Proofread by Claire.KK
Bai Xiaoli thinks for a while, and then jumps off the top.
Everyone feels hopeless. This critical strike is very destructive, for which they need a break to recover.
Joyce wonders, "Long Lan, hasn't Xiaoli taught you ancient martial arts for so long? Can you jump up?"
Puff—
Long Lan is about to vomit blood. He’s virtually beaten by double strikes without mercy.
"... No." Long Lan is choked with resentment.
Kain asks with a smile: "The way that Xiaoli pedals upward are very special. What’s that?"
Joyce follows to say, "I'm more interested in how Xiaoli bounced to the sky before."
Bai Xiaoli says: "This is mock-moon-step."
"Can we learn it?" Long Lan asks closely, "If everyone in our team can reach the sky in a single bounce, wouldn't we be awesome on the field?"
Cang Yan is tall and has long legs, wearing the outdoor clothes, and his handsome face looks a little fuzzy in the dim light.
He glances at Long Lan, but doesn’t speak.
Based on the relationship between Long Lan and Xiao Li, it’s really not out of line to ask such a question.
If Bai Xiaoli is really a successor of a certain ancient martial family, all his skills will be related to the family. For the continuity of the family, it is impossible to teach others what he has learned. Since Bai Xiaoli promises to teach Long Lan, it may be assumed that what he knows could be passed on to others.
Long Lan's question is undoubtedly expressing the ideas of others. While they don’t know Bai Xiaoli’s real identity, it’s hard to ask such a question. It’s better to not ask the secret knowledge of one family. But they can’t help looking at Bai Xiaoli with sparking eyes.
Bai Xiaoli looks at Cang Yan, then at Long Lan, and finally at others, "Are you able to learn it?"
Long Lan nods hastily. "We are; we are."
All the team members are excited. Is Xiaoli willing to teach them? It will be great if they can learn this skill.
However, Bai Xiaoli says directly on the spot, "You won’t be able to learn it."
The team members: "..." Do you need to be so straightforward?
Bai Xiaoli is afraid that they would not accept it and adds, "Little Lanlan takes one year and a half to learn it, but fails."
"Puff" It’s like Long Lan got his chest shot with an arrow. Long Lan goes crazy, "You haven't taught me at all. How can I learn?"
Bai Xiaoli looks indifferent. "I used it. You didn't learn it by yourself."
Long Lan is confused, "Have you ever used it?"
Bai Xiaoli nods, "Yes."
Long Lan tries hard to recall, "When?"
Bai Xiaoli is extremely sure. "A lot of times."
Long Lan: "..."
Long Lan is about to be tortured to crash by this evil. Holding his head in two hands, he just wants to go mad.

Cang Yan can't stand it anymore. By putting these two unreliable together, don't expect to get a result from their discussion.
He doesn’t want to force his soul beast and says softly: "Can the mock–moon-step be passed on to others"
Bai Xiaoli replies without hesitation, "Yes, if you want to learn. Watch carefully. I’ll do it again."
All are looking at Bai Xiaoli intently. After waiting for a while, they see that Bai Xiaoli is still standing in place without any movement.
Joyce doesn’t understand, "What do you want show us?"
Bai Xiao Li says: "I’ve done."
The team members: "..."
What has he done? This joke has gone too far. Is this the decent character of a teacher? Wake up, Teacher Bai!
Cang Yan thinks of the Bai Xiaoli in the virtual world, a long line of virtual shadows. No matter how fast a person moves, it’s impossible to have virtual shadows. This is a well-known fact. Virtual shadows only appear when the movement speed exceeds the extremity of speed at which people’s retina captures dynamics. It’s the fast speed which deceives the eyes and the brain. To make the field full of virtual shadows like what Bai Xiaoli has done, the speed beyond the capturing limits of the eyes is requested.
"Is it speed?" Cang Yan asks thoughtfully.
Just now Bai Xiaoli let them look carefully. They all stared at Bai Xiaoli and didn't see him doing anything. If Bai Xiaoli is not playing the prank, then there’s only one possibility. Bai Xiaoli did what he did. It’s the fast speed that made him invisible. Even no virtual shadow is left. Should it be the extremity of another level?
"It's speed." Bai Xiaoli admits, "If you want to learn mock-moon-step, you should firstly achieve stepping on the ground more than 10 times within 0.1 second."
All the team members: "..."
"No, no, this is simply not a human speed." Long Lan is the first who abandons.
Kain looks like pondering, "Can a human really do this?"
Rovel scratches the back side of his head and smiles embarrassedly. "It feels so hard."
Joyce is already stunned. "This is not about difficult at all, but something what human can’t achieve."
Cang Yan has already expected that it wouldn’t be simple. But he never thought that it would be so difficult. He also feels very helpless. They exclaim at Xiaoli’s ability with admiration. They just get to know what level of difficult it is when they really start to learn. They can’t learn it overnight at all.
When everyone is trying hard to understand the problem of speed, Bai Xiaoli suddenly says, "I'm hungry. I want to eat the meat of the little rhino."
It's very late now, and as soon as Bai Xiaoli reminds, the others feel hungry, too.
Bai Xiaoli is not a beast which can keep the good stuff from being eaten. He can't wait to taste the meat of the rune beast.

All work together, some pick up the branches for fire, some handle the food and others put the tools in order. Working in cooperation can speed up. Knowing nothing about these, Bai Xiaoli ties the ropes brought by Cang Yan and Joyce to the stone inside the cave.
Since they can't jump up like Bai Xiaoli, they can only climb up by the ropes. However, they will only climb up when they need to rest. Now they are grilling at the foot of the mountain.
In front of the fire, a few people in a circle are grilling meat. When they come out, they have prepared as much as possible. At least the ingredients for the barbecue must be brought, especially when they have a typical foodie in the team. The ingredients can’t be forgotten.
Sitting beside Cang Yan quietly, holding a plate in his hand, Bai Xiaoli is gazing at the rotating barbecue on the fire. Just as e smells the scent of the meat, his saliva is about to flow down. When the saliva is wiped off for the fifth times, the first batch of meat is finally cooked.
Cang Yan puts a bunch of barbecue on Bai Xiaoli's plate, "Be careful, it’s hot."
Then he picks up a bunch of metal stickers and continues to barbecue. With Bai Xiaoli's appetite, this is not enough at all.
Grabbing one and sending it to his mouth, Bai Xiaoli constantly blows because it’s so hot. But it still can’t stop him pursuing hard to eat meat. After just one bite, Bai Xiaoli never stops then. Enjoying eating, Bai Xiaoli is fully satisfied and squints a pair of big eyes comfortably, like a happy kitten.
Smiling at him, Cang Yan can’t help but touch his head. "Eat slowly, these are all yours, don't burn yourself."
Looking at the slightly scorched barbecue he grills himself, Joyce swallows it with his eyes closed. There’s no sweet of meat, but bitterness full of his mouth. He looks enviously at Bai Xiaoli's plate and complains: "Brother, I know that you’re good at cooking. When we were hunting together before, I could still taste the food crafted by you. Now you just forget your brother after getting a beauty. Give me a little.”
"No!" Bai Xiaoli who is enjoying is immediately on his guard for a formidable enemy. If there are small ears on his head, he must prick up his ears warily. He refuses very decisively and ruthlessly.
Joyce’s heart is broken.
Cang Yan raises an eyebrow, "Hear that? Xiaoli is the one in charge. "
Joyce: "..."
Can't you stop abusing me who’s single? This sweet interaction between the lovers, he refuses to see!
He has just been single and now is forced to watch on the sweet interaction between the lovers. It’s certainly that the single would be abused. He must get rid of being single.
Joyce looks around. Long Lan is also not good at cooking. Fortunately, Rovel has a bit ability. His roast is not bad. At least the surface is not burnt. Long Lan has to be supported by Rovel after.
Joyce steps over and takes one to eat. The taste is not as good as that of Cang Yan.
Looking at the silent Kain and seeing that he enjoys eating while roasting, Joyce leans over instantly to scrounge food.
"Brother, how boring it is to eat alone, let the senior eat with you?" Saying this, Joyce picks up a roast consciously and eats on his own.
Kain says with no mercy, "You don't have to stay with me."
Joyce ignores this sentence directly, "Oh, wonderful cooking, delicious."
Although not as good as Cang Yan's roast, but much better than that of Rovel.
The meat of rune beast contains strong and sufficient rune power. Everyone present only eat less than ten pieces and can't eat anymore. The feeling of fullness makes them uncomfortable. They’re not really full, but there’s too much power that they can’t bear.
So, four people begin to practice with their eyes closed, refining the rune power contained in the meat.
Cang Yan only eats two pieces to appease his hunger and doesn’t eat too much. He has to grill for Bai Xiaoli. Bai Xiaoli doesn’t know how much he has eaten. He’s like a bottomless pit, and can never be fully filled.
"So amazing! I feel my star power has grown!" Long Lan says happily.
"My star power also grows." Rovel scratches his head shyly.
Kain smiles and says, "The meat of the rune beast is truly extraordinary."
Joyce looks at the explosive-fire-rhinoceros next to him, and the more he looks at it, the more he hates to leave it. It’s a pity that they could not take the whole rune beast with such sufficient power.
The four calm down and begin to refine the power from the meat.
In this way, it is like the star power is eaten and merged into their bodies. Compared with absorbing the star power from the universe, the speed of practicing in this way is many times faster. As long as they can eat them and successfully refine them, then these power will be their own.
They four are busy refining their power. Here Cang Yan and Bai Xiaoli are chatting while barbecuing.
"When did you start to practice star power?" Cang Yan always has doubts in his heart, he cares especially about that he couldn't share his star power with Bai Xiaoli.
"One year and a half ago." Bai Xiaoli keeps eating and finds time to answer.
Cang Yan is shocked in mind, so it is. His practice is directly linked to that of Bai Xiaoli.
At the age of 16, Cang Yan's summoning of his soul beast seemed to have failed. In the next two years, his body was too weak to have a normal life, not to mention practicing. I Need to Eat Rune Debris to Mend My Body
