Chapter 70: Friends is Made Through Figh
70 Friends is Made Through Figh
Jun Hua put her sword down. In this fight, she didn't need to exert much energy, but she had managed to push Fan Ying back. Her fight usually consists of her fighting as efficient as possible though it's impossible against a stronger opponent like Soujin. For people like Fan Ying, it doesn't require her much energy to spare.
"Thank you for your pointer," Fan Ying clearly feels the chill when the sword is pointed straight to his neck. He doesn't feel any killing intent from Jun Hua, so he knows that she hadn't been serious with the fight just now. Yet, that simple fight has shown him the gap between a general and an ordinary soldier like himself. Jun Hua might be young, but she's talented and strong.
Jun Hua smiled, "Like I said, don't say that I bullied you."
Fan Lanying stared dumbfounded. Their fight didn't last more than a few seconds but it has been enough to defeat her brother. All along, she thought that her brother is strong, but it seems there are a lot of people much stronger than him. The boy in front of her is one of them.
Jun Hua looks towards Fan Lanying. "If you can defeat your brother, you can come to me for sparing."
Fan Lanying nodded. She cannot even defeat her brother and given that Fan Ying is going to go to battlefield again, their skill will widen again. Fan Lanying has never been to battlefield, but she knows that she might not fare well there.
Fan Ying calmed himself down. "Thank you very much Young General Jun. I will be in your care."
Jun Hua nodded."Continue practicing, there will come the time when you can achieve big. You're quite talented."
Hearing such a praise from Jun Hua means that Fan Ying is indeed good. But he didn't let it come to his head as he bowed solemnly.
"Jun Hua, let's go."
"Yes brother," 'Jun Hua' answered. "See you on the test."
"Yes, learn well so that you can pass the test," Fan Lanying waved as the two of them disappear from their sight. She then turned to her brother. "I thought you told me that your skill is on par with father."
Fan Ying laughed awkwardly. Their father is also a general and his skill should be on par with Jun Min but with his defeat against Jun Min, Fan Yin cannot brag anymore. He looks at the wooden sword before him and vowed to continue practicing even harder.
Jun Hua got into the carriages and sit with ease.
"That Fan Ying is not bad, but he's too cautious. Tell Yabei to increase his training. I want him to have a better fighting skill."
"Yes Miss."
Jun Hua leaned back on her chair. Oh right, she still needs to meet with Soujin today.
After returning back to Jun family residence, she eats her lunch before going to the training hall. Soujin is there as usual, but Yan and Ming Hui hadn't arrived yet.
"You still come back? I thought you will only return when you can beat me," Soujin looks at Jun Hua and said.
"Then I will beat you today," Jun Hua answered.
Before long the sound of metal clashing can be heard from the training hall. The two of them use real swords, but they don't afraid since both one of them could easily control their body and they know when the other party might hurt if they didn't stop. After almost half an hour of fighting, finally Jun Hua cannot keep up because her energy has been drained fully.
"Your skill is improving," Soujin said. "Before, you cannot even last a few minutes."
"That was already a long time ago," Jun Hua countered.
"Both of you should stop fighting," Yan said with solemn face, "With the two of your skill, now I can't even escape from you."
Ming Hui laughed. They have just arrived and Yan already make such a remark. It's not like the two of them always bullied her brother. Well, most of the time they did.
"If you want to, I will accompany you," Jun Hua laughed.
"No thank you."
Soujin took a chair and sits down. The other three followed suit. They have become friends for quite some time and gotten used with talking and bantering with each other. Ming Hui health has long improved and she always tags along with Yan every week to this place. Although she didn't do anything much other than talking, she would always come here.
"How's your city development?" Jun Hua asks.
"It's good, I already gain full control and some of the people who support me reside in that area," Yan said happily. "There will be more people coming so maybe I will need more land."
"The emperor won't agree."
"He will, later," Yan said with confidence.
Jun Hua laughed. "Of course he will, this country will need a lot of money and the best source of money is Young Noble Han."
"You still owed me, Yan," Soujin added.
Yan face darkened. "I don't owe you anything! I have already allowed you to eat in the restaurant."
"It's not enough."
Looking at the two honorable people in this kingdom acting like rogue, Jun Hua laughed. By her side, Ming Hui also laughed because the banter between Soujin and Yan never ended.
"How this two could become study partner? All they do is fight," Jun Hua said.
"Oh, that one," Ming Hui smiled. "When they're young, they meet with each other by chance and Soujin uttered a remark to Third Brother. I don't remember what it is, but it caused both of them to fight. In the end, their parents force them to become study partner in order to ease their relationship."
Jun Hua laughed. That kind of first meeting would surely imprint in their mind deeply. With Soujin harsh mouth, there's no way the hooligan Yan can stand it. But really, the two of their mouth is capable to get people on their nerve.
"Now that they have grown up, that habit hadn't disappeared yet?" Jun Hua feels amused.
"It seems so."
Just like that, the day passed as they joke around and laugh.
