"Please give me more advice."
Artoria's eyes glanced back and forth over Jiang Li seriously.
She had heard of the name "God" of Xingyue Academy, but she had never been exposed to it, and she had never heard of rumors that he had practiced kendo.
Looking at his original casual posture, she thought her opponent was an amateur.
But when he stood up straight, she immediately felt a different atmosphere.
The posture is very standard, there is no redundancy, it forms a perfect fit with the whole body, and the movements are not frivolous. This is proof that he has been practicing swordsmanship for many years and has achieved success.
From his body, she couldn't even see any flaw at a glance, and she felt like she couldn't start.
Since there are no flaws, create flaws.
This has always been the truth in combat.
There was no unnecessary greeting between the two of them. Arturia greeted Jiang Li, and then immediately started with her feet, gathering all the strength of her body, and took the initiative to attack Jiang Li.
The whole body's strength is twisted into one through the waist and hips, and the use of the power chain is perfect.
As a woman, with such a petite body, her strength is definitely much inferior to others. Only by using the power chain better can she compete with other swordsmen.
"Click!"
In the blink of an eye, the two wooden knives collided.
The feeling from the sword was somewhat beyond Jiang Li's expectation. Artoria's strength was no worse than that of men. That was not because of her excellent skills, which reduced one point of strength to two points, but because of her sheer strength. .
Artoria remained silent, holding a wooden sword and facing Jiang Li in a stalemate.
Her appearance is indeed very deceptive. Uninformed people will subconsciously think that she has little strength when they see her petite body, but in fact, her physical strength is stronger than that of ordinary men.
Totally innate.
Thanks to this, she became the heir to the family's swordsmanship despite being the second daughter.
But even so, the boy opposite him remained motionless. No matter how she pressed the knife towards him, he remained unmoved and even pressed towards her instead.
It can be seen from the posture that he did not use the power of his legs, but it still made her feel that she was invincible.
She immediately gave up the struggle of strength and moved her legs to the side at a small distance.
Let the opponent strike with great force, while you avoid it with the smallest steps, and then launch the most powerful counterattack from the extreme distance. This is a small skill in kendo called Zhebu.
"Bah bang bang!"
But her opponent had no intention of letting her go. He completely saw through her trajectory and moved out almost simultaneously with her.
Hearing the rapid sound of feet hitting the ground, Artoria's expression under the mask was slightly bitter, her arms could not support her, and she quickly stepped back.
"Snapped!"
Immediately afterwards, the opponent's wooden sword swung at her like a shadow, and hit her ribs with the back of the sword.
"Well!"
Arturia groaned, covered her lower left ribs, and took several steps back.
She was only a little over 1.5 meters tall, with short legs and short steps. She tried to retreat in front of Jiang Li, who had long legs, but it was too late and she was hit easily.
"Effective attack, one point for Jiang Li!"
Scathach's voice came from the side.
Her judgment was not biased towards anyone, and her tone and demeanor were very fair.
"When did this kid learn swordsmanship?"
She looked at Jiang Li with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
She has been teaching at Xingyue Academy for nearly ten years and has secretly observed many students. Jiang Li is also one of her observation targets, but she has never seen him practice swordsmanship.
As a result, the fight was impressive, and he easily suppressed the head of the kendo department.
Although the heroic spirits here belong to the second life and do not have the experience of the first life, and their martial arts level is not as strong as that time, they still have many characteristics, and it is almost impossible for ordinary people to compare with them.
"Could it be him?"
Scathach thought silently in his heart.
She was very calm in the field.
But the crowd outside the venue had already exploded.
"No way? The minister was actually scored first?"
"I've never heard that God is so powerful? He can definitely compete in the national competition on behalf of Type Moon Academy, right?"
"As expected of a god!"
The compliments from the male fans and the screams from the female fans could be heard outside the dojo.
Even Artoria was confused for a moment.
Fortunately, she suppressed some anxiety in her heart in time, and after taking a few deep breaths, she regained her posture.
"The second game begins!"
As Scathach's voice sounded, Artoria rushed forward again.
Her eyes under the mask became more and more fierce, and her eyes scanned Jiang Li several times in succession.
Still can't find a flaw.
In that case——
She mobilized her wrist and slashed at her opponent's neck with an extremely swift cassock slash.
In the kendo competition, the effective striking parts are the face, throat, trunk and wrist. As long as you hit once, you will get one point. The first one to get two points wins.
"Click!"
The knife aimed at the throat was easily blocked.
She was not surprised. This reaction was expected. She quickly put away her knife, kept a certain distance from Jiang Li, and slashed at him in the opposite direction. After being blocked, she struck again.
The offensive is lengthened and the attack speed is increased.
In this way, she tried to expose her opponent's weaknesses and then deliver a winning blow.
But what shocked her was that all the swords she swung were actually blocked. It was as if there was a layer of sword barrier around the opponent's body, making it impossible for water to penetrate.
"Oops!"
Suddenly, her steps stagnated, and she suddenly screamed in her heart that it was terrible.
In a fast and powerful attack, it is true that it is possible to break the opponent's defense, but because the movements become larger, it will also become difficult for the swordsman to control the body. Excessive swings of the sword will inevitably lead to chaos in the power chain and sore wrists. and other problems, thereby exposing flaws.
"bump!"
A black shadow came through the wind.
The knife in her hand fell out of her hand in an instant, and then her wrist hurt, and she couldn't help but take it back.
"Effective attack, Jiang Li scores two points, wins!"
Arturia didn't even react until Scathach's verdict came out.
She actually didn't get a single point and was KO'd head-on.
There was a hint of trance in the expression under the mask.
"……I lost."
After a while, she picked up the knife that fell on the ground.
Then he took off the mask on his face and admitted defeat to Jiang Li with a wry smile.
"Concession."
Jiang Li also took back his wooden sword and bowed calmly.
"Oh oh oh oh! As expected of a god!"
"Passed down, God defeated the head of the kendo club in his first sword duel!"
"Pass it on, God took the first blood of the swordsman!"
"Pass it on..."
"snort."
Scathach hummed lightly.
It would be fine if the heroic spirit Artoria came, but obviously her second life was far from what she was in her previous life. As an ordinary person, she was completely unable to keep up with that level of battle.
She still has a long way to go before she can "recover" herself.
