After leaving the tavern, Qin Ziwen went to spar with Du Yu at the training grounds.
On the sparring platform, he felt Du Yu's oppressive presence more directly.
Across the platform, Du Yu stood with his spear in hand.
On his side was a military formation of eight men, led by Qin Ziwen himself and including Qin Ziwu, Cao Biansheng, Yuan Ming, Yuan Dajun, Wang Yun, Yang Cunshen, and Deng Guang.
The same formation that could hold its own against Du Yu for a long time just a few days ago was broken six times in three minutes today.
Du Yu's great spear moved as if through an empty battlefield. If his strength was previously within the understandable scope of a historical figure, it had now reached the level of the inhumanly fierce heroes from romanticized epics.
It was becoming increasingly absurd.
The group drilled until eleven at night before returning to their respective homes to rest.
After washing up, Qin Ziwen was in bed by almost midnight.
