Cunning General Si N Chapter 152: Spar

Chapter 152: Spar

Was there sothing he was supposed to say, like ’go’, ’ah’, ’ya’ or ’victory’?

This was more confusing that Si Ning pouted like a child, he had no idea of what to say to make them stop giving him a confused look and start fighting.

"You may comnce the training!" Si Ning raised a brow waiting for them to start.

"General, shouldn’t we use a wooden sword or so sparing stick?" Jiang Ye asked.

Si Ning’s mouth fell, he couldn’t believe that Jiang Ye had no idea it won’t be thrilling if they use wooden swords to fight, it would only look like a child’s play.

"Are you looking down on ?" Jiang ChenMu already picked up a sword with a secured sheath that won’t end up flying away, he took a stance to ready himself to attack.

Yes!

Si Ning clapped once, he was glad that Jiang ChenMu didn’t complain, if he had also made a complaint like Jiang Ye then he might not have a choice than to tell them to fight with a wooden sword because a sword with its sheath was no different from a wooden sword but the reason Si Ning told them to use a sheath was to minimize damage, give off the feeling of them using a real sword to spar and the most important aspect was to reduce the noise of the swords clashing because Si Ning doesn’t want a third party to end up coming to the training area nor does he want the sword clashing to spark up a headache because he only had little sleep for the past two days and he was using the ti he should be resting to be productive before having ti to take a deep long sleep.

Jiang Ye looked a bit confused but seeing Jiang ChenMu’s position also forced him to pick up a sword with its sheath without even checking the balance or size of the sword, he stood firmly before taking a stance to attack Jiang ChenMu.

"Ya!" Jiang ChenMu raised his sword and he ran only for Jiang Ye to run to et him halfway, their sword clashing.

"Ehhhhh..." Si Ning tilted his head after a while, wondering why they both kept pushing with their swords and Jiang Ye that seed stronger to him was having difficulty in pushing Jiang ChenMu back.

Jiang ChenMu twirled suddenly, bent, and gave Jiang Ye a kick on his foot but Jiang Ye was quick to jump and made a three-sixty turn, his foot connected to Jiang ChenMu’s shoulder when he was aiming for the face but Jiang ChenMu was quick to dodge a blow to his face and used the opportunity to raise his sword to slash Jiang Ye on the chest but Jiang Ye turned and t the sword with his.

The spar was more intense than what Si Ning thought that he wasn’t even sitting in a relaxing manner on his chair anymore, he was now sitting at the edge glad that their swords were sheathed if not the way they kept pushing one of their necks should have been cut by now. It was such a bright serious spar and Si Ning could see that Jiang ChenMu was trying to make him see he was capable and a skilled fighter even though he was specialized in archery and was still young so Si Ning never expected him to fight on equal ground with Jiang Ye.

"Ya!" Jiang ChenMu yelled.

Their swords kept clashing making so subtle sound, Jiang ChenMu turned thrice and each ti thrusting his sword forward forcing Jiang Ye to back away to avoid the blow and the third ti he swung his sword targeting Jiang Ye’s neck but Jiang Ye suddenly bent backward avoiding the impact but at that mont Jiang ChenMu’s raised his foot to hit Jiang Ye’s exposed abdon and it was too late for Jiang Ye to avoid the blow but he pushed his stomach sideward, avoiding the blow and sorsaulted backward before taking a stance while pointing his sword forward.

What a skill!

It was like watching a real action movie that Si Ning was unable to look away, he doubts he could fight like that and placed it at the back of his mind to avoid sparing even if he got paired with Ah Dai, he must avoid it at all cost. From what he had seen Jiang ChenMu seed to be a good fighter and was pushing Jiang Ye back but Si Ning was confused why soone that was aiming to be his Commander was letting a teenage boy beat him.

It was not only that, Jiang ChenMu seed angry and kept gritting his teeth while Jiang Ye doesn’t seem to be having much difficulty. It was then it occurred to Si Ning that Jiang Ye was holding back.

This fight was nothing but a farce.

When Si Ning realized it made him so annoyed to the extent he wanted to jump and yell at Jiang Ye to get serious but as a General, he had to keep his cool, if it was on the battlefield then he could yell as much as he want but not in the palace because the fight had been going on but their swords clashing wasn’t making so much noise and no one had appeared yet and Si Ning wanted to keep it that way, he doesn’t want to yell out loud and attract anybody at the other side of the training ground fence attention.

"Stop!" Si Ning yelled, he needed them to fight seriously, he watched as they both stopped and Jiang Ye saluted to his sparring partner while Jiang ChenMu looked forced when he also saluted then they both turned to salute him.

Si Ning could see the relief written clearly on Jiang Ye’s face while Jiang ChenMu seed angry that the hand holding the sword was quivering as he quickly hides it behind his back.

First Si Ning pops a grapefruit in his mouth and gestured to Ah Dai as he laid his palm facing upward which Ah Dai placed his hand fan on it while looking confused but the hand fan was what Si Ning wanted, he needed it to point at Jiang Ye.

"Lieutenant Jiang, is it true you want to be a Commander of my army?" Si Ning asked pointing the hand fan at him. He doesn’t have the intention to make Jiang Ye a Commander of his army because it was a great position and if he goes and mobilizes his army one day on the General na to do so deed then Si Ning would be the one to bla even if he had no idea about it. Not that he doesn’t trust Jiang Ye but he doesn’t think he needs another Commander for his army.

"Yes General!" Jiang Ye replied firmly.

"With the way you are swinging that sword then it will take you a hundred years to reach the position of a Captain as you can see being a Commander is still far away!" Si Ning said as he shook his hand fan and narrowed his eyes.

Jiang Ye’s eyes widened. "General but..."

"Fight like you an it, if not you have no reason to stand on that ground and if you don’t want to harm Jiang ChenMu then take up a wooden sword because the way you are fighting Yuan-er can." He paused. "The Second Prince can take you down." He corrected, his expression suddenly turned serious.

"Forgive , General." Jiang Ye fell on his knee.

"So fight seriously and Jiang ChenMu do you object?" Si Ning asked.

"No General." Jiang ChenMu replied, his gaze serious.

"Carry on." Si Ning said. He could see that Jiang ChenMu seed glad that Jiang Ye was going to take him seriously.

Si Ning nodded as he quickly took a sip of water, he almost choked when Jiang ChenMu unsheathed his sword and Jiang Ye did the sa. His heart started to beat faster because he was excited about the fight that was about to unfold before him.
