"Block! Left! Block! Right! Down! Block again! Pay attention to your steps! Don't just back off! Use your steps! Yes! Come again!"

Following Kevin's strong voice prompting, he held a wooden hammer in his hand and attacked Xia Ya. Xia Ya also had a wooden axe in his hand, but the handle of the axe was lengthened, about A meter long.

Xiaya cheered up and resisted Kevin's attack one by one. Kevin's attack speed was not too fast. His black hair had been wet with sweat, and it was sticking to his forehead in strands. Kevin was also panting, his bald head covered in oil and sweat.

The two advanced and retreated back and forth, one attacked and the other defended, and the wooden weapons in their hands ping-pong-pong handed over more than ten times. Finally, Kevin took a sudden step, pressed down slightly, leaned over and sprinted, and hit Xiaya with a hammer. On his thigh, he immediately picked it up and smashed the wooden axe in Xia Ya's hand!

"Stop!" Kevin sighed and motioned to Xiaya to pick up the axe. The bald man looked at Xiaya, his face flushed from the strenuous exercise, he gasped for a while, and smiled bitterly: "Very good, this time you You blocked me twenty-seven times, and I only hit you three times."

A whistle and whistling sound came from the side immediately. There were more than a dozen soldiers onlookers, and the one who whistled the loudest was the sly Cato. He clapped his hands and laughed and said, "Good job Xia! Nice work!" Then Cato faced The companion beside him stretched out his hand with a smile: "Give the money to the money! Hurry up, don't renege on the bill!"

A group of personal soldiers laughed and scolded and took out more or less copper and silver coins.

"Kevin, didn't you eat breakfast! You played softly! I lost money again!"

"Xia Ya, you are not a fucking human! The money I lost will be charged to your account! Haha! Next time you pay the army, you will invite everyone to drink!"

This trial has been going on for three days.

During the last scout reconnaissance operation, Xiaya showed a strong combat effectiveness, which made Kevin quite admire. The two lived in the same tent and practiced martial arts when they were free. Kevin discovered Xiaya. One of the major flaws of the fighter: when this guy is fighting, he relies entirely on his powerful strength and super physical fitness to bully people, and when it comes to martial arts, he is simply a mess!

Of course, this mess doesn't mean that Char's martial skills are too bad - on the contrary, his attack methods are very powerful, especially when a set of "chopping wood and axe" is used, even with Kevin's impressive strength, he can't resist. It's just weird and unpredictable, it's clearly an axe skill that slashes and kills, but it's been used by Xia Ya to be haunted! With Kevin already reaching the strength of a mid-level first-level warrior, he couldn't stop Xi Ya's axe.

No matter how stupid Xia Ya is, she understands that the set of "Breaking and Killing Thousands of Armies" that the old guy taught him is definitely an extremely powerful axe skill.

But compared to Char's attacking tricks, his defensive ability is simply rotten to the extreme!

This can't blame him, because the old guy never taught him martial arts seriously and systematically at all when he was alive - that set of killing a thousand soldiers was taught to him in the daily routine of chopping wood and stabbing coal. As for defensive martial arts, Xia Ya has never practiced it at all!

In the past, when confronting the enemy, he relied on his strong physical fitness and the rapid response he had cultivated when fighting beasts in the mountains and forests - but this was only limited to his instinctive reactions after all, but he did not systematically learn defense. move.

If he can only attack but not defend, he will not be able to survive for a long time on the battlefield - Kevin still doesn't know that Char has a super physique strengthened by dragon blood. But even if there is a physique strengthened by dragon blood, it is not omnipotent. At least if you meet an opponent who has a mid-level fighting spirit, you can break through Xia Ya's body defense!

Therefore, the shortcomings of defensive skills have become Xiaya's biggest flaw. He can still deal with ordinary opponents, but when he encounters strong enemies, he will be in trouble. At least Xiaya knew very well in his heart that he would have turned into a pile of dead bones on the Wildfire Plain if it wasn't for the sudden explosion of the magic crystal left by the old guy when he encountered those dark night forests last time.

Kevin enthusiastically began to teach Char some basic combat skills, especially focusing on training Char's defensive tactics. When the two are practicing against each other, they don't need vindictiveness and real strength, they just practice moves.

At the beginning, if Xi Ya didn't use that strange power, he would be knocked down by Kevin's weapon at most two or three times, and then the vital part of his body would soon be hit. On the first day, Xia Ya was taught a terrible lesson and was beaten by Kevin - this made the other Guardsmen who were watching on the side laugh when the two were practicing against each other - because From the beginning to the end, it was simply that Xia Ya was abused unilaterally.

That night, the turtle barely slept all night, and repeatedly recalled the offensive tricks Kevin used during the day, as well as the defensive skills explained to himself. Until dawn, when Kevin woke up, he saw this comrade sitting on the bed in a daze with red eyes.

On the second day of the trial, Xia Ya made great progress. Under Kevin's attack, he insisted on more than ten moves before he was hit. This situation immediately attracted other training soldiers. Everyone Immediately scrambled to be the referee, and the rest made bets on how long the rookie could last under Kevin's attack.

Although he was teased by everyone, Xiaya knew very well that these teasers were well-intentioned, full of the kind of good-natured teasing between comrades-in-arms, and this was also a good signal: at least it represented that he was beginning to be accepted by this group.

After returning from the scout operation, Kevin did not hide the fact that Xia Ya had saved his life, and the upright bald man also expressed his approval of Xia Ya. With Wen's help, Xia Ya was quickly accepted by the personal soldiers, and his temperament was also forthright. This kind of character is very popular in the environment of the army.

In the second day's trial, in the final round of trials, Xi Ya not only blocked all of Kevin's attacks, but also hit Kevin once during the counterattack. Although it was not the key point, for everyone, This has been amazing progress - everyone realizes, this kid really has something!

On the third day of the trial, more people were attracted, and even later, some guys with better martial skills in the personal soldiers began to volunteer to take turns with Kevin to feed Xi Ya—in Cato’s words, it was free Go up and cruelly abuse this rookie.

"You are too nervous and pay too much attention to the steps under your feet, and you forget the movements of your hands. You have to turn these into your instincts. If you think about it deliberately, and then do the movements, it will inevitably be slower." Kevin is serious about his experience.

"Okay, Kevin, you must have failed to destroy Xia Ya's weapon within the specified number of times. You are so embarrassed, hahahaha!" The tallest man next to him grinned.

"Sharba, shut up for Lao Tzu." Kevin laughed and scolded: "You and Xia Bibi have the ability!"

"Me? I don't do it! I don't have a hobby of wrestling with bulls." The strong man touched his chin—this guy is called Sharba, and he is also a member of the personal force. Before Char's arrival, he He is recognized as the number one strongman in the Guards, but the night before, he had a fair wrestling with Xia Ya and was almost broken by Xia Ya, so he was convinced.

Compared with strength, he, a human, seems to be incomparable to that monster.

After three days, Xia Ya and most of the personal soldiers were already familiar with each other. Naturally, there is a credit to Kevin here.

※※※

Although he couldn't use brute force, at the end of each day's trial, Xi Ya was still half-tired, and the sweat all over his body soaked his clothes, as if he was pulled out of the water.

Seeing this turtle return to the tent, Dotolo murmured in his heart: I wish he had been beaten all over the head. Thinking like this, he quickly greeted him with a respectful smile on his face: "Master Xia, you're back..."

Xiaya threw the wooden axe directly to Kevin. Although it was made of wood, the huge axe almost smashed Dodo Luo directly to the ground. He reluctantly hugged the axe and followed Xiaya staggeringly.

"Go get some water, I want to take a bath... Also, have you fed the horse? It's my turn to patrol tonight... Don't forget to wipe off my armor." Xia threw herself on the bed, feeling so tired that her whole body felt exhausted. The bones are falling apart.

Dotolo trotted out all the way with low eyebrows and pleasing to the eye, but his face immediately turned into a resentful expression. He grabbed a brush placed in the corner, ran to remove a set of heavy light riding armor, and carefully brushed the dust on it. , and then carefully apply lubricating grease to the joints of the armor. The poor magician was covered in oil and dust, and his face was disgraced, and he cursed in his heart for his unjust fate.
