193 Weird Sword Style (1/2)
The other people looked to Yale with strange looks on their faces when he betted those fifty Sword Points for the girl, although some people betted for the girl, the highest bet was just ten Sword Points.
Yale sat and ignored the gazes of the others; his only interest was the battle in front of his eyes, he didn't bother with what the others were thinking about him.
After some minutes everyone finished placing the bets, and the expected battle started.
The man indicated to his opponent that she could make the first move in the fight, but that wasn't due to gentleness, it was just arrogance as he was ensured of his victory.
The girl didn't hesitate to attack; she did it without thinking two times about it, making the man smile as he intercepted her sword and made her fall back due to his superior strength. Or at least that was what the man planned to do because he was unable to intercept the sword, which was moved in a strange way and hit his body.
”You are such a weak girl, so I let you gave me one hit, but from now on I will be serious.”
That man was shameless, everyone saw that he tried to block the attack, but he was unable to do it. Although no one doubted that the man wasn't serious as he didn't use Sword Qi, which was something that could only be used after reaching the master stage in swordsmanship, it was obvious that he hadn't used it due to underestimating his opponent and not by being lenient.
After finishing his shameless speech, the man infused his sword with Sword Qi, and the girl just snorted while attacking again.
Sword Qi in the master stage was an improved version of the Sword Aura that appeared on the expert stage, but Sword Qi could be manipulated to create Sword Qi attacks, even long-range ones. However,for using them at long range, one needed to be at least at the grandmaster stage, at just the master stage, Sword Qi attacks could only be melee.
Although the man was confident in blocking the attack of the girl, the result was the same as before. Fortunately for him, his opponent's strength was far less than his own strength, so he wasn't harmed a lot by each hit while he would inflict a huge damage each time he hit his opponent.
However, after ten more exchanges, the man failed even to clash swords with the girl while all the attacks of the girl hit him. He couldn't restrain his shame even with his shameless personality because although the damage he received wasn't that much, he was being beaten by a little girl in public, which damaged his pride a lot.
Yale was focused in the battle and smiled after the first exchange as he felt that his previous guess was correct and the girl wasn't just hot-headed and wanted to battle after being offended by that man.
Yale noticed that the sword of the girl moved weirdly enough that if someone had seen her practicing that without an opponent would have called her a fool. However, those moves had proved to be extremely effective in battles and were cornering the man who surpassed the girl by a full rank and one full stage in swordsmanship.
Yale continued looking to the girl's movement of the sword disregarding the existence of the man completely; the man was strong but compared with the prowess of the girl who disregarded level powers and swordsmanship stages, he was nothing. The more he looked at that sword style, the more he felt that there was something mysterious in it.
While Yale continued looking to those sword moves, Yale entered into an enlightenment state, and his swordsmanship advanced to the seventh level of the expert stage immediately.
After some more exchanges, the man was frustrated; he had been unable to hit his opponent even one time while he had been hit every time his opponent tried to do it, that battle wasn't harming his body but was destroying his reputation completely.
”I give up; this battle has no sense. You can't harm me, and I am unable to harm you, this battle can only be a tie, but you are weaker than me, so I give the victory to you.”
