Of course, Xia Duo did not cheat. Although he was an incarnation, if he changed his body, he would do better. However, since Beno said that he cheated, he could also let the other party see what real cheating is like.

With this in mind, Shado cast another spell to send Beno's sword, which had fallen to the ground, back to the opponent. At the same time, he said provocatively:

"Are you coming again?"

"Come again!"

Beno, who had realized that he had said something wrong, was of course unwilling to let go of such an opportunity and immediately agreed. He admitted that he had underestimated the enemy just now, but he would definitely make this damn human pay the price for his arrogance!

After calming down, Beno gradually slowed down his breathing and his eyes became extremely sharp. However, he did not rush to attack, but stared at Xia Duo's every move.

With such high concentration, Beno could clearly see the trajectories of the visible wind and even the invisible elements and the strings of the magic network in the Golden Autumn Courtyard. It was only then that he noticed that his opponent was not in a fighting state at all.

Is this so powerful that it no longer needs any external environmental advantages, or is it that the other party is really using magic to cheat?

For a moment, the pressure in Neno's heart increased greatly. Just now, his uncle did not raise any objection to the result of the first battle, indicating that the opponent was probably not cheating with spells, so he was powerful.

But what kind of strength can ignore all external environmental advantages? No swordsman master can do this, especially if his swordsmanship is not inferior to that of the master!

…

Just like that, time passed by minute by minute. Xia Duo looked at Beno, who was three steps away, and his expression became more and more solemn, but there was no movement on his hands.

Could it be that he could already win without fighting by relying on his momentum?

Obviously the elf in front of him would not let him pass easily. Just when Xia Duo was thinking about how long the other party would have to wait, his eyes suddenly lit up.

It's a spell!

But it is not a spell cast by a mage in the usual sense, but a spell caused by sword skills!

Generally speaking, pure swordsmanship cannot trigger spells no matter how good they are, but the training sword of the Elf Swordsinger is a specialized magic sword that can be used as a spell-casting medium to cast spells.

However, there is a reason why swordsingers are not considered true mages in elven society. Their mastery of spells is very low and they can only use specific sword skills to cast them.

It is similar to a normal mage's spells and equipment to assist in spell casting, except that their auxiliary spell casting methods are more rigid. Only the master of the Sword Singer can truly integrate spells into sword skills and adapt to changes.

This requires a sufficient understanding of magic. At this point, there is not much difference between Master Sword Song and ordinary mages.

But even so, in front of a mage who is good at spell duels, the little bit of spell understanding that can be made up for later is no better than the ordinary axe.

Therefore, in the elven world, Master Swordsong may be respected and even awe-stricken by the mages, but the top power of the elves will never be them.

…

The moment Xia Duo saw the light, he immediately understood the other party's intention, which was simply to prevent him from looking at each other. If he opened his eyes, he would be interfered with casting spells, and if he closed his eyes, he would be unable to deal with the constantly attacking magic sword.

Even though it's just a training sword, it's still lethal when poked.

This method is very effective for ordinary mages. When combined with a magic sword with spell-breaking effects such as [Blade of Veto], it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a sure kill.

Normally, a mage who is incapable of melee combat can consider running away or lying down at this time.

But Xia Duo is not an ordinary mage, and he is not incompetent in close combat.

After understanding the other party's intentions, he decided to teach the other party a lesson, whether it was magic or swordsmanship.

So he closed his eyes. Although doing so was a bit redundant for the avatar, wasn't this what the other party wanted to see?

Sure enough, the next moment, he heard the sound of the sword cutting through the air, and there were multiple and chaotic sounds, attacking him from all directions.

This is also a spell effect.

However, Xia Duo did not make any counterattack. Instead, he allowed Beno to do what he wanted. He just raised his hand and drew out his sword, and the blade traced the trajectory of the void and penetrated a string of magic net. Although he did not deliberately cast a spell, the magic sword itself also It was enough to provoke feedback from the Magic Network.

He did not use the swordsinger's spell-casting swordsmanship, so the sword blade only brought out a little elemental turbulence, which looked like a special effect of the sword itself.

Because he was the defender, and even though he did not have an absolute advantage in strength, Xia Duo was still able to strike first and hit the balance point of the opponent's sword accurately just like the first time.

But this time, Beno, who was on guard, changed his moves at the moment when the two things collided. At the same time, he also realized that his opponent had extraordinary combat intuition. Even if his vision and hearing were disturbed, he could still avoid it. Affected to normal combat.

This made Beno envious, but also put more pressure on him. Then he kept making moves, but Xia Duo was able to resolve them every time, and the opponent chose the timing of each sword attack so well. The angle was also so subtle that he had to admit that if the two sides switched positions, he might not be able to respond so wonderfully.

"Damn it! Didn't uncle say that this human just narrowly defeated Master Fres? How could he be so difficult to deal with!"

At this moment, Beno's heart was filled with darkness. He was still drawing out his sword mechanically, and his offensive was still fierce. Perhaps from the outside world, he was close to gaining the upper hand, but only he who was in the middle of the battle knew that he might never be able to win. There is no way to break through the opponent's defense.

It was obvious that both sides were using the training swords given to guests in the Golden Autumn Courtyard, but in the hands of the human being, it looked like an ancient divine sword with perfect combat elements.

How can we defeat the opponent!

However, what Beno didn't know was that Xia Duo was actually not easy either. He had been able to defeat Frese in Everesca before, and there was some moisture in it.

First of all, he went to the main body at that time, and his physical fitness was stronger than Fres in all aspects. In a pure swordsmanship duel, he could always beat the slow with fast and the weak with strength. Fres was no match for him.

But that doesn't mean Freese is a bad swordsman.

For the opponent to win the title of "Swordsman Master" in Yeerlan, he naturally has extremely superb swordsmanship. However, Frese was not born as a swordsinger, but a real mage, and a senior mage at that.

In the elven world, he is second only to the High Mage.

Come to think of it, the title of "Master of Swordsmanship" is somewhat watery.

Therefore, although Xia Duo believed that he had understood the true meaning of swordsmanship, in actual combat, he could not guarantee that he would be able to defeat a swordsmanship master without using spells or his body.

At this moment, Beno's swordsmanship can indeed be said to be superb, and at this moment, Xia Duo is neither the real body nor prepared to suppress it with magic, so naturally he cannot be too relaxed.
