Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 922 - 464: Graceful Shooting (Part 2)

He waved his hand to let everyone retreat, leaving Xia Luyao alone.

"What do you think of this person Lin Beichen?" Deng Zhong asked seriously.

Xia Luyao shook his head and said, "I can't see through him. He always loves to be mysterious, yet the things he says often come true. It's hard to explain."

Deng Zhong nodded, "Our Huaxia civilization has a long history. Perhaps some ancient Daoist Secret Techniques have indeed been passed down. You should pay more attention to him. If he really has this capability, we can consider recruiting him into the Special Warfare Base."

Xia Luyao assured that he would closely monitor Lin Beichen, then saluted and left.

After resting for a day, the Venomous Snake Special Team returned to the training ground to continue serving as instructors for the recruits. The recruits, observing the serious instructors, felt anxious.

Xia Luyao led the recruits in cross-country running training while secretly observing Lin Beichen, hoping to uncover the secrets about him.

Xia Luyao stared at the conspicuous sharp-beaked chicken pattern on the target ring, momentarily speechless. She wondered if Lin Beichen was deliberately being mischievous.

Ouyang Qian was the first to break the silence, asking angrily, "Is your drawing of this thing meant to humiliate us, the Fire Phoenix?"

Lin Beichen replied with an innocent look, "Who said this is a chicken? It's clearly a Fire Phoenix. If you don't believe me, you can ask others!"

"Still dare to argue?" Ouyang Qian's anger grew.

Lin Beichen shrugged helplessly, "I really drew a Fire Phoenix. If you insist it's a chicken, there's nothing I can do."

Ouyang Qian was so infuriated by his attitude that she couldn't speak.

At this moment, Ye Cunxin stepped in to mediate, "Alright, arguing about this is pointless. The key question is, who won this shooting competition?"

Ouyang Qian initially wanted to say Tan Xiaolin won, but looking at Lin Beichen's target ring, she hesitated. Although Tan Xiaolin had a higher score, Lin Beichen had used bullets to create such an intricate pattern on the target ring.

This required extremely high precision, with every shot hitting the intended spot. Such marksmanship was unmatched by any member of the Fire Phoenix.

Tan Xiaolin took a deep breath and acknowledged her defeat, "I concede this round."

Tang Xiaoxiao asked unwillingly, "Instructor, are we just going to admit defeat like this?"

Tan Xiaolin looked at her, "Whoever can replicate the same pattern wins."

Tang Xiaoxiao and the other members of Fire Phoenix remained silent, knowing they couldn't do it.

Finally, Tan Xiaolin said to Lin Beichen, "You win, I admit defeat."

Lin Beichen smiled calmly, "Much appreciated."

Seeing this, a rare smile appeared on Xia Luyao's face. She initially wanted Fire Phoenix to give the recruits a hard time, but Lin Beichen had disrupted her plans.

After training, the recruits gathered around Lin Beichen, praising him incessantly.

"Brother Lin, you're amazing! Your shooting skills are just like a sharpshooter's!"

"Brother Lin, you really made us recruits proud!"

Listening to these compliments and watching his rising Faith Value, Lin Beichen felt secretly pleased. He had won this match with style!

In the following days, the recruits trained alongside the elites of the Fire Phoenix Special Team, creating a tense yet passionate atmosphere.

Xia Luyao originally planned to motivate the recruits using the strength of Fire Phoenix, but Lin Beichen's outstanding performance disrupted her plans. As a result, she had to quickly adjust her strategy and redesign a more challenging training program.

Thus, in the days that followed, the recruits endured a series of grueling training sessions, leaving them groaning in agony.

Of course, this was nothing for Lin Beichen, who easily met each challenge.

After enduring this tough training, the recruits finally welcomed a short two-day break. After long periods of intense training, they finally had the chance to relax and unwind.

Everyone was thrilled. Although the break was short, the joy it brought surpassed their winter and summer vacations from school days.

"Brother Lin, where are you planning to go for the holiday? Want to hang out together?" After training ended and returning to the dorm, Wang Meng enthusiastically asked Lin Beichen.

Several of them were planning to relax in the city, but Lin Beichen had his own plans. "I'm going home to visit family," he replied directly, "It's been a long time since I went back, need to make time to visit."

Wang Meng looked slightly disappointed but didn't say anything more, turning to pack his belongings.

Lin Beichen quickly packed his things and went downstairs to register his leave.

Early the next morning, with the sky just breaking, Lin Beichen left the dorm with his luggage. A streak of red sunrise in the east sky illuminated his face.

In good spirits, he headed straight for the military district gate. However, just as he was about to leave the district, a familiar voice called out to him.

"Lin Beichen, where are you going?" Looking back, it was Instructor Xia Luyao.

Xia Luyao was about to have breakfast and happened to see Lin Beichen. Lin Beichen smiled and replied, "Going home for a visit, it's my day off, should be fine, right?"

"Your home is in Yanjing City?" Xia Luyao curiously asked.

"Yes, just on a mountain outside the southeast suburbs." Lin Beichen nodded.

Xia Luyao half-joked, "Is it a luxury mansion on the mountainside?"

"Not a mansion," Lin Beichen laughed, shaking his head, "Just an old Daoist Temple."

He thought to himself that in this world, he didn't have a real home, and now the temple was considered his abode.

"A Daoist Temple?" Xia Luyao recalled Lin Beichen mentioning his master was an old Daoist, "Did you grow up in that temple?"

"Pretty much," Lin Beichen answered vaguely.

Seeing Xia Luyao's curious expression, he casually invited, "Instructor Xia, interested in visiting our temple?"

Unexpectedly, Xia Luyao agreed without hesitation, "Sure!"

Lin Beichen initially meant it as a polite offer, but since Xia Luyao agreed, he was quite pleased. Perhaps she could bring new followers to the temple.

The two quickly got ready and took a taxi to the temple. Along the way, Xia Luyao curiously asked various questions, and Lin Beichen answered them one by one.

When the car stopped at the foot of the mountain, Xia Luyao looked at the peak ahead and asked, "What's the name of this mountain?"

Lin Beichen was momentarily stunned as he actually didn't know the exact name of the mountain. So, he casually made it up, "Nameless Mountain."

Hearing this, Xia Luyao frowned, "Why such a strange name?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Lin Beichen then feigned a profound expression and explained, "The Daoist Family emphasizes that names are mere illusions, mere codes, and there's no need to dwell on them."

Although Xia Luyao found it a bit odd, she didn't ask further. The two then began to climb towards the temple.

The two climbed along the winding mountain path.

This peak, referred to as "Nameless Mountain", is located outside the suburbs and is rarely visited. They walked on the tranquil mountain road without encountering a single person.

"Lin Beichen, this mountain is so remote, barely a soul to be seen. Why did your temple choose to be built here?" Xia Luyao asked, looking at the lush wild grass along the roadside.

Lin Beichen smiled and replied, "The ancients said, 'A mountain does not need to be high, with an immortal it's renowned; water does not need to be deep, with a dragon it's mystical.' Although this place is remote, its Feng Shui is excellent. Our Daoist Family always valued Feng Shui, not the pursuit of fame and profit."

Upon hearing this, Xia Luyao nodded in agreement, feeling that Lin's words made sense.

"What you said does have some reason." She said softly.

"Alright, let's continue." Lin Beichen said calmly, then stepped forward.

Along the way, Lin Beichen walked briskly, and Xia Luyao struggled to keep up with his pace. As they neared the mountaintop, Lin Beichen remained calm, not even panting, while Xia Luyao was already sweating profusely.

Xia Luyao stood with her hands on her hips, panting heavily. Although she had undergone various training since childhood and had above-average physical fitness among special forces, compared to someone with Lin Beichen's exceptional stamina, she seemed lacking.
