This is Gran's summoned creature. Without his order, the Black Knight will not act and will just watch Xia Yi silently.
Xia Yi felt that there was nothing under the pitch-black armor, which was extremely strange.
"Your Highness, have you ever heard of such a legend?"
"What legend?"
"A long time ago, there was a human being who was a rare genius in the world. In order to pursue the limits of martial arts, he embarked on a journey around the world. In order to break through his own limits, he constantly challenged powerful enemies from all directions." Gran explained.
Xia Yi was stunned for a moment.
Wait, why does this plot seem familiar?
"After challenging countless powerful enemies and becoming a legend, this human finally realized one thing - as a human, there are limits."
"..."
"Although he is a unique genius, no matter how hard he tries, he cannot reach the realm of the higher species. This is the shackles brought by the human body. However, God gave this human a chance. In an ancient relic, this human found a suit of armor. This armor has infinite possibilities and can make him surpass humans. However, the dormant armor needs to be awakened again, and the price is the life of a strong man."
"Could it be..."
Xia Yi seemed to understand.
"That's right. This human abandoned his body, awakened the dormant armor, attached his soul to the armor, lost most of his self, but became a nearly immortal being - thus, the immortal Black Knight was born. Throughout history, the Black Knight has signed summoning contracts with many people and has been fighting until now. Your Highness, this should be the most suitable opponent for you, right?"
Grand began to give orders.
"Black Knight, destroy the enemy."
The black knight raised his gauntlet and clenched it. The pitch-black sword was pulled out from the void. A red light appeared under the visor, and the will to fight and kill emerged together.
The dark fighting spirit spread out in all directions, passing over Xia Yi's face, as if it had materialized, forcing her to retreat.
The oppressive feeling at this level even exceeds that of the elite dragon guards.
"Your Highness, you are in trouble," said Grand.
Now, Her Royal Highness the Princess should feel scared, right?
Who told her to use clever tricks?
Next, he didn't even need to use any other magic, he could see the black knight unilaterally defeating the little princess. The objective gap in realm was there.
It is perfect for thwarting the arrogance of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
"The Black Knight has abandoned most of his ego and turned into a pure machine pursuing martial arts. Even most of the fourth-level elite dragon guards are no match for him."
Xia Yi lowered her head and her body began to tremble slightly.
Grand couldn't help laughing.
Her Royal Highness the Princess's behavior shows that she is already scared. Well, facing a monster like this, anyone would retreat.
"Great, this is great!! This is exactly what I want!!"
Xia Yi's hand holding the holy sword began to tremble, and an intense fighting spirit appeared in her body.
It turned out that she was shaking not because of fear, but because of excitement.
She felt her blood boiling and her soul trembling.
The holy sword also responded to Xia Yi, and its light became more and more dazzling.
"Come on, Black Knight, use all your strength to defeat me, make me despair, make me frustrated! Use your sword to make me surrender!!"
Xia Yi's sword intent surged, even forcing back the Black Knight's fighting spirit.
Feeling the sword intent, the black knight also became excited and roared like a wild beast. Then he swung his black sword and smashed it towards Xia Yi like a mountain.
Xia Yi lowered his center of gravity and held the holy sword on his body. He did not choose to retreat, but took the attack head-on.
"Not enough, this is not enough, Black Knight, let me enjoy it a little more, this is not enough for me to go all out! Is this the limit of your ability?"
The Black Knight launched a violent attack, but Xia Yi actually blocked it all.
Grand was stunned.
This scene was so shocking. A black knight nearly three meters tall and a white-haired loli were fighting back and forth in close combat...
Moreover, the Black Knight’s realm is much higher.
Your Highness, is this open?
44 Isn’t this a kind of…
The Black Knight wielded the sword in a wild and sweeping manner, totally unlike an ordinary swordsman. He even had no rules at all. He swung the black sword like a violent weapon, infused it with fighting spirit, and smashed it down fiercely.
If it were an ordinary soldier, facing this berserker-like attack, he would have been smashed into pieces.
But Xia Yi used the holy sword to resist the attack head-on.
In the past, when the human race was a sword master, it would definitely be unbearable.
It's different now.
Her physical body is that of a dragon.
The physical strength of the dragon clan is among the best in the dragon clan.
Whether it is defense ability or magic resistance ability, it is outstanding.
It is precisely because of this body that Xia Yi’s strength has reached a new level.
She continued to take the Black Knight's attacks head-on.
Every time the swords collided, her whole body would tremble and her arms would go numb.
This feeling constantly stimulated the little princess's nerves.
She felt that she had not had such a satisfying battle with an equally powerful opponent for a long time. This gave her great satisfaction. She was immersed in the pleasure brought by the battle lock and was simply having too much fun!
"Black Knight, I'm going to start my counterattack!"
Xia Yi put on a completely new posture.
The defensive stance just now was transformed into an offensive stance, with the tip of the holy sword facing the black knight.
The Black Knight wanted to continue using force to suppress.
This time, Xia Yi did not meet the attack head-on, but made a bolder change and chose to dodge.
If you maintain an offensive posture and dodge but fail, you will definitely not have time to return to defense and will suffer huge damage.
But in battle, gambling is very necessary.
With high risk comes high reward.
Maybe you have always been playing it safe, and if others try their best and win the bet, then you will be the one who loses everything.
The Black Knight was certain that he would hit Xia Yi and take away half of her life.
Xia Yi's silver eyes lit up with a faint light, and she dodged the black knight's attack in an extremely thrilling manner.
She won the bet.
The silver-haired loli raised a smile.
"Four instant slashes."
Xia Yi swung the holy sword and slashed out sword energy.
It seems that this is just an extremely ordinary sword technique.
But the next moment, the Black Knight felt that he was facing four enemies.
Launch attacks on yourself from four directions at the same time.
Two fists are no match for four hands. The Black Knight only blocked one ray of sword light and was hit by the other three.
This is one of Xia Yi's famous sword skills.
Control the speed of swinging the sword and release the sword energy, so as to achieve the effect of multiple sword energies attacking together. Facing attacks from multiple directions, the enemy will always reveal flaws.
During the period of the human race's Sword Master, Xia Yi's move was called Three Instant Slashes.
Now with the blessing of dragon blood, it has evolved into a four-instant kill.
Four sword lights flashed, and the sword energy hit the black knight's armor heavily, making a loud noise.
The Black Knight was stunned.
Xia Yi did not miss this opportunity. He raised the holy sword and stabbed it directly into the black knight's armor.
A physical warrior would definitely be hit in the vitals by Xia Yi's direct stab and his life would be taken away.
However, the Black Knight is indestructible.
The armor was blown away by the impact of the sword and fell to the ground. In a very short time, the black knight recovered and stood up again.
"How about it, Black Knight?" Xia Yi said with a smile.
The Black Knight roared toward the sky, obviously even more excited, and the fighting spirit that burst out of his body was even more manic and wild than before!
"This……"
Gran witnessed the fight between Xia Yi and the Black Knight and was shocked.
Although he was a magician, he had little knowledge of the warrior arts.
Like the Black Knight, who abandoned his self-consciousness and focused on exploring martial arts, he was even one level higher than Xia Yi...
With such an absolute advantage, how could he still be defeated by Xia Yi's moves?
The level of performance of Her Royal Highness the Princess is truly unfathomable.
Over the years, Gran knew that Her Royal Highness the Princess was always lazy and had no in-depth research on combat, and she had never touched upon swordsmanship before.
But now in the battle, he has shown excellent intuition, keen judgment, extraordinary courage, and rich experience...
It definitely doesn't mean that you can gain enlightenment by cramming at the last minute or relying on your talent or fighting once or twice.
Only by constantly challenging strong enemies at a relatively weak level can such qualities be developed.
"That's... the holy sword."
