Chapter 1449 - 1151 Simpler Than Expected_3

Henki, before entering the training camp for new soldiers, was always called an idiot, even his parents thought he was an idiot and didn’t like him. He was unable to use the energy sword for a long time after entering the training camp, so he was thrown into the last squad to fend for himself. However, later on, it seemed he had received help from the La Sang Family, started using a special Alloy Greatsword, and displayed extremely strong combat abilities. The Alloy Greatsword is suspected to be an improved energy alloy, but since no one had truly accessed it, its properties were not yet certain. However, from Henki’s fights, one could conclude that this Greatsword had excellent destructive power against both energy swords and energy alloy armor. Rumor had it that the La Sang Family was plotting a rise to power, and this idiot named Henki was likely a key part of their plan.

These were the conclusions most people had come to after their investigations.

When the conclusions were laid out for everyone, those who were previously surprised now felt relieved. After all, the La Sang Family had a deep foundation, so creating such an incident didn’t seem out of character. However, some smarter individuals could immediately sense the crux of the issue—what exactly were the properties of this improved energy alloy?

Long Yi’s fight had ended somewhat quickly, so all he could do was stand there and wait for the others to finish. But for some reason, he felt as though the soldiers around him were a bit slow.

Was it an illusion?

In fact, it wasn’t Long Yi’s illusion. After witnessing Long Yi’s fight, the surrounding soldiers immediately realized that the guy named Henki was not someone to mess with. If they finished their fights quickly, they would inevitably have to face Henki next. On one hand, they didn’t want to lose to their opponents, and on the other, they didn’t want to win too swiftly and have to confront Henki. So the fighting pairs seemed to be dragging out the time with an unspoken agreement.

Long Yi didn’t understand these soldiers well enough to see what was happening, but Group Leader Anzong saw everything clearly. What were these soldiers like during regular training? And what about now? Although they seemed to be fighting earnestly, in reality, each one of them was hesitant!

"Turns out, my soldiers are all a bunch of cowards," Anzong’s voice suddenly rang out, startling all the soldiers present.

"If a winner isn’t decided within a minute, then I think, there’s no need for you to continue the match."

Anzong’s cold voice immediately reignited the warriors’ fighting spirit, and in the twinkling of an eye, one group had finished their duel.

"Team Eleven, the winner! Facing Team Sixteen!" the referee immediately shouted.

Team Sixteen was naturally Long Yi and Elsa.

"It was you who went up just now, so this time, let me handle it. You can watch from the side," Elsa said.

"Alright, I’m actually a bit tired, could use a break," Long Yi replied.

It turned out not to be a fight against Henki? Everyone around widened their eyes in astonishment.

The reason other soldiers had been stalling here was to avoid fighting Henki, this formidable opponent whose Alloy Greatsword was particularly destructive against both energy swords and energy alloy armor. If possible, no one wanted to face him.

Yet now, the one stepping out wasn’t Henki but a soldier named Aisa.

As people investigated Henki, they also looked into Aisa. The soldier named Aisa could be described as ordinary and unremarkable. Aside from having particularly solid basics, there didn’t seem to be anything special about her.

Such a person, going for a one-on-one challenge?

Hah!

Some warriors began to regret not having seized this opportunity themselves. The two who had just grabbed the chance appeared very excited. As long as there were no oddities in the mix, how could anyone relying solely on basic skills hope to beat them? Dream on!

An energy sword appeared in Elsa’s hand, and it seemed the crowd nearly let out a sigh of relief. Nothing special after all.

"Come on, I’ll play with you first," one soldier stepped forward. The energy sword in his hand danced into a ball of light, a fancy skill that had no special offensive power, meant to show off his control over the energy sword. His apparent display won him a round of applause, as it was enough to demonstrate his talent in energy control.

Elsa simply watched quietly, without making a move. People thought she would at least pull off some fancy move in response, since most soldiers were quite fond of these tricks. But Elsa did none of that, which, surprisingly, led to some booing from the crowd.

Pleased with this outcome, the soldier waved his hands high as if he had already won, then took up an offensive stance.

"Come on, attack... ah..."

Before he could finish his "ah," Elsa had already become a streak of light dashing towards him.

"Good!" the soldier shouted, raising his hand to block Elsa’s energy sword. But at the moment the two energy swords collided, Elsa suddenly switched tactics, and the soldier also attempted to block!

Every person watching was focused on Aisa because they all realized that the previous rumors were spot-on. Her each attack pattern was as precise as a textbook. It was as if they were all calculated, extremely accurate. And for the moves that the opponent blocked or dodged, this soldier named Aisa still managed to execute them like the textbook, near-perfectly completing her sequence of attacks.

Elsa’s opponent at first scoffed at Aisa’s ability to execute textbook moves flawlessly. However, he quickly realized that it was no joke, for Aisa truly was like that. Every single one of her moves was executed with incredible precision, and a lack of flaws meant no openings. He had to fight passively, and any slight lapse in concentration would surely let the opponent’s impenetrable offense catch up to him! (To be continued.
