n‘Good boy! What a Showoff!’
n‘Originally, I wanted to save you some face, but it looks like it’s too late now!’
n‘I am very determined to beat you up today!’
nAs Shillong thought this in his mind, his face remained calm and peaceful.
nHe smiled lightly and then threw the two-handed sword on the ground.
nCling… Dang~
nIt was not a loud sound, but it attracted everyone’s attention.
n“What is this Dragonborn doing?”
n“I’m afraid he is going to surrender… He knows he is not a worthy opponent.”
n“Didn’t he think about it earlier? It’s too late for him to surrender now!”
nA group of students whispered to one side.
n“Are you not going to try fighting me now? That’s fine!” William said with a slight shock.
n“No! You misunderstood!” Shillong laughed: “To apply the words you have just uttered now, I don’t think there will be any need for me to use a sword! Anyway, the outcome is already determined, the winner is definitely me! Come on! I will let you make ten moves first! Otherwise, as soon as I shoot, the competition will end, it would be too boring!”
n“Hmm!” William’s eyes widened instantly!
nHis face was faintly red!
nHe was angry!
nHow dare someone speak to him in such a manner!
nHe is a genius swordsman who is known as a future legend!
nHe is the strongest genius in the academy!
nA swordsman that even the teachers of the academy had to face with caution!
nAnd now he’s being underestimated by a temporary student!
nWithout weapons? Who does he think he is?
nEveryone knows that in a match between two swordsmen, a good or bad weapon can determine a victory or defeat to a great extent!
nAnd obviously, in a fight of swordsmen of the same level, the one with a weapon can easily beat the one without a weapon!
nWhen you have a weapon in your hand, you have the initiative to attack. If you don’t have a weapon, you can only avoid it passively. In addition to that, it is absolutely challenging to counterattack a flying sword.
nIs he planning to catch a blade with empty hands?
nIf his strength is not at least four or five levels ahead of his, he shouldn’t even think about it!
nWilliam was triggered by Shillong’s showing off.
nThis man is more arrogant than him!
nThe onlookers on the side of the field were naturally furious!
n“Someone, again, dares to underestimate the genius of their academy!”
n“Who does he really think he is? A legendary swordsman?”
nA group of people could no longer restrain themselves, and they were pointing at Shillong while cursing at him.
n“You 𝔡𝔞𝔪𝔫 Dragonborn! How dare you be so arrogant! William, step back! Let me teach him a lesson!”
n“It is me who should teach him that lesson! I will make him kneel and beg for mercy!”
n“I want him to confess his weakness, for what he just said!”
nThese students were boiling with anger! Shillong looked down on William and said that he is weak, doesn’t that mean they are weaker, a mere waste of the Academy?
nAfter all, William is the genius among them. Who would ever refuse to live in his shadow?
n“Shut up!” Shillong looked at these onlookers and shouted in a deep voice.
nAlthough he understood why these people had been angry, this did not mean that he would allow this group to scold him!
nHe has been living in the human world for some time now, and he has a deep understanding of their weakness!
nIt is just a group of ants, weak enough to be trampled to death accidentally by him!
nHe could only cautiously and carefully avoid fragile lifeforms like them so they can remain alive.
nShillong, being able to treat them normally, is already a gift from God to them! Yet, this group of fellow students is still not satisfied…
nIn this life, reincarnated into a dragon, he is extremely proud in his heart. The reason why he usually treats ordinary people politely is due to the influence of his previous life. It’s his greatest respect for his previous race.
nWhy are they still not satisfied?
nThe stream of golden particles in his eye sockets was rioting!
nThe air in the whole room sank.
nThe light of the room started flickering, brightening, and dimming!
nEveryone, including Arman, was gasping, and all the words disappeared from their minds!
nBoom… Boom… Boom…
nAll that was left was the sound of an unmistakable heartbeat.
nThe sound of the heartbeat was so loud, as if it was about to jump out of someone’s chest. Everyone’s face was red, and sweat on their foreheads was dripping down.
nThey covered their chests, as if they wanted to slow down their heartbeat, but it didn’t help.
nTheir eyes were full of surprise.
nHuu~~~
nIt was as if a wisp of breeze was blowing.
nThis kind of anomaly only lasted for a few seconds, and then disappeared, as if everything just now was an illusion. But that illusion was so REAL that it was terrifying!
nA group of students looked at each other, not knowing what had just happened about now, thinking it was something to do with the Dragonborn in front of them, which made them bow their heads in shock, not daring to speak again.
nThese students were in full shock!
nShillong turned his head and didn’t pay attention to them. This was a mere warning. This group of trainees, mostly between the 7th and 9th levels, couldn’t bear his dragon might at all!
nIncluding Arman, who was in the form of an elf, was taken aback. This latter was giving Shillong a fierce look at this moment, seemingly questioning why he was even implicated in the mess?
nWell, it cannot be helped! A Dragon’s aura is an AOE skill and its pressure cannot be controlled.
nIt cannot distinguish between friend and foe.
nRe-facing William again…
nThis guy is much stronger than those onlookers.
nIt’s just that his face was flushed and there was a bit of sweat on his forehead.
nBut he is very different from before!
nThat is, his attitude towards Shillong has changed!
nHis face became extremely cautious.
nThe left hand behind his back was also placed in front of him, and the sword in his hand was held tightly in both hands.
nAlthough he didn’t know what happened just now, he also thought it had something to do with the Dragonborn in front of him.
nShillong may be very strong… much stronger than he thought!
n‘I must go all out!’
n‘This duel will be like the one I have with a teacher!’
n“Please, let me know when to start!” William said with a serious face.
n“Come on,” Shillong said.
nIn just a blink of an eye, William disappeared from his original place and appeared in front of Shillong.
nSeeing the slightly rounded tip of the ironwood sword getting closer and closer, until it was just a few centimeters from his head. Shillong still did not move, but the wings behind him did!
nHe slapped William’s ironwood sword suddenly!
n“Snap! “
nA huge force slammed on the sword, and William felt like he was hit by a huge raging pig.
n‘His body tilted slightly and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he used his feet in time to stop the side fall. Before he could think about it, he instinctively changed his move, and the sword in his hand slashed towards Shillong’s waist.
nShillong’s right hand leaned forward, and when the sword was about to cut him, he instantly pinched it!
nWilliam wanted to move, but found that he couldn’t move in any way! The whole sword seemed to be fused with a piece of overweight metal, and it couldn’t be shaken at all!
nWilliam looked at Shillong in horror. He knew that the gap between him and his opponent was too great!
nTo attain this level, he should be about ten times stronger than right now!
nJust when he was about to open his mouth and confess his defeat, the Dragonborn in front of him suddenly released the ironwood sword, and said, “Come on! Continue! I’m still fine!”
nWilliam gritted his teeth and wrapped his whole body in Sword Qi, transforming into a fierce swordsman!
nThe sword in his hand danced into a streak of shadow.
nThe sound of clanking kept coming out!
nAll his sword attacks were blocked by Shillong’s long nails!
nAs a Dragonborn, his nails are about one centimeter long.
nBut this one-centimeter-long fingernail was completely enough to block all William’s sword attacks!
nThis was a huge blow to William! His face was defeated, sweat kept slipping down his forehead, seeing that the attack had been ineffective.
nHe could only inject all his Battle Qi into the sword. The next moment, in the eyes of all the students, the one-handed sword was divided into three!
nThere seem to be three swords!
nA sword stabbed at Shillong’s head, the second aimed at his throat, and the third at his body!
nApparently, it is William’s teacher’s technique. The legendary swordsman Troy Fame’s original skill, the splitting light sword!
nThe onlooking students were excited!
nSeeing the sword getting closer and closer to the opponent, William didn’t feel the slightest joy in his heart. Even with his strongest stunt, he wasn’t confident he could beat the opponent!
nThe gap between the two sides is too big!
nBut he doesn’t want to lose miserably!
nShillong, who was on the opposite side, opened his mouth at this time, revealing the sharp teeth inside. William could see it as bright as day, and then the other party gave him a light breath…
n“Boom! ! ! !”
nAn incomparably large force suddenly descended on him!
nHis entire body was wildly knocked out by this force!
nThe next moment, William’s entire body was already embedded in the wall after ten meters!
nThe sword in his hand has long been out of his grip.
nWilliam groaned in pain.
nWhat had just happened?
nShillong only took a breath and defeated him?
nThis is impossible! Although he was discouraged, he did not lose his mind.
