Chapter 10: Violet Academy (4)

After the two of them took two steps back at the same time, Snub Star took three steps forward, and the long sword in his hand stabbed Gilbert in the chest with a faint silver light. Gilbert also recovered from the shock, took a step to the right, flashed the sword stabbed by the snub star, turned around, and swung the heavy sword with the power of rotation. His heavy sword was longer than Snub Star's sword, so the range of this swing was extremely large, and the force on the long sword in Snub Star's hand had not had time to retract, so he could only retreat. The retreat of the snub star was exactly what Gilbert wanted, so Gilbert seized the opportunity and pressed forward, swinging the heavy sword in his hand wide open, each blow carrying great power, and the snub star was still retreating at this time, and it was impossible to gather strength to confront Gilbert's heavy sword, so he could only continue to retreat. Gilbert has a lot of combat experience, and when he saw the Snub Star's mistake, he seized the opportunity, immediately suppressed the Snub Star, launched his own offensive, and never gave the Snub Star a chance to turn the tables. His heavy sword with an indomitable momentum, like a rushing river, surging towards the snub star, the heavy sword swing completely made up for the flaws in his body, and the snub star's whole body was shrouded in his spiritual power, and every movement was completely mastered by him, so his every slash forced the sneb star to not use all his strength, and retreated.

In the face of Gilbert's aggressive offensive, Snub Star did not choose to resist hard, but took a defensive position, trying to avoid being caught by Gilbert. Finally, Gilbert ran out of breath, and the offensive came to an end, and if he tried to attack hard, he would inevitably not be able to support it, and it was likely that there would be a huge flaw, so he stopped the offensive and planned to switch to the defensive. At the moment when he retracted his attack, Snub Star suddenly stopped retreating and moved forward instead, and the long sword in his hand hit the heavy sword in Gilbert's hand!

With his strange fighting spirit, Snub Star's long sword hit the middle of Gilbert's heavy sword, and Gilbert didn't have time to respond, Snub Star's attack had already hit Gilbert's heavy sword. Gilbert's epee is quite heavy, and only in this way can the power of the epee be brought into play, but it is precisely this weight that becomes Gilbert's burden at this moment. Gilbert's heavy sword was immediately knocked to the side by the blow of the cold star, and it was precisely because of its weight that Gilbert could not completely withdraw his heavy sword, and the empty door was suddenly exposed in front of him. The timing of the snub star's blow is not ingenious, seizing the moment when Gilbert wants to retreat, and using his own attack to create a flaw for Gilbert. But in the final analysis, Gilbert didn't expect that the cold star could turn from a defensive position to an offensive in an instant. Snub had been retreating before, and in Gilbert's judgment, it should not be possible to stop and move forward immediately, because it would be out of balance. However, he just saw that Snub Star took a step forward, this step was extremely ingenious, and somehow, he completely unloaded the force of retreat, allowing Snub Star to re-attack in an instant, what a clever footwork it should be!

Seeing that Gilbert had a flaw, Snub Star stepped forward and waved the long sword in his hand, as if turning into a piece of starlight, attacking all over Gilbert's body, forcing him to resist with his sword. However, the long sword was hidden in that silver light, and if it weren't for Gilbert's ability to use his mental power to probe, he wouldn't be able to distinguish the real long sword. But when his heavy sword collided with the long sword, the force from the long sword did not seem to weaken at all, and each collision caused Gilbert to involuntarily continue to retreat.

Gilbert was shocked in his heart, he had never seen such a sword technique, let alone such a pure, so fierce, and such a deep fighting spirit, he probably understood why the Snub Star only had a ninth-level peak cultivation, but he could fight hard with himself, because his strange silver fighting spirit was too pure, so the strength of the Snub Star's attack power even exceeded his own. On the other hand, the swordsmanship of the snub star was so strange that it didn't seem to need to leave any strength to control the direction of the sword, and every change of direction of the long sword almost did not lose its strength, so the force when it fell on the Gilbert sword would be so strong.

Gilbert's heavy sword is a heavy weapon, and it can only exert its power if it is fully wielded, but under the attack of the snub star, Gilbert's heavy sword is about to collide with the snub star's long sword before it is swung, and there is no way to exert its power at all, but it is a little constrained. The speed of Snub Star's longsword was extremely fast, and the heavy sword in Gilbert's hand could barely keep up with its speed, and could only be forced to collide in a position that was extremely unfavorable to Gilbert. Under the hard bumps again and again, Gilbert's arms already had a feeling of soreness, and the speed of the sword dance was slowly slowing down.

With a "swish", because it was too late to resist, the long sword of the cold star with a silver light broke through Gilbert's body protection fighting qi, cut a shallow wound on his left arm, and then slashed away from another direction. Seeing that he had been injured, Gilbert suddenly stopped retreating, the fire fighting spirit on his body was great, he protected his body with his fighting spirit, ignoring the attack of the cold star, the heavy sword in his hand rotated with the twist of the bear's waist, and slashed out towards the cold star with a brutal attitude, it turned out to be an injury for an injury! Of course, the cold star didn't want to be injured, so he withdrew his sword and retreated, and the distance between the two was reopened. This is exactly the situation Gilbert wants, and he needs to use this move to regain his disadvantage and regain balance on the court, so that he can find the opportunity to use his sword skills again.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened to Ling Jiber, after taking two steps back in a row, avoiding his horizontal slash, he stepped on the ground, and then advanced two steps in succession at several times the speed before, and after Gilbert's heavy sword swept over, he returned to the position just now! Those two steps stepped out gently, giving people a strange feeling, as if there was no such thing as inertia on Snub Star's body.

Seeing this scene, Gilbert's heart was cold, and it was that strange footwork! He didn't expect the impossible two steps of the snub star at all, and at this moment, the heavy sword in his hand had been completely swung, and the door in front of his body was wide open. The Falling Star Sword in Snub Star's hand stabbed forward as he advanced, heading straight for Gilbert's throat. Faced with this sword, Gilbert could barely follow the posture of swinging the heavy sword, and turned to the side with difficulty, avoiding the sword. Although he avoided this sword, his body was already full of flaws, and even his balance was a little difficult to maintain, and it was impossible to avoid the next sword of the cold star. Then, he watched as the other party's silver long sword slashed down gently, and after breaking through his body's protective fighting qi, he stopped again, and the blade was only close to touching his body. Gilbert didn't move, this duel had developed to this point, and the final winner was already obvious, and the snub star just stopped his hand at the last moment, so as not to hurt him, after all, the winner was already divided.

The snub star stopped, reined in the silver fighting spirit, and the faint light in his eyes slowly dissipated. Snub Star put the Falling Star Sword back into the scabbard on his back, and said coldly to Gilbert, "You lost. ”

Gilbert regained his standing posture, put away his flame fighting energy, and also put his heavy sword on his back, looking at the cold star, his gaze was extremely complicated. He never thought that in the face of a junior whose cultivation was not as good as his own, he would actually lose. He could tell that Snub Star didn't have a lot of combat experience, otherwise he wouldn't have made a mistake when he stabbed that sword and let Gilbert find an opportunity. But even in such a situation, he still lost, which made him unbelievable to this day.

Not only him, but Abel who was watching the battle in the audience was also stunned, and couldn't believe his eyes. When Snub Star walked down, he completely forgot what he should do, and just stood there stupidly, unable to even close his mouth: "You...... You ......" His sluggish expression was extremely incongruous with his tall and muscular physique. Snub ignored him and walked straight into the distance, as if he had just done something insignificant.

At this time, Gilbert's voice came from the stage: "I have lost, I promise you, the Franconians will not trouble you because of this matter, and all the grievances between you and the Franconians will be written off, and I swear by the name of Gilbert Franconia." ”

As if he hadn't heard Gilbert's words, Snub didn't even look back, and didn't wait for Able to come back to his senses, so he walked into the distance, disappearing from Gilbert's sight step by step.

Gilbert had by this time recovered from the disbelief of the defeat and regained his composure. He touched the sword on his back, looked at Abel who had not yet left, and sighed, "You are lucky to have such a roommate." When Abel came back to his senses, he found that Gilbert's figure had also disappeared, and he could vaguely hear himself muttering: "Is it lucky or unfortunate for the rest of us to have someone like you?"

Abel listened to Gilbert's words, not understanding what he was talking to himself, but he seemed to understand something. After thinking about it for a while, he patted his head and decided not to think about it anymore, it was important to have breakfast. So, he took a big step and walked to the cafeteria.

Because it was still very early, there was no one passing by around the dueling arena at all, otherwise this wonderful battle would have been seen. However, although this duel is unknown, there is a faint glimpse of its influence from history.

Even in the history of the Orlan Empire, Gilbert was also a famous general, and he was even more famous for his extraordinary courage, once in the case of a huge disparity in troops, he defended the gateway of the Guth Empire to the Orlan Empire, Dorne City, for a month, and finally defeated the famous Red Cloud Army of the Gus Empire. However, for some reason, he never came into contact with matters related to the Star Sword God's snub of the stars, such as the pursuit and killing of the nine princesses of the Langmu Empire, and even secretly extended a helping hand to them. It is said that that night, when he was drunk, he said this strange thing: "Since that time, I have probably understood a little bit about what kind of person that guy is and what his future should be." It was unfortunate to be born in his time. ”
