The moment Zadeh said this, it immediately caused a commotion among the students present.
As an experienced instructor in the academy, there was no need to doubt Zadeh's abilities. Tens of years of cultivation had long tempered his attributes, specialties, and Killing techniques to the pinnacle of a first transition Knight.
Unless it was a first transition Elder from a large clan, most first transition Knights would not be a match for him.
In the entire academy, only Conferred Knights like the Headmaster and Huang Lin would be able to suppress an experienced instructor at Zadeh's level.
And now, such a powerful Knight was going to challenge Fang Xingjian.
Especially the content of the challenge. Within a circle of a few meters, the two of them would use their spears to stab each other. Whoever died or fled would be considered the loser.
Such rules were equivalent to a pure close combat fight, causing Fang Xingjian to lose his advantage in terms of movement speed and long-range sword Qis.
On the contrary, Zadeh had trained in the longspear for tens of years. The two-meter long spear in his hands would hit wherever he pointed. With 92 points of strength, he was able to crush Fang Xingjian in terms of attributes. It could be said that he had the upper hand in a close combat fight like this.
Therefore, the people in the surroundings were very shocked, followed by agitation and excitement. A close combat fight between two top notch Knights, with the slightest carelessness, could result in the death of the other party. How exciting was this?
If it was in the modern world, such an action would definitely be reported.
But in the Knight Academy, in this world of iron and blood, Knights would only feel satisfied and exhilarated. This was what real combat training was.
Otherwise, why would they be Knights if they were afraid of death?
But at this moment, Lilia frowned and said, "Old man, what do you mean by this? My teacher is a Windstorm Sword Hero. You want him to fight in close combat with you in the same circle? You might as well ask my teacher to tie his hands and feet to fight with you. "
After hearing this, Zadeh's expression remained calm and composed. He turned his spear and continued, "The reason why I'm here is to have an exchange of spear arts with Fang Xingjian. "If it's a chase and a fight, what's the point? I don't play such tricks. Fang Xingjian, if you want to exchange pointers, then let's stab each other with our spears in this circle. "Of course, if you're afraid of death, you can also admit defeat now."
Although Zadeh had a fiery temper, he wasn't an idiot. His movement speed was not as fast as Fang Xingjian's Windstorm Sword Hero. Even if he had secret techniques that allowed him to instantly unleash a sneak attack and a long-range attack, he did not have full confidence that he would be able to defeat Fang Xingjian in the process of pursuing him.
If he were to fight with Fang Xingjian, it would be too embarrassing if the latter relied on his superior movement speed to keep him from reaching the edge, resulting in a draw.
Seeing how calm and composed he was, Lilia was so infuriated that she gritted her teeth. However, she could not think of any rebuttal.
At this moment, Fang Xingjian slowly walked out from the Confinement Chamber. He stepped into the circle under Zadeh's feet and exerted force with his hand. His Ether Force Field had already snatched a longsword from a student at the side.
"Of course there's no problem in exchanging pointers. But compared to spears, I still prefer swords. Today, I'll use swords as spears and spar with Teacher Zadeh."
"Using swords as spears?" Zadeh's eyes narrowed, as if there were blades flashing within them.
As the saying goes, an inch longer, an inch stronger. In such a narrow circle, a two-meter long longspear would basically be able to pierce wherever it wanted to. Now, Fang Xingjian actually wanted to use a steel sword that was slightly over one meter long to spar with Zadeh. This was equivalent to giving Zadeh even more advantages. It could be said that it was extremely thrilling.
"Very good. Fang Xingjian, you're really good. In such a small circle, you're neither running nor escaping. Instead, you're using a steel sword to fight against my longspear. You're very courageous. As long as you don't die, your achievements in the future will definitely be greater than what I've imagined.
"The cultivation of us Knights is like the fierce thrusting of a great spear. We have to focus on advancing forward with an indomitable will. Once we've set our minds on something, even ten thousand horses won't be able to pull it back.
"Since you're not afraid of death, I'm even less afraid of stabbing you to death with my spear.
"If you're able to win this match from my hands, then I'll admit that I'm not a match for you, Fang Xingjian. In the future, no matter what you do in the academy, I won't stop you."
After saying that, Zadeh closed his eyes and his eyelids drooped. The killing intent from earlier had completely dissipated in an instant. This was the result of him accumulating all his killing intent and battle intent, waiting to erupt at the next moment.
It was like when a volcano was not erupting, it was extremely peaceful, and one could even go on a tour and live nearby. It was also like the calm before a storm, where not even a single wave could be seen on the water's surface.
But once an eruption occurred, regardless of whether it was a volcano or a storm, it would be world-shaking, destroying everything within its range.
However, at the same moment when Zadeh closed his eyes, Ferdinand's eyes flickered and he said, "Teacher Zadeh, you came here directly and fought as you wish. If you lose, it means that you won't come looking for trouble anymore. Isn't this a little too unfair?"
Zadeh coldly replied, "Then what do you want?"
Ferdinand smiled and said, "Although Xingjian doesn't charge a fee for teaching us martial techniques, we still need everyone to hand over a sword arts secret manual. Teacher Zadeh is an experienced instructor in the academy, a top notch Knight. His status is not comparable to us students … "
Ferdinand had clearly placed his bets on the possibility of Fang Xingjian winning. Not only did he know that Fang Xingjian's sword arts had already reached the realm of Force Interlinked, but during the period of time when he was guiding Fang Xingjian in martial techniques, he had also been able to sense the disposition that Fang Xingjian was exuding from within.
Right now, he was stepping up to fight for benefits for Fang Xingjian. Clearly, he and his clan had already decided to stand completely on Fang Xingjian's side.
Zadeh said impatiently, "I've never collected sword arts secret manuals, and I don't have such things in my hands. How about this, if I lose, I'll give you an Empire's Divine Weapon. "
Ferdinand still wanted to speak up to fight for more benefits, but Fang Xingjian shook his head and said, "Alright, Ferdinand. There's no need to be calculative about these small gains and losses. Teacher Zadeh, you can make your move."
Zadeh's expression immediately turned solemn. His eyes were clearly closed, and there was not a hint of killing intent emanating from him. However, he gave the surrounding people an incomparably heavy feeling, just like the few seconds before the start of a battle between two armies.
In the next moment, it was as if lightning had struck down from the sky. The longspear in Zadeh's hand brought along a beam of cold light, piercing towards Fang Xingjian like a rocket.
As the spear pierced out, it immediately created a sonic boom. The spearhead of Zadeh's longspear drew out a white air current, and layers of Reduced Force Field enveloped it, pushing the longspear layer by layer like a rocket.
The distance between the two of them was not more than two meters, and the speed of this spear was extremely fast. Before anyone could react, the spearhead of Zadeh's spear was already less than an inch away from Fang Xingjian's chest.
If this spear were to pierce through, it would directly create a large hole in Fang Xingjian's body, churning his internal organs into mush. Whatever Reduced Force Field or Knight attire would not be able to block it.
