People's physical constitutions cannot be generalized.

Inside the meditation room.

Xue Youyou sat gracefully on the futon, the Guanghan Sword pointing upwards, hovering in front of her.

She knew nothing about the Return to Sheath technique, so she had to listen to Guanghan Zhan teach her from scratch.

That's right, the audacity in shortening the deadline to three days wasn't because he was already confident, but rather because he was momentarily indignant.

In fact, Xue Youyou neither knew how to return to her sheath nor knew how to cultivate the return to her sheath technique.

In fact, Xue Youyou always thought that it was a very happy and cool thing for a Beastmaster to do in battle.

She's a beast tamer, not a cultivator. She should leave the direct combat to her pets; the beast tamer should stay in the back and give orders.

Therefore, in her previous life, she had no interest in returning to the sheath and categorized it as a heretical or unorthodox practice.

Unexpectedly, in this second life, I'm still being forced to learn by my own pet beast.

Xue Youyou was speechless.

Guanghan Zhan officially began his lesson: "The heart cannot tolerate emotions, the sword must never be sheathed."

"The first step in cultivating the return to its original state is for the Beastmaster and the weapon-type pet to achieve a state of mutual understanding."

"Only by achieving true unity of mind and will can one unleash the most perfect returning-to-sheath technique."

Xue Youyou grumbled, "It's just about matching brainwaves, why make it so complicated?"

"babble--!"

Guanghan Zhan didn't tolerate Xue Youyou's lack of attention. He separated a weak wisp of sword energy and lashed out at Xue Youyou's bud: "It's not just about brainwaves, but also about matching bio-waves."

"Also, please don't let your personal emotions interfere with the lesson, otherwise you'll definitely be out of sync."

Xue Youyou's eyes welled with tears from the pain, and she protested, clutching her chest with one arm, "Where are you hitting me?!"

Ignoring Xue Youyou's protest, Guanghan Zhan continued, "Besides the more orthodox method of developing feelings over time, there are also quicker ways."

"That's what I mentioned before about memory sharing."

"Only by witnessing the other person's life in its entirety can one..."

Before Guanghan Zhan could finish speaking, Xue Youyou interrupted again, saying, "Let's skip this step and start from the second step."

What a joke, she doesn't want memory sharing.

Being a transmigrator isn't so bad, but the main problem is that she still has quite a few memories that would make people die of grief. If Guanghan Zhan knew all of them, she might as well just become Zisha.

"Those who achieve great things don't concern themselves with trifles. There's nothing to be ashamed of. Even the most beautiful moon goddess has a dark side. I've seen it all, and I would never laugh at you."

Guanghan Zhan was about to offer some guidance to Xue Youyou when she met with strong resistance.

"No, absolutely not!"

"Sharing memories is worse than just killing me!"

Looking at the snow rolling all over the ground, Guanghan Zhan was speechless.

Even an old comrade who has witnessed the changing of the era didn't say anything, yet this little kid who just started school is being so dramatic.

For a moment, it even doubted whether it had misjudged the situation.

Guanghan Zhan warned, "If you give up on the first step, then our chances of successfully completing the Return to Sheath will be less than 10% of what they originally were."

Xue Youyou asked curiously, "What percentage was originally there?"

"Taking into account your mediocre talent, my patient and professional guidance, and the precious limited practice time, and rounding it up a bit..."

At this point, Guanghan Zhan paused for a moment, then solemnly announced its calculation result: "The probability is zero."

Upon hearing this, Xue Youyou's beautiful eyes widened: "Then should I learn Dun?"

"Since it's already zero, even if we add another ten percent, it's still zero. What's the point of sharing memories? Let's just move on to the second step."

"..."

Guanghan Zhan thought about it carefully and felt that Xue Youyou's words made sense.

In fact, its sea of ​​memories is so vast that even the few fragments that have been recovered so far are probably too much for Xue Youyou's pitiful human brain capacity to handle.

We might as well try anything, even if it seems hopeless.

This time, Guanghan Zhan readily agreed, "Then let's listen to you and go straight to the second step."

Seeing that Guanghan Zhan agreed, Xue Youyou breathed a sigh of relief.

However, at this moment, the naive Xue Youyou was unaware that the truly big one was yet to come.

Guanghan Zhan continued its explanation: "From the moment the contract was signed, I am the sword, and you are the sheath."

"The so-called 'returning to the sheath' process is divided into entering the sheath and exiting the sheath. Therefore, this second step is to select a part of the body as the opening of the sheath."

Xue Youyou, curious, repeated, "Choose a part of the body as the scabbard opening?"

Guanghan tapped the tip of her sword lightly and nodded slightly, saying, "Yes, without a scabbard opening, it cannot be drawn or drawn, let alone returned to its sheath."

"There's no fixed rule for the position of the scabbard opening; it all depends on personal preference."

"For ease of combat, fundamentalists generally choose classic locations like the chest, armpits, back, and mouth. Of course, if the Beastmaster is a bit more eccentric..."

Xue Youyou was so shocked that her mouth gaped open, almost big enough to fit an egg.

As Guanghan Zhan spoke eloquently, she inexplicably felt a phantom pain.

After a few seconds of silence, Xue asked softly, "Then how do we open this scabbard?"

Guanghan Zhan answered casually, "That's simple. You just need to choose a good spot, and then I'll just make a sword strike."

"..." Xue Youyou felt that things weren't as simple as Guanghan Zhan had made them out to be, and couldn't help but ask a few more questions: "Then, may I ask, what were the difficulties in the whole process?"

"Difficult? ... This step shouldn't be difficult for you."

Guanghan Zhan proudly said, "Ordinary beast tamers would need to find a trustworthy pet that is also skilled in healing to complete this step. However, I possess the legendary secret of the immortal laurel, which gives me innate healing abilities. Furthermore, I personally performed the procedure, saving me a lot of trouble."

Upon hearing this, Xue Youyou felt a chill run down her spine, her hair stood on end, and she couldn't help but swallow hard, uttering a soul-searching question: "Didn't you just say that a single sword strike would be enough? Do I need treatment? What does this mean?"

Faced with Xue Youyou's question, Guanghan Zhan replied matter-of-factly, "Think about it, opening the scabbard isn't that simple."

"Even someone as professional as me can't succeed on the first try. Failure is literally like having an incision made in your body."

"But it's okay, I'll heal you quickly, and I promise there won't be a single scar."

"..."

After hearing what Guanghan Zhan said, Xue Youyou was no longer experiencing hallucinatory pain, but was actually in real pain.

Imagine yourself being repeatedly ripped open and gutted by the Moon Goddess.

Even though Xue Youyou had been through countless battles, at this moment, her body trembled involuntarily, and her face turned pale. Although she was already very fair-skinned, she was now deathly pale.

Xue Youyou asked hesitantly, "Then... how many times does it usually take to succeed?"

Guanghan Zhan fell into thought: "Hmm... well, there are many factors to consider: the Beastmaster's talent and determination, our compatibility, and that fleeting inspiration..."

"If it's a peerless genius, it shouldn't take more than three days. In my previous life, the Moon Goddess and I completed this step in just two days and two nights."

"Two days and two nights?!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Youyou felt dizzy and almost fainted.

I've asked you several times, and you fucking tell me it's been two days and two nights!

Xue Youyou was already considering retreating, and now she was even more determined to run away.

Guanghan Zhan scoffed at this: "What's a little hardship if you want to reach the top?"

"Besides, you can't generalize about people's physical condition. Some masochistic beast tamers even think it's enjoyable. Maybe you are too, but you just don't know it."

"Furthermore, according to some esoteric experiences, there's a saying that the more a beast tamer enjoys the experience, the higher the success rate of unsheathing the weapon. You must psychologically accept and enjoy this feeling for the success rate to be..."

"Yuki-onna, quickly hold down your Beastmaster! Don't let her escape!"
