The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Although Matthews is not a swordsman, he has an extraordinary ability to respond to situations. His potential is like a sleeping beast that can only be awakened in real battles.

Under the professional guidance of Grand Duke Leo, he began to abandon his previous sword-wielding skills and instead focused on and deliberately used Leo's fast sword. Although he had not yet been able to unleash the ultimate speed of Leo's fast sword, Matthews could already feel the essence of Leo's fast sword in battle.

Thanks to the heated atmosphere of the duel, people were talking about Benjamin's powerful strength. Hunter and Charles took this opportunity to conduct an in-depth investigation and sorted out Benjamin's fighting skills in detail.

As far as they know, Benjamin is not only proficient in the Soqin family's inherited swordsmanship, which is famous for its variety and unexpectedness, allowing him to easily deal with various complex situations in battle. He also learned a set of extremely lethal swordsmanship from his swordsmanship teacher, which is characterized by swiftness and directness, and can cause significant damage to the enemy in a short period of time.

In addition to swordsmanship, Benjamin also learned Wallace's boxing style from Master Wallace. This boxing style is known for its simplicity, practicality and directness. It is not only extremely fast, but also extremely aggressive. If it can be fully displayed, the opponent will hardly be able to resist it.

Overall, Benjamin's fighting skills are very comprehensive. His sword skills are flexible and swift, and his boxing skills are concise, efficient and domineering. Whether it is a protracted battle or a quick battle, he can handle it with ease.

Matthews expressed his deep gratitude to his friends for their intelligence work, which was both timely and useful to him. His expression changed from previous worry to a kind of transcendent calm, as if he had understood something.

Charles brought shocking news: the Emperor of the Empire had issued an order to postpone the duel for ten days.

Everyone present was shocked that an ordinary duel could attract the attention of the emperor. The arrival of Knight Browne further confirmed the authenticity of the news. He came with the emperor's order and informed Matthews.

For Matthews, this news was an unexpected surprise. It meant that he would have more time to prepare for the battle and improve his swordsmanship.

Facing Brownie Knight, he was surprisingly calm and even gave him a sly smile: "Tell Benjamin to watch his thighs."

These words stunned everyone present. They were not sure whether Matthews was bluffing or really had some method to defeat the enemy.

Knight Brownie was slightly stunned, but then his cold face shrouded again. He glanced at Matthews, with a hint of imperceptible respect in his tone: "Boy, you still have the courage to say this, I have to admire your courage!" After that, he turned and left without saying anything more.

Hunter asked puzzledly: "Matthews, you deliberately provoked Benjamin, aren't you afraid of provoking him to be more hostile?"

Matthews smiled lightly, appearing calm and unhurried: "Don't worry, I do this for a reason." His eyes revealed calmness and wisdom, showing his confidence in the upcoming duel.

Matthews had already sorted out the current situation and was no longer blindly afraid of Benjamin. He even deliberately provoked the other party, hoping that Benjamin would take the initiative to initiate close combat.

Although Benjamin learned from a close combat master and mastered his unique boxing skills, which undoubtedly greatly enhanced his close combat ability, Matthews was still confident in his close combat ability.

He believes that the improvement of close combat skills does not only rely on superb boxing techniques and the guidance of a master, but also requires countless life-and-death battles to forge a truly tenacious will, a strong heart and a unique personal style.

Although Matthews does not dare to call himself a master of close combat, the countless life-and-death battles he has experienced in "Ancient Martial Arts World" have endowed him with an indestructible heart and an unpredictable, fierce and bloodthirsty fighting style. His title of "close combat maniac" is not undeserved, but is forged by the blood of countless enemies.

Reality is always cruel and ruthless. Even though Archduke Leo tried his best to help, Matthews still couldn't defeat Benjamin with swordsmanship.

At the critical moment of life and death, he had to take extraordinary measures, which ran counter to the close combat philosophy he had always advocated. However, struggling on the brink of life and death, Matthews had no other choice, as he knew that only one person could survive this duel.

After careful consideration, Matthews formulated his battle strategy: to fight a protracted battle, to consume the physical strength and endurance of both sides, and ultimately test each other's willpower. He was also ready to engage in hand-to-hand combat when necessary, to compete with the most primitive wild power. He firmly believed that no matter how the battle developed, victory would eventually belong to him.

Since the duel has been postponed for ten days, Matthews will have extra time to hone his fast sword skills.

Grand Duke Leo promised to teach him several extremely powerful and domineering skills of Leo's sword: Seven Stars One Point, Defeat the Big with the Small, and Burn Both Sides to Death.

Seven Stars and One Point can make his defense more indestructible and create opportunities for him to make a fatal blow; while using the small to fight the big and destroying both sides are the secret weapons to find survival opportunities in desperate situations, or even to turn the tables.

Although these sword skills were few in number and not complicated combos, Matthews understood that this was the limit of what he could master in the remaining time.

He also fully understood Archduke Leo's intention in teaching him these special sword techniques - in the upcoming decisive battle, they might be the key to his turning the tide.

Under the guidance of Grand Duke Leo, Matthews devoted all his energy to learning and mastering new sword techniques. He practiced tirelessly, striving to integrate these sword techniques seamlessly into his own combat system.

When practicing sword fighting with the Archduke, Matthews directly put on the equipment he would use in a life-and-death duel - soft armor and combat gloves. He didn't want the difference in equipment to affect his fighting feeling in actual combat.

He longed to practice these fast sword skills until they became instincts, so that he could perform them naturally in battle and thus exert their maximum effectiveness in the upcoming decisive battle.

Matthews' rock-hard fighting will deeply moved Grand Duke Leo. His extraordinary perseverance, as well as his calm and focused fighting state, shocked even this experienced earth knight.

As time went by, Archduke Leo rekindled his hope for Matthews' duel. He firmly believed that as long as the battle continued, Matthews would be able to defeat Benjamin and win the decisive battle with his tenacity and perseverance.
