Chapter 201 201: Violent Backlash!
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently at Tang Li Xue and shook her head in resignation.
'This little one is surely getting more and more mysterious and unpredictable after she evolved into [Uncommon] grade! But her fighting style is so messy, I must train her stricter from now on to polish her more! I am really looking forward to seeing how strong she will become after she evolves into a spirit beast in the future!' Instructor Mei Lan thought while kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a heated gaze.
The happy Tang Li Xue shuddered slightly as her [Spirit Perception] detected the danger which Instructor Mei Lan would push onto her in the future, but unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not know it yet, so she did not think much about it.
Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue went out of the sparring room and heading together to the medical ward.
Instructor Mei Lan pulled out Bing Yi, Li Jing, Hei Yinghao, and the others from her space pouch and let the medical squad healed all of their wounds.
Tang Li Xue even begged Instructor Mei Lan to have her perfect copy treated by the medical squad.
"Your clone also needs to get healed?" Instructor Mei Lan asked Tang Li Xue in puzzlement.
Tang Li Xue nodded and explained a bit about her [Twin Moons] divine ability to Instructor Mei Lan.
Well... At least, in the beginning, Tang Li Xue only planned to explain a bit about it, but under Instructor Mei Lan's strict interrogation, Tang Li Xue ended up telling everything about her [Twin Moons] skills such as [Swap], [Damage Transfer], [Shared Senses] and even [Merge].
Tang Li Xue really wanted to cry right now, but no tears came out. She swore her Instructor Mei Lan should be the master in interrogation too since she could even force Tang Li Xue to spill everything out just like that.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled even more kindly and patted Tang Li Xue's shoulder while saying: "You have an amazing divine ability so you should treasure it more. Sigh... You are really born to be an Investigator. I will train you carefully from now on, so be prepared!"
Tang Li Xue's body shuddered even more violently. The feeling of danger given by her [Spirit Perception] became more apparent, but Tang Li Xue still remained clueless about it.
It did not take long for the medical squad to heal Bing Yi, Li Jing, and the others since their wounds were not that severe. Instructor Mei Lan struck right at their vital point and made them fell unconscious without much difficulty after all.
However, the medical squad was facing a lot of trouble when they tried to heal Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue's perfect copy wounds.
Instructor Mei Lan's burns were not from the normal flame. The horrible dark-gold flame should keep encroaching Instructor Mei Lan's body until she burned into nothingness.
Tang Li Xue already completely dispersed the residue of dark-gold flame in Instructor Mei Lan's body before they went out from the sparring room, but it did not mean the burns caused by it could heal so easily.
In fact, Instructor Mei Lan's burns did not show any sign of recovery even after the medical squad did everything they could.
The same case also happened to Tang Li Xue's perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue never knew that the backlash effect of [War Goddess Mode] was so terrifying because she never entered the [War Goddess Mode] before so today was her first experience.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy has gotten paler and paler as if her current body was devoid of any blood. Her breath also got fainter and fainter as if it could stop at any moment. It was clear that her perfect copy was currently on the verge of death!
The real Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve and really glad that she did not use [Merge] skill with her perfect copy or the one who lied down on that bed right now would be her!
"The backlash of your ability is too horrible. Try not to use it often in the future! Even if you are forced to use it, make sure to leave your copy intact so you can use your [Damage Transfer] to her like now, understand?" Instructor Mei Lan warned Tang Li Xue with a really stern tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded to Instructor Mei Lan with a solemn expression.
The medical squad also did everything they could to save Tang Li Xue's perfect copy and restore her health, but they still could not nullify the violent backlash from the [War Goddess Mode].
All they could do was trying to extend the copy's life and wait until the violent backlash from the [War Goddess Mode] to gradually fade away.
Tang Li Xue even took out two of her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] then tried to use it to Instructor Mei Lan and her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy was still in a coma like before, but Instructor Mei Lan's burns started to regenerate very slowly thanks to Tang Li Xue's [Talisman of Regeneration +2].
Tang Li Xue even brought out the unconscious Yaya from her system storage, and the sleeping Phoenix of Pride from her Dantian then used her [Talisman of Regeneration +2] to both of them before stored them back.
Yaya and Phoenix of Pride were currently also facing the backlash from the [War Goddess Mode], but their symptom was far lighter than Tang Li Xue's perfect copy.
After thinking about the reason for a while, Tang Li Xue found the cause quite easily.
It seems Both Yaya and Phoenix of Pride were currently at [Rare] grade, while Tang Li Xue was only at [Uncommon] grade, so her body was not strong enough to handle both of them.
'I only think to raise my Spirit stats lately... It looks like I must also continue to raise the other three stats from now on. Sigh...' Tang Li Xue sighed in annoyance.
After half an hour, Bing Yi, Li Jing, Hei Yinghao, and the others regained their consciousness.
"Xue! How... How could you become like this?!" Hei Yinghao held Tang Li Xue's copy hand and shouted with a tone full of worry and grief.
"Little Xue! Please, I beg you! Be strong and survive!" Bing Yi even sheds her tears when she saw the critical condition of Tang Li Xue's copy because the copy was like the fire on the candle which could die out anytime.
Even the eyes of Li Jing, Huang Hao, and Gan Aomiao turned red when they saw the pale face of Tang Li Xue's copy and her breath was so faint until it was almost undetectable.
"Xue! Tell me who did this to you?! I... I promise I will sure avenge you! Even if the one who did it is a God or Buddha... I will... certainly will... slay them all for you!" Hei Yinghao grasped the copy's hand tighter and vowed sincerely.
Instructor Mei Lan could no longer bear all of her students kept making such a large commotion in the medical ward, so she slapped the back of Hei Yinghao's head with her palm and said: "I am the one who did it! What? You want to slay me too?!"
"Ins... Instructor Lan? How could you do this to my beloved Xue?! This is clearly too much! You... Eh... Eeehhhh... EEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHH?!" At first, Hei Yinghao shouted in anger to Instructor Mei Lan, but he immediately shouted in disbelief when his gaze fell to the masked girl behind Instructor Mei Lan.
"Xu... Xue? But... This is also Xue? How could there be two Xues here?! Who are you?! How dare you disguising as our Xue?!" Hei Yinghao looked back and forth between the real Tang Li Xue and her copy before pointing his index finger at the real Tang Li Xue and shouted angrily.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and said calmly: "Silly Fox, can you calm down for a bit? Your loud voice is disturbing the other patients here!"
Hei Yinghao immediately released the copy's hand and stood beside the real Tang Li Xue with a silly smile on his face.
"I already knew my Xue is so strong and my Xue will never be defeated so easily! I only touched the girl's hand to confirm that she is the fake one. Actually, I already know that she is a fake since her hand is so rough and gross to touch!" Hei Yinghao said his excuse with a straight face.
'Rough and gross?! How dare he say that to me?! My hand is still so soft and smooth!' Tang Li Xue stared at Hei Yinghao angrily and kicked him away.
"In the book, it says the girl will get angry if the guy she likes touches another girl... Does it mean Xue likes me for real?!" Hei Yinghao mumbled, but his eyes shone brighter in excitement.
"Instructor Lan, do you know a teacher with the strong wind-elemental divine abilities? Can you help me to ask that teacher to teach Yaya?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a begging tone.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and asked back: "There are many teachers with the strong wind-elemental divine abilities in Myriad Foxes Academy. I can help you recommend your little friend to them but the decision to accept or refuse is still in their hands. Let's see... What kind of teacher do you want? The mediocre teacher, the best teacher, or the strongest teacher?"
"Eh? Of course, I want the best one for Yaya... but what is the difference between the best teacher and the strongest teacher?" Tang Li Xue tilted her head and asked with a curious tone.
