Li Xin swung the wooden sword, and it felt great in his hand, the threads on the handle were meticulously polished, and the equipment used in daily training was also quite exquisite.

Moncalleta’s smelting technology had stood the test of time and was considered leading in the Dao Yuan Eastern Continent before the emergence of Hex-Tech. At that time, weapons from Hedan were luxury goods in Li Long.

“Come on, Simmons, let me see how much you’ve improved.”

“Brother Li, be careful, I haven’t been idle these six years!” Except for that problematic ability, Simmons still carried a bit of confidence in other aspects.

His eyes turned crimson, and he got serious from the start, swoosh… Simmons had already made his move, dragging the greatsword towards Li Xin. Simmons wasn’t like Rock; before reaching effective distance, he wouldn’t reveal any obvious inclinations. The entire set of moves was both offensive and defensive, the footwork seemed swift yet had its own rhythm, with reserve energy.

In the instant he started, Simmons surprisingly felt a sense of relief. Facing Li Xin, he could give his all, no longer caring about those illusory things, he wanted to become strong!

Swoosh…

Suddenly the greatsword slashed out. In everyone’s eyes, Simmons hadn’t entered the effective attack range, but this slash instantly reached Li Xin’s face. In just an instant, under Li Xin’s stimulus, Simmons entered a warrior’s dream state of extreme focused combat!

Bang…

A loud explosion, Li Xin’s wooden sword blocked the attack without moving an inch. Instead, Simmons was bounced back. The immense force not only didn’t stagnate Simmons, but it also aroused his fighting spirit. The greatsword’s series of slashes weren’t like cutting wood stumps in place. Simmons’ footwork and angles were excellent, the greatsword seemed to swing with full force, but his foot movements already positioned him optimally, striking the target with maximum attack power. In terms of spiritual ability, he pulled out all the stops; facing Li Xin, he didn’t need to hold back at all. Simmons was very aware that Li Xin had surpassed him greatly in the Holy Land.

Roar roar roar…

Sword energy swept across, ravaging the surroundings. No wonder Simmons wanted them to stand further back. This was a real fight. Simmons had obtained spiritual ability enhancement, although not at the luxury level of external spiritual energy, yet the sword aura of the greatsword was already overwhelming, with an air of sweeping the world. Simmons’ swordsmanship bore the grandeur of Canon Law School’s wide open moves and the intricate and mysterious maneuvers of the Simmons family’s tradition. The short stab between the continuous attacks was indeed hard to guard against. However, Li Xin’s footwork was equally excellent, always able to control the distance, defending so perfectly that it was suffocating, never giving Simmons the opportunity to unleash a full-force slash, usually intercepting at about 70% to 80% of his momentum.

When the wooden sword blocked Simmons’ greatsword, the two sides stuck together instantly. Just when it seemed to be a test of strength, Simmons suddenly pushed the sword body, his body spinning accordingly, and the greatsword spiraled towards Li Xin’s head. Li Xin rotated in response, clang clang…

The originally wide-open sword style suddenly turned into a close-combat assassin’s fight. Seeing Simmons gaining the upper hand, Saint’s Grace’s teammates clenched their fists cheering, after all, he was their beloved captain, even if they joked around usually, they all hoped the captain could win.

Snap~~~

Li Xin stepped in, blocking the very end of the greatsword with the wooden sword. If it were the exerting front end, the wooden sword might be directly broken, but at the very end, it’s just the beginning of the rotation. The greatsword is abruptly halted. Simmons sensed danger, but Li Xin’s punch had already arrived. Yet Simmons had predicted this, his shield accurately defending.

Boom…

Simmons’ face instantly lost a trace of concentration. He had defended, but not entirely, the terrifying force had already penetrated, whoosh~~~~

With a crash, Simmons flew out backward, and the steel shield forged by the Saint Grace Canon Law School surprisingly showed cracks.

Li Xin did not pursue, “Simmons, no progress at all, this makes me a bit disappointed.”

Simmons wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, chuckling, “Brother Li, kidding me? This was just a warm-up!”

Throwing away the shield in his hand, he gripped the greatsword with both hands, pointing diagonally at the sky, instantly merging his energy and spirit. In Simmons’ eyes, there was only one opponent left, everything else disappeared, swoosh…

Stomp stomp stomp stomp stomp stomp…

Simmons strode towards Li Xin, knowing that defense was useless against him; he had to attack, push forward relentlessly!

Kill~!

With a step and a booming sound, Simmons charged towards Li Xin like a cannonball, eyes radiating red light, capturing Li Xin’s movements, he must seize the opponent’s trajectory!

Extremely close, both were grasping each other’s attack, several shadows appeared in Simmons’ mind, and within a split second, they solidified, he didn’t move!

With spiritual ability imbued, the greatsword transformed into a beam of light slashing down, but in this critical moment, Li Xin’s figure instantly dropped to one side. It was already a bit late, his wooden sword swept over with a side-slide to delay and offset the force. At this moment, Simmons’ body suddenly showed a dazzling light, disappearing simultaneously. He had foreseen Li Xin’s prediction, appearing behind Li Xin a second later, the greatsword already slashing down.

Faced with the Secret Castle’s Avogadro, Simmons overcame his fear and delivered his fatal strike. Everyone’s hearts were in their throats; the flash prediction slash, a capability possessed by only those exceptional warriors favored by the gods. For those without flash ability, it’s a certain death, and Simmons had no intention of holding back, as if driven by madness in killing, Li Xin…

Li Xin’s body showed no flash, could it be he didn’t know how to flash???

Flash against flash, it must be used at the opponent’s initiating moment, or in advance. Otherwise, even if executed, it might result in being slain due to error, and Li Xin’s body had not flashed, which meant…

Clang~~~~

In everyone’s eyes, Li Xin blocked the lethal strike from behind, his body abruptly sprung up like a soaring swallow, a blade arc sweeping towards Simmons, who barely blocked with his greatsword!

Boom…

Simmons was blown back, and at this time Li Xin’s wooden sword once again emitted a crisp explosive sound advancing towards Simmons, who reflexively deflected, but Li Xin’s greatsword abruptly descended, switching from right to left hand, the greatsword thrust forward directly, both dodging each other’s attack, snapping back after leaning back, Simmons’ eyes widened, he was faster!

Without awakening the ability, Simmons trained his body desperately to make up for his shortcomings, just for this moment.

He threw a punch towards Li Xin, yet Li Xin, seemingly slower, had already moved, a twist leveraging Simmons’ punch strength, swinging past, followed by a knee strike.

Boom… Simmons flew out with a heavy sound, yet before he could react, Li Xin already arrived, a lightning kick came down from the air.

Simmons was immediately smashed to the ground, accompanied by a loud noise, the ground cracked. Simmons’ body bounced up, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and at the next moment, Simmons clenched his teeth, slammed the greatsword into the ground, spinning to release the force, lifted the greatsword charging at Li Xin again, his heart thundered!

Blood Burning, for the honor of the Knight!

Simmons charged at Li Xin with burning determination, speed maximized, clang clang clang~~~ boom!

With a heavy blow, Li Xin’s wooden sword finally shattered, countless fragments shot out like bullets toward the surroundings. Simmons didn’t defend; he knew any extra movement at this time would be fatal, staring intently at Li Xin’s actions, as the fragments pierced his body, erupting in a blood splatter, yet his eyes didn’t flicker.

Indeed, Li Xin had already launched an attack towards him, and Simmons was waiting for this moment, the greatsword slashed out lightning fast, an inch longer, an inch stronger, just this moment, but Li Xin seemed to enter a ghost state, his body lowering to narrowly dodge the greatsword, entering the danger zone, punching towards Simmons.

A flash of light appeared on Simmons’ chest, the Knight’s Honor Shield materialized out of nowhere, blocking Li Xin’s fatal punch. This is the function of the Divine Relic. Meanwhile, the swinging sword once again arched back, executing the close-in guillotine move!

If Li Xin continued to attack, he’d be blocked by the Honor Shield, Simmons might get injured or might not, but Li Xin’s head would be chopped off, and if Li Xin dodged, he’d inevitably get hurt. Such a full-force attack had reached its peak momentum, wanting to stop it was as difficult as taking a hit oneself.

However, at this moment, Li Xin pressed the attack downward, kicking out with his right foot, kicking away the greatsword, while his right hand pushed down, channeling force into the ground, flipping over to kick Simmons away, the next moment, he leapt into the air, once more crashing down. Simmons didn’t hesitate, immediately discarding the greatsword, fully supporting his Honor Shield.

Boom…

With this punch, Simmons didn’t retreat. Thud, his legs sunk directly into the ground.

The base fell silent, Simmons used Bounce Back, but it did not repel Li Xin’s assault.

Simmons’ Honor Shield vanished.
