Chapter 78: Sword God Style
Chapter 78: Sword God Style
"three……"
"two……"
"one!"
"start!"
"Water..."
"Buzz!"
Before the words were even finished, the student holding the staff was struck by the wooden sword and sent flying backward, landing outside the lawn.
"The game is over! Alexios has won!"
As the referee's voice rang out, many of the watching mages let out a sigh, their faces showing disappointment.
It's no wonder they were disappointed. After all, from morning until now, no one has been a match for Alexius. Even though Alexius hasn't used his full strength as a sword saint, but only at a near-skill level, most of the students are powerless to fight back.
The student who just took the stage is already the most outstanding among this year's graduates; it is said that he will be a high-ranking magician going to serve in the court of some kingdom tomorrow.
He was defeated so easily, and he had only used a move from a high-level swordsman...
"As expected, Master was right... Mages are no match for us swordsmen, especially swordsmen of the Sword God style." Sword Saint Alexius placed his wooden sword behind his head, looking relaxed.
He killed so many mages one after another, and he didn't even break a sweat.
His words drew the ire of many onlookers, but they only dared to glare at Alexius; after all, going up to fight was out of the question...
Most of them were already defeated.
Seeing the students' angry but speechless expressions, Alexius laughed loudly. He casually took his sword and walked around the lawn, and the students all took a few steps back.
"Is that all?" he said, raising an eyebrow. "Anyone else want to take on the challenge?"
"If not, does that mean our Holy Land of Swords has won?" he said, looking at the professors standing by the lawn.
"Why don't you guys give it a try?"
"I heard that you have a few Saint-level mages among you, right?" His words immediately made the professors frown.
This also caused Luo Qixi and Lanlieta, who had been watching for a while, to exchange a glance.
"This guy is way too arrogant!" Lanleta pursed her lips in dissatisfaction. "He probably can't even write his own name..."
He is indeed a bit arrogant... but he is really powerful... Luo Qixi just observed his battle... such a fast-moving swordsman is indeed a natural nemesis to mages.
If it were professors... it's hard to say whether they could defeat him.
"Alright, Mr. Alexius... the contest is only between students," Genus coughed, reminding him, "and didn't you already try the contest with the professor?"
Has any professor already fought against him?
Luo Qixi was subconsciously a little surprised, and the students watching also looked at each other, seemingly unaware of who the person was.
"Who is it?" Alexius was also taken aback. Leaning on his sword, he asked, "I don't remember fighting any professor."
"Do you take me for a fool?"
Upon hearing this, Genus slightly pursed his lips, but outwardly maintained a serious and polite demeanor. He smiled slightly and said, "Have you forgotten your duel with Lady Sylvania last night?"
"Looks like your neck isn't hurting enough."
teacher?
Upon hearing this, Luo Qixi slightly curled the corners of her mouth. If it were her teacher and him... then her teacher would definitely defeat him easily... after all, even the Northern King was easily killed by her teacher.
"..." Upon hearing Cinderella's name, Alexius was visibly embarrassed. He scratched his neck, and seeing the students around him gossiping, he seemed to feel a little ashamed. He coughed and said, "That was...that was just a sneak attack by that guy..."
"She has no martial ethics... and if it were face to face, I might not be able to defeat her." Alexius's words caused the smile on Loki's face to freeze slightly.
What do you mean by "that guy"... Show some respect to your teacher, you idiot.
"Besides..." Alexius continued, seemingly engrossed in his words, "I wouldn't hesitate to stoop to her level."
"She's just a little kid who hasn't even grown all her hair yet... I was just letting her have her way on purpose..."
"..."
As he finished speaking, Genius raised an eyebrow.
Thankfully, Principal Sylvania must be asleep... otherwise, if she had heard these words, it's uncertain whether this guy would have made it back alive.
If this guy dies at school, it'll be hard to explain to those idiots in the kingdom and the Holy Land of Swords...
"What are you saying?!"
Just as Genius was pondering, he suddenly heard an angry voice. Not only him, but everyone present looked at the person who had just spoken.
That was Lokishi Migrudia, with blue hair and blue eyes. She was glaring angrily at Alexios in front of her, biting her lip.
Lanleta, standing behind her, was staring at her in shock.
"Where did you come from, little kid?" Alexius scratched his ear and said, "I have no interest in bullying children..."
"I am Lokishi Migrudia, an adult! Furthermore, I am a student of Lady Ciderlin Sylvania." Lokishi glared angrily at Alexios. "I challenge you!"
"Hmm?" Upon hearing her identity, Alexius paused for a moment, then raised an eyebrow with an interested expression: "Do you two have some kind of weird quirk... Why do you both look like you haven't grown any hair yet?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Qixi took a deep breath, then closed her eyes slightly and thought for a few seconds. Afterward, as if she had calmed down, she slowly asked, "Is your Sword God School the same?"
"They all seem so simple-minded!"
Her retort made Alexius frown. He snorted and said, "You'd better have the guts to say something like that."
"Some of them were even defeated by the teacher, yet they still act so self-important during the conversation." Loki's sarcastic words made Alexius's face even uglier. He glared at Loki and slowly said, "You should be glad this was just a competition."
"If you weren't in this school, you would be dead."
"Heh." Luo Qixi looked at him defiantly and said, "So, do you dare to compete with me?"
"Of course." Alexius raised an eyebrow and said, "Since you're the headmaster's student, defeating you... this so-called challenge is over, right?"
"You could say that," Genus said slowly. He glanced at Loki with a hint of helplessness. If he had known that the principal and student were here, he wouldn't have said what he just said.
If the principal's students also lose now, then La Noah University will truly lose face.
But... what if...?
If she could win... Genus looked at the short student and felt that the chances were slim.
