Chereads / Awakening in the Dragon Realm / Chapter 47 - Jousting

Chapter 47 - Jousting

The next day, just after breakfast, the three Tek brothers and Lan Ya hurriedly pulled us, saying that they were taking us to visit the general's mansion, but when everyone turned to the arena, the fox's tail was exposed.

"Brother Edmund, I didn't have time to ask you yesterday because of the rush of time. I wonder if you can teach me now?" Tek said to me with a fist.

I looked at the arena carefully. It was worthy of being the general's mansion. This arena alone was the size of a football field. There were four square arenas in the field. There were several magic pillars around each arena. I knew that these magic pillars were used to cast defensive barriers.

Relying on the energy released by the magic crystals on the magic pillars, they can support a spherical defense shield, which can absorb magic or fighting spirit waves to avoid harming the people watching the battle around the arena.

Outside the arena, there were several weapon racks.

The crowd around gradually increased, and the butler Kesa also ran over to join in the fun.

I knew this fight was inevitable, so I didn't refuse. When Tek saw that I agreed, he picked up the one-handed sword, went up to the ring first, turned around and bowed to me, saying, "Brother Edmund, please!"

I smiled faintly, tapped one foot lightly on the ground, and the whole person flew up lightly, as if I had no weight at all, floated onto the ring, stood opposite Tek, clasped my fists, and said, "Please!"

I took out the wooden sword from the ring, made a sword gesture casually, and stood there casually.

As the saying goes, experts see the doorway, while laymen see the excitement. I stood there casually, without releasing any momentum at all. In the eyes of others, it seemed like I didn't know martial arts at all, but in the eyes of Tek opposite and Ksa in the audience, their expressions were condensed.

Tek's pupils shrank suddenly, and he also put on a defensive posture, and Ksa also showed a surprised look.

I have already entered the Xiantian realm. The biggest advantage of Xiantian is that I can blend into nature at any time and become nature. Of course, there will be no flaws. With the vision of Tek and Ksa, they can naturally find my weirdness.

It seems that as long as I close my eyes, I can no longer feel my existence, which makes Tek's momentum completely unable to land. That kind of weirdness really makes Tek cautious and Ksa surprised.

Knowing that I will not attack first, Tek is no longer polite and shouts: "Watch it!" He rushed towards me with his sword raised.

"This speed is far worse than that of the Saint-level assassin!" I thought leisurely, moved slightly, let go of the sword tip, and raised the wooden sword casually, hitting the middle of his sword spine in an impossible way. With a "ding" sound, I easily removed his long sword aside.

Tek reacted very quickly, and the long sword was lifted up, but I gently touched it with my left middle finger, and the sword was swept away again. The remaining momentum continued, shocking the unprepared Tek to retreat several steps.

"Brother Long is really powerful. In this case, I will also use my full strength!" Rank suddenly burst out with blue fighting spirit, and rushed over with a burst of bombardment, which shocked the people under the ring.

However, I still looked calm, lazily flicking the wooden sword in my hand to block left and right, or leading or unloading, and forcibly dissolving all his *-like attacks, and my left hand, fist, palm or finger, each time attacked him where he must save. Although it was just a false gesture, it invisibly reduced most of his offensive.

"Hah!" With a loud shout, Tek jumped high and chopped down with all his strength. It seemed that he had a firm momentum of going without return.

I shook my head in distress. I thought that the fighting style just now must have made him very depressed! So even though I knew that this move had no chance of hitting him, I still chopped it down.

Raising my sword to block, I finally fought him hard. With a "dang" sound, his powerful sword was completely blocked by me in front of my chest. Tek felt a numbness in his palm and flew up lightly. He suddenly found himself flying backwards.

Incredible! His eyes were full of shock. He couldn't believe that he was actually blown away, and the opponent used one hand.

Looking at Tek who was panting heavily in front of me, I recalled the competition just now. In fact, with Tek's strength barely reaching the lower level of the great swordsman, it was really difficult to arouse my interest. No matter how he attacked with his fighting spirit, it was difficult to cause me any harm.

And his moves were really mediocre, not as delicate and exquisite as those on Earth, so even if I only used the simplest few moves, it was enough to easily resist his attack.

Generally speaking, if the swordsman on this continent did not have a speed far exceeding mine, then there was absolutely no possibility of defeating me.

No matter how strong the fighting spirit you cultivate is, if you don't have enough speed, you will just be a difficult turtle in front of me.

The fight just now has shocked all the onlookers. Everyone can see that Tuke has tried his best, but the ending is unbelievable.

How strong am I to be able to withstand the full-strength attack of Tuke, one of the top ten masters of Laiya School, so easily and even repel him?

The most shocked among all people was Kesa, and only he noticed that my feet had not moved from beginning to end. "Could it be that he is already a sword master?"

"Tuke, is it my turn to attack?" I asked leisurely after his breathing calmed down.

Tuke quickly cheered up and took a defensive posture; "Come on!"

I nodded and raised my hand to stab Tuke with a sword.

My movements seemed so slow, slow enough for everyone around to see clearly, but so fast, as if they had just seen me raise my hand, the tip of the sword had already appeared in front of Tek's chest.

"So fast!" Tek only had time to think of these two words in his mind, and had no time to react at all. He could only rely on instinct and reflex to swing his sword to resist.

The sword flashed, and Tek's sword quickly slashed out, wrapped in a sharp fighting spirit, and directly hit my fast figure.

But Tek didn't have time to rejoice, because he didn't feel that he hit a real object at all, and the person in front of him was disappearing quickly.

"Not good! Afterimage!" Tek just reacted in his mind and felt a cold sword on his neck.

"I give up!" Tek said dejectedly.

With a faint smile, I put the wooden sword back into the ring, floated down the stage, and said, "Thank you!"

Everyone was shocked. Although they knew I was very powerful from the Nick brothers, they didn't expect that Turk couldn't even take one of my moves.

My moves just now were so fast that no one could see them clearly, not even Ksa.

Putting himself in his shoes, Ksa found that he could never dodge this seemingly simple sword.

"Hahaha! You are worthy of being Brother Edmund. Today, I, Turk, lost with conviction." Turk quickly recovered from the blow of failure, and like Nick and the others, he called me Brother Edmund. I secretly praised him. He is indeed a generous person!

But to be honest, it feels pretty good to be called brother by someone older than me!

I smiled and said, "The biggest advantage of my martial arts is speed, so there is nothing strange about this result. If you really count it, the difference in strength between us is not like this at all."

The difference in strength is of course not like this. With my strength that surpasses the Sword God, I don't even need to make a move to defeat him.

Originally, I would not show off my skills like this.

However, as the saying goes, a good man is bullied and a good horse is ridden. If I don't show some strength, then with Philiya's stunning beauty and Alice's petite cuteness, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles in the future.

Since I can't completely conceal my strength, I'll reveal a little bit of my speed!

A great swordsman with super speed, no one should dare to provoke him, right? I thought leisurely.

"Brother Edmund is too modest. Even my mentor, the Sword Saint Viari, may not be able to subdue me with one move, so please teach me more in the future." Tek said respectfully.

I smiled and said, "Let's learn from each other in the future! I wonder when the Laiya Academy will start? In fact, I really want to go to the library of the academy to study."

Tek smiled and said, "The academy will start in five days, and it will be easy to go to the library. Tomorrow morning, I will accompany Brother Edmund to the academy to meet Dean Xiskaya. I believe that with your strength, Brother Edmund, and the relationship between our General's Mansion and the academy, the dean will grant Brother Edmund a library card, so that he can enter and exit the library freely."

I thought about it and said, "That's troublesome."

Since it is so convenient to enter and exit the library, it is naturally the best for me.

As we were talking, we had already left the ring, and everyone in the audience gathered around us. Nick sighed, "It turns out that the simplest moves can have such power! Brother Edmund taught us like that before, but we didn't know how to pay attention to it. It's really a waste of Brother Edmund's kindness."

Rank also said, "Yes! Just a few simple moves can resist Brother's attack. It's really unbelievable. I must practice well in the future."

Indeed, I just fought with Turk, and I didn't use any exquisite moves at all, just a few simple moves.

Turk asked curiously, "How did Brother Edmund teach you?"

Rank immediately told Turk the principles I had said before, and Turk, Kesa and others kept nodding.

In fact, these principles are the most simple in Chinese martial arts, but it's a pity that people here don't seem to know them.

However, as the saying goes, different approaches lead to the same goal. When martial arts are practiced to a certain level, one will naturally understand such truths. Therefore, the truths that Nick and others did not understand before, Tek and Ksa can listen to with great enthusiasm.

Ksa excitedly bowed deeply to me and said, "Brother Edmund is indeed extraordinary. Although these truths are simple, I have never heard of them before. Now every word sounds like pearls. I have been a high-level great swordsman for nearly 20 years. I thought I had no hope of becoming a swordsman in this life, but now I have finally found the direction to move forward. If I can break through in the future, it will all be thanks to the teachings of brother Edmund!"

I quickly helped him up and said repeatedly, "Uncle Ksa is too polite. I can't take it."
