Chapter 42: A Little Test

The bell rings, and it's time to get in.

The steward said, "Let's see." "Shake off the door and get out.

Li Nuo walked into the arena, this is the second time he has come here, the last time he was a fighting slave, only two days later, transformed into a gladiator.

The arena was as lively as ever, and the spectators were no less than in the last beast fight, with shouts and screams like thunder.

The host has changed, his voice is much younger, and his style tends to be stable, and there are not so many exaggerated words.

Li Nuo's opponent is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a sturdy build, more than two meters tall, and his arms are thicker than Li Nuo's thighs.

According to the host's introduction, this gladiator named Byron is a power-type warrior and an adventurer who once split the head of a beginner blood-devouring demon wolf with a sword, and has infinite strength.

Although some people watched Li Nuo's beast competition and were deeply impressed by this young man who kicked over the triangular rhino, these people attributed Li Nuo's kick to the means of the beast master, and it was the triangular rhino cooperating with Li Nuo, not that Li Nuo really had such divine power.

Those who watched Li Nuo Athletic last time had a kind of anger that hatred of iron could not become steel, you said that you are a beast master and what kind of gladiatorial fight you play with people, even if you want to play, you have to take the lead in the warcraft. You said that you challenged a martial artist with your bare hands, didn't you look for death?

Before the game started, Byron looked at Li Nuo, a flash of contempt in his eyes, and then gave a thumbs up, slowly reversed, and said, "Three moves!"

Li Nuo said: "I'll let you hold on a little longer, I just learned two tricks, and I'm not proficient yet." ”

Byron nodded and said, "Boy, I'm not angry, I'm not going to be angry with a dead man." ”

The bell rings and the crowd cheers.

Byron was not in a hurry to make a move, he raised the greatsword above his head, raised his arms and shouted, once again causing the crowd to scream and shout. Byron spun around with his sword in place again, building momentum again, and the audience began to call his name rhythmically one by one.

Byron obviously did not regard Lenovo as an opponent, and he opened like a victor, showing his might everywhere.

Li Nuo was furious, he was here to fight, but he didn't want to be teased like a clown. So, when Byron turned back to face him again, he rushed straight over and kicked out.

This kick has no skills, and it doesn't include any kind of strength in Beamon's eight strengths, it's just a very ordinary kick. But Li Nuo still had a different experience, he felt that the muscles of his whole body were mobilized, his movements were like flowing water, natural coordination, and he was handy when he came out of his feet, and his soul power moved in his blood, automatically gathering to his toes.

In Li Nuo's feeling, the kick is by no means as simple as lifting the leg and lifting the foot, but a kind of potential, a natural trend generated by the mobilization of the whole body's strength. Under the influence of this momentum, his movements are as fast as the wind and as fierce as a hungry tiger.

Li Nuo finally realized the connotation of the sentence that the silver monkey said that strength is the foundation of speed, and the force generates momentum and speeds up with potential.

Byron was already stunned, almost in the blink of an eye, this opponent he looked down on, actually jumped in front of him from a distance of ten meters, would he teleport?

Li Nuo had no doubt that this ordinary kick would be able to kick Byron, and the opponent would be rotten and lose his combat effectiveness, but this would not serve the purpose of his training. So, at the last moment, Li Nuo didn't retract his strength, but just lightly put his toes on Byron's stomach.

Rao was like this, and Byron, who didn't have time to react, staggered back, hit the ground with his buttocks, and fell.

Byron didn't notice the mercy at Li Nuo's feet, thinking that the other party was just fast and not strong. His old face turned red, jumped up, and shouted angrily: "Bastard, dare to sneak attack, Lao Tzu will kill you." ”

In a fit of rage, he slashed with all his might, and the field was driven and condensed towards the blade, making the sword faster and more fierce.

Li Nuo sideways to dodge, but did not fight back.

Byron's sword momentum unfolded, one sword followed the other, and the sword light set off stormy waves, and the move could not leave Li Nuo's vital point.

Li Nuo's figure flashed, his footsteps did not stop, like a lonely boat in the stormy waves, which could be overturned by the huge waves at any time, but he always fluctuated with the waves at critical moments, and there was no danger.

Li Nuo has entered his own state, in fact, he can easily knock out Byron at any time, but he just doesn't want to waste the opportunity to train. He doesn't know any body footwork, just sees moves to avoid moves, but under enough stimulation of the soul crystal, the soul power runs at high speed, and the movements of the body are surprisingly coordinated. His coherent movements seem to be clever and frightening, but in fact he is at ease.

Byron's smooth body and powerful swordsmanship won him the applause of the audience. In the eyes of the audience, Byron's onslaught, swordsmanship and ornamental ornamentation, all think that he is in an absolute advantage, on the other hand, Li Nuo blindly dodges and has no power to fight back, no one thinks that he still has the possibility of winning.

It's still the luxury box, and Ji'er is sitting on the side, watching the game. There were still two people beside her, one was still Finn, and the other was Nie Feichen.

Ji Er said unexpectedly: "It turns out that Li Nuo's body is so clever. She had a unique vision, and naturally saw that Li Nuo seemed to be in danger, but in fact he was as stable as Mount Tai and was not at a disadvantage.

She always thought that Li Nuo was just strong and had a hand in Warcraft, but now that she saw his body, she couldn't help but be impressed.

Finn shook his head and said, "It's not the body method, it's just that he moves too freely, and it looks like a body method." ”

Ji Erqi said: "Is there a difference?"

Finn didn't answer, his eyes looked at Nie Feichen, and the meaning of the test was revealed.

Nie Feichen was not afraid of his test, and said confidently: "The body method is based on footwork first, before moving, start first, or anticipate the enemy's opportunity first, seize the initiative while avoiding it, and strive to counter the opponent, or consume the opponent's courage with fast and labor-saving actions, and win later." And every time Li Nuo's evasion was aimed at Byron's sword momentum, just to avoid and avoid, there was no footwork at all, there was no trace of seizing the initiative, and there was no intention of saving strength. It can be seen that he is not a body, but is really avoiding. Of course, that's just one of the points. ”

After saying that, he paused, looked back at Finn, and waited for him to continue.

This is Nie Feichen, you can test me, but you also have to have this ability.

Finn smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly: "Up to now, Byron has had a total of four horizontal sword slashing movements, Li Nuo jumped up to avoid the first time, the second time he tucked his abdomen and let go, the third time he bent his knees and leaned back, and the fourth time he walked with the sword and went around behind Byron. Li Nuo is impromptu every time, there is no fixed way, and there is no rigidity of footwork, if it is a body method, it will definitely leave deliberate traces. Brother Nie, what do you think?"

After speaking, he looked at Nie Feichen again, and the last question had no beginning or end, and he didn't know what he was asking Nie Feichen for his opinion on something.

Nie Feichen seemed to understand his intentions, and said, "Actually, this game should have ended a long time ago. ”

Finn nodded approvingly, and although Nie Feichen didn't go into details, he directly said the result, which could be regarded as answering his inquiry.

Ji Erqi said: "Although Li Nuo is undefeated, if he wants to take the initiative, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort." ”

Finn explained: "I just said that Li Nuo's four ways to avoid Byron are different, these four avoidances are sad once, especially the last time he walks with the sword, he must have enough confidence and extremely fast speed, after all, Byron is just a sword-swinging action, moving his arms, the amplitude is very small, but Li Nuo needs to move his feet quickly and continuously, and his waist and abdomen must be well coordinated. Therefore, with Li Nuo's speed, the counterattack may only need one move, and don't forget, he kicked the triangular rhinoceros last time. ”

Ji'er was puzzled, "Why did he do this? Isn't this a waste of energy?"

Finn sighed, "He did this for one purpose, he used Byron as a whetstone, and he was refining himself. Moreover, he did it very successfully, his movements became faster and smoother, it is hard to imagine, just one game, he judged two people before and after. ”

Ji Er said: "According to the information I got, when he fought in the City Lord's Mansion a few days ago, it seems that he was not so powerful, and a few beginner-level martial artists could force him to be in a hurry. If it weren't for Will's defection, he wouldn't have been able to get out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion at all. ”

Finn said: "This person has amazing talent and perseverance, but it's a pity." ”

Ji'er didn't understand his words and asked, "What's the pity?"

Finn said: "It's a pity that he has no divine power, but he can't sense the aura, and he can't cultivate martial arts, so he finally falls behind." ”

Ji Erqi said: "How do you know that he can't cultivate martial arts?"

Finn looked at Nie Feichen and said, "This is for Brother Nie." Brother Nie had been in Li Nuo's room for a long time the day before yesterday, and when he came out, he had the "Zhenggang Jue" in his hand, and he must have instructed Li Nuo to cultivate, and now there is still no trace of Li Nuo's strength outside his body, I think he must not be able to sense the aura. ”

Nie Feichen didn't deny it, and said: "Yes, Li Nuo and I hit it off at first sight, and saw that he urgently needed a martial arts technique, and he couldn't hide his secrets." It's a pity that he never sensed the presence of the aura. ”

He was worried that Ji'er had a plot against Li Nuo, and deliberately concealed the truth that Li Nuo had sensed elemental ions.

Ji'er sighed: "That's really a pity. Finn, with his current skills, how many moves will it take you to defeat him?"

Finn said calmly: "One move." Not only me, but Brother Nie won't need a second move if he wins. ”

Nie Feichen sighed and didn't deny it. I thought to myself, "Don't you know that my brother has the potential to become a mage, and after he becomes a mage, see if you still have this kind of self-confidence." ”

They didn't know about the existence of Bimeng's soul crystal, let alone the special nature of Bimeng's battle method, otherwise they would definitely not be so sure.

Ji Er said: "Is the gap so big? His current strength is not inferior to that of a mid-level martial artist." ”

Finn said confidently: "Only high-level martial artists can be regarded as real martial artists, and below the high-level are just children's play." Only at the high level will the field really take shape, prompting the real martial arts, and the so-called martial arts below the high level are actually just skills. ”

Ji Er thought for a moment and said, "Having said that, this person is still very useful, and just with his means of subduing the demonic beasts, he must not be underestimated." ”

Finn nodded, and at this point, he couldn't deny Li Nuo. If Li Nuo could really even manipulate high-level demonic beasts, then his future achievements would definitely be higher than him.
