The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Chapter 39: Skill Competition 1

Grand Duke Blanc stared at Charles, his tone full of meaning: "Charles, now you should understand that compared with a true genius, you..." His words stopped abruptly, but the meaning was self-evident.

He hoped that this setback would be an opportunity for Charles to recognize the gap between himself and genius. Grand Duke Blanc knew that only by experiencing such setbacks could Charles truly mature and learn humility and respect.

His eyes were firm and serious, and he obviously hoped that Charles could learn a lesson from this instead of indulging in arrogance and pride.

Hunter's eyes sparkled with a fiery light, and he praised sincerely: "Matthews, you have grown to this point. I was confident in my own strength, but when I witnessed your true performance with my own eyes, I have to admit that your strength shocked me, and now I am even a little bit unconfident."

His voice was full of recognition and admiration for Matthews, and also revealed a strong desire to compete, as if he couldn't wait to compete with Matthews again.

Matthews seemed calm and composed. He smiled and said confidently: "Why, are you scared now? If I said I was just trying it out, you wouldn't just kneel down, would you?" His tone revealed confidence and provocation, as if he had complete control of the situation.

Hunter was not angered by Matthews' words, but responded with a smile: "You are really unworthy of praise. Do you want to take a rest first? I don't want to take advantage of you."

However, Matthews shook his head firmly and said, "It's not even a warm-up. Come on, let's get started!" His tone was firm and decisive, as if he was ready to face the challenge. This duel was destined to be an exciting contest.

Then, Matthews and Hunter bowed slightly in the direction of Grand Duke Leo and Grand Duke Bai Lan in tacit understanding to show their respect to them. Their movements were elegant and solemn, showing the demeanor of chivalry.

After the ceremony, the two turned to face each other, their eyes determined, as if they were already in the middle of a battle. The air around them became tense because of their momentum, and everyone held their breath, looking forward to the exciting duel that was to follow.

Matthews and Hunter held their swords tightly and took their starting positions. The air was filled with a tense and silent atmosphere, and both seemed to be waiting for the best opportunity.

Suddenly, they moved. Hunter suddenly attacked, his movements were swift and decisive, he used the sword technique from Leo's fast sword - Seven Stars One Point.

The long sword in his hand cut through the air like a flash of lightning, and the sword light flashed and went straight to Matthews' vital points. What was even more amazing was that the tip of the sword drew seven sword points in the air, as dazzling as the Big Dipper, cleverly blocking all possible attack routes of Matthews.

Matthews was shocked when he saw this. He had originally planned to perform a spinning technique, which was both powerful and fast, but he obviously underestimated Hunter.

He didn't expect Hunter's swordsmanship to be so exquisite, catching him off guard, and there was nothing he could do to attack. If he forcefully attacked at this moment, he would only be completely suppressed by his opponent.

Matthews quickly adjusted his tactics and adopted a more robust defensive strategy. Although he was proficient in various defensive and attack-breaking techniques, he had to switch to full defense in the face of Hunter's fast swordsmanship. The situation on the field was extremely unfavorable to Matthews for a while.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Harris could not help but exclaimed: "Good!"

Emily looked at the field eagerly and asked her father, Sir Harris, for confirmation: "Father, did my brother have the upper hand?"

Lord Harris watched the tense duel on the field, nodded approvingly and said, "Yes, Hunter's strength and combat wisdom have improved greatly. At the beginning of the game, he caught his opponent off guard with his amazing speed and superb sword skills."

On the training ground, two swordsmen were having a tense duel. They moved quickly on the field, their swords flashing, showing their superb martial arts. Hunter fully utilized the essence of Leo's fast sword. His attacks were as dense and swift as a rainstorm, and each sword was full of murderous intent.

Matthews showed his excellent defense and attack breaking skills. Although his sword speed was not as fast, he made up for it with his footwork. After the initial panic, he gradually stabilized his position and showed a trend of getting braver and braver. Even in the defensive state, he was not afraid of Hunter's fierce attack.

Although the two men moved quickly and fiercely, there was no dull sound of heavy swords colliding on the field. Only bursts of crisp "ding ding ding" sounds were heard, as if they were playing an exciting symphony. This duel was not only a contest of strength and skills, but also a collision of wisdom and courage.

Sophia watched the duel between the two masters with full concentration. She exclaimed: "They are too fast. I can't keep up with their movements. I can only see my brother constantly attacking quickly, while Matthews has been flexibly retreating to defend. Father, did my brother really suppress Matthews?"

Lord Harris narrowed his eyes slightly and observed the situation on the field attentively. He shook his head slightly and answered in a low and powerful voice: "No, Hunter's attack was indeed very fierce. He seemed to want to suppress Matthews with his swift attack. However, Matthews has stabilized from his initial panic. He showed excellent defensive ability and remained calm without revealing any obvious flaws. Both sides still have a chance in this duel."

His tone was full of appreciation and recognition for the strength of Hunter and Matthews, and he was full of anticipation for the outcome of this fierce battle.

Hunter's attack was like a storm, and his steps were as fast as lightning. However, facing Matthews, his attacks were like a drop in the ocean, unable to break through the phantom-like defense.

Matthews' steps were extremely agile, as if he could see through Hunter's every move and always guided the rhythm of the battle just right.

Emily watched the duel intently and could not help but exclaimed: "Matthews's movements are so beautiful! It looks like he is performing a graceful dance.

Lord Harris watched the duel on the field with a solemn expression on his face. He explained: "Matthews used the Albert family's unique skill - the ghost dance. This footwork requires flexibility, lightness, ghostliness and erraticness. Look at his performance on the field, he is like a ghost, erratic and elusive."

After listening to her father's explanation, Emily appreciated the duel even more. She was amazed at the exquisite footwork of the Albert family and the outstanding performance of the two swordsmen. This duel was not only a contest of swordsmanship, but also a feast of art.
