Half-body entry: At the beginning, hold the sword slightly diagonally in front of the enemy, avoiding the front. Once the enemy attacks you with a spear, the sword will slash back and draw a semicircle in the air to hit the opponent's spear. The enemy

Retract the knocked-away spear, adjust your body posture, and take advantage of this opportunity to immediately rush in front of the enemy and kill him with your sword.

The attack range of the sword is far inferior to that of the spear. Without the use of some clever tactics, unless the swordsman is far more powerful than the spearman, it is basically impossible for the "sword" to beat the "spear".

Theoretically speaking, "half-body entry" is the optimal combat method when "sword versus spear".

However, even so, this method is still risky, and not everyone is capable of it.

How to shoot away the incoming spear?

How to get close quickly while the enemy's spear is being shot away?

Suppose the enemy reacts quickly and is very skillful, and before you can reach the range where your sword can hit the opponent, he closes the spear and turns back. How should you deal with it?

These seemingly simple questions are actually very informative.

Whether you can handle these seemingly simple problems beautifully is a big dividing line between "experts" and "rookies".

To be honest - Qing Teng's actions were quite thrilling.

The physical fatigue caused Qingdeng to feel the muscles in his body groaning in pain every time he swung the knife.

My limbs felt swollen and heavy as if they were filled with lead.

With his current physical condition, can he defeat Shirasaki, who is good at shooting, with the "half body penetration" method?

Qingdeng was not absolutely sure.

Fortunately - Qingdeng's risky move ended with a "perfect victory".

Shirasaki, who was hit by a sword on his shoulder, had his facial features contorted in pain.

The wrinkles on its face are already many and dense, and after the facial features are twisted like this, the whole face becomes more and more like an orange peel that has lost its moisture.

The pain coming from his shoulder told Shirosaki: he was not seriously injured, and he would be back to his original state after just a few days of rest. But for now, don't think about competing with Ayoto again.

He collapsed to the ground with both his body and his gun. While raising his hand to cover the area where the sword hit him, he struggled to raise the eyelid of one eye and looked up at Qing Deng in front of him.

Qingdeng is currently facing away from the sun.

Looking from Shirasaki's current perspective, he could just see Aoden and the sun behind Aoden, which would reach its highest point in half an hour.

The warm sunshine shines from behind Qingdeng, outlining Qingdeng's figure.

Because the sun was so bright, Qingdeng's entire face and body were cast in shadows as light as morning mist.

With the blue sky and sunshine at his back, his face dim and invisible - this scene gives Qingdeng an aura of unfathomable, awe-inspiring and inviolable.

"..." Shirasaki pursed his lips tightly, the expression on his face was unpredictable.

…

…

——You will be stronger when you are old...well...not bad.

In terms of ability effects alone, this newly acquired talent is quite useful - at least it is much more useful than "milk" and "many children, many blessings" which are not even effective.

It's a pity that Qingdeng is only 18 years old this year.

In Qingdeng's future for at least 20 years, this talent will have no use.

Qingden calmed down his breathing and emotions for a while, then slowly turned around and faced the last opponent - Akabane Koichiro.

…

…

"Now is a good time..."

After muttering this in a volume that only he could hear clearly, Akabane casually shouldered the bamboo sword that he had carried in his hand early in the morning and stepped into the competition arena with a swagger.

As the "vanguard against Aoto", when Akabane learned that Aoto actually planned to challenge the entire Third Division army with "Richikiri", he immediately realized keenly: This was a person who could severely teach Aoto a lesson and give him a lesson.

A great opportunity for Qing Deng to record his mawei!

It has been Akabane's long-cherished wish these days to embarrass Aonto - especially to embarrass Aoto in public.

The best way Akabane could think of to fulfill his long-cherished wish... was to beat Qingden, who was known as a "brave warrior," in full public view.

However, although Akabane's heart is narrow, it does not mean that his mind is also narrow. He is still self-aware.

After witnessing Aoshito's method of "slaying the 'One-Armed Party' alone" the night before... Even though he didn't want to admit it, Akabane had to agree: This little kid who sat on his head at such a young age still had some abilities.

Two brushes.

If there is a one-on-one duel with Qingden, Akabane has no chance of winning...

But what Akabane never expected was that when he wanted to doze off, a pillow came to him!

The man named Tachibana, who had some faulty brain, actually planned to single out the entire Third Division army in a "cutting" method!

Akabane was not willing to miss this great opportunity to "teach Ayoto" a lesson that came to his door.

Therefore, as soon as the competition began, Akabane began to run around, looking for anyone who could join forces, and personally formulated a series of rough strategies.

Akabane simply doesn't have too many "potential allies" - the number of people in the third division who are hostile to Aoto and unhappy with Aoto's rise to power can be counted on both hands.

Therefore, Akabane effortlessly pulled up this "anti-Aoto encirclement net".

The "two-person relay" and "the channeling of Aoi and others deliberately used tricks that greatly weakened Ayoto's physical and mental strength", these were all the tricks of Akabane.

By the way - Aoi Oo didn't want to take orders from Akabane.

Firstly, it was because he was not good at martial arts and was not sure how to consume Qingdeng's physical and mental state to the maximum extent.

Secondly, he was unwilling to use such despicable methods to deal with Qingdeng.

However, due to various reasons, Aoi finally succumbed to Akabane's power.

Akabane approached Shirosaki, who was also dissatisfied with Aoto's rise to the top, and proposed a very simple cooperation proposal:

"We two, don't rush into battle. Let Aoi and the others consume Tachibana Aoden's physical energy as much as possible first, and then we will make our final appearance." - These were the exact words Akabane said to Shirasaki just now.

The reason why Akabane came up with such a plan is very simple - he and Shirasaki have the strongest martial arts abilities in the entire third division!

In terms of martial arts alone, he and Shirasaki are firmly at the top and second place in the third division respectively.

Although Akabane has a "roshan-shaped" figure with a height and waist of 1.6 meters, he is a flexible fat man and a good swordsman.

Two years ago, when he was 26 years old, he was successfully awarded the title of Katori Shinto-ryu by virtue of his undoubted hard power.

I have to say, Akabane is really good at calculating.

And his careful calculation really had the effect he expected.

After Qingden's "two-person battle" and the exhaustion of Aoi and others, the loss of physical and mental energy accelerated a lot.

Especially during the battle with Shirasaki, in order to successfully deflect Shirasaki's spear, Aomori gritted his teeth and poured all the remaining strength in his body into his waist and arms.

Although he successfully defeated Shirosaki, the price he suffered was not small - due to the excessive exertion, his muscles were overwhelmed, and his arms began to tremble uncontrollably.

Akabane, who noticed the condition of Qingto's arm for the first time, felt happy.

A smug sneer appeared on the corner of Akabane's lips, and he thought to himself: Tachibana Aoden is exhausted! If he doesn't go into battle now, when will he wait?

He stood 7 steps away from Qingdeng and stabilized his sword in the following structure.

"..." Qingden glanced at Akabane expressionlessly, then raised his sword in the middle position.

Shirasaki and the others, who had lost to Aoto and could only be spectators now, opened their eyes wide and stared at all the movements in front of them, focusing on the two swordsmen who were facing each other from a distance.

The final result of this "1vs60" extremely grand "Liqiri" is "a complete victory for Qingden" or "a defeat for Qingden", all depends on the final showdown at hand!

…

…

Qingdeng looked solemn and thought:

——It’s really a bit too hard to challenge 60 people alone...

Qingden originally thought that with his current strength, it would be easy to defeat the entire Third Division army, which was generally inferior in terms of skill and strength.

Now it seems that I still have many shortcomings in my martial arts journey.

Qingden had already heard about Akabane's strength.

With such a tired body, facing Akabane, who possesses the Katori Shinto style and is one of the best in the third division in terms of skills... If he rushes into him without thinking about anything or caring about anything, like a bull, I'm afraid he will...

His head was bruised and bloody.

If you stand still, the blood will easily stagnate in your legs, causing your movements to become sluggish.

In order to keep his pace agile, Qingden kept moving his steps, circling around Akabane, but not getting even half a step closer to Akabane.

Time is on Qingdeng’s side.

Qingdeng has "strong essence". This talent gives Qingdeng a physique that "recovers energy and physical strength faster than ordinary people".

As long as it lasts for 1 or 2 minutes, Qingden can complete the breath adjustment and restore stable breathing.

However, Akabane is not a fool.
