Chapter 26: The strongest sparring partner, Zhao Dayong? Lu Bu says he wants more

"Gu Yi?"

"What is he here for?"

Lu Bu, who was gripping his halberd, could not help but slowly put down his Painted Halberd.

With Lu Bu’s brain capacity, he could not think of those overly profound questions.

In his eyes.

Gu Yi, hanging out with Hua Xiong, Zhang Ji, and others, was considered Xiliang core.

And the Bingzhou faction could be said to be incompatible like fire and water.

However.

Since Gu Yi visited in person, Lu Bu could not directly turn him away.

Thus, the following scene occurred.

……

"I heard General Fengxian has been troubled recently because there is no one to spar with?"

"What do you think of this person behind me?"

After saying this, Gu Yi pushed Zhao Yun out.

The moment he saw Zhao Yun, Lu Bu’s brows furrowed slightly.

This person looked clean and fair, not like a martial artist.

But his internal meridians were extremely complex.

It seemed... not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

However, Lu Bu, who was used to being arrogant and domineering, said with disdain:

"You both know my martial arts."

"If I accidentally injure him, I will not be held responsible."

"Hahahaha."

"General Fengxian is overthinking."

"If this person were so easily injured by you, I would not have brought him here so easily today."

Gu Yi smiled.

Lu Bu’s martial arts could be called the best in the world. ===== CHAPTER 54 =====

Moreover, he was nearly thirty years old, approaching his peak.

After all.

Even Lu Bu’s daughter, Lu Lingqi, was said to be fourteen.

Almost at the age to be married.

His peak years gave Lu Bu much more arm strength and experience than Zhao Yun.

But this also meant that Lu Bu’s room for improvement was basically capped.

In stark contrast to him.

Zhao Yun was much younger.

Although it was impossible for Zhao Yun to defeat Lu Bu for the time being.

He could improve himself through sparring with Lu Bu.

Looking at the world, in terms of martial arts, what sparring partner is more valuable than Lu Bu?

Letting Zhao Yun spar with Lu Bu.

For Gu Yi, this was a cost-free deal.

And the result obtained could allow Zhao Yun’s martial arts to advance further on his original foundation!

Being looked down upon by Lu Bu, a trace of fighting spirit also appeared on Zhao Yun’s face!

The Flying General Lu Bu, who in the world does not know him?

Zhao Yun was only at the age of just starting out.

He did not expect that one day he would actually have the opportunity to fight Lu Bu.

For a martial artist.

A duel is an extremely sacred thing.

People like the Guandong warlords who lack martial virtue and rely on gang tactics when they cannot win are, after all, a minority.

The duel began quickly.

Lu Bu said he would not be responsible if he injured him, but for the sake of safety, he chose to use a wooden halberd and a wooden spear for the test.

Gu Yi found a suitable seat and sat down, watching the duel between the top fierce generals of the era with a relaxed face.

Compared to strength, Zhao Yun was better at technique.

In the blink of an eye, the two had fought for more than ten rounds.

Lu Bu also gradually shifted from initial disdain to seriousness.

He realized that the Zhao Yun before him had martial power no less than Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, whom he had encountered outside Hulao Pass that day.

And in terms of technique, he was even a step better!

Zhang Fei, like Lu Bu, was a typical strength-based fighter.

But Lu Bu’s technique was much better than Zhang Fei’s.

Guan Yu was different from most other fierce generals.

He was neither strength-based nor technique-based, but explosive!

The power of his first three strikes was hard for ordinary people to block.

But once blocked, it was difficult for Guan Yu to unleash such a strong offensive again in a short time.

And what about Zhao Yun?

At the first exchange, Lu Bu felt his level was at most that of a first-rate fierce general of the era.

But as they fought, Zhao Yun’s spear technique changed with the passage of time!

Elusive and impossible to defend against!

The varied and powerful techniques made Lu Bu not dare to be rash.

After all.

Facing a technique-based fierce general like Zhao Yun who plays the pig to eat the tiger.

The outcome can often be decided in an instant.

Unknowingly.

The two had fought for over a hundred rounds.

Their foreheads were already drenched in sweat.

Facing the peerless Lu Bu, the pressure Zhao Yun faced was imaginable.

Through the fight, he also realized the gap between himself and Lu Bu.

Battlefield experience is very precious to a general.

Lu Bu of Baotou (Jiuyuan) had spent half his life in the saddle, his martial arts stained with the blood of the Xianbei and Southern Xiongnu.

And Zhao Yun was just starting out, his battlefield experience could be considered almost zero.

In the end.

At over a hundred rounds, the wooden spear in Zhao Yun’s hand was shattered by Lu Bu’s wooden halberd.

The duel ended.

Lu Bu was not good with words, but his gaze toward Zhao Yun was full of joy.

This feeling was like...

Like a wolf or tiger in its prime, meeting rain after a long drought?

For a top-tier fierce general like Lu Bu.

In terms of martial power, there were very few people in the world qualified to spar with him.

And Zhao Yun was clearly in that category.

When Gu Yi and Zhao Yun intended to leave.

They suddenly heard Lu Bu say:

"Coming back tomorrow?"

"I will wait for you."

Leaving these two sentences, Lu Bu silently picked up the wooden halberd and the damaged wooden spear from the ground.

It seemed...

He was still savoring the battle just now.
