Sword God in a World of Magic
Chapter 151
The lesson was over faster than Shang had anticipated. He had felt like only a couple of minutes had passed, but, apparently, Shang had fought Astor for nearly three hours.
After the first two fights, Shang hadn't won another one. Astor had perfectly countered all of Shang's attacks after knowing what he could do.
Surprisingly, nearly every fight, Shang felt like he had Astor on the ropes. Astor was always so close to losing every single time.
Yet, for some reason, Astor managed to somehow wiggle out of his disadvantaged state.
At that point, Shang had already committed too much, making it harder for him to resist Astor's offensive.
The closest Shang had gotten was when he had loaded his sword with an Ice Blast. He had struck upwards against Astor's sword, completely destroying the attack.
However, Astor managed to block Shang's killing blow by, ironically, jumping into the attack with his chest. The defenses of his uniform activated, and Shang's attack was stopped.
Sure, that only worked once, but it had stopped Shang's most dangerous attack.
Teacher Loran gave his feedback to all the students, including Shang. This time, teacher Loran had actually seen Shang's swordsmanship, which meant that he could give actual feedback.
Surprisingly, teacher Loran didn't criticize Shang's swordsmanship much.
He said that he could already see an initial fighting style forming, which was a good thing.
He said that Shang obviously preferred a very fast and explosive fighting style and that he should focus on that.
One sentence in particular rang true in Shang's mind.
"Don't focus on your weaknesses. Focus on your strengths and make them even stronger."
Shang's weakness was obviously defense. He had no shield or great weapon that could act as a shield. Because of that, Shang had to parry or evade attacks, which wasn't easy.
Shang could work on his defense, but that might take too much work, and it might even ruin his already established fighting style.
Working on his defenses would essentially count as a plan B. If his opponent managed to get through Shang's speed and dodges, Shang would need to defend himself.
That sounded like a good idea, but there was another way forward.
