Arriving at the gate of Akatsuki Academy, the moment you are about to cross the gate.
A sudden sense of oppression fell on Jiang Li.
This oppressive feeling seemed to freeze time and space itself, violently oppressing his internal organs and making his body tremble continuously.
Arisuin Nagi's level as a martial artist is relatively average, so there is no way to find out.
There is an extremely terrifying aura hovering in this dead and silent academy, which is like a haunted house in the mountains.
And it’s the aura of a swordsman.
Far superior to all the swordsmen Jiang Li has seen so far, no one can match him.
If there is anyone who can rival him in martial arts aura, it is the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows.
His heart is shaking violently.
Is it fear?
Don't know.
He doesn't have time to care about that now.
He raised his head and stared at the roof of the teaching building with terrifying eyes.
The pure white woman stood there, as if she was integrated with the world itself. There was no breath coming from her, and no one would notice her figure.
Jiang Li saw her in an instant.
But Arisuin Nagi subconsciously ignored her. It wasn't until he saw Jiang Li's strange reaction that he followed his line of sight and saw the woman who looked like a Valkyrie.
Immediately afterwards.
Arisuin Nagi's face turned pale.
His face seemed to have completely lost its pigment. He didn't know what he was thinking of, and there was fear visible to the naked eye in his eyes.
"Impossible...how could it be...why is she here!?"
Fear shook Arisuin Nagi's heart, causing him to scream in disbelief.
He was completely treated as a traitor, and of course he was not informed of the information that 'she' was here.
The Valkyrie stepped forward.
She stepped out from the roof of the teaching building, and her figure landed on the ground as lightly as catkins. The moment her feet hit the ground, there was no sound, and there was no sound when she moved.
"Wonderful tactics."
Her moving eyes ignored Arisuin Nagi, and her eyes were completely focused on Jiang Li.
"Even I have to praise you for being able to come up with such countermeasures under the suppression of Murasaki Nomiya's abilities."
There was a hint of admiration in her eyes, and she praised his tactics in a light voice.
She actually heard the conversation between the two at the school gate.
"If I weren't here, you could completely destroy this place to pieces, and the One-Armed Sword Master wouldn't be able to stop you. It's a pity that you are a little unlucky."
It's a pity that I met her here.
Her words conveyed this meaning.
"We're running away, Jiang Li!"
Seeing her approaching figure, Arisuin Nagi's expression suddenly changed.
He summoned the dagger-shaped spiritually-equipped Dark Hermit without hesitation, and then stabbed the knife into the ground.
"If you want to run away, run away alone."
But just then.
The trembling voice reached his ears, causing him to immediately cast an incredulous look.
What is he talking about?
As long as they sink into the shadow space now, even that woman will not be able to catch up. It is entirely possible for them to escape!
But suddenly, Jiang Li's expression caught his eye.
"He's...laughing?"
That's right.
Jiang Li's whole body was trembling, including his limbs and internal organs. Under the terrifying power of the sword, every cell in his body was clamoring for him to escape.
Otherwise, you will definitely die!
But only.
His heart became more excited than ever before!
That's right.
He was indeed trembling.
But it was definitely not a tremor of fear, but a tremor of excitement!
"Aren't you going to run away?"
The Valkyrie has already arrived in front of the two of them, and the distance between them is only twenty meters.
"With your level, you should be able to understand the difference in strength between each other. In that case, why not escape?"
Arisuin Nagi was so frightened that he took a few steps back, just like a mouse seeing a cat.
But unlike this, Jiang Li's eyes became more intense than ever before!
"Why run away?"
Jiang Li asked about the other party instead.
"You are very talented. It would be a pity to die here."
She didn't hide her thoughts and told him very straightforwardly.
"If you leave now, I don't have to pursue you."
"Really?"
Jiang Li nodded clearly, "You are such a good person!"
"..."
The Valkyrie's eyes flickered slightly.
Since her hands were stained with blood more than ten years ago, no one has said that she is a good person.
"The unwillingness to take away the possibilities and lives of future generations is enough to prove that you are a good person."
Jiang Li closed his eyes.
But at the same time, he slowly raised the spiritual equipment in his hand.
Then he opened his eyes.
As if he was brewing something, his eyes became indomitable, and there was only a burning desire to fight in them, without the slightest thought of retreating.
"But, the world's strongest swordsman is right in front of me, so there's no reason for me to run away!"
The object on which he projects his fighting spirit.
It is the Valkyrie-like swordsman opposite.
——The strongest swordsman in the world!
This is the name given to her!
The undeniable number one in the world!
At the same time.
It is also the goal that Jiang Li must surpass no matter what in this life!
Now that you have seen me, is there any reason to retreat and run away?
If he runs away now, how can he surpass him?
The power he has been pursuing all his life is right in front of him. If he escapes here, the ideal he has always insisted on will become empty talk!
Of course, these are just beautiful words.
In the final analysis, there is only one reason.
——He wants to fight this woman!
No matter what, I have to fight this woman!
No one who comes today can dissuade him, he is so eager to fight with this woman!
Arisuin Nagi couldn't help but be speechless.
This is true.
After all, isn't that what a swordsman is?
Whether it’s Jiang Li, Ikki, or even countless people who use swords from all over the world, they all aim to be at the top!
And now that the highest peak is right in front of you, how can you not think about conquering it?
"...I was rude."
The Valkyrie was silent for a moment.
Then a second look of appreciation emerged from her eyes.
"You are indeed an excellent swordsman. I shouldn't doubt your fighting spirit."
As she said this, she raised the sword in her right hand.
At the same time, the calmness in her eyes disappeared, and a sharp look emerged from them.
Suddenly, a huge pressure fell on Jiang Li.
It was the oppressive force of the strongest swordsman in the world, and it was the crystallization of her sword energy.
Just the change of thoughts naturally released an aura that could immobilize ordinary people.
"So next, I will use this sword to fight with you!"
She changed her attitude.
There is a fighting spirit in his eyes.
That's respect for your opponent.
"What you want!"
Jiang Li resisted the strongest sword force in the world with his own momentum, holding the spiritual equipment tightly with both hands, his eyes full of excitement but solemn will.
