Just as everyone finished their practice and was about to leave, the sound of hurried hooves came from outside the training ground.
Margaret, who was about to get on the carriage, frowned slightly when she heard the sound of hooves.
A white horse carrying a black-robed youth rushed into the martial arts arena.
The man in black saw Margaret standing beside the carriage. He pulled the reins in his hand and the white horse turned around and rushed towards the carriage.
Barker shouted loudly. His bow was like a full moon, and seven arrows shot out like thunderclaps. These arrows were different from the ones he had demonstrated during the martial arts practice. Some were fast and some were slow. Some of them did not even shoot at the people on the horses.
"Eh?"
The man in black on the horse seemed to be shocked. He exerted strength in his hand and the white horse suddenly stopped.
With a clang, the man in black unsheathed his sword and knocked away a few arrows. He then pounced on Margaret like a hawk.
Two figures leaped out from both sides, like flowing water and a breeze, entangling the black-clothed man in the air.
The black-clothed man's body suddenly stopped in mid-air, and his long sword swept horizontally.
Feeling that they couldn't block it head-on, the two followed the sword's momentum and circled around the black-clothed man from the left and right, turning around and slashing.
"Turning Slash in the air?"
Daley looked at this scene in disbelief.
"Good!"
The black-clothed man who praised him spun his body and drew a circle with his sword that was emitting golden light.
With a clang, the three weapons collided, and the three of them flew in three different directions.
"Amazing indeed!"
The man in black laughed after landing on the ground.
"To be able to train a subordinate to such a standard, my trip here was not in vain!”
"The two of us were stupid and couldn't be trained, so we couldn't finish our apprenticeship. If the seniors were here, how could they allow you to be so arrogant?”
Rick, who was standing between the man in black and Margaret, said calmly.
"May I ask why you are here?"
The man in black stared at Margaret and bowed.
"York has no other requests, but I hope that Miss can enlighten me.”
Hearing this person's name, the warriors present couldn't help but be shocked.
York was the favorite student of Peter, the court teacher of the kingdom. He had traveled around the continent for the past two years and had never lost a battle. He was a famous genius on the continent. He was a straightforward person who liked martial arts. He often went to fight when he heard that there were masters. However, he was not easy to kill. He would stop fighting when he reached a certain point and did not hide anything. Therefore, he made many friends. Some warriors who were in the breakthrough period were even more eager for him to come and fight.
Daley, who was standing at the side, was secretly worried for Margaret.
Although Miss was as intelligent as the sea and had keen eyes, fighting was not just about eyesight. It also required stamina, strength, speed, and so on. How could Miss withstand York's attack with such a delicate body?
The sound of hooves rang out again. Hank, who was lying on a gray horse, also rushed in.
"York, you bastard! What did you promise me? You don't keep your word!"
"Hank."
York blushed when he heard Hank's scolding.
"This is my fault. After the competition, I will train with you. I won't leave until you advance to a Martial Warrior, but I will definitely not miss this battle.”
"Hank."
Finally understanding that it was her brother who caused trouble for her, Margaret glared at her brother and bowed to York.
"Mr. York, the rumors are all exaggerated. Margaret is not as strong as you think. How would she dare to give you advice? I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. Please think twice.”
"Hahahaha!"
York laughed.
"If the other warriors were unwilling to fight me, it would be fine, but…"
York pointed his longsword at Margaret with a thunderous sound.
"Mulan! How can I miss such an opportunity?"
Hearing York's words, Daley's head buzzed.
Mulan Hua was a mysterious warrior who had traveled the continent six years ago. She was covered in armor and used bows, spears, sabers, and swords. She had a sharp gaze and unique insights. Many warriors had received her guidance and were known to be invincible under the martial soul. She had never shown her face to others. It was only from her voice that she was known as a woman. At that time, the warriors respected her as their master, so she was named Mulan Hua. However, for some reason, he suddenly disappeared four years ago and was never seen again.
He didn't expect it to be Miss.
But thinking about it, it made sense. In this world, other than Miss, who else was worthy of being called Mulan Hua?
Hearing York say her name, Margaret knew that she could not avoid this battle. She could only stand up in front of the surrounding warriors.
"Mr. York, I've been busy with government affairs these few years, so I'm afraid my martial arts skills have not improved much.”
"Sure."
York waved his hand.
"Where are your armor and weapons? I know that you are proficient in all kinds of techniques, but your main focus is the sword. Today, I will ask you for guidance.”
"No need."
Margaret took a few steps forward and stood in front of Rick.
"My body is my sword."
"Good!"
York laughed loudly. His sword flashed with a dazzling golden light as he stabbed at his chest.
Margaret retreated and dodged the sword.
York shouted and stepped forward, turning from stabbing to slashing. Margaret turned around and flashed behind York.
York calmly stabbed with his backhand, the tip of his sword chasing after Margaret like a poisonous snake.
For a moment, a long sword that was shining with a bright golden light was chasing after Margaret like a crazy dragon.
"Sister!"
Hank shouted when he saw that York's sword had almost stabbed Margaret a few times.
"York, it's just a spar, don't be so ruthless!”
"Young Master, Miss is fine."
Rick comforted Hank when he saw his worry.
"Mr. York has no choice. Once the attack stops, Miss will immediately counterattack. The young miss seemed to be in danger, but in fact, victory was already in her grasp.”
"But, can sister hold on until then?”
Hank was still worried when he saw York's sword getting tighter and tighter, and his energy seemed to be endless.
"Mr. York took righteousness as fire. Although fire is strong, it will break when it is strong. This should be his last round of attacks.”
Eron said from the side.
At this moment, York let out a loud shout and rushed forward. He swung his sword several times and slashed at Margaret.
Margaret moved like the wind and turned around in the air. York's sword barely slashed past her, but it didn't touch her at all.
After slashing out a few times, York's sword momentum finally paused.
Margaret tilted her body slightly, and her gloves glowed with a thin golden light as she slapped at York.
York turned his wrist and did not defend himself. The tip of his sword changed direction and stabbed towards Margaret.
Margaret retreated, and the sword tip was already in front of her, unable to advance any further.
York's shoulder made a crisp sound. His hand seemed to have suddenly grown longer. The tip of his sword was still stabbing forward. It was like a gradually dimming fire that suddenly burst out with a tongue of flame.
"What skill is this? I've never even heard of it! If it were me, I would have been stabbed!"
Seeing this sword, Daley broke out in cold sweat.
As if she had already expected this attack, Margaret leaned back and her chest retreated by half a meter. The sword stopped in front of her by a hair's breadth and could no longer advance.
York lowered his wrist, and his sword changed from stabbing to chopping, slashing towards Margaret.
Margaret turned her body and dodged the sword. She used the strength of her waist to bounce up. Her entire arm was shining with dazzling golden light. Her fingertips were pinched into a cone shape and stabbed forward like a spear.
At this moment, York had already exhausted all of his moves, and it seemed like he could no longer attack.
"As expected of Miss!"
Daley couldn't help but exclaim in admiration when he saw how natural Margaret's moves were.
"Eh?"
Barker seemed to have seen something shocking.
Seeing Margaret switch from defense to offense, York took a step back.
Margaret increased her strength, and her entire body shone with golden light. She spun and charged forward. No matter how York attacked, he would be knocked away.
He didn't expect that the clothes on the young lady's body were actually made of mithril silk.
Only in this way could he use such a move.
Lauder, who was standing next to Daley, saw Margaret's attack, and his hand that was holding the spear couldn't help but tremble.
"Good archery! But how long can you last if you use your soul power at full force?”
Seeing that he couldn't block the arrow, York shouted and dodged to the side.
Margaret, who was charging forward like an arrow, suddenly turned around and changed direction when she reached York. Her hand, which was shining with golden light, formed a knife shape and slashed at York's waist.
"It's a frontal swing!"
Daley was moved.
York raised his sword, intending to take the attack head-on.
Margaret turned her hand, and the hand knife she used changed to a downward stab, turning into a sword stance.
York's hand seemed to have snapped, and he used his sword to catch the sword.
Maria didn't stop. She lowered her body and kicked.
York jumped up helplessly and dodged the attack.
Margaret also jumped up and elbowed York in the chest.
York, who couldn't dodge, shouted and exhaled. His chest caved in and he dodged the attack.
Margaret extended her elbow and brushed her palm against York's chest. She used her palm as a sword and stabbed towards his throat.
"Seven Stars Shattering Moon!"
Barker, who had been watching intently, couldn't help but cry out.
York had no choice but to throw away his sword and grabbed at Margaret's palm, hoping to slow down the fatal blow.
York felt a soft little hand holding his hand and was stunned.
Seeing Margaret's blushing face, York quickly let go of her delicate hand and cupped his fists.
"Thank you for your mercy, miss. You are indeed invincible under the Martial Soul.”
"Sir is too polite."
Margaret returned the greeting.
"I only took advantage of the equipment.”
"Haha, Miss is too modest. Using spear, arrow, saber, fist, and sword to form the Seven Stars Shattering the Moon, even if I had ten brains, I wouldn't be able to do it. Even if I had such a set of equipment, it was just a set of armor to me.”
York was not unhappy. Instead, he bowed deeply.
"York has benefited greatly from this battle. The name of Mulan is indeed well-deserved.”
"I wouldn't dare. My younger brother is ignorant. If he travels in the future and meets you, I hope you can give me some advice.”
"Don't worry!"
York walked towards the guards at the side.
"I'll stay here for the time being. I won't leave until he becomes a warrior.”
"Thank you, sir."
Margaret looked at the dejected Hank and smiled.
