"I come."
Even the peaceful Ionians couldn't bear to be mocked so openly by a weirdo.
The man who spoke nimbly passed through the crowd who were getting out of the way, with his right hand on the hilt of the long sword at his waist, his face serious and dignified.
"You weird guy who doesn't even dare to show his face, you will taste failure."
"That's what the three people before you said. I wish your sword was as sharp as your mouth."
Holding the wooden pole with his right hand, the weird lamppost pulled the cane out of the ground and pulled it into a beautiful stick flower. The weirdo shook off the dirt at the end of the stick, and the ridiculous and clumsy lamppost pointed directly at the middle-aged swordsman, which gave him some momentum. pressing.
"Wandering warrior, Jax."
"Shadowless Swordsmanship, Lan Chi."
The long sword was unsheathed, and the cold sword shadow flashed past.
Lan Chi understood that if he could win this battle, what he created would become famous in Presidio, and he would take the first step to founding a sect and becoming a grandmaster.
After all, this weirdo in front of him easily defeated the monk and the famous Vastaya warrior. If Jax loses to him, doesn't it mean that the martial arts he created are better than the martial arts used by the loser? ?
Thinking of this, Lan Chi became more competitive again.
The noisy crowd quickly calmed down, and before the fight, the momentum of the two men began to clash with each other.
Facing the bottomless hole in the mask, Lan Chi's eyes were stung at a moment when the breeze blew by, and he couldn't help but blink.
"Open up and fight!"
Having caught the swordsman's flaw, Jax jumped towards Lan Chi who was shocked by his momentum without hesitation, and smashed down the lamppost hard.
Dangerously and dangerously, he leaned sideways to avoid the intimidating blows with his agile body skills. Lan Chi's long sword floated towards Jax's chest like an autumn leaf. The sword that came last was fast enough to kill him. fallen leaves,
The vivid expression of the word "kuai" is in line with the concept of kendo.
Even the well-informed Jax couldn't help but be amazed by the grace of this sword, but for him, just being fast is not enough.
No matter how fast it is, it will not be as fast as those void demons that destroyed Icacia.
Turning from beating to picking, the lamp post spun around. Jax used the end of his wooden staff to block the blade of the sword, causing the elegant shadowless sword to deviate from its original trajectory.
Only a few people with special vision can see that the stress-bearing surface of the jujube wood stick perfectly avoids the sharp blade, and accurately hits the target without being cut off by the blade. The parallel surface of the sword's blade caused the swordsman's steady wrist to shake uncontrollably, and the sword began to go astray.
This fleeting jitter is just a normal small mistake for most warriors, but it can be infinitely magnified in a duel between masters, and Jax is a master who is good at this. He is good at attacking, and even better at attacking. Create gaps in defense and counterattack at will.
Before Lan Chi could use his second sword, the lamppost that followed the rotating jujube stick had already hit the front end of the long sword for the second time. The moment Jax landed, the long sword moved in two different directions. Lan Chi found that he had lost control of the long sword. He was neither advancing nor retreating. The weapon in his hand was trembling involuntarily like waves as if it had a consciousness of its own. The swordsman couldn't help but be a little frightened.
After decades of practicing swordsmanship, this was the first time he encountered such a strange situation.
"it's over."
As the hard metal lamppost struck the long sword for the third time, the long sword flew out uncontrollably, hovering in the air for several times before falling to the ground.
Lan Chi stared blankly at his trembling right hand, unable to react.
For a swordsman, there is no greater failure and humiliation than losing the sword. Jax also understands this. If the swordsman's arrogance is destroyed, as long as the swordsman is willing to calm down and practice with concentration, he may not be unable to reach the peak that has never been climbed. .
On the road to growing himself and pursuing companions to fight against the void, Jax spends most of his time doing two things,
He is eager to learn new things in the competition and integrate them into himself, and he is also willing to give some guidance to the confused warriors. Maybe after the other party has an epiphany, he can become his teacher next time they meet. Even if it is not good, he can improve a bit when he encounters the void. combat effectiveness.
There is no limit to the path of martial arts. As long as there is enough perseverance and a certain amount of talent, anyone can become a master in a certain field.
By plucking the lamppost back into the ground, making it once again a strange 'lighting tool' rather than a weapon, Jax pointed out his opponent's shortcomings.
"Lan Chi, your sword is indeed fast enough to be called 'shadowless', but mere shadowlessness is meaningless. In addition to speed, strength and accuracy are also very important. Beyond shadowlessness, there should be more You can pursue a good path and dodge my blitz. Your body skills are very exquisite. You can try to combine sword movements with body skills to see if you can find a more suitable path."
After a moment of silence, Lan Chi picked up the unfamiliar long sword again and whispered.
"Perhaps you are right, simple speed is meaningless...
Master Jax, can I ask you a question? "
Nodding, Jax didn't care about Lan Chi's changed title. He heard the word 'master' too often and lost it. He seemed to have no interest in it.
"go ahead."
"I just want to know, what is the name of your strange attack method? Why can you make my sword lose control?"
Leaving aside the amateur spectators, the expressions of the other warriors watching the battle changed slightly, and they were a little more contemptuous of Lan Chi who asked others about their true understanding of martial arts without permission.
However, contempt turned into contempt, but the steps never wavered,
You still have to listen, it depends on whether the martial arts master named Jax is willing to say it.
What everyone didn't expect was that Weird Jax had no intention of hiding it and answered without hesitation.
"This is the technique of 'shaking the knife', I also call it counterattack storm,
It is a combat skill specifically used to seize troops. Its principle is to seize troops with troops, break the surface with points, and destroy the balance of the opponent's weapons to achieve an oscillating state. There is a vibration sword master on the continent of Shurima. , I learned it from him. As for his name, I am not in a position to disclose it. "
"I have learned my lesson. From today on, I, Lan Chi, will never set foot in Navoli again."
After bowing sincerely, Lan Chi put away his sword and left slowly in the eyes of everyone with disdain.
Watching Lan Chi leave, Jax glanced around the crowd and remained silent. Once the challenge was issued, those who wanted to fight would naturally come forward, and those who dared not fight would naturally not be unhappy.
Not waiting for too long, a masked long-haired woman wearing a dark green tight-fitting ninja suit with a hot figure stepped forward, took off the hook-claw flying sickle from her waist and shook it twice, her voice was cold and clean.
"Xiyue, please enlighten me."
"Let me tell you first, I won't show mercy to you."
Taking the lamp post again, Jax said solemnly.
However, Xiyue had no intention of speaking again. She approached Jax with a few clicks of her steps, and the deadly flying sickle hooked straight towards Jax's neck. As long as the iron chain wrapped around a chain link, the flying sickle whirled towards him. It would cut Jax's throat. Even if he dodged the flying scythe, the iron chain would hit Jax's body like a long whip and cause serious injuries.
"Just in time!"
Not prepared to dodge the scythe that looked like a spiritual snake, Jax jumped half a step back, and actually used the cast iron frame outside the lamppost to catch the front end of the flying scythe's blade. He twisted the lamp staff hard during the rotation, and directly hit the scythe. The iron chain of the flying scythe and the scythe blade were twisted outside the lamppost. As Jax pulled and released like fishing, Xiyue felt as if her weapon had turned into a ferocious python. It is to pull the unbalanced self towards the bloody mouth.
Seeing that the weapon was about to fall towards Jax with it, Xiyue took the initiative to let go of the handle of the sickle, took out two special smoke bombs from her chest, threw them to the ground, and took out two scimitars.
The smoke bomb exploded, and thick, acrid smoke enveloped the open space. The clang of metal collisions continued to come from the smoke, sometimes far and sometimes near.
Unable to see what was happening in the smoke, the onlookers became a little nervous. In order to avoid accidental injuries, many Ionians who brought their children to watch the fun hurriedly pulled their children away. Only A few warriors and practitioners who were more confident in their own strength chose to stay where they were, waiting for the two sides to decide the outcome.
Lester, who uses magic to sense the battle, is also watching the battle silently. He did not expect that he would meet one of the famous survivors of Icathia by joining in the fun by chance.
Leicester would naturally not let go of the opportunity. Not to mention that he could learn new martial arts skills from the weapons master through sparring. Just the information Jax had about the destruction of Icathia was enough for him to follow closely. The lonely wandering spirit of Icathia who was fighting the war sat down and had a chat. If possible, he could even try to find out the origin of the enhanced magic on the human skin scroll... As long as there were no problems on Jax's side.
"A weak attack with only murderous intent can only deal with ordinary people."
"Well……"
As a muffled groan came out, the fierce battle in the smoke had ended. In Leicester's special vision, a shimmering body smashed towards his right not far away. Looking at the flight path, the sunset moon was uneven and fiery. The body seemed to be about to hit a man with short hair and wearing a white training uniform.
Seeing that the man who knew nothing about the danger he was facing was about to be attacked by an unknown person. When the road was rough, the helpful Lester naturally drew his sword to help and accepted the fatal attack on the man's behalf. heavy fate.
There is always someone who needs to bear the burden and move forward, and he is willing to be such a shining man.
"Sorry."
"Huh? Ouch!!"
The inexplicable apology made the man confused, but before he could react, the man who couldn't see anything clearly felt that he had been hit by some giant beast, and flew backwards out of the smoke, and fell into a coma instantly. Everyone who evacuated the smoke couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Sure enough, the smoke that cannot be seen is very dangerous, and the consequences of being affected are serious.
At the same time, Xiyue's plump body collided directly with Lester's body, allowing Lester, who was well prepared, to take a full blow.
The kind-hearted Lester couldn't help but feel lucky that he received such a powerful attack instead of an innocent passer-by. As he successfully saved an innocent victim, he also had a rare sincere smile on his face. Only Jana the Bluebird calmly watched the farce between humans with her eyes that saw through everything, her bright eyes a little more thoughtful.
She seems to know what her unique disciple likes.
"Um...I'm sorry, let me slow down..."
In an unbalanced state, she couldn't even stand on the ground. It was better to hang on the free manpower pillar to restore her status.
The man who was temporarily unable to respond could only adjust his body to prevent himself from suffocating to death.
After hugging the female warrior tightly again, the man tried to feel the female warrior's somewhat panicked heartbeat to prevent the female warrior from encountering any unexpected events.
If breathing stops, some first aid measures such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation and artificial respiration will inevitably be performed, which will be more troublesome and prone to misunderstanding. After all, he is a gentleman.
I have to say that from the perspective of harmonious relationships between people, personal auscultation is much better than a stethoscope. It seems that the original intention of the stethoscope was that the doctor did not want to get close to the female patient's body?
Sure enough, I can be a butcher, but I can't be a doctor, and I don't deserve to be an angel in white.
"Huha~huha~ The smoke is about to dissipate, you... help me... tidy up..."
"Don't worry, just leave everything to me."
After taking a deep look at the man, the female warrior hesitated for a moment before choosing to believe the warm-hearted 'stranger' in front of her.
The smoke slowly dissipated, and everyone moved away from the peaceful man in white and looked into the field with lingering fear. What kind of intense aftermath of the battle could make a strong martial arts practitioner fall into a deep coma?
Not surprisingly, the first thing that caught the eye was a somewhat lonely figure. Master Jax was leaning on his invincible lamppost crutches alone, silently not knowing what he was thinking. He was not tall but very tall. The body is stuck in place, but seems to be a little rickety at this moment?
Wait, the master's cane... ah no, is the lamppost cane drawing circles on the ground? What is the black energy on the master's head?
On the other side was the female warrior who had fallen to the ground and was being taken care of by a male spectator. The female warrior wore men's clothes in addition to the light ninja uniform, which disappointed many male spectators who were itching. There was also some envy of the good luck of the male audience members.
"This is the way of luck, right? Just by staying inside, some people got the chance to help the female warriors gain favor, while others fell into a coma."
Some people had an epiphany on the spot, and the rest of the people looked at the warrior in white sleeping peacefully again, and couldn't help but feel a little more sympathetic.
Only Lester looked indifferent, savoring the fragrance of pear blossoms in his mouth.
Luck is something you grab, never something you wait for.
