A few days later, the first day of the class competition began.
Fang Xingjian stopped slowly in the practice room, looked at the level 20 Tailan Wind Sword on the panel, and let out a sigh of relief.
"It's finally done."
What satisfied Fang Xingjian was that the Tailan Wind Sword was still not the full level at level 20. In addition to the three-foot sword light, it also had a special ability at level 20.
For the level 20 Tailan Wind Sword, the user's understanding of swordsmanship and air flow is at its peak. Not only can it create various sword qi out of thin air, but it can also control qi with the sword, and control the sword with qi.
…
The college's class competition was held in a canyon more than ten kilometers to the east. The entire canyon runs north-south, two kilometers long and one kilometer wide. The cliffs are about 100 meters high. The canyon is overgrown with vegetation and there are countless small and violent animals.
But now, countless people have chosen the best position on the cliff, each overlooking the battlefield in the canyon.
There are 4 days of class competitions, the first two days are group competitions, and each class has one game per day.
The third day, the fourth day is the knockout round. The top two teams in the class competition will directly enter the semi-finals. The third, fourth, fifth and sixth teams will compete in two games to determine the two teams and the team with the highest score in the group stage. The top two advance to the semifinals.
The fifth day is the final.
The way each game is played is that the two teams enter the arena at the southernmost and northernmost ends of the canyon respectively. There will be a small fortress in their entry location. As long as they capture the opponent's small fortress, they will win. .
And if neither side can capture the other side's fortress for more than 2 hours, then it will be considered a draw.
The only condition for capturing the fort is that there is no resistance from the opponent in the entire fort.
This kind of competition is obviously full of confrontation, but because they are knights canonized by the country after all, the use of lethal attacks is prohibited throughout the entire competition, and the focus is on exchanges.
But even so, there will still be knights who are seriously injured in the competition every year, and even knights will die every few years. After all, swords have no eyes, not to mention that if you want to have actual combat effects, you have to bear certain risks. If the knights of law want to improve, actual combat is also inevitable.
And today's first match was Fang Xingjian's Class 256 against Class 253 who was three years earlier than them. Because it is more difficult to beat the 252 class of Renault, Xiuyi and others, most people think that whether they can beat the 253 class is a key to whether they qualify for the group.
Jack, Anthony, Barbara, Ferdinand and others had already entered the arena, standing in front of the fort at the southern end, looking anxiously at the direction of the entrance cave.
Barbara frowned and said, "Konitz can't come, but what's going on with Fang Xingjian? It starts in three minutes, why hasn't he arrived yet?"
"Don't worry, he will definitely come." Anthony said to himself, but he also kept his eyes fixed on the direction of the cave entrance.
While everyone was waiting anxiously, there was a sudden sound of clanging metal collisions coming from the direction of the cave entrance. It sounded like countless metals colliding together, and the sound came from afar.
"what sound?"
"Is Fang Xingjian here?"
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Fang Xingjian slowly walked out of the cave with a huge basket on his back. There were at least thirty metal long swords placed in the basket. They kept shaking and colliding with Fang Xingjian's footsteps. , making a crisp sound.
Barbara frowned: "What is this guy doing?"
Ferdinand also looked at Fang Xingjian in confusion.
Zhou Yong and Carter felt anxious after seeing Fang Xingjian. Without Kaunitz as a backer, they were really afraid that Fang Xingjian would take revenge on him. After all, they had also maliciously slandered Fang Xingjian many times.
Jack ran up, looked at a large pile of swords in Fang Xing's sword basket, and asked curiously, "Why do you bring so many swords?"
"One sword is not enough." Fang Xingjian glanced at the crowd slightly, and Barbara and the others' hairs stood on end, and immediately felt as if the blade of the sword had brushed against their necks.
"This guy!" Ferdinand was terrified, looking at the expressionless Fang Xingjian, and sighed inwardly, "This guy's sword skills are getting more and more terrifying."
After thinking for a while, he went up and cupped his hands and said, "Fang Xingjian, there were some conflicts between us before, but it was just a misunderstanding. I hope we can clear up the misunderstanding in the future and work together to fight for the state election."
While speaking, he took out a palm-sized square box from his pocket and handed it to Fang Xingjian.
Fang Xingjian took the box and opened it to see that there were a few strips of gold inside. He estimated that there were about fifty gold pieces.
Nodding his head, putting the box in his arms casually, Fang Xingjian said, "Okay, I know about you."
Barbara behind Ferdinand said angrily, "Ferdinand! What are you doing?"
Ferdinand said impatiently: "We didn't have any fatal conflicts with Fang Xingjian. It used to be because of Kaunitz's friendship. Now that Kaunitz has left by himself, I don't understand what you are still insisting on?"
Barbara stomped her feet angrily, and Robert and Burris, two heirs of the martial arts school, also walked to Fang Xingjian's side.
Robert took the lead and said, "Xingjian, tell us what to do in the next game, we will listen to you." Robert looked at Fang Xingjian and showed a friendly smile, not as arrogant and domineering as before.
Carter and Zhou Yong on the side wanted to come over to apologize again, but they couldn't let go of their face. They were not as flexible as Robert, which made the two look helpless.
Seeing this scene, Barbara's face became even more angry: "What are you all doing! Just because he took office as Storm Swordsman, you are willing to be his henchmen?"
Ferdinand's face suddenly became gloomy. Barbara scolded him together. He said coldly, "Barbara, are you not smart enough to speak? Bite people with your mouth open?"
Seeing Robert, Ferdinand, Burris, Zhou Yong, and Carter all staring at her, Barbara also became weak all of a sudden, but the anger on her face remained, she took a deep breath and said, "Fang Xingjian, Don't think that I will listen to you once you take office as the Storm Swordsman, I, Barbara, am not like some people who are obsessed with profit and surrender to the powerful. Don't expect me to listen to you in this competition!"
Fang Xingjian didn't speak, he didn't bother to pay attention to the self-righteous Barbara, he just walked a hundred meters away from the fortress, and inserted the long swords in the basket into the ground one by one.
"Listen, you guys, the game in a while..."
As he spoke, he walked quickly, and the long swords were inserted into the ground like lightning. Each long sword was separated by a distance of one or two meters.
"I'm enough alone..." Fang Xingjian pointed to the sword circle where the long sword was inserted, and said, "All of you hide behind this line, and whoever comes out, I will beat him."
"Fang Xingjian!" Barbara yelled first, "Why are you crazy?"
The faces of the other people also became a little ugly. Fang Xingjian did this completely to look down on them.
Ferdinand also said with a gloomy face: "Fang Xingjian, we know you are very powerful, but what you did is too insulting."
"It's okay if you don't listen." Fang Xingjian shook his head, looked at the crowd and waved, and said with a smile, "Then I'll kill you first, and then go to the competition." The reason Fang Xingjian did this is because he can control it by himself. The rhythm of the game is to fully fight everyone on the other side, and wantonly learn swordsmanship secretly in the battle.
At the same time as he finished speaking, the mental method in his mind was running more smoothly, as if he had broken through another obstacle.
At the same time, his eyes lit up, as if sword lights were flashing in it, especially when he stared at Zhou Yong, the only person in class 256 who practiced swordsmanship, he gave a look as if he was looking at food.
He still remembers the Nourishing Sword of Theresia College, and there are still a few sets that he hasn't learned from Kaunitz.
