when the opponent completes the attack, or launching a counterattack when the opponent has just made an intention but has not taken action. One goes to the tail and the other cuts the head."

"The approach technique requires specializing in counterattack when the opponent has launched an attack but has not fully exerted force - that is, when the force is halfway through, it will launch a counterattack! It cannot be too early or too late."

"The advantage of this is that the opponent has no time to change his moves because he has already exerted half of his strength, and it is not suitable to fight you head-on because his strength has just reached halfway through his strength and has not yet been maximized."

"The most important thing is that half of the force your opponent sends is easy to use. You can use part of your opponent's force while facing the opponent, and fight back together!"

"As a tactical system, the striking technique is based on magic. Once you master this tactical mystery, it can in turn further enhance your magic power!"

"The inherent power of one's own magic, coupled with the opponent's power, the counterattack strategy of immediately attacking halfway, and part of the power of the opponent who is used to leverage the force to attack, and finally the counterattack technique feeds back the power of one's own magic - if all of this is added together and skillfully performed, you will enter a special 'instant opening' state at the moment of facing up."

"In the instant state, your combat power will soar to the theoretical limit of the level you are at!"

Speaking of this, President Charlie expressed his solemn expression and concluded, "Using the 'forward tactic' to achieve the 'instant opening state' in actual combat is the core mystery of the 'forward technique' that the President created."

After listening carefully, Andrew thought carefully for a moment, thinking: "So the so-called 'attack' is not a head-on battle, but more like an interception against the opponent...?"

"Not bad!" President Charlie's eyes lit up, as if he didn't expect Andrew to have such an understanding so quickly.

But in fact, Andrew didn't know so many principles of fighting.

It’s just that from the theory mentioned by the other party, we think of Jeet Kune Do who traveled through the previous world.

I even think of some tennis masters who return the ball without waiting for the ball to bounce to the highest point, but instead hit the ball in the "rebound and rising stage" of the ball.

Always feel...the concept is a bit similar?

Of course, just listen to the concepts.

To truly understand a tactical concept, you still need to practice it in practice.

Sure enough, Dean Charlie began to teach the specific practice of "forwarding technique": "In actual combat, the 'forwarding technique' is more based on the opponent's magic moves, and is a tactic of 'following others'. However, in daily training, it is more necessary to practice based on one's own characteristics, and it is also "forwarding oneself".

"Are you going to do it?" Andrew murmured.

Understanding what Dean Charlie meant, actually you need to do the training and practice of fighting skills based on your own strengths and magical cultivation.

The same training of fighting techniques, the results achieved by different people following the same tactical system are often different.

Because every practitioner is different.

When Andrew was afraid that his understanding would be biased, he confirmed and asked again: "So what I want to do is to integrate my existing magic and abilities into the tactical system of the forging technique, right?"

"Yes." Dean Charlie said, "The core of this stage is not to let you do addition, but to try to subtract. Simplify your moves as much as possible. If you can use one magic to effectively fight your opponent, don't use two moves."

"Simplification and subtraction..." Andrew scratched his head, and nodded.

Recalling your cultivation journey: I continuously harvest the fire extinguishing value through the fire extinguishing upgrade method, consume the fire extinguishing value, and constantly unlock new water magic from the water god's mark.

After becoming a water magic lord, he was able to innovate his own lord magic based on traditional water magic, such as the core ability of business fire extinguishing, "Enchant Finger".

It can be said that what I have been practicing so far is addition! The essence of the fire extinguishing and upgrading method is to do addition, constantly accumulate, and quantitative change leads to qualitative change.

Now, Dean Charlie suddenly asked himself to do subtraction!

This... is really not easy?

Andrew carefully recalls all the magic and abilities he has at present-

Perception with "water inspiration" as the core.

A self-defense system that takes into account both soul defense and physical defense, jointly constructed by "Seed of Water Spirit" and "Fire Immunity".

The newly harvested whole force with the "Gate of Inspiration" as the core.

Because of the "water spirit physique" that continues to improve with the level increase, magicians who become possible "dynamic casting" rarely have the maneuverability of combat in sports.

Through the "Water Element Series", the field control ability brought by various elemental creatures summoned.

A combination of "Enchant One Finger" and "Extra-distance Spindle/Zero-distance Water Cannon" draws a magic circle with one hand, and then the other hand strung up the magic circle, bursting out the strongest finger's ability to break defense, attack, and attack.

The healing ability of the "Water Sacrifice Series".

——Andrew also looked back carefully in his mind and realized that he had already mastered so many magic and mastered so many abilities!

Such complicated and loose magic abilities are now simplified?

How to simplify the problem?

With so many abilities, each has its own uses. How do you tell me how to simplify it?

"Yeah, this..."

President Charlie coughed lightly and said, "I know, Andrew, you know a lot of magic, and it's very complicated..." As he said, he looked at Andrew more, "The President understands this too. Therefore, the simplification you have to do is somewhat different from the simplification work you need to do when practicing the fighting technique."

"What is his advice from President?"

"The president suggests that you can integrate your own magic powers like in the first stage of special training - integrate your own magic. Integrate it, simplify it in an integrated way."

"Uh...what exactly is it? What does it mean?"

"It means that if you don't know how to make a choice, you don't have to make a choice! Most people have limited magic reserves and want to simplify it, they must give up." President Charlie said inadvertently, "The president said that your total amount of magic is far more than that of ordinary magicians of the same level, so if you don't want to make a choice, you can also change your thinking - integrate all the magic you think is valuable and burst out in an instant. This method may be more suitable for you."

"Oh, so the president means that I can use 'water inspiration' to sense the opponent, explore his intentions, and then face it in a targeted manner. When facing it, first summon a large number of elemental life control fields, help me hold the opponent down, and then I draw magic circles with my left hand and water spurt/water cannon with my right hand to give my opponent a ruthlessness. At the same time, I use 'fire immunity' and 'water spirit' to resist the opponent's attack. After the attack, I use the 'water sacrifice series' to match the self-healing power of 'water soul constitution' to immediately perform self-healing - such integration? Is this what it means?"

——Andrew almost couldn't help but ask these words!

Of course, you can't really ask, after all, there are so many water magic that will expose your water system identity.

At the same time, there is no need to ask.

Because it is obvious that the president should mean that!

Andrew felt a little weird.

Listening to the core logic of the approach technique, Andrew felt an elegant, efficient, concise and advanced feeling.

But when it comes to himself, why did the advice given by the president seem to be a bit like letting himself use his own advantages as the water magic lord to explode brute force and rely on his overall strength advantage far beyond the same level to crush his opponent?

Of course this is not bad, but it just...it feels weird.

Especially when I heard the other party say, "The President said that your magic power is far superior to that of the magicians of the same level."

Andrew silently asked for a moment, "He seems to know me really well, Lord?"

When the president gave the green light to him, Andrew wanted to ask about this question.

Now I can't help asking.

But he saw a trace of confusion flashing in Dean Charlie's eyes, and he sighed and replied, "I don't know."

"have no idea?"

"I really don't know. In fact, this is also a question between me and many other senior executives of the chamber of commerce."

“…”

Soon, Andrew officially started the training of "forwarding skills"—

Learn how to integrate your current abilities in an instant, perform them in coordination with each other, and gradually incorporate them into the "fighting technique" system to ensure that you can use them flexibly and calmly in battle.

Since the first step of special training takes a very short time, the time left to give the second step of special training is much more abundant than the original plan.

Andrew spent a day practicing for a while, then asked Dean Charlie for the problems encountered during the practice, and then practiced again.

Then it took another day and a half to practice basically Andrew himself.

While Andrew was working hard, Dean Charlie contacted President Beirue again on the side of the Warm Fire City.

After explaining the situation on the airship to President Beiru, the opposite side had no reply for a long time.

"President?" Dean Charlie asked tentatively.

"...Well, I'm here." President Beiru replied, "You said you have apologized to Andrew? Then I'll also say sorry to Andrew for me... No, when I see him, I'll tell him personally."

"Okay." Dean Charlie nodded and asked, "Are you coming out of seclusion?"

"It's almost done." President Beiru fell silent after saying that.

This time, President Beiru was silent for a longer time, until he passed a new content of practice through the "Heart Net", and then he spoke again, "The technique of facing up is divided into different stages. Andrew practices only the most basic technique of facing up. What I am passing on to you now are more advanced contents of "continuous response" and "infinite instant". You can also leave it to Andrew."

Dean Charlie was surprised: "What? It's fine to 'continuous confrontation', does it even need to be taught in the 'infinite instant'? Could it be... too early?"

"It's not too early. Instead, it's too late." President Beiru seemed to sigh, then stopped talking, and temporarily disconnected the "heart network".
Chapter completed!
