The Seventh Base-Chapter 532 - 9: Winning with Weakness over Strength

Chapter 532 -9: Winning with Weakness over Strength

Xu Mo was reading in the library when he received a message from Ize.

“Xu Mo, is there a quick way to learn combat skills?” Ize asked through the communicator. He had to face Mokov’s challenge the next day, and the pressure was immense.

Although he also knew that combat was not achieved overnight and that it was almost impossible to learn quickly in a short amount of time, Xu Mo was strong both in practice and in theory and was at the same level as him, so Ize still wanted to try.

“Theoretically, a person’s combat power can’t improve greatly in a short time,” Xu Mo responded. “Have you met an opponent?”

He already knew that Lucas University had organized a new Transcendent contest today.

It must have been because he met an opponent that he asked him.

“Yes,” Ize responded. “He uses a sword like you do, his sword technique is domineering, his power exceeds mine, and his attack speed and reaction aren’t worse than mine now.”

“Is the gap big?” Xu Mo asked.

“I’ve also made considerable progress these days, so the gap won’t be too wide,” Ize replied. If the gap was very wide, there would be no need to ask because it would mean certain defeat.

It was precisely because the gap wasn’t too huge, and the opponent also wanted to deliberately humiliate him, that he sought Xu Mo to ask if there were any shortcut methods.

“Combat power can’t be gained quickly, but there are tricks that can be used in the process of fighting, such as if your reaction speed is fast enough, it is possible to defeat stronger opponents,” Xu Mo said. His own characteristic was his quick reaction speed, which made facing opponents of the same level feel like a reduction in dimensionality, as their attack speeds seemed slowed down in front of him.

However, Ize did not have such an ability.

“Does he have any obvious characteristics?” Xu Mo asked.

“Sword technique. He has cultivated a very domineering set of Combat Skill Blade Techniques. If I face the full set of these Combat Skill Blade Techniques, I’ll basically have no hope. In tomorrow’s fight, he will definitely use this sword technique to aggressively suppress me,” Ize said.

“Can you get me the battle video and the video of the sword skill? I’ll study them,” Xu Mo said.

“Okay, it’ll take some time, wait for me,” Ize said, then hung up the communicator.

After a while, he got the battle video and the sword technique cultivation video, which he sent to Xu Mo.

After watching them in the library, Xu Mo sent a message to Ize: “When are you free? Let’s meet at the same place as last time.”

“I’m free anytime,” Ize responded after hearing Xu Mo’s words.

Could Xu Mo really have a solution?

“Wait for me after dinner,” Xu Mo said.

“Okay,” Ize agreed, and they ended the call.

After dinner.

On the training ground.

It was just Xu Mo and Ize there, with Xu Mo wielding a sword, and Ize holding a blade.

“Get ready, go all out, show your strongest state,” Xu Mo said. “Treat me as tomorrow’s opponent.”

“Okay,” Ize nodded.

The next moment, Xu Mo advanced with his sword, a fierce Energy Light flowing over the Heavy Sword. He leaped into the air and brought down his blade as if it carried the weight of Mount Tai.

Ize’s sword erupted with purple Energy Light, he raised his hand and slashed out, colliding with the sword, the powerful force made Ize’s balance waver, but what came next was a series of sword techniques, each strike containing wild power, slashing from the front continuously.

“Boom, boom, boom…” The violent clashes continued, and after a moment, Xu Mo swept out with his sword, the blade light burst forth, and the domineering blade aura was terrifying, knocking Ize’s sword away and then hitting his body. However, Xu Mo held back some of his strength and merely pushed Ize back a few steps.

“Gravity Blade Technique.”

Ize stared at Xu Mo, recognizing the Gravity Blade Technique Mokov used, the one he sent the video of to Xu Mo.

Now, with the sword in front of Xu Mo, it was identical to Mokov’s technique, equally domineering. Ize felt as if Xu Mo was simulating the battle he would have tomorrow.

“This is my simulation of his combat power based on the video analysis. Do you think there’s a big discrepancy?” Xu Mo asked.

“It shouldn’t be too far off,” Ize said, somewhat astonished.

The more Ize experienced Xu Mo’s capabilities, the more terrifying he found him. Initially, he only thought Xu Mo was theoretically strong, but after experiencing his practical skill he realized Xu Mo could also overpower him without the chance for a counterattack. Now, being able to simulate Mokov’s combat just from a video demonstrated an incredible learning ability.

Truly worthy of being from the Royal Family of Anos!

“Hmm,” Xu Mo nodded. “There’s a chance to win. The key to the Gravity Blade Technique is to concentrate all power onto the blade, making the attacks overwhelming. He is strong, but your sword is not weak either. As long as you withstand his onslaught and find an opportunity, you can make a fatal strike.”

“But during the fight, it’s hard to find such an opportunity. Under that kind of offensive, I can only barely manage to cope, it’s difficult to counter,” Ize said.

His judgment wasn’t wrong; indeed, it was difficult to find a chance to counterattack.

“According to the Gravity Blade Technique, you should strengthen the attack power of your Heavy Sword, first try to boost your instant explosive power, only then will you have an opportunity,” Xu Mo spoke. “Now take up your sword.”

Ize did as instructed, and unconsciously, he had come to greatly respect Xu Mo.

“Close your eyes, feel the flow of energy. At this moment, concentrate all your spiritual power on the sword. Let nothing else distract you,” Xu Mo continued. “Try to find that feeling.”

Ize closed his eyes, the energy flowed around his body with the Energy Light flickering, exceptionally splendid.

Xu Mo’s voice seemed to possess a kind of magic, concentrating Ize’s attention within it.

“Hiss, hiss…” The Energy Sword burst into a brilliant light.

“Forget all techniques, forget the moves, even forget the opponent, the sword is your everything, feel its existence,” Xu Mo kept talking, and the light on the sword became brighter and brighter.
