The entire scene was extremely awkward.
Obviously, everyone had seen Ariel take revenge for her brother.
Everyone knew that the last time Vega wanted to bully Jayce, she was taught a lesson by Ariel.
"Humph! Jess, don't be so smug. If you didn't have a good sister, you would have been crippled by me long ago!”
"Unconvinced? So what if I have a good sister?”Jayce said with a cheeky smile.
It made Vega furious.
However, Vega was not stupid. He knew the purpose of his trip.
They were here to cause trouble for Noah, not Jess.
If he wanted to bully someone, he had to find a commoner to bully.
Even if Noah was crippled for life.
What could Ariel do to him?
This commoner was not a noble.
He believed that Count Reynolds would never fall out with the Dance family for a commoner.
Therefore, he wanted to regain the face he lost last time.
He had to start with Noah.
Dan Si raised his hand and saw a lackey beside him throw a piece of black paper in front of Noah.
"I am Nessus, and I issue a challenge to you, Noah!”
"This afternoon, the duel will be held in the square! Your ranking is 201, the lowest student in the class. You can't refuse my challenge.”
As soon as Nessus finished speaking, a disdainful smile appeared on Vega's face.
A commoner was a commoner. Who did they think they were?
Did he really think that he could cling onto the Reynolds clan's thigh?
As soon as he finished speaking, Vega turned around and left with Nessus.
For a moment, Jess was stunned."Oh no, Noah, you've been challenged!”
Noah picked up the black paper on the table and glanced at it." This is the letter of challenge? What use does it have?"
Jess frowned." The students of the academy can get a challenge letter every week. They can challenge any student who is not higher than them by ten ranks.”
"Ten rankings? I seem to be the lowest in the class. How can he challenge me with a challenge letter?”
"Yes, the challenge letter has an upper limit of ten rankings, but there is no lower limit. In other words, you can use it to beat up any low-ranked student.”
"I'll go. Then can I refuse?”Noah asked.
He was not afraid, but he did not want to fight.
As a Cleric, he had not learned any offensive skills yet. Even if he was stronger, he could only fight to a draw.
He couldn't possibly chase Nessus around with his fists, could he?
Wouldn't his armor be 100% exposed?
If things went wrong, the students in the academy might notice.
It would cause some unnecessary trouble.
Especially since he was a commoner, it was better to be careful.
Jess was also at his wit's end. Even if he was a noble, he could not defy the academy's rules.
"Noah, you can only fight. It doesn't matter if you can't beat him. As long as you can last for an hour, you'll lose.”
"An hour? Does that mean I can't admit defeat yet?"
"That's right. The academy is afraid that students will abuse the challenge letter and not take the competition seriously, so they have this rule.”
"Beaten for an hour? I can't do that."
Noah shook his head.
He had to think of a way. He couldn't just defend. He had to use other offensive advantages to counterattack.
Even if the damage was slightly lower, there was still hope of victory.
Just as Noah was thinking of a solution, he suddenly saw the sword on Jess 'waist.
There was a way. Although he was not a fighter, he could still learn some basic sword techniques.
With his swordsmanship and his Flash Spell, he could definitely counterattack!
Most importantly, he had an invincible defense.
No matter how strong the other party's attack was, it could not break through his defense.
He was never afraid of being attacked by his opponent.
As long as he could seize the opportunity to counterattack, he would be able to earn even one more slash!
"Jess, you know that we clergymen lack offensive means in the early stages. Can you teach me a few sword techniques?”
"Ah?" Hearing this, Jess was a little dumbfounded. Clergy learning swordsmanship? Wasn't this too strange?
However, what Noah said was not wrong. The lack of offensive means in the early stages of the clergy was indeed a troublesome matter.
If he were to fight against a beginner fighter, it would be possible to learn some swordsmanship.
At least he wouldn't lose so badly.
At this moment, Jess was already certain that Noah would lose.
Because Noah had once said that although he was born into a clergyman family, he was still a priest.
However, he had never learned any orthodox clergy skills.
In addition, he had just entered school.
It was even more impossible for him to be a match for Nessus.
One had to know that Nessus, this lackey, was ranked above him.
198th!
It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for Noah to win.
However, it was still possible to lose beautifully.
Jess got up and left the cafeteria with Noah.
Taking advantage of the lunch break, Jess brought Noah to the small forest behind the mountain of the academy.
He began to teach Noah some basic sword techniques.
If one didn't add battle energy to a sword technique, its power would be very weak.
When used, the damage was similar to that of an ordinary person using a sword to slash at someone.
He couldn't do it to the point where he could split rocks with a single sword strike.
Under Jess 'guidance, Noah managed to learn some basic sword techniques.
For example, block, stab, and parry.
Although it was only the most basic thing.
But it also gave Noah the confidence to defeat Nessus.
After all, he had a super trump card. His perfect body armor had mutated from an E-class skill to an A-class skill.
As long as he had the armor, no A-class skills could break through his defense.
Nessus was only a beginner fighter. How could he hurt him?
