Chapter 171: Sword and Mace Battle

The reason why mace weapons can restrain swords and other weapons.

This is because mace weapons are short and blunt weapons of the hard whip type.

When colliding with a sword, the greater the force of the sword's cutting, the greater the probability of it breaking with the sound.

Especially the sharp edge of a sword, which is what the sword relies on the most, can easily create a gap when it collides with a mace.

Even the armor-piercing Tang horizontal sword would suffer heavy losses when clashing with mace soldiers.

Moreover, the design of the grooves on the four sides of the mace and its bamboo-joint shape greatly restrain some of the technical requirements of swords.

Comparing the two, the advantage of the Chiyan is that it is lighter than the mace and flying shield, and its slashing speed is faster.

If the opponent wants to intercept it, it will be a great test of your proficiency in using the mace weapon.

The disadvantage is that even if the mace weapon cannot be stopped, once it is replaced, an ordinary person will be killed or disabled if hit by it.

A mace is a ferocious blunt weapon that can smash a person to death even through armor.

……

now
Song Ren took the stage again, and the heat that had subsided in the venue became hot again.

After Su Chaharcan came on stage, he took the initiative to speak: "Master Dong, this is a friendly competition between us, so can we stop here?"

If he hadn't boasted in front of Goddess Rushuang, he would have given up on entering the ring.

In addition to being extremely wary of Song Ren's strength, another point is that he is afraid that Song Ren's methods are too cruel.

Both opponents died.

Su Chaharcan could understand that in the competition field, swords, fists and feet were all blind.

But the murderous aura that Song Ren exudes is no joke.

Although Su Chaharcan is illiterate, he is definitely not stupid. On the contrary, he has high vision and is the kind of person who appears foolish while being wise.

Although he got a bargain on weapons, he is a shameless and pragmatic person.

It is better to speak up for some things in advance so that even if you lose, you will not die on the spot.

Instead of being like the chicken man in the basin before, who decided the outcome and life and death as soon as he opened his mouth.

As a result, he was beheaded by Song Ren with a single knife.

Su Chaharcan is different. He just wants to show off in front of the goddess. He doesn't risk his life for it.

In response to Su Chaharcan's request, Song Ren also nodded and responded: "Okay."

Su Chaharcan immediately licked his face, clasped his fists and praised: "Master Dong is so generous!"

Song Ren: “…”

……

The bell outside the stadium rang again.

The referee also stood up and raised his hand to announce the start of the game.

After the curtain of this round of competition officially opened, Su Chaharcan's face suddenly became solemn.

Although he is usually cheerful and playful, he seems like a madman.

But when it's time to be serious, he can still be serious.

What's more, in his eyes, Master Dong is also a respectable opponent who deserves his serious treatment.

So, Su Chaharcan adopted the most serious defensive posture.

When using mace weapons against the enemy, one must be extremely cautious.

Song Ren held the knife in his reverse hand, crouched down, and still started with a waist strike!

With powerful explosive force, his body rushed out like a tiger or leopard!

Just like the previous fight, Chi Yan's blade violently knocked open the scabbard, creating a long spark.

A narrow streak of red light streaked across the sky! Su Chaharcan was startled!
Even though he had seen it once outside the arena, when he was there in person, the domineering and precise ultimate slash still made him feel terrified.

Asshole, we agreed to stop there!
How come one move is a sure-kill skill!
Fortunately, both his experience and talent are at a very high level.

At the moment when Song Ren was about to strike with his waist, he retreated several steps in succession, creating the last bit of free time to block the flying shield mace.

Clang! ! !
The sound of metal colliding was so loud that it was even deafening!
Su Chaharcan was also frightened by this domineering slashing force and retreated repeatedly.

But a look of surprise appeared on his face.

With such a strong slashing force, the knife must be...

what!
Not broken?!
Su Chaharcan had just stabilized his body when he couldn't help but frown.

Then it became clear again: it was the back of a knife that was used!
The back of the Tang horizontal sword is wider and thicker than ordinary swords, and much harder than the blade.

After the previous slash, Song Ren flipped his wrist at the last moment!
The flying shield mace was knocked away by the back of the knife!

Su Chaharcan was extremely talented. After he stood firm, he immediately swung the flying shield mace with great force, sweeping it towards Song Ren who was rushing forward again.

Song Ren raised his sword to block and placed his left hand on the blade.

The destructive power of the flying shield mace was completely dissipated through the palm of his hand.

Su Chaharcan had a very sharp eye. He used the joint of his mace to catch the back of the knife and pulled it back with great force!
Song Ren was pulled by Chi Yan, and subconsciously leaned forward.

At this time, the tip of the Flying Shield Mace had already bypassed the blade. Although it was not sharp, it was rushing towards Song Renzhong's wide-open chest with ferocious momentum!
A hint of coldness appeared between Song Ren's brows.

He decisively abandoned Chi Yan and grabbed the front part of the mace with his backhand.

Mace weapons are blunt weapons without blades, known for their destructive power but never for their sharpness.

The moment Song Ren grabbed the mace with his right hand, the falling red goose was picked up by his left hand and held in the palm of his hand!

With the mace in hand, Chi Yan changed hands.

When Song Ren grabbed the mace, he immediately pulled it diagonally downward with force. This time it was Su Chaharcan's turn to be caught off guard and pushed forward.

The difference is that Chi Yan’s sword is already in the air!

The sharp tip of the sword was only one centimeter away from his neck.

Everything stops here!
The thick evil spirit infected Su Chaharcan's whole body almost instantly, and he felt as if he was struck by lightning!
Cold sweat broke out!
Su Chaharcan lowered his eyes, staring closely at the red sword in front of his neck, and said quickly: "Master Dong, calm down, calm down!"

The murderous aura that Song Ren burst out in an instant was completely suppressed the next moment!

He quickly sheathed his sword and politely clasped his fists: "Thank you for letting me."

Su Chaharcan then breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Master Dong did not get too excited and really cut himself off.

Su Chaharcan was truly convinced by Song Ren: "Master Dong, you are awesome! I lost this game."

Song Ren just smiled politely and didn't say much.

Su Chaharcan took the initiative to come over and whispered:

"Master Dong, I am convinced by you, but you have to be careful of Zhao Wuji."

"This person is extremely dangerous."

Song Ren: "Okay, thank you for the reminder."

Su Chaharcan was obviously in a good mood.

He took out a large silver note from his pocket with a smile, handed it to Song Ren and said, "Master Dong, please accept this as a small thank you for sparing my life just now."

Song Ren was about to refuse, but when he saw the denomination of the banknote out of the corner of his eye, he immediately put it in his arms tacitly.

Fifty thousand taels of silver!

This is really a 'small' thank you gift!
It's simply extremely luxurious.
