The first two knights who attacked were of the sixth rank. Although they had lost their horses, they were still a formidable force.
Their moves are simple and direct, lacking the fancy techniques of martial arts practitioners, and have a distinct military character.
The knife in his hand exuded a bloody aura, clearly honed on the battlefield.
Zu An went straight to meet them. With his current cultivation level, these people were not worth him dodging.
He did not use the Spirit Finger, since he had used it before as the Gold Medal Eleven, and now that it had been seen in public by someone with ulterior motives, it would be easy for them to make connections.
He changed his fingers to palms, striking first from behind, and slapped the sides of the two men's swords with his left and right hands. With his current strength, if these two palms had landed properly, the swords would have broken or the hands would have been broken, or at least the tiger's mouth would have bled and the hands would have been unable to hold on.
The two men only swayed slightly before immediately launching another attack.
Zu An met the attack with his palm forward. After exchanging blows, both men retreated, leaving a gap of about ten feet between them.
Zuan frowned slightly, noticing that there were bursts of blue light flowing around these people, with some obscure runes appearing and disappearing on them. He immediately realized that this must be the military formation.
He was no stranger to this; back in Bright Moon City, the Chu family's private army, through coordinated military formations, managed to withstand the attack of a Grandmaster.
In this world of cultivation, the reason why armies can still exist is ultimately because of the existence of formations. When attacking, they can combine the cultivation of everyone into one place, and when defending, they can evenly distribute the opponent's attack to each person.
At this moment, the Prince of Qi and his party were even more surprised. You should know that this cavalry squad under his command can be considered his personal guard. Every one of them is a skilled soldier. The main force is of the fifth rank, with only a few of the fourth rank and several of the sixth rank. With the help of the formation, they are enough to crush a peak sixth rank expert. Yet, they were only evenly matched with him.
Despite having overestimated him as much as possible, this guy is clearly even more formidable than the intelligence suggests.
However, the Prince of Qi was not concerned. His personal guards could easily kill ordinary seventh-rank experts, let alone deal with a mere Zu An.
As if sensing their master's displeasure, the knights' faces flushed with anger, and with a roar, they attacked Zaun from all directions once again.
Why are many martial arts masters ineffective on the battlefield? Ultimately, it's because the battlefield is filled with weapons from all sides. The martial arts techniques of dodging and weaving are not very useful. Instead, the key is to defeat the enemy simply and directly, while conserving energy for a prolonged battle.
This wasn't the first time these people had faced martial arts masters. The masters found it difficult to adapt to their fighting style, and each time they were defeated by their skillful teamwork.
Seeing the figures rushing towards him, Zuan knew that his opponents had blocked most of his dodging space. The only few angles left were traps deliberately set by them. If he tried to dodge in those directions, they would attack him wave after wave until he was worn down.
This formation's coordination is indeed impossible to dodge, but why should I dodge?
He spread his arms wide, and a wisp of cold white energy emanated from him. Then, snowflakes fell from the sky. Once the charging knights were covered in these snowflakes, a layer of frost quickly spread over their bodies. Their originally swift figures seemed to be slowed down, and their steps became slower and slower until they were frozen into lumps of ice sculptures.
Not far away, Chu Youzhao, who was worried, stared wide-eyed: "Snowflake Divine Sword?"
She was very familiar with her sister's Snowflake Divine Sword. The scene before her was indeed very similar, but it also seemed somewhat different, and she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
However, after a rough comparison, she felt that Zaun's Snowflake Divine Sword seemed to be even more powerful than her sister's.
This guy is actually a genius?
Chu Youzhao was shocked. It was already remarkable that her sister had mastered the Snowflake Divine Sword to that level with her talent. Her brother-in-law had only been learning it for a few months, even though her sister had taught him right after they got married. Yet he had surpassed his master.
The toothless coachman on the carriage in the distance frowned and said, "This doesn't seem to be the Snowflake Divine Sword, but it does have some of the sword intent of the Snowflake Divine Sword. It's strange."
The Prince of Qi was sitting on his tall horse, waiting for his men to beat Zu An so badly that his own mother wouldn't recognize him. But the next second, his men were all wiped out.
He was both shocked and furious: "As expected, you're a freeloader. Even everything you've learned was taught to you by a woman."
Anger points from Zhao Zhi: +444 +444 +444...
He couldn't tell the difference and subconsciously assumed that the other party was Chu Chuyan's "Snowflake Divine Sword".
Zuan did indeed use the Snowflake Divine Sword, but he hadn't awakened any ice-type abilities, so its power was definitely not as great as Chu Chuyan's. However, he could also summon the Snow Phoenix, which, when combined, was enough to make it indistinguishable from the real thing.
Moreover, the power of the Snow Phoenix is also related to his cultivation level. Now that his cultivation level has improved, the power of the Snow Phoenix has also increased significantly.
Hearing the other person's words, he said with a grin, "It takes skill to be a gigolo, you know, especially a beauty like Chu Yan. Why would she be interested in an ordinary man? If you're so capable, why don't you try being a gigolo yourself? You've got no chance with Chu Yan, so who else is there... Oh right, there's someone named Yu Yanluo, the former number one beauty in the capital. If you're so capable, why don't you try being a gigolo yourself and then come and laugh at me?"
The toothless coachman in the distance angrily said, "Damn it, this guy is really annoying, how dare he slander the lady's reputation."
Fu Bo's anger level increased by 666!
However, Zuan's attention was currently focused on the Prince of Qi, and he did not notice the anger points he had earned in the background.
