Chapter 122: The Battle of Schools



At this time, the kendo apprentice who came out for some fresh air also saw Lu Ran and the others.

When he found Lu Ran, he rubbed his eyes carefully and said in surprise: "Senior Brother Lu Ran???"

“Meow? (The culprit?)” The sword-holding cat also looked up at Lu Ran.

"Who are you?" Lu Ran asked subconsciously.

"My name is Ning Fan, and I'm an apprentice at Tianhong Dojo. We've met before." Junior Brother Ning spoke excitedly, as if he had met his idol.

“Oh.” Lu Ran couldn’t remember clearly, but when he lived in Tianhong Dojo, there were indeed apprentices in the dojo who often greeted him.

After all, Lu Ran was the only beastmaster in Tianhong Dojo at that time.

As the era of beast taming begins, a group of young sword-fighting men are particularly interested in the profession of beast tamer.

He almost gave up on swordsmanship and turned to Lu Ran to learn beast taming.

Fortunately, Lu Ran came and went without a trace, otherwise he would have been entangled by this group of junior brothers and sisters.

"Brother! I finally meet you! I didn't expect that you are the one on the Divine Pet List!"

"Hmm?" Did Master Jiang Dou tell the other party his identity?

The information that he was an ordinary person should only be known by Master Jiang Dou and Senior Brother He Dali in the dojo.

“What’s wrong with you, cat…” Lu Ran didn’t rush to answer, but asked back.

"It's like this. During this period, three apprentices including me in the dojo became beast masters. In Infinite City, we learned about your deeds, brother. The husky, the sword in the mouth, the battle... Later we asked the master and got confirmation."

I see.

Although Lu Ran's appearance has not been circulated in Infinite City, everyone knows Mr. Ha's race: he is a Husky.

When Lu Ran lived in Tianhong Dojo, Mr. Ha would often wander around the dojo with a sword in his mouth.

As Passerby A's fame grew, it was not impossible for these dojo apprentices to guess that Lu Ran was Passerby A.

After all, Tianhong Dojo is a well-known kendo training site in the country. If a dog knows swordsmanship, it is more likely to come from such a large dojo than from the common people.

"Then the three of us thought your sword-bearing dog was very cool, so we started to imitate it..."

Lu Ran: “…”

How come there are still three more!

Manager Ying and Fang Lan looked at Lu Ran.

Sure enough, the problem lies with Lu Ran.

This dojo is also... why are there so many abnormal teenagers?

Indeed, "normal" teenagers are still studying hard, playing games, and dating, so why would they come to Tianhong Dojo to practice swordsmanship?

"But later, our master found out and stopped us. He told us three brothers from the Condor Heroes about their experiences." Ning Fan sighed, "But the sword-carrying cat is indeed very cool. I didn't expect it to fight with a sword in its mouth. I just wanted to train it casually as a unique skill to show off its coolness every day."

"Your choice is right." Lu Ran said: "This is indeed not suitable for fighting. My situation is rather special and has no reference value."

"Come on, take me to see the master, and I will tell you everything then." Lu Ran said.

"good!"

Soon, the young man named Ning Fan brought Lu Ran and Fang Lan into the dojo. As for Manager Ying, after sending Lu Ran to his destination, she yawned and turned away, with no intention of following them into the dojo.

Inside the dojo.

"Master is currently training Senior Brother Jin and Senior Sister Fan. I just finished the training, so I came out to get some fresh air..." Ning Fan explained.

Training ground.

Lu Ran saw a man and a woman about his age, fighting two against one against Master Jiang Dou in swordsmanship.

From the perspective of physical fitness, the two young men who became beastmasters undoubtedly had the advantage, but judging from the outcome of the battle, they were severely suppressed by the elderly Master Jiang Dou.

"Can you two do this?"

"I've told you so many times that you should be decisive and quick when you draw your sword. You should think of the light from the sword in your hand as a rainbow in the sky. Why are you still so slow?"

"Don't wait until you see the opponent's move before thinking about how to respond. Play at your own pace and look for the initiative."

Click.

The wooden swords in the hands of the two men were quickly knocked away by Jiang Dou.

"Your master is so strict." Fang Lan couldn't help but say when he saw this on the training ground stands.

At this time, old man Jiang Dou, with messy hair, was lecturing two apprentices in kendo uniforms, pointing out their shortcomings.

"Other aspects are fine, but he is really serious about swordsmanship."

"Master, look who's here." At this time, Junior Brother Ning spoke. Old Man Jiang Dou looked towards the platform and was slightly surprised to see Lu Ran.

"Lu Ran?" He asked in surprise, then looked at the two apprentices beside him and said, "Well, the Senior Brother Lu Ran you've been thinking about is here."

"Let him explain to you later the combination of the beast control system and the sword."

"You should learn from your Senior Brother Lu Ran. Although we are about the same age, he has already started pursuing the sword spirit..."

"Master, we have learned the sword intent." Lu Ran and the others walked down, and after hearing Jiang Dou's words, Lu Ran updated the information.

"Wait, what does 'we' mean?" The old man suddenly had a bad feeling.

No way, no way, even that Husky has already...

“Senior Brother Lu Ran!” At this time, Senior Brother Jin and Senior Sister Fan, whom Junior Brother Ning mentioned, were also looking at Lu Ran with admiration.

Is Senior Brother Lu Ran really the real Passerby A? ?

First on the Divine Pet List, the pet is on the list for fighting with a sword in its mouth, so cool.

"Who is this?" Although he was concerned about the sword, Mr. Jiang Dou still asked Fang Lan what was going on. Lu Ran had a girlfriend? Why did he carry a little girlfriend with him? "My sister Fang Lan is also a beastmaster. We came to Jinling to participate in the preliminary selection of the beastmaster competition and plan to stay in the dojo for two days."

"Master Jiang Dou, sorry to bother you." Fang Lan greeted politely.

"Oh, no problem, welcome, just treat this place as your own home." Jiang Dou immediately understood Fang Lan's identity. It turned out that she was the daughter of a good friend of Lu Ran's parents. Jiang Dou had failed in the competition with Fang's father and mother for Lu Ran's custody, and he had a deep impression of Fang Lan's parents.

“Come to think of it, kid, what did you just say? Have you already comprehended the sword intent?” Old man Jiang Dou still couldn’t believe it.

The three fans nearby also looked surprised.

You know, the three of them have been studying in the dojo for so long, but they don’t even know the sword moves. Could it be that this legendary Senior Brother Lu Ran has already comprehended the sword meaning that Senior Brother Shen Diao Xia has not comprehended? "Yes." Lu Ran nodded.

“Hahahahahaha.” Hearing Lu Ran’s words, old man Jiang Dou laughed and said, “Okay, okay.”

"That's good. I feel relieved after hearing this!!!"

"Lu, if you meet a girl named 'Xia Ri' in the competition at the Beastmaster University, beat her up for me."

"Ah?" Lu Ran was stunned. He didn't understand why he, who had comprehended the sword intent, was related to Xia Ri. Who was this?

"He's the apprentice of an old rival of mine. We both practiced cold weapons. I practiced swords, and they practiced 'guns'. They were long-handled guns, not the kind you learn in Hawaii."

"My old rival's apprentice has also become a beastmaster, and is said to have comprehended the 'Spear Intention'. The old guy called me and boasted about it for a long time, and I couldn't bear it."

"Now that you said you have also comprehended the sword intent, I feel relieved. If you meet the opponent's apprentice at that time, just defeat him severely."

"What?" Lu Ran was surprised and asked, "Did the 'Xia Ri' you mentioned really comprehend the meaning of the gun? The one that shaped the artistic conception?"

"That's what the other master said. By the way, she should have a talent for fusion! She is following the same path as your senior brother Divine Condor Hero, a school of her own fighting."

"So that's how it is." Lu Ran couldn't help but say.

Oh my god, a freshman competition has so many experts appearing all of a sudden, and there is one more strong enemy.

Lu Ran knew very well how difficult it was to comprehend the sword intent. If it weren't for President Ha's perfect integration of weapon control characteristics, they would have no hope of comprehending the sword intent, at least for now.

But it is not impossible for the girl named Xia Ri to comprehend the meaning of the spear. Lu Ran's sword practice is like fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. If the other party has been practicing spear skills with a spear master since childhood, then her experience in spear skills must be stronger than Lu Ran's experience in sword skills.

There are very few cold weapon inheritors like Lu Ran who have only learned for a period of time out of interest. Most of the apprentices in Tianhong Dojo basically plan to take the exam in the future, and then make a living by participating in various kendo competitions to win prizes. For example, Senior Brother Divine Condor Hero once won good places in international swordsmanship competitions.

In addition, Xia Ri has the talent of fusion, and can share power with the pet during the fusion stage. If the pet masters energy shaping and cooperates with the beastmaster's own talent for gun, it is not impossible for it to comprehend the meaning of gun.

But even so, it is still quite amazing. After all, the fourth generation beastmaster has only grown for more than three months. Those who can comprehend the shaping of artistic conception at this stage must have top-notch learning ability and comprehension.

“Don’t worry, if I meet her, I will defeat her.” Lu Ran assured his master.

Although the opponent is powerful, Lu Ran is not afraid.

"If I meet him, I will defeat him, Master Jiang Dou, don't worry!" Fang Lan also interrupted and said with a smile.

"Forget it. Can you beat him?" Lu Ran looked at her doubtfully.

"Don't underestimate me." Fang Lan was dissatisfied. Although her artistic conception shaping was indeed powerful, her experience in poison was not bad either, especially after she learned the fusion, many tactics that she could not use before could now be used.

She didn't dare to use it before because she herself was not resistant to poison and could easily hurt herself by accident, but now... the fusion skill can make up for this shortcoming.

At that time, she will compress the energy into a poison gas bomb and let it explode in the entire arena, forming a poison gas hurricane, or compress the energy into a venom bomb and release it into the sky, creating a poison rain that covers the entire arena... her opponent will just wait and cry!

The opponent is using a gun, not a "submachine gun", so there's no problem!

"Hahaha, okay." It seemed that old man Jiang Dou was angry at his old rival and was in a particularly good mood at this moment.

"So, Senior Brother Lu Ran, you should be representing the 'Kendo Style' in the competition this time, right?!" Junior Sister Fan asked curiously.

"Right now, everyone on the Beast Taming Forum is discussing which Beast Taming school has the best results..."

"That's not accurate. The sword style refers to the beastmaster using the power of his pet to fight with sword-like weapons."

"But Brother Lu Ran's side... seems like the pet is fighting with a sword in its mouth. This style has never appeared before."

"That's the new school, the pet beast holding sword school!" Junior Brother Ning said excitedly.

Nowadays, there are many schools of beast taming, some simply taming pets to fight, some using the power of pets to fight on their own, and each school can be divided into different sub-schools.

For example, those who fight with the help of the power of pets can be divided into physical skills, cold weapon skills, and even the rare spiritual power skills.

These schools were all born out of the different beast taming skills of the beastmasters. Which school is stronger has always been a controversial topic in the beast taming field.

Now, supporters of various major schools are waiting to verify their own views through the competition held by the Beast Taming University. After all, this is the first large-scale beast taming competition in Xia Country. Next, there will be many battles to provide arguments.

The three junior brothers and sisters were chattering. They were still weak and could not achieve anything in this competition, but Senior Brother Lu Ran was definitely a popular player.

But the problem is... Lu Ran's pet beast holding the sword style doesn't seem to belong to any school... So will there be a new school that beats the old school and leads to the birth of a new trend? They are curious, after all, they are also beast masters influenced by the new trend.
