Chapter 108: Breaking Through Bronze
In this competition, Zaha and Clinton were in different moods.
Both sides use the iron swords used for guild testing, a simple swordsman starting style, and the two iron swords are clashed together.
In terms of strength alone, there is not much difference between Clinton and Zaha, a bronze powerhouse, on the contrary, the tall Clinton has more advantages. However, Zaha has mastered the initial use of qi, and his strength and speed can surpass the ** limit at any time. Although there is only a line difference between the early stage of bronze and the peak of black iron, it is the gap of this line, and the strength has increased exponentially.
The first blow of Zaha used ** power, but did not exert full strength, and the two sides looked evenly matched.
In the second blow, Zaha unleashed his sword energy, exerted three points of strength, and stopped Clinton's attack with a single sword, and knocked him back several steps.
Moving his arm, which was sore and numb from the hard impact, Clinton shouted without fear:
"Come again!"
As he spoke, he swung his sword and slammed forward again.
This time, Zaha was a little annoyed and stopped keeping his hand, and at least used eighty percent of his strength to fight back.
When it comes to combat concepts and moves, Zaha, who has not received much orthodox training, is not as good as Clinton, who is endowed with the Book of Truth.
However, Zaha, who was born in the wild road, can come to this day, and naturally has its own uniqueness, and the tricky moves that are different from the orthodox swordsmanship can attack from the perspective of violating the physiological condition under the effect of the sword qi in the body, and suddenly use it, which can make opponents of the same level overwhelmed, not to mention a warrior like Clinton, who is a lot lower.
However, Clinton is obviously extraordinary, and he has found a way to survive in the predicament created by the other side, and is struggling to support under the unforgiving offensive of Zaha's sword.
Soon more than 50 moves have passed, Zaha saw that he had used eighty percent of his strength, and still did not solve an opponent at the peak of black iron, he couldn't help but admire Clinton's strength and perseverance, but admiration is admiration, the dignity of being a bronze powerhouse does not allow him to lose to an opponent under bronze, so Zaha decided not to delay any longer and used ten percent of his strength.
In fact, if Zaha uses his strongest strength as soon as he comes up, Clinton will not be able to support it until now, and it is estimated that he will lose if he can't make a few moves.
But at first, Zaha was contemptuous, only used three points of strength, then was annoyed that he did not defeat the opponent, and then increased his combat strength to eighty percent, and finally admired the tenacity of the opponent, so he went all out.
In the end, regardless of the brain's computing ability, ** activity ability, and the sensing of the external environment, they have reached the peak state that has not usually appeared, and between life and death, Clinton has completely exerted the limit of what he can achieve, and touched the critical point between the peak of black iron and the bronze rank.
I saw that his whole body seemed to be thrown into a steamer, his skin was red, and the heat on his head was rising. Suddenly, Clinton let out a loud shout, ignored the attack of the opponent's iron sword, closed his eyes on the spot and stopped the attack.
At this time, Zaha didn't expect that the opponent would suddenly stop in the middle of the battle, and it was too late to stop the change of moves with the sword that originally stabbed Clinton's heart and lungs. If Clinton could swing his sword to block, this sword would not be a killer move at all, but now Clinton suddenly withdrew his hand, and the sword momentum was out, and suddenly, even if Zaha was an experienced bronze powerhouse, he had no time to change his move, so he could only forcibly use his sword qi to reverse the angle of this move, and turn the target of attack from the opponent's heart and lungs to his ribs.
Although forcibly using sword qi to reverse the move, it will cause some damage to your **. But after all, this is the subordinate of Lord Dalaran, the young lord is not only a hereditary nobleman, but also a powerful bronze mage, there are two bronze powerhouses under his command, and there is a teacher like the first mage of Beijun, any one is not something he can offend.
What's more, there was also a bronze high-level powerhouse watching from the sidelines, so at that moment, Zaha still decided that he would rather suffer some minor injuries himself than let the other party suffer heavy injuries.
At such a critical moment, Uther, who had been following the battle, suddenly made a move.
A long sword was like a steel wall, placed horizontally in front of the tip of Zaha's sword, Zaha only felt that his sword stopped as if it had hit a mountain, and his whole body strength was blocked by the momentum of the other party, and as long as he made the slightest abnormal movement, he would face a fatal blow.
"Alright, Mr. Zaha, your strength test has ended, please wait a moment, your professional grade certificate will be in your hands soon. ”
Uther turned his gaze to Clinton, who was standing still, and it was only then that Zaha slipped into a cold sweat, feeling for the first time the real gap between himself and the high-ranking knight.
Although he once fought side by side with Uther in the Ogre Battle, Uther at that time only showed his super defense and assisted everyone in the battle.
Zaha instinctively thought that Uther was not only the strength of the bronze high level speculated by several other bronze powerhouses, but this person was at least the peak of bronze, and even had the strength of the silver level.
Even the two bronze high-level mercenary group captains couldn't give him this feeling of being irresistible.
Zaha didn't know that his guess was close to the truth. Unlike summoned warriors like Clinton, who are from ordinary second-class soldiers, Uther and others, including Donald, who have a hero template, have strong strength in leapfrogging challenges.
Each hero has his own growth direction, although Uther's current level can only be regarded as a bronze high-level, but his strength is growing faster than Donald's master, and he is a paladin class with both offense and defense, and his solid foundation is terrifying. So by far the three heroes have climbed the fastest level. In addition to the heroic skills and the power of the Holy Light, Uther has already mastered the use of sword intent and momentum that only silver powerhouses have at the bronze level.
Paladins are already good at perceiving the great will of the Holy Light of holiness, fraternity, tolerance, and kindness, and can even merge their own spiritual will with that existence, Uther can comprehend the sword intent right now, and Donald, as the master, is not surprised.
Having seen the power of the Abyssal Will before, and felt the will power of a strong man above gold in the royal capital, although Donald himself is mainly a legal profession, but in terms of will, his comprehension is no less than that of a warrior like Uther.
No matter what the world, demons are destroying nature, Invaders and tumors that destroy the world, for such an evil and chaotic existence, the will of the natural world will change from tolerance to anger, the demon hunter steals and purifies the power of the demon, so that the natural environment is restored to balance, and it is most appropriate to describe it with the words "Heavenly Walker", the main world has been invaded by the abyss plane many times, for the plane will of the main world, all abyssal creatures are enemies, Donald eradicates the enemy, steals the power of the abyss, and naturally will be favored by the great natural will, so he also has a sense of the natural will。
If it weren't for the fact that under the silver, the mage's will would be large and divergent, and condensing the will too early would affect his mage's cultivation, and Donald would have mastered a similar sword intent long ago, reaching the point where he was invincible under bronze like Uther.
If Donald hadn't tried his best to suppress his promotion in order to lay a good foundation, his current level would have surpassed Uther, and after Kael'thas was born, he planned to wear two positions like his master Donald, and had been studying and studying the spells of the mages of this world, so although his strength had improved, his level had not changed, and it was still the middle of bronze.
After a short cup of tea, Clinton, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes violently, shouted, and swung the iron sword in his hand towards the black iron pine target on the side.
Listening to a choking sound, under the injection of new power, the iron sword entered the wood five inches, and this attack power has surpassed Zaha, a bronze early stage powerhouse.
If Zaha is allowed to fight Clinton again, it is not certain who will win and who will lose!
A black iron pinnacle broke through in front of his eyes and became a bronze powerhouse of the same status as himself, and Zaha, a bronze adventurer, couldn't help but feel a little stunned.
After Clinton got over the joy of the moment of breakthrough, he immediately thanked Zahashi and said:
"It's been a while since I reached the peak of Black Iron, and I haven't found a breakthrough opportunity, and I have to thank Mr. Zaha for his help today!"
Zaha smiled a little reluctantly and said:
"Congratulations to Commander Clinton on being promoted to bronze, and it's my honor to be able to witness this scene!"
After a few polite words, Zaha didn't have the heart to stay any longer, so he took the certificate that the Uther and the three had given him, turned and left the testing site.
The news that another bronze powerhouse had emerged in the Dalaran territory quickly spread among the adventurers, and for a while, people's sense of identity with the Dalaran Adventurers' Guild was also greatly strengthened.
Donald was very happy to hear the news of Clinton's promotion, and immediately ordered Bush and George to go to the Adventurers' Guild to support, and take turns to preside over the appraisal in place of Clinton, so that Clinton could have time to consolidate the strength that had just been promoted.
After learning about the promotion process of the new bronze powerhouse Clinton from Zaha's mouth, many adventurers who had been stuck at the peak of black iron for a long time had hope and began to challenge the same level of warriors and high-level bronze powerhouses everywhere, which made several bronze powerhouses among the adventurers tired of it and simply closed their doors.
However, the reasons and ways for everyone to advance are basically different, and the adventurers have been making trouble for a few days, but none of them have broken through to become a bronze powerhouse in one fell swoop.
For the series of changes that have taken place in Dalaran's territory, all forces in the Northern County are very concerned, especially their Archon of the Northern County, Viscount Macbeth, the lord of Boulder City.
Seeing that in just a month or two, Donald's strength had grown enough to compete with his own family, and Macbeth had now completely lost the confidence to solve the opponent on his own.
Macbeth made up his mind, and the plan proposed by Bolton was put on the table, but he had to make a few moves to paralyze his opponent before he could deliver the final blow.
As a result, all kinds of minor troubles appeared in the industries belonging to the lord in the Dalaran territory.
The people who were looking for trouble were like ruffians and scoundrels, and there were also foreign merchants and adventurers, and there was so much chaos at one time that even the garrison could not deal with it.
In the villages of Wind Chime and Ashwood, there were small fights, such as making trouble in hotels and taverns, affecting their business, etc., and there were members of the hunting team who were temporarily in charge of law and order, and the situation was basically resolved, and the perpetrators were temporarily detained.
However, there are many shops and workshops in Twilight Town, most of which are the merchants' industry, and if someone finds fault, if they are not dealt with in time, it will inevitably lead to losses for the merchants, and in serious cases, they will even be unable to do business and withdraw from the territory of Dalaran.
Anyone with a discerning eye could have guessed that this was someone who was dissatisfied with the young lord and purposefully harassed Dalaran.
Donald didn't panic at all, Twilight Town was within the range of the natural enchantment of the Tree of Life, and he could know what the enemy was doing at the first time, and he could find out in advance even before the other party had acted.
