Chapter 29 Saber Art Level 26

Everyone trained until 3 pm. Just like Chiliarch Ling, Chiliarch Yu led everyone to the stream, to wash up once a day.

When they arrived at the stream, as usual, Zhao Gao left his pants on and took out the large saber that Adjutant Qian had given him. He began to practice by the stream.

Sweep, Cleave, Plow, Slice, Nail, Slash, Strike.

Every move was done with vigor and vitality.

Suddenly, as Zhao Gao was practicing his cleaving technique, an evil wind blew towards him from behind. His sixth sense told him danger was at hand.

Without thinking, he switched from cleaving to slashing horizontally at the ‘evil wind’ behind him.

“Clang!” The sound of steel colliding rang out and sparks of collision lit up.

Zhao Gao followed the movement of the saber and turned around. Zhao Gao saw who had attacked him.

“Reflex is not bad, but training by yourself isn’t going to get you as far as sparring would,” Adjutant Qian praised Zhao Gao.

Then, he brandished his saber and attacked Zhao Gao immediately.

“So it’s Adjutant Qian. I was wondering who would attack me!” “Since Adjutant Qian is willing to give me advice, Zhao Gao can’t ask for more!” Zhao Gao replied as he blocked the attack. “Cut the crap and focus on looking at my saber!” Adjutant Qian warned before swinging his saber at Zhao Gao more fiercely. “Clang! Clang! Clang!” The sound of metal colliding and the sparks from the collisions of the blades flashed continuously by the stream.

Adjutant Qian controlled his strength and tried to maintain the same strength level as Zhao Gao. He competed with Zhao Gao purely on Saber Skills.

As he fought, Adjutant Qian kept praising Zhao Gao in his heart.

“Zhao Gao’s Saber Technique was probably at the same level as his.”

“No, perhaps his skill is even slightly higher than mine.”

“Each time I spar with him, it will help to upgrade my saber technique too.”

“With my strong physical strength, I can ensure our safety. The rest can be used to improve the Saber technique.” “Nothing is safer than this. Not only can I resolve my thirst for fighting, I can also improve my saber techniques quickly so that I can have a breakthrough in my next level of the Saber Technique. I could then comprehend the Saber Flare Technique sooner.”

While fighting Zhao Gao, Adjutant Qian thought about these things in his heart.

All of a sudden, Zhao Gao realized that Adjutant Qian had lost his focus. Zhao Gao’s combat instincts were urging him to make use of this opportunity.

Zhao Gao delivered a cutting blow towards Adjutant Qian and crashed into him. The large blade in his hand did not stop moving. Once he was blocked, Zhao Gao’s right hand released the saber’s handle quickly.

As the saber fell, his left hand grabbed the handle immediately and slashed towards Adjutant Qian’s abdomen.

Adjutant Qian was startled. He did not expect Zhao Gao to grasp the open opportunities of combat so well. As he watched the approaching saber, Adjutant Qian could no longer hide his strength.

Before Zhao Gao could react, he had already retreated more than 3 meters from Zhao Gao.

“Adjutant Qian, you were distracted just now,” Zhao Gao reminded him.

In such circumstances, regardless of whether Adjutant Qian could react in time, Zhao Gao would have stopped attacking at the last moment.

“Ah! I’m sorry, I underestimated you. I would not dare to be distracted in battle. It’s been many years since we fought in a battle, so I’m getting a little lazy,” Adjutant Qian sighed.

Adjutant Qian’s eyes then narrowed and he said solemnly, “Come, I won’t be distracted this time.”

“That could not be better,” Zhao Gao had already sped towards Adjutant Qian before finishing his sentence.

The saber that was raised high was shining with a cold light.

“Clang!” The two began wrestling each other. However, in less than three seconds, Zhao Gao felt that his strength was no match for Adjutant Qian.

He immediately pulled back his saber, and changed his move to slash at Adjutant Qian. “Clang! Clang!”

The two of them were brandishing their sabers, fighting intensely by the stream.

The sparring lasted for an hour and a half.

After another collision of weapons, they separated as Adjutant Qian shouted, “Let’s call it a day!”

Zhao Gao gasped heavily and nodded.

After taking a glance at Zhao Gao, Adjutant Qian sheathed his saber and left.

As he walked away, Adjutant Qian said, “Your control over your body is still not very good. You haven’t displayed most of your strength.” When he heard this, Zhao Gao could not help feeling helpless. He had been upgrading and adding one freedom stats point daily. Even though he had been practicing the Black Stone Fist and Saber techniques diligently, he had not improved much.

Although Zhao Gao felt discouraged, he still pretended to be in the know and replied, “Thank you for your guidance, Adjutant Qian. I will train harder and try to control my strength as soon as possible.”

“Good luck!” Adjutant Qian waved his hand and walked towards the camp without looking back.

After Adjutant Qian left, Zhao Gao took a deep breath to calm himself down. Then, he went down into the stream to wash up.

After washing up, Zhao Gao carried his large saber on his back, and walked towards the camp.

Hmm.. If you want to ask, why not hang it on your waist?

Zhao Gao could only reply, “A saber that weighs fifty kilograms hanging by the waist? Do you want to drop your pants?”

When they returned to camp, Chiliarch Yu led the group back to Field No. 10.

Thereafter, they were dismissed on the spot. From tomorrow onwards, they were to gather here everyday.

It was time for dinner.

After eating dinner and resting for half an hour, Zhao Gao started to draw out his large saber.

He practiced every move on the field.

Yet, Zhao Gao was not the only one who started practicing on the field.

Most of the archers who were chosen today were hardworking people.

If they had not trained hard, they would not have such a high level of stats to be able to pull the bow and arrow, much less attain the Archery skill..

In this field, everyone had a space to himself or herself. They each practiced their own skills.

They practiced Archery, Black Stone Fists, and Breathing techniques.

None of them would slack on methods that could increase their strength.

Zhao Gao did not stop practicing until 10 at night.

As usual, he began to upgrade his strength.

Firstly, he had to add one point to his Freedom Stats, as well as his Essence and Magic Stats.

After that, Zhao Gao looked at his EXP points and was prepared to use all his EXP points today to improve his Basic Saber Art.

“Storage EXP: 2 677 388”

“Basic Saber Art upgraded successfully! Level 22 396 918” “Level 23 (449 624)”

Zhao Gao looked at his upgraded interface and nodded in satisfaction.

As for the Evaluation? What was that? He did not see it at all!
