Chapter 71 - 60 Conflict
After the first day, Teacher Karaman no longer enveloped herself in the mist of Spiritual Energy but switched to wearing a regular dark robe, which still couldn’t hide her proud figure.
Perhaps because the trainees had entered practical combat lessons, after everyone had mastered Spiritual Energy, she skipped a large portion of the content and began explaining the application of Spiritual Energy in combat.
"Spiritual Energy originates from the soul and, aside from powering your Fire Spark, it can also strengthen yourselves."
"For instance, deploying your Spiritual Energy at corresponding parts of your body can ward off damage."
Teacher Karaman took out a dagger that shimmered with cold light and chopped it towards her slender finger.
Amid the collective gasps of the trainees, a crisp snap sounded, and the dagger broke.
The blade’s broken half, spinning, fell in front of Rod, while not even the slightest scratch was visible on her delicate and supple finger.
Rod activated the Eye of the Soul and saw her finger filled with solidified Spiritual Energy.
"This is Spiritual Defense, and it’s a very important technique."
"It requires maintaining the Spiritual Energy in a Static State, but we can’t keep it that way all the time because it would hinder the flow of Spiritual Energy and slow down our movements, turning us into mere punching bags."
"We must defend swiftly before an attack comes and return to normal right after the attack ends."
