Chapter 596: Tang Huoer is obsessed with looks?
When Yang Shan walked towards the cave entrance, the system sent a prompt:
[Ding! Your handsomeness has increased Tang Huoer's favorability towards you by 1 point! ]
[Ding! Your cool and straightforward style of doing things is appreciated by Tang Huoer. Tang Huoer's favorability +1. Current favorability: 2.]
Yang Shan: “.”
Yang Shan believed that after spending so much time together in his previous life, he knew Tang Huoer very well.
But these two system messages really confused Yang Shan.
what's the situation?
Although Tang Huo'er has a bit of a spoiled daughter's temper, her personality is just like her current outfit with a black background and red lining: hot, straightforward, and extremely capable.
Due to coincidences, Yang Shan carried out several missions in Qixing City with Tang Huoer, whose identity was hidden. With enough interactions as a foundation, this "story" began.
It's not like it is now, where you get two points of favorability as soon as you come in.
Could it be that Tang Huoer is also obsessed with looks?
Yang Shan looked at the description in the system message, words like "handsome" and "cool". To put it bluntly, isn't it just because he looks handsome that Yang Shan has a good impression of him?
Yang Shan immediately took screenshots of the two messages.
"If anyone dares to say that I'm not as handsome as Lin Xiuya on the forum, I'll use this screenshot to slap him in the face!"
Yang Shan still felt a little bothered by Lin Xiuya's matter.
The main thing is that Tianyao Company is licking all the players. For the gaming experience of female players, Tianyao Company has naturally carefully designed many male NPCs that can attract female players.
Yang Shanfang is definitely a handsome guy in the real world, but he is definitely not as good as those "masterpieces" of Tianyao artists.
In the Fengbang, the only one who is strong enough to compete with Tianyao’s artist seems to be Su Yitong so far.
Yang Shan relied on his combat power and temperament to secure the second place on the Dragon Ranking.
That idiot Lin Xiuya is still serving as a "heartwarming senior" at Canaan College, and his cultivation level isn't even as good as that of a loser like Wang Tianhao.
It’s all thanks to that face that he has been ranked in the top ten of the Dragon List for a long time.
Another person who poses a huge threat to Yang Shan simply because of his appearance is Liu Qing.
But with Tang Huoer's favorability screenshot in hand, Yang Shan can confidently say:
"Who is handsome? Do I need to add anything more?"
Can Lin Xiuya win Tang Huoer's favor just by relying on his looks?
However, Yang Shan, who was secretly proud of himself, also felt something strange.
If Tang Huoer is obsessed with looks, then why didn't Tang Huoer's favorability increase in his previous life because of his good looks?
This question is worth thinking about carefully. It may help improve Tang Huoer's favorability faster, and thus help him get rid of his hidden disease! Let Tang Huoer be reborn!
Just then, Tang Huoer caught up with him and blocked Yang Shan's way:
"I was wrong about what happened just now."
Yang Shan said calmly:
"You've apologized before, and I've accepted it. There's no need to apologize again. It's not a big deal."
Tang Huoer explained:
"No, I came to you because I want to learn from you. You are very good at swordsmanship."
Yang Shan glanced at Tang Huoer and said seriously:
"You're a little weak. I'm afraid I can't control myself and might hurt you."
Hearing this, Tang Huoer was unhappy at the time:
"Who are you looking down on?"
Yang Shan: "Girl, I don't look down on you."
The moment Yang Shan saw Tang Huoer, he used the detection function.
The name displayed on Tang Huoer's panel is now "Tang Lili".
The panel did not provide any information about Tang Huoer's true identity, but it did give Tang Huoer's specific combat power value.
One-star Dou Zong, with the seal of “Golden; Sheng”.
This level and the text on the panel definitely do not match Tang Huoer's actual situation.
After all, Tang Huoer's ranking in the Tianjiao list is still above "Yidao Zhenjun".
If one wanted to hide one's strength, it would be extremely difficult to conceal it from Yang Shan's soul perception in the late spiritual realm.
Moreover, compared to hiding his strength, Yang Shan believed that Tang Huoer already had a hidden illness.
Tang Huoer in the game had the same experience as in the original novel. He failed to forcibly fuse the "Nine Dragons Thunder Fire", the inherited fire of Fenyan Valley, resulting in severe damage to his foundation and a regression in his cultivation.
"We haven't fought yet, how can you be sure that I can't beat you?"
Facing Tang Huoer's questioning, Yang Shan chose to convince him with reason:
"I destroyed the Jincai Sect. If you could solve this matter purely by force, you wouldn't have disguised yourself as a maid."
Tang Huoer was angry: "Damn it! This guy is handsome, but his mouth is really poisonous! He dares to look down on me. If it were in the past..."
Although she was angry, Tang Huoer still had no intention of giving up:
"Then I'll give you a reward. Can you please spar with me?"
In order to prevent Yang Shan from refusing again, Tang Huoer explained:
"For a war-loving person, it is very uncomfortable to meet an opponent who arouses his desire to fight, but cannot fight. I beg you to help me!"
Yang Shan stopped and sighed:
"Forget the reward, just do it."
Tang Huoer seemed eager to try.
She chased Yang Shan all the way out of the cave and saw that the surroundings were in a mess and she could no longer sense any living creature around.
This proves that what Yang Shan said before was true, he did destroy the Jincai Sect!
Tang Huoer is a girl who cannot sit still. Retreat and practice hard is not a good experience for her.
Tang Huoer also knew her shortcomings in this area, but she was smart and would seek out peers with the same talent to compete with whenever she had the chance. If she couldn't defeat her opponent in a short period of time, Tang Huoer knew she had to work harder.
And if she was defeated directly, Tang Huoer's competitive spirit would be completely aroused, which would prompt her to consciously carry out boring and hard training.
Yang Shan knows Tang Huoer too well.
He was certain that after he demonstrated his swordsmanship, Tang Huoer would definitely seek him out for a sparring match.
But the reason why he had to refuse several times before "reluctantly" agreeing was simply to "avoid suspicion."
Tang Huoer did not hide her beauty, and if she was too proactive when they first met, it might arouse Tang Huoer's vigilance.
Tang Huoer is a straightforward girl, she will take the initiative!
Apart from the increased favorability due to his appearance, everything was as Yang Shan expected.
Tang Huoer raised his hands and a pair of fiery red metal boxing gloves were already put on.
As he clenched his hands, a few flames rose from his gloves:
"Before you do anything, you have to tell me your name, right?"
Yang Shan: "If you can force me to show my true abilities, you will naturally know who I am."
Tang Huoer smiled and said:
"Okay, young master is arrogant, so let's see who's the winner!"
Discussing and fighting are different, both aim to verify each other's performance and make up for each other's shortcomings.
Therefore, Yang Shan naturally cannot rely on his cultivation to suppress others.
According to Yang Shan's estimation, he would only use 30% of his strength at most.
Fortunately, version 3.1 updated the sparring mode, and players can manually adjust the panel value ratio within the range of 100% to 0.1%.
It would be too troublesome for players to control the strength of their attacks. In addition, players often compete with NPCs with whom they have a good relationship. Even players in high positions in some forces will have faction tasks to teach their disciples!
It would be inappropriate if the NPC was hurt due to failure to control the power.
Tianyao Company has been working hard to optimize these small things that can easily affect the player experience.
After adjusting the panel to 30%, Yang Shan nodded to Tang Huoer:
"let's start."
"Okay, then be careful!"
Huo'er took a stance, and flames immediately ignited from his hands.
The color of this flame may seem ordinary, but it is actually the eighth-level beast fire that her father Tang Zhen got for her!
An eighth-level demon beast is like a Dou Zun. To obtain the eighth-level beast fire, one must at least kill an eighth-level thousand beast king!
After all, the Hundred Beasts King has no chance of reaching the eighth level, and the Thousand Beasts King also has to rely on a lot of resources, time and hard work, plus enough opportunities, to have a chance!
Tang Huoer was not at all stage-frightened. Facing Yang Shan, she chose to take the initiative to attack!
The fighting skill used by Tang Huoer is called "Pure Yang Fierce Gang".
This fighting skill is a "mutated version" of the low-level earth-level fighting skill "Pure Yang Cotton Hand" that is secretly passed down in Fenyan Valley.
When Tang Huoer first learned "Pure Yang Cotton Hands", she felt that although the hidden power of this fighting skill was powerful, the moves looked a bit too soft and she didn't like it.
So as he learned, Tang Huoer began to try to modify his fighting skills.
But Tang Huoer overestimated himself somewhat. Without years of practice to acquire powerful fighting skills, how could he succeed if he rashly modified a low-level earth-level fighting skill?
Fortunately, Tang Huoer has a father who loves her. The five-star Dou Zun Tang Zhen personally took action and "cooperated" with Tang Huoer to transform the dark power of "Pure Yang Cotton Hand" into bright power. Although it lacks some surprise, the overall power is much higher.
After Tang Zhen's continuous optimization, this "Pure Yang Fierce Gang" can already be regarded as an intermediate earth-level fighting skill!
Tang Huoer was particularly fond of this fighting skill, so he practiced it without any laziness.
From then on, "Pure Yang Lie Gang" became Tang Huoer's signature fighting skill.
Whenever it comes to close combat, Tang Huoer can rely on this fighting skill to make his opponent unable to resist.
then
The [Yama] in Yang Shan's hand was so fast that only its afterimage could be seen.
The sound of metal colliding was very frequent, which also meant that every punch of Tang Huoer was blocked by Yang Shan!
What surprised Tang Huoer the most was that Yang Shan had been standing there without moving!
what is this?
This is the gap!
"I still don't believe it!"
The hot-tempered Tang Huoer gritted his teeth and continued to attack, but Tang Huoer, who attacked with both hands, was unable to break through Yang Shan's one-handed defense!
Tang Huoer is a boxing expert with great skills. She has met opponents among her peers, but she has never met anyone who can block her attack so easily!
Fortunately, Tang Huoer secretly had a backup plan.
When Tang Huoer was performing "Pure Yang Fierce Gang" just now, he was actually secretly activating another fighting skill.
Now that the activation is completed, it's time to give Yang Shan a surprise!
Tang Huoer, who was originally throwing a punch, instantly changed his fist into a palm:
"Look at my Taiyi Fire Palm!"
This "Taiyi Fire Luo Palm" is also an intermediate earth-level fighting skill, but it is a palm-power fighting skill that focuses on explosive killing.
Tang Huoer naturally didn't want to hurt Yang Shan, so she didn't use the true power of "Taiyi Fire Luo Palm".
The palm force that flew out of his hand was only ten feet in size. Both of them activated their body-protecting energy before fighting, so Yang Shan would definitely be unscathed!
But at this moment, a scarlet lightning flashed, and Yang Shan disappeared from the spot in an instant.
The tactics Tang Huoer had prepared failed, and his palm hit a big tree, burning it to ashes.
Tang Huoer stopped moving. She looked up at Yang Shan in mid-air:
"I was just saying that you look familiar. Red thunder, three thousand thunders. You are the young master of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, right?"
Yang Shan: "I remember the Taiyi Fire Palm, it seems to be a secret teaching of Fenyan Valley. Girl, your identity seems to be not simple either!"
