The merciless black Soul Armature obviously did not expect that the skinny body of Sven the Rogue Knight could actually withstand his full strength attack. No matter how he tried to sense it, he could only sense an Intermediate Level energy from his body. This meant that he was not the kind of person who deliberately refused to participate in the Rank-Determining Test but was really just an Intermediate Level warrior.
However, how could a mere Intermediate Level warrior be able to stand unscathed after taking a blow from him? And looking at his posture, it seemed like he was eager to continue. Could it be that these dragon knights from Gouve have learned some secret techniques to conceal their strength? The black Soul Armature was puzzled but he did not care what kind of secret he had. Let's fight first! So he continued to say, "Haha! You're still standing? Looks like your strength is not to be underestimated. I guess you didn't enjoy yourself in the arena earlier, right? Then let's continue! "
Having said that, he raised the black sword in his hand again and a faint green light was emitted from his body. That was the warrior's Chi Prowess Shield. On the surface, it looked like he was getting serious.
Undine, who had initially planned to stop this meaningless fight, temporarily gave up on that idea after seeing Baiyi's performance. The strength of this wandering swordsman was much stronger than she had expected. Now that she did not have to worry about being accidentally killed by her own Soul Armature, it would be better for her to defeat him completely. That way, it would be much easier for her to recruit him in the future.
As long as she could defeat this proud and arrogant dragon knight, she would come forward to comfort him gently and give him resources to further improve his strength. Then, she would sell her beauty to him. By then, he would be able to kill two birds with one stone. Wouldn't that be perfect? Undine, who was born in a merchant family, began to have such wishful thinking in her mind.
Unfortunately, her beautiful wish was destined to come to nothing. At that moment, Baiyi who was fighting with the black Soul Armature was no longer fighting head-on like before. Instead, he cleverly took advantage of the heavy armor of the black Soul Armature and nimbly dodged the attacks one after another while constantly looking for opportunities to counterattack.
However, the quality of the Soul Armature in front of him was just too high. The runes on his body that were enchanted with various agility acceleration spells made his movements slightly slower than Baiyi but it was only half a beat slower than Baiyi. After all, the militia armor that he was wearing did not have enough strength and thus, his speed was not fast enough. With such a small difference in speed, it was enough for Baiyi to dodge his attack. If he wanted to counterattack, he would have to wait for an opportunity.
Although Baiyi managed to dodge all of his opponent's powerful slashes, the opportunity that he had been waiting for did not appear. His opponent's combat experience was also very rich. He did not take advantage of his superior strength to leave any openings for his opponent to exploit. Instead, he executed his moves with ease, not giving Baiyi any openings to exploit. From time to time, he would even use a few tricks that had obvious flaws in his opponent's defense in an attempt to lure Baiyi into his trap. Of course, such tricks were useless against Baiyi who had the same combat experience as him.
For a moment, the ruins around the two of them were completely demolished by the black Soul Armature. Broken bricks, tiles, and all kinds of rubbish were scattered all over the place, falling all over the ground in an attempt to disrupt Baiyi's movements. However, it was obviously useless. With the strength of the two of them, they could almost ignore the slight environmental impact.
The longer the confrontation between the two of them continued, the better Undine's impression of Sven the Rogue Knight became in her mind. Even if he was forced into a somewhat embarrassing situation and was completely at a disadvantage, it was still very normal, wasn't it? In fact, it was already commendable for him to be able to hold on for so long in the face of a Legendary Level Swordsman!
Undine could see more of the advantages of the Rogue Knight. His extraordinary strength, indomitable will, abundant endurance, coupled with his rich combat experience and the Draconic Aura that could be used against wild beasts, he was simply the ideal candidate.
If she were to consider the mysterious temperament brought by the black cloak and the deep story behind him leaving his hometown to come to Isythre alone from the realm of Gouve … Undine had to admit that if she was still a little girl, perhaps she would really be fascinated by such a man. As for now … If the face under the cloak was handsome enough, his strength had a lot of room for improvement, and at the same time, he was also sincerely willing to serve the family, then it would not be completely unacceptable for her to have a relationship with him …
At that time, Baiyi, who was exhausted from running for his life, certainly did not know that the beautiful swordsman in the distance had already developed a little strange idea because of her curiosity towards him. At the moment, the two of them had been fighting for quite some time but the opening that they expected did not appear. The opponent's speed did not change at all either. After all, it was a Soul Armature so there was no problem with stamina.
For that reason, the black Soul Armature could completely accept the situation in front of him. Even if the opponent was as slippery as a loach that he could not catch no matter how hard he tried, he firmly believed that as long as the opponent was a human, he would definitely collapse because of the depletion of stamina. Even though the opponent seemed to be full of stamina after such a long time, he did not think that it was a Soul Armature at all.
The opponent's movements were agile and flexible and there was no trace of a Soul Armature practitioner nearby. Those Soul Armatures that had a super long range of movement would not only have this little bit of strength. Most importantly, why would a Soul Armature go to the arena for? Is there a hole in his brain? The black Soul Armature took the initiative to eliminate the suspicion on Baiyi and continued to patiently wait for the opponent's stamina to decrease. He even opened his mouth to disturb the opponent's thoughts, "You're a Dragon Knight, right? Where did your dragon go? Did you eat it? Otherwise, how could you be so full of stamina? "
Baiyi's heart skipped a beat. Huh? This guy seems to have some kind of misunderstanding towards me? He actually thinks that I'm a Taoist priest of the Quanzhen Sect? Then the next step will be easy …
Not only did the black Soul Armature's words not disturb Baiyi's actions, he even silently nodded his head at Baiyi's calmness. He did not expect that he would take the initiative to deliver a solution to his problem to him. Before this, Baiyi had been busy communicating with the Void about the solution. It was just that the group of people had been arguing with each other for a long time and they still could not come up with a solution that would not expose his identity and would not look too strange.
Now that the opponent had already arranged the identity of a Dragon Knight for him, he might as well go along with it. Suddenly, Sven the Rogue Knight turned into Sven the Dragon Knight. In the blink of an eye, he cast a few buff spells on himself. His speed was so fast that the black Soul Armature did not even see the runes on his body light up.
"What's going on …" Just as the black Soul Armature was about to say something, he suddenly felt that Baiyi's speed had suddenly increased. It was almost as if he had left a blurred afterimage in the air. In an instant, Baiyi had moved behind him and unceremoniously slashed his sword at his waist. The speed was so fast that the black Soul Armature did not even have the time to react. His waist was hit by a huge force and he was sent rolling far away until he hit a wall.
Not only was his opponent's speed faster than his eyes, even his strength had suddenly soared to the point where it was enough to break his Chi Prowess Shield! The black Soul Armature looked down at the shallow scratch that Baiyi had left on his waist in disbelief. In an incredulous tone, he asked, "What the hell did you do?"
Baiyi did not have the obligation to answer him. Instead, he picked up his sword again and rushed towards him. After being suppressed for so long, it's finally my turn to fight back, right?
Only Undine could vaguely see a few rays of magical light bursting out from Baiyi's body. She could roughly guess what kind of buff spell Baiyi had cast on himself. Because a Dragon Knight had to cooperate with a dragon in battle, they would more or less master some simple and shallow spells. It was not difficult to understand why Baiyi was able to cast spells.
What was really difficult to understand was that the speed at which he cast spells was way too fast! I can't see any runes at all and I can't even hear any chanting at all. How is this a shallow mastery of magic? Even a real sorcerer would not be able to cast spells that fast, right?
Why are you so proficient in it? How long have you been practicing magic? Or could it be that you're just a sorcerer Dragon Knight who has learned some martial arts? Undine really wanted to ask Baiyi that question. Isn't the effect of this spell a little too strong? Are the spells that you cast on yourself really those basic spells that can be released quickly? She could not help but doubt it.
Strictly speaking, it was true that Baiyi had only cast two basic buffs on himself, Enhanced Strength and Enhanced Agility. However, those two buffs had already been modified by the group of bored Voidwalkers to version 6.30. The effect was stronger, the incantation was faster and the duration was longer. Compared to the other two Level 5 buffs, the Brutal Force and the Wind Benediction, the only thing that was lacking was the sound and light effects.
For that reason, it was not surprising that the black Soul Armature was being beaten to a pulp.
But this guy is a little too tough, isn't he? Baiyi circled around the black guy and slashed at him for a while. Every time he slashed, he would first use the Broken Air Style that was invented by the Swordsman to break apart the opponent's Chi Shield before he would use the Broken Sword Style to slash at his body. However, even with the help of the high molecular vibration technique, he could only leave a shallow scratch on the opponent's body. The high-speed vibration of the Chi Prowess would be strangely absorbed the moment it came into contact with the inside of the armor. It was obvious that Baiyi had successfully slashed his opponent a few times in a row but the opponent was still unharmed. He just looked a little battered.
