Chapter 68 The reason
Balliard did not continue to disturb the girl, who was unwilling to work hard. According to his opinion, Fiona's talent was already weaker than Yi's, and now she was left behind by Yi. She still wanted to catch up with Yi in the future. It was completely
It's wishful thinking.
However, he promised that if he dared to say these words, Fiona would chase him and chop him down. The pride of a noble could not be trampled on easily by others.
"Senior brother, do you want to practice sword practice?"
Balliard was walking, planning to talk to Dolan about something, when he happened to meet Yi coming down from the top of the mountain.
"Sword practice? Look at how sweaty you are. Go back and wash up and change clothes for class."
How could Balliard not know that Yi must have studied hard in that dangerous place? With Yi's temperament, even if he couldn't hold on anymore, he would still hold on for a while. How much strength did he have left now?
At this time, practicing swordsmanship with Yi, even if he defeated Yi, he would not be able to convince Yi sincerely. On the contrary, it would reveal his familiarity with Yi's swordsmanship. A wise man would not do this, and a wise man would not do this.
"Senior brother, we don't have much time left in the gym."
Yi was not obedient, and Balliard estimated that it would be difficult even for Dolan to make Yi obedient.
"How did you know that?"
Ballad was stunned for a moment. He hadn't told anyone that he was leaving Wuji Gym in the next few days. How could Yi know about it?
"Senior brother, you are not even worthy of a sword, so how can you focus on this gym? I heard that a minister in the imperial capital was killed by a traitor recently. Senior brother is an extraordinary person in literature, so there may be some connection."
Although Yi doesn't care about things in the outside world, some news is always talked about everywhere, and it's hard not to know about it.
"The Imperial Capital... is actually somewhat related."
Balliard did not reveal that he was not a literary extraordinary person, but Yi's words gave him a direction. Regardless of whether there was any connection before, he would go to the imperial capital to take a look, and then there would be a connection.
"In this case, why not decide the outcome at this time? It is easy to bully senior brother that he has a short time to practice swordsmanship. Senior brother should not delay any longer. If there is really something wrong with the imperial capital, it is better to set off as soon as possible."
Yi's behavior at this time did not look like a teenager at all. This kind of wisdom was enough even for the ruling party.
Although what Yi analyzed does not conform to the facts of Balliard, if you think about it carefully, if the literary extraordinary person who came to Wuji Gym was not Balliard, wouldn't it be true?
Although people with extraordinary literary skills can also use the sword, there is no need to deliberately enter into it.
Entering a gym to learn swordsmanship. Although there are no kendo demigods in the imperial capital, there are many great swordsmen who are just one step away from demigods. There must be an ulterior motive for coming to a remote place like Wuji to learn swordsmanship.
Although he could not guess what the purpose was before, when the incident in the Imperial Capital occurred, Balliard hurriedly didn't even wear his sword, and already had the intention of leaving.
The purpose of Balliard's trip is obvious - to avoid disaster. However, a minister in the court who had a lot to do with Balliard was killed. Balliard went to see it both publicly and privately. As for the
Whether to rescue the minister or just take revenge is another question.
"...that's fine."
Balliard turned around and took out the ID card, then turned around and pointed at Yi,
"bring it on."
"Watch the move!"
Yi did not talk much, and drew his sword out of its sheath. The sword's intention was awe-inspiring, and the coldness from the top of Wuji Mountain actually followed the sword and stabbed Balliard. The coldness penetrated his bones, but the sword did not hurt anyone.
"If you want to defeat me, you are looking down on your senior brother."
The dilapidation in Balliard's hands was divided into two and then into four. The four swords were true and false and knocked Yi's sword away. Not only was this kid's wisdom extraordinary, but his emotional intelligence was also far beyond ordinary people.
Yi knew that Balliard had no chance to learn swordsmanship, and that they might never see each other again in the future, so in order to repay the friendship of the past few days, he took the initiative to let Balliard cheat.
The act of causing chills to hit people before was definitely not what Yi did. Yi's swordsmanship was very pure and did not require the help of external objects, but he just did it. The purpose was to let Balliard use some literary extraordinary people.
The power lies in the sword.
It was properly released to the sea. At this moment, Balliard no longer had to worry about fairness or unfairness. Yi's intention was clearly to recognize him as his senior brother. In this case, why wouldn't Balliard do it? This book
This is one of his purposes.
"Brother, please don't be careless."
There was a smile on Yi's face, and the sword in his hand started to dance again. At this moment, Balliard seemed to feel that he could not escape, and had no choice but to summon the undead - a bone sword in his hand, blocking the blow.
hit.
"...You kid has taken your medicine!"
After Yi's attack was blocked, Balliard realized what it felt like just now - will. It was a power that only ninth-level extraordinary beings could access but was still difficult to use in actual combat.
It's easy to use.
Although it was not a complete will attack, with just that move alone, Yi had a smooth path ahead of the demigods.
It wasn't that Balliard couldn't block the sword just now. Yi's sword clearly cut through the ruins.
However, he only needs to move slightly to destroy, so there is no need to summon the bone sword to block.
"Did you feel the will yesterday?"
"It is indeed as my senior brother thought. Yesterday, while listening to a class in the library, I suddenly felt a sense that I was going to be hit and killed. I didn't go up the mountain until after class to get a closer look."
Well, practicing swordsmanship with Fiona was just a side trip. That unparalleled sharpness was obviously a swordsman. How could Yi, who aspires to become an unparalleled swordsman like this, not want to see it?
"I expected that with that blow, the mountains and rivers would be cut off, and all the beasts would be destroyed. However, I saw that the mountains and rivers remained the same, and the scenery remained the same. Just after the battle with Fiona, the pressure suddenly dropped, and I realized that the sword intention had not been revealed.
It was probably a successful strike that eliminated the sword's intention, allowing Yi to obtain the first-level sword of arrogance."
"I see."
Only then did Balliard know why Yi suddenly had such a big gap with Fiona. Yi felt the sword intention when Wuying "killed" Balliard, but Fiona didn't notice it at all.
Yi relied on that sword intent to take a step further, while Fiona was left behind. If there was a reason, maybe Yi's sword was also aloof.
But Fiona is different. Her sword intention is more about unwillingness to be restrained and freedom. Naturally, she will not attract the shadowless will.
"Senior brother can take this sword, and he is obviously a person who can understand the meaning of the sword. He is worthy of the name of Yi's senior brother. I just hope that senior brother will take care of himself."
Yi sheathed his sword and handed it over, recognizing Balliard as his senior brother. Fiona and other extremely talented people have never experienced the sword intent that he experienced, but Balliard was able to escape from it. If he really wanted to learn the sword, he might not be able to escape from it.
will be weaker than him.
But there are many obstacles in the secular world, and those who practice literature and Taoism have the most obstacles.
When Yi was eight years old, there was an extraordinary scholar who wanted to accept him as his disciple, but Yi refused. Asking him why, Yi replied: "There are treacherous people inside and demons and barbarians outside. Yi is not a person who only cares about his own life, nor is he a good person."
If you have the heart to fight with words, wait until the sword is completed in the future, and you will kill the traitors in the country at home and fight the demons and barbarians outside."
In the final analysis, I just feel that the power of words is not powerful enough, and the killing of bandits and aliens is not smooth enough.
The latter is okay, but the former goes against the principle of swordsmanship - not to interfere in political affairs. The reason why the empire obeys the swordsmanship is because the demigods of swordsmanship have never been cut off. One person breaks through, another ascends, one dies, and another replaces it.
Both the ascended ones and those who died in battle have their hands stained with the blood of aliens. They are the swords of the empire, but this sword will not cut down on the empire.
