"We're back!"

A clear shout came, and Noel and Koushiro looked over. It was Wuming, Kuina, and Zoro who came back together.

Wuming and Guina held hands and acted very friendly. It seemed that Wuming did more than just get Guina back.

Zoro walked in front of the two of them with an awkward look on his face - he was discovered on the way Wuming and Kuina came back.

After being lost for a long time, he finally 'found' Kuina.

After returning, Kuina came to Noel first and apologized:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Noel, for causing you trouble."

"Haha, it's okay."

Noel smiled and waved his hands while secretly giving a thumbs up to Wuming.

Wuming responded with a proud smile, and then indicated with his eyes: Are you okay there?

Noel blinked and changed the gesture to OK: Done.

Seeing the two people's small actions that they thought were hidden but were actually aboveboard, Zoro was speechless. Are you still children?

Koushiro smiled knowingly at this, while Kuina was a little envious.

Kuina said to Koushiro again:

"I'm sorry, Father, for making you worry."

"It's good that you're fine, and it seems that besides that, you have some new gains?"

Koushiro smiled gently, looked at Wuming again, and said.

"Well, Wuming and I became friends."

Mentioning this matter, Guina looked at Wuming and couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.

"Whee!"

Wuming smiled playfully and waved his hand.

Although she was called the eldest sister by all the younger disciples in the Dojo, none of them could be called true friends.

Zoro may be considered half, but more often than not, she just sees him as a challenger and a careless, idiotic brother.

And although she and Wuming only knew each other for a while, and even couldn't understand each other on some issues, they still became true friends who could talk to each other.

On the way back, Kuina shared some developmental troubles and some embarrassing things about Sauron with Wuming, while Wuming told Kuina some of her experiences with Noel, as well as what she saw on the sea.

Guina felt yearning again.

Before meeting Noel, Wuming only wanted to live and work for the Amazing Birds and Horses. However, since meeting Noel, she was gradually infected by Noel and began to discover and enjoy everything around her.

Because of this, in Wuming's narration, everything was so novel, so interesting, and so exciting. Seeing the sparkle in Wuming's eyes, Kuina couldn't help but become curious about the world outside the village.

Koushiro didn't know what Kuina was thinking, but when he saw the sincere smile on Kuina's face, he felt relieved.

Although Kuina usually smiled, he could tell that her whole body was tense, but now this smile was a completely relaxed smile. Although he didn't know what happened specifically, it was always a good thing.

"In that case, it's time for us to leave."

Noel said.

The exchange with Koushiro was over, and Kuina was back, so there was no reason for them to stay any longer.

At this time, Guina suddenly stood up and bowed to Noel:

"Sir Noel, although it's a bit hard to say this, I request to challenge you again!"

"Oh?"

No one expected that Guina would challenge Noel again. Noel was also a little surprised, but he still nodded happily and said with a smile:

"Of course!"

Guina suddenly raised her head, showing an expression of surprise, "Thank you!"

The venue for the competition was simply set in the inner courtyard.

The two of them got into a stance again, Kuina still had a decent starting stance, and Noel still had that casual look.

"ready, go!"

Kuina did not make any more tests, but directly attacked her head-on. Noel still lowered his strength, avoided her head-on attack, and then counterattacked at the same speed.

This time Guina was not as impulsive as before. Instead, she completely maintained her own rhythm and fought with Noel. She dodged, resisted, and counterattacked with ease, fully demonstrating her true level.

Although this kind of battle is not as exciting as Zoro's violent fighting style, even Zoro himself can see that the gap between him and Kuina is still visible to the naked eye!

Damn it, is this Guy Guina so strong? !

But this time, Guina, who was not blinded by paranoia, quickly discovered that something was wrong, because Noel's attacks began to show some changes, and it became difficult for her to resist frontal resistance.

Is it increased strength?

For this reason, Guina had to adjust her strategy and began to try to avoid direct confrontation with Noel. She mainly focused on dodges and counterattacks, and only resisted head-on when she could not avoid it. This change immediately made her feel much more relaxed.

But soon, Noel's attacks began to become weird again. The tricky attacks coming from all angles made Kuina tired of dodging, and it even became difficult to fight back.

Sauron on the side looked dumbfounded, because after he substituted himself, he found that he might not be able to dodge any of Noel's attacks.

Kuina was still struggling to dodge, and it was getting harder and harder.

Noel's attack was not so fast that it was difficult to react, but as her performance gradually improved, she was able to master it to the point where she had to do her best to avoid it, so her entire body's functions were pushed to the limit.

She gradually became immersed in it and even forgot that this was an ordinary competition.

Finally, Guina's physical energy was drained to the limit, and her movements slowed down visibly. The bamboo knife in Noel's hand also stopped on Guina's head, and then she knocked lightly and said with a smile:

"The competition is over."

"Ha~! Ha~!"

Guina just lay down on the ground, breathing heavily, feeling a little dizzy.

She had never experienced such an extreme battle. Although the battle was over, she still clearly remembered everything that had just happened.

"Remember this battle well. I believe it will help you grow in the future."

Noel smiled, raised his voice slightly and said:

"Also, top swordsmen don't use their eyes to observe when fighting, because they can hear the breathing of everything."

"This sentence is the key point. It will be tested during the battle. Please remember it."

Obviously, this everyone is referring to Kuina and Zoro.

"No need to observe with eyes?"

Zoro looked confused, how should he observe it?

This issue will have to wait for him to find out later.

When Noel looked at Koushiro, he was suddenly stunned for a moment, with an embarrassed expression on his face.

Because Koushiro is their master, it's okay for him to guide them in the battle, but what he said just now is obviously a bit overstepping.

Noel said sarcastically:

"Well, the owner Koshiro..."

"Haha, it's nothing. I believe they will understand sooner or later."

Koushiro smiled, not blaming Noel, which made him feel relieved.

So, now it's really time to say goodbye.

Koushiro and the other three personally sent them to the entrance of the village. Wuming and Kuina whispered for a while, laughed together, and finally looked at each other and said goodbye to each other calmly.

"They will definitely become famous across the sea, right?"

Looking at the ships going away, Kuina said suddenly.

Koushiro nodded and said with a smile: "Judging from Lord Noel's courage and strength, I will definitely do it."

Only Zoro said harshly: "I will definitely teach that guy a lesson next time we meet!"

"Just you? You can't even beat me."

Kuina mocked again.

"Damn it! I want to challenge you to a duel!"

"Haha, you'd better find your way back to the dojo first!"

The two got into a fight.

However, recalling Noel's last words to her, Kuina was a little confused.

What does it mean to tell her not to go to high places?
