The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 292 - Train Sword II
The second round began, but this time was different, Xin Zhan had already taken a step right after Ren Yuan gave a cue. A movement far different from before, Xin Zhan's attack was now centered on attacking from below like a beast. The attacks that his father taught him first and focused on breaking the balance of the opponent. Xin Chen was not ignorant about this technique just that he used to be too lazy to practice.
The wooden sword in Xin Zhan's hand moved from right to left alternately, looking around for Xin Chen's weakness and attacking his wooden sword. Unfortunately for being too rash, Xin Zhan did not notice their distance was too close to open a wide gap. Xin Chen nudged Xin Zhan's back, making him hurriedly retreat to change strategy. But he could not get away with it, not waiting for Xin Zhan to regain his balance, Xin Chen charged heavily into his chest.
But the quick movement was immediately noticed by Xin Zhan, he ducked down and aimed at the opponent's left waist with both hands holding wooden swords.
The moment the wood almost hit Xin Chen's body, from the bottom direction another wooden sword fended it off. Xin Zhan nearly collapsed as Xin Chen's tank rose upwards, smashing into his eel.
Xin Zhan held onto his eel, suspecting that there was a multilevel lump there and then highlighting his sister ferociously. "You have to pay twice as much!"
Xin Chen had a goosebump. Between fear and wanting to laugh. Afraid that Xin Zhan was starting to go berserk and laugh because a lump had actually appeared on her brother's eel.
Ren Yuan was about to continue the fight, but he saw his second son's hand raised. While Xin Zhan continued to massage his forehead, he covered the eel with hair. While his mouth began to swear at his sister.
"Wait, give me some time." Xin Chen looked at Xin Zhan again, it seemed that badly he fended off until the bump on Xin Zhan's head rounded red. Instead of helping, he laughed.
"Time to laugh at me?" Xin Zhan had already taken a step to beat up Xin Chen, he was annoyed but at the same time did not want to disturb the pleasure of his sister. "Take good care of you, Chen. Don't let me hit him until the horn grows there."
Ren Yuan chuckled, only this time did he see that his eldest son was willing to laugh. Usually he would act cold while putting on a cold face.
'Xin Zhan is indeed a good brother.' Ren Yuan said as he heaved a sigh of relief. He could only see his two sons fighting each other over the height of Xin Zhan's bump. Perhaps only by fighting each other could the two young men get along. Faintly, he could see two little twins beating each other and laughing out loud, running around the yard and stepping on the flowers he planted. Unknowingly Ren Yuan smiled, those days were so beautiful.
"The third fight is about to start!" ren Yuan's shout spread the attention of his two children. They turned away from each other, seriously looking at each other not as a brother or sister, but as an enemy.
The extraordinary state of silence between them made even sounds from a distance can be heard clearly. Xin Zhan raised his sword parallel to his left shoulder, the fighting horses that a swordsman in the Shang Empire had learned. He had studied by many great warriors, only there were some who died of old age or died on the battlefield.
Xin Zhan had advanced several times and retreated quickly, a strategy Xin Chen had never learned. His knowledge of swordsmanship was only from his father. More than that, Xin Chen had never studied with any silat experts.
Apparently Xin Zhan's strategy was indeed meant to shake his pace, Xin Chen had hesitated to retreat. The sound of Xin Zhan's footsteps subconsciously made her come with the battle groove Xin Zhan wanted.
Xin Zhan's step forward once again, Xin Chen slashed out an attack right in front of Xin Zhan's face. Realizing his movements were too rash, he pulled a step back.
Xin Zhan's way of fighting had time to manipulate his way of thinking, his hesitation to attack and slash the origin as Xin Zhan advanced earlier was the goal of Xin Zhan's fighting style. Xin Zhan's sword nearly snapped at his weapon, but Xin Chen acted following his instinct to protect the object. As a result, Xin Zhan's weapon was only limited to hitting his arm. Xin Zhan protested.
"Pending with hands is not in the rules." Xin Chen did not want to lose the debate. The two young men were staring at Ren Yuan at the same time.
"Cheat or not, mother?"
Ren Yuan was a bit hesitant to see Xin Zhan's dull face, even though his strategy had already succeeded and was easily broken.
"No cheating. It's just a reflex move to protect yourself."
Xin Zhan took a deep breath, then let out a slow peck.
The fight continued again, this time the two were much more cautious. It was only the third fight, but both Xin Chen and Xin Zhan were already able to gauge the abilities of their respective opponents.
"You're also training desperately like me, aren't you? I know you're the one who won't lose."
Had Xin Chen been able to answer if he didn't even have the time to train his sword skills. Xin Zhan's ambition was far greater than his, it was indeed undeniable. Xin Zhan was always serious about his words.
"You already have the title of First Pillar, why else would you have to compete with me?"
With both hands clutching the wooden sword, Xin Chen aligned the thing in the middle of his opponent's face.
"Because without the ambition to defeat you, I'm sure I wouldn't have progressed this far."
"More sounds like you hate me half-dead."
Xin Zhan did not deny it, nor did he. But to be sure, Xin Chen to him was the person he really had to defeat. At that moment he was also thinking of buying a body-enhancing drug. Her pride as an elder sister was like being smeared with the fact Xin Chen was higher than her.
Xin Zhan did not use the trick he had used, knowing it would be useless. In a moment he began to realize that his sister was so attentive to his defense. Stand up attitude and how to hold a weapon that is difficult to follow. The teachers in the White Mist Valley had never taught their sister how to fight. However, Xin Zhan could admit that Xin Chen's development had far exceeded his expectations.
"After this you must introduce me to your teacher."
Xin Zhan inserted an initial attack, intending to repulse his opponent. Yet Xin Chen remained where he stood, crying out all the attacks coming from Xin Zhan. The sound of the second stalk of wood was a fierce moon, in one second only heard twice the rapid stalk.
