Chapter 372 Training With Xi Meili (1/2)

”Y-You want to practice Dragon's Gaze? With me? But it's dangerous doing it outside the Ancestral Dragon Temple.” Xi Meili said to him, worried that she might permanently injure him.

Yuan said, ”That's right. You're more experienced with the technique, so I'd figured you can give me some advice. Furthermore, during our match, it felt like I was understanding more about the technique just from looking at your eyes. As for injuring me… you don't have to worry about it. I'll be fine.”

”Well… I don't mind.” Xi Meili said.

Yuan then turned to look at Wang Xiuying and said, ”What about you?”

”Don't mind me. I will be watching you in the background,” she said.

Sometime later, they arrived at the courtyard.

”I don't really know what kind of advice I should give you, so let's just use Dragon's Gaze on each other like we did during our match and see if you can understand anything from it.” Xi Meili said to him.

Yuan nodded.

”Let's start slow.” Xi Meili then stood about 10 meters away from him.

”We're going to slowly approach each other like previously. Ready when you are.”

”I am ready,” Yuan said.

”Then we'll use our Dragon's Gaze on the count of three… two… one… go!”

Whoosh!

A profound pressure immediately enveloped the courtyard when Yuan and Xi Meili's Dragon's Gaze collided, giving Wang Xiuying a nostalgic feeling. However, this time, she made sure to stand all the way back where the pressure didn't affect her as much.

A few moments later, once they were feeling a little comfortable, Yuan and Xi Meili began approaching each other.

And with each step they took, they increased the strength of their Dragon's Gaze.

Before they knew it, both of them were standing directly in front of each other again, silently staring right into each others' eyes like they wanted to see their soul.

Since this wasn't a match, Xi Meili didn't try to overwhelm Yuan, and she merely matched his strength, perhaps even slightly above him.

A few minutes later, Xi Meili asked him, ”Well? Are you improving?”

”Can you increase the strength of your Dragon's Gaze some more? You don't have to go easy on me.” Yuan said to her.

After a moment of silence, Xi Meili suddenly increased the strength of her Dragon's Gaze.

Although it wasn't quite as powerful as it was during the match, it was pretty close, and it was just enough to not injure him and enough to make him feel pressured.

Yuan quickly began sweating under Xi Meili's powerful Dragon's Gaze, feeling as though there was an almighty being staring down at him as though he was an ant.

A few minutes of pure silence later, once Xi Meili noticed Yuan reaching his limit, she closed her eyes and said, ”Okay, let's take a rest here. Any more and you might suffer internal injuries, which is devastating for any cultivator.”
