Xu Bin was not willing to miss this opportunity. He kicked off his feet and stabbed Ding Kui's right arm with his sword like lightning.??
Ding Kui suddenly used two strange moves, which caused Xu Bin's body to freeze and slow down a bit. He then raised his long sword and deflected Xu Bin's sword, and then stretched out his legs to trip.
Xu Bin suddenly lost weight and leaned his center of gravity forward. He wanted to stand firm, but he was tripped by Ding Kui. He couldn't move his feet forward and fell to the ground.
He put his hands on the ground, twisted his waist and turned over. He did a somersault in the air and landed on his feet.
At this time, Ding Kui had already sheathed his sword and stood up. He raised his hand to Xu Bin and said, "I accept, I accept, my junior brother has learned my senior brother's unique skills."
"Hey, junior brother, you are so shocking. What were those two moves just now? I have never seen you use them before." Xu Bin was shocked.
"I just learned the swordsmanship passed down from my family." Ding Kui didn't hide it.
"I finally got to see the Ding family's 'Fixed Light Sword'. It's really good. This must be President Zeng's trump card." Wei Zan felt like he had discovered something.
"Well, just having great swordsmanship isn't enough." Zeng Qing hesitated, saying it would be a waste not to act.
In any case, today's exchange match between Black Earth City and Huling City was evenly matched, with the 20th place finisher from the previous session beating the 14th place finisher from the previous session. It's quite a good result to have such a result.
Both cities have gained something from this exchange, and it can be said that everyone is happy.
Returning to Black Earth City, Ding Kui went to "Yanhuang Magazine" to host the first anniversary celebration.
Nowadays, "Yanhuang Magazine" has grown a lot, branches in county towns have been built, and there are reporters in every city in Pingzhong County. The circulation of "Guan Yue" has increased to 5,000, and the supply is still in short supply.
"Yanhuang Magazine" is no longer the money-losing commodity it once was, and can bring Ding Kui an income of twenty or thirty gold coins every month.
In these days, the personal bodyguards of nobles and the bodyguards of officials had a monthly salary of 50 gold coins for the third level of combat power. The monthly salary for the fourth level of combat power was 100 gold coins. The monthly salary for the fifth level of combat power could not be measured in money.
The most expensive person around Ding Kui is the magician Qian You. One hundred gold coins per month is not enough for him to spend on training. The other guards only get fifty gold coins. The old money man is almost serving him for free.
With the output of "Guan Yue" doubled, and with the annual salary, Ding Kui could become self-sufficient.
But what Ding Kui needs to consider now is not money. The county competition will start in more than two months, and the cultivation of fighting spirit and magic is an important agenda for him.
The proficiency of hypnosis is pretty good, it can be cast in five minutes in a battle situation, and by October it will take close to three minutes.
The newly acquired addition technique progresses very quickly. It takes one minute to prepare on the spot and two minutes to cast in combat mode. This is related to the fact that it is more convenient to practice the addition technique. As long as no one is paying attention, Ding Kui will throw an addition technique to himself.
; After passing some wild cats and dogs, he will also throw a few spells.
With another half month of fighting spirit cultivation, Ding Kui will be able to open the third meridian. This may be a small hurdle for others, but it is not a problem for him. It will happen naturally.
Because of the exchange competition in July, Ding Kui and his trainee knights' second phase of training was extended for one month and ended at the end of June. July was the rest time for Ding Kui and his group of students, but Zeng Qing arranged for Ding Kui to return to the guild to practice fighting spirit.
, but you can go home at night.
Increasing the time for practicing Dou Qi is very useful for Ding Kui, as it reduces the need to replenish his Dou Qi after exhausting it. Ding Kui has more physical strength to practice Dou Qi skills every day, and the speed of his Dou Qi cultivation is accelerated a lot.
By the end of July and the beginning of August, Ding Kui's fighting energy in his second meridian had been fully developed.
At noon that day, Ding Kui summoned up the fighting energy of two meridians and broke through the connection between the second and third meridians in one fell swoop. He finally opened up the third meridians and entered the later stage of trainee knight.
The third meridian is the meridian from the head to the toes, called the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian, which runs from the Yingxiang point on the wing of the nose downward to the Yinbai point on the big toe.
After the flowing fighting energy nourishes this meridian for about half a month, Ding Kui can use the "Thousand Hammers and Hundreds of Refinements" to widen this meridian.
In the later stage, the fighting spirit of the trainee knight can flow to the meridians of the feet, which means that the speed of movement increases. With Ding Kui's long-term training of footwork, his speed is no longer inferior to that of any trainee knight. If he casts a spell on himself again, Ding Kui will
Kui's speed can rival that of the early Blade Knight.
With Ding Kui's current level of fighting spirit, he could fill the entire knight's sword with crimson fighting spirit, but it would not last long. The fighting spirit that entered the sword continued to dissipate, causing great consumption.
There is only more than a month left before the start of the county competition. During this period, what Ding Kui can do is to stabilize the training of the late trainee knight, expand the third meridian to the limit, and practice battles to adapt to the increased speed.
Zeng Qing learned that Ding Kui had entered the later stage of trainee knights, and felt confident that he would secure a place to participate in the state competition, so he approved Ding Kui to go home and arrange special training.
Whatever the Knights Guild can teach, the Protectorate's personal guards can also teach. Anyway, Ding Kui's name has been registered in Black Earth City. Zeng Qing himself will always be Ding Kui's teacher. Ding Kui will train wherever he falls in love.
, President Zeng still has this right.
The Ding family in Black Earth City was emptied out again, and everyone returned to Xiaxi Town.
Ruan Xingzhu tried hard to persuade Ding Kui to find someone to teach her how to ride a horse, and even threatened her with "delicious food" because Ding Kui didn't want her to ride a horse because he was worried that it would cause harm to her.
Ding Kui's first loyal servant became Ruan Xingzhu's equestrian instructor. Ding Cai's sword skills have gradually failed to keep up with Ding Kui's progress, but the cavalry captain of the regular army taught a girl who was about to turn thirteen to ride a horse.
Quite competent.
As expected, none of the seeded players from each city participated in the second round of the exchange competition, and the spies scattered in various cities returned empty-handed. Although this result is the same every time, no one is willing to give up even a one in 10,000 possibility.
.
Zhong Wei and the other two sparring partners suppressed their fighting spirit cultivation, controlled the strength of the fighting blade knight in the early stage, and conducted battle training with Ding Kui on the flat ground.
This simulation is not limited to the eight main competitors, but various types of possible opponents.
In the early stages, the Fighting Blade Knight can put enough pressure on Ding Kui without being unable to withstand it. This kind of intense training is conducive to stimulating Ding Kui's potential.
When training with his bodyguards, Ding Kui did not dare to cast spells on himself. These people were familiar with him and could easily be exposed. Hypnosis was even less useful. The three late-stage shield-breaking knights were like mini-bosses, not with him.
coverage of strength.
Ding Kui could only rely on his late apprenticeship as a knight and his masterful swordsmanship skills to fight head-on. His previously proud physical fitness was basically ignored in front of Zhong Wei and the others.
