Hail the King
Page 362Chapter 331: Can You Still Use Swords after Your Arms Are Broken?
Only a few master warriors knew what [One Sword] was experiencing, and they couldn’t keep calm.
Could it be that this [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] was actually a mage who mastered Soul Magic Spells? It felt like what [One Sword] was experiencing could be only caused by Soul Magics!
Fei turned around and looked at Princess Cindy who was also sitting in the VIP area. He knew that this opponent of his was a magic genius, and he wondered if she had more insights into what was going on!
However, Fei discovered that the cold and noble Magic Princess was also looking at him! Above the veil, her crystal-like eyes were staring right at him.
When their eyes met, it seemed to have created sparks in the air.
It was subtle, but they both read some undescribed feelings from each other.
After seeing Fei looking at her, the Magic Princess lightly nodded and continued to watch the competition.
……
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
[Silver Armored Vicious Sword] finally started his attack.
With the silver sword in his hand, he leaped into the air and was as fast as lighting. He was close to the realm of “being one with the sword”, and it felt like this silver sword in his hand was everywhere.
The fast strikes left a series of afterimages in the air, and it looked like a white feathered peacock was opening up its feathers; some people in the audience also felt like the afterimages together looked like a bunch of crystal flowers; beautiful yet lethal.
These strikes from all directions were targeted at [One Sword] who still had his eyes closed.
The two silvers swords on the ground vibrated even faster, and the silver sword in [Silver Armored Vicious Sword]’s hand was also merciless. The sword turned into a phantom, and it quietly cut towards [One Sword]’s throat.
[One Sword]’s eyes were still closed. It felt like he wasn’t aware of what was going on.
Gasps sounded around the stage. Numerous people already foresaw [One Sword] getting his head cut off; numerous people foresaw the most powerful warrior in this competition die under this strike.
As the blade of the silver sword was about to pierce into [One Sword]’s body, he reacted by lightly tilting his body backward.
After missing the strike, [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] rotated his body in mid-air like a windmill and somehow pulled his body back to where he was standing before; it felt like he disobeyed the laws of Physics.
He then swung his sword in a circle and leaped into the air again. This time, he chopped down at [One Sword] who still hadn’t fully woken up yet; his movement looked like he was chopping down with an ax.
This change in strikes was unimaginably fast.
[One Sword], on the other hand, seemed to have been stuck on the ground. He didn’t move away, and big sweat drops started to appear on his forehead. It seemed like he had detected dangers as he tried to tilt his body backward even more. In the last second, he finally moved his left foot to the left a bit more.
Tink!
[Silver Armored Vicious Sword]’s sword landed in between [One Sword]’s feet.
Sword Energies instantly dashed out of the sword, and blood appeared.
One of [One Sword]’s ankles was wounded by one dash of Sword Energy, and blood spurted out of the wound.
“Ah! [One Sword] is injured!”
“Impossible! What did I just witness…… [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] actually got the advantage? He even injured [One Sword]? If I remembered everything correctly, this is the first time that [One Sword] is injured in the competition. Is it also the first time [One Sword] got injured in his life?”
“Damn! Is the result going to be shocking?”
“Impossible……”
All the people around the stage instantly started to murmur among themselves. Some people’s jaws dropped, and some people rubbed their eyes to see if they were hallucinating. No one expected [One Sword] to get injured in this match. But now, it seemed like he might even lose and die!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Sword Energies flew around on the stage. [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] was “being one with the sword”, and he started to attack even more aggressively. On No.1 Sword-Testing Stage, [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] leaped into the air again and moved his sword in a very strange manner. As if a peacock opened its feathers, the dashes of Sword Energies shot out in all directions. They made no sounds, but they were lethal.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As noise sounded, wounds started to appear on [One Sword]’s body as the Sword Energies started to leave wounds on his body and almost shredded his clothes.
Fei tightly stared at the match that was taking place on No.1 Sword-Testing Stage. He thought this was going to be one-sided, but it took a very unexpected turn. Fei could tell that [One Sword] was in a disadvantageous situation. As he was inside Joy Sorrow Separate Gather Sword Array, [One Sword] could no longer predict the path of his opponent, and he could no longer catch his opponent’s movements. He could only use the instinct of a master warrior to dodge, and injuries were unavoidable.
This was probably the toughest match [One Sword] was ever involved in.
Fei believed that [One Sword] also noticed the hidden power in [Silver Armored Vicious Sword]’s body and was very interested in it. [One Sword] didn’t use his killer strike at the beginning and used his rain-like Sword Spirits to force out [Silver Armored Vicious Sword]’s real power.
However, that little curiosity placed him in a corner.
“Where is [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] from?”
The Joy Sorrow Separate Gather Sword Array was really strange, and the speed and sword technique [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] was demonstrating was also very surprising. It was different from mainstream techniques as it was fast, created illusions, and made no sounds. That was why [One Sword] had a hard time dealing with it.
Except for Fei, masters like Magic Princess Cindy, Shevchenko, and [Wind and Fire Dual Warriors] were all shocked as well. Many of them previously felt like this [Silver Armored Vicious Sword]’s strength was mediocre; they believed that he had a good look but was too arrogant to be a real master.
But now, it seemed like they were all fooled by [Silver Armored Vicious Sword]’s act!
……
On No.1 Sword-Testing Stage.
[One Sword] finally showed impatience and anxiety on his face.
This was the first time that he was in such a bad situation. He was angry, and all the sweats on his body were mixed with the blood. All of the emotions re-appeared in his mind again, and his eyes and ears were feeling even more pain. Finally, he was able to gain back some control of his warrior energy. His warrior energy dashed out of his body and soared into the sky. The huge airflows created by this was like a tornado that was swirling around [One Sword].
“Puff……”
[Silver Armored Vicious Sword] was charging forward at [One Sword] with his silver sword, but he was hit by this powerful force. As if he was hit by a huge hammer, he opened his mouth and puked out mouthfuls of blood. After he staggered and took more than a dozen steps back, he finally stabilized his body.
Boom!
Gasps sounded around the stage again.
“Too bad that your strength doesn’t match up with your techniques!”
“Surrender, and I will let you live.” [One Sword] opened his eyes and said to [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] who repeatedly puked up blood.
“Yuck! You want me to surrender? Beat me first! Do you think you are the king of Chambord?” [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] spat out.
[One Sword]’s expression changed. He sneered: “The king of Chambord? So what? You are not my match!”
“Yuck! Defeat me first!”
[Silver Armored Vicious Sword] mocked. As he said that, he moved the silver sword in his hand. Silver flames re-appeared, and the [Joy Sorrow Sword] and [Separate Gather Sword] that were stabbed in the ground started to vibrate again. The silver rings and engravings on them made a series of chime sounds, and the sounds all rushed into [One Sword]’s ears.
[One Sword] had to close his eyes after he heard that.
“Hahaha, as soon as I strike, you would need to close your eyes. And you want me to surrender?” [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] knew that his opponent was really powerful and the same techniques would be useless in front of him, and that was why he suddenly changed to another set of technique that was even more strange.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Blood appeared on [One Sword] as he was injured again.
“I didn’t want to kill you.” [One Sword] sighed. Knowing that his opponent was weaker than him, [One Sword] didn’t even use his sword. He directly broke through the technique using his pure warrior energy.
After a noise, [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] was knocked away again. His arms were down and looked boneless; it seemed like [One Sword] broke his arms.
“Can you still use swords after your arms are broken?”
[One Sword] was very proud of himself. After his offer was rejected, he won’t ask again. [One Sword] who showed his hostility towards Fei in the battle with Torres didn’t show any mercy towards [Silver Armored Vicious Sword] after this young man brought up the king of Chambord.
[One Sword], wanted to kill!
