“Okay,” Pan Fengyu said. “Recite the story of the Miracle King.”
"...Teacher, I have something to do this afternoon, so I'll take my leave now."
Seeing Chen Jing's disheveled figure quickly slip away, Pan Fengyu couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.
"He's still just a kid. He almost gave what I got to his master... We almost got exposed." Pan Fengyu shook his head. He decided to postpone conveying the message and deliver it to his colleagues in the Guardians at a more formal and secretive moment.
...
Chen Jing, who hadn't had time to go home and had bought some steamed buns on the way, arrived at his master's place. Just as he was about to borrow books to study, he was stopped.
"Practice with each other for a while until you can perform the martial arts moves skillfully before learning the next one," the expert said.
Chen Jing readily agreed: "Okay."
The two stopped, bowed, and began fighting again.
Relying on stealth to reach attack range, but being detected by that strange "time-lapse" when launching an attack, is essentially useless...
In this case, the only way to attack is by using the "Deceptive Blade".
Chen Jing did not intend to use the "Dark Sword," which was a trump card given to him by the source of darkness, and once it was used, it would be difficult to explain.
But the Deceptive Blade is completely useless. Once it hits during a sparring match, that's winning, even if it's not a vital spot, even if it hits the protective gear... I've already won when the Deceptive Blade takes effect.
No, that's not right. I can try to transfer the effect of the Deceptive Blade through blade clashes, but the power transferred that way would be very, very small...
By the way, I can try to force my master and me to entangle in swordplay, so that the effect time can be made up for...
Entangling sword refers to the technique of intertwining and entwining sword blades, using the intertwining of blades to control the opponent while seeking to attack their openings.
As long as the blades meet, you can activate the Entangling Sword technique and look for opportunities.
Chen Jing quickly formulated a plan in his mind:
First, enter the sword-entanglement state, use the deceptive blade to make the master misjudge the distance, then pretend to close the distance, making the master think that you are going to slash, but actually win with a thrust at a medium distance.
Chen Jing approached his master and struck upwards from the right. The two swords clashed and became entangled.
There are twenty-four sub-categories of the Entangling Sword technique. First, you can choose to attack from inside or outside your field of vision. There are also four attack gaps to choose from. Depending on the distance when entangling the sword, you can choose from three attack methods: thrusting, slashing, and closer cutting. Two times four times three equals twenty-four.
Chen Jing infused spiritual power into the sword blade, forming a strange blade that began to influence the experts' judgment.
For experts whose style is characterized by "distance control" and "precision," any slight influence can be fatal!
In the instant the swords clashed, the expert seemed to sense something. He shifted his position with his footwork, the blade moving with him. Chen Jing relentlessly pursued him.
After several sword strikes, Chen Jing suddenly feigned a charge forward, but actually slashed at his master's shoulder.
The master seemed to have been prepared, and he withdrew and changed position, but he still managed to hit the palm.
The blade struck!
But Chen Jing didn't have much time to be smug. Before he could even smile, he felt his neck brace being hit.
"Not bad," the expert commented.
Chen Jing stared thoughtfully at the blade.
"Your intentions are too obvious. You need to create a trap to conceal your intentions. When you're attacking, you're always neglecting the defense on your left side," the expert advised.
Chen Jing lowered his head and said, "Yes."
He was a little frustrated, but quickly recovered and prepared to practice the Deceptive Blade and think about how to use it.
"You can borrow a martial arts manual now; your mastery of the Deceptive Blade technique is quite good," the expert's voice followed.
Ah! Chen Jing raised his head with joy.
"You have some talent; you're a promising prospect," the expert commented without changing his expression.
