"...Come on." Jiang Yan nodded and raised the wooden sword in his hand.
"Then, I'm on...!"
--five minutes later.
Jiang Yan was knocked to the ground again, and the wooden sword was released.
"Sorry, you didn't..." Nate watched Jiang Yan move his mouth and spit out a tooth.
It doesn't look like everything is fine.
"……I am really sorry."
Jiang Yan waved his hand and said with a depressed face: "It's okay... I'm fine."
Hank, who was sitting on the sidelines, sighed and whispered: "I don't know why, but I seem to be somewhat used to this situation."
"What tooth is this?" Ai Ruo scratched his right cheek.
Jessica, who was on the left side of them, said with a worried face: "This is the third one...Is Jiang Yan really okay?"
Ai'er, who was sitting on the far left, didn't speak. She just covered her mouth and twitched her eyes.
He fell to the ground six times in five minutes. In the month since he stepped up his training, Jiang Yan never fell to the ground until the bell rang.
Jiang Yan picked up the teeth on the ground and left the venue.

It has been more than a month since the Christmas break. A week after resuming training, Connor announced a new training plan:
In six months and half a year, the remaining trainees who have experienced the knockout rounds will be turned into substitute operators who can play.
Then go to "Internships".
——If this process were the previous three-year training plan, they should have at least one year to prepare.
The world of Terra is not peaceful—resources, technology, and cultural differences all cause friction in this world all the time. It is under such circumstances that companies like Black Steel International can exist so smoothly.
So naturally, the "internship environment" they are about to go to will not be very peaceful. Therefore, as trainees who are about to face various dangers, it is very necessary to master a technique that can protect themselves and their teammates.
Especially vanguards, guards and heavy-armed trainees need to learn how to use their weapons and fight.
In order to test their combat capabilities and learn from each other's progress, the seven teams gathered together for drills at the end of every day's training.
But I didn't expect that the weapon with the worst damage ratio in combat was Jiang Shao - Nate's level was too high, and Ai Luo's weapon length advantage allowed even Hank to use his shield to fight Jiang Shao.

Jiang Yan has been very depressed for the past month.
He was never lazy and took the initiative to practice more. In addition to ensuring that courses such as driving and tactics could complete the requirements, he spent all his time in combat classes.
Shooting performance improved significantly.
Fighting ability has improved significantly.
However, swordsmanship... The swordsmanship class was already sparsely staffed. After the elimination round, only Jiang Yan and Nate were left.
Franca, who is responsible for teaching, has a headache about this: the two people's skills are not at the same level at all, so how can she teach?
Jiang Yan, who was in charge of studying, had an even bigger headache: Nate's skills were not developed in a day or two, how should he catch up?
Nate, who was in charge of sparring, had the biggest headache: He had been allowed to stop practicing swordsmanship and focus on studying medicine. He came to sparring out of a desire to help others. Unexpectedly, he, a deputy guard and a chief medical officer, would turn Jiang into a sparring partner.
They were beaten so hard that they had no strength to fight back, and both of them looked embarrassed.
Franka has never taught students with such poor basic skills, and Nate has never been a professional sparring partner.
Jiang Yan simply said that he had never learned swordsmanship - he only signed up for the Guards Course. He did not expect that this subject was not friendly to novices at all.
Nate was honest, his sparring partners were never waterproof, and they always tried their best - so Jiang Shao was always bumped by the shoulder or even hit in the face by the hilt and guard of the sword. He had broken his teeth three times this month.
But he avoided the painful trip to the dentist.
When he finished training and was about to leave the next day - his missing teeth had popped out.
It was like changing teeth, and it happened very quickly. His mouth only lost air for two days.
——Maybe this is also the magic of this body? After Jiang Yan realized this problem, he considered using physical enhancement to improve his strength.
After all, these are extraordinary times and some extraordinary measures can be used.
He excitedly tried it - but it turned out that even the standard weapon couldn't adapt to his physical abilities, and the training sword would probably break directly.
So his body cheating plan declared bankruptcy.
But now that the situation is critical, how can we improve our combat capabilities? Jiang Yan is simply bald. In six months, he has no idea what effect he can achieve through training.
If we were on Earth... we might be able to train qualified soldiers in six months, but in this magical corner of Terra, the popularity of firearms is not high. And if you use firearms, you may not be able to defeat these "people"
"Outside" and the Master.
What's more, firearms other than pistols are strictly controlled by Rutland...
The only way to reliably improve combat effectiveness is to practice weapons, but how to do it? Training with cold weapons takes time, and body plug-ins cannot be used.
