Fantasy: Life Simulation As A Sword - Chapter 29

Chapter 29 Holy Cross Sword

“Hmph!” Grott snorted coldly. “You’re just putting on an act. I’ll let you see the insurmountable gap between you and us!”

Shua!

A cold light flashed.

Grott pulled out his sword from his waist.

His entire body leaned forward as his left leg slightly bent. His right leg stomped backward, using his whole body to exert a large amount of force.

Bang! Bang!

The stone arena under Grott’s feet exploded with a huge explosion.

Soon after, Grott dashed forward, his sword aimed at Arthur’s chest!

Grott’s speed made many energy level two users slightly narrow their eyes. If they were his opponent, it would be difficult for them to block this move!

At the same time, Arthur pulled Lu Yu out. The sword trembled slightly as he held it in front of him. Without much effort, Arthur dodged Grott’s attack.

Grott’s killing move had actually missed!

Jynx’s eyes lit up at the sight of this!

She wanted to clap her hands but changed her mind, not wanting to disturb Arthur. On the other hand, Catherine glanced at him coldly and said, “This country bumpkin’s reaction is pretty fast, but he’s no match for Grott.”

As soon as Catherine finished speaking, Grott and Arthur quickly passed by each other. Grott looked at Jynx and gritted his teeth. He glared at Arthur and said, “I wanted to play with you slowly, but I’m not in the mood

now.”

After saying that, Grott’s body seemed to have undergone strange changes! All the joints in his body were cracking. Grott held his sword like a knight as his entire aura changed. Swoosh! Swoosh!

In the air, Grott drew a cross-shaped sword light. The terrifying speed was too much for the audience’s eyes!

“Holy Cross Sword!”

“It’s actually that intermediate knight martial technique!” The nobles below the stage shouted in surprise.

“This is one of the most difficult martial techniques to master!”

“Rumors said that in the previous batch, there was a second-level student who mastered this technique. He only used one minute to kill fourteen energy level two bandits!”

“Holy Cross Sword is extremely fast; it’s impossible to defend against it. Without the protection of a powerful martial technique, a transcendent at the same level wouldn’t be able to last even a minute!”

Some students of the academy who were spectating immediately recognized the source of Grott’s martial arts technique.

They felt that if Arthur didn’t surrender, he would die soon.

Below the stage, Jynx’s heart almost stopped beating when she saw Grott’s powerful attack. As a student from the academy, she knew very well that someone who mastered this technique would have a great advantage when facing people of the same level!

She only hoped that Arthur would survive. Claiming victory in front of this attack would simply be a dream!

“Wait!”

However, as time passed, all the nobles were surprised that Arthur was able to survive the Holy Cross Sword attack!

No matter how fast Grott attacked, Arthur could always block at the right time!

Arthur wasn’t using any martial arts, but he perfectly suppressed Grott’s techniques!

The nobles watching the battle widened their eyes when they saw the situation. To them, this was simply unheard of.

What sort of ability did Arthur have?

They all gasped.

“Phew!” Jynx heaved a sigh of relief. Arthur was much stronger than she had imagined. Moreover, it amazed her that he was on par with a same-level transcendent who had practiced knight martial arts.

However, not long after she heaved a sigh of relief, her expression changed drastically!

Standing by the side, Ferguson took out his staff and chanted an obscure spell.

“This is…”

“This is an intermediate magic spell!” Jynx felt chills run down her spine!

If it took this long for an energy level two mage to chant, then it was definitely an intermediate spell. It seems Ferguson wanted to use this spell to finish Arthur off!

“Oh my god!”

“It seems it wasn’t only Grott who improved. Ferguson has also learned intermediate magic!”

“They really are geniuses!”

“I can feel the terrifying aura of the spell!”

“Arthur is too reckless. If he had only challenged one person, he might’ve won.”

“He has no chance of winning against two people!”

“If he wants to block Grott’s attack, he’ll be killed by Ferguson’s intermediate spell. If he wants to interrupt Ferguson’s incantation, he’ll be slashed down by Holy Cross Sword!”

“This countryside transcendent will have to pay the price for his arrogance!”

Some of the more knowledgeable nobles already saw the result of this fight. They thought Arthur was dead for sure!

Jynx furrowed her brows and cheered for Arthur in her heart. “Arthur, quickly destroy Ferguson’s chanting!”

Meanwhile, in the ring, Arthur was aware of the danger approaching him. His eyes lit up as he saw Ferguson chanting a spell from the corner of his eyes.

Lu Yu’s strength suddenly increased!

His main goal was no longer to suppress Grott’s onslaughts. Instead, he needed to finish Grott directly and stop Ferguson as soon as possible.

But as Arthur increased his strength, Grott suddenly revealed a meaningful smile!

Clang!

The swords in their hands collided again, the sound of metal clashing ringing out. After the clash, the color of Grott’s blade changed!

A golden light bloomed from it!

“This is a high-grade magic tool!” The nobles below the stage shouted!

“Arthur wanted to defeat Grott with his outstanding strength, but he didn’t expect Grott’s high-grade weapon to revive!”

“A high-grade magic tool already has its own consciousness. Due to this, it will help strengthen Grott’s martial arts!”

“So Grott had planned this out. It seems he doesn’t need Ferguson to win this.”

“Grott’s weapon will enhance the Holy Cross Sword attack. No matter how strong Arthur is, he won’t be able to escape from Grott.”

“No!” Jynx’s heart dropped down to her throat as she stood below the stage!

“Arthur, quickly surrender!”

She was extremely anxious, but there was nothing she could do!

She only wanted Arthur to survive.

Arthur couldn’t get rid of Grott, and he also couldn’t interrupt Ferguson.

As a mage, she knew what kind of spell Ferguson would release once he finished chanting.
