Chapter 263 The Defeat of the Old Sword God

Roya grabbed Esther's hand and looked at her delicate face. Roya stretched out his hand and pinched it. The soft touch made Roya couldn't help but pinch it a few more times.

Esther kept a blank expression throughout the whole process and kept staring at Roya.

Roya was thick-skinned enough and didn't feel the girl's death gaze at all.

Esther sighed at last, and her little face was full of sorrow.

Roya was slightly stunned. The other party's expression seemed to be waiting for him to ask what was wrong?

Roya didn't disappoint the girl's expression and asked naturally: "Esther, what's wrong?"

"Master, you have to grow up quickly."

Esther said so, the coldness on her face faded, and she said so to Roya with a serious face.

Roya: ? ? ?

After chatting with Esther for a while, Esther also disappeared in the dojo, and he was the only one left in the dojo for a while.

Weighing the wooden sword in his hand, Roya began his daily training.

Time went by and it was half a month later.

In the morning, I practiced with the old sword god, and in the afternoon, I practiced by myself. Of course, I didn't practice for too long. Sometimes I would be idle and call Alice and Rudeus over to teach them and see their progress.

Some time ago, Roya asked Alice curiously about how her roommates were getting along.

Alice just said calmly: "I apologized, but I don't know if Nina forgave me."

Roya nodded and didn't ask about the rest.

But the girl looked calm, as if she was just a small character and there was no need to care about her.

After that, Alice came over every week and pestered Roya. Roya didn't refuse, but simply picked up the book and told the girl the story.

Telling stories was only part of it. Roya would also ask Alice how many friends she had made, or how many people would talk to Alice.

Alice's answer was straightforward: "Compared to the endless quarrels before, this time is much better. Basically, they will take a detour when they see me, and there will be no more blind guys coming to talk to me."

Roya translated it and twitched his mouth.

Good guy, Alice was directly treated with cold violence.

But the girl didn't seem to notice it, but was very satisfied with it.

Forget it, let her do whatever she wants. Roya didn't expect Alice to change her temper directly.

Life is as plain and simple as before.

Alice didn't make a fuss, and everyone's training was progressing steadily.

Roya made great progress. To some extent, Roya gradually adapted to the sword skills of the old sword god.

The old sword god is very fast, but Roya is not an ordinary person. In half a month, the two have fought more than 30 times.

In the first dozen fights, the old sword god crushed Roya, but in the last ten times, the old sword god showed a clear decline.

Roya is constantly improving himself, and the high-intensity battles are constantly promoting Roya to learn the swordsmanship of the old sword god. With the blessing of the transparent world and the eyes of the heart, Roya can see the old sword god's sword holding posture and behavior habits clearly.

Naturally, thanks to this, Roya took the opportunity to change some of his bad habits, such as the sword holding posture or breathing skills.

There may be some discomfort when changing, but after training a few more times, Roya's discomfort will soon fade away. Roya can indeed feel that the speed of swinging the sword has increased.

Of course, the real speed increase is not this, but the moment.

The impact of the moment on Roya is still beyond Roya's imagination.

The opening of the word spirit is not one-sided, and the sparring with the old sword god also promotes the progress of the moment.

Whether in terms of thinking or body, Roya can feel a significant improvement.

If you have to compare it, it's like watching a movie, from the original one-time speed to 1.2 times speed.

This subtle change will only accelerate as the moment stage rises.

For a moment, Roya didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

At that time, he might have another title.

The fastest man in the world.

As always, the old sword god stood opposite Roya, holding the sword in one hand, with a cautious look on his face.

This formed two extreme contrasts with the frivolousness of the old sword god when confronting Roya at the beginning.

The reason is that Roya's progress is too fast, so fast that Gar even wondered if this guy had been constantly honing his swordsmanship since his mother's womb to achieve such a high achievement at this age.

Gar was really convinced of Roya.

Gar's tolerance for geniuses is actually very high. After all, he himself is a genius, so even if someone suddenly realizes and changes his body, directly breaking through from a high-level swordsman to the Saint level or even bolder, reaching the King level, Gar would not be surprised.

But learning swordsmanship cannot be counted like this. When a strong person reaches a certain level, it is not so easy to make progress.

In other words, for a high-level swordsman, you can say that he has a lot of room for improvement, just like a guy who usually scores 300 or 400 points in the exam suddenly gets enlightened and scores more than 500 points in the college entrance examination.

This is not impossible. Although the case is rare, it does exist.

Koroya's case is that a guy who scored around 650 points in the college entrance examination broke through himself and reached 700 points.

Although the score increase is only 50 points, it is actually more magical than the guy who scored 500 points.

Friends who have taken the college entrance examination know that in the later review, the higher the score, the more sweat the students will put in for each point increase.

This is because the basic questions of the knowledge points have been completed, and the remaining ones are those difficult questions.

This is the case with learning. The later it is, the harder it is to make progress.

The same is true for sword practice. The later it is, the harder it is to have a shortcut.

This is why some beginners learn swordsmanship as if it is a joke. Breaking through is like eating and drinking water, but they can be stuck in a realm and can't get over that hurdle in their entire lives.

Especially when it comes to Gar, the so-called further progress is just a thought.

Gar has many disciples, such as Chino's father, who is a sword emperor, but in fact, Gar has not seen his disciple make any progress for a long time.

And he also knows his situation and has always wanted to become stronger urgently.

But the fact is that no matter how he asks for advice, that threshold always stands in front of him, becoming a mountain that he cannot cross.

In this comparison, Roya's talent can only be described as a demon.

Gar can only say that there is a gap between the Sword Emperor and the Sword Emperor.

People are such creatures. Some people are born to be favored by the goddess, and all the graces are thrown on a person without money.

Gar sighed and wondered how long it would take for the other party to defeat him.

Maybe in another month or two, when the other party is fully familiar with his swordsmanship, he will no longer be his opponent.

There is nothing to do about it. Even if Gar doesn't want to admit it, he is indeed not as good as before.

His brain has become stupid, and it is difficult to keep up with the thinking of young people. From the recent battles, Gar has deeply understood this.

The slowness of thinking is fatal. Gar is now at the peak of his life, and he can't go any further.

Roya is different. His young and energetic body and unparalleled talent have given Roya the confidence to be calm.

The towering mountains are right in front of us, and the travelers are constantly moving forward.

Perhaps the mountain is very steep and daunting, but the mountain is there, as long as you are willing to climb, you can always climb to the end.

With some emotion in his heart, Gar exerted force with his right hand, took a step forward with his right foot, pressed his center of gravity down, held the wooden sword tightly in his right hand, and tried to look calm on his face.

Gar no longer used the Iai stance, he now used the front-stage stance, which in a sense was also the one Gar was best at.

Ending the opponent at an extreme speed, such a stance means that Gar will take the lead in attacking, instead of waiting for the opponent to attack.

Both of them took their stances, and their movements were almost the same. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere became thicker.

Without probing, Roya took the lead in drawing his sword, and the wooden sword in his hand turned into a full moon, and the invisible slash was swung out suddenly, and Roya's figure disappeared on the spot. The next moment, Gar suddenly swung his sword and chopped to the right.

The fight between the two attracted a crowd of onlookers. Although no one could understand what was going on, it did not affect the fuss of the crowd.

The wooden swords of the two people collided, and a group of people shouted.

The wooden swords did collide. In fact, the better way to deal with Roya was to use light return, but using light return would likely cause the opponent to react and avoid the fatal slash.

Once the slash could not interrupt the opponent's attack, then he would be in danger.

Strangely enough, although Roya's speed could not keep up with his speed, his "eyes" were surprisingly good. From the many characteristics of Roya, he was the type who could not react physically, but his eyes could really keep up with Gar's rhythm.

The Sword God Style pursued a one-shot kill, and neither Roya nor Gar was very satisfied with the sword he swung.

Roya took the initiative, but was blocked by Gar.

For Gar, he only blocked Roya's slash, and he had not thought of a counterattack.

The light sword may not be able to kill the opponent, and the light return may not be fooled by the opponent, which suddenly became troublesome.

His mind was racing, and Gar quickly thought about how to deal with Roya. Gar used his right arm to push Roya's sword away, and the two of them put away their swords tacitly.

Since one sword cannot end the sword duel, then the second sword will do.

Both of them thought so.

Gar's right arm was bulging with blue veins, and the exposed blood vessels were clearly visible. The gray and white hair stood up, and the ferocious face lost the frivolity and arrogance of the past. If we say that Gar used to be as rude as a beast, the first impression he gave people was a muscle lump without a brain, which was infinitely equivalent to the level of Gilenu.

But when Gar got serious, people would find that the old man in front of them was actually not as wild as they imagined. Gar was the kind of guy who was rough but delicate. You can say that Gar didn't have much mind, but if you think that Gar didn't have any mind, this little old man would give you a hard hand at the critical moment.

Gar's movements did not stop at all. He took a small step to the right, then used his brute force to retract the wooden sword. After completing this action, he did not build up momentum and directly thrust out the long sword, which chopped towards Roya's right arm.

The slash was extremely fast, and the wooden sword easily split the air and rushed to Roya's position at an extremely exaggerated speed.

This was the light sword.

Gar had hidden a trick and put the killer move in the second move.

The wooden sword appeared silently and without any expectation on Roya's right side. The speed of the wooden sword was so fast that it was almost unbelievable. Even if Roya had to deal with this sword many times, he was still a little surprised by Gar's speed.

Time slowed down at this moment. Roya was not as fast as Gar, and he was still a little slow to retract the sword. If it was a normal game, Roya would have been able to deal with Gar's slash in a hurry.

Even if he could take this slash hard, it would have laid the foundation for failure later.

But now, Gar's slash slowed down in Roya's eyes. Although the speed was still very fast, Roya was able to react.

Roya did not hesitate. When Gar's right arm was raised to the highest point and the long sword was about to fall, he suddenly swung it out.

Roya's speed still couldn't break through the speed of light, and the Sword God Style still remained at the level of the Sword Emperor.

But relying on the moment, he was able to crush a guy like Gar who relied on speed to win, and he couldn't even raise his head.

Roya's slash caught up with Gar's slash. Under the old guy's incredible eyes, Gar's right arm hurt, and he couldn't swing the light sword anymore.

"Light return."

Successfully interrupted the opponent's slash, and the rest of the result was self-evident.

The slash that exceeded the speed of light came in front of Gar in an instant, and before Gar could react, his vision had already turned.

Gar's right arm trembled a little, he still held the wooden sword in his hand, and the surprise on his face directly showed his inner shock.

The noise and noise of the crowd mixed together, and everyone thought that the battle between Roya and Gar would be like the past, the two would stalemate for a while, and in the end, Roya would be slightly inferior and be knocked to the ground by Gar.

At this time, Gar would wipe the sweat off his face and say a few words of encouragement to Luo Ya in a relaxed manner.

Like there was no need to be discouraged, you still have a lot of time, you are still young, and so on. Finally, he patted Luo Ya's shoulder, pulled Luo Ya up, and scolded the people around him, asking if they could wait like the eldest brother.

They were all used to it.

But the current scene was different from before.
