Chapter 1582: The More Tools, the Better

Chapter 293 The More Tools, the Better

The shield-sword team of five were trainees from the clubhouse and had been training here for over a month.

They weren’t very strong, but their basic fighting skills were still there.

However, they didn’t expect that they would be put down in just ten seconds, and the other side didn’t even break a sweat.

Roland said to Qi Shaoqiu, “It’s no good, the miaodao can’t break the defense.”

As he said this, he waved his miaodao twice more, looking disappointed.

“Of course it can’t break the defense.” Qi Shaoqiu shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, “The current rule is that you can’t use hammer-type weapons, and then all sharp weapons can’t be sharpened and can’t be thrust. It’d be odd if you can break defenses. If weapons could be sharpened, then armored combat would be a bloodbath. With the material crafting and edging technology of today’s weapons, it wouldn’t be hard for someone with higher strength and skill to split a helmet with a single blow.”

“Damn, then how are we supposed to fight—just take out the enemy with grappling techniques like I just did?”

“It’s fine, we’ll change to shields and swords when the time comes,” Qi Shaoqiu explained. “Now it’s just so you can get a feel for things.”

“Shield and longsword?” Raffel took off his helmet as well. He said simply, “That would be my world.”

As a shield Warrior, he was quite good at using shields and longswords.

And at this moment, Lin Zhaotong pulled Qi Shaoqiu to the side and asked in surprise, “Brother, where did you get these fierce men from?”

Lin ZHaoong had participated in two full-armor combat competitions, and usually practiced with his members from time to time, so it could be said that he was quite experienced in fighting.

But what he had just seen… The five people Qi Shaoqiu had dragged in had incredibly fast reflexes, and as soon as the battle began, they, with their miaodaos in hand, kept enough distance and used their weapon advantage to slash wildly at the other side. Although they didn’t break the other side’s defenses, they knocked the other side wide open. Even with their shields, the other side was confused and disoriented.

The five then almost charged up in unison, throwing away the weapons they had and slamming the opposing shield-sword team of five right down or pinning them to the ground.

From start to finish, it was no more than twenty seconds.

It could easily be described as a crushing victory.

Their combat abilities were simply not on the same level.

Qi Shaoqiu looked at Lin Zhaotong’s surprised face and smiled proudly. “I taught them. How about it? Impressive, right?”

“They’re indeed a bit impressive.” Lin Zhaotong nodded vigorously. “So you ran back home for over a year just to cultivate some talented people, I admire that. In the future, you can take the seat of the president of the full-armor combat club.”

Qi Shaoqiu felt a bit guilty. “Ah, we’ll talk about this later, let’s talk about it later.”

At this moment, trying out the feeling of moving in armor on the training field, Li Lin moved his body and said to Schuck, who was not far away, “Want to spar in full armor mode?”

“Sure,” Schuck replied.

Roland and the others had already gotten used to the fact that Li Lin enjoyed competing with Schuck, and often pestered Schuck to spar when he practiced at the saber arts club. Of course, he lost more than he won, but he never got discouraged.

As soon as the people from the clubhouse saw that there was a solo battle, they immediately became interested as well, and the shield-sword team of five immediately stepped to the side and also took off their helmets to watch the show.

Lin Zhaotong, who was chatting with Qi Shaoqiu, also looked over.

In the center of the field, two men in full-body armor stepped sideways squarely at the same time, their bodies lowered slightly, and both of them lightly mounted their miaodaos on their shoulders.

It looked rather like a Japanese samurai duel.

In reality… miaodao arts were certainly of the same origin as the Japanese swordsmanship, and most importantly, the miaodao was created to counter Japanese swordsmanship.

The two of them were silent for a moment, and then Li Lin moved first, launching a forward-step vertical slash.

Schuck immediately stepped back and slashed diagonally.

But Li Lin’s action was a feint, and he withdrew his sword midway, took half a step back, and waited for the instant Schuk’s sword slashed down. Then, he took a step forward again, and at the same time, with the right leg in front as the center, he turned to the right in a circle. The miaodao in his hand also simultaneously used the momentum of the turn and horizontally slashed forcefully to the right.

This was the most powerful of all the miaodao stances, and its range of attack was also the largest.

Under normal circumstances, as Li Lin was turning, Schuck could’ve avoided Li Lin’s move in time by taking two steps back.

But the problem was that now Schuck was wearing full-body armor and it was extremely difficult for him to move, and he only stepped back when Li Lin’s miaodao was about to hit him.

In a hasty decision, he could only hold the blade down vertically, while jamming it on the floor, blocking his right side.

The miaodao that had rotational force added to it struck Schuck’s blade heavily, and after a clang, the miaodao in Schuck’s hand was knocked away.

He took the opportunity to take a step back, his voice coming through his helmet: “I lost.”

The miaodao flew several meters away, hitting the wall and rebounding to the floor with a clanging sound.

Li Lin took off his helmet, not at all happy about winning the fight. He frowned and said, “Schuck, why was your reaction so slow?”

“I can’t help it, the full-body armor is too heavy. I’m not used to it.”

Schuck also wore heavy armor in the game, but because of the Body of Light, he couldn’t feel the weight of the armor at all.

Although Li Lin’s profession was Barbarian, he could unleash one hundred and twenty percent of his combat power without wearing armor.

But occasionally, he still had to wear armor when it was needed.

For example, when the opponent had a bow and arrow formation, not wearing armor would be courting death—it would be strange not to be shot into a hornet’s nest.

This was why he was also used to wearing armor.

The members of F6 surrounded them, and Brazil nodded and said, “Reaction speed does feel a lot slower when wearing armor.”

Raffel said with a smile, “It’s okay, I’m used to it. Who wants to practice with me later?”

They hissed, expressing their displeasure at Raffel’s shameless act.

Only someone who was ill would go head to head with a shield Warrior in reality while wearing heavy armor.

On the other side, both Lin Zhaotong and the shield-sword team of five were somewhat stunned.

Although Li Lin and Schuck’s fight lasted less than ten seconds, the skill and power that was displayed in it made them feel ashamed.

In contrast, they felt like they were just dancing around with their shields and unsharpened long swords… kind of like when they were in elementary school and got excited after watching a martial arts movie, picking up a stick and making swishing noises, while running around and swinging it.

Li Zhaotong was stunned for a while, then pressed his hands against Qi Shaoqiu’s shoulders and said quite seriously, “You guys must take the field… It’d be best to participate in both individual and team battles.”

“Forget it, they have things to do, they can only take part in the team battles—they won’t be here for long.”

Lin Zhaotong said rather frustratedly, “How can this be… What’s more important than gaining honor?”

“Many things.” Qi Shaoqi slapped away the hands pressed on his shoulders unhesitatingly. “Anyway, it’s decided, so you can help out more.”

“Okay.” Lin Zhaotong’s eyes shone briefly. “I’ll pull two more teams of new trainees to give them more practice. How about playing a few more matches and then letting them rest for a day?”

Qi Shaoqiu laughed. “That’s how it should be.”

The shield-sword team of five felt a bit of a chill creep down their spines.
