Nine-layer armor-breaking

Chapter 150 Attracting Attention (First Order)

Seeing Jiang Xuan preparing to attack, Warrior No. 1 gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, and immediately held the slightly heavy short sword across his chest, ready to meet Jiang Xuan's first attack.

Based on his judgment of Jiang Xuan and his own combat experience, he predicted that Jiang Xuan would attack his upper body. To be more specific, he believed that Jiang Xuan would attack his chest.

"Humph!"

Sure enough, Jiang Xuan flew towards him. When the two got close, Warrior No. 1 snorted coldly.

As he expected, Jiang Xuan attacked his chest.

Having correctly predicted the opponent's attack position, Warrior No. 1 naturally felt happy and his mentality on the field couldn't help but relax a lot.

However, as a Heavenly Rank warrior, he really underestimated the strength of a high-level Heavenly Rank warrior.

Being underestimated by the opponent is obviously a good thing. Jiang Xuan continued to test Warrior Number One.

The sword was not yet unsheathed, and Jiang Xuan just kept putting pressure on Warrior No. 1, forcing Warrior No. 1 to take action.

However, although Jiang Xuan's dagger had not yet been unsheathed, Warrior No. 1 was once again shocked by Jiang Xuan's speed.

"His speed can actually be improved!" Warrior No. 1 thought to himself.

What he didn't know was that if Jiang Xuan carried a black rhinoceros on his back and wore fine iron armor, his speed might not be noticeable at all, and he might even be at a slight disadvantage compared to the more outstanding warriors of the same level.

However, at this time Jiang Xuan obviously only had a short sword. Without the black rhinoceros and fine iron armor, Jiang Xuan's speed was almost completely released.

In other words, Jiang Xuan, who was standing on the training ground at this moment, was not inferior to any high-level heavenly warrior in speed.

Even if you encounter some peak warriors, your speed disadvantage is not obvious. If you face some peak warriors who do not win by speed, you can even compete with them in terms of speed.

When Jiang Xuan got close, Warrior No. 1, who had relaxed his consciousness and underestimated Jiang Xuan's speed, began to be unable to react in time.

In a hurry, he held the knife in one hand and supported it with the other hand, and swung the blade diagonally to the upper right, exerting force.

There are many warriors who use swords and knives.

And because of this, there are many warriors who use swords and knives. For most warriors, even if their commonly used weapons are not swords and knives, they have to learn some basic sword and knife skills because they have to deal with a large number of opponents using swords and knives.

Therefore, even though Jiang Xuan had not fought against other warriors much before leaving Yingzhou, he still knew some basic swordsmanship.

Obviously, the basics of swordsmanship also came from his martial arts mentor, his father Jiang Yuan.

In this way, he quickly captured the opponent's movements and knew clearly what the warrior No. 1 was thinking next.

According to Jiang Xuan's judgment, Warrior No. 1 wanted to deflect Jiang Xuan's unsheathed dagger.

Jiang Xuan, who understood the other party's intentions, naturally would not let him succeed.

When he was less than one step away from Warrior No. 1, Jiang Xuan quickly changed direction and went behind Warrior No. 1.

Warrior No. 1 subconsciously made a blocking move. He was completely unprepared for Jiang Xuan's move, and naturally, he missed.

"Shh!"

The result was not as Warrior No. 1 had expected, there would not be a loud sound of two swords clashing.

Only the sound of a sword swinging was heard, and with the swift power of Warrior No. 1, the sound was quite loud.

The cold light emitted from Warrior No. 1's sword flashed swiftly through the air.

As the "swish" sound that was carried by the wind fell, Warrior No. 1, who had missed his target, was ready to turn around immediately to guard against Jiang Xuan's possible attack from behind.

"Huh?" Warrior No. 1 shouted in surprise.

At this moment, he can no longer move!
"This...is it over?"

"Number one hundred and seventy-five hasn't even unsheathed his sword yet!"

...In the Tianjie Martial Arts Arena, the audience let out exclamations of disbelief.

After several attempts at pressure, Jiang Xuan was unable to force Warrior No. 1 to use any new moves. He decided not to waste any more time and wanted to end the battle quickly.

Almost at the same time as he got behind Warrior No. 1, Jiang Xuan placed the short knife, including the sheath, on Warrior No. 1's neck.

The occurrence of this situation obviously means the end of the competition.

As a fellow Heavenly Rank warrior, Warrior No. 1 would understand what the consequences would be if Jiang Xuan had unsheathed his dagger just now.

Warrior No. 1 had considered the possibility of escape, but when he was about to lower his head to check his neck, he suddenly lost the idea of ​​escaping.

In other words, even if there was a slight chance of escape, he had no interest in doing so.

Jiang Xuan's action of putting the knife on Warrior No. 1's neck seemed casual, but it did not leave his opponent much chance to escape.

Warrior No. 1 did not struggle anymore. He just sheathed his sword, calmly reached out his hand, and gently tapped the scabbard of Jiang Xuan's dagger.

"The first round of the Heavenly Class, the 81st match, number 175 versus number 1, the warrior number 175 wins!"

Seeing this, how could the female warrior not know that the match had already been decided? A clear voice rang out, announcing Jiang Xuan's victory in this match.

I have to say, Jiang Xuan was still a little disappointed.

Although before going on stage, Jiang Xuan had already heard from everyone that his opponent, known as the Little Butcher of Southern Yunnan Province, was a warrior who had just entered the Heavenly Rank.

Facing a warrior at the initial stage of Heavenly Rank, Jiang Xuan naturally did not consider the possibility of losing.

But since the opponent is well-known, fighting with this warrior may not be a thrilling battle, but at least it can force him to use more moves.

And more new moves can also provide some practice inspiration for Jiang Xuan's battles with other sword-wielding warriors.

However, Jiang Xuan still didn't expect that Warrior No. 1 never took the initiative to approach him from beginning to end, let alone touch Jiang Xuan at all.

Even when Jiang Xuan was in the martial arts arena, he left some room for his opponent to break through, but the warrior number one did not choose to do so.

Jiang Xuan always felt that Warrior No. 1 was a little weird. He seemed absent-minded in the training ground, as if he had some thoughts.

However, since the competition is over, Jiang Xuan needs to hide his identity, so it is naturally inconvenient for him to communicate too much with his opponent.

In that case, Jiang Xuan simply remained silent, nodded to Warrior No. 1, and then he and his opponent walked down the training ground separately.

……

"What? So fast?"

"Alas... I was waiting for the next move from Warrior Number One, but I didn't expect there would be no next move."

"Is this the number one warrior? Laughing!"

"With such strength, he's the first one to sign up. No wonder he's never participated in the Five States Martial Arts Show before."

"Don't you think there are a lot of warriors coming from Dianzhou this time? How strange!"

"Aren't you all curious about the warrior number 175 wearing the green hood?"

"What are you curious about? It's normal for a high-level Heavenly Rank warrior to defeat a junior warrior!"

"But you didn't notice his speed..."

……

Just as Jiang Xuan walked off the martial arts field, the discussions in the audience continued.

Although some people didn't say it, they had already noticed the warrior No. 175 wearing a green masked hood.
