Ark of the Immortal

As a teacher, your duty is, of course, to teach.

Checking students' progress is also part of the job.

! Hearing the undead man say this, Maria felt the excitement she had not seen for a long time.

How long has it been since you sparred with a teacher?

I'm done eating!

Maria put down the knife and fork in her hand, wiped her mouth hastily with the napkin on the table, and stood up immediately.

Melanza was stunned for a moment. Just as she was opening her mouth to say something, she saw the undead man's head turning towards her.

Melanza.

The undead man reached out and rubbed Melanza's head.

come together.

The purple-haired kitten subconsciously rubbed the immortal man's palm, and like Maria, put down the knife and fork.

She suddenly felt that maybe she wanted too much.

Seeing Maria's eagerness to try, Melanza nodded in a daze.

I know, teacher.

In fact, it's good now, isn't it?

348.The weight of effort

The sound of swords clashing was like a blacksmith striking iron.

The purest collision between steel and steel is like a person's will being polished.

That's why it is said that the best training method for fighters is sparring. There is no problem that cannot be discovered during sparring.

Any flaws will only be magnified and revealed when you actually meet an opponent.

The three-way sparring between Maria, Melanza, and the undead can be said to be the first time since the undead awakened.

For the first time, he and his two disciples were together, thinking about how to catch the problem in their hands. But in the end he decided to solve the problem in the simplest and purest way.

Still sparring.

At the beginning, it was Melanza's sparring match with the undead.

In fact, the Immortal fought Melanza first because he had his own ideas.

After all, Melantha was his first disciple. No matter how good Maria was, she could not shake Melantha's sense of identity with the undead.

This is not prejudice, but the immortal knows how weak Melantha was before and how bleak her prospects were.

That's why he identifies so much with the tempered Melanza and knows how much hard work she has put in.

In comparison, Maria is more like a child with a treasure of her own, but the undead activated her talent with a little digging.

Melanza's sparring with the undead still uses the most traditional method.

The undead rented an empty warehouse near Melanza's hotel as a temporary residence for the undead competition during this period.

The sparring between the two took place in the warehouse, in this open area.

The undead took out the spiral sword from the bonfire.

The sword itself was just an ordinary iron sword. The undead had forcibly twisted the blade into the shape in memory.

But after being burned by the flames for a long time, it seemed to have some power of its own.

Using a weapon that has been burned to the ground but has a full weight and a similar center of gravity is indeed very suitable for sparring with Melanza.

When Melanza had just grasped the straight knife in her hand, the undead man had already attacked first.

Melanza naturally knew that from the moment the two stood up, it was their game.

Even the speed of drawing the knife and whether to be wary of the opponent are also part of the training.

Then, the straight sword was unsheathed like an aurora, placed on the spiral sword in front of him, and blocked.

The undead continued to attack, but Melanza used her own methods to resolve them one by one.

The undead will not always increase their output, because skills are useless in the face of absolute power.

As long as the undead man can cut off Melanza's straight sword with one sword, she won't have any blocking skills to use.

But in this case, the meaning of exercise is lost.

And when the undead man's output slowly maintained a stable state, Melanza knew that her opportunity had come.

She gradually adapted to the undead attacks, trying to find a point in the undead attacks where she could counterattack.

The undead would also subconsciously reveal some flaws of their own creation to her, allowing Melanza to attack.

There had been two minutes between the two of them going back and forth.

In these two minutes, both the immortal and Melanza maintained extremely high physical strength in attacking and defending.

This is also the concept that the undead instilled in Melanza.

Her personality is relatively introverted, and to put it mildly, she is a bit cowardly.

An individual's character will be truly reflected on his or her sword, causing irreversible effects.

So the undead are also trying to find ways to change Melanza's temperament.

All along, the undead have taught Melanza the techniques of attacking.

All dodging, parrying, and retreating are preparations for the next attack.

Although Melanza has done a great job. But she still lacks the aura to cut through everything.

I have seen the undead, and besides him, there are also several real Tai Sword masters.

Once the blade is sheathed, it's as if all the glory has been restrained, and the moment the sword is drawn, the edge is unleashed, moving forward indomitably.

It is a pity that Melanza today can only show some signs of momentum, and is far from being able to compare with those real masters.

Therefore, the result of this sparring session was no surprise.

Melanza maintained a high-intensity attack for more than five minutes, and at the same time, he had to beware of the undead's sword tips coming from various weird angles.

She originally tried to take the initiative, but in the end her rhythm was disrupted. Her breathing was stagnant, and the undead man pressed the tip of the spiral sword against her lower abdomen.

Panting, Melanza's next knife that she was planning to strike stopped in the air.

Very good, the flaws are getting smaller and smaller.

The immortal nodded. Today's Melanza has improved compared to the past few days.

It seems that the Warriors Conference was indeed an experience for Melanza, and she learned a lot from it.

But momentum.

The immortal made a habitual comment.

You couldn't hold me down. I found the opportunity.

yes.

Melanza naturally knew that, but the undead's integrated attack and defense was too foul.

Even with only an old, red-hot spiral sword in her hand, Melanza felt like she was facing an airtight wall.

She couldn't imagine how despair the teacher would make his enemies feel with the shield in his hands when Casimir was active as a warrior knight.

After correcting Melanza's movements, the undead man asked her to take a rest temporarily.

Melantha came and stood beside Maria.

After the strenuous activity just now, she had to take two or three more steps to slowly recover.

Sister Melanza is so amazing!

Eh?

Melanza heard the praise for herself, and the enthusiastic voice made her cheeks that were already rosy due to strenuous exercise become even more rosy.

Actually, it's okay. I still can't break through the teacher's defense circle.

You're talking like I'm good at it! You're the only one I've seen who can make a teacher focus on defense for so long!

While sorting out her armor, Maria picked up the left shield and fixed it on her left arm.

Is it my turn next?

Melanza was about to answer when she heard the voice of the undead.

Maria.

arrive!

Maria jumped up to the undead man.

While looking at the undead expectantly, Maria stroked the long sword at her waist.

She had been waiting for this moment for so long that she almost forgot what the teacher looked like when he took action.

Bring out all your strength.

The undead man held the spiral sword with one hand and looked at Maria in front of him.

Let me see your progress.

To be honest, the undead people are very much looking forward to Maria's strength.

First, Bloodthorn mentioned to him more than once how terrible Maria's progress was, and then he saw her pass the Warriors Conference and come to Yasenus.

No matter what, Maria's strength will definitely not be worse than Melanza, that's for sure.

However, to what extent Maria has refined her power, the sword and shield in her hands will tell her the answer.

Then, Maria's expression became serious, and she reached out and touched the long sword at her waist.

The sword was slightly faded, but its shiny surface still showed Maria's love for it.

Yes, this is Maria's weapon, a gift given to her by the undead when they parted.

Even though the sword was covered with scars, even the corners were chipped. But even as she pulled it out, Melanza could feel the numbness reaching the center of her eyebrows.

Sun Knight straight sword.

It was once the sword used by the unknown knight of war when he participated in Casimir's war. After the war knight left Casimir, he gave it to his disciple.

I hope that one day my disciples will have the strength and will to pull out this sword.

The golden gems embedded in the hilt of the sword seemed to have thin lightning marks flickering, giving the entire old straight sword a different kind of brilliance.

When the undead man saw the long sword on Maria's waist, he felt a sense of nostalgia in his mind.

After all, this was a weapon he had used before, and he saw that Maria had maintained it so well. Since it looked like it was when he delivered it, I was naturally happy.

You are qualified to pull it out.

The spiral sword in the hands of the undead seems to be heating up.

The blade with some traces of embers distorted the surrounding air in a trance, trying to ignite flames on the sword.

I hope I won't disappoint the teacher.

Maria was wearing Casimir-style fine armor, and she made the standard starting movements of a sword and shield knight.

The left shield protects the front of the body, and the long sword in the right hand is slightly tilted with the entire body, hiding the long sword at the side of the body.

Then, she was the first to attack!

Um.

The undead man hummed slightly, expressing his satisfaction.

Maria's fighting ability is truly amazing.

Just after watching Melanza's battle, Maria judged that the undead was holding a spiral sword. It must be difficult to handle offense when faced with pressure.

Therefore, even though she was a sword and shield knight known for her stability, she launched the attack resolutely.

The shield in his left hand took two steps forward and was held in front of him, but his eyes were on the upper part of the shield, and his sight was not blocked.
