The first one to come up was Situ Mansion's striker Sige Koucuo, who was a small monk.
The two of them were standing thousands of feet away, and there was no chance to attack immediately. As they approached each other, there were countless possibilities, countless tactical combinations, and there was no longer a sword ceremony of two swords meeting. Everything was the same as in actual combat.
This is a battle that truly tests your abilities.
Kou Cuo was full of confidence. Among them, Sige, who was chosen as the vanguard, was not experienced in many battles. At this point, he was confident that his experience was much richer than that of Sikong Mansion sword cultivator.
With one vertical movement, the next moment he was already 400 feet away from his opponent; with another vertical movement, he retreated 600 feet away, and then approached again, already 350 feet away from his opponent, but still without drawing his sword.
Continue to let go...
This set of vertical jumps is called step play, which is to test the opponent's reaction and sword range through constant distance adjustment to find the rhythm point of the sword. For swordsmen, the sense of distance is a very important element of combat.
, masters who are truly proficient in this art can often mobilize the emotions of their opponents just by performing tricks, which not only tests the monk's escape skills, but is also a kind of psychological warfare.
The sword cultivators of Situ Mansion are all very good at this trick, especially him.
If both of them move, it will be a very exciting chasing game to see who can find the opportunity to attack first while entangled with each other.
In this kind of defined-area battle, the core of the step play is to occupy the center point, so that the opponent has to exhaust himself in the rapid movement and expose his flaws in the passivity.
Very clever swordsmanship and fighting skills.
But Hou Zi's reaction was very slow. He did not use the same escape technique to follow, but slowly approached forward unhurriedly and unswervingly!
There are only two possibilities for doing this, either you are not good at footwork to seize opportunities, or you have absolute confidence in your flying sword and believe that your flying sword is faster and stronger than your opponent.
Judging from his performance in the previous two battles, it was obviously not the former, so Kou Cuo had to carefully control the distance and not accidentally fall into the opponent's sword range.
Ten breaths into the battle, the two of them hadn't even fired a single sword, which was quite strange.
Seeing Kou Cuo still moving around looking for opportunities, Fang Zhonghui frowned.
"No, Junior Brother Kou is psychologically suppressed!"
Another striker beside him, Qiang Yongxin, nodded, "The opponent is getting closer and closer to the center point. Why is Lao Kou still jumping around like a monkey? If he doesn't attack, he will lose his position."
They saw it very accurately, and Kou Cuo on the court also realized this problem; it had nothing to do with his strength, only his state of mind, and his opponent made his moves into a laughing stock just by slowing down.
He made a decisive decision, no longer hesitating, and once again reached a distance of three hundred feet, the flying sword suddenly shot out. This kind of attack at the edge of the sword range could easily lose its target, but it was still a beginning after all.
Hou Ting moved, followed closely behind Kou Cuo, and shot the flying sword at the opponent; at the same time, his body did not retreat or move on the spot, but unexpectedly rushed forward, facing the opponent's flying sword.
Everyone watched nervously. No matter what his true abilities were, this Sikong Mansion's sword-wielding aide was very good at playing dangerous tricks. He could only move without moving, and his single move would push the battle into a situation where the winner could be decided in an instant.
Kou Cuo is worthy of being the top swordsman in the Tongtian Realm of Situ Mansion. His rich combat experience has given him a strong psychological tolerance for all kinds of abnormalities. He is completely free of the influence of futile moves in the early stage of the battle, and his body flashes in a flash.
, the person has disappeared in place.
With the sword attached, his first strike was not a winning strike, but an attempt to get closer!
What is even more incredible is that at the same time that Kou Cuo followed the sword, Hou Zi also followed the sword, and both of them disappeared, as if they had a tacit understanding and a tacit understanding.
The onlookers became even more nervous, because the focus that determines the direction of the battle lies in the choice of where the two men appear with their swords attached. If they both choose the safest far point to appear, then the result will be a transposition, and the two people will exchange positions.
Back to the starting point.
But if one of the two doesn't follow the rules, this is likely to be a close contact battle!
The competition is who is bolder and who is more wild!
This kind of battle is so exciting, the victory or defeat can be decided in an instant! In the wide-open eyes of everyone, the two of them showed signs at the same time...
Kou Cuo moved forward two hundred feet, which was quite a risky distance to move forward. If Hou Zi had remained in place, he would have appeared within a hundred feet behind Hou Zi. This was the inescapable distance for the flying swords of both sides.
, the next step is a short flying sword attack, whoever flies the sword faster wins, and Kou Cuo is a famous fast swordsman in Situ's house.
He succeeded and failed.
Because Hou Tsuta's accompanying sword does not move forward, but backward!
This is an advanced application of the Shape-Sword Attachment. Normally, the monks in the Shape-Sword Sword Attachment will appear at any point on the line connecting the human and the flying sword, but Hou Zi has practiced moving his body towards the line.
Extend in the opposite direction.
The result is that they are indeed very close. When they enter the inescapable zone of their opponent's flying sword, they are too close, not a hundred feet, but within twenty feet!
Such a fatal distance will immediately test another key tactical indicator of sword cultivators. Who has a shorter freezing time?
The answer is self-evident, of course, which of the two is more intentional about the person who is more confident in his freezing time.
Hou Zi's movements were smooth and flowing, his body swayed, he waved the long sword in his hand, and lightly tapped Kou Cuo on the shoulder who had just drawn the long sword...
The victory has been decided!
The onlookers burst into loud cheers, and at this moment, the so-called barriers between the three palaces disappeared in a thrilling and exciting sword fight.
Kou Cuo licked his lips, a little regretful, but had nothing to say, "I lost. Junior Brother Hou's reverse transformation of his hand was really beyond my expectation, but what I want to know is, how did you do it?"
Did you expect that I would change places? How could you tell where I would appear?"
Hou Zi smiled, "Senior brother, the first sword was obviously a test, and I did not use my full strength; I rushed forward to force you to change positions... As for distance control, in fact, as long as senior brother calculates carefully, the positions that can appear are limited, and the error
It won’t be more than fifty feet…”
Kou Cuo was still not satisfied, "How do you know that I will definitely use Displacement? What if I don't move?"
Hou Zi shrugged, "Then just hit us! You won't retreat in front of everyone, right? This is the Situ Mansion, and you are the frontman of the Situ Mansion. Besides moving forward, do you have any other choice?"
Kou Cuo was convinced, "Good swordsmanship! Good judgment! Good character! Although I have not yet mastered most of my skills, I am convinced!"
As a profession of swordsman, if the fighting speed is too fast, it will be difficult to use all your abilities before ending the battle. Therefore, explosive power is very important. In this sense, he has no dissatisfaction.
