readx; James squinted at Eva, who was standing on the opposite side and was defending with all his might, he praised in his heart, then slightly clenched the wooden sword in his hand and strode over. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Eva had been staring at him intently, but now she saw James attacking and hurriedly parried over. The first time the two sides were tentative attacks, just to get some basic information about the other party, so they just made a show.

After a few rounds of coming and going, Eva learned a little bit about James' habits and strengths. Her hands trembled slightly, and she felt only a bit of soreness.

James felt a little surprised, and he couldn't help but reassess Eva's strength, and combined with her reflexes and flexibility, James became more serious.

The two sides tried to end the attack, one of the two squinted his eyes to give people the feeling of casually dealing with errands, and the other had a solemn face as if he was facing a great enemy, which was really a strong contrast. Edward smiled at the floor he looked at below, and said to Henry, "Look, James is serious. I think Eva should be careful. ”

Henry was watching intently, and when he heard Edward say this, he didn't refute it, but snorted through his nose. On the contrary, Peter listened to Uncle Edward's words and looked nervous, fearing that Eva had accidentally taken the injury.

Eva struggled to resist Edward's attack, she only felt that there were swords and swords in front of her, Edward's sword was not only fast but also powerful, and her hands trembled very much.

Eva let out a breath and kept backing to dodge the opponent's attack with her nimble steps to give herself time to recover, but James saw through Eva's mind at once. A mocking smile appeared on his lips, and James took a deep breath and slashed the wooden sword he held at Eva.

Eva hurriedly ducked sideways but lost her rhythm, and James seized the opportunity to swoop in.

Eva couldn't parry the wooden sword in her hand and was picked out without holding it tightly, and James suddenly stopped the attack and stood aside. Peter looked nervous when he saw Eva being beaten without a fight, and when Eva was picked up with a wooden sword, he couldn't help but cry out.

Henry sighed to himself and looked helplessly at Edward, who smiled and didn't say anything.

Eva looked at her trembling hands, her head down, her mouth pursed, and she didn't know what to think. The hands were shaking so much that James noticed them when he was standing not far away.

Peter ran over from outside the field, and he looked nervously at Eva to see that nothing was wrong before he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, Eva." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw her trembling hands, and Peter held them down, and suddenly saw a drop of bright red blood dripping down his fingers and falling to the ground.

Eva hurriedly tried to retract her hands, but she shouted at Peter, "It's okay, don't worry Peter." ”

Peter didn't have time to talk to her, and he spread Eva's trembling hands and saw that a hole had opened in her jaw, and blood was gushing out of it. Peter looked up at Eva with concern, sighed, and then glared at James, the culprit next to him. James rubbed his nose embarrassedly and smiled bitterly.

Before Peter could say anything, Edward and Henry walked down. The two of them looked at Eva's injuries and comforted Peter with a reassuring voice, saying that it was okay or something. Then he began to seriously summarize and analyze the gains and losses of the exercise just now, the lessons learned, and so on.

Peter stood aside and couldn't interject, so he could only look angrily at James who was doing nothing, James was a little furious by him, and couldn't help but quietly turn his head and take two steps back.

Fortunately, at this time, Henry relieved him, and Henry said loudly to Eva: "Good job Eva, but it's still my negligence, I thought your foundation and strength were already okay, but I didn't expect that the strength was still not enough, and the foundation was not too solid." As he spoke, Henry shook his head and sighed with a look of remorse on his face.

Eva opened her mouth, and before she could speak, she heard Edward on the side say: "It's okay, the foundation and strength can be exercised, and the most feared thing is that there is no talent, or there is a strong talent but no corresponding psychological quality." Eva is not lacking in any of these, the only thing you lack is a lot of experience. The rest can be made up for by practicing slowly. This time it was a good performance and it can even be said that it was beyond my expectations, I didn't expect you to resist James's attack for so long. Truth be told, James is the best knight in our entire Knights. He basically has no defeats, so you have to ask him for advice. ”

Eva nodded vigorously at James when she heard this. James smiled and said that nothing was always welcome for her advice.

Peter pouted vigorously and muttered to himself that he was not just a big knight or something. Before he could finish muttering in his heart, he heard Uncle Edward talk about himself, and he quickly pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

I heard Uncle Edward say: "As for Peter, first of all, you still have to make sure that you develop yourself, and when your height and weight are fully developed, you will naturally get better, and secondly, you have to work hard to exercise your basic skills, many of your current basic skills are not solid, or even can be said to be completely none, and finally, you have to maintain the mentality of a strong man." ”

When Peter heard the previous one, he thought it was more correct, but when he heard the mentality of a strong man, he was confused. He asked ignorantly: "What is the mentality of a strong man." ”

As soon as Henry was happy, he was about to show off or give Peter a lesson, when he heard James on the side suddenly say: "The mentality of a strong man is naturally that you are strong, confident, and brave, so can you be cowardly." He pursed his lips and looked at Peter disdainfully. Peter's face turned red all of a sudden, and if he hadn't been able to beat the other party, he would have pounced on him and punched and kicked him.

Henry hurriedly played a round and finally calmed Peter down. Eva also kept comforting Peter, and she kept glaring at James and complaining in her heart about the other party's rudeness.

However, James didn't see it at all, pointed at Peter's current expression, and said to him with a sneer: "Look at your current appearance, weak and powerless, do you want to come up and hit me?" It's a pity that you can't do anything about it, you know. How can you be called a strong person like this? A strong person is someone who knows that something impossible has to work hard to do it. If you live like a coward yourself, don't blame others for being ridiculed. After saying that, he left the venue without looking back.

Peter gritted his teeth tightly, and the anger in his eyes could be discerned without looking closely. He kept echoing in his heart what James had just said: "If you live like a coward, don't blame others for being ridiculed." ”

Eva didn't have time to rush at James as he left the field, and yelled, she held Peter tightly in her arms and kept comforting him.

Henry and Edward on the side looked at each other and laughed silently, Henry opened his mouth and silently compared his mouth to Edward and said, "You are too damaged, you can figure this out." Edward looked up at the roof and said nothing.

James, who had been leaving, quietly glanced back and saw Henry waving his hand at him again and again, he let out a long breath, straightened his waist and walked out with a slow pace.
