Chapter 369: A Duel Between Dual-Blade Styles
Why did the Favonius swordsmanship created by the Lion of Light fall into obscurity? Was it because of the high requirement of wielding a greatsword with one hand?
Not at all.
In the five hundred years that followed, there were indeed people capable of wielding a greatsword single-handedly, yet none of them could learn the swordsmanship left behind by Arundolyn.
Because... the Favonius style he created was a dual-wielding art.
That’s right—the greatsword in the right hand represented relentless offense, while the longsword in the left embodied endless defense.
With two blades in hand, the Lion of Light, Arundolyn, was nearly invincible!
This was also one of the reasons why the system forcibly switched Bai Luo’s class to the Black-Clad Swordsman.
Dual blades should fight dual blades!
"Fight my ass!"
Bai Luo is a dual-wielding swordsman, but his style used two longswords.
Meanwhile, Arundolyn wielded a greatsword in one hand and a longsword in the other.
Just the greatsword in his right hand alone was enough to suppress both of Bai Luo’s blades.
It was completely unreasonable!
With both swords drawn, Arundolyn’s combat ability skyrocketed.
If Bai Luo could freely switch between all his classes, defeating him would be no problem at all. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
But right now, restricted to the Black-Clad Swordsman, he was clearly at a disadvantage.
Previously, he could still create openings with Dark Sword Assault to counterattack.
But now, with a Favonius longsword in Arundolyn’s left hand, all of Bai Luo’s attacks were perfectly blocked.
With no other choice, Bai Luo clenched his teeth and unleashed the ultimate move he had been holding back.
Whoosh!
The heavy Ferrous Shadow came crashing down—but struck nothing.
Before the blade could land, Bai Luo had already transformed into countless sword projections and vanished from sight.
Sword shadows slashed in from all directions. Arundolyn instinctively raised his Favonius longsword, only to realize he couldn’t block them all.
As he tried to retreat, the sword projections pursued him relentlessly, as if locked onto him.
A total of sixteen slashes—each individually weak, but together forming a considerable amount of damage.
In an instant, streaks of blood appeared across Arundolyn’s gleaming armor.
In contrast was the hint of astonishment in his eyes.
Like Rostam, he had no idea how much time had passed outside.
But Bai Luo’s technique truly caught him off guard.
Has swordsmanship evolved to such flashy levels?
Flashy or not, the damage it dealt was enough for Arundolyn to take it seriously.
The moment he saw Bai Luo land, Arundolyn immediately lifted his Ferrous Shadow and swept it horizontally.
He knew he couldn’t allow Bai Luo to use that technique again.
Otherwise, even he would be worn down to death.
Boom—
Bai Luo barely managed to block the heavy strike, even with both hands.
This time, Arundolyn did not follow up with his greatsword as before.
Instead, he raised the Favonius longsword in his left hand and slashed toward Bai Luo’s head.
Clang—
A glassy, translucent blade intercepted the strike at just the right moment, resolving the immediate crisis.
Fortunately, when Arundolyn used his longsword, the strength behind his greatsword lessened.
Otherwise, Bai Luo wouldn’t have had the chance to draw this second blade.
"You also use two swords?"
Glancing at the two weapons in Bai Luo’s hands, Arundolyn’s interest was immediately piqued.
At first, he had noticed the second sword on Bai Luo’s back, but hadn’t paid it much attention.
Though their setups were different—his being greatsword and longsword—this was the first time in many years that he had encountered someone else who wielded two blades.
"Maybe someday I’ll even use three."
Struggling to hold back Arundolyn’s strength, Bai Luo still found time to quip.
But that remark wasn’t just a joke—if he ever got the chance to obtain Zoro, he really could use a three-sword style.
"Hahaha~ if you could use three swords, you might actually be able to beat me."
"I can beat you even now!"
Seizing the moment of distraction, Bai Luo used a move he had secretly learned from Rostam—
A low blow.
But Arundolyn was, after all, Rostam’s close friend. The moment Bai Luo lifted his leg, he had already guessed what the young man intended to do.
Instead of dodging, he skillfully clamped Bai Luo’s leg between his own.
Judging by the precision of his timing, he had clearly dealt with this kind of trick many times before.
With his right leg trapped, Bai Luo didn’t struggle immediately.
Using the restraint as leverage, he withdrew both swords and leaned his body backward.
While avoiding Arundolyn’s sweeping strike, he raised his left leg and kicked upward into his opponent’s chin.
Without the boost from the Dancer’s Boots, the power of the flying kick was reduced.
But even so, being struck like that forced even Arundolyn to stumble back several steps.
Taking the opportunity, Bai Luo broke free from the hold, but didn’t rush to get up.
A fiery red glow appeared around his wrist, and a crimson circle manifested behind Arundolyn.
As if perfectly predicted, just as the skill activated, Arundolyn stepped into the circle.
He never expected that Bai Luo—who had no Vision—could use an ability similar to an elemental skill.
Caught off guard, he was blasted into the air by surging molten magma.
Dark Sword Assault!
A single Dark Sword Assault boosted Bai Luo’s damage, followed immediately by another Fourfold Slash.
The sword projections from Fourfold Slash struck Arundolyn precisely as he hit the ground.
But Bai Luo did not use the second phase of the skill to jump in.
Sonic Impact!
Before Arundolyn could fully recover from being launched by the molten eruption, Bai Luo chained another knockback.
As the distance between them shrank to zero under Sonic Impact’s force, Bai Luo moved.
Starburst Stream!
At point-blank range, the full barrage of Starburst Stream rained down upon Arundolyn’s body.
The dazzling flashes of blade light were so intense they nearly forced him to shut his eyes.
Yet relying on his vast combat experience, even without seeing Bai Luo, Arundolyn could still determine his position.
His Favonius longsword thrust forward decisively but struck nothing.
The moment he noticed the movement, Bai Luo had already activated the second phase of Fourfold Slash, teleporting to a sword shadow remnant behind him.
Before the skill fully expired, he activated it again, reappearing behind the marked Arundolyn.
The slashes of Starburst Stream carved a brilliant V-shaped trail through the trial space.
Twin blades sweeping, crossing downward, rising upward—chaotic yet precise strikes relentlessly carved into Arundolyn’s body.
Flesh and blood flew asunder, even exposing stark white bone.
"Gah—!"
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Arundolyn gathered the last of his strength and struck Bai Luo as he turned.
Trailing a streak of blade light, Bai Luo was sent flying like a meteor.
"It’s not over yet!"
The Dark Repulser stabbed fiercely into the ground, dragging a long trench behind it.
And in Bai Luo’s right hand, the Elucidator still held one final slash.
Starburst Stream—Finale!
Carrying that last streak of blade light, Bai Luo charged at Arundolyn at a speed even faster than Sonic Impact.
Slash—
The blade light drew a straight line—from where Bai Luo stood, all the way to Arundolyn’s heart.
The heart of the Lion of Light, Arundolyn, was completely shredded by that strike.
