Yu Li studied at home for nearly ten days, according to her, she figured out some things.
Today she followed them out on purpose, wanting to find a monster to test them out.
There are many strange mazes around Lance City.
But in order to pick one that Yu Li could experiment with, Lin Feng still spent a lot of time.
He originally wanted to take her to the "Tree House" maze they went to before, because the slime levels there were strangely low, making them very good targets.
But considering there were still two others who needed leveling, and they still needed to earn some money to subsidize living expenses, Lin Feng chose a slightly more difficult maze.
"Stone Wall" was the name of the maze they were in.
This maze had some fame in Lance City. Its characteristics were many layers, a wide variety of monsters, fast monster respawns, and the difficulty of grinding wasn't too high either.
Many explorers whose strength wasn't particularly strong, but urgently needed money, were very fond of this maze.
"Sis... Sis, you killed all these balls, what do I have left to practice with?" Yu Li pulled on Yuna's clothes, pouting as if she would cry at any moment.
"Oh? I got rid of them instinctively, I'll leave the next one for you."
Yu Li's nose soured as she grievously cried and rubbed her eyes to find Lin Feng, wanting him to uphold justice.
"Brother, Sis bullied me... She clearly said she brought me out this time to test my magic, but didn't leave any for me at all." Yu Li wept bitterly, not difficult to see she was quite aggrieved.
It was understandable, after all how much mana could an eight year old beastman child have?
"Don't cry, there are as many slimes in this maze as you want, there's no shortage at all. I'll let you experiment to your heart's content later." Lin Feng patted her head and wiped away her tears. "Don't cry anymore, Brother will buy you candy to eat later."
Yu Li nodded, sucked up her snot, and held back her tears. She quietly followed behind Lin Feng and ignored her sister.
After Lin Feng had soothed her, he looked up at Yuna. She was helplessly rolling her eyes.
"What? Unhappy?"
Yuna twitched her mouth. She clearly didn't say anything, but it was like she had said everything.
Lin Feng guessed she probably wanted to complain about him spoiling Yu Li.
According to Lin Feng's observations, the two sisters had completely different personalities.
The older one was clever, but more honest. Even if bullied, she would only silently endure it.
The younger one was more clever, crafty and crafty. She was unwilling to suffer the slightest grievance and would immediately find him to cry about it if unhappy.
Just as Lin Feng was lost in thought, Emily, who was walking at the forefront, suddenly stopped. Her bunny ears stood up and she quickly became alert.
"More slimes are coming, quite a lot!" Emily lit her arrows with a torch and shot them forward.
Several giant slimes of varying sizes came into view.
Yuna was about to rush in and go on a rampage, but was stopped by Yu Li.
"Sis, leave these to me."
"Leaving one for you should be enough right? This is just a test after all."
"Let me do them all myself... You've already beaten so many." Yu Li had a crying tone as she hugged her sister's leg.
Seeing they couldn't come to an agreement, she turned her gaze to Lin Feng again.
She used that pitiful appearance to madly hint that Lin Feng should persuade her sister.
This little girl really had a lot of schemes.
"It's fine, these kinds of slimes don't move very fast. Yu Li can run and jump, she can definitely dodge them. Trying it once is no problem."
"Mm!" Yu Li nodded in agreement. She had already treated Lin Feng as a complete backer.
Yuna sighed and put her greatsword back in its sheath, silently watching as Yu Li walked toward the slimes.
Although Lin Feng spoke similarly with his mouth, in his heart he actually wasn't very reassured either. He silently followed behind Yuna, pretending to supervise while actually providing protection.
Yu Li quickly flipped through her book and scanned it. She then raised her right arm confidently.
Seeing the slime slowly approaching, she unhurriedly chanted her incantation.
After a few seconds, a golden six-pointed magic circle generated in her palm.
The rocks on the ground flew into the air and squeezed together to form the shape of a spear.
With one look, Lin Feng recognized this spell.
The earth magic beginner spell "Rock Spear".
With a piercing sound, the spear charged at the slime and directly pierced through it.
It barely caused any damage...
If the opponent was a goblin or something, this power should be enough to instantly kill it. But unfortunately slimes were immune to piercing damage.
"Oh, doesn't seem to do much."
"The power is pretty good! If it was another monster, it could probably one shot kill." Lin Feng was generous with his praise.
Although he had seen much stronger rock spears, for Yu Li as a beginner to learn this much with no guidance in ten days was already very good.
Lin Feng looked back at Yuna again. This guy's face showed some surprise.
It wasn't difficult to see she was astonished by Yu Li's talent.
"I learned other spells too! Brother wait for me!" Yu Li held Lin Feng's hand to keep their distance from the slime, then started flipping through her book again.
After quite a while she raised her hand again. The color of the magic circle changed to red.
This time her chanting time was much longer, still seemingly not very skilled.
After about ten seconds, several fiery red fireballs generated around her arm.
Good heavens, she had also learned the fire magic beginner spell "Fireball"!
Yu Li shouted with all her might. The fireballs flew forward chaotically like headless flies.
After several loud rumbles, the slimes were all ignited and made gurgling sounds. Soon they turned into puddles of viscous liquid.
The power was very weak, the accuracy was also insufficient, and there was even a risk of friendly fire.
But still, as mentioned before, learning this much in such a short time with no guidance was already very impressive.
"Amazing Yu Li! In just ten short days you learned two beginner spells, really awesome!" After speaking, Lin Feng looked back at Yuna again.
The shock on her face had increased.
She was now completely convinced her little sister was a genius.
Yu Li bashfully scratched her head at the praise. "Actually, I kind of fumbled my way into releasing the latter spell. I'm not very skilled with it yet."
"I see. Then keep working on it when we get back. I believe in you." Yu Li nodded groggily and stumbled, falling onto Lin Feng's boots.
Using magic consumed mental strength, or mana in simple terms.
Her current condition was a manifestation of excessive mental strength consumption.
Right, how much mana could an eight year old beastman child have?
"I suddenly feel dizzy... Brother, I want to sleep." Yu Li hugged Lin Feng's leg with a completely exhausted look, as if she couldn't keep her eyes open.
"Can you hold on a bit longer? Using magic more now will train your mental strength. Shoot the rock spear at the front two more times."
Yu Li wearily nodded and started chanting incantations while holding her spellbook. But due to insufficient mana, the launched rock spears were very weak and powerless.
Finally after the third cast she couldn't resist the drowsiness and fell asleep...
