"Again."
"One more time."
"Try again."
"This is the last time."
The way things had happened was a little different from what Lin An had imagined.
The " one more time " was not Lin An, who was addicted to martial arts, but Jiang Qingxue, who had been reluctant at first.
In the first round, Lin An's wooden saber was placed on her neck after three moves.
In the second round of the competition, Jiang Qingxue's arm was cut off with one slash, and her waist was cut off with the second slash.
Even though Lin An had intentionally held back his strength when he struck, the length of the wooden miaodao was still there. No matter how much strength he held back, he would still leave a red mark on the ground.
In the third round, Lin An had seen through Jiang Qingxue's attack the moment she attacked. He had made a dangerous move and bent down to dodge the attack. The moment he dodged the attack, he had pushed the tip of the blade up to Jiang Qingxue's chin.
Jiang Qingxue almost bumped her own neck.
The fourth time, Lin An broke the wooden blade in her hand with a single slash.
The miaodao was long, but if it was too hard, it would break easily. Even if it was a wooden saber, as long as he found the weak part in the middle, he would be able to split the wooden saber in half with a heavy slash.
After that, Jiang Qingxue did not say anything about doing it again.
She stood rooted to the ground, her expression full of doubt.
It wasn't that Jiang Qingxue wasn't prepared to be beaten up. In fact, she had mentally prepared herself for this. She believed that Lin An had most likely practiced other sword techniques before, and he might even be one of those so-called 'martial arts fanatics' who liked to study some 'very cruel' martial arts routines.
Perhaps they had already fought many times in actual combat.
It was understandable that he couldn't beat her.
However, she never expected that.
He was actually so useless.
Jiang Qingxue looked at Lin An with mixed feelings."'I've been practicing martial arts for many years. I can't say that I'm dedicated, but I can say that I'm serious and hardworking.'
" Even I feel that most of these so-called martial arts are just to strengthen the body and are part of the cultural heritage.'
but
"I don't want to practice anymore. I'll return the money to you.”
Jiang Qingxue put down the wooden saber, her eyes misty. If it were a wuxia novel or a cultivation novel, she would have at least had her Dao heart broken.
After practicing for so many years, he was beaten up like a newbie.
What was there to practice?
What dojo?
Misleading the children?
Lin An felt a little awkward. He wanted to hold back as well, but once they started fighting, he kept thinking about how to improve his saber techniques. If he did, she wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"No need to retreat, no need to retreat."
Lin An wasn't interested in money. Forget about ten thousand yuan, he could even burn the hundreds of thousands of yuan in his bank account. He just needed to borrow from some 'kind-hearted' big brothers.
Looking at Jiang Qingxue's dejected expression, Lin An felt a little apologetic. If he were in Jiang Qingxue's shoes, who would believe that Jiang Qingxue had mastered it in a few hours?
His actions were simply like 'peer scouting, disguised as a challenge.'
Jiang Qingxue didn't scold him for " deliberately finding fault " or " pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger to bully people ". This was enough to show that she was a reasonable and good person.
Of course, if that was all, Lin An would probably just apologize. However, there was still a need to befriend Jiang Qingxue.
If nothing unexpected happened, she would be able to mutate and evolve once the apocalypse arrived. Compared to Lin An, who could only be a " brute " at the moment, the power she possessed was not of any use.
Lin An still remembered that after he was besieged by the flock of birds in the simulation today, she suddenly exploded with a power similar to a spiritual attack and instantly crushed the flock of birds.
If this power could be properly developed and utilized, it would be very useful even if it could not be used as his tool.
not to mention
She was quite pretty.
Even if Lin An didn't have any romantic thoughts at the moment, it would be better to have a beautiful girl to accompany him through the apocalypse than to be alone, right?
"Jiang Qingxue, you don't have to think too much about it. You practice martial arts, and when you fight, you want to learn martial arts. To put it bluntly, I picked up my miaodao because I wanted to cut people.”
Lin An walked beside her and comforted her,""I'm not boasting. Other than me, no one has specially studied the use of cold weapons in combat. You don't usually practice your saber to fight with others, right?”
Jiang Qingxue was expressionless. She gritted her teeth and maintained her composure."You are indeed very strong."
You called me Teacher Jiang before, but now you're calling me Jiang Qingxue after beating me up. What kind of person is this?
"I'll treat you to a meal. I still have something to ask of you.”
Lin An didn't waste any time and said,""I want to get a proper miaodao. One is not enough. I might need two or three. I have to get them within a week.”
"Yes." Jiang Qingxue took a few deep breaths to temporarily suppress the depression in her heart and looked at him calmly.
"But I have to remind you that we are now a society ruled by law.”
" I know." Lin An smiled.
Jiang Qingxue glanced at him, thinking that if this person lived in ancient times, he would most likely be a great demon who killed people.
"There's no need to eat. You gave me so much money today, so just treat it as money to buy a knife.”
"I don't want it to be used for a performance. It has to be durable and bigger than yours. 1.7 meters might be more suitable for my height.”
"The weight has to be increased too. It would be best if it's twice as heavy as yours.”
The more Jiang Qingxue listened, the more she felt that something was wrong. She stopped and took two steps back warily."What are you planning to do with this knife?”
He couldn't really be planning to kill people, right?
Lin An smiled kindly upon hearing this.""Don't misunderstand. I'm really a good person.”
"How about this, let's have a meal together. We've been practicing for so long and I'm hungry. I've offended you today, but I think that after all, having more friends means more paths.”
At first, Jiang Qingxue had rejected him a few times, but for some reason, Lin An seemed to be able to hear what she was thinking. With just a few words, she was able to calm down and even change her opinion of him.
They chatted all the way back to the dojo. Lin An was already chatting and laughing with her, as if they had been good friends for many years. It was strange that he seemed to be able to read her mind. Every word he said pierced into her heart as if they were bosom friends, making her feel that the two of them really hit it off.
Not only did she agree to have a meal with him, but she also agreed to work with him.
It wasn't until the two of them found a restaurant to eat and drink to their hearts 'content, exchanged contact information, and went their separate ways that Jiang Qingxue sat on the sofa at home to sort out what had happened today. After sorting out her thoughts, she covered her face in a dilemma and fell into a daze.
This guy was poisonous!
Did he drug her?
