Female NovelAs Frank looked up to meet Silverbell's eyes, he said quietly, "No, Lady Silverbell. It's our first encounter, just as this is my firsttime hearing about the Martial Alliance."
"The Martial Alliance." Silverbell spaced out for a moment and started explaining for some reason, "The South Sea Four foundedthe alliance, and only notable sects or factions in Draconia are offered a place..."
It was only at the end that she came to her senses, frowning as she wondered why she would explain the Martial Alliance tosome punk she did not know.
Swish!
She whipped her sword, speaking quietly, "Less talking. Since you're representing Sage Lake Sect for their trial, you must beprepared. Show me what you have and whether the Sage Lake Sect is worth the alliance's time!"novelbin
"Go, go, Frankie!" Maron cheered for Frank with fake enthusiasm, waving his phone at Frank at the same time to warn himagainst pulling anything funny.
Frank was not actually going to do it—if he were to be honest, he would like to see how much Silverbell had improved, as he hadnot met the brat for a decade.
Turning toward one of the Sage Lake Sect apprentices nearby, he held out his hand. "Lend me your sword.""Sir.?" The apprentice was taken aback and turned toward Maron.
Maron nodded—he certainly wanted Frank to win.
Frank caught the sword thrown at him and calmly walked up to Silverbell without assuming any stance."You're testing your skill with a sword against mine?" Silverbell frowned.
Her specialty was the sword, and Frank was challenging her with what she was best at?!
"Come at me," Frank said and stopped talking.
As he strode up, he slowly remembered the footwork and strokes of the strongest sword style of Mystic Sky Sect: the WanderingNephrite.
The fact that he did not assume a stance left Silverbell frowning further.
"Such an amateur. Whatever, time to crush your dreams," she said and leapt forward, unleashing the first strike.Her sword hummed as a deafening sword beam shot away, aimed squarely at Frank's shoulders.
Clang!
But while Silverbell presumed it was over with her first stroke, she was left stunned to see Frank parrying her beam.
And when she was left stunned, Frank moved, leaping forward at breakneck speed and leaning forward so much that he lookedas if he would teeter and fall.
It would take a trained eye to see that he was using pure vigor to pad his feet, and he would never actually fall.
At the same time, he swung his sword straight for Silverbell's kneecaps.
"Huh?" Silverbell was surprised by hisopening stroke—where had helearned such a move? She had neverencountered anything like that! Thecontent is on noveldrama.org! Readthe latest chapter there!
