Only when Mozzie used Stewing Wok Hammer and Grilling Hammer did Shi Xiaobai end his teaching. Although Mozzie's Kun Peng Hammer Technique had not even reached the Grasped Basics level, Shi Xiaobai's teaching ability was truly admirable for her to be able to use such a complex and powerful offensive skill like Kun Peng Hammer Technique in a short hour.
Mozzie said with mixed feelings, "I really wish that Lord Shi Xiaobai would be a teacher or instructor!"
Shi Xiaobai smiled without a word. On Earth, Shi Xiaobai had previously been taken turns by teachers to … assign homework to him. In this world, he had encountered a perverted instructor like Hisith. As such, Shi Xiaobai did not have a good impression of the two occupations, teacher and instructor.
The trio once again proceeded forward in the complicated cave. They constantly made marks, but thankfully, they did not have the embarrassment of circling back to their original spot. In less than half a minute, they heard the sound of fragmented footsteps in front of them once again.
Around the corner, there were six dark green goblins holding hammers. There was also a large dark red goblin that held a sharp knife in its hand.
This time, there were seven goblins!
Shi Xiaobai turned to look at Kevin and asked, "Can you handle it alone?"
Shi Xiaobai naturally wanted to see Kevin's level in a one-on-one battle.
Kevin's expression was somewhat stiff. His combat style was more suited for one-on-one battles. Facing seven goblins at once was quite stressful, but it was not in his character to admit defeat at such a moment. Furthermore, Mozzie was beside him.
"This Genius obviously has no problem!"
Kevin raised his head slightly and strode out of the corner.
The dark red goblin immediately let out a horrifying scream. Six dark green goblins with hammers in their hands immediately charged at Kevin!
"Black Bear Dominating Palm!"
Kevin immediately struck out with his palm. This palm strike had a majestic aura, as though the air was boiling. The goblin that was charging right in front was struck by the palm and flew backwards. Its body exploded, splattering dark green blood all over the ground.
After Kevin's strike, his body instantly stiffened. The other five goblins pounced at him.
"Bronze Shield!"
Kevin hurriedly conjured a bronze shield to block the five hammers that came smashing at him.
"Peng!"
The bronze shield was struck by the five hammers one after another. Immediately, dense cracks appeared on it, as though it was about to crack apart!
"Cloud Stride!"
Kevin didn't dare to block it anymore. He hurriedly retreated, looking a little embarrassed.
After Kevin retreated a certain distance, he once again struck out with his palm, and another Goblin was sent flying by the immense force.
Kevin's destructive power was indeed rather good. It was much higher than Mozzie's Quaking Mountain Hammer, but his strength came from his superpower, [Price of Might].
The price of power was the freezing of the body and the stagnation of movement in exchange for a short burst of power.
Therefore, every time Kevin struck out with his palm, he had to stop moving and his body would stiffen for a moment.
As a result, Kevin had no choice but to use his Bronze Shield again to defend against the remaining four goblins' hammers.
The bronze shield cracked once again from the strike. Just as Kevin was about to retreat, he was surprised to realize that he had retreated to the cave wall. He could only retreat towards the corner where Shi Xiaobai and Mozzie were.
Kevin clenched his teeth. After casting Psionic Hardening on his right arm, he smashed his palm against the goblin's hammer!
The four hammers all shattered, and the four dark green Goblins shrieked and took a step back.
Kevin was in excruciating pain. There were two bloody holes on his right arm, as though they had been pierced by nails. Hot blood was flowing out of the holes.
Suddenly, Kevin's pupils constricted violently. A sharp knife was already in front of his chest. The dark red Goblin that had grown a lot bigger had rushed in front of him without him realizing it.
The sharp knife was inches away from his chest, so he could not react in time. Ignoring the need to conjure a shield to block it, he didn't even have the time to use Psionic Hardening.
Kevin closed his eyes in fear.
"Peng!"
The pain he feared did not come. Instead, there was a loud bang. Kevin opened his eyes and saw the dark red Goblin's head being separated from its body. It had been sent flying backwards.
Shi Xiaobai was standing beside him with a psionic sword in hand.
Mozzie raised her Psionic Warhammer and charged at the four dark green Goblins. With a Stewing Wok Hammer that had just taken form, the four Goblins collapsed to the ground with a tragic cry. It was a stark contrast to the slow process of clearing monsters she had been doing previously.
"I …"
Kevin's eyes dimmed. The pain in his arm could not compare to the pain he felt in his heart.
Shi Xiaobai stretched out his right hand and placed it on Kevin's wound. A milky-white beam of light bloomed as Holy Radiance's power of light enveloped it. The bloody hole that was spewing blood began to slowly heal.
Kevin felt a warmth from his wound as the pain gradually lessened. Instead, the healing of his wound produced a slight itch.
Shi Xiaobai said softly, "You are not good at fighting one against many."
Kevin subconsciously nodded. The pain he felt in his heart suddenly lessened. Yes, he was not good at fighting one against many. Shi Xiaobai could tell at a glance.
Was this considered comforting him?
Shi Xiaobai said in a deadpan manner, "But you have a lot of questions."
Kevin gaped but did not retort. Instead, he said with a wry smile, "Can I still be saved?"
Shi Xiaobai nodded and said, "Of course, as long as all the problems are resolved, wouldn't it be fine?"
Kevin could not help but smile wryly. Some of the problems were caused by his lack of actual combat experience. Such problems could be slowly resolved, but there were some problems that were destined to be unsolvable. For example, his superpower, [Price of Might], had limitations and conditions that were unavoidable.
Kevin hesitated for a moment and was prepared to explain to Shi Xiaobai what his greatest problem was. He was now completely convinced by Shi Xiaobai.
However, Shi Xiaobai said at this moment, "Your situation is the opposite of Mozzie's. You don't have much energy in your body, but when you actually use it, the power you produce is several times stronger. You must have used a method that increases your strength. However, you have to stop moving when you use your strength. After using your strength, your body will stiffen for a short period of time. That should be the price you have to pay for increasing your strength."
Kevin stared with widened eyes and said in disbelief, "How can you tell!?"
Shi Xiaobai gave Kevin a nonchalant glance. His expression was clearly saying that he could tell.
Kevin said with a wry smile, "You really are a monster … You are absolutely right. That method of increasing my strength is the effect of my superpower. And the condition of using my superpower is to stop moving. The restriction is that the more strength I increase, the longer my body will stiffen. Although this superpower gave me outstanding strength, it deprived me of my agility … There is no way to resolve this problem!"
Shi Xiaobai shook his head and said in a speechless manner, "It was you who deprived you of your agility!"
