After experiencing powerlessness and understanding the importance of strength, Ye Qi trained exceptionally hard every day.
In the first few days, he was just like the other ordinary students, doing basic training.
Three days later, he began to train until he was exhausted. The number of laps he ran on the beach increased day by day, and the sword he swung became stronger day by day.
Two weeks later, he stopped training in the dojo like Guina and had his own training place near the backyard.
The bamboo sword hit the wooden stake. Under the full strength of the sword, it broke from once in a few weeks to a few days, and then directly hit the tree.
He ran on the beach, from carrying people on his back to carrying two buckets of stones, and then dragging stones on his feet.
Ye Qi didn't focus on cultivating sword arts like the other apprentices.
He knew that his greatest advantage was that he could absorb the abilities of aptitude users without limit.
The use of many demon fruits did not require a sword, such as rubber fruit, split fruit, hot fruit, and so on.
The sword had become an obstacle, affecting the display of strength.
It wasn't that his swordsmanship was bad, but that it would take too much time and energy to become a Great Sword Hero like the Eagle Eye. It wasn't suitable for someone like him who could absorb fruits endlessly.
Therefore, his focus was still on physical fitness. The physical fitness of an aptitude user was the most important. Otherwise, no matter how well he developed his ability, he would not be able to use it many times.
Spring comes and autumn goes in a year.
During this period of time, an earth-shattering event happened.
Fisher. Tiger barged into the Holy Land of Mary Joshua alone, wreaked havoc, released thousands of slaves, and established the Sun Pirates.
In other words, the three Hancock sisters and Kerla had already escaped from the Holy Land of Mary Joshua.
However, although this incident caused a huge wave in the world, it was only a topic of conversation in the small village of Ximo Zhiji.
But to Ye Qi, it was a matter that had been weighing on her mind, and her heart was much more relaxed.
Sauron, who had been tricked by Ye Qi to another village, didn't appear either. He was probably defeated and joined another dojo.
At the same time, under Ye Qi's intention, he and Guina got along quite well.
The two of them often competed in swordsmanship.
Fast, Precise did not hesitate to slash at the giant tree that the two of them were hugging. He only stopped to rest after an hour.
The big tree was also riddled with wounds. The bark on the side had long been cut off by the bamboo sword. Green juice kept flowing out, and there were even some green bubbles.
Huff! Huff!
Ye Qi leaned against the tree trunk and panted heavily, her lungs almost coming out. After a long while, he panicked and suddenly said to the side.
"Guina, let's have another match today.”
"How did you know I was here?"
Guina walked over with her bamboo sword and asked curiously.
"It's afternoon now. Even if you hide by the wall, you'll still have shadows.”
" Shadow?"
Guina looked at the shadow under her feet and instantly understood.
"Alright, I'll have a match with you. But you just finished training. Why don't you take a break? You can't beat me if you pant like this."
"Thank you for your concern, but didn't you just finish cultivating? Let's begin."
Guina's cheeks were still flushed, and beads of sweat dripped down her forehead. Her dark hair was also wet, making her look quite alluring.
"Alright then, I won't stand on ceremony.”
As she spoke, Guina wielded her bamboo sword and attacked Ye Qi.
Ye Qi, who was already prepared, wielded her sword with both hands and swung it down from above, unwilling to fall behind.
Pa!
He was no longer the ninth-rate swordsman he had been at the beginning, and he would not feel the pain between his thumb and forefinger after receiving a sword strike.
He suddenly charged forward and slashed at Guina, not feeling embarrassed because she was a girl like he did at the beginning.
Previously, because of this, he had used a lot of bamboo swords. If he underestimated it again, he would really be beaten to death.
Compared to Ye Qi's chaotic and fierce attacks, Guina was much more graceful and calm.
The close-range exchange of weapons dazzled Ye Qi, but she was not distracted at all. If he was not careful, it would end instantly.
"Ah!"
The swift and violent attacks made Ye Qi look like a ferocious beast. The bamboo sword slashed out fiercely, and the air whistled.
Facing Ye Qi's attack, Guina's expression did not change. She swung her sword seriously and solemnly.
Pa!
The bamboo sword made a crisp sound, giving people the illusion that the bamboo sword had exploded.
Looking into Guina's eyes, Ye Qi did not take the blow head-on and retreated.
Huff!
Letting out a breath of turbid air, he rushed over without hesitation.
Under the scorching sun, the wind that blew past was scorching hot, and the atmosphere seemed to be distorted.
The two of them were sweating profusely as they moved at high speed. Even Guina could not help but gasp.
The sound of the bamboo sword being swung out quickly and the explosion caused by the collision of the bamboo swords combined into one.
Just the sound alone made one feel the intensity of the battle.
"Ye Qi, compared to a year ago, you've improved a lot.”
Guina held her sword in front of her and looked at Ye Qi with a complicated and happy expression.
She was happy because his strength had increased rapidly, but she was also sad because she was a woman and her strength could not keep up.
At this rate, he would not be his match sooner or later.
Ye Qi said excitedly. It wasn't easy to obtain Guina's gift.
"One year ago, if you don't count the toy sword, that was the first time I touched a sword, and it was also my first time competing. Of course, it can't be compared to now, but it's still a little lacking compared to you.”
"You're improving, so of course I'm improving too. To show the confidence that your words have given me. I will go all out and not hold back at all.”
Guina said seriously.
"In order to feel me, you must hold back!! It hurts to be hit."
Ye Qi smiled bitterly.
Although he said that, he was fully focused and did not dare to be careless.
As he spoke, Guina bent down and attacked Ye Qi, her speed 30% faster than before.
"So fast!"
After thinking to himself, he tensed up.
He could not keep up with the rhythm. Seeing that Guina was about to slash at his abdomen, Ye Qi seized the moment and slashed.
"Pa-!"
"Rip!"
The bamboo sword in Ye Qi's hand fell, and she bent her legs, almost kneeling.
She clutched her waist tightly with both hands, her eyes popping out of their sockets. Her heart was bleeding!!
This place…Was it a kidney?
Don't you want your future sex life?？
" You really did it!!"
Ye Qi squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth.
In that instant, Guina was fast, but not so fast that she could not be seen.
However, her sword swing was even faster, leaving behind only an afterimage in Ye Qi's eyes before she was struck.
The speed of the sword swing was too fast. It was really getting more and more powerful, and it was also getting more and more painful.
"You're going to become the world's number one sword hero. Can't you even take on this?”
Guina flung her hair, which was covered in sweat, to the ground. His unrestrained movements carried a different kind of heroic bearing, looking very clean and neat.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he smiled proudly.
The crazy cultivation, coupled with the intense battle with Guina and the hot weather, made Ye Qi unable to hold on any longer.
He clutched his waist and sat on the ground, struggling to speak.
"The person who wants to become the world's greatest sword hero is you. I am the man who wants to become the world's greatest sword hero in the future.”
"A man without ambition."
Guina's already rosy face was smeared with a layer of shyness. She couldn't help but reply before turning to the side.
