Ed thought, "Maybe swinging a sword isn't that hard. Just do it like chopping wood."
So, Ed launched the final attack, holding the sword with both hands and rushing forward with a roar.
Ke Nan said coldly: "It's useless to have a loud voice, you still have to look at your real ability!"
At this moment, the magic power in Ed's body surged, and the wooden sword emitted a faint golden glow. There is no doubt that Ed's third sword was still easily parried by Conan, but then, something unexpected happened - the sword in Conan's hand suddenly broke, and before he could react, he saw that Ed's sword had stopped in front of him.
Ed gasped, loosened his hold on the wooden sword, and fell backwards to the ground, his heart filled with shock. Konan was completely stunned. He stared blankly at the smoothly cut wooden sword in his hand, then looked at Ed's wooden sword lying on the ground, his heart filled with confusion and anger.
He reached out to touch Ed's wooden sword, and instantly, the wooden sword on the ground shattered with a bang and turned into wooden fragments. Seeing this, the guards around wanted to rush forward to protect their master, but were scolded by Ke Nan to stop.
Conan grabbed Ed's collar and yelled, "How did you do it? You actually attached magic power to the weapon! This is the method of the magic swordsman! How can a lowly person like you learn such advanced sword skills!"
What magic swordsman? He doesn't know! Ed was still confused at this time, not understanding what was going on, and shook his head in panic: "I don't know! This is just a skill I learned when I went up the mountain to cut wood, in order to make cutting wood easier!"
After hearing this, Ke Nan felt mixed feelings of anger and shock, and couldn't accept it in his heart. I have learned sword skills for five years but still haven't mastered this move, while Ed, a servant, has become a magic swordsman just by chopping trees.
Ke Nan shouted angrily: "Do you want to listen to what you are saying and see if it is human language?"
Unlike his brother, Conan's brother, Fezzi Famene, is an absolute swordsmanship genius. Every time he practices with his brother, he can only lose his teeth on the ground.
In his father's eyes, Fizzi was the pride, while he was left out. Kenan's heart was filled with sadness of being ignored and a child's unwillingness to admit defeat. Anger was burning in his heart. Why could he never catch up with his brother?
He looked at Ed and felt a familiar shadow in his heart, which was a strong sense of anger and unwillingness.
"I can't accept this fact!" Kenan roared, his heart filled with jealousy and anger. His self-esteem was severely hurt. The Ed in front of him made him feel inferior to a lowly servant.
So, Konan pulled out the iron sword beside him and pointed it at Ed. Ed thought the young master wanted to kill him and was terrified. However, Konan said, "I must defeat you and wash away today's shame! I want to challenge you! A life-and-death battle to determine who is better and who is worse! I know you haven't practiced sword skills, but I will give you a month. After a month, we will still be here! We will fight with iron swords!"
Ed Natural Way didn't know what this challenge meant, but he had no ability to refuse. If he lost next time, he would definitely lose his head.
"Master Ke Nan, please have mercy on me. I don't want to accept such a challenge..."
"Since you can master enchantment techniques by chopping down trees, you will definitely be able to learn swordsmanship within a month. You have no right to refuse. After a month, we will fight to the death! I will definitely surpass you!"
Kenan said coldly. He did not ask for Ed's name. Someone would tell him later. He would give orders not to disturb Ed within this month. He wanted to win, and he wanted to win fairly.
The next day, after some investigation, Ed finally understood why the young master had such an extreme personality. Baron Famion himself was a powerful magic swordsman. He won the title of the Dawn Empire by fighting on the battlefield. The baron's family had two sons and one daughter.
The eldest daughter is not interested in magic, but is keen on matters related to the imperial government. She plans to take the examination to become a civil servant of the Dawn Empire. The eldest son, Fezzi Famen, is known as a genius swordsman. He inherited his father's magical and swordsmanship talents since he was a child. Although he is only fifteen years old this year, he is already a second-level apprentice magic swordsman.
As for the young master Conan Famion, he did not inherit the baron's talent. After practicing for many years, he is still a first-level magic apprentice and has no signs of touching the threshold of a magic swordsman.
Since childhood, Kenan has been compared with his brother Feiqi, the untalented person and the genius brother. Then, what Ed did yesterday was no different from killing someone. Knowing everything, Ed felt very aggrieved and regretted why he was curious to take a look and why he shook his head. But things have happened and he has to face it. If he loses, he will definitely die, but if he wins, he may still have a chance of survival!
Ed was confident in his physical strength. After all, it was the result of years of training in the mountains. He knew that as long as he could learn swordsmanship, he might be able to survive! This firm belief drove him, as if lighting a bright lamp in the darkness.
At the same time, Conan also started training seriously, which was unusual for him, even surprising Baron Famion. Looking at his youngest son who was practicing hard on the training ground, the Baron's eyes flashed with satisfaction: "Son, you have really grown up and started to train seriously."
Moreover, Kenan actually took the initiative to humble himself and go to his brother to ask for advice on sword skills. Feiqi has always loved his younger brother very much, so naturally he would not hide anything from him and taught his younger brother swordsmanship seriously.
However, Konan's sudden change also made Feiqi confused and interested. He frowned slightly and said to his brother, "I will be going to the Arcane Academy soon. I only have half a month to teach you."
Ke Nan replied firmly: "Half a month is enough!"
Meanwhile, on the other side of the library, Ed was frantically absorbing knowledge about swordplay, sword techniques, and the magic swordsman. With his excellent memory, he engraved the contents of the books deeply in his mind. As his knowledge accumulated, his eyes became more determined and sharp. He knew that reading books alone was useless and that practical training was necessary.
But the question was: where was he going to find a sword? An idea flashed through Ed's mind, and he decided to try it in the open space behind the library. Normally no one comes here, so it's the best place to practice.
Ed picked up a branch and imitated the sword techniques described in the book in his mind. At first, his movements seemed a little clumsy, but as his memory deepened over and over again, they gradually became smooth and silky. Every time he swung his sword, it was as if he was waging an invisible battle with the sword skills in his mind, his heart filled with hope and desire.
While immersed in training, a strong fighting spirit surged in Ed's heart. His figure swayed in the moonlight, the branches were the sword in his hand, and his every movement seemed to foreshadow the upcoming changes and challenges.
