Volume 2 + Chapter 68: I Won
Calm down, concentrate.
Xia Yi is meditating, adjusting her breath.
“Xia Yi Yi, what are you doing?”
Miu Miu curiously lies on the bed, looking at Xia Yi on the ground.
It’s already the next day.
Last night, after Xia Yi came back to the room, she didn’t say anything, just went to sleep, and started practicing the next day.
Seeing this situation, Miu Miu is really curious.
“I’m practicing,” Xia Yi replied.
“Practicing?” Miu Miu finds it incredible, “I’ve never seen this way of practicing!”
“Adjusting one’s breathing, stabilizing the mind, bringing one’s breath to the best state.”
“Why aren’t you reading comics today?”
“Comics? If I don’t get serious, I won’t be able to read comics anymore!”
Xia Yi suddenly became very excited, but then remembered she was practicing and suppressed her emotions again.
“What’s wrong with you?”
“I have to duel with Xia Lulu. If I win, nothing happens, but if I lose, I will be punished.”
“Xia Yi Yi did something bad, right?”
“Not at all, it’s all because of you. You wrote something wrong in the homework, causing Xia Lulu to find out it was ghostwritten by you…”
“I’m not taking the blame!” Miu Miu is very aggrieved, “Who made you starve my stomach, not let me sleep, keep writing homework, not allowing rest, under such high pressure, how could there not be mistakes, I’m not a machine!”
“This…”
Xia Yi couldn’t refute.
Miu Miu does have a point.
“Anyway, I can’t lose the duel, or my life is over!”
“Is it that serious?” Miu Miu is surprised, “Xia Yi, is your mother… very scary?”
“Yes, very scary,” Xia Yi’s expression is serious, “If I lose, I can’t read comics anymore, can’t eat snacks… even, might be forced to eat vegetables I don’t like.”
“…Huh?”
Miu Miu shows an expression of “Are you kidding me?”
“Isn’t that scary?” Xia Yi retorts.
“I don’t quite understand…”
“What if you were fed cauliflower?”
“No way, I would vomit, that’s too scary!”
“Now, do you understand? The consequences are that scary,” Xia Yi’s expression becomes very serious, “Therefore, I cannot lose, I must win.”
“Then… Xia Yi Yi, you have to work hard!” Miu Miu encourages.
…
In the afternoon, Xia Yi went to find Xia Lulu.
As agreed, Xia Lulu was already waiting for her at the martial arts field.
Today’s martial arts field is empty, it seems that Xia Lulu specially arranged it, not allowing others to watch.
She was already standing in the center of the martial arts field, waiting for Xia Yi’s arrival.
After the two silver dragon lolis’ gazes met, they both smiled at the same time.
They smile, probably each with their own meaning.
Xia Yi took the initiative to attack before Xia Lulu could speak, to overwhelm the opponent with momentum, which is very important.
“Xia Lulu, why don’t you dare to let others watch? You even asked me to come alone, not to bring Miu Miu,” Xia Yi taunted, “Could it be that you are afraid of losing to me, embarrassed, right?”
“I never considered that possibility,” Xia Lulu said indifferently.
“You don’t admit it verbally, but you are still very afraid of losing. It seems you really feel threatened by my identity.”
“Is that so?”
“As a Human Sword Saint for over a decade, the swordsmanship I’ve honed on the edge of life and death is undoubtedly valuable, while you’re just a magician!”
“Over a decade… that’s indeed impressive,” Xia Lulu said with a light laugh.
Xia Yi felt that she wasn’t really listening, but rather giving a perfunctory response.
“Hmph, let’s see the truth on the sword, come on.”
Xia Yi raised her hand, the Holy Sword Mark on the back of her hand shone brightly, and she called out the name of the Holy Hword loudly.
“Come out, Holy Sword—Gram!”
The Holy Sword that only a Sword Bearer can possess appeared in the little princess’s hand, emitting a spirited sword intent, the light rippling like waves, spreading around, brushing past Xia Lulu, lifting her silver hair.
“Xia Lulu, you agreed, this time it’s close combat to decide the winner, no magic allowed, no regrets.”
“Yes, I did say that.”
“Then don’t blame me for bullying you, I am a Sword Bearer, using the Holy Sword is natural! Facing a million people, I will use the Holy Sword; facing one person, I also use the Holy Sword. Show your weapon too!”
“I haven’t decided what weapon to use yet, axe, spear, club… oh, I got it!”
Xia Lulu also raised her hand, the weapon box next to the field shook, a sword flew out from it, and landed steadily in Xia Lulu’s hand.
“Since you claim to be a Sword Saint, then I will use a sword too, fighting you with swordsmanship, it might be interesting.”
“You… know swordsmanship?”
Xia Yi is a bit surprised.
She didn’t know this.
“Just a little, learned some before, not very good,” Xia Lulu replied.
If this is true…
Then Xia Lulu is just a magician, doesn’t really understand swordsmanship, the weapon is not anything powerful, not allowed to use magic, giving up her biggest advantage, pretending in an unfamiliar field, in front of a Sword Saint?
This is just asking for a beating!
However, to be safe, Xia Yi decided to propose a rule.
“Xia Lulu, let’s set a rule in advance to prevent someone from being stubborn and not admitting defeat after being beaten, if the weapon falls to the ground after being disarmed, then it’s a loss.”
“No problem,” Xia Lulu agreed without thinking.
“Then, let’s start,” Xia Yi said.
“Go ahead, Daughter.”
Xia Yi gripped the Holy Sword, not being polite, and went straight for the ultimate move.
Four Instantaneous Slashes!
She swung four slashes in a row, controlling her speed, almost hitting Xia Lulu at the same time.
How will Xia Lulu respond? Is her swordsmanship very powerful?
Such questions emerged in Xia Yi’s mind.
“Umm…”
Xia Lulu was hit by the Four Instantaneous Slashes, the sword she swung to defend missed, and she was almost thrown out, just relying on her thick skin.
This…
Xia Yi was stunned.
Isn’t this too weak?
It turns out that Xia Lulu really doesn’t understand swordsmanship at all, the sword swing just now had no technique, it was just an instinctive reaction under stress.
Even after the sword swing, she exposed flaws, which is a big taboo in swordsmanship.
Xia Lulu wasn’t being modest, she really didn’t understand swordsmanship.
Won.
Although Xia Yi knows it’s not good to celebrate too early, she really wants to say—
I declare, I Won!
