The two of them were sparring now, so Qian Shixiong naturally wouldn't kill them. Li Rui also wanted to test his own combat strength, so he didn't use a bow and arrow. Instead, he drew his sword out of its sheath. The moment the opponent's long spear stabbed in front of him, he twisted his body and swung his arm, smashing the horizontal sword in his hand heavily on the connection between the spear head and the spear body.
With a "dang" sound, the long lance suddenly bounced back, but it did not lose control as Li Rui had expected. Instead, it bent from the head to the center, removing most of the smashing force. The remaining power was transferred to Qian Shixiong's arm, but it was not enough to make his weapon leave his hand.
"Good boy!" Qian Shixiong praised Li Rui's shen power. Moving his hands outwards, he exerted strength in his forearms. The long lance seemed to have a life of its own. It shook in the air and swept over again with the force of the horse charging forward.
This sweep required at least 300 pounds of manpower and horse power. If he forcefully used his saber to block, Li Rui guaranteed that he would be swept off his horse by this lance. So he leaned forward to the side, took the initiative to push off the saddle, and hid his body on the other side of the horse's back, narrowly avoiding it.
When the two armies clashed, the cavalry of both sides usually only had one chance to meet. The first time they couldn't defeat the other party, both sides would come to the other side. Qian Shixiong followed the momentum of his warhorse and ran fifty to sixty steps before turning his horse around and charging back. Li Rui, on the other hand, was still in the same spot, not moving. He had only turned around with his horse.
"Good!" The cheers below the drill ground were like thunder.
Qian Shixiong's fusion with his spear was indeed wonderful, but Li Rui's skillful attacks and clever dodging were also eye-opening.
The men in the army were usually more straightforward. Although the Left Military Guards were in conflict with the grain guards, they would still cheer for them when they saw the other party's wonderful performance.
The second time they met, Qian Shixiong did not show any mercy. Through the first round of probing, he already felt that not only was Li Rui's archery superb, but his close combat skills were also very impressive. Once his contempt was gone, the strength and accuracy of his hands increased greatly.
Li Rui relied on his divine power and agile reaction to barely deal with the second face-off. He knew that if this continued, he would definitely lose. It wasn't that his kung fu wasn't good enough, but that he didn't know how to ride a horse. He could only take a beating on the spot. Moreover, Qian Shixiong was using a long spear while he was using a horizontal saber. He could only defend. This situation itself was a losing situation.
After enduring a few more moves, Li Rui's defense became more and more difficult, and sweat began to appear on his forehead.
Qian Shixiong was full of energy as he laughed at the top of his voice."Brat, if you don't admit defeat, I won't show mercy!”
"General, you should be careful! Because I'm going to use a bow and arrow." Li Rui also replied loudly.
The surroundings of the drill ground were too noisy, so the two of them tried their best to raise their voices when they spoke. Not only did the other party hear their conversation, but the soldiers who were closer to the two also vaguely heard it.
Upon hearing that Li Rui was going to use bows and arrows, the prefecture soldiers hurriedly stopped making noise. They had witnessed Li Rui's godly shooting just now, so they didn't dare to distract Qian Shixiong.
Qian Shixiong had just turned his horse around and was about to launch another attack when he suddenly heard Li Rui shout,"
"Look at the arrows!"
Qian Shixiong didn't even look at him. He suddenly leaned back on the saddle and made a straight iron bridge.
"Good!" Everyone could not help but cheer loudly. Qian Shixiong was wearing armor that weighed dozens of pounds. He was able to dodge the attacks so nimbly on his horse. He was indeed worthy of the title of a fierce general.
After the cheers, someone realized that no arrow was flying towards Qian Shixiong. Li Rui was indeed holding a bow in his hand and shouting loudly, but his fingers didn't even touch the bowstring.
"Howl!" The grain guards laughed in unison. Li Rui was the first person who dared to tease people like this in the martial arts arena. Even if he lost to Qian Shixiong today, the grain guards had gained enough face.
Qian Shixiong couldn't keep his face up when everyone laughed. He straightened his back and raised his body, wanting to charge into the formation with his lance.
Qian Shixiong had just sat up straight on the horse when he suddenly heard the sound of a bowstring. Oh no, this time it was real. This kid was so sinister.
Qian Shixiong had no choice but to lean back.
There was silence, then laughter. In front of him was a blue sky and white clouds, where could there be any arrows flying past? It turned out that this time, Li Rui had only pulled the bowstring in vain and had not nocked an arrow at all.
Even with Qian Shixiong's bravery, he had sweat on his forehead after he raised his body twice in a row while carrying the armor that weighed dozens of kilograms. Knowing that he had been teased by Li Rui again, he wasn't angry. Instead, he laughed. His calves clamped the horse's stomach, and he rushed forward while straightening his back.
In an instant, the warhorse charged forward by more than thirty steps. Qian Shixiong slowly stood up and told himself that no matter what tricks Li Rui played, he would not dodge anymore.
The distance between the two was only a few dozen steps. As long as he rushed forward, he could push Li Rui off the horse's back with a lance.
Qian Shixiong had just raised his head, but before he could look forward, he suddenly heard the sound of the wind. With his many years of battle experience, Qian Shixiong knew that the arrow was coming. How could it be too late to look up again?
There was a loud bang. Qian Shixiong's eyes were filled with stars and his ears were ringing. He could neither see nor hear anything.
It wasn't easy for Qian Shixiong to recover from the chaos when he realized that Li Rui had already arrived in front of him and was looking at him with a smile.
Qian Shixiong blushed. Although he wasn't shot down from his horse by Li Rui, he would have died a hundred times if Li Rui really wanted to kill him during the time he was in a daze. What's more, Li Rui's arrow was obviously lenient. Otherwise, why would he shoot at the top of his helmet?
