Chapter 717: My Sword-Training Life Officially Begins
Stelle: "March 7th looks a little guilty."
March 7th: "Of course I'm guilty!"
March 7th: "I've never even used a sword before, and you want me to fight with one? I don't even know what kind of moves to use!"
Miss Yunli: "Not knowing is exactly right."
Miss Yunli: "It proves you're a true swordsmanship newbie."
Miss Yunli: "Not some half-baked hack who's only learned a smattering."
Miss Yunli: "Actually, that has its advantages."
Hearing Yanqing: "Mm, a Miss March 7th who hasn't learned the sword is like a blank sheet of paper — easier to teach."
Hearing Yanqing: "As for this actual combat drill, you really just need to wield the sword freely."
Hearing Yanqing: "Simply put, do whatever feels natural!"
Hearing Yanqing: "That way, through this drill, Yunli and I can see exactly what level of comprehension you have toward the sword."
March 7th: "Oh, got it!"
March 7th: "You mean, just let me swing the sword however I want, win or lose doesn't matter, right?"
March 7th: "Then I won't worry anymore."
The video continues.
After hearing Miss Yunli and Hearing Yanqing's explanation,
under their encouraging gazes,
March 7th picked up her twin swords and looked toward the Yunqi Sect instructor opposite her.
【Are you ready?】
Seeing March 7th's movement, the Yunqi Sect instructor opened his mouth to ask.
【I'm ready... but you'd better go easy on me!】
March 7th felt a slight twinge of fear in her heart,
and couldn't help but say to the Yunqi Sect instructor.
【Then pardon my offense, Young Lady!】
The Yunqi Sect instructor nodded, then took up his weapon and charged toward March 7th!
Seeing this, March 7th began trying to use her twin swords to deflect the opponent's attacks!
But since she knew nothing of swordsmanship, the results were far from ideal!
【Don't rush, Miss March 7th — your swordsmanship is still raw. Let me teach you a few moves first!】
【Watch closely, Miss March 7th!】
【Luo Fu swordsmanship emphasizes lightness and agility.】
Watching March 7th being steadily driven back by the Yunqi Sect instructor,
Hearing Yanqing picked up his long sword at this moment,
and demonstrated a few crisp, agile sword techniques for her!
【Don't listen to Hearing Yanqing — brute force works miracles!】
Miss Yunli, unwilling to be outdone, also picked up her trusty old iron,
and showed March 7th a few powerful, heavy sword techniques!
【Oh oh... like this?】
The Yunqi Sect instructor appropriately slowed his assault at this point,
while March 7th watched her two Masters' sword moves,
and began imitating them quite convincingly.
【Looking quite proper!】
【Not bad at all!】
March 7th's imitation was very accurate,
drawing an involuntary exclamation of praise from Hearing Yanqing.
Then, March 7th began trying to use the moves she had just learned
to spar with the Yunqi Sect instructor.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sounds of weapons clashing began to ring out one after another,
and this time, March 7th, who had learned a move or two,
could just barely hold her own against the Yunqi Sect instructor with her sword!
【I'm getting the hang of it!】
【Heart sincere, intent upright — here I come!】
【Watch my ultimate move — Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right...】
With the Yunqi Sect instructor deliberately feeding her moves,
March 7th felt more and more comfortable as she fought,
and in her excitement, words began spilling from her lips.
【Uh... what are you mumbling?】
Miss Yunli, hearing the strange lines coming from March 7th's mouth, was instantly speechless.
【Isn't that... a sword incantation?!】
Stelle: "Pfft!!"
Stelle: "I'm dying of laughter!"
Stelle: "What kind of crappy sword art is this?!"
March 7th: "What are you laughing at?!"
March 7th: "Doesn't my sword art sound cool?"
Silver Wolf: "Your sword art is so dorky, it's not exactly badass!"
Guinaifen: "I get it now — it must be Young Lady March 7th doing it on purpose, to show weakness to the enemy and confuse her opponent!"
March 7th: "Huh?? Is that really what I was thinking in the video?"
Furina: "Haha, it sounds more like Young Lady March 7th was just shouting whatever randomly while she was excited."
