Xie Rena snorted coldly and said, "Why are you so excited? How can I say that she has anything to do with you? Who is she you?"

"Not only is she my teacher, she's my good friend, but I also treat her as my family, and I will never allow you to be so disrespectful to her!" said Kersmund angrily, his eyes like they were about to burst into flames, and his hands were clenched into fists.

Dragons have reverse scales, and they will be angry when they touch them. And Marit is like a reverse scale existence to Marksmerd, and if someone is disrespectful to Wonder, it is touching Marksmerd's Reverse Scale, which will inevitably make him angry.

"Hehe, boy, it turns out that you have such a good relationship with her! Then it seems that you must have been influenced by her, so are you now guided by her, and you have found your true self? Or do you want to learn from her, see through the world, and not seek fame and fortune?" said Serena sarcastically.

"No, he wants me to hold on to myself, and I will do as she wishes, never bow my head, never extinguish my conscience, never lose myself!" said Kersmund firmly.

"You're really adamant, but it's just because you're just a poor boy who has nothing and hasn't seen much of the world. When you will do whatever it takes to get rich and beautiful in the future, or when you kill people and set fire to them for the sake of power and land, you will feel how naïve, naïve, and ridiculous what you have just said! The greed and ambition in human nature, which you cannot and should not resist, will make you like a hungry wolf, greedy and ferocious. Xie Rena said coldly.

"Hmph! Marit has warned me a long time ago that man cannot be easily measured and deceived by something, and that a man's greatest enemy is always himself. Man's greed and ambition are unlimited, but man's real needs are finite, and I just need to keep that in mind, and it will be enough. Ksmund replied in a-for-tat manner.

"I've said it all, you're just a poor boy with nothing, and I won't believe a word of what you're saying now. In addition, I hope that Marette not only made you understand these big truths, but also taught you some real skills. Xie Rena sneered, "I just heard that you also participated in today's athletic conference, so I wish you can pass the first round." ”

"One day, I'll stand high enough to prove myself to you, and today's athletic meeting is the first step I've taken!" said Kersmed aloud.

"Then don't fall and get up at this first step!" said Serena with a sneer, and walked away.

Kersmod suppressed his anger, if it weren't for the fact that Serena was a woman, and because she was also a student of Marit, Germerd would have taught her a lesson.

After Serena left, Korsmod was furious and slammed his fist on the railing in front of the stands, causing the entire column of railings to tremble.

Those who looked up to watch the two arguing in the field immediately lowered their heads, and those who were busy continued to be busy, and those who were lazy continued to be lazy.

By the time it was light, the snow had largely stopped, and the first game of the first round of the tournament had officially begun.

In the first round, a total of 64 players participated. The 64 players were divided into 4 teams of 16 each. Kosmerd was on one of those teams, and like his 16 teammates, he wore a yellow-capped helmet and yellow armor, except that the number 64 was written on the piece of paper on his back. This number will accompany him throughout the competition.

The first round is divided into two matches, each game has two teams, that is, 32 people play, basically the 16 people who win each game can advance to the next round, and the 16 people of the defeated team, are eliminated, unless there are outstanding performers among them, with their skills and courage recognized by the arena boss, can become a special case and be allowed to enter the next round.

And this kind of exception is allowed to occur in the first two rounds of the game, starting from the third round, the player who loses the game will be eliminated directly.

Kosmoed's team was one of two teams competing in the first game of the first round. When the two teams came out of the preparation room, there was a burst of enthusiastic cheers and shouts from the stands.

Although it was still very early, most of the seats in the stands were already full. The competition will last one day and will be divided into six rounds, three in the morning and three in the afternoon. The afternoon game is key, and many spectators will choose to watch it in the afternoon, and usually only people who are very fanatical about the competition will come to the stadium so early.

In fact, there are more such people in the audience, which is the biggest reason why the athletic games can be held so early. In addition, the big melee in which many people participate can only appear in the morning game, that is, the first three rounds of the game, and many people are keen to watch such games.

The yellow team on which Kersmod is on the side, and the red team on the opposite side, both wearing red top helmets and red athletic armor, stand in designated positions at each end of the arena and wait for the game to begin.

When the two sides confronted each other in the air, there was thunderous cheers and shouts in the stands. But what was now focused on the cheers of the crowd or the state of his opponents or teammates was as he stared intently at an object in his left hand.

It was a practice bow, the wood was hard, the string was taut, and it was light, and Kersmund held it in his hand, feeling that it was weightless. In terms of weight, it was far from the weapon he was used to, and if he swung it, it would definitely make him feel very uncomfortable, of course, this was a bow, not suitable for swinging and attacking, and it was completely different from the weapon he was used to in terms of usage, and this was the biggest headache for him now.

Marit taught him to use several weapons, but not to use a crossbow, and as a Nord, like most of his countrymen, he had a natural disadvantage in using weapons like the crossbow.

During his two years at the Royal Military Academy in Sagos, Ksmund also spent time learning how to use a crossbow. The crossbow is not difficult to learn, and it is not difficult to master it, and after ten days of study, Kersmund has mastered some tricks of using a crossbow, and using a crossbow to deal with robbers will soon be able to kill the robbers.

The bow was not difficult to learn, but it was very difficult to master, and he knew at the time that he needed to go through a long period of training before he could become a good archer.

：。 At that time, after learning the bow and arrow for ten days, Kersmed also used the bow and arrow to deal with the robbers, but found that it would take a long time to shoot down a robber with a bow and arrow, because he could not do any harm with a bow and arrow.

The powerful power that he could confidently slash with his sword seemed to be blocked by the bow and arrow in his hand, and he couldn't exert it at all, as if he needed another kind of power to draw the bow and shoot the arrow.

On that occasion, after shooting several arrows to knock out one of the robbers, he finally chose to draw his sword and finish off the robbers. From that day on, he had not used a bow or arrow again.

In the first match of today's athletic conference, he was assigned exactly a practice bow and a bag of practice arrows, as well as a very short wooden practice dagger.

He knew that the weapons in the athletic tournament were randomly assigned, but he didn't expect that he would be assigned a weapon as hard as the bow and arrow. He looked at the practice bow in his left hand for a long time, and then at the practice dagger in his right hand, feeling very embarrassed, and shook his head involuntarily.

Just when he was feeling overwhelmed, a shout came from the stands: "Game on." ”

After this shout, the cheers of the audience suddenly reached a peak. And the two teams in the field also let out a battle cry one after another, and charged towards each other.

Kersmod had planned to charge after his teammates with a dagger, and when he had the chance, he picked up a weapon and continued the fight, but this illusion was soon shattered.

On the opposite side, a man on a horse with a practice riding spear actually bypassed the teammates who were charging in front of Kersmer, and attacked Kersmer who was walking in the rear, as if he saw that Kersmer was an archer with weak melee ability, and wanted to deal with him first, not giving him the opportunity to use a bow and arrow to attack from a distance in the rear.

To make matters worse, he was not the only one rushing towards Ksmerd, but the other man on horseback with a heavy practice sword also made a big circle towards Ksmerd from the other side.

As is customary, in the first two rounds of the competition, the players don't care too much about the victory or defeat of their team, they care more about their own performance, because after achieving outstanding individual performances, they don't have to worry too much, which makes it easier for them to advance, so the general idea of the players is that before they are knocked down, one more is counted.

As a result, players like Eksmer, who are considered to be less capable of melee combat because of their weapons, are the most likely targets to be targeted.

The two horsemen on horseback rushed towards Kersmer with great vigour, and Korsmer's teammates were all charging straight forward at the moment, some of them were also going to raid the opponent's archers, and many more were about to fight with those opponents, no one cared about Kelmer, and no one came to support him.

Kersmund was in a very difficult situation, and the man with the practice spear who had rushed at him first had made a spear charge against him, apparently trying to knock him down with a single blow.

In the face of the man's relentless charge towards him, Kosmerd struggled to keep his composure. He stood there, motionless, and when the man was less than fifteen feet away from him and could rush in front of him in an instant, his right hand suddenly raised, and after a moment's pause in the air, he threw the exercise dagger in his hand at the oncoming man.

Although this practice dagger was very light, probably about the same weight as a small stone, it was thrown with all the strength of Kersmode, and it was immediately endowed with a strong impact.

The rider who was riding a horse and holding a practice spear charged at Ksmerd saw Ksmerd throw the practice dagger at him, and it was his head. He didn't have time to dodge, and he didn't bother to dodge, for he seemed to be unconcerned about the wooden dagger coming at him, as he seemed to be protected by a competitive helmet on his head.

The next moment, the dagger smashed on the competitive helmet on his head, and after hearing a "bang", the head of the person wearing the competitive helmet fell backwards violently under the impact of the practice dagger, and drove his entire body backwards, while his crotch horse was moving forward quickly. There is no doubt that the man immediately fell off the horse.

The man was knocked down from his horse by a dagger, and it was the result of a strong impact. And this extremely strong impact force included not only the force of Kersmord's throw, but also the reaction force that the man's head and dagger were subjected to when he collided with the dagger during the rapid charge on his horse.

The man was hit by a dagger and fell backwards to the ground along with his practice lance and shield, while the practice horse he was riding was still charging towards Kersmer.

Seeing the horse rushing towards him, Kersmund also rushed towards it, as well as to the side. When the horse was only one step away from him, he jerked out a hand, grabbed the reins of the horse, and rolled over on the horse.

At the same time as he mounted his horse, another opponent on horseback with a heavy practice sword approached him.

Of course, Ksmerd had noticed him, and the moment the head of the horse he dismounted was less than two feet from Ksmed's back, and he had swung his sword and slashed at Ksmerd from the right, Ksmerd jerked the reins of his hand to the left, turned the horse's head, and ran to the left, narrowly avoiding his sword.

The man slashed his sword into the air, and without pause, continued to ride his horse in pursuit of Ksmerd. And Ksmund rode forward, dodging his pursuit, and countered as well—he stiffened his head, took a blunt-tipped practice arrow from his quiver behind his back, carefully pulled his bow and arrow, and then quickly pulled the strings as he turned to aim at the man who was pursuing behind him.

This is really the attack mode that Derm is very good at, and he is very difficult to use the bow and arrow, especially for mounted archery, but he has no choice but to do it, because the bow and arrow are his only weapon now.

It took him nearly five seconds to fiddle with his bow and arrow, and he fired an arrow at the pursuer behind him. However, his arrow was badly off target, flying a foot away from the man's head before quickly falling to the ground.

The arrows were too slow, the hit rate was too low, and the strength of the arrows was obviously lacking, which was a serious deficiency in the archery skills of Kersmed.

Perhaps, Korsmod would give up and quit the tournament would put an immediate end to his current predicament, and no longer have to use the weapon that gave him a headache like the bow and arrow. However, how could he give up now?

For the sake of Jamila and for the sake of Soraton, he is determined to prevent Oslo from winning the championship of this athletic tournament, and the most direct and effective way is for him to eliminate Oslo with his own hands.

So how could he give up before that.
