Chapter 55 - Win at all costs

Kurogane Kakki lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something.

His expression was so focused that he didn't even hear Jiang Li's words.

"Hello."

It wasn't until the sound came from his ears that Kuitie Yihui suddenly woke up, and saw Jiang Li who had come a foot in front of him.

"Your senses have become so dull, it's not like you!"

Seeing the frightened expression on Heitie Yihui's face, Jiang Li said in surprise.

Kurogane Kakki is a swordsman, and he is a very good swordsman. His senses are very keen. Unless he devotes 10% of his attention to thinking, it is impossible for him to reveal the feeling of being frightened by ordinary greetings. expression.

"Sorry, I was thinking about something and got a little too involved."

Kurotsutsu Ikki gave a wry smile, and then showed apology on his face, "I didn't hear what you said just now?"

"I asked Stella why she wasn't here."

"Oh, I got up early today and finished the run without waking her up."

He Tie Yihui patted his cheek, as if trying to focus his distracted attention, and replied to Jiang Li.

Taking a closer look, he found that his black undershirt was indeed soaked in sweat. Judging from his physical fitness, he must have undergone quite intense exercise before sweat appeared.

"Well... what's on your mind?"

Jiang Li groaned for a while, and then asked with some doubts.

"Why do you say that?"

"I'm still a swordsman anyway, I can still see your absent-mindedness."

Jiang Li said sincerely.

Concentration or not will be clearly shown on the face of the person.

The most convincing evidence is that teachers can always tell whether you are in a daze in the classroom.

"...so obvious."

Hearing the words, Ikki Kurotsutsu couldn't help being slightly taken aback, and then showed a somewhat helpless expression.

"You're right, I do have something on my mind, it's about today's game... But there's no problem, I can definitely win."

Speaking of which, it seems that the first round of Kazuki Kurogane's match took place this afternoon.

Jiang Li suddenly realized when he heard the words, "Is the pressure too great?"

"It would be a lie to say there is no pressure."

Kurogane Kakki thought for a while, and his expression became a little complicated.

"After all, the opponent's ability is indeed very restrained to me. It must be a hard battle, but it doesn't matter. I have already found a way to attack the opponent."

For Kurogane Kakki, this was a battle that he could never lose.

Shinguji Kurono promised him that as long as he could become the Seven Star Sword King, he would be allowed to graduate from Pojun Academy. This was an opportunity he had waited for a long time, and he would seize it even if he desperately wanted it.

He has great ambitions, but ambitions can sometimes become a huge pressure.

Just in the first round of the selection battle, he encountered an overwhelmingly unfavorable opponent. The opponent's cutting ability was greatly restrained by him, which made him feel faintly uneasy.

The ideal in his heart has become a huge weight on his shoulders at this moment.

He would think about something so seriously that he would forget himself so much that he didn't even notice the footsteps. Maybe he was thinking about ways to attack the opponent.

According to him, he has already found out the flaws in the opponent's ability and found a way to attack the opponent.

"That's it, then let's work hard together."

Jiang Li knew that Kuitie Yihui was a very assertive person, so he didn't say much when he saw this, but just cheered.

"Together?"

"Well, don't you know? The opponent I will face tomorrow is also extremely bad."

Jiang Li spread his hands helplessly, and said with an annoyed expression, "Besides, unlike you, I haven't found a way to attack the other party until now."

Guide was on the other side, his opponent in the first battle.

Jiang Li had asked his senior sister about the other party's ability, and when he found out, he was shocked and subconsciously felt great pressure.

In the list of the Pojun Academy at the end of last year, the rich woman Bifang ranked second, second only to Senior Sister Daohua. They were the only two B-level knights in the Pojun Academy before this year.

Not only that, but they have all participated in "special conscripts" and have experienced confronting and fighting terrorists several times, and they are not in the same standard as other student knights.

And the most important thing is her machete ability.

Her ability is very restrained to a simple hand-to-hand swordsman like him, and it is impossible to defend against, so that he has not been able to think of an effective attack method until now.

"So it's Gui Deyuan-senpai? Indeed, if I run into her, I'll definitely be quite annoyed... I'm afraid the only way to deal with someone like that is a quick attack at the beginning?"

Ikki Kurotsutsu spoke so self-consciously, with some uncertainty in his tone.

"That's what I thought too, but my gut told me it might not work."

Jiang Li shook his head.

His intuition is very strong, and he can give absolutely correct instructions during the battle, as if he can predict the future, which is completely enough to compete with the dumb hairy king in the next-door moon world.

His intuition told him that it might not be realistic to solve Guideyuanbifang with a quick attack.

"That's all I can say, let's work hard together."

Hearing that, Kurotetsu Ikki had no choice but to laugh helplessly.

He looked at Jiang Li's eyes with a feeling of sympathy.

After the two finished speaking, they left separately.

Ikki Kurogane packed his backpack and walked towards the dormitory.

Jiang Li started his morning run alone.

Loli had to sleep late in the morning, and it was impossible to accompany him to get up early to exercise, so she couldn't lend him the ground binding array. Jiang Li got up early in the morning and couldn't take a break. In order to avoid wasting time, he came here for a morning jog.

With the continuous lifting and falling of both feet, sweat gradually seeped out from the forehead, the lungs heaved and contracted greatly, and the brain gradually began to lack oxygen, quickly approaching the limit.

All the cells and bones in the whole body were clamoring to stop and rest, as if the soreness that might strike at any time invaded the whole body, Jiang Li ignored it and just kept squeezing the last bit of strength from his body.

Then the power surged up one after another, as if there was no limit.

How can we win?

My brain turned into a mess, but such thoughts subconsciously emerged in my mind.

Some people say that the first thought that emerges unconsciously is what the person cares most about.

Although he behaved calmly in front of Heitie Yihui, Jiang Li's heart was far from open-minded.

He really didn't care if the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival was fake or not, but he was very unwilling to lose.

Whenever he loses to someone, that weakness will remind him of himself who was weak, poor, and powerless when he was lying on the hospital bed when he was a child, and a deep sense of unwillingness will come to his heart.

To win!

Never lose!

Do everything you can to win!

In a daze, along with the emerging stubbornness, his eyes gradually became clear, his feet seemed to regain strength, and his gradually decadent footsteps stepped on the ground forcefully again.

The so-called physical exercise, in the final analysis, is to constantly break through the limits of oneself.
