The Atrocious Werewolf Prince

She had originally been a little interested in the talent Ezra had displayed, but she was now exceedingly disappointed.

No matter how good one's talent is, if one was unable to realise one's faults, one would not be able to walk far on the road of martial prowess.

Hence, she could no longer be bothered to stay a single second more and began to turn around to leave.

Upon seeing this Ezra Zephyr immediately said, "I don't think you'll believe me if I told you I've already knitted 31 yarns… how about this, why not you punch me once to see?"

"31 yarns?" Ravina Inge gnashed her teeth. "It's only been five days and you've knitted 31 yarns? Are you insulting my intelligence?!"

Ezra silently facepalmed. If not for the Spirit jade, he would not bother explaining so much. He immediately extended a hand and beckoned. "Quit being so wishy-washy, you'll know once you attack."

Ravina Ingale laughed in anger. This was the first time she had heard others make such an assessment of her.

"Fine, I'll let you know the price of making fun of me!" Her hand clenched as vigorous spiritual energy abruptly exploded from her body. Her spiritual energy was fiery-red, like a wave of fire.

Ezra's eyes narrowed slightly. She was indeed a formidable individual and was likely top tier even amongst the 3rd level Core Formation practitioners.

In a real fight, she could be a good opponent to Xyr.

~SWUUSSH~

Ravina's foot pushed off the ground as her body shot forward. Surging spiritual energy gathered towards her hand as a simple punch was sent blasting forth.

~BANG~

The air was blasted away by the punch, seemingly causing a sonic boom. The lady may look as delicate as a flower, but her attack was extremely simple and violent.

If a 2nd level Core Formation disciples were to face this seemingly small fist instead, they would likely be forced to his knees.

However, Ezra did not move at all. He watched the fist winds blast towards him and suddenly took a step forward. His hand reached out, black lightning thundering out as he met Ravina Ingale's punch head-on.

~THUUD~

A muffled noise rang out as winds violently unfurled, blowing away the scattered rocks around them.

However, the instant palm met fist, Ravina's face suddenly changed. she had felt a large portion of her power being neutralized when it surged towards Ezra Zephyr. It felt as if most of her punch had landed on air.

Ravina concentrated on Ezra Zephyr's palm, only for her heart to shake violently. She had seen his palm seem to turn slightly incorporeal at this moment, giving off a faintly gossamer feeling. "How can this be?!"

The lady in red could not help but cry out. She clearly understood that this was a sign that someone was about to reach the initial stage of the Gossamer Steps technique. Only then would one be able to make part of their body gossamery, causing the power of any attack that landed on that part to be greatly neutralized.

This was the essence of the Gossamer Steps technique. When mastered, any attack that landed would feel as if it had struck air, causing a portion of its power to be neutralized.

The fact that Ezra Zephyr was able to make his hand gossamery meant that his mastery of the Gossamer Steps technique had already far surpassed her own. With the seven yarns her friend had currently knitted, achieving with a feat would be impossible for her.

The prince slowly withdrew his hand as it rapidly returned to normal, and let out a soft laugh of satisfaction. The Gossamer Steps technique was marvellous indeed, and would greatly enhance his survivability once mastered.

This would be an invaluable skill indeed to counter any sudden or sneak attacks.

At the second level, one would be able to turn the entire body gossamer, making one akin to the wind.

As for the third level, it was even more amazing. One would be capable of full gossamery, giving one the ability to merge with the wind around. From a certain point of view, it could be said to be invisibility that could also avoid others' detection.

Overall, the Gossamer Steps technique was a wonderful technique that could pretty much cover every aspect of survivability, from defense to escaping and hiding.

This was also why Ezra had not hesitated to choose it the moment he saw it.

"You…" Ravina Ingale blankly stared at Ezra Zephyr, not knowing what to see for a time. What had just happened was way too shocking. She was unable to believe that Ezra Zephyr was nearly at the initial stage after a mere five days of practice.

"You've really knitted 31 yarns?"

Ezra simply chuckled. "You should at least believe your own eyes, right?"

"How did you do it?!"

The prince's smile widened. "Perhaps my talent is just better… how about it? Are you interested to send your friend here? I should be able to guarantee you reaching the first level of the Gossamer Steps technique in ten days."

He did not dare to make any guarantees for the second level, because he could already feel how increasingly difficult it was becoming to sense and knit the latter yarns. Even with his talent, it would take some time.

Ravina's eyes flickered brightly as she stared at Ezra Zephyr. She had originally been under the impression that he was spouting nonsense. Who could have expected that he would be so capable? Even without anyone's guidance, he had rapidly progressed at such an astonishing speed.

"This is fifty Spirit Jade pieces."

Ravina Ingale was a swift and decisive person. Since she had already personally witnessed it, there was naturally no need to delay. With a flick of her wrist, a cloth bag was thrown towards Ezra Zephyr, the clear tinkling of spirit jade pieces clearly heard as it flew through the air.

"How generous." Ezra Zephyr raised his thumb in response. She was indeed a rich little lady, not even a single grumble before paying the full amount. To think that he was originally planning on only taking half the payment first.

"But where did you get so many Spirit jade pieces?" the prince curiously asked. He had not seen Ravina Ingale undertake any missions, and yet she seemed to be very wealthy.

"Why be such a busy body." the lady rolled her eyes at him.

The prince nodded in understanding. As expected, she did have ties in the sect.
