What?! You want me to be the Herrscher of the End?!

I clearly haven't had enough of lying down yet!!!

The face wash is so great, the only downside is that it might make breathing a little difficult, but that's not a big deal.

If he could do it all over again, Bai Mo would still absolutely not stop Alicia.

"You naughty Ellie, you're always trying to trick me!"

"Hey!"

Alicia stuck out her tongue and gently tapped her head with her hand, looking incredibly cute.

"No cuteness allowed!"

Seeing this, Bai Mo rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Ellie used to be very obedient, but lately she's become increasingly naughty. What's going on?

This won't do! We can't even tell who's the king and queen anymore!

We must rebuild our glory!

"I just missed Sakura so much that I couldn't help myself."

"Sakura, you won't blame me, right!"

She grabbed Sakura's arm and shook it for a while, then said, feigning grievance.

"Don't worry, I won't blame you."

Sakura could only smile and shake her head at this.

"By the way, Ellie, is there something you and Aqi brought here today?"

Ying got up and poured Bai Mo a cup of tea, then slowly spoke.

"Thank you, Sister Ying."

"Actually, Gretchen said she wanted to invite Rin over to play today, so we came together. Also, there's something else I'd like to ask you, Sakura-nee."

With a light touch of his tongue, Bai Mo sipped the tea, a delicate fragrance lingering in his mouth, and he squinted his eyes in enjoyment.

However, she didn't actually know how to appreciate tea; she was just imitating what others were doing.

"What is it? If I can help, I certainly won't refuse."

Ying was very happy that Bai Mo had come to her for help.

"It's nothing major, I just wanted Sister Ying to teach me a few moves, I really want to learn a bit more about swordsmanship."

Bai Mo stretched out his hand and made a "C" shape.

Goodness, it's directly pointing to the universe.

"As for sword skills... of course, no problem. However, my teaching will be very difficult, and my path may not be suitable for you, Aqi."

Ying hesitated upon hearing this. It wasn't that she didn't want to teach Bai Mo, but rather that her sword had always been designed for killing and was not meant for public use.

Of course, this is just her own opinion; Bai Mo wouldn't care about so many things.

After all, the way of the sword, in the end, still involves killing. After all, whose sword hasn't been stained with blood? The so-called protection is just some high-sounding excuse.

Of course, if this were peacetime, then let's pretend she didn't say anything.

"I don't care, I want to learn your swordsmanship, Sister Ying!"

Bai Mo shook his head decisively, giving off a feeling that he was determined to stick with you.

"Can....."

"stare....."

"Okay... come with me."

Seeing that she couldn't win the argument with Bai Mo, Ying had no choice but to shake her head and give up. She got up and pulled Bai Mo to the back of the courtyard.

This is a dojo, a place Sakura uses specifically to hone her swordsmanship.

Pushing open the wooden door, the dojo was quite empty inside, with only a few wooden swords and not even any so-called protective gear.

That's understandable, since Sakura doesn't really need these things.

"Sister Sakura, when can we start?"

Bai Mo picked up a wooden sword from the ground and was already quite impatient.

"No rush, we can start once you're ready, Aqi."

"Furthermore, when practicing sword skills, Aqi, you must remember not to bring the Taixu Sword Technique into your practice. Preconceived notions are a major taboo."

"I get it, I get it! It means I have to forget all the other skills for now, right? That's how it's written in novels!"

Bai Mo gave a thumbs up, and after preparing for a while, he signaled to Ying that they could begin.

Seeing this, Ying slowly walked to Bai Mo's side, her expression serious, looking every bit like a strict teacher.

"Today is the first day, so let's learn some basics first, starting with..."

Chapter 247 The So-Called Moment

By noon, the training had lasted for nearly five hours. Bai Mo had performed a simple sword-swinging motion more than 10,000 times.

If it weren't for the power of creation to relieve her muscle soreness, she probably wouldn't even be able to lift a knife.

"I will demonstrate the techniques to break the deadlock. But the true weapon will always reside only in your heart."

Of course, in addition to wielding the sword, Sakura also carefully broke down her sword moves and demonstrated them to Bai Mo several times.

With the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Bai Mo stored all those details in her mind, and could watch them at any time, just like watching a movie, whenever she wanted.

After all, Bai Mo's foundation is quite good, and he can barely keep up with Ying's pace. If it were someone else, it would be absolutely impossible for them to be this fast.

......................

Sweating profusely, mixed with a faint scent of jasmine, Bai Mo lay on the floor of the dojo, panting heavily.

Sakura carefully handed him a cup of tea, but Bai Mo didn't even taste it before swallowing it in one gulp.

To prevent obstruction of vision during training, Bai Mo tied her hair into a neat high ponytail and held a knife in both hands, looking quite dashing.

The white kendo uniform was soaked with sweat, and with each breath, his chest rose and fell, revealing glimpses of a different kind of scenery.

However, since there were no outsiders present, Bai Mo naturally didn't mind.

Although the power of creation can repair muscle damage caused by training, there is still a depletion of physical and mental energy.

"Regarding your swordsmanship talent, Aqi, I can say frankly that you are the most talented person I have ever seen in all these years."

"Relax. If you're tired, take a break. After all, this kind of thing can't be accomplished overnight. A balance between work and rest is the best approach."

Sakura took the empty teacup, refilled it slowly, and then handed it to Bai Mo.

Sakura made no attempt to hide her admiration for Bai Mo, and she was also very grateful that she could pass on this skill.

"It's okay, Sakura-nee, I can hold on a little longer."

The power of creation acted on my body, and a feeling of comfort washed over me, instantly relieving my sore shoulders.

Bai Mo would perform this repair roughly every hour.

Sakura would just watch from the sidelines, occasionally offering a few pointers, and also serving as a sparring partner, exchanging a few moves with Bai Mo.

After resting for a while, the two began a new round of training.

Just like now, the two of them, each holding a wooden sword, proceeded cautiously, watching each other closely, trying to find a weakness in each other so as to defeat each other in one move.

Time passed slowly, and the two probed each other without making a real attack.

This was undoubtedly the most difficult time for Bai Mo.

After all, Sakura was far superior to her in terms of both skill and experience. Soon, Sakura was the first to discover Bai Mo's weakness, and thus drew her long sword!

"All phenomena are shrouded in ignorance!"

Sa!

A flash of cold light arrived, and the long sword in Bai Mo's hand was instantly knocked away. The speed was so fast that it even left an afterimage. Bai Mo only saw Ying's fingers twitch slightly and did not catch the whole movement.

The so-called "moment" is nothing more than a miracle that can only be revealed in the instant between life and death.

But for Sakura, she had long since mastered this skill.

Bangdang......

The longsword fell to the ground, and when looked at again, its blade was covered in cracks, demonstrating just how swift the attack had been.

Bai Mo ignored all of that, because she was still replaying Ying's sword-wielding movements in her mind over and over again. She wanted to find out what was going on and grasp something.

Sakura nodded in satisfaction after seeing it, without intending to disturb her.

Finally, after quite some time had passed, Bai Mo's side made a move.

"Thank you, Sister Ying!"

"Clearly, I've grasped something from meditation," Bai Mo said happily.

If she were asked to imitate Sakura's sword-wielding motion right now, she was confident she could do a pretty good job.

It might really be a matter of talent; anyway, Bai Mo didn't find it difficult at all.

From the time I first held a knife as a child...

"A good speed of comprehension."

"But Aqi, you must always remember to carefully observe the enemy's weaknesses during battle and never be careless. Opportunities are fleeting."

"Discard all distractions, let your heart become one with the blade in your hand, and all you need to do is cut."

Sakura walked up to Bai Mo, patted her on the shoulder, and then said earnestly.

"Don't worry, Sakura-nee, I will definitely not be distracted during the battle."

"Well, then keep it up. Even if you get close to the [moment] state, it's hard to cut off the confusion in your heart. I hope you can do better than me in this regard, Aqi."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo nodded without saying anything more. After all, some things are best kept firmly in mind.

In the following time, Bai Mo also took advantage of the momentum and planned to consolidate the skills he had just mastered.
