Chapter 542 Swordsmanship (First Update)
"Brother Jie, you said that after winning the sword fighting competition, you can be awarded a noble title?" Yang Bo asked with some curiosity. The title of the Blue Water Empire is not easy to get.
"You may not know that the Blue Water Empire's Noble Association still maintains the oldest duel."
"When the conflict between two nobles is irreconcilable, both sides will send their own people to participate in the duel."
"Their nobles say that they are civilized people, so they cannot use superpowers or modern technology in duels. They can only use the oldest armor and the oldest sword."
"And the Blue Water Empire's nobles will also hold sword fighting competitions regularly." Liu Zhijie explained.
Yang Bo played with the teacup in his hand, and then asked in confusion: "Superpowers are extremely powerful, so whoever has greater power will win?"
"There are very detailed rules. It doesn't mean whoever has greater power will win, but it depends on skills. If the power is too great and your weapon is damaged, then you will fail."
"There are also similar free duels, but this usually involves a bigger conflict between two nobles."
"Uh..." Liu Jingxiang also changed into a set of clothes, wearing shorts, short sleeves and sneakers, but the tighter ones, like those worn by athletes.
Of course, the meat cultivated in the technology factory is not the cheapest. The cheapest is all kinds of nutrient solution, which can be directly taken in a tube, and you don't need to eat anything at all. This kind is free.
"We are familiar with each other, but we still have to pay. Let's follow the charging standards of our swordsmanship association. What do you think?" Liu Jingxiang nodded when she heard this, and looked at Yang Bo and asked.
Yang Bo watched the video carefully and found that there were many rules in this fencing association. You cannot attack vital parts, you cannot use discriminatory words, and you cannot use fists, feet, knees, etc. You can only use the sword in your hand.
"Change this set of clothes first, and then get the fencing association certification, and the fencing association will send you equipment." When they came to the training room, Liu Jingxiang took a set of clothes and handed it to Yang Bo.
Of course, there are more expensive professions, such as equestrians, who train horse riders.
"Let's go, I just have nothing to do." Liu Jingxiang has been bored recently. Oma City is not very big, and she has already visited it.
Liu Jingxiang's action can be said to be a classic action, and there will be many changes in the future.
"Not everyone is suitable for practicing fencing. People who practice fencing should have long arms, but not too long."
"Huh?" Liu Jingxiang couldn't believe why she didn't see how Yang Bo's sword hit her?
Liu Jingxiang pulled the sword up again and was going to cut Yang Bo's hand again.
But the next second, Liu Jingxiang felt pain on the back of her hand holding the sword. She looked carefully and saw that the sword in Yang Bo's hand had directly hit the back of her hand.
Then there were two sets of shirts, and there was a lining inside the metal armor.
It was the same for the waiter. Of course, if you don't want to tip, just let the robot serve.
But who is Yang Bo? He originally planned to use the excuse of learning swordsmanship to improve his combat effectiveness.
As long as Yang Bo reacted, Liu Jingxiang would take out a set of swordsmanship to let Yang Bo know why the flowers were so red.
As soon as Yang Bo saw Liu Jingxiang's expression, he felt that Liu Jingxiang had some bad intentions.
Zero is used by beginners, and One is used by first-level swordsmen. Yang Bo just touched it and knew that the materials and weights of the two were different.
Yang Bo asked in surprise: "I haven't started learning anything yet?"
Because Yang Bo's figure is too perfect, just like those trained by fitness experts.
"I like to exercise since I was a child!"
"No problem." The interpersonal relationships on the alliance side are a bit like those of Westerners on Earth, and they are very clear about money.
"Tsk tsk, this body is very suitable for swordsmanship."
"Swordsmanship competition countdown, 321 starts!" This is the sound from the smart device.
Yang Bo felt a little awkward, a man and a woman alone in a room, mainly because Yang Bo and Liu Jingxiang had nothing in common, they had no common hobbies, no common friends, and no common social life.
"It's very simple, as long as your sword can hit my vital parts, do you remember the different scores for different positions mentioned in the video just now? There are also sensors in the sword, and the system will record the power of each of your swords." Liu Jingxiang said it very simply.
It felt like two strangers.
Yang Bo felt that this swordsmanship association was a bit of a rip-off, and it felt like he spent thousands of dollars to buy a garbage bag luxury.
"Just stand in front of this machine and listen to the machine's orders." Liu Jingxiang took Yang Bo to a machine.
"I am now a level 3 swordsman, and the hourly charge is 3,000 credit points. Can you accept it?" Liu Jingxiang heard Yang Bo nod and agree, and then asked again.
At the same time, equipment began to be distributed, and the sword association was distributed in March Star.
"The swords used by the sword association are all of the same standard, so people with long arms have a great advantage when facing opponents." Liu Jingxiang looked at the overall body proportion data of Yang Bo given by the machine.
Liu Jingxiang stepped with her right foot, and the sword in her hand swung to the right as if to attack Yang Bo's right chest, and then instantly stabbed towards Yang Bo's lower left abdomen.
"And this is a test of reaction ability, and you can only gain enough experience in the battle between the two sides." Liu Jingxiang said even more confidently.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the equipment arrived. Yang Bo looked at the equipment worth 200,000 yuan.
Then Yang Bo touched it carefully and found that it was really armor, and it was the worst metal armor.
"That's right, you didn't have anything to do at that time."
In addition, Liu Jingxiang had sent messages to Yang Bo before, and Yang Bo took a long time to reply.
Yang Bo opened it and saw that it was a pair of shorts, so he asked, "Can I not change it?"
"Do you like fitness?" Liu Jingxiang asked in confusion.
Then there were two sets of training clothes, which looked like two sets of ancient armor.
Anyway, in the alliance, many positions that employ people have very high salaries.
"This is really old enough!" Yang Bo was a little speechless.
"Aunt, the situation on March Star has not stabilized yet. You teach Yang Bo swordsmanship so that he can have some self-protection ability." Liu Zhijie also knew that his aunt probably didn't care much about Yang Bo, but Liu Zhijie didn't have any good way to deal with Yang Bo. After all, Yang Bo used to have this otaku personality, and it was definitely unrealistic to want to correct it all at once.
"It feels like a fencing competition on Earth." Yang Bo muttered in his heart after reading it.
"It is said that they have also designed an intelligent system that can automatically judge the whole process, that is, who violates the rules, the system can automatically judge."
But the next second, Yang Bo stepped back again, and the sword in his hand directly touched his sword, and then the other party's sword cut directly into his hand along his sword.
When Liu Jingxiang finished speaking, Liu Zhijie said: "This is considered a company benefit."
"Then I'll trouble Sister Jingxiang. If I don't do well, Sister Jingxiang, please don't be angry." Yang Bo was humble on the surface, but he smiled in his heart. If the woman in front of him played tricks, he would accompany her to the end and see who would laugh last.
"Yang Bo." Liu Jingxiang saw Yang Bo here and naturally knew what Liu Zhijie wanted to do with her?
At first, Liu Jingxiang was a little curious about Yang Bo, after all, she heard Liu Zhijie say so well, but after getting along for a while recently, Liu Jingxiang didn't like Yang Bo very much, because she didn't like Yang Bo's character of staying at home.
"Of course, Yang Bo, swordsmanship is very difficult. It's very hard to practice swordsmanship with me." Liu Jingxiang looked at Yang Bo, and said with a slight smile.
There are two swords, one with zero and the other with one.
But some industry associations are like this. These industry associations act as referees and coaches.
But if he doesn't care, Liu Zhijie can't bear it, after all, Yang Bo has such a good talent.
Women like to go shopping, buy things, and go out to eat and drink.
"I used to live in a welfare house and I'm used to fitness." Yang Bo found an excuse.
Then Yang Bo became a member of the swordsmanship association and was issued a certificate.
"Have you finished watching? Come and fight with me." Liu Jingxiang had been practicing fiercely on the side, and she spoke when she saw Yang Bo finished watching.
"First, you should get familiar with the equipment, and then watch the video explanation." Liu Jingxiang is now wearing her own equipment, giving people the feeling of a female warrior, that is, metal armor.
"Okay then." Yang Bo stood at the competition venue. There was a square venue in the middle, surrounded by smart devices, and there were sensors in the swords and equipment.
"In addition, you must prepare at least 200,000 credit points to purchase relevant basic equipment. As for the professional training room, Liu Zhijie has it, so there is no need to pay extra." Liu's pleasant words shocked Yang Bo again.
"Why are you so fussy? Go over there and choose a cabinet yourself." Liu Jingxiang replied unhappily.
"Thank you, brother Jie." Yang Bo was the first to answer after hearing this.
"Auntie, please have tea." Liu Zhijie first poured tea for Liu Jingxiang.
That's why I thought of this method to give the two of them time to be together.
"No problem." Yang Bo nodded.
There is no need to kill cattle and sheep, and the meat of this kind of animal bred naturally is ridiculously expensive.
Just like winemakers, bartenders, chefs, etc., the salary is higher, not only with salary income but also tips.
Liu Jingxiang looked at Yang Bo's muscles and couldn't believe it.
As for feeding cattle and sheep in the farm, this is even higher salary.
"What kind of equipment costs 200,000 credit points?" Yang Bo was a little confused. Isn't it just a sword?
"These equipment are certified by the fencing association. Different equipment is equipped according to different levels, otherwise the results will not be recognized by the fencing association."
The sword in Liu Jingxiang's hand is a bit like the cross sword on Earth, not the sword of Yang Bo's own country on Earth.
Yang Bo then discovered that the dormitory building was actually converted into some rooms specifically for fitness training.
Liu Jingxiang reacted quickly, and with a turn of her wrist, the sword hilt blocked Yang Bo's sword.
Generally speaking, people in this special skill profession have a high salary level.
Because Liu Jingxiang appeared, Liu Jingxiang had long black hair, wearing a short leather jacket, a white T-shirt inside, and a pair of jeans-like pants on the lower body. The two long legs were like a compass, straight and round.
Yang Bo came to the place where the men's storage box was located.
Yang Bo took off his clothes and changed into shorts. I was wearing four-legged shorts.
But the next second Yang Bo took a step back. Liu Jingxiang saw Yang Bo take a step back, and the sword in her hand followed Yang Bo's hand and cut over.
"It is said that there are group duels. Anyway, those nobles have nothing to do, so they treat this as fun, just like the horse racing here, there are also nobles participating in gambling." Liu Zhijie said here and took out a new cup.
Then Yang Bo began to turn his body and raise his hand under the scanning of the machine.
The muscle lines are clear and he looks full of strength.
Because now many ordinary people eat meat that is cultivated through science and technology, that is to say, a piece of meat is directly cultivated with cells. You can cultivate any part of the meat you want to eat and eat any taste you want.
"Thank you!" Liu Jingxiang said thank you, took the tea and put it on the table, and sat next to Yang Bo.
Liu Jingxiang found that Yang Bo looked better when he took off his clothes, and he looked a little silly when he put on clothes.
"But it seems that there are also duel rules, anyway, it is more complicated."
The whole person flew back, but the next second Liu Jingxiang felt that the sword in Yang Bo's hand seemed to be stuck to her sword, and she threw the sword in her hand directly out.
"Yang Bo wins!" At this time, the intelligent referee shouted a voice.
"You..." Liu Jingxiang was a little dumbfounded. It was only one round, how come the sword in her hand was lost?
